Chapter 395 Makoto Kyogoku, Resurrected!

The night deepened.

Jirokichi Suzuki led Sonoko Suzuki, who had changed into formal attire, through the empty data center. Looking at the rows of data cabinets, even though Sonoko was only a high school student, she knew absolutely nothing about this area.

She could also tell that the number of data cabinets here was unusually large.

Why are there so many data cabinets?

Sonoko Suzuki looked around curiously, because she knew this was the data center for the new company Chen En had set up for himself. She just didn't know why Chen En needed to set up a data center before even finding all the necessary personnel.

Recruiting, R&D, release, and operations—these stages all require a lot of time and money.

The maintenance cost of so many data cabinets in the server room is already a considerable expense. Maintaining them for so many days is simply burning money, isn't it? Even if she wasn't raised as an heir before, she has developed a certain awareness of large sums of money now that she is being raised as an heir.

"I have a feeling that Chen En's company may be developing faster than I imagined."

Suzuki Jirokichi stroked his chin and said,

“I suspect that Chen En might even take this opportunity to deliberately provoke Tomoko, sign a betting agreement with her, and then quickly produce products. Using the name of the betting agreement, he could quickly rise to become a new large conglomerate in Tokyo.”

This sounds like a fantasy...?

Sonoko Suzuki blinked.

Although in her heart, Chen En was the most capable and outstanding person she had ever met, wasn't it a bit too difficult to achieve this? This is something that can't be accomplished simply through personal excellence and hard work, is it?

"It's possible."

Jirokichi Suzuki turned to look at Sonoko Suzuki.

He blinked, a strange glint in his eyes, and said softly,

"He told me about his plan: if Chen En could really achieve rapid iteration of electronic products, grasp the development direction, and then use the investment he brought in to continue compounding profits and snowballing, then..."

"I think I might become the first shareholder of the new consortium."

The first shareholder?

Sonoko Suzuki blinked, still not quite understanding.

She wasn't sensitive to these things, and Suzuki Jirokichi didn't continue the topic, but instead smiled and said...

"Sonoko, do you remember why I went back to Tokyo?"

At this point, Sonoko Suzuki immediately provided an answer.

"I know. Uncle said that he has accomplished everything in the world except for capturing Kaito Kid. Therefore, Uncle wants to stay in Tokyo and defeat Kaito Kid head-on."

Sonoko Suzuki had just finished speaking when she showed a somewhat surprised expression.

"Uncle, are you going to deal with Phantom Thief Kid again?"

Upon hearing this, Jirokichi Suzuki's lips curled into a smile.

"Of course, I must achieve the feat of defeating Phantom Thief Kid."

"The person who stole the Jade Emperor before was actually Chen En, not Phantom Thief Kid. Therefore, Phantom Thief Kid will most likely come back to steal the Jade Emperor again. However, just in case, Phantom Thief Kid is too proud to come in person or he will come secretly."

"I need to change the name of the Jade Emperor's appraisal, then create a buzz, make a fake announcement, and invite Phantom Thief Kid."

Please invite Phantom Thief Kid?

Sonoko Suzuki blinked and answered,

"I don't know."

"Why not just buy a new gem? Wouldn't this be too much trouble?"

Suzuki Jirokichi: ?

Such a pure idea; for a moment, I didn't know how to refute it.

He simply coughed twice and replied.

"Ahem, that's because there aren't any new gems available for purchase on the market right now."

"After a while, your uncle will get you a [Visbania] gem to show you your strength. In short, I plan to start this plan after the relationship between you and Chen En is established in the Cocoon Game, the Chen Enxin Group, and Chen En."

"First, I need to use the batch of American equipment I imported back then."

"Although it didn't work well against Kaito Kid, I found it to be very effective against other criminals in the Suzuki Foundation headquarters. I think it's because of the different users that it affects the combat effectiveness."

At this point, Suzuki Jirokichi said, feigning seriousness,

"You can't even drive it properly, so what are you talking about performance for?"

"That's probably the gist of it, so I plan to ask Chen En to be the mechanism operator so that the world's strongest anti-theft mechanism, namely Kyogoku Makoto, who previously fought against Chen En, can fight against Kaito Kid."

"This time, we'll make sure Phantom Thief Kid never leaves alive!"

At this point, Sonoko Suzuki suddenly remembered something, and she turned to ask,

"? Kyogoku Makoto? Kyogoku Makoto isn't..."

Suzuki Jirokichi said,

"He has already woken up; it happened this morning."

The speed and sharpness of that axe far exceeded my expectations.

However, my plan still succeeded. I managed to block the opponent's axe blade at the cost of an arm, thus delivering a decisive punch to the target. But due to significant blood loss, my strength was declining, and that punch failed to cause any damage.

Then, Phantom Thief Kid rescued me; I knew it was Chen En.

Aside from Chen En, who had warned me to be careful of the Slash Demon, there shouldn't be another person who was aware of the Slash Demon's whereabouts, appeared at the scene at just the right time, and was able to rescue me.

The Suzuki Foundation extended an invitation to me, which I initially intended to decline.

However, the Suzuki Foundation announced that Chen En would also be coming this time. I realized this was a repeat of the last battle to protect the Jade Emperor, so I agreed and prepared to fight Chen En, who had transformed into Phantom Thief Kid, once again.

To do one's utmost.

Makoto Kyogoku opened his eyes.

The hand he used to resist the axe blade had been stitched up, and his powerful body was forcing that arm to heal quickly. Soon, he would be able to regain his full strength, and even surpass his previous level.

Because, in the moment of impending death, he also saw those things that did not exist, those illusory possibilities.

He was indeed able to apply his past experience to the next time.

He has already stepped halfway into the realm of things that can be seen but have no form. As he continues to challenge masters from all walks of life in the future, he will one day reach the highest realm he desires.

There is currently a qualified expert who needs to be prepared.

He had to prepare to confront Chen En and the Phantom Thief Kid. He had to recall every detail of Chen En's actions, guard against every gadget Chen En used, and decipher every attitude Chen En displayed.

He must do his utmost to try and go further under Chen En's pressure.

"Phantom Thief Kid, come and wait for my challenge."

"Either I knock you down, or you knock me down. This time, there will be no possibility of determining the winner through external means!"

Makoto Kyogoku, resurrected!

Chapter 396 Departure, Cocoon Games Announcement

[Easy-difficulty security mission completed!]

[Your 20 points reward has been credited to your account. Please check!]

[You've been awarded 10 points for helping Sheriff Gordon solve a difficult problem!]

Chen En waited for the mail truck to enter the designated area, after Inspector Megure and the others completed the arrests.

He then stopped paying attention to the incident.

After obtaining the system points, he sent information about Date Wataru to Furuya Rei's private email address under the name of Batman. If nothing unexpected happens, Furuya Rei will soon be unable to resist accessing Date Wataru's files.

We'll leave aside for now regarding this Japanese Public Security officer's character, but he certainly has the ability.

There's something fishy about Date Wataru's death, and Furuya Rei would definitely see that. Given his personality, he would absolutely investigate or secretly plot to find a way to eliminate Muddy Sankai.

From this perspective, Chen En felt that Rei Furuya and Shuichi Akai were like two completely opposite versions of their original counterparts, Amuro Ray and Char Aznable. It was as if Rei Furuya had the Char Aznable script and Shuichi Akai had the Amuro Ray script.

"Uncle, is the data cabinet's transmission system currently open?"

Chen En gently pressed his fingers against his earphones and asked,

Meanwhile, Jirokichi Suzuki, who was still inside the new group's building promoting his grand vision to Sonoko Suzuki, picked up the phone and said it was already underway. Chen En, on the other hand, used his own method to remotely confirm it.

He only turned to other questions after he discovered that everything was as Suzuki Jirokichi had said.

First, Chen En wanted a computer, a computer with exceptionally high specifications.

Otherwise, even if he copied all the data from Noah's Ark and transferred it to the data cabinets in the new corporate building, Noah's Ark wouldn't be able to unleash its full potential without suitable hardware, and a computer that meets this requirement...

No, yes, no, only the computer that the Sindora Foundation moved to the Mikado City Hall has that capability.

This is not a problem, because the Suzuki Group is one of the investors in the Sindora Group. According to his original plan, the chairman of the Sindora Group would be imprisoned and his reputation would be ruined. The Sindora Group would also be severely damaged as a result, and might even be investigated by the tax authorities.

If the Suzuki Foundation had demanded to take the supercomputer from the Beika City Hall at that time...

Clearly, the Sindora Group would not refuse this request unless they wanted to add another tiger to their already formidable enemy, one that was already surrounded by wolves. If the Suzuki Group wanted it, the Sindora Group would definitely give it to them.

Chen En was confident that he could persuade the Suzuki Group to keep the supercomputer, and he was also confident that he could get his hands on the supercomputer.
