Chapter 367 Going Home
Chapter 367 Returning Home
"Ah!!! It feels so good to be home! I'm back!" That afternoon, because I skipped classes, I declined the children's invitation to investigate together and took Shiho back to El Cattras. As soon as I entered the house, I couldn't help but stretch my body. I shouted to my family. If Xiaolan and my father made me feel the warmth of home when I was at home, then now that I'm back in El Cattras, I feel extremely relaxed here, because only here, I don't have to be nervous and vigilant about the people around me, and only here, there is a gentle person like Jingliu who is always waiting for my return.
"Welcome back, Bing~" As expected, after I called out, Jingliu appeared in my sight. She was still wearing a simple dress, but it showed her perfect figure to the fullest. Seeing me coming back, Jingliu was like a young swallow throwing herself into my arms. . Well, well, I was the one who threw herself into my arms, but I was just passive.
Jingliu came over and held me in her arms. The fullness of her chest once again covered my face, and the long-lost feeling of suffocation filled the happiness I once had.
“Wuwuwu..I’m panicking. Wuwuwu..Let go..Uh…” I was defeated.
"Bing, why did you come back today? I thought you would be a few days late?" After some fun, Jingliu pulled Shiho and me into the room. After filling the room with fruits and snacks, Jingliu sat next to me and started asking questions.
"Well... because of something that happened." I picked up an apple and took a big bite. The sweet juice instantly burst in my mouth. Sitting at home, I felt that the apple was sweeter. "Normally, I should have gone to class today. But because of a case, we... no, the police called these naughty kids to a meeting. After that, several kids had to go investigate the case, so Shiho and I took the opportunity to come back. If nothing goes wrong, we can probably stay for two or three days."
"Eh? So long? Is everything okay back home?" Jingliu picked up a tissue and gently wiped my lips.
"It's okay. I've already asked for leave from school. I told my dad and Xiaolan that I need to go home for a while." I responded. "And I'm not just coming back to take a look. Shiho needs to start working on the pharmaceutical factory, and I also need to talk to Shoulang about the recent work problems."
"Work? Have you done any tasks recently?" Jingliu frowned and tried hard to recall what I had done recently, but neither I nor Ningxue had received any information about any tasks. Of course, I was not counting the tasks that Ningxue and the others had sent around.
"Not yet, there are other things." So, I told Shiho and I what I saw and heard in the Twin Towers yesterday.
"Biotechnology... this is no small matter." After listening to my explanation, Jingliu tapped her red lips with her fingers and said in silence for a moment. "If it is just a facial scanning program, it is not difficult to simulate the appearance ten years later. After all, it is just a simulated growth and it is not real. But it failed in Shiho and Kudo. We can regard it as a coincidence, but if Gin also appears there, then this coincidence may not be a coincidence. However, even biotechnology requires the extraction of genetic DNA, right? When did you..."
"Maybe it's a fingerprint?" Mingmei, who had been sitting quietly on the side, said after thinking for a moment.
"It is indeed very likely as my sister said." Shiho took over the conversation, "The organization's fingerprint unlocking and iris unlocking technology are mature. In order to prevent the organization's information from being exposed, the organization has recorded everyone's fingerprints. I remember there was a semi-transparent area of black glass on the armrest of our seat. If it was there, the fingerprint search would have found my fingerprint. In order to prevent information leakage, the toy automatically blocked my data. After all, it was something that would take pictures, and Kudo might have caused the machine to automatically pop up an error display because he was after me."
"If that's the case..." Jingliu looked at me who had raised my hand, and finally smiled bitterly. "Indeed, Bing has no fingerprints. So he was scanned and a growth simulation was made."
"But if this thing is really made by the organization, then what is the point of making such a toy?" I stretched out my hand and rubbed my fingertips, questioning.
"Collecting information." Shiho said again, with a hint of gloom between her brows. "Collecting information on civilians is not just for large companies like this. Some medical institutions and scientific and technological institutions have more or less such hidden things. As long as they get fingerprints and the documents required to enter and exit large places, the organization can easily grasp everyone's whereabouts. Although this thing in the Tokiwa Building may be a toy, this toy must be finally reviewed and identified by senior people. So it is estimated that at least 80% of the people in the Tokiwa Zaibatsu from top to bottom have been entered into this machine. Not to mention fingerprint clock-in machines and the like."
"No wonder the organization's database is so huge." I frowned slightly. Doesn't that mean the organization has also recorded the fingerprints of my father and Xiaolan? This time, I can't let it be exposed!
"And if my guess above is correct, then when I sat on it this time, maybe the organization had received the information the moment I was blocked. At least the information has been entered into the database of Tokiwa Building."
hum!
Shiho's words made my head buzz. If it was true, then Gin had obtained the information that Shiho had become smaller? However, this doubt was quickly dispelled. Yes, Shiho should not have been exposed, otherwise Gin would not have appeared at the bottom of the building at that time, but would have brought people to kill directly.
Giving Shiho a reassuring look, I said, "It probably hasn't been exposed yet, but what Shiho said is very likely, we have to solve this hidden danger quickly." After saying that, I took out my phone and called Xunji.
"Mr. Mingya?" Yato answered the phone. Ever since I came out of the building, I have recruited the Swift Team to help me keep an eye on the entrance of Tokiwa, after all, Gin showed up this time.
"How is it?" I asked directly.
"Nothing unusual, no suspicious people so far." In a hotel near the Twin Towers, Yato was watching with binoculars. "Iron Bear didn't find anything under the Twin Towers either."
"Well, sneak in tonight and hack into Tokiwa's main database. I'll let Ningyue assist you. Can you do it?"
"Of course." Yato's voice was very sure.
"Okay, that's it." I hung up the phone. I can't say I'm as confident in the duo of Xunji as I am in the Ning sisters. It may be because Ye Ya was brought up by Shou Lang, while Xunji was recruited halfway. But fortunately, they can get the job done, and that's enough.
"No, I'm still a little worried." I hung up the phone, thinking with a worried look. "Shiho, do you think Yuan Jiaming will get the news? He is the chief engineer."
"If he is a member of the organization, then it makes sense that he made and managed the machine." Shiho put down the tea she had just picked up before she could drink it. "For safety reasons, let's go back. If there are people in the organization inside Tokiwa, Hara Yoshiaki is now the biggest suspect and needs to be investigated."
"It's okay. There's no place safer than here." I smiled at Shiho. "Let Ningxue do it. Just go and gather intelligence. It will be safer for us not to show up."
———————————Detective Conan the Movie 5 & Countdown to Heaven——————————
That night, Alcatraz welcomed a special guest.
"Wow... Bing, this is your home... Pah, your island?!" Under the night sky, the brightly lit port looked exceptionally vast. A young man shouted at the sea with great amazement.
"Aha!!!!"
"Not only is my island, but the sea area where your roar can spread is also mine." I scratched my ears. "No, Kaito, have you never seen the sea? Even though you are afraid of fish."
"I have seen it, but I always feel that the sea I saw is different from the one you have here." Kaito scratched his head.
"Maybe it's because there's no one here yet. There's an essential difference between public and private ownership."
Yes, the person who came was Kaito. Last time I asked him to bring something for me, and today he was free, and Kaito had finished his work, so I asked him to deliver it directly. It happened that Kaito had been more restrained these days in order to avoid Hakuba, and he suddenly received an invitation to an island, so he gladly took the boat to come here.
"Where's the stuff?" I stretched out my hand to Kaito. "Oh, here it is." Kaito, who was dressed in casual clothes, took a bag from Grandpa Terai Huangzhisuke beside him and handed it to me.
"...Can't it be made black?" Looking at the things in the bag, I stared at Kaito with disdain.
"Black symbolizes the crow, and white symbolizes the dove. Which one do you think I would choose?" Kaito's eyes were full of teasing.
"I remember that in Area 11, crows are a symbol of good luck." Scratching my head, I gave up worrying about Kaito's preferences. "Let's go to the core area. This broken island is still under construction. There are construction sites everywhere, except for the core area." I waved to Shizuka who was standing not far behind me, and asked her to get in the car and lead the way. Kaito and I sat in the car that Shizuka and I had just driven in, and took Kaito to see the scenery along the way. Of course, I was the one who just drove here, and now of course it's me.
"There's construction going on everywhere, Bing... How much money did you invest here in one go?"
"Sixty-seven hundred...almost seven hundred billion." I thought about it and gave this number.
"You...you've already caught up with the country's GDP for more than half a year, right?" Kaito was so surprised that his tongue was tied.
"It may also alleviate the labor, economic, and housing problems of tens of thousands of people in the future." I reached out and touched my nose. "Do you think I should be awarded an award for outstanding citizen?"
"I've done you a favor by not causing you any trouble for building your own city." Kaito narrowed his eyes and looked at me. "By the way, is that beautiful woman in front of you your...sister?"
"Your future sister-in-law." I didn't even look at Kaito, but just stared at the night view outside the window silently.
"The future... the young lady in the doctor's house is..."
"Too."
“…” Kaito was speechless.
"Don't just blame me. Aren't you also developing on two fronts, Qingzi and Hongzi?" I joked.
"Don't be ridiculous." A drop of cold sweat appeared on Kaito's forehead. "Aoko and I are just friends."
"So you acknowledge Hongzi?"
"No, no!" Kaito shouted helplessly. "I can't afford to offend that little witch Hongzi. But she doesn't seem to bother me much recently. Although she occasionally complains about me in front of Aoko, her intention to deal with me has changed a lot."
"Because of the spider?" I thought of the killer who almost took Kaito's life.
"Maybe, but actually, I think she's more interested in you."
"Me? You're the only person I've ever met with her." I shook my head. "If it weren't for you, I would have shot her a long time ago."
"Ahem..." Old man Terai who was driving in front coughed twice. He had also heard about me from Kaito. Although he was disgusted with my behavior and principles, due to the relationship between Kaito and me, the old man could only advise his young master to have as little contact with me as possible.
"Okay, okay, she is my classmate after all, and she has indeed helped me. There is no need to take her life." Kaito said hurriedly.
"Just kidding." I raised the corners of my mouth slightly. "In fact, I also have something to ask her."
"Oh?"
"I heard that she is quite good at fortune-telling. I would like to get some similar hints from her."
"Then, I'll help you make an appointment with her?"
"Wait for a while." I thought for a while and said, "Wait for a while, I will personally..."
【So Thank You For Everything,ここから変わり开める.真っすぐな道などないと気づいた强さ见つけた. . . 】
Before I could finish my words, a pleasant music started playing on my cell phone.
"Axue?" I looked at the number on the phone and frowned slightly. Ningxue calling at this time is probably not a good thing. And... Could something have happened?
"Speak." I lowered my voice and uttered one word.
"Mr. Mingya." Ningxue's voice sounded, and my heart calmed down a little. She was not in danger. But her next words made my heart rise again.
"Yuan Jiaming was killed."
"what?!"
I'm out! I've been waiting for so long and finally got released! Thank you, Qidian.com! Please stop blocking me. I can't read any chapters on Penguin. My account number has not changed. It's still the same as before.
