The Daily Life of a Salted Fish Assassin in Anime Crossovers

As for the Mika Art Museum, it can serve as a testing ground. Jiang Hang's current security requirements for the Mika Art Museum are that even if he is not present, the person must be qualified to fight against an opponent of the level of Phantom Thief Kid.

All those who have completed assassin training can use stealing designated items from the Beika Art Museum as their "graduation test".

Jiang Hang has already made arrangements for the future development of the Brotherhood, while Dr. Agasa, upon hearing that Jiang Hang plans to take away the Animus for improvement, couldn't help but show a hint of regret on his face.

After all, both the technology inside the instrument and the long-lost vitality he felt in his youth in his past memories were things he found hard to part with.

Seeing that Professor Agasa was almost becoming the world's number one loyal fan of the Animus, Jiang Hang comforted him for a while and said that as long as the Foundation resolved the potential side effects of the Animus and increased production, he would definitely send Professor Agasa an Animus 2.0.

Of course, it's really hard to say when that "at that time" will actually happen.

Unless the system sends him three or five devices like those from the later Assassin's Creed games that use cloud technology to avoid the bleeding effect on users, and can even be used commercially, Jiang Hang will not feel comfortable giving this thing out to too many people as long as the Animus can still cause the bleeding effect.

Dr. Agasa also knew that technological improvements were not something that could be achieved overnight, and that it might be several years before they saw the improved Animus again.

However, Professor Agasa's character is undoubtedly impeccable. Even though he was still thinking about using the device to experience the vitality of his youth, since Jiang Hang needed it now, he immediately put the Animus away so that Jiang Hang could take it with him. He didn't even ask Jiang Hang to experience the Animus one last time.

After explaining the Animus situation to Professor Agasa, Jiang Hang followed Shiho Miyano to her laboratory and whispered a reminder to her.

"Keep an eye on Professor Agasa these next few days. Although he hasn't experienced many side effects from using Animus, it's not a good thing for him to dwell on his past."

Animus can make people feel like they've returned to their youth by reading their memories of their younger days. In a sense, Animus can be considered a time machine.

The idea of ​​staying young forever may not be very appealing to young people, since they are already in the prime of their lives and believe they have plenty of time to squander.

However, as bodily functions decline with age, when you start to pant after just a few steps of jogging and have to get up several times a night, the allure of staying young becomes stronger and stronger.

The founder of the brewery, Karasuma Renya, was over ninety years old when he was unwilling to die. So, he made a tough decision to disband the Karasuma Group, the culmination of his life's work, and go underground to conduct various human experiments in an attempt to extend human lifespan.

That's why APTX4869 became a project he valued immensely.

Of course, Professor Agasa's personality wouldn't lead him to do anything extreme. He knew that the Animus only brought illusions, and he hadn't used the Animus for long enough to develop symptoms of psychological addiction.

Therefore, he will only be depressed for a day or two at most. As long as he cooks more of his favorite dishes during these days, he will probably recover his spirits soon once he gradually forgets about Animus.

Just as Jiang Hang finished reminding Shiho Miyano and was about to leave, Shiho Miyano suddenly called out to him.

"Does that mystery gift you mentioned before still count?"

Jiang Hang was stunned for a moment before he remembered that a few days ago in Kyoto, he had indeed said that whoever found the Buddha statue would receive a mysterious gift from him.

With cases piling up these past few days, and Shiho Miyano not mentioning it, Jiang Hang had almost forgotten about it.

He scratched the back of his head somewhat awkwardly and asked Shiho Miyano, "Of course I mean what I say, but is there anything you particularly want right now?"

"Can you extract my parents' memories from my DNA?

Chapter 397: Chapter 393: Fifty-six thousand hostages!

Hearing Shiho Miyano's words, Jiang Hang paused for a moment before nodding uncertainly.

“Normally there should be no problem. If DNA is extracted from you, then at least your mother’s memories before she became pregnant with you can be extracted. If you have DNA samples left by your parents, you should be able to obtain even more detailed memories.”

"However, you just heard what Professor Agasa said. He used his own DNA to conduct experiments, and his memories of his parents' generation were already very vague and fragmented. I can't guarantee that I can extract too many useful memories from your DNA."

Shiho Miyano shook her head slightly, indicating that she didn't care about such things.

“I understand. After I transport the Animus away, I will take you there to extract your memories. I will also invite your sister along, so that the memories extracted from the two of you can be combined. Even if the memories are incomplete, they can complement each other a little.”

Having gotten the answer she wanted, Shiho Miyano made no further comment. In any case, she wasn't in a hurry and could wait a few days.

Keeping this in mind, Jiang Hang said goodbye to Professor Agasa after leaving Shiho Miyano's laboratory, and then called over his golden eagle Altaïr, which was resting in the yard, to take it home.

Having not seen its owner for a week, Altaïr seemed slightly annoyed with Jiang Hang. It perched on Jiang Hang's arm and gently pecked at Jiang Hang's head with its beak, even plucking a few strands of hair from his head.

Although Jiang Hang is still young and his hair is still thick enough, he dares not let Arter peck him anymore. If he continues to peck at him like that, he will face a midlife crisis in a few years.

It's unclear whether the Assassin bloodline has the ability to regenerate hair, but considering Cassandra's hair volume remained strong throughout the game, from pre-Christian era to the modern era, the Isu people's technology in the Assassin's Creed universe should be able to solve this problem.

In short, after communicating with Altaïr, Jiang Hang had it fly back to the agency to wait for him to return.

It has to be said that after several cases and the last time it was promoted on television, the name of the Pioneer Agency has spread throughout Japan.

Nowadays, the firm receives commissions from all over the country almost every day.

We haven't been open for a week, and we've already accumulated about ten cases.

Carrying this bundle of letters of commission back to the office, even though Shizuka Sakaki and the others had gone home to rest today, these were still invitations from clients all over the country, so they still had to take a look.

Most of the cases were taken a look by Jiang Hang, and after confirming that they were not important, he temporarily put them aside.

The only request came from Tottori Prefecture. Not only was the letter of request unusually cryptic, it simply invited him to come to the address on the letter next Saturday, and the details of the request would be discussed in detail upon arrival. It was also quite cliché, as it didn't care whether Jiang Hang was willing to accept the request or not, and directly included a commission fee of 500,000 yen in the letter of request.

Jiang Hang's eyelids twitched involuntarily as he looked at the 500,000 yen in the letter of authorization.

According to general practice, such commissions that require upfront payment are almost always destined to cause serious problems.

Sometimes in mystery stories, there's a plot like this: the detective didn't want to take the case, but because the client sent the money ahead of time without any explanation, the detective had to travel a long way to the client's address to return the money. However, shortly after arriving, a series of murders occurred, forcing the detective to stay and look for clues about the killer.

Thinking of this, Jiang Hang went to investigate the address on the letter of authorization. Sure enough, it was another desolate mountain wilderness, far from any village or shop. It would probably take half a day to drive from the station in Tottori Prefecture to get to the other party's house.

Although this has not happened yet, Jiang Hang felt that there was at least a 70% or 80% chance that it would happen.

"Forget it, since the commission is for next week anyway, let's see if we can find the client's contact information in advance and find out the specific details of the commission. If not, we can just make another trip then."

Although the case looked complicated, Jiang Hang felt he still had to go if a murder might actually occur.

Jiang Hang placed the commission letter on his desk, intending to have Shizuka Sakaki and the others investigate it the next day, before continuing to look at the remaining commission letters.

The remaining letters of authorization were unremarkable, but several invitations were mixed in with them.

Invitations to some charity galas, and also invitations to memorial services for some deceased famous directors.

Receiving these invitations wasn't too surprising for Jiang Hang. After all, he owned an art museum, two film and television companies, and a small cinema. He was also a well-known detective, so there were bound to be many people who wanted to get to know him through such occasions.

Jiang Hang immediately threw these invitations into the trash can.

He had no interest in these things and had no intention of associating with the so-called high society.

Rather than attending these pointless gatherings, Jiang Hang would much rather resolve one more case.

After finishing up the week's work at the agency, Jiang Hang planned to relax for a while and then meet with Yusuke Sakata that evening.

Now, Yusuke Sakata has been arranged to learn disguise and camouflage techniques at the Beika Art Museum. I wonder if Yusuke Sakata is getting used to living in Tokyo.

No sooner had he opened the game than Conan called. Upon seeing the caller's information, Jiang Hang immediately perked up.

Conan doesn't usually call him unless there's a case, and he only calls after a case has occurred to tell him to come and collect the mission reward.

If you cooperate with Conan a little at the crime scene, you can get a fresh mission reward.

Jiang Hang naturally wouldn't let such an easy task and reward go to waste.

Without saying a word, he answered the phone.

As expected, Conan is still Conan the Grim Reaper. Jiang Hang encountered a serial murder case in Osaka these past few days, and Conan kept a low profile for a few days. But today, as soon as Jiang Hang returned to Tokyo, he pulled off a big stunt.

"Have you gone back to Tokyo?" Conan asked Jiang Hang this question as soon as they came up, his tone sounding somewhat anxious.

Jiang Hang had only told Conan that they would spend two days in Osaka and then come back. After that, there was nothing for them to exchange information about immediately, so they naturally didn't contact each other again.

Because of the police's deliberate cover-up, Conan probably doesn't even know about the serial murders happening in Osaka yet.

"I just got back at noon today, and I'm just at my office now. Why is it so noisy over there? Where are you right now?" Jiang Hang asked curiously as he listened to the cheers coming from the other end of the phone.

"I'm at the National Stadium right now. If you don't have anything urgent to do, come over right away. It's a matter of life and death!"

Conan quickly explained the situation to Jiang Hang, who was quite taken aback.

In short, today is the J1 League, Japan's biggest football league, and it's a crucial match that will determine this year's league champion. Conan has secured several good seats in this match, which could potentially clinch the league title early, because he previously helped a key player on one of the teams.

Then Conan took the Junior Detective League kids to watch a ball game after school this afternoon.

Just minutes into the game, Conan discovered that a spare soccer ball in the stands had been shot and destroyed by a pistol.

“The staff at the scene didn’t believe me, so I called you for help after I found the bullet fragments.”

If Conan had Ran and Kogoro Mouri by his side, he probably wouldn't be calling right now.

However, Kogoro Mouri wasn't interested in the ball game, and Ran didn't come either because of her club activities.

Aside from calling Inspector Megure, Conan can only ask Jiang Hang for help now.

Compared to going directly to Inspector Megure, it's obviously more reliable to go to Jiang Hang first.

After hearing Conan's description, it's clear that this case is indeed quite tricky.

According to him, there are at least 50,000 to 60,000 people in the National Stadium now. If the murderer is a serial killer, then all 50,000 spectators in the stadium will become the murderer's hostages!

If the armed assailant was not acting alone but in a group, the situation would only be worse.

Based on the current situation, this is highly likely.

"Wait for me for fifteen minutes, I'll be right there," Jiang Hang said, then whistled after hanging up the phone, preparing to head off to work with Arter.

With a venue that can hold more than 50,000 people, if he were to scan through each person one by one with Hawkeye, who knows how long it would take to find the real culprit. In this situation, having the extremely intelligent Altaïr do the initial screening would definitely be much more efficient than him directly using Hawkeye to eliminate possibilities.

On the way, Jiang Hang didn't forget to take a moment to call Inspector Megure and explain Conan and the others' discovery.

Who knew that Inspector Megure was also on his way to the stadium?

Just moments ago, the director of the live football broadcast on Nichiuri TV received a threatening phone call demanding that they prepare 50 million yen in cash immediately, or they would indiscriminately shoot at the spectators inside the football stadium.

This potentially dangerous act was reported to the police by the Nichiri TV station, and was naturally handed over to Inspector Megure, the First Investigative Division, to handle immediately.

"Conan and his friends were at the scene, and they were the first witnesses to the criminal shooting the soccer ball," Inspector Megure thought, never expecting such a coincidence.

Inspector Megure has dealt with the Detective Boys several times now, and he's always had a headache dealing with these kids who never listen to reason and only stay quiet for a few days before starting to cause trouble all over the streets again.

But it cannot be denied that these kids, despite their mischief, often provide the police with important information at crime scenes.

Especially Conan Edogawa, who looks somewhat similar to Shinichi Kudo.

He lives at the Mouri Detective Agency and then becomes Jiang Hang's apprentice. When he grows up, he will probably become a famous detective like Shinichi Kudo.

Just now, Inspector Megure obtained a lot of information that they didn't know before from Jiang Hang's description of Conan.

There are at least two people involved in each prisoner's case: one is responsible for observing from a distance, and the other is responsible for firing the gun.

Secondly, according to Conan's analysis, the bullets used by the criminal were Russian-made 7.62 caliber bullets. He could even roughly determine what type of handgun the criminal used based on the common handgun models used in Japanese arms smuggling, the angle at which the handgun bullets entered the ground, and the depth of their embedment in the rubber track. He estimated that the handgun was about 40 to 50 meters away from Conan and the others to the right, and that a silencer was used to avoid detection.

Otherwise, no matter how loud the cheers are from tens of thousands of people in the stadium, if there is no silencer, the people around the perpetrator will always react when the gunshot is fired.

"What exactly are you and Mori teaching Conan all this time..." Inspector Megure couldn't help but think to himself as he listened to Jiang Hang's words.

Can these things really be taught to a child who has just started elementary school?
