Qin Zhibo got dressed and went out to buy breakfast.
At this time, I happened to meet the landlord of Mima Village, Sugiura, coming back from outside.
"Good morning, Mr. Sugiura, are you going...?"
Sugiura smiled and said, "I just went to send my son to school... By the way, Mr. Qin, how did you sleep here last night?"
Qin Zhibo responded with a polite compliment, "It's very good. This place is very quiet and very suitable for living."
But as soon as he finished speaking, Sugiura was stunned for a moment, with a confused expression on his face.
"Mr. Qin, didn't you hear anything in the yard last night?"
"Forehead……"
Qin Zhibo was in a dreamland last night. Unless the noise outside was particularly loud, it would not disturb his deep sleep at all.
"My sleep may be a little heavy. What is the sound?"
Seeing this, Sugiura quickly smiled and waved his hand, "Forget it, since I didn't hear it, forget it, it's not a big deal anyway... You are busy with your business."
Originally, there was an old man playing demolition next door, and the house here was difficult enough to rent out. Sugiura didn't want to scare away the tenants who had finally moved in.
Even if the detective cannot scare away the tenant who is making noise in the yard late at night, if the problem is not serious, he does not want to make the matter worse and make it impossible for the tenant to continue to live there.
…
Qin Zhibo said goodbye to his landlord and went to a nearby convenience store to buy some food, oden, sandwiches, etc.
He knew that Americans like to drink coffee in the morning, so he bought another large bag of instant coffee.
Back in the apartment in Mima Village, Qin Zhibo heard some sounds coming from Akai Shuichi's room.
Although the sound was very small, Akai Shuichi, who had limited mobility, could never be as calm as before.
"I bought breakfast and put it on the table."
Qin Zhibo shouted toward the door, then filled two cups of coffee with hot water, and drank the coffee while eating sandwiches.
Standing in front of the window of the living room, Qin Zhibo could see Dr. Ali's house on the other side of the wall.
Now that the landlord's son has gone to school, Haibara Ai should also go to school, and it's time for Dr. Ali to get up.
Sure enough, after standing by the window for a while, he saw Dr. Ali wearing pajamas in front of the balcony and yawning widely.
Both of them are engineering night owls, staying up until midnight every day to conduct various scientific researches.
Dr. Agasa is researching messy inventions, while Haibara Ai is mainly engaged in the antidote research of APTX-4869, and occasionally helps Dr. Agasa.
But in the morning, Haibara Ai usually gets up early, makes breakfast, and then goes to meet the people of the Youth Detective Team and go to school together.
Dr. Agasa is not good at cooking, and he is too old to stay up late, so he wakes up slowly every day after Haibara Ai goes to school.
Looking at Dr. Ali who had just woken up and had breakfast, Qin Zhibo sighed in his heart.
It would have been better if I had adopted Hui Yuan Ai...
Haiyuan Ai is quite popular in the circles around here, and Cheng Shi has always wanted to adopt Haiyuan Ai.
But Haibara Ai didn't want to implicate the black organization's affairs to Cheng Shi, and always refused this matter.
But in fact, the last time the FBI used Chengshi Hospital as a base to imprison Belmode, Chengshi was already implicated.
However, Belmode did not think of ways to retaliate against Cheng Shi. He probably felt that Cheng Shi was a minor character controlled by the FBI and was not worth mentioning.
Moreover, now that the organization has lost the mainstay of Gin, it will not be easy for the newly appointed Scotch to become another "Gin".
But what did Toru Amuro think when he learned that his former partner was now working for the organization?
His attitude is important now.
…
Qin Zhibo retracted his thoughts, finished the sandwich in his hand, drank the coffee in one gulp, and came to the door of Akai Shuichi's room.
"I have something to leave first. Around noon or afternoon, the man you saw yesterday will move here."
"you……"
Qin Zhibo wanted to say something else, but his words stopped abruptly.
Although Akai Shuichi has lost his memory, he has his own judgment ability. He repeated it too many times, but it seemed that he was trying to brainwash him.
For this kind of person, if you don't restrict his thinking and actions, you can actually gain his mental stability.
So before leaving, Qin Zhibo did not lock the door.
As long as Akai Shuichi wants to leave, he can leave at any time.
Arriving at the landlord's house in 201, Qin Zhibo entrusted his key to the landlord and told him that a dark-skinned young man would come to pick up the key today.
The landlord suddenly realized, "So Mr. Qin, you don't live here?"
"Well, I just rent a house for others." Qin Zhibo comforted, "But don't worry, the people living here are my disciples, amateur detectives, and reliable characters."
After hearing this, the landlord breathed a sigh of relief.
These days, it’s really hard to find a reliable tenant.
If a murder occurs in the apartment, my apartment in a prime location in a wealthy area will become a worthless haunted house.
Their family still has to rely on this apartment to make a living~
…
After leaving the apartment building, Qin Zhibo went back to the office, fed Jerry, and took out a long-cherished floppy disk from under the floor on the third floor.
This floppy disk was the software originally developed by Itakura Taku for the black organization.
Itakura Taku refused to hand over the software to the organization on the grounds that the software might affect the well-being of all mankind, and was preparing to flee overseas.
But before he could escape overseas, the killing buff of Rice Flower Town was applied to him, and he was killed by his partner in an irrelevant project 20 years ago.
Qin Zhibo used psychic skills and asked Bixian questions to find out the password to open the software.
Opening the software, this software turns out to be a packet capture software that intercepts special signals on the network.
This software can grab a "green signal" from the Internet and place it on any device.
And this green signal is exactly the green tentacle that appeared in the game at the launch of the "Cocoon" game.
Itakura Taku called this strange green signal "Krasin".
At the final stage of the "Cocoon" game conference, Qin Zhibo handed the prop [Destiny Coin] to Mao Lilan for use, and accidentally summoned the "King in Yellow", allowing all players to escape safely.
But Hiroki Sawada, an artificial intelligence, was not so lucky and was captured by the embodied tentacles of the "Green Signal".
Qin Zhibo made a vow at that time to save Sawada Hiroki.
From that time to now, although from Qin Zhibo's sense of time, a long time has passed, in fact, the "Cocoon" game conference happened last week.
When taking the "Sunflower" flight back to Japan, Qin Zhibo asked Suzuki Sonoko about the repair status of the Cocoon game console.
Suzuki Sonoko said that thanks to the overtime efforts of Suzuki Consortium engineers, the repair of the game program has been basically completed.
It's a pity that even if the game is repaired, this next-generation full stealth game has been boycotted globally after the accident. It is classified as a technologically immature product and cannot pass the safety tests of various countries. Its launch is far away.
.
Therefore, the game project that the Suzuki Consortium spent a lot of money on can now only be provided internally for its own people to play.
Qin Zhibo plans to use the adventure game in "Cocoon" to restore the scene at that time and then rescue Hiroki Sawada.
Today happened to be the time I had agreed with Suzuki Sonoko to "play games".
…
Half an hour later, Qin Zhibo drove to a nine-story blue-gray building.
Although this building is inconspicuous in highly urbanized Tokyo, it is indeed the R&D department building of the Suzuki Foundation.
It is already very good for a consortium that focuses on real estate and tourism to build a building specifically for research and development.
Today is a school day and Suzuki Sonoko is not here, but a project leader came out to receive Qin Zhibo.
"Hello, I am the person in charge of the Cocoon project, and my name is Shunsuke Suzuki."
"Miss Yuanzi has already told us that you are coming to experience the 'cocoon' today. Welcome, welcome..."
Qin Zhibo was stunned when he heard the surname "Suzuki", but then he thought about it. Suzuki is a common surname in Japan. The surname Suzuki does not mean that he is related to the Suzuki family.
Shunsuke Suzuki took Qin Zhibo into the elevator and went straight to the top 9th floor.
In the elevator, Shunsuke Suzuki introduced his identity. In addition to being the current person in charge of the "Cocoon" project, he is also the junior student of the previous person in charge of the "Cocoon" project, Tadahina Kashimura.
At the last press conference, before the game officially started, Tadahin Kashimura was killed by an unknown killer. The murderer has not been found so far.
But Qin Zhibo could probably guess that the black organization was responsible for the manipulation at that press conference.
People from the black organization had unknowingly infiltrated Sindora Company just to interfere with the press conference.
As the project leader, Tadabin Kashimura has the entire safety protection of the "cocoon" under his sole management.
The lurking personnel arranged by the black organization, whether they copy the core program of "Cocoon" through external devices or drop viruses that attract green signals, will all be discovered by Tadaki Kashimura.
Therefore, the killers of the black organization struck first and killed Tadabin Kashimura in the basement before the game officially started.
Moreover, the chairman of Sindora Company, Sindora himself, was killed in the control room, and the other employees in the control room were missing.
The ultimate beneficiary of this incident was actually the black organization.
…
"Here we are, Mr. Qin, this is our project research and development department."
Compared with the huge site of the press conference, the R&D department is much smaller, occupying an area of only 400 square meters.
But in fact, the Suzuki Consortium did not develop anything here. It mainly focused on repairing the old technology left by Sindora Company.
Since Syndora went bankrupt, Sindora's shareholders collectively decided to mortgage the "complete stealth technology" to the Suzuki Consortium.
Shunsuke Suzuki brought Qin Zhibo to the familiar "Cocoon" game console and introduced.
"In order to avoid the situation like last time, we installed a voltage protection chip inside the game console to ensure that the external power supply will not harm the player's brain under any circumstances..."
"This is hardware-level protection. Even artificial intelligence Noah's Ark will never be able to break it."
Noah's Ark has disappeared from the Internet for some time, but engineers from the Suzuki Consortium still regard it as an imaginary enemy.
"In addition to the upgrade of the game console, we have also made new upgrades on the game itself."
"Now the outside world can customize the player's body values in the game. The data that can be adjusted currently include strength, speed, and flight ability, so that players can ensure their own safety when facing extreme situations..."
As he talked, Shunsuke Suzuki felt like he was talking nonsense.
This is like knowing that something will happen in the game, and then giving the players the ability to protect themselves.
Because the house may collapse, the developer asks the residents to practice golden bell shield and iron cloth shirt in advance?
What the hell?
So who dares to go in and play?
Just when Shunsuke Suzuki wanted to correct his statement, Qin Zhibo laughed openly.
"Haha... in short, is God mode turned on?"
"God mode?" Shunsuke Suzuki was stunned for a moment, confused as to what he meant.
Qin Zhibo explained: "Having unparalleled strength and speed, and being able to fly in the sky, isn't it like God? Isn't this God mode?"
"If you don't want to add religious elements, you can also call it 'creative mode'."
"Oh~" Suzuki Shunsuke's eyes widened, and his world view was refreshed.
It turns out it can be explained this way...
Qin Zhibo was naturally the happiest person when he learned that the game had added "God Mode".
Although you can't add and delete items at will like Minecraft, the buffs of strength and speed, as well as the ability to fly, are indeed a great help to you.
Coupled with the ability of [Oath Keeper Sword] to slay evil spirits and heretics, it can be said that this battle is inevitable for me!
"Mr. Suzuki, please turn on the 'God Mode' for me first..."
…
Waiting for the game to be officially played, it will take some time for debugging.
While the staff was busy, Qin Zhibo quietly walked to an unoperated computer and plugged Itakura Taku's software into the host computer.
All the computers here use a network server. As long as one computer uploads and runs the software that captures the "green signal", it can ensure that the "Cocoon" game console can be infected again.
And the "green signal" will not have much impact on people at once when there is a screen across the screen. After all, the last game screen was made public.
After transferring the software and clicking Run, Qin Zhibo put away the floppy disk.
At this time, a staff member came to inform.
"Mr. Qin, 'Cocoon' is ready."
"Okay, here I come."
Under the watchful eyes of many engineers, Qin Zhibo first signed a liability exemption agreement and then was arranged to sit in the only game cabin.
When sitting on the sofa in the cockpit, a familiar feeling arises spontaneously.
Link Start!
As the screen in front of him suddenly became colorful, Qin Zhibo felt dizzy and his consciousness quickly fell into a coma.
When he woke up again, the surrounding environment had turned into a square surrounded by darkness.
