Stay away from Conan.

"Huh? Really? Did my application pass? Can we use large enough monitoring data to test the 'cross-age identification system'?"

In an independent laboratory at a polytechnic in Boston, the United States, there was only a girl with long brown hair sitting here——

Her long bangs are combed to both sides and tied in braids at the back. She is a beautiful and confident girl who looks less than twenty years old.

If Gao Yuan and Xiao Ai were here at this time, they should be able to recognize that the other person is the developer of the "cross-age identification system" that the two of them investigated before, Naomi Argent.

After making coffee and opening her laptop, the girl seemed to be about to start some research, but just now, the girl received a phone call.

Listening to the news coming from the phone, the girl stood up excitedly and asked the person on the phone for confirmation.

In response, the person on the other end of the phone sent back a very positive response.

From this, the girl's face couldn't help but be filled with unbearable joy. It seemed that what she had been waiting for for a long time had finally arrived.

So, impatiently, the girl continued to ask:

"Where is the monitoring data? When can I use it?"

"It's Japan's public safety camera."

The person on the other end of the phone replied:

"After a while, the relevant link will be sent to your email, and you can test it right away."

"Um, okay. Thank you very much!"

Suddenly, I heard that I could use the data for testing right away, but the source of the data is still the most promising public security camera in Japan, maybe...

You'll find it soon...

With such expectations, the girl thanked the person on the phone.

In response, the person on the phone responded:

"You don't have to be so polite. We should thank you for contributing such a practical system to the peace of this world. After a while, when the entire hardware equipment manufacturing site is complete, you are welcome to join us!"

In this way, after hanging up the phone, the girl in a good mood sat back in front of the computer, opened her mailbox interface, and began to wait expectantly for the arrival of the email.

And sure enough, just as what was said on the phone just now, the girl Naomi didn't wait long. The email signed "International Criminal Police Organization (ICPO)" appeared on the mailbox interface with a red dot marked as unread.

Immediately, Zhi Mei couldn't wait and immediately clicked on the email. When she saw the link and the password that needed to be used with the secret key, Zhi Mei couldn't help but feel a little excited and nervous. She took out the physical secret key, connected it to the computer, and entered it. At the same time as the password, it also opened the remote connection to the server of the "Cross-Age Identification System".

In this way, after a series of complex operations, the function of reading the database is connected to the system through the URL sent in the mailbox. After a short test, it is confirmed that there is no problem in operation.

Finally, Naomi, who had waited for this moment, was a little excited and opened the specially placed photos from the computer——

I saw that the photo I opened first was a group photo. The photo showed a group of young children standing in a row and taking pictures.

But among them, what Naomi paid attention to was a little girl who was only five or six years old——

She has short brown hair and slightly curly hair, and has the beautiful and cute appearance of a mixed-race person, but she is somewhat out of place with her peers who are similar in age and have different skin colors. She even seems to be deliberately excluded and isolated from the people around her. At the very edge.

In this way, it is exactly the same as what Huihara Ai looks like now.

However, Naomi doesn't know Haibara Ai.

This photo was taken at the end of the summer camp when we first came to the United States.

In this way, when looking at this photo, a trace of nostalgia and sadness appeared on Naomi's face. She silently maintained this action for a while, and finally muttered:

"I will definitely find you and apologize to you, Shiho..."

——Surprisingly, the "Haibara Ai" in the photo is not Haibara Ai at this time, but Miyano Shiho who was really a child back then.

After saying this, intercept the photo, only the above picture of Miyano Shiho, then import it into the system, click Start, Run...

Then, there is another photo, also when he was a child, showing Miyano Shiho in the scene of children playing...

Just like in the beginning, one after another, I found many photos of Miyano Shiho from different angles, and imported them all into the system through the system.

Just like that, after waiting for a while, after the system scanned Miyano Shiho's appearance and conducted AI modeling analysis, it began to match the monitoring database.

So, after finishing these things and looking at the system that has started running, all Zhimi can do now is to wait quietly, waiting for the system to feedback the results...

Then, after a while, the system's result display interface began to pop up with a data screen showing successful matching——

The first thing that was displayed was a photo on the street. The grown-up Miyano Shiho, wearing a pink coat, was chatting with a 20-year-old black-haired woman with an Asian face. Walking with a smile.

Immediately, when she saw the picture that popped up, although the girl had changed into a girl, she still had the familiar short curly brown hair. Naomi immediately recognized that the other person was the grown-up Miyano Shiho.

And not only that, more matching pictures were found soon afterwards——

Including Miyano Shiho buying daily necessities alone in a convenience store, or sitting in a coffee shop drinking coffee with the girl with long black hair in the first picture that popped up...

After all this, when Naomi saw that she had indeed found Miyano Shiho, who had grown up and returned to Japan and had no news from him, through the photos of Miyano Shiho when he was a child, Naomi was still a little nervous at first, but then she immediately became excited and endured it. She couldn't help but smile and jumped up from her seat. She even felt that she couldn't contain the excitement in her heart. Naomi jumped up and down with a little dance -

Fortunately, this is my own separate laboratory, and no one saw me getting so excited that I almost lost my temper.

In this way, while Naomi was so excited, her still-running system continued to find other scenes of Miyano Shiho from the surveillance database——

For example, in the cafe, in addition to the girl with long black hair, another young woman with long blond hair began to frequently appear in the same frame as Miyano Shiho.

Later, based on these three people, another boy with short black hair and a pure Asian face appeared, about twenty years old, entering and leaving the restaurant with Miyano Shiho and the others, and Miyano Shiho pulled the boy and seemed to be going somewhere.

At this point, as the excitement gradually calmed down, Naomi, who was in a happy mood, regained her composure, sat back on her seat, and looked at the new screen displayed on the system with a smile -

Including the scene of Miyano Shiho pulling the young man.

Seeing this, Naomi looked at the scene in the picture, and the corner of her mouth could not help but reveal a gentle smile. It seemed that in her heart, Naomi had some suspicion about this situation, and she was happy for Miyano Shiho...

However, after a while, as a new scene appeared, Naomi, who had a gentle expression, suddenly became serious——

I saw that the person who appeared in the picture was no longer the grown-up Miyano Shiho, but the same Miyano Shiho that I had met as a child at the summer camp...

A little girl with short brown curly hair appeared in the picture!

And this girl looks exactly the same as Miyano Shiho back then...

At the same time, there were basically several children of the same age as the girl who appeared around the girl at the same time, and those children basically appeared repeatedly...

"This..." In this way, Naomi felt a little unbelievable when looking at the pictures matched by the "cross-age recognition system" in front of her——

Obviously, the surveillance footage retrieved is recent, right?

Why……

Shiho, do you already have children?

While thinking this, Naomi quickly found the boy who originally appeared with the grown-up Shiho in the picture, appearing at the same time as this child!

Therefore, subconsciously, Naomi felt this way.

However, soon, Naomi realized something was wrong——

The time is not right.

This child is at least five or six years old, but five or six years ago, Shiho should still be studying in the United States, and Shiho was not very old at that time...

then……

This system of my own obviously uses photos of a certain person in a certain period to find all the images of that person in the surveillance.

Therefore, the one who should be matched in this meeting is Miyano Shiho!

Even if the child looks exactly like Shiho, the algorithm of my system cannot confuse two people who just look alike...

Therefore, through the system's matching calculation, the system determines that this child...

Is it Miyano Shiho himself?

It was such an unbelievable conclusion that when Naomi thought about it, she almost felt like she might have gone crazy...

However, this system was developed by ourselves. In order to prevent the possibility of misidentifying people who look similar, we have specially trained the AI ​​algorithm in this area and also conducted tests...

Therefore, it is impossible for this system to make such mistakes.

but……

Miyano Shiho, who was already an adult, turned into a child again...

How could it happen?

With a wry smile, Naomi was a little confused when faced with these recent surveillance images.

But soon, her attention turned to the boy who had appeared next to Miyano Shiho and the girl——

Although I can't be sure what the relationship between this girl and Shiho is, the boy appeared around both of them at the same time. This is the only connection!

Thinking of this, Naomi stopped the system and continued to run like this, and then intercepted and saved a part of the pictures that had been called up. Then in this, Naomi intercepted a few separate pictures of the boy, and then turned to his The appearance data was entered into the system. Finally, on the start interface, I selected all the databases I could connect to and started matching the boy's data——

As a result, after a while, the results jumped out.

Only this time, the boy in the first scene...

With brown hair styled in a fashionable style, this person looks high-spirited...

At this moment, Naomi was suddenly shocked——

I have seen this boy before.

In the beginning, in order to find Shiho's whereabouts, my system matched the surveillance databases of various universities, so I knew the school where Shiho attended.

At the same time, in the scene when Shiho was in college, that stylish brown-haired boy actually appeared next to Shiho!

Now, because the boy has changed his hairstyle, and even his face has changed a lot as he grows up, for a while he didn't recognize that the two were the same person!

So, the two of them still keep in touch after graduation?

As for this boy, he knew that he was Shiho's best friend from Japan when he was studying...

name……

It seems to be called...

Mitarashi Kyosuke?

……

And when Naomi discovered through the system she developed that "Mitarai Kyousuke" had a connection with Miyano Shiho after graduation, the "Mitarai Kyousuke" who Naomi thought had changed her hairstyle was now The "wise and lofty" person had already taken an international flight and arrived in New York, USA.

At the same time, Dr. Agasa and Miyano Shiho, whose identity is Haibara Ai but turned into a child, are also traveling with him to this foreign land.

In this regard, Dr. A Li was extremely surprised to see that Xiao Ai actually came to the United States as Xiao Ai and successfully passed the immigration inspection——

Unexpectedly, Gao Yuan could actually obtain such an identity.

In this case, the identity information for Shinichi's pseudonym Edogawa Conan was also created by Takato. Does that mean that Conan's current identity is actually the same as Xiao Ai's identity, and it is official from an official perspective?

Thinking of this, Dr. Ali couldn't help but feel helpless——

Originally, I thought Gao Yuan had obtained a set of fake documents.

But now it seems that even if it is fake, what is the difference between it and the real thing?

I really can't tell that Gao Yuan is so powerful in some aspects...

In this regard, Dr. Ali, who was thinking this way, had no intention of asking Gao Yuan for details. After all, such an approach must have a lot of involvement behind it, and Gao Yuan would definitely not tell, so he simply didn't ask.

In this way, after the three people passed the immigration inspection at the airport, they arrived outside the airport. They immediately saw two old acquaintances standing there, seemingly waiting for the arrival of Gao Yuan and others——

I saw that they were Kudo Yusaku and Kudo Yukiko.

The two of them stood outside the airport and seemed to have calculated the time. When they saw Gao Yuan and others walking out of the airport, Kudo Yusaku simply waved to the three of them, while Kudo Yukiko waved her arms in an exaggerated manner. , smiled and shouted to the three people:

"Hello--

"Dr. A Li, Xiao Gaoyuan, and Xiao Ai, over here!"

Seeing this, Gao Yuan and others naturally walked up, greeted Kudo and his wife, and exchanged a few simple greetings. Then they felt that there was no need to continue chatting outside. As the two people who came to pick up the plane, they guided them Following Gao Yuan and the other three people, they got into a car——

"Haha, I really didn't expect that, Yusaku, you are right, Xiao Gaoyuan really came with you this time!"

In the car, as Yusaku Kudo started the vehicle, Yukiko Kudo, who was sitting in the passenger seat, looked a little surprised and said so.

"This is easy to predict...after all, this is my suggestion!"

Kudo Yusaku said calmly:

"With no contact for so long, you must have a lot of questions to ask us, right?" (End of Chapter)
