Conan's grammatical investigator

Chapter 1330 Task Assignment
Just a moment later, Conan revealed his true nature again - an impatient boy.

As soon as he heard that Qin Zhibo had an undercover agent lurking in the organization, he immediately wanted to find out about the person's situation.

Then what’s the point of understanding the situation?

Of course it’s to cause trouble!

So Qin Zhibo certainly couldn't give him the chance to disturb Mizuno Rena.

In fact, Conan had already visited Rena Mizunashi's house once before, with the purpose of testing Rena Mizunashi's true identity.

However, the undercover identity is naturally safer the fewer people know it.

Just like those undercover movies, the undercover agent often has only one supervisor, just to ensure absolute confidentiality.

Seeing that Conan was speechless, Qin Zhibo continued to explain.

"Next, the Kudo couple will go to the United States to let the FBI and CIA work together."

"On this point, the Nine Angels Organization will help coordinate..."

Although the FBI and the CIA are investigative organizations in the same country, they have similar powers and sometimes conflict over the same issues, so there are grudges between them.

However, the Nine Angels Organization has a great influence in the United States. With Kudo Yusaku serving as the liaison consultant between the two parties, fairness in the exchange of intelligence between the two sides can be guaranteed. I believe that cooperation between the two at the official level is just around the corner.

This time, Qin Zhibo mentioned the Nine Angels Organization again. In addition, it was mentioned once before that Qin Zhibo participated in the memorial service at the Beihu Hotel through the Nine Angels Organization, which once again aroused Conan's curiosity.

He raised his hand and asked, "Um...can you tell me what the Nine Angels Organization is?"

This time Conan learned his lesson and his attitude became much better.

Most importantly, don’t rush.

Qin Zhibo nodded with satisfaction and explained generously, "The Nine Angels Organization is a non-governmental organization composed of many investigative agents."

"You can think of it as a detective organization that accepts missions, completes missions, and gets paid... that's about it."

Qin Zhibo used the simplest language to distill the core operating mechanism of the Nine Angels Organization.

Conan nodded in understanding. While he roughly understood it, he was also surprised that there was such a mysterious organization in the detective world.

Why was it that no one ever invited me when I had been carrying the halo of "savior of Japanese police" for a year?
Was it because I was not mature enough before and therefore not qualified?

Well, that must be the case.

Compared with Qin Zhibo, who is an outstanding member, I was indeed very immature in the past.

In the past, people were complacent just because they solved a few murders and had their stories reported in the newspapers, but they had no idea of ​​the truth about the world.

It seems that I still need to practice more...

Conan is performing self-improvement PUA in his head.

Qin Zhibo announced the mission of the Hei Yu couple.

"Mr. Hei Yu and Mrs. Hei Yu, your next task is to investigate as much as possible about the legend of Cthulhu and various signs that may occur in the near future..."

"Based on the intelligence I have obtained previously, the true purpose of the organization's boss is likely related to the revival of Cthulhu."

“The software and drugs developed by the organization are likely prepared for that moment.”

"Although the clues in this regard are not very clear now, we must prepare in advance..."

As soon as Qin Zhibo finished speaking, Conan, who was reflecting on himself, suddenly widened his eyes and realized that he seemed to have heard something incredible.

that……

Is this something I can listen to?
At this moment, with his lapel slightly wet, he first reflected on whether he should be anxious about this.

But before he could say anything, Qin Zhibo began to explain.

"In fact, I first had this guess at the murder scene of Itakura Taku. Conan, you were also there at the time..."

Conan stared and nodded repeatedly.

Of course he remembered, after all, that was the trigger that nearly killed him in the locker at the subway station.

"At that time, in Itakura Taku's diary, it was revealed that he once questioned a queen-like woman in the organization, what was her purpose?"

“The woman’s answer was: We can be both of God and the devil. Since we’re trying to raise the dead against the stream of time…”

"Conan, what do you think this sentence means?"

Qin Zhibo's question made Conan frown, and a look of doubt appeared in his eyes.

In fact, he had thought about the meaning of this sentence countless times during sleepless nights.

But no matter how I think about it, the only thing I can think of is the literal meaning, which is "reversing the flow of time and bringing the dead back to life."

But if this is the purpose of the organization, Conan can’t understand it.

If it is to resurrect the dead, it is of course a good thing that benefits the world. There is no need to hide it, and there is no need to cover it up by disguising it as a criminal organization.

Unless the organization wants to use this as an excuse to achieve its own ambitions.

For example, using this technology to coerce the whole world...

Conan murmured his thoughts.

But after hearing this, Qin Zhibo shook his head in front of everyone.

"No, if the organization's purpose is to resurrect the dead, then there is no need to go to such great lengths."

"Because I suspect the organization has already mastered this technology."

As soon as these words came out, Conan's eyes widened in shock.

Including Yusaku Kudo, Toichi Kuroba and others who were present, there was more or less some surprise in their eyes.

Before Conan woke up, when several people were having a discussion, Qin Zhibo mentioned "Cthulhu", and no one was so surprised.

After all, gods are something very far away from humans.

Moreover, the Heiyu family had more or less encountered similar mysterious incidents before.

Although the Kudo couple did not, after the last case in Oklahoma, USA, Kudo Yusaku also did some research and learned about the existence of such beliefs.

However, compared to the unreachable gods, the resurrection of the human body is closely related to the interests of mankind itself.

Qin Zhibo looked serious and continued to explain, "In fact, not long ago, I met an undercover agent planted by the Japanese Public Security Bureau who was presumed dead two and a half years ago."

"The undercover agent who reappeared not only seems to have lost his previous memories, but has also become a minion of the organization."

"Although this may be the result of the organization finding a way to revive this person and then brainwashing him for a long time..."

"But I think it's more likely that the dead have been resurrected."

The reason why Qin Zhibo said this was, on the one hand, that Amuro Toru himself was very sure that given the situation at the time, it was absolutely impossible for Morobushi Kagemitsu to survive on his own.

Because Zhufu Jingguang chose to commit suicide in order not to expose his identity.

On the other hand, he obtained the human resurrection technique by going to Enkai to meet Tsathoggua.

After being resurrected, the person will lose his or her memory and become a "blank slate" that only retains basic life experience, skills, and muscle memory.

Karasuma Renya had also met with Satogua. If he had acquired this technique, he would be able to turn the dead Morobushi Kagemitsu into "his own man." Therefore, resurrecting the dead was not a problem for Karasuma Renya at all, let alone any ultimate goal.

"I think the meaning of 'dead' in this sentence is as follows..."

"It does not refer to the dead or deceased, but to 'the sleeper'."

"Sleeper..." Conan frowned slightly, "Does this make any difference?"

In human allegory, the sleeper is the dead, because the dead sleep forever.

But Qin Zhi shook his head and denied it: "No, the sleepers do not refer to humans."

"There exists a deity in the world that many call 'The Lord of the Deep Sea'... Cthulhu."

"Cthulhu is a god sleeping in the deep sea. His body and consciousness are eternal and indestructible."

"According to Cthulhu believers, Cthulhu is currently in a long period of slumber, and only occasionally will it have spiritual contact with unspecified humans."

“Those who are touched by its spirit often fall into a state of madness, especially artists who become famous because of this crazy inspiration.”

"Cthulhu is now sleeping in the underwater city of R'lyeh. Only when the stars return to their correct positions will R'lyeh float to the surface, and the long-sleeping Cthulhu will revive and bring destruction to mankind..."

"This is a legend that has been passed down among believers, but part of this legend is now being fulfilled."

"For example, the wandering planet that caused a lot of noise the day before yesterday was the one that could attribute the correct position of the planet to the pioneer Ghros..."

Qin Zhibo said a lot in one breath.

Conan listened carefully, but his eyes were sometimes shocked and sometimes heavy.

He had heard of the famous name "Cthulhu" a long time ago, and had even done some research on the Internet.

That time, Qin Zhibo asked me for clues in the United States, and I learned about "Cthulhu" for the first time.

A search on the Noah's Ark Knowledge Website revealed that Cthulhu is a kind of legendary god.

The gods that appear in this legend are collectively called "The Old Ones".

Afterwards, Conan didn't know much about it.

Now hearing the name "Cthulhu" again, Conan was shocked, but also felt a sense of seriousness and mission in facing his fateful enemy.

After experiencing the parallel world, he is now very accepting of gods, monsters and the like.

He is a materialist. As long as it is proved that these things do exist, he will not deny them and will accept the rationality of their existence.

However, correspondingly, if he wants to verify the existence of something, he will not just believe one side of the story.

Even though this person was one of the detectives he admired the most...

"If Cthulhu exists, then why haven't there been any sea cities on Earth since the appearance of 'Ghroth'..."

Conan asked the key point.

Qin Zhibo was also prepared. After hesitating for a moment, he replied.

"This is what I am most worried about at the moment. Humans still know too little about the ocean."

"Humans have exploited less than 5% of the ocean, and it is impossible to monitor what is happening in the vast ocean in real time."

"So maybe some kind of change has already occurred, but we, as a group of people who are relatively slow to perceive Cthulhu, have not noticed it yet."

"That is why your uncle and aunt need to go out and investigate the situation of the local believers."

When Conan heard the titles "uncle" and "aunt", he frowned slightly as he was unable to completely accept this relationship.

He moved his numb butt and asked, "Where is the local area?"

"Innsmouth."

Qin Zhibo didn't beat around the bush this time and told Conan the location directly.

After all, no matter how urgent Conan is, it is impossible for him to fly to the United States by himself.

The reason for choosing this location is that Innsmouth is probably the place with the largest number of Cthulhu believers in the world.

The people there are simple and honest, and they are very open-hearted, so it is a good place for investigation.

Hearing the place name, Conan nodded in understanding.

In fact, he had never heard of this place name, but he could search it on the Internet after returning.

At this point, Qin Zhibo had finished explaining everyone's tasks for the next period of time.

The Kudo couple went to the United States to join various investigation organizations, including but not limited to the FBI, CIA, and ICPO.

The Black Feathers go to Innsmouth to investigate the recent reactions of believers and whether Cthulhu has issued some kind of "oracle" recently.

Also, try to research as many details as possible about the legend of Cthulhu.

For example, the specific location of R'lyeh and other conditions for the revival of Cthulhu.

Once we figure out these two points, we might be able to figure out the organization's next plan.

Qin Zhibo returned to Japan and tried to work with the undercover lurking in the organization to get the list of undercover agents planted outside by the organization.

Only by eliminating these undercover agents would the alliance become meaningful.

Conan and Kuroba Kaito...

Since he is a minor, he will be regarded as a reserve.

This series of decisions made Conan and Kuroba Kaito quite dissatisfied, but there was nothing they could do and they could only look downcast.

Seeing Conan's unhappy face, Qin Zhibo felt that he should give this kid something to do, otherwise he would definitely develop a problem and cause trouble again.

It just so happened that Qin Zhibo had something he cared about, which was not too dangerous and was more suitable for Conan to do.

"When I was investigating a case related to an organization 17 years ago, I found that someone was posting information about the case on the Internet."

"I looked up this person's network IP address and found his address, but I don't know who he is."

"When we return to Japan, I'll give you the address. Please help me check it..."

When Conan heard that it was related to the organization, he instantly perked up and his eyes lit up, feeling disappointed.

how to say?

Mosquito legs are meat too!
Moreover, this kind of investigator job sounds very suitable for me!

After Qin Zhibo finished his explanation, he turned around and thought of another thing.

"By the way, when you go back, pay more attention to Huibara Ai."

"Habara Ai?" Conan was a little puzzled, "What happened to that guy?"

Qin Zhibo thought about it for a moment and told Conan about it.

"In fact, Huihara Ai's mother, Miyano Elena, is still alive..."

Hearing this, Conan was stunned at first, then showed a shocked expression.

At this time, Qin Zhibo continued: "But according to the current situation, Miyano Elena is not on our side..."
