Conan Rick's Investigator

At this time, Director Makino clapped his hands and announced: "Everyone take a 15-minute break, and then continue testing various functions."

The server entered standby mode and the people in the control room also went into rest mode.

Akai Tsutomu turned to look at Chief Makino and asked, "Testing various functions, do you mean the facial recognition system?"

"Yes."

Makino nodded and explained, "In addition to the facial recognition system, there is also the 'cross-age recognition system' developed by Naomi."

"This system can be used to estimate the aging of the facial skeleton and the appearance of a young face, use CG to create a facial model, and then use facial recognition to search for people with the same face."

"Of course, I've heard about what you're looking for. Because the search range this time is global, we have to wait until the system is officially completed tomorrow before we can start testing..."

Director Makino had received orders from above and knew that the purpose of Qin Zhibo and others' visit was not only to help defend the Pacific buoy, but also to use this system to search for a group of special criminals.

Although Makino was not quite sure what kind of criminal it was and required the ICPO to immediately use this system, he naturally did not dare to neglect it.

On the other side, Naomi walked to Dr. Agasa's control panel and praised him generously: "As expected of Dr. Agasa, you can fully master this operating system so quickly..."

"And Hiroki Sawada is worthy of being the world's first artificial intelligence AI!"

"It's a pity that if you were still alive, we could meet..."

At this point, Naomi's eyes revealed a hint of regret.

Chapter 1484 Organization Attack

As a top female student who studied in Boston since childhood, Naomi Argent had naturally heard of the Boston-based Syndorra Company.

There is also Hiroki Sawada, a Japanese software prodigy adopted by the president of Syndor Corporation.

Two years ago, at the age of 10, Hiroki Sawada developed the world's first artificial intelligence AI, Noah's Ark.

When Naomi, who was also studying computer science at university, saw the report about Hiroki Sawada on TV, she was shocked.

From childhood to adulthood, Naomi has always felt that she has a strong learning ability. Her parents have high hopes for her and she is considered a genius by people around her.

But she didn't expect that in the same city, there was a software prodigy who was already a member of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology at the age of 10 and had achieved significant results.

Unfortunately, just when she wanted to see this child prodigy in person, bad news came on TV.

Hiroki Sawada committed suicide by jumping off the building of Sindora Corporation.

Naomi found it unbelievable that a 10-year-old child committed suicide by jumping off a building.

But thinking about the various setbacks she encountered when studying as a child, Naomi guessed that the child prodigy might also be carrying pain and pressure that ordinary people could hardly imagine.

However, the two systems left by Hiroki Sawada before his death gave Naomi inspiration.

One is a DNA tracking system that can trace human ancestry using skin and blood data.

The other is artificial intelligence AI that can learn and complete some computer tasks autonomously.

Inspired by this, Naomi created a cross-age recognition system.

The principle of this system is similar to that of the DNA tracking system, but the function has been changed to facial recognition and tracking.

And the work such as establishing the CG face model is also completed through the system's built-in AI program.

It can be said that Hiroki Sawada is not only Naomi's idol in computers, but also a guide for her to realize her dreams.

Because Naomi chose to develop a cross-age recognition system, she also had a personal wish to fulfill...

"Although I am just an artificial intelligence, I was created by Hiroki Sawada himself with great effort, so I can be considered half 'him'."

"So don't be too sad, at least you can still talk to his legacy..."

Hiroki Sawada's voice has a hint of human emotion, as if you are talking to a real person.

"Ah."

"Thank you, Hiroki Sawada."

Naomi said what she wanted to say, and she felt a lot more relaxed.

The workload these past two days was very heavy, and she hadn't had a chance to speak out.

"By the way, does anyone want some coffee?"

Naomi turned around and asked Dr. Agasa and other staff members.

After collecting a few people who wanted to drink coffee, she came to Qin Zhibo and the others and asked, "Would you like something to drink?"

Qin Zhibo, Director Makino, and Akai Shuichi each ordered a cup of coffee.

Akai Tsutomu and Akai Mary drank black tea.

Since there were many people ordering drinks, Mary suggested that Shuichi Akai go along.

"Shuichi, you should go and help too."

Akai Shuichi silently turned around and followed Naomi away.

After the two left the main control room, Qin Zhibo's phone suddenly vibrated.

hum-

He picked up the phone and saw that it was a text message from Toru Amuro.

When Qin Zhibo saw the content of the text message, his expression suddenly changed.

【Beware of submarine attacks! 】

……

In the control room of a submarine, Gin, Vodka, Bourbon, Vermouth, Kil, and Curacao were standing behind the control panel, looking at the sonar map.

When a green dot appeared on the sonar map among the green ripples that spread outward from the center, a ferocious smile appeared on Gin's lips.

"The Pacific buoy has arrived..."

"Once you're within range, launch the torpedo immediately!"

"Yes!"

A submarine crew member sitting in front of the operating table answered, and then quickly operated the console with both hands.

Bourbon, Kiel, and Curacao, who were standing at the back and watching, all had a hint of nervousness in their eyes.

Just two days ago, Bourbon had learned about the Red Team's next move through Heibei Kuroda, which was to search for the location of the organization's "ghost ship" through the global monitoring system of Pacific buoys.

However, before this operational plan was formulated, the organization had already sent Binga to infiltrate the monitoring center of the European Police Organization.

This shows that the organization has long been aware that the Pacific buoy is likely to pose a major threat to the organization's plans.

Today the organization suddenly issued an order to launch an attack on the Pacific buoy, which was a decision to completely eliminate this threat.

It was just that since he received the temporary order today, Bourbon had been under high pressure the whole time, and only just now did he find an opportunity to send a text message in the toilet.

I don't know if there is enough preparation time over there...

"Gin, are you sure you want to blow up the Pacific Buoy completely?"

In order to buy time for Qin Zhibo, Bourbon made up his mind to speak and delay the attack.

"Ok?"

Gin snorted and cast a gloomy look at Bourbon who was standing behind him.

"Do you have any doubts about the orders issued by the boss?"

"Do not……"

Bourbon stared at Gin with no sign of weakness, a sinister smile on his face, "I just think that facial recognition system seems to be very powerful. If we can steal this system and use it for the organization, wouldn't it be possible to maximize the benefits?"

Gil, who was standing next to him, also realized what Bourbon was saying and quickly agreed, "Yes, Gin, what Bourbon said does make sense..."

But before Gil could finish his words, Gin rejected it coldly.

"The boss's order is to completely destroy the Pacific buoy, not to do anything else unnecessary..."

"Or is there some reason you don't want to destroy it?"

Gin's voice was cold and creepy, and his green pupils were fixed on Bourbon and Kill, as if he might pull out a pistol and shoot them at the next moment.

Vodka, Vermouth, and Curacao looked at Gin, who was obviously serious, with a hint of fear in their eyes, and no one dared to interrupt.

And just then, the voice of the submarine operator broke the silence in the air.

"The target has entered the torpedo's attack range!"

"emission!"

As Gin gave the order, the operator immediately followed it.

In the torpedo room of the submarine, two huge torpedoes slowly entered the launching tube from the loading position.

……

At the same time, in the Pacific buoy, Qin Zhibo saw the text message and immediately turned to look at Dr. Agasa at the main control position.

"Dr. Agasa! Check the sonar system here immediately!"

Dr. Agasa, who was relaxing in his chair, was stunned when he heard Qin Zhibo's shout.

However, seeing the anxious expression on Qin Zhibo's face, he did not ask the reason in detail, but immediately turned around and spoke into the microphone.

"Hiroki, check the sonar system immediately!"

With Hiroki Sawada's millisecond response speed, a dark interface immediately popped up on the central screen of the main control room.

All I saw were two flashing red dots marked "warning" moving rapidly toward the Pacific buoy.

Chapter 1485 Backdoor

As a sword of Damocles hanging over the heads of global criminals in the future, before the Pacific Buoy project was launched, it was considered that the facility might become the number one target of attack for international criminal organizations.

Therefore, radar early warning systems and air defense missiles are installed on the sea surface platform of the Pacific buoy and on the nearby Hachijo Island 5 kilometers away.

A sonar system is installed in the pyramid base below the sea surface, which can be used for anti-submarine and torpedo alarm.

The reason why Qin Zhibo knew all this was that he had been living in a buoy in the Pacific Ocean these days and could occasionally hear the sounds of whales coming from the corridor. In fact, he relied on sonar to capture the special sounds of the seabed.

"What? Torpedo!"

"Quickly launch the decoy bomb!"

Director Makino waved his hand, and the staff at the edge control console reacted and took action immediately.

"Launch the decoy bomb! Copy!"

"Decoy bomb launched!"

In the iron-black deep sea, two hatches popped out from the edge of the huge power-generating ring surrounding the pyramid.

Two missiles shot out from the hatch and swam towards the left and right sides of the hatch respectively.

After the decoy bullet swims a certain distance, the outer shell pops out of the umbrella-shaped structure, making a loud noise.

Both torpedoes are acoustic homing torpedoes. Under the guidance of the noise emitted by the decoy bombs, they changed their course and chased the two decoy bombs.

boom!

boom!

Two deafening noises suddenly exploded underwater, like thunder in the depths of the water world, creating layers of underwater ripples.

The impact force generated by the explosion created a spherical splash of water, which spread to the sea surface and splashed a huge column of water.

"Damn it! He was lured away by the decoy bomb!"

Vodka looked at the two torpedoes disappearing on the screen and cursed through gritted teeth.

"Don't worry! Keep shooting..."

Gin said in a low voice, and then glanced at Vermouth beside him.

When Vermouth saw Gin's cold eyes, she immediately understood and sat aside to open her laptop and start operating it.

Bourbon immediately realized that something was wrong and quietly came to the side and back of Vermouth to watch.
