Stay away from Conan

"Ah! If Edogawa and the others knew that you did not go out of town because of an urgent commission, but actually participated in the finals of the hacker competition as a contestant, I wonder what they would think..."

In Akechi's house, less than a day before the opening of the offline finals, Xiao Ai said to Gao Yuan meaningfully while holding the tickets she received from Mio Tokiwa.

In this regard, Gao Yuan could only wave his hands with a sigh and said:

"There's nothing we can do about it. One of the organizers is the Tokiwa Group!"

"so……"

Listening to what Gao Yuan said, Xiao Ai looked at Gao Yuan thoughtfully and asked:

"You chose to participate in this 'World Hacking Competition'. Is it related to the Tokiwa Group? Speaking of which, Mr. Yoshiaki Hara, the triggerman of the Kamu incident, was originally a director of the Tokiwa Group..."

"Well...there is indeed some reason for this."

——Tokiwa Group and Sindora Company, the "World Hacking Competition" jointly organized by these two companies was enough to interest Gao Yuan, and it happened to happen after the Kamu incident ended, and it was originally difficult to have funds. Tokiwa Group has received cooperation from Sindora Company, which is a bit of a coincidence at this time.

In addition, this competition is a hacker competition, which happens to be a field that Gao Yuan is good at. Recalling his interesting experience when he was led by his mentor to participate in similar competitions before coming to this world, Gao Yuan couldn't help but think. To participate in the activity.

Moreover, the source of the incident was Koizumi Anko asking him for help, and at the same time helping Kuroba Kaito in disguise. It can be said that the choice of participating in the competition is a multi-purpose choice.

Therefore, Gao Yuan replied with a slight nod.

In this regard, after listening to Gao Yuan's response, Xiao Ai's expression became slightly more solemn. After being silent for a moment, he replied:

"Then...have you ever considered that this World Hacking Competition might...

"Will it also attract the attention of the organization?"

In this way, Xiao Ai looked at Gao Yuan solemnly, waiting for Gao Yuan's response——

Because, the director of Tokiwa Group, Hara Jiaming, is a member of the organization. In addition, during the Mantendo incident, we learned that the organization is also secretly looking for programmers...

Although there is still a big gap between programmers and hackers, top hackers are also of great value to the organization, so Xiao Ai is a little worried about Gao Yuan who will go to the offline finals...

In this regard, listening to Xiao Ai's words, Gao Yuan naturally thought about this situation, but in the end, Gao Yuan smiled confidently, gave Xiao Ai a look of affirmation, and said:

"In this regard... don't worry!"

In this way, seeing Gao Yuan's calm and confident expression that he had rarely seen before, Xiao Ai's face turned slightly red, feeling that Gao Yuan...

A bit dazzling...

Is it because in this situation, he has completely entered his field?

…

"Yuan Jiaming is missing."

At night, in a black "Porsche 356A" car driving away from Tokyo from near the Metropolitan Police Department, Gin, a man with long silver hair dressed in black and wearing a black hat, looked at the person on the other end of the phone. He said this with an indifferent expression.

In response to this, the female voice on the phone looked a little surprised and asked:

"disappeared?"

"That's right. Since Kamu's death, although Yuan Jiaming surrendered, all investigations have become impossible to achieve results. There are no clues to prove the authenticity of Yuan Jiaming's confession, so the police can only rely on evidence. It's not enough to let it out...

"However, by the time we arrived, Yuan Jiaming had completely disappeared."

Gin said this with an indifferent tone, and then, as if pointing to something, Gin asked the woman on the other side of the phone with a gloomy look:

"Where are you now? Belmode."

"U.K."

Casually, the female voice on the other end of the phone, that is, Bermod, replied calmly.

"England? Why did you go there?"

"'World Hacking Championship'...I'm going to try to get a ticket...a ticket to the official competition."

Belmode replied.

"Hacker competition? Haha, this kind of thing is superficially called a 'hacker competition', but in fact it's just a 'playing house' competition. Are you interested?"

Gin said with some disdain——

After all, how could a real top hacker reveal his identity and show up to participate in that kind of competition?

"It's not me, it's Rum."

Faced with Gin's doubts, Belmode replied:

"It is said that the mysterious hacker who has made an attack on the dark web before has made an attack in the preliminaries of the 'Hacker Competition' this time. This hacker organization has been looking for a long time but cannot find any trace, and now, since this If a character takes action in this kind of game, then the opponent will definitely participate in this offline game, so Rum pays special attention to this game.”

"Rum..."

After hearing this, Gin thought for a moment, and then asked:

"How come I don't know about this kind of thing? Besides, I'm just paying attention to the competition. Why do I need to go to England to get a so-called admission ticket?"

"Because of this specific operation, Rum was handed over to another person, and he wanted to directly participate in this competition and meet the mysterious hacker."

Belmode said.

"who?"

Gin asked.

"'Pinga'."

The name was spoken immediately in Belmode's mouth.

"'Binga'?"

When he heard this name, Gin seemed to understand a little, and his expression changed slightly:

"It is said that after Kamu's accident, his movements became more frequent... Oh, yes, there was a vacant seat in the front, and the people behind him were eager to sit in it, without worrying about whether that seat could be taken... "

Gin said this in a somewhat mocking tone.

In response to this, Belmod on the other end of the phone chuckled, seemingly noncommittal, and then said:

"In short, now Rum agrees with Binga's idea and goes directly to try out the mysterious hacker offline. Therefore, I need a place in the offline competition, so I came to the UK to try... Can I find one? The player obtains his qualification directly.”

"Are you alone?"

Gin asked doubtfully.

"It's nothing difficult at all. It's just something you can get by paying for it. There's no need to put too much thought into it."

Bermod said calmly on the other end of the phone.

"Really?"

Hearing this, Gin replied like this, and then was about to hang up the phone without any intention of saying anything else——

"Ah, by the way. You said Yuan Jiaming is missing? I think it would be better if you tell Rum directly about this matter."

Before Gin hung up the phone, Bermod on the other end of the phone suggested this.

In response, as the call ended and Gin looked at his phone, his expression changed slightly——

Oh, rum...

Camus himself was not involved in the whole thing. His confidants Curacao, Bellmode, and even the rumored Hennessy were all arranged by Rum to be involved in that operation. What does this mean?

Now, the disappearance of Yuan Jiaming also makes me ask Rum...

Thinking about it this way, I feel that this is the first time that I have excluded all my personnel from the whole thing...

Camus, what does it matter? ()
