The establishment of the Time Travelers Alliance began in the first year of Conan

Chapter 102 [Black] receives a super invincible boost

Lin Sheng decided to start from a realistic perspective.

"We have to try to chip away at the root causes of violent crime so that if that crime is eliminated, it doesn't matter if the death rate is 100 percent."

After secretly glancing at the feedback from the future executive layer, Lin Sheng felt a bit troubled by this.

"As for the emotional crimes..."

Lin Sheng knocked on the table and decided to put this matter aside for the time being.

"Let's put it aside for now. Can we avoid using consciousness-modifying weapons? Or should we? For now, it's hard to predict how reality and the story will react."

Next, Lin Sheng would face the alliance, or rather, the biggest problem he had encountered so far—

"Then there's the question of the accuracy of the intelligence I gave."

Faced with this question, Lin Sheng's expression became very serious.

To be honest, knowing the "plot" really brought great convenience to the development of the alliance.

Whether it is the recent advance prediction of the actions of the people involved in the Maple Leaf Gold Coin case to make an action plan to steal the [cycle].

It was a long time ago that I used the information about Kudo Shinichi being attacked by Gin and forced to drink APTX-4869.

——You know, it was that operation that helped the Alliance obtain samples of time crystals.

It can be said that without the foresight and utilization of the plot in advance, the alliance would not have developed to its current level.

"But now it seems that this convenience may end here, and even if it still exists, there may be some deviations."

Regarding this new discovery, Hitomi Shigenobu tried to explain.

"But currently the Chronology Department and the Narrative Department—"

"Yes, at the moment, the degree of deviation does not have much impact on the so-called 'main plot'. After all, the [story timeline] has just been strengthened for the sake of completeness."

“But who can guarantee that?”

In response to Lin Sheng's question, Shigenobu Hitomi remained silent.

She couldn't guarantee it, the executive and research levels couldn't guarantee it, and even Lin Sheng couldn't.

"Any errors in intelligence will require the Alliance's resources, or even the lives of the task force members, to make up for them!"

"In short, in the future, when developing the storyline within the [Loop], the executive team should take into account more possible factors, especially those related to GSSRA."

And since it's the first day of the dual timeline, the Alliance can also do the fifteenth!

Lin Sheng's next words made Shigenobu Hitomi's eyes instantly sharp.

"Now that we can guarantee our own safety to a certain extent, we must also utilize the influence of [Kudo Shinichi] as we did with the dual timeline!"

"If he can do it in two timelines, then my alliance can do it too!"

To be honest, many people, both at the executive and research levels, have wanted to do this for a long time.

Some kind of fire seemed to be ignited in her pupils, and Shigenobu Hitomi nodded sharply.

A smile mixed with anticipation and a certain enthusiasm appeared on her face.

"Understood! Everything will be done according to your will!"

Lin Sheng sometimes feels that the [cycle] in this world is like the tide.

But just like the fickle tides, just like the tides in Conan's world, it changes at any time with the jumping time in the [loop] and the changing phases of the moon.

Regardless of whether it is a coincidence or it is really time for the next case to happen.

Just when the alliance was planning to take advantage of the fact that it was still the home turf of the [real timeline].

Before the next [cycle] begins, more plans and preparations will be fixed as part of reality.

Only one day later, on the second night, the alliance detected the familiar fluctuation of the RSI value.

When it comes to controlling the stage in real time, the [Story Timeline] is still too slow. Compared to the [Loop], it cannot fully exert its full power.

Now there is a good way to expand the scope of the [cycle] again and advance it again——

[Story Timeline] The hidden [Black Square] was brought out.

...In fact, the more the Alliance tried to collect traces of the [Black Party], the more disgusting the researchers felt about the [Story Timeline].

If the alliance were to select an organization, even with its current strength, it would still be unable to interfere.

That must be the winery.

A long time ago, after keenly sensing the reality and the alliance's movements, the entire winery disappeared from the alliance's intelligence system.

The Narrative Studies Department analyzed the reasons behind this incident and concluded that—

"Based on the intelligence we've obtained so far, the Black Organization is absolutely crucial to the advancement of the [story timeline]."

No matter how long a story is, even to the point of being boring, it must have a "main line".

"According to the intelligence you provided, if the alliance had not appeared, the [Black] side would have definitely held an absolute dominant position."

"Especially from the perspective of the [story timeline], it only constantly strengthens [Black Side] to ensure that [Kudo Shinichi]'s attention is on him."

Regardless of [Gray] or [Red], the alliance and reality cannot change this fact—

It was the [story timeline] that guided the winery to turn [Kudo Shinichi] into Conan.

It's like some kind of trump card or trick.

As long as the alliance cannot solve the winery's problems, the story will never end.

Obviously, this kind of trump card that can ensure a “sure win” in the game must be well protected.

therefore--

"Whether it's through indirect official actions, our comprehensive exploration of the Tokyo underground, or even worldwide scanning with time-lapse cameras."

Still no trace of [Black] was found.

Especially the investigation into Shiho Miyano's secret laboratory located somewhere in Beika Town.

The operational and executive levels have never given up their efforts in this search since the establishment of the alliance.

In the hope of obtaining a method for producing APTX-4869.

"In fact, we can find relevant clues in a sense, but those clues have been 'hidden'."

For the narrative studies department at the research level, they prefer to call this thing "normalization."

It is somewhat similar to something called "anti-meme" that Lin Sheng had seen on a website before he traveled through time.

But it seems a little different.

It is not a "secret to be kept" and it will not cause you to lose your memory or become mentally ill.

But it "has always existed" there.

You can observe it, record it, and if you have a good memory or you have a strong interest in it, you will not forget it.

But you just think it's all "normal".

Just like after the Alliance's investigation, some people in the original police system questioned some details of the cases in the "Loop", like summer after winter, or the sudden change of seasonal clothing, or changes in the surrounding environment.

Everyone will subconsciously ignore these "unimportant" details.

It’s as if someone has put a lock on their consciousness, and any questioning of these details will confuse “normal people”.

If we also add the fact that after the [loop] ends, all these results are fixed on the stage of the [real timeline] as a "background information".

All of this seems so natural under the "normalization" of the "loop" and the "story timeline".

As for Black, the storyline has led to an outrageous level of neglect.

You know, even people wearing TDD can't find it!

You know, logically speaking, being able to discover the existence of the [loop] and using the time perception brought by TDD to discover different alliance members should be able to see and even find the black side!

"Unless the [story timeline] actually fixed this fact for everyone in reality long before the formation of the alliance—"

"Just like what happened when Professor Agasa was 'looped', we can only suspect that the [story timeline] forced one part of matter to 'ignore' another part of matter."

"Based on the results of the Alliance's detection instruments using samples collected from the moon, we can currently confirm that this material neglect occurred before the birth of the solar system."
