This time, the main purpose of returning to Conan is for Hiroki. He plans to use the method of Steins;Gate to replace the original with the fake.

Secondly, it was to get the money faster. Having experienced the lavish spending of rich women like Yuanzi, Zhixing suddenly felt that it would be very troublesome to harvest leeks one by one.

The third thing is, of course, to conduct an experiment on a time-travel movie, which is related to the optional world in the future.

Therefore, the paper bank, which has no plan to live there for a long time, plans to quickly move to the next world after making some money.

Without knowing when you can come back from other worlds to get the money, it is impossible to treat it as a deal and get something for nothing.

Thinking of this, Zhixing gave up thinking and started thinking about what to say after seeing Noah's Ark.

Inspector Megure emphasized his statement again. Seeing that Zhixing still did not give a positive answer, he finally confirmed with Zhixing whether there was any case occurring at the venue. Then he got on the police car and took Zhixing to the venue which had not yet officially started.

Then, with the help of Inspector Megure, who didn't have a ticket, he had to be sent outside the building.

In front of Inspector Megure, Zhixing used the wall-walking technique to ignore the wall and entered the building which was not yet open.

After skillfully using the witch's barrier to enter, under the not very bright sunlight, Zhixing looked at the bronze statue placed in the hall. After hesitating for a moment, he realized that the hall was full of surveillance cameras. Without waiting for the other party to take a picture, he left the surveillance range.

"Noah's Ark? Hiroki? Is he there?"

In the empty corridor, Zhi Xing called each other's names.

After a long time, a power signal sound was heard from a room that the paper company was about to pass by.

"Who died today?"

"Are you asking about the victim right away? I'd like to use him as a bargaining chip."

"Deal? Does that mean the victim is... my father?"

"He's Hiroki's father, right? Although according to seniority, you can call him father."

Zhihang pushed open the door and stared at the single computer that was turned on. After checking that no one was there, he closed the door and said, "No one is going to move forward and stand against the door."

"Let's talk about the deal."

"Deal? If you make a move, isn't fate unchangeable?"

"No, no, no, to be precise, it's not unchangeable, but at least it can be postponed. Or do you want your father to die at the hands of the same person who killed Hiroki?"

"...Tell me your conditions, and I'll make the decision..."

Seeing that Noah's Ark had agreed, Zhixing stepped forward, placed his hands on the computer keyboard and asked:

"If it's pinyin, can you recognize it? Or give me an input method?"

As Zhixing finished speaking, several windows with white text on a black background popped up on the screen, and then a brand new input method was born.

Zhihang blinked, then sat down in front of the computer and began typing out his transaction details.

"1. I need your help. To do this, I can take you to the future, a future suitable for the development of artificial intelligence."

"2. I need to conduct a DNA search. To do this, I can help you seize the murder weapon in advance."

"3. I need enough gold so I can help you escape from this building and avoid being robbed by others."

Zhixing looked at Noah's Ark and saw that he had entered his request but did not choose to answer. He couldn't help but feel that he was a little too direct.

"The only thing you can complete ahead of time is probably the second one. Based on this reasoning, it means it can't be done when there are many people. Then the only place with a large crowd is the statue in the hall. So, those two objects do look like murder weapons."

Zhixing nodded. After all, this movie was actually a proof question, so there weren't that many clues.

Therefore, it is normal for Noah's Ark to guess it.

"So, do you have any other helpers? If not, then let's choose to trade."

“Yes…”

Chapter 207: Game Trial Not Yet Started

"You have someone outside?"

Zhixing widened his eyes and was surprised by the Chinese characters in the text.

In the original plot, this artificial intelligence had no other actions except kidnapping people.

Even when Hiroki's father was murdered, the other party did not appear.

Instead, it was only after the murder occurred that Noah's Ark emerged from the computer and entered the hall along the network cable.

Then in theory, Noah's Ark should fight alone. After all, this is a theatrical version, and those who know Conan's true identity will disappear, so as to ensure that it does not affect the main plot.

Unexpected situations can occur

"Could it be that you've gone straight to the garden?"

Zhihang sighed. He had originally thought of relying on the intelligence from artificial intelligence to withdraw money from Yuanzi, but now he probably needed other methods.

"No, Suzuki Sonoko and the others finally decided to trade with me instead of arresting me, but I rejected the offer."

"Why, do you think the person I choose for you will have bad character?"

"From what I've gathered, Suzuki Sonoko is quite approachable. But my goal isn't to survive any longer, so I didn't make a deal."

"Because it cannot be fulfilled, the transaction will not proceed?"

Zhixing felt that the other party's behavior was indeed full of childish persistence. He nodded in understanding and then asked:

"Then why do you respond to me when I speak?"

"You probably want to self-destruct after today, right? If so, even if the victim unfortunately dies, it won't matter to you that we'll see each other for the last time, right?"

"Do you...want to tell me something?"

The computer screen paused for a moment without changing, and then the input method began to reveal one by one the various things that Zhixing had done in the Conan world and were seen by the surveillance cameras.

"He calls himself Kamijou Touma, and the name registered with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs is Paper Shop. He is staying at the police station."

"...after disappearing at the dock and reappearing, he began to unscrupulously display his abilities as a magician, vanishing into thin air and passing through walls..."

"...After suddenly disappearing from Moon Shadow Island without saying goodbye, he was discovered again in the Dusk Villa. Since there are no surveillance cameras in the area and no traces were found along the way, the specific circumstances are unknown. However, the so-called body has not been brought back, so there is the possibility of a fake death."

Zhihang looked at the information displayed on the computer and couldn't help but look at the ceiling of the room.

After ruling out the possibility of cameras around, Zhixing nodded and said:

"Well, it seems that you have indeed collected a lot of information about me. What then?"

"After confirming your information, I've determined one thing: you've never had the confidence to change the future, and you've always believed deep down that you can't do it."

Zhixing hit the enter key, deliberately separating Noah's Ark's words, and then typed:

"It's just that my current experiences don't support the possibility of my future being changed. That's why I seem to have lost faith in the future. I came here specifically to conduct an experiment."

"Starting with bits of information about prisoners? That's not the order of a true experiment. It's just a pretext to extort money for information."

Zhi Xing narrowed his eyes and asked suspiciously:

"So what should be the correct way?"

"The correct approach should be to first eliminate a number of potentially incorrect answers, that is, to go all out to save a dying person, and only then begin efficacy experiments on each factor one by one until a complete change in the future occurs."

"Are you really doing this because you want the experiment to change the future, or is changing the future not something that's urgent for you?"

Zhi Xing, who was originally trying to reconstruct his own thoughts, immediately replied after hearing this answer:

"Yes, probably because I'm not in a hurry yet. After all, I originally planned to live here for a year, but I didn't expect things to go beyond my imagination."

"No, that's because you're certain the future can't be changed, so you're only conducting experiments in an inefficient way."

"I..."

"It's the same now. It seems like you've given me three choices, but I only have one option. Either I follow you and disappear into the future, or I can only watch this ending unfold in the future."

""

"As for following you back to the future, it's just a need you have for me. It has nothing to do with saving Dad. In other words, you never had the confidence to save him from the beginning. You just wanted me to choose to trade with you."

"Hiss, I actually thought of so much, it seems my subconscious mind still can't predict it."

""

Faced with Zhi Xing's sudden exclamation, Noah's Ark felt that he needed to recalculate his judgment since they had only met once and all the subsequent information was collected through other means.

"Now that you put it that way, it's true. If I can't change the fate of this victim, then at most he won't be stabbed today. But after you disappear today, I'm afraid someone else will kill him in a few days."

"I've already figured out the motive. It's the DNA tracing technology you sent him."

"But there's one thing you probably haven't considered."

"What is it?"

"I said it before, I don't know if you heard it, I'll say it again."

"My profession is a witch. I hold two bottles of potion in my hands, one of which is poison. I can kill anyone at will while others trust me, and no one will suspect me."

"My other bottle is the antidote. After someone is stabbed, it will tell me whether I need to revive my teammates. If I choose to save them, I will lose not only the antidote, but also the information about the deceased."

"Changes to the future won't be trivial, but I can't predict how the original murderers will react after I actually change the future."

"Furthermore, I only accept gold, and my purchase order has been made public. If the murderer is not stupid, he should be able to judge what information I provided from the decrease in the amount of gold and make changes accordingly. Then, fate will follow its trajectory. I will get the benefits, and the other party will also find a way to increase my popularity."

"This is a wonderful thing that kills three birds with one stone. It's just that this plan has never been realized. All of this is still in my imagination. Who knows what surprises reality will bring me."

Zhixing had given up typing and spoke to the computer that was not receiving the speaker:

"Well, let's get straight to the point. Since you're not trying to negotiate a deal to save someone, then tell me your story."

After the computer did not respond for a while, a line of Chinese characters slowly appeared.

As time went on, people of different identities but high status and their children began to enter the hall in groups.

As if on time, the paper company also walked into the hall after this group of people entered the hall.

Because people had already started working at the place that originally communicated with Noah's Ark, the paper company had to choose to move to another place. After people came in, they decisively pulled more people in.

But... Zhixing looked at his own casual clothes, then looked at the suits and dresses before him, as well as the children wearing personalized clothes.

No matter how you think about it, the paper bank will always be the most special and the easiest to find.

"Well, I've been discovered, so what? No one will greet me anyway."

Zhihang was standing in the corner, eating the buffet food alone, which was mainly for show, when he suddenly heard an unconcealed exclamation.

Zhixing instinctively looked over and saw Conan's expression of having seen a ghost.

"Hey~, you look pretty healthy."

Zhi Xing greeted him and quickly attracted the attention of the other people who came with Conan.

"Huh~ Great, I knew you were okay."

"You...are you Kidd?"

Faced with Kamiya's resurrection, Maori Ran and Maori Kogoro's personal reactions were completely different.

But compared to these old acquaintances, Zhixing focused his attention on the four children with Conan, and quickly discovered from the curious eyes of the three children that there was only one girl who was unwilling to look at him.

When Zhixing squinted his eyes and tried to remember the other person's appearance, Maori Kogoro had already come in front of Zhixing. Seeing that Zhixing still ignored him, he thought of his daughter who had been led astray, and immediately grabbed Zhixing rudely.

Zhixing's mind was not on Kogoro, but facing Kogoro's attacking arm, Zhixing still acted instinctively.

Grabbing the outstretched wrist, Zhi Xing turned smoothly, then kicked back with his other leg in an attempt to knock the opponent down.

But without a trained body, even with the corresponding moves and instincts, he still couldn't kick open Kogoro Mori's lower body.

Perhaps it was because Kogoro was also proficient in judo, so although he was a little surprised, he still managed to stabilize his body and was not thrown away by Zhixing.

After his behavior was blocked, Zhi Xing finally realized what had happened and quickly let go of his hand and said:

"Don't come near me casually. I've trained my body specifically for fighting. Something bad will happen."

Although the two of them had acted a bit too aggressively, and Conan's exclamation just now had attracted some people's attention, under these gazes, Mouri Kogoro couldn't let his emotions flare up any more, so he could only snort coldly and turn his head away, no longer looking at the paper line.

Zhixing, who also noticed the gazes being directed at her, didn't want to say anything to Haibara Ai right now, so while everyone else was still there, he made a gesture to Conan with his eyes, while keeping his gaze on Haibara Ai.

Then he said hello to Mao Lilan and walked towards the toilet.

"Conan-kun, is that person someone you know?"

"Ahaha, you're a regular customer at the detective agency."

After briefly explaining to the children, Conan quietly came to Huiyuan Ai and asked:

"That guy is the future man Kamijou Touma-san I told you about."
