The establishment of the Time Travelers Alliance began in the first year of Conan

Chapter 66: Evacuation to the Outside of Time (Please subscribe, please vote QAQ)
"Like Kudo Shinichi?"

"How could that be!" Shigenobu Hitomi reacted somewhat violently. "Just as you said, the entire 'escape plan' has been scrapped!"

Apparently, she noticed too—

The potential meaning behind the plan being brought to her and to Lin Sheng by some people at the research and even executive levels.

"Any plan that attempts to keep the Alliance in the [Loop] forever will not succeed. The Alliance's goal has always been to end the [Loop] and restore the world to normal!"

Lin Sheng stared at the complicated plan in silence for a long time.

But in the end he agreed.

After all, everything the executives said was true.

As the confrontation between the entire alliance and the dual timelines becomes increasingly intense, he cannot really allow the alliance's core base and headquarters to remain under the noses of the two timelines.

Lin Sheng recalled the data reported by the Operational Level [Reality Intervention Department]—

The RSI value around Conan fluctuates more and more violently.

In a recent incident, after an amnesiac task force member was recovered by the Alliance, the instruments on him even found an RSI recording value of over 200.

It is clear that the [story timeline] has been gathering strength, like a steel ruler that is constantly being compressed by the alliance.

Regardless, the dominant power in the [loop] is still the [story timeline].

In the next [cycle], the alliance will definitely face a very fierce backlash.

This means that in the next [cycle], any phenomenon that could lead to the discovery of the entire base or mass amnesia among all members could occur at any time.

The entire Tokyo is now the powder keg and pressure point of the Conan universe.

Except for the absolutely critical moments in the [cycle], or those necessary intervention points in the plan, those most critical nodes.

From now on, the Alliance will not use most of its resources to monitor Conan's daily behavior.

Compared with the overall shortening of action time caused by the timeline rebellion, the necessity and importance of detecting some routine data now seem to be becoming less and less.

Thinking of this, Lin Sheng continued to instruct Shigenobu Hitomi:
"Package those backup bases and try to secure them in this reality by handing them over to Dr. Agasa under the guise of investment."

Who says forgetting all this won’t interfere with the [story timeline]?

Wouldn't it be better if we just let someone who is still in the [loop] and remembers all this take charge of the overall situation?

"We also have Dr. Agasa. We'll select a group of task force members who are willing to take on TDD and become Dr. Agasa's employees," Lin Sheng said. "The doctor is a key figure in the storyline."

Lin Sheng decided to let the alliance fix the reality that Dr. Agasa owns a company before the [cycle] starts.

"He's now able to escape the control of the storyline to a certain extent. In addition to the gray side in the [real timeline], the Alliance must always have its own operational power in the [story timeline]!"

……

In Lin Sheng's office, Dr. Agasa sat in the chair opposite him.

He had heard everything the alliance had to say about the "evacuation plan."

Looking at the information provided by Lin Sheng, Dr. Agasa had a serious expression on his face, and he looked at Lin Sheng through his thick glasses.

"I roughly understand it."

Dr. Agasa looked at all the risks marked on the plan.

He sighed, "Has the situation really come to this?"

"The case is bound to happen, Doctor."

Lin Sheng's voice was very firm. "Logically speaking, judging from the abnormal fluctuations in Conan's RSI value yesterday, we should have been in the [Loop] by now."

"But we still don't have it," Dr. Agasa understood Lin Sheng's meaning, "which means it's still recovering."

"Yes, Dr. Agasa."

"But after the next [cycle], it's not certain. Once the storyline reacts, there won't be a second chance for us."

In fact, Lin Sheng somewhat regretted putting too much pressure on the [Story Timeline] before, but now things have happened.

"So this is probably our only chance."

"According to the Narrative Studies Department's calculations, the subsequent 'Maple Leaf Gold Coin Case' is not part of the main storyline, and this incident did not result in any casualties."

Not being the main storyline means there is a possibility of skipping it.

For the executive level, it is really difficult for them to find a more suitable "cycle" than this incident.

"As long as you act according to the plan the moment the Alliance creates a [loop] for the Maple Leaf Gold Case in the [real timeline]..."

So for the league, at the moment when the 'Maple Leaf Gold Coin Case' [cycle] occurred.

The Alliance ripped the entire base from both timelines simultaneously. Immediately afterwards, a task force from the Alliance activated a micro-reality anchor and solved the case.

And before the rebellion begins in the [story timeline], Professor Agasa immediately guides the next "case" to attract Conan's attention.

So at that moment, the league was not only trying to jump through the Maple Leaf gold case.

At the same time, it is necessary to smoothly "accelerate" the entire [story timeline] and connect the previous and next [cycle] -

The Valentine's Day murders.

"If we succeed in doing this, not only can we avoid the risk of exposure and allow the Alliance to break away from the dual-timeline narrative, but we can even seize the initiative in the next [cycle]."

"What if we fail?"

Dr. Agasa frowned slightly. The benefits of this plan seemed to be very high indeed.

So what chips will the alliance put on the line?
"That's why we're taking this opportunity, because the risk is so small compared to the reward."

It’s not like the big thing the league did last time.

The RSI value of the entire world will decrease during the [Loop], which means that it will be easier for the Alliance to interfere with the timeline.

And the alliance now also has sufficient resources.

Even if the synergistic effect of the Akashic Chain and the Space-Time Cycle Structure Generator cannot allow the entire alliance to break away from the timeline, it can definitely stabilize the existence of the alliance.

Not to mention the Gray Side vest owned by the Alliance. If it really doesn't work, the Alliance will put on the Gray Side vest themselves and fight in the ring.

The worst-case scenario is that future action will be greatly hampered.

But it will happen even if you don't.

The biggest loss the alliance suffered due to the failure of the plan was only a few action-level teams and the disguised company provided to Dr. Agasa.

Dr. Agasa lowered his head and pondered for a while. Finally, he nodded slowly and said, "Okay, I accept this plan."

"However, you need to provide more resources, especially detailed background information on the task force members."

"Because I have to make sure these people can fully trust me, and at the same time I have to provide them with enough motivation to complete the task."

Lin Sheng took out a carefully organized folder from the table and gently pushed it in front of Dr. Agasa.

"Don't worry, all the information is ready."

"It contains background information on every member of the task force, even their secret messages."

"If any of them lose their memories after the [Loop], you can convince them with the secrets they wrote themselves."

……

As the action layer measures from around the Maori office the RSI peaks higher day by day.

In the final stage of the plan, the alliance forces that had been lurking near the office began to gradually withdraw.

In consideration of supporting Dr. Agasa and preventing some unnecessary accidents——

All the other shops and residences on this entire street were transferred by the Alliance to the doctor's company account.

It is under the name of Future Watch Company.

After going through numerous proxy holdings and complex financial operations, it is almost impossible for anyone to find the name of Dr. Agasa.

At the same time, the floors of the entire underground base began to change under the adjustment of the Sustainable Infrastructure Department.

In order to better conform to the model calculation results and reduce the damage to the base structure during evacuation.

The alliance base, which originally had a layered structure underground, began to turn into a sphere.

A three-dimensional spherical maze is formed with the core layer where Lin Sheng is located as the center.

Those task forces with high CS values, technicians and scientists within the alliance were moved to floors near the core layer.

——Don’t miss even the slightest advantage.

"Everything is ready, Master ZC-01."

"Well, I already know." Lin Sheng glanced at the report handed over by Shigenobu Hitomi, "Now that the equipment has been adjusted--"

"Have the executive team notify Dr. Agasa to keep an eye out for any signs of a possible [loop]. We are fully prepared."

Shigenobu Hitomi's tone was filled with excitement, and she nodded vigorously.

"Yes! Your Excellency ZC-01!"
