Daily Spy Life in the Detective Conan World

Chapter 719 The Winery's Scientific Research Purpose
"Wait a minute, wait a minute!"

Vodka interrupted impatiently, saying that after all that talk, not a single word was useful; it was all contradicting his and his brother's judgments. What exactly did he want?

"After saying all this, tell me, if it wasn't Noah's Ark, then who else could it be?!"

Thomas Sindora thought to herself, "Finally, they asked!"

So, there was actually a little ulterior motive involved; he just wanted to see how much Gin valued this matter.

You couldn't tell anything from the other person's fierce expression.

Vodka's expression was much more varied, indicating that Gin took the matter very seriously, but was simply too proud to speak.

"Actually, during this time, while searching for Noah's Ark, I was also investigating Hiroki Sawada's interpersonal relationships."

"Noah's Ark inherited everything from Hiroki Sawada, so it's very likely that it also possesses some emotional capabilities. The fact that it later helped Tadahira Kenmura expose my identity proves this point."

“I investigated Kenmura’s interpersonal relationships and found that in the past two years, every time he came to Japan, he would go to see one person!”

The meaning couldn't be clearer: even if this isn't Noah's Ark, it's still related to it.

And the person connected to it is very likely the mysterious person who appeared this time!

Gin never expected that summoning Thomas Cindora would yield such unexpected news.

"Who is it?" Gin asked with a wolf-like gaze, as this was crucial to his subsequent investigation.

"Joel Blair!"

"Jorbel"

Gin frowned, feeling like he'd heard the name somewhere before, but he just couldn't place it.

"Wait, the person you're talking about, could it be Xia Chuan's girlfriend?"

Gin forgot, but Vodka didn't. He was surprised to find that the name belonged to Xia Chuan's girlfriend, the female Tyrannosaurus Rex.

He still vividly remembers the scene at Twilight Villa where he and his companions were brutally beaten by the other side.

"Xia Chuan!"

Upon hearing this name, Gin's lips twitched involuntarily, before he smiled again, though the smile appeared particularly terrifying.

Thomas Sindora waited a moment and, seeing that Gin didn't seem inclined to continue, said, "Kenmura Tadahira has very few acquaintances, but this Joel is very suspicious. I suspect they knew each other a long time ago, but I can't find any evidence. It seems like they were deliberately erased."

"This corresponds to Noah's Ark, but I don't know why Noah's Ark didn't erase information from the last two years. I suspect that after Noah's Ark disappeared, it may have been hidden in the hands of this woman named Joel."

"The thing the boss asked me to research, although it had Itakura Takumi as a precedent, which reduced the workload a lot, we still didn't get our hands on his final results. If we could get Noah's Ark, we could not only speed things up, but even surpass the original plan."

"To create something even more perfect than Noah's Ark—artificial intelligence!"

By the end, Thomas Sindora's expression had become somewhat uncontrollable.

His smile was incredibly sinister and terrifying. Even Vodka felt a chill run down his spine when he saw it, thinking to himself that he was indeed the president of the Sindora Corporation. His evil capitalist demeanor could definitely stop a child from crying at night.

"Brother, it seems that Xia Chuan may have discovered us a long time ago. He has opposed the organization so many times. We can't let him live!"

"How could I not know?" Gin glared at Vodka. Vodka was the one who talked the most nonsense. If he could kill Natsukawa, he would have pulverized him at the Twilight Villa. He wouldn't be hiding in the shadows now, blocking the organization's path to wealth.

More importantly, the evidence left behind by Shinmei Nittaro may very well have fallen into Natsukawa's hands as well.

If that's the case, Vermouth losing her new name, Kaori, might also be related to Natsukawa!

That idiot! He knew perfectly well that Kogoro Mouri was connected to Natsukawa, yet he still went to find him. Otherwise, perhaps none of this would have happened.

Gin is one of the key points that he has figured out.

The gold was probably stolen along the way. It all started when Vermouth, having nothing better to do, went to a detective to solve the disappearance of Shinjiro Niina.

"I do know this Xia Chuan you're talking about. If I remember correctly, he also attended my press conference."

Thomas Sindora's expression was uncertain. Looking back now, she realized that her capture was definitely related to the other party.

The three looked at each other and realized that although Xia Chuan was only officially exposed to them at the Twilight Villa, he had long been a major stumbling block on the organization's path forward.

Moonlight filtered through the window curtains, and a hazy glow seeped into the room.

Three burly men dressed in black sat intently in front of the computer, their presence appearing particularly sinister under the bluish glow of the screen.

This situation lasted for about half an hour.

"nailed it!"

Thomas Sindora breathed a long sigh of relief, took his hands off the keyboard, and looked at Gin. "Although I didn't find Xia Chuan's name in the hotel's check-in information, after hacking into various Kyoto hotels and police systems, I found his name in the Kyoto Prefectural Police's record system."

"During the day today, the Gojo Police Station received a call and carried out an operation in the Gojo-cho 3-chome residential area. Among the people questioned, someone mentioned the name Natsukawa, and it was added to their file."

"Is this search system really that powerful? It can actually extract keywords from transcripts?"

Vodka was stunned. Although Thomas's face was somewhat unpleasant, his actions were truly impressive.

After carefully reviewing the information, he discovered that a group of children were playing a detective game when nearby residents called the police.

And this address
A hint of surprise flashed in Vodka's eyes. The police dispatch address was actually near the daytime outpost. So, he and his older brother had become like frightened birds, and no police had discovered them, just because of a few children's antics?
However, after seeing the name of the person granting bail, he felt something was amiss.

Mouri Kogoro.
He glanced at his older brother and realized that his brother's attention wasn't on the idol detective. Rather than getting involved, he decided to pretend he hadn't seen anything. After all, he still needed Kogoro Mouri to provide material for improving his observation and crime-solving skills.

"Ai Haibara and Anya"

Gin felt that these two names were somewhat familiar, as if he had heard them somewhere before, but he couldn't quite place them.

After a while, he seemed to suddenly become responsive, like a computer that had been lagging, and asked in surprise, "He has a child? Doesn't he only have a girlfriend? Where did this daughter come from?"

"Brother, didn't we mention before that he's married with two daughters whose mother is unknown, and his current girlfriend is Joel Blair? It's definitely him."

Vodka offered a word of advice.

Since his serious injury at the Twilight Villa, his memory seems to have gotten worse. He doesn't even have the same impulse as before when he sees Shirley's photo.
