Chapter 833 The Strangled Clown (4000)

what's the situation?

Why did the system suddenly start installing “plug-ins”!?

Looking at the system that started loading new functions even after a disagreement, Tang Ze also looked confused.

In the daily system department, I use Soso. I only update the system after I have done something important.

As a result, I upgraded this time just because I wanted to do it?

Although the condition is to complete side tasks to exchange permissions, it would be a surprise to be able to add this function!

This means that Tangze can almost advance all the way in science and technology in the future, without even having to worry about encountering bottlenecks.

While echoing Makise Kurisu's conversation, he checked the exchange list.

After all, if those consumable props can be mass-produced, it will save a lot of destiny points. As for the large amount of funds needed for scientific research, it is not a problem for Tang Ze.

And soon he understood what it meant to be too naive.

On that long list were arranged the various props he had obtained.

But the series of numbers written behind it really made Karasawa's face darken.

The first is the permission coin. After an ordinary branch case is exchanged, it becomes a permission coin, which is the currency in the system.

What made Tang Ze feel bad was that he was digging around when exchanging money, but the price of the items was so expensive.

Although he was mentally prepared for things like gifts and genetic enhancers to be very expensive, when he actually saw them, he felt that this was just squeezing labor.

He even felt that even the world of Kexue, where cases were frequent, might not be able to collect so many branch cases in a short period of time.

With a thought, Tang Ze adjusted the list to the first few props, and it was the two-digit items that seemed most likely to be completed.

The first is the rubber bullet, which only requires one permission coin.

This is easy to understand. After all, this thing is already available, but it can't be equipped with Karasawa's "Detective".

As for the tranquilizer bomb, it requires five authority coins. The flash bomb is a bit exaggerated and requires a full thirty authority coins.

It is understandable that these two bullets are so expensive. After all, they are technically much higher than simple rubber bullets.

Anesthetic bombs are better, they do exist after all, but flash bombs fired from firearms are a black technology that has never been seen before.

And its price instantly soared to a point that was unacceptable to Karasawa.

In response to this, Tangze immediately decided to give up and had no intention of redeeming it.

If you have that kind of time, you might as well get some other props, and it’s not like you can’t buy them with destiny points.

In addition, the [Portable Underwater Breathing Apparatus] is moderately priced, and when combined with the [Micro Oxygen Tank], it only has ten branches in total, so it can be considered a very suitable prop for research and development.

This appropriateness not only refers to the appropriateness of the price, but also for commercial purposes.

Tang Ze does not intend to develop some of the more sensitive lethal technology equipment, which may easily cause unnecessary trouble. He still values ​​civilian use more, so that he can recover funds faster.

At the same time, we should mainly use consumable props produced by the system. This will also leave a lot of destiny points for Tang Ze.

Of course, this change seemed to take a long time, but in fact it only took a short moment to the outside world.

Soon Karasawa came to his senses and started discussing cooperation matters with Makise Kurisu.

The two discussed many details during this process, and finally reached an agreement smoothly, except that a small earthquake occurred, which was considered an extra episode.

Although I haven't mentioned earthquakes before, there are a lot of neons here, and Karasawa often feels aftershocks, so he's used to it.

Of course, compared to the earthquake, Tang Ze was more surprised by the two people's conditions. It wasn't that they asked for too much, but that they asked for too little.

The other party's conditions are also very simple. They only need to support them in researching equipment technology in the high-tech field. The direction can be decided by Tang Ze, and then the two of them will judge the feasibility.

As for other conditions, they only need to be the same as the original ones.

When Tang Ze heard this request, he almost agreed immediately. After all, the other party's request was not difficult at all.

Perhaps for other people, the restriction on the last research direction may be a bit of a grudge. After all, it means the output of a lot of money, and it is unknown whether the results can be obtained to recoup the funds.

It can be said to be a complete gamble.

But for other people's shortcomings, it is exactly what Tangze wants.

After all, the system supports it, so he can't let two people develop daily necessities such as soap and shampoo.

As for the time spent on discussions between the two parties, they often focus on the research progress after the cooperation, etc.

Karasawa also asked Makise Kurisu to talk about how the institute operates, giving him a general understanding.

It’s no wonder that Tang Ze was concerned, after all, it also related to whether his consumables could be used without distress in the future, and Tang Ze also needed to pay attention to this point alone.

"So, where are we going to work next, boss?"

After initially reaching a cooperative relationship, Makise Kurisu smiled and asked Karasawa about the next arrangements. After all, the two of them also needed to know where they would work next.

"Go back to the original research institute. The team you led is not there, so it will be easier to use."

Tangze said with a calm face that stunned the two of them: "Don't worry, it's just a research institute. I bought it!"

Tangze is not afraid that the opponent will not let go. After all, since the opponent has greater strength, it must be the time when the opponent needs time to overcome the difficulties.

The research institute is a place that provides fresh blood for the industry to create new products, but it also requires a lot of money.

I'm afraid that restructuring is just a helpless move. After all, I have many research institutes that have lost their capital chain, and it will be difficult to sell them even if they want to.

But if someone is really willing to acquire it, they will definitely welcome it with both hands.

After all, for them, if their lives are gone now, how can they talk about future development?

And it was precisely because Tang Ze understood this truth that he was so sure that he could buy the research institute.

Even if the other party refuses to agree easily, it doesn't matter. As long as Tang Ze agrees and the Tang Ling Consortium agrees to help him tide over the difficulties, the other party will definitely give away the research institute for nothing.

Of course, there are pros and cons to doing this. The good thing is that the other party, an old brand, will be dependent on the Tang Ling Consortium in the future. The bad thing is that giving a large amount of money to the other party to tide over the difficulties will inevitably affect the future layout.

Of course, there are give-and-takes on both sides, it just depends on the choice.

However, I am very sure that the institute can win.

"Bought it directly..."

Looking at Karasawa calling to explain the bottom line of the negotiation, even Okabe Rintaro was temporarily cured of his "chuunibyou" and became normal.

Seeing the two people's reactions, Tang Ze felt secretly happy after hanging up the phone.

I was given a "Versailles" look by the two of them before, but now I can be considered as "getting back my place".

Isn't the ability to make money just for this time? Anyway, I just made a lot of money, and I will invest in the future, so investing in these is just the right thing.

After Karasawa called Ayako's secretary and explained the matter, Makise Kurisu and the two believed that Karasawa really meant to say this.

This made the two of them feel a little subtle inside.

After all, even they didn't expect that the two of them were just looking for a new job, but they didn't expect that the next job would change their bosses...

But no matter what, this meeting can be regarded as a harvest beyond expectations.

Tang Ze had another discussion with the two of them, but he did not say what specific research he would do in the future. After all, the research institute has not yet been obtained, so these are all false.

On the other hand, Karasawa also needs to complete the side cases and obtain the permission to research the props produced by the system.

However, Tang Ze did not need to worry about being suspected if he provided information to the two of them, because the system did not provide information at all this time, but only provided simple conceptual design drawings.

Of course, his branch lines are not that cheap, and the system also ensures that Rintaro Okabe and the two of them can develop the props.

Tangze didn't know the specific operation, but he thought it was to provide some inspiration to the two of them to help them break through difficulties at critical moments.

This is a bit more real and is the best way to avoid arousing suspicion.

After all, it is a high-tech prop. If you really take out the design drawings all at once, forget it once or twice. Too many times will inevitably make people doubt the source of the data.

As for the research target, Tangze plans to get the "rubber bullet" first. With this thing, Tangze's "detective" doesn't have to worry about basic bullet issues.

After this, of course, there is the [Portable Underwater Breathing Apparatus]. The ten branches are more or less, but if they can be developed, it will definitely be a good thing for Tangze.

Because this thing can not only make money by continuously launching various versions of "low-end versions" on the market, but the most advanced version can also help Tangze replenish his oxygen.

[Micro Oxygen Tank] One tank is worth 500 destiny points, and the remaining four tanks are enough for the lottery. It can be said that Tangze has saved a lot of money.

Just one [portable underwater breathing apparatus] can form a stable leading industry, which is enough to see the benefits brought by these black technologies.

When the two parties said goodbye at the door, the night was already dark, and Tang Ze suddenly realized that so much time had passed without him realizing it.

Of course, this is also because it is approaching winter now, so darkness comes earlier at night.

But just as Tang Ze got in the car and was about to go home, his cell phone suddenly rang.

Seeing the words "Naoki Kamei" on the caller ID, Tang Ze couldn't help but sigh.

He had told the other party before that if he encountered a case, he would contact him in time. Since there was nothing else going on today, the reason why the other party called at this time was naturally self-evident.

After listening to the report, Karasawa first edited a text message and sent it to Ayako, then stepped on the accelerator and drove towards the crime scene.

Because the coffee shop was not particularly far from the crime, although Karasawa only got the news later, Officer Megure and others who followed from the Metropolitan Police Department arrived at the scene of the crime almost at the same time.

But before the three of them could talk, Takagi suddenly looked at the street corner next to him and was stunned for a moment.

Officer Memu looked at Takagi, who was suddenly stunned, and couldn't help but turn around and look in the direction the other person was looking.

"oh?"

"ah?"

"kindness?"

"Eh..."

Among the tonal predicates, except for the second tone which was uttered by Takagi, the rest are interpreted as being uttered by Officer Megure.

And in these few modal particles, there is indeed a complex emotion that can be said to write a thousand-word essay.

To be honest, looking at Officer Megure's expression when he opened his mouth to say something but finally kept silent, Tang Ze really understood the other person's mood at the moment.

Without it, what they met around the corner was not love, but the Death duo who had always been with them.

Yes, what I just saw was the "death partner" of Kogoro Mouri and Conan.

No, perhaps it would be more appropriate to describe it as the Death God elementary school student and his "reasoning stand-in".

"Officer Megure? Why are you here..."

Seeing the police car with its red lights flashing and the ambulance parked nearby, Mouri and Kogoro didn't know what was going on, so they hurried over.

"Now that we have met the Maori detective, let's come up and have a look."

Tangze greeted Conan with his eyes, looked at the two people approaching and said, "We just received a report here, and we haven't had time to go up yet."

"In this case, I, the "Famous Detective" Mouri Kogoro, am obliged!"

After hearing what Karasawa said, Mouri Kogoro straightened his tie and walked over with a serious look on his face. He really looked like he was trying his best.

Of course, discerning people must still know whether this "trying their best" is really helpful or a "disservice"...

After arriving at the room, Tang Ze found that the three informants in the room were dressed in a somewhat "fancy" style.

Rather than saying it’s unique, it’s more like a cosplay that Karasawa is very familiar with.

Based on the self-introductions of several people, Tang Ze also roughly understood the names of the three people.

The one wearing armor is Ishikawa Jiro. His bronze skin makes him look like a handsome sports guy.

The one wearing a sky blue princess dress is Nakamura Yoko, and the handsome guy wearing a pirate costume is named Mijima Mito.

And today they gathered together to celebrate the engagement party of Yoko Nakamura and Jiro Ishikawa.

The deceased, Ms. Umeda, was dressed like a clown.

Of course, she had already lost her voice at this moment.

"The first is death from suffocation caused by compression of the neck. Judging from the marks on the neck, it is likely that the person was strangled."

Asoso squatted beside the corpse and said: "After death, the muscles will begin to harden and become stiff, usually after two hours.

However, if it is in summer or outdoors or in a warm place like this room, the corpse will be generated faster.

But the corpse has not yet produced corresponding symptoms, which means that the time of her death should not have been too long."

"It's half past five now, which means he died about half past four an hour ago?" Tang Ze judged, touching his chin.

"That's right, the time of death is almost around this time." Aso nodded.

When Aso stood up, Mouri Kogoro, who was walking by, was suddenly startled.
