Conan Rick's Investigator

Although Itakura Taku is dead now, the software is in his hands.

But judging from the situation at the "Cocoon" press conference, the organization did not put all its hopes on Taku Itakura alone. They should have other software engineers who are developing this type of software and have already achieved success.

As a "man of the future", Qin Zhibo knows how popular computers will be around the world in the future.

If this software is allowed to spread on the Internet, the whole world will be in crisis.

It was because Taku Itakura foresaw this kind of future that he chose to give up cooperating with the organization.

[Organization? Are they the people that Itakura Taku mentioned in his diary?]

Sawada Hiroki also peeked at Itakura Taku's diary, which surprised Qin Zhibo. This artificial intelligence is so powerful.

Fortunately, due to the technological limitations of this era, I don’t have any torrents stored on my computer.

[Yes, it’s them]

These people have a huge influence in the real world. In addition to software, they also have in-depth research in biomedicine.

Regarding this organization, I have something I would like to ask for your help.

Sawada Hiroki answered without hesitation, "Go ahead."

Qin Zhibo typed his request in his notepad.

[This organization committed a crime 17 years ago, killing a capitalist and a Japanese shogi player in New York, USA]

[This incident happened a long time ago, and recently someone suddenly published detailed information about this case on the Internet]

[The person who published the information may be related to this incident. I would like to find out the identity of this person. Can you help me find the IP address of this person?]

Hiroki Sawada paused for a second before answering, "This is easy."

[Open that webpage and I’ll just take a look]

Qin Zhibo clicked on the webpage and found it in his favorites.

The webpage still publishes the same information as last time, with no new content updated.

In addition to detailed text annotations, there are also many photos of the murder scene.

Although these photos are not the key photos of the corpse, they are not available to ordinary people, not to mention that they were specially released 17 years later.

This is the page.

Qin Zhibo had just finished typing on the notepad when Sawada Hiroki immediately replied to the message.

[The IP address shows 6-24 Beika-cho, Tokyo, Japan]

So fast?

Qin Zhibo was a little surprised. Artificial intelligence is indeed very efficient!

However, what he didn't expect was that this person actually lived in Beika-cho, only one block away from his office.

That's even less of a reason not to take a look.

……

Soon, Qin Zhibo drove to No. 6, Beika 24-chome.

This is not a detached house, but an apartment building with about dozens of residents.

Qin Zhibo walked to the mailbox in front of the apartment building and checked the names of the owners one by one to see if there was any familiar name among them.

But at this moment, several familiar voices came from behind.

"Uncle Qin!"

“Haha~ We met here!”

Qin Zhibo's body trembled suddenly, and he had a bad feeling in his heart.

When I turned around, I saw that it was indeed the Junior Detective Team.

Chapter 1050: Shock from Huiyuan

On the side of the street, the five-member Junior Detective Team, led by three little ones, came over with smiles on their faces.

"Gift--!"

The three little ones stretched out their hands in unison and placed them in front of Qin Zhibo.

This made Qin Zhibo stunned, and he asked, "What gift?"

Ayumi: "Of course it's a gift from America!"

Yuantai: "Didn't you bring me some American candy last time?"

Guangyan: "Uncle Qin, you didn't forget, did you?"

Looking at the expectant eyes of the three little ones, Qin Zhibo could only scratch his head embarrassedly.

"I really forgot about this..."

This trip to the United States was very rushed. It was good enough that I could bring some gifts at the airport. How could I possibly remember to bring gifts for the three little ones?

"Alas, how heartless..."

When they heard there were no gifts, the three little ones immediately hung their heads in disappointment.

Looking at the depressed looks of the three little ones, Qin Zhibo knew who was to blame for this.

The fault wasn’t mine for not bringing any gifts, nor was it the fault of the three little ones who asked for gifts.

But...Conan!

Qin Zhibo turned his attack around and slapped Conan, who was standing next to him and smiling cheerfully, on the head.

"Conan, you have a big mouth, don't you?"

Conan, who was gloating, suddenly shrank his neck and realized that something was wrong.

"Um...wasn't Kaito Kid planning to steal Sunflowers at Haneda Airport last time? These kids were clamoring to hear a story, so I took the opportunity..."

Qin Zhibo had a forced smile on his face, "You just revealed my whereabouts?"

"sorry!"

Conan immediately bowed in Japanese style and asked Qin Zhibo for forgiveness.

Ai Haibara, who was standing next to him, looked at this scene and smiled slightly.

Conan is the most arrogant and domineering detective in Haibara Ai's eyes. The only person who can subdue him in all aspects is Qin Zhibo, who is also a famous detective.

Qin Zhibo didn't go too far and patted Conan's head gently. "Okay, since you apologized sincerely, then uncle will forgive you."

"By the way, today is a school day. Why are you guys leaving school so early?"

Ayumi excitedly explained, "Today is Wednesday, and we elementary school students only have to attend classes for half a day!"

Genta next to him also said: "Dr. Agasa asked us to go to his house to play, but we need help finding something first..."

"Oh I got it."

As a "time-blind" person, Qin Zhibo would not be able to figure it out unless he paid special attention to what day it was today.

However, since the Junior Detective Team has something to do and no case will happen if they go to Dr. Agasa's house, he plans to send these kids away first.

Then I'll do some research in this area to see if I can find the person who posted the details of the Haneda case online.

Although this needle-in-a-haystack method is unlikely to find it...

But just when Qin Zhibo was about to send the Junior Detective Team away, Guangyan suddenly grabbed Qin Zhibo's hand.

"As punishment for not bringing us any gifts, Uncle Qin, please come with us to Dr. Agasa's house to help find something!"

Ayumi and Genta also became interested when they heard this.

"Yes, with Uncle Qin's help, we will definitely be able to find Dr. Agasa's lost things quickly, and we can play games soon!"

"Let's go! Let's go! Let's go to Dr. Agasa's house together!"

Ayumi and Mitsuhiko each held one of Qin Zhibo's hands, and Genta pushed Qin Zhibo's back from behind, and the three of them shouted loudly in the street.

Qin Zhibo was about to refuse on the grounds that he had something important to do, but his heart suddenly shook and he felt a sharp gaze staring at him.

He raised his head suddenly and glanced at the apartment building.

However, due to the angle, no suspicious people could be seen, only glass windows reflecting the midday sun.

But he knew he was not wrong, someone was indeed staring at him just now.

As a former FBI investigator, Qin Zhibo was able to keenly sense the gazes secretly watching him.

Moreover, this kind of gaze is often not a casual glance like looking at passers-by, but a purposeful secret observation.

Was he discovered by that person?

Sometimes, too high a social credit score is not a good thing...

Qin Zhibo's eyes flickered slightly, and his brain immediately changed his mind.

"Okay, I'll go to Dr. Agasa's house with you guys, okay?"

"Great!"

The three little ones made excited noises and double-teamed Qin Zhibo as they walked towards Dr. Agasa's house, fearing that he would run away halfway.

Although the three of them are not very strong, they are serious about their professionalism in currying favor with others.

Obviously, Qin Zhibo has thighs thicker than Conan's.

Conan, who was standing next to him, was also a little surprised to see Qin Zhibo readily agree to the three little ones' request.

When I saw Qin Zhibo on the roadside just now, he was obviously checking the mailboxes of the residents in the apartment building. He must have some commission on him.

Conan had been thinking of waiting for Qin Zhibo to refuse to go to Dr. Agasa's house, and then asking Qin Zhibo what he was investigating, so that he could take advantage of a case to play around.

Sometimes you don’t have to create a case yourself, you can also borrow someone else’s.

Takagi and Kogoro Mori are the people he often takes advantage of to get involved in cases.

As a result, Qin Zhibo did not play by the rules. He didn't even say "Uncle won't tell you" and simply gave up the investigation.

There are only two possibilities.

One is that the case itself is not important and can be handled casually afterwards.

The second reason is that the case is very important and children cannot be allowed to stay around, so they want to send the Junior Detective Team away first.

These two possibilities...

Conan's mind was wandering as he walked straight to the mailbox of the residents in the apartment building and scanned the names of the residents one by one.

However, there were no names of acquaintances or wanted criminals recently released by the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department on the household names list. They were just some very ordinary names.

Conan held his chin and thought for a while.

Is it just an insignificant commission?

At this moment, a cold voice came from the side.

"You guessed that the old man had some commission, so he showed up here, right?"

Conan turned around and saw that it was Haibara Ai who did not follow the three little ones and Qin Zhibo towards Dr. Agasa's house, but chose to follow him silently.

This was a tacit understanding between the two of them. Conan just thought that Haibara Ai was observing the experimental receptor of APTX-4869 and didn't ask any more questions.

"Well, but there's too little information on this email address. I can't tell what kind of commission he received..."

Conan looked at the neatly arranged mailboxes, with the names of the owners corresponding to the house numbers one by one, and he felt vaguely that this scene was familiar.

It seems like the last time was also on Wednesday at noon after school, and it was also the Junior Detectives who ran into Qin Zhibo...

He seemed to be with someone... helping to find the mailbox in front of the apartment building...

At this moment, just as at that moment.

But when Conan tried to recall what kind of person Qin Zhibo brought with him at that time, he did not have any reliable impression.

I just vaguely remember that the other person seemed to be a young girl.

"Hey, Huibara, you..."
