Chapter 797 Who said the hero is the one who stands in the light?

Conan looked at Qin Zhibo, with admiration and gratitude in his eyes.

If Qin Zhibo hadn't checked the diary, he wouldn't have been able to regain clues to the organization.

Although it is still unclear who was in contact with Taku Itakura, this unscrupulous behavior is very similar to that of a black organization.

Of course, Conan felt that he had some merit.

If he hadn't asked Qin Zhibo to read the diary, Qin Zhibo wouldn't have discovered the braille on the computer keyboard so easily.

Bar?

In the room, Ryusuke Soma, who looked panicked, shrugged his shoulders and looked on guard.

After a few seconds, he realized that he couldn't explain it clearly, but he showed a relieved expression, gave up his excuses, and explained the process and motivation.

Most of the murder process was as Qin Zhibo speculated, first using sleeping pills to make the person unconscious, and then tying the body with towels and ropes until he suffered a heart attack.

As for the motivation, we have to start talking about it twenty years ago.

Twenty years ago, Ryusuke Soma and Taku Itakura were a pair of good friends who could talk about their dreams over drinks.

Both of them love chess very much, and they have agreed to jointly develop a chess software that can defeat all chess celebrities after they become famous in the future.

In the past twenty years, Ryusuke Soma has continued to provide collected chess records for this goal, and also provided all his assets plus a large amount of loan money to Itakura Taku for research and development funding.

But just three days ago, Ryusuke Soma found out the address of Taku Itakura through the same method as Kogoro Mori, and when he found it, he got this reply.

"He actually said - how many times do you think a person should wait?"

"I have worked so hard in the past 20 years just to design a celebrity-level chess software, and he actually asked me to wait."

"However, it took us 20 years to test each other, which is a bit long."

"If I could go back in life, I would like to go back 20 years ago, to the time when we were young and had the same dream."

Ryusuke Soma slowly raised his head and made an expression like "I have no regrets in my youth."

But just when he was about to raise his hands to welcome the handcuffs handed over by Takagi, a faint voice came from the room.

"Perhaps Mr. Itakura realized the gap and chose to give up his dream?"

The person who spoke was none other than Qin Zhibo.

Ryusuke Soma looked startled and turned to look at Qin Zhibo, "What do you mean?"

Qin Zhibo took a step forward calmly and replied: "Have you heard about the Cocoon game conference held by the American IT giant Sindora a few days ago?"

Ryusuke Soma nodded with some confusion, "Of course I know. It is a feast for the game software industry. As long as you are engaged in this industry, there is no way that you don't know it, right?"

"Well, it seems you only saw the game 'Cocoon' and didn't pay attention to the hijacking incident."

Qin Zhibo turned towards the window and said meaningfully: "Actually, the software you want to design is an artificial intelligence chess-playing software. Through deep learning of a large number of chess records, it can achieve celebrity-level chess-playing abilities."

"But under the same principle, the artificial intelligence designed by Sindora Company - Noah's Ark, not only has intelligence that is no less than that of humans, but also grows faster than humans, not to mention various chess games.

Down."

"With this level of artificial intelligence, no matter what kind of chess software you design, it will be eclipsed."

"Since Mr. Itakura borrowed the chessboard from the hotel, it means that he has not given up research and development. He has just been threatened by someone in recent years and had to develop another software. He has no time..."

"But after seeing the power of Noah's Ark on TV news, Mr. Itakura realized that your persistence for many years was completely meaningless."

"But in the face of you who have invested 20 years of energy, he couldn't open his mouth to say anything to make you give up this dream, so he had no choice but to make this move."

After Qin Zhibo finished speaking, Souma Ryusuke stood completely blank.

It's like a person working hard to learn BB machine repair technology and want to become the best BB machine repairman in the country.

On the day when he was about to receive his diploma, the principal said to him: You'd better not graduate, just continue to study in school.

This man did not understand what the principal meant, so he killed the principal in a rage.

But the real reason behind this is that the communication tools on the market are now replaced by telephones.

People haven’t graduated yet, BB machines have graduated

The gap between Noah's Ark and ordinary chess AI is actually wider than the gap between BB machines and telephones.

Your own AI can play chess, and other people's AI can hijack humans.

How can the light of fireflies compete with the bright moon?

After seeing the stars and the sea, who cares how much water there is in a ladle?

Even if this kind of chess AI is invented now, it will definitely not cause widespread response in the market. At most, it will attract an "Oh" from people in the industry.

Twenty years of dreaming and hard work only yielded an "oh".

In contrast, it is better to choose to continue forever and let youth never end.

Qin Zhibo turned back and continued: "Of course, Mr. Itakura will not let you wait forever. Judging from the contents of his diary, he will leave abroad soon."

"Mr. Itakura would rather you hate him than hate yourself who was the dreamer 20 years ago."

Souma Ryusuke slowly looked at the cold Itakura Taku on the chair, tears of regret flowing from his wide eyes.

"Ah Zhuo! Hey~ Ah Zhuo!"

"is this real?"

"Azhuo——"

Seeing that Ryusuke Soma was losing control of his emotions, Megure quickly asked Takagi to take him away.

With Soma Ryusuke's departure, the system's mission emerged.

[Congratulations on completing the side mission]

[Task settlement rating: A]

[Acquire 500 general skill proficiency]

[Get 170 social credits]

[Rating reward: 500 general skill proficiency]

Nice!

Qin Zhibo felt a little happy in his heart.

The reward rating of the task is A level, and you can successfully get double the rating reward.

In fact, Qin Zhibo could have let Mu Mu take the person away without analyzing the deceased's thoughts.

But Qin Zhibo vaguely felt that analyzing the real thoughts of the deceased and letting the murderer break through the defense seemed to be able to increase the mission rating.

So with the idea of ​​giving it a try, Qin Zhibo expressed his analysis.

Unexpectedly, the case rating actually improved.

Originally, only when the police could dispatch the police normally and find the real murderer before the police arrived at the scene, could they obtain an A-level evaluation.

It seems that the speed of solving crimes is indeed not the only criterion for measuring the rating of side tasks.

One more thing will be added in the future - let the murderer break through the defense.

Conan, who was at a lower position, raised his head and looked at Qin Zhibo, the admiration in his eyes was a bit more than before.

In fact, Conan really didn't expect that there was this layer behind Taku Itakura's true thoughts.

Conan personally had a conversation with Noah's Ark.

Compared with Noah's Ark, which is almost the same as humans, the chess AI does sound much lower, and it is not even a product of the same era.

In order to prevent his companions from being disappointed with their dreams, Taku Itakura actually wanted to bear the crime of betraying his dreams alone.

Who says the hero is the one who stands in the light?

It's a pity that Taku Itakura was killed by his partners before he could leave the country.

Unexpectedly, Taku Itakura died not from an extremely dangerous organization, but from a companion who he had been with day and night. This ending can't help but make people feel sad.

In fact, Taku Itakura's heroic behavior is not only this, but also the software he gave up developing for the welfare of mankind.

Although the black organization would probably kill Itakura Takuya who knew about it afterwards, Itakura Taku thought of this in advance and chose to flee abroad.

But if you think about it differently, Itakura Taku could also directly choose to surrender to the black organization.

If the Kansai man who bought the list of programmers from Mantentian employees is from a black organization, it means that the organization is really hungry for computer talents.

If Taku Itakura wanted to fully join the organization's plan, the organization, which is "thirsty for talents", would not refuse.

Talents are popular wherever they go.

It's just a software developed by Taku Itakura, which seems to be related to the secret of "resurrection of the dead".

What exactly is going on?

Could it be related to the inexplicable drug developed by Haiyuan?

While Conan was holding his chin and thinking about it, Mao Lilan next to him looked down at Conan and couldn't help but ask questions.

"Conan, what's wrong with you?"

"Huh?" Conan turned around, his face full of doubts.

Mao Lilan knelt down and looked at Conan's face, which had regained its childish expression, "Conan, your expression just now was a bit scary."

In fact, Conan didn't have any abnormal expression just now, he was just too serious when he was thinking. At first glance, he didn't look like a child, but like an mature soul lurking in a young body.

Mao Lilan, who had always had little resistance to gods, ghosts and ghosts, felt a little scary now.

"Ah, it's nothing~"

"I'm just learning from Uncle Qin how to be a detective!"

Conan quickly forced himself to explain, and then he managed to pass the test.

Mao Lilan accepted Conan's statement and held Conan's hand like a big sister, "Then let's go home first. It's not too early now. It's time to go back and make dinner."

"Um!"

Conan nodded vigorously, actually thinking about how to seize the hard-won organizational clues tonight.

When he heard about the meal, Qin Zhibo was also a little hungry. He was about to go back with Mao Lilan, but was stopped by Officer Mumu.

"Brother Qin, actually I still have some questions about the murder method in this case."

"Let's do this. You and I will go back to the police station to make a transcript and watch the interrogation of Ryusuke Souma by the way."

In order not to be deceived by criminals and ignore some important criminal circumstances, causing an unfavorable situation at the trial stage, Mu Mu often brings detectives to watch the interrogations.

This is an old trick of Megumi.

Moreover, the case was handled too quickly this time, and Mu Mu's intelligence was still unable to understand the entire process of the murder.

Qin Zhibo thought for a while, and in order to keep his relationship with Mu Mu, he agreed.

When Mouri Kogoro next to him heard this, he didn't mind it and took the initiative to point at himself and asked: "What about me?"

Mu Mu glanced sideways and said, "Then let's go together."

"okay!"

Kogoro Mouri, a former police officer, has always enjoyed taking notes and watching interrogations.

On the way home, golden lanterns lit up one after another, decorating the trees that had lost their greenness in winter with golden "leaves".

Coupled with the scattered light snow, this street scene has a unique charm.

In order to save a lot of taxi fares, Mao Lilan and Conan decided to walk home and enjoy the scenery along the way.

Just walking on the road, the two of them didn't have much conversation.

The corners of Conan's mouth raised slightly, and he was thinking about the clues he just got in the hotel.

Since the last cup door incident, the investigation has finally made some progress.

Although the diary disk was kept by the police as expected, fortunately, I had already read the important information in it.

Next, we need to find Dr. Ali first and discuss countermeasures.

And we must find a way to hide it from Huiyuan, otherwise that guy will definitely stop him again, "Da 咩", "Da 咩咩"

But no matter what, action must be taken before the police announce the death of Taku Itakura.

Whether it's success or failure, it's tonight!

The corners of Conan's mouth rose even more when he thought of the upcoming showdown with the black organization.

Conan would only show such an expression when facing severe challenges.

But at this moment, Mao Lilan, who had been silent next to him, suddenly spoke.

"Conan, let me ask you a question"

"Do you really think people should change?"

Mao Lilan tilted her head 45°, and the snowflakes floated in front of her soft cheeks, making her look extremely poignant.

Conan was startled for a moment, and then he remembered that Mao Lilan might have been affected by the case just now, and he had been through a lot recently, so he quickly comforted her.

"Didn't Uncle Qin say that? Did Mr. Itakura just tell a white lie because he didn't want Mr. Souma's dream to break?"

Xiaolan, I am also a "white lie"!

Mao Lilan tilted her head and looked at Conan, the smile on her face was as gentle as ever, but at this moment, combined with the snowy scene behind her, it revealed a hint of desolation.

"But this feeling of always waiting is really too hard."

Hearing Mao Lilan's heartfelt words, Conan was slightly moved, and continued to comfort him with a smile, "Don't worry, no matter how the world changes, Brother Shinichi will not change."

"So, Sister Xiaolan, you don't have to worry."

Mao Lilan looked at Conan. This little figure has been with him in every crisis since he came to the office.

Even the real Shinichi can only do this.

"If you were Shinichi, I don't know how much better it would be."

As soon as the words were spoken, Mao Lilan quickly wiped the moisture from the corners of her eyes and changed her words: "I am such a fool, what did you say?"

Conan's expression was a little stunned, and he was eager to reveal his identity.

But after a few seconds, he still suppressed such thoughts.

To actually let Xiaolan say such words, it seemed that he had indeed disappeared for a long time, making her wait very hard.

Looks like I have to come to an end tonight!

Conan was thinking seriously, but at this moment, the gentle hand holding him suddenly stopped.

He looked up at Mao Lilan and saw Mao Lilan staring ahead with incredible eyes.

Following Mao Lilan's line of sight, she saw a tall man wearing a black knitted hat walking out of the phone booth with a freshly lit cigarette in his mouth.

Conan was startled for a moment because this man looked familiar.

I seem to have seen him during the bus hijacking incident.

It seems to be called Akai Shuichi?
