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

Chapter 134 Lin Sheng’s struggle with the office!
With Conan truly obtaining the "Judgment of Decision", the "Shinkansen Bombing Case" cycle finally ended.

Almost everyone in the alliance received the "End of Cycle Notice" from the Time Exploration Department on their TDD, and of course, a short text message celebrating the success of the plan was also attached.

more importantly--

"The separation of the two timelines is in progress. Aside from the Time Exploration Department, the Narrative Studies Department, the Timeline Design Bureau of the Chronology Department, the External Liaison Department, and..."

A long list of independent departments, all crucial to the alliance's subsequent plans, came on the air.

"In addition to necessary maintenance and operations, the other departments of the Logistics and Support Layer, the Operations and Protection Layer, and the Research and Exploration Layer will have a three-month rest period in the future."

"At the same time, the executive management hopes that all levels and departments will rationally arrange the order of personnel going to the vacation level and the rest level. Currently, the upper limit of the number of people that can be accommodated in the rest level per cycle day shall not exceed 100,000..."

This is undoubtedly a precious opportunity to take a breather and rest.

Especially the final holiday arrangement, which lasts for three full months!

This is such a luxury!

Even Hitomi Shigenobu couldn't believe her ears at that time. She tried to confirm the accuracy of the vacation time with Lin Sheng again and again.

"Three months? Mr. ZC-01, isn't that a bit too long? If I remember correctly, the shock period caused by the separation of the two timelines reflected not only on the Alliance..."

Lin Sheng's voice appeared in Shigenobu Hitomi's mind, with a sense of relief.

"Actually, I quietly extended everyone's personal TDD timeline a bit."

Then, the hint of relief in Lin Sheng's tone quickly turned into solemnity.

"After all, if my predictions are correct, this may well be everyone's last vacation before the end."

Lin Sheng’s words made Tongzi a little worried, even though she knew that the current alliance would probably find it difficult to provide any substantial help.

"Have you discovered anything? Do you need the Alliance to—"

"Tongzi, don't think like that. In fact, I now find that the Alliance has helped me much more than you imagined."

To be honest, Lin Sheng always felt that some people in the executive level thought he was too omnipotent.

Please! I'm not God!

I'm just a human traveler with a little bit of the "traveler effect", although I'm a little stronger now -

But overall it's still not good enough.

"Anyway, what the league needs now is a break. They've been under too much pressure recently, and things probably won't be as easy as they are now."

Then Lin Sheng's voice became hesitant and a little embarrassed.

"Oh, by the way, today's test asked the CYZ Effect Research Institute to come a little later. My office, uh—"

"It will probably take me a while to get it done. How about you take a month off first?"

For Hitomi Shigenobu, what made her feel most relaxed was not the vacation, but the emotion revealed in Mr. ZC-01's tone.

During this period of time, I only need to shout in my mind to get a response.

However, Shigenobu Hitomi still had the habit of walking to the closed door and making her usual report after knocking on it.

But now her tense mood finally eased a little, because deep down, she had always been worried that ZC-01 would become...

—become like a deity that grants all wishes.

That situation not only made her worried, but even caused some "debates" within the executive level. However, in the end, it was "put on hold" under the forced order of Shigenobu Hitomi.

In short, such a three-month holiday notice was finally issued in the face of disbelief from most members of the executive level.

Although most of them think that this is undoubtedly a waste of time, many people even plan to voluntarily take a month to work overtime to make some plans.

However, the cheers from all levels of the league were real. This vacation message made almost the entire league cheer for this successful action, or in other words, a long vacation.

Except for the departments that were mentioned by name.

They are now like students who are called upon by the teacher to stay after school.

Especially the Narrative Studies Department and the Time Exploration Department——

These two departments have been highly valued since the establishment of the alliance.

"Attention" means no rest.

"Oh no! Oh my god! We have to work overtime again? It's a three-month long vacation!"

"Aren't there weekly and rotating days off?"

"What I want isn't a life where I spend one cycle exploring the forest or camping on the beach, and then return to the research institute the next cycle..."

It was obvious that the researcher's tone was full of resentment.

"A three-month vacation! The guys in the logistics department are already preparing to form a team to explore other star systems. And there's also the External Liaison Department. That's an alien civilization!"

"Don't you want to go and see it? I heard they recently discovered a super cute species!"

Another researcher simply shrugged at his colleague's complaints.

"Yeah, you should know that those things are just 'background'. I really doubt they are at all..."

"Di Di-"

The TDD on his wrist rang. The researcher raised his hand and took a look at the two pieces of information projected into the air on the TDD. His eyes became a little fanatical.

Compared to the holiday, he is now more interested in [Kudo Shinichi] and the symbolism and role of "Judgment of Decision" in the ceremony.

"Listen! The Department of Scientific Logic and the CYZ Alliance Concept Armament Manufacturing Institute are planning to apply during the holiday to see if they can produce some equipment based on the ceremony. If we don't get there first..."

"I know, I know. Ah! More funding!"

But this is indeed very important. After all, the research results of each department are related to the amount of their "funding" -

The funding here does not refer to the arrangement of materials or personnel.

For various departments in the alliance [cycle], "funding" is a technical term that often refers to things that cannot be replicated by time.

And what are those things that were identified as "expenses" by the executive level soon after the alliance moved into the "loop"?

The subjective time of alliance members' TDD experience is reported to the executive level by each department, and Lin Sheng allocates it after review by the executive level.

APTX-4869, needless to say, is a time crystal. Something that can only be produced by the perpetual motion machine in Lin Sheng’s office is definitely a kind of “funding”.

Then there are things related to the "time traveler effect", such as "level vacation time", or materials affected by the time traveler effect, etc.

This is also one of the reasons why Lin Sheng said that the alliance actually helped him a lot.

After all, apart from matters directly related to Conan, Lin Sheng will use his own effects to fight against the dual timelines and the universe regardless of the loss.

If even the future of a proposal like "Which direction to shake the test tube three times in is more in line with the three-choice experimental method" has to be decided directly by Lin Sheng himself—

Lin Sheng could only express that he had had enough.

However, it is certainly exciting that Conan found the first pointer and an element of the ritual returned to its place.

But for Lin Sheng, his first priority now is to fight with his own office——

In other words, at least the RSI value of one's office can be raised to a level that allows researchers to enter after wearing protective equipment.
