Daily Spy Life in the Detective Conan World

Chapter 531 DNA Tracking Program
Xia Chuan squatted down in front of Anya, his expression slightly serious, and said, "Tell your father not to lie. The eyes are the windows to the soul. Look into your father's eyes when you speak."

"This wasn't stolen by Anya!"

Anya bit her lower lip, feeling a little wronged. Her father's expression showed that he didn't trust her. How could Anya, who was upright and honest, do something sneaky like Conan?
If Anya didn't steal it, then there's a problem!
"Ania, children shouldn't lie. If it's not true, please tell us why, okay?"

Kogoro Mouri also joined the fray. If you found this thing, you should return it to the owner as soon as possible, otherwise it will be difficult to deal with if the owner comes looking for it later.

The parents of these participants were either politicians or wealthy people, and as Xia Chuan's friend, he didn't want Xia Chuan to offend people over such a trivial matter.

"This was a gift from someone else."

Anya's voice was very soft, almost inaudible, but Xia Chuan, who was in front of her, still heard it clearly.

"Who gave it to you? Who gave it to you?"

"It was a package, given to me by Ai Haibara, and it contained this badge."

Natsukawa turned to look at Ai Haibara.

Haibara Ai thought for a moment, then nodded and said, "It seems there really is such a thing. Last night, before Uncle Natsukawa came back, a courier delivered an international package. The recipient was Anya, and I remember the package wasn't big, it was actually quite small."

"If it contains this badge, then it would be just right."

"International courier service?" Xia Chuan rubbed his chin. If Anya had international courier services, it was most likely related to that orphanage.

However, when he adopted Anya, he didn't leave an address at the orphanage, and he came to Japan immediately after the adoption. Logically, no one should know Anya's address.

"Ania, do you remember the sender's information?"

Anya shook her head vigorously: "I don't know, it doesn't seem to be written on it."

"Since it wasn't found, then it's fine."

It was a trivial matter, so Kogoro Mouri immediately turned around, stopped the waiter, picked up a glass of wine, and began to taste it.

Xia Chuan patted Anya's head and comforted her, "Father did not trust Anya just now, and Father apologizes to Anya here."

Anya sniffed and nodded. "Since I made a mistake, can I not do my homework tomorrow?"

Xia Chuan showed a helpless expression; he knew it.

However, Ai Haibara is also in a difficult position. She has already said that she would hand Anya over to the other party, so it is obviously inappropriate for her to interfere.

"I'll let you go tomorrow," Ai Haibara said expressionlessly, resting her chin on her hand.

Actually, it wasn't because of Xia Chuan, but because Anya had spoken up for her earlier.

Conan is supposed to be a sharp-tongued detective, but he didn't say a word just now. He's such an ingrate.

On the contrary, it was Anya, who was usually unreliable and had a lot of opinions about her, and who called her by her surname instead of her first name, who spoke up in support.

Haibara is inherently a rather hard-hearted person, but since coming to the Natsukawa family, she has gradually come to like this family in the daily life.

It feels so good to have a home.

Suddenly, a commotion broke out. Looking in the direction of the sound, everyone realized that the newcomer was Yusaku Kudo.

If a suit makes Kogoro Mouri look like a respectable person, then it makes Yusaku Kudo look like a successful person.

Coupled with the curve of his lips, his gaze fixed straight ahead, and each step he took was neat and proper.

There was no trace of the embarrassment he showed last time when he was caught between the distillery and the FBI.

"Wuhu, Conan, your old man's here!"

"Uh?"

Ran suddenly paused, then turned to look at Conan.

Conan broke out in a cold sweat. This wasn't the first time Anya had said he was his father's son. Although he really was, in Ran's eyes, he should be Edogawa Fumiyo's son.

"Ania always talks nonsense, doesn't she, Uncle Natsukawa?!"

Conan gave him a meaningful look, and Natsukawa had no choice but to echo him.

When Yusaku Kudo went on stage, Professor Agasa appeared next to Conan.

Worried that Anya might say something inappropriate, Conan deliberately went to a corner where she couldn't see him.

After exchanging a few words, Professor Agasa took a badge out of his pocket and handed it to Conan.

"This was given to you by your dad. He's the story designer for this game, and he specifically asked Sindora Corporation for it."

Conan wasn't interested and shook his head.

"Really? One of the stories in the game is based on London a hundred years ago. You really like Sherlock Holmes, don't you?"

"forget it."

Conan shook his head again. A game involving a child would definitely be boring.

Considering that Professor Agasa was too old to participate, Conan accepted the badge.

Hmm, Ai Haibara's gaze was a bit strange just now. Giving her the badge will help ease the tension, and she can also keep an eye on Anya in the game.

As for the other three members, he's there.

If the three boys don't behave, who knows what they might do during the press conference? This is a high-class occasion, so they shouldn't act recklessly. It wouldn't look good if they were kicked out.

"Wait a minute. What are they doing?"

Conan accidentally saw three little ones huddled together with a group of children.

The three little ones, like experienced salespeople, were gesturing wildly and talking to a group of children dressed in what looked like high-class clothes. Each of them held a gold card in their hand.

If I'm not mistaken, it should be a limited edition card featuring Kamen Rider.

Those cards are very hard to come by. Anya always has good luck when she takes Bond out. All of these cards are drawn by Anya herself. It's her way of winning people over. Almost every member of the Junior Detective League has one.

It seems they're planning to exchange their gold cards for badges.

They actually brought this thing out for the sake of this game.

Just as Conan was about to walk over, the lights in the hall suddenly went out, and a spotlight shone on the stage, where the "cocoon" game pod that had been seen earlier slowly rose up.

In the darkness, Thomas Sindora, president of the Sindora Corporation, walked out with a gloomy expression.

Looking at that gloomy face and heavy footsteps, Xia Chuan seemed to see the dark cloud that had shrouded London a hundred years ago.

Xia Chuan followed the other person silently to the basement level.

Besides being the power distribution room, this is also where the core console for the "Cocoon" game is located, and the console room is also Tadahiro Kenmura's office.

At this moment, Kenjiro Kenmura remained expressionless inside the room.

His plan with Xia Chuan was that during the press conference, he would specifically call Thomas Sindora over, and Xia Chuan would take the opportunity to go to Thomas Sindora's office and steal evidence of tax evasion.

To prevent any problems from arising, Joel will cut off the surveillance cameras on the floor where Thomas Sindora's office is located and in the elevator during this period to keep Natsukawa in the dark.

As for Yuri, he didn't appear. He seemed to have returned to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs for work. However, before leaving, he told Joel that if there were any problems, he could call anytime and he could help.

The knocking interrupted Kenjiro Kenshin's thoughts, and he turned to stare at the door.

"Enter."

With a gloomy expression, Sindora pushed open the door.

His expression was already familiar to Tadahiro Kenmura, and besides, calling the other party over this time had a somewhat threatening connotation, so his expression was perfectly reasonable.

Where is the DNA tracking program?

Sindora looked around and, after confirming that there was no one else besides Kenmura Tadahira, secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Now that she could carry out the plan, she could proceed.

However, before that, we hope that Tadahiro Kenmura can give him the DNA tracking program.

The Syndora Corporation also has this program now, but the difference is huge. Hiroki Sawada's DNA tracking program can access DNA data from all databases in the world without anyone's consent, while his cannot.

To put it bluntly, the DNA tracking program he currently possesses is at best just a faster version of software.

"A descendant of Jack the Ripper from a hundred years ago, I really didn't expect that!"

"Yes, you already knew."

Sindora's eyes flashed with even more murderous intent. The other party even knew this; he couldn't be allowed to live.

In fact, Kenmura already knew, just like when he learned of Hiroki's death, it was Noah's Ark that told him, and he didn't even tell Joel and the other two.

Artificial intelligence is terrifying; such intelligence absolutely cannot fall into the hands of anyone, absolutely no one!

He would carry this secret with him until his death.

Xia Chuan stood at the door eavesdropping, and when he heard "DNA tracking program", he suddenly paused.

If DNA tracing software is used, could Joel's parents be identified?

Screening through a network of blood relations!
It is feasible to some extent.

"Give me the DNA tracing program, and I will announce to the world that I am a descendant of Jack the Ripper, thus fulfilling your wish."

You think I'm interested in this?

Kenmura Tadahiro smiled coldly. If it was really just for this, then why did he accept Xia Chuan's help and directly release Thomas Cindora's DNA data? So many rival companies and even corporate spies were eager for this information.

What he wants is to help Hiroki get revenge and make that damned Sindora, who killed Hiroki, repent in prison!

"I want you to atone for Hiroki's death!"

Tadahiro Kenmura's eyes were filled with anger. "Hiroki did commit suicide, that's true, but it was because he learned your identity and you had been pressuring him to develop that artificial intelligence called Noah's Ark for a long time. He knew the consequences of successfully developing it, which is why he chose to commit suicide."

"It's too late to say anything more now. I didn't get that artificial intelligence either, did I? Give me the DNA tracking program, and I will announce my identity after the press conference. I can also apologize for Hiroki's death."

"If apologies were enough, what would we need the police for?"

Kenmura Tadahiro muttered something to himself, but he knew that the time was right. Natsukawa probably already had the evidence on Sindora's computer. In order not to alert the enemy and to buy time, he needed to keep the enemy occupied.

"The DNA tracking program is on this USB drive. I can give it to you first. I've put the source code into the 'Cocoon' game. After the press conference, when you announce your identity in front of all the reporters, I will open-source the source code to you!"

He wasn't actually lying. After Noah's Ark gave him the DNA tracking program, he incorporated its source code into the "Cocoon" game. Whenever someone completed the game, the game control center would automatically download the source code.

"I see."

Sindora smiled and, as Kenmura Tadahina turned around to retrieve the program, pulled out a dagger from somewhere.

"The main program is on this USB drive."

Kenmura Tadahira turned around and waved the USB drive, but unexpectedly, Sindora's smile became incredibly ferocious as she charged towards him.

The gleaming dagger pierced his heart as easily as cutting through tofu.

"you"
