Conan Rick's Investigator

When the head of the submarine completely hit the reinforced glass outside the base, the entire ship finally reached a state of relative stillness in an instant.

Under the huge pressure of the submarine, the tempered glass makes a "cracking" sound, which sounds very creepy.

Tiny cracks crawled on the outer layer of tempered glass like spider webs.

The next second, the submarine slowly moved away from the reinforced glass, and the cracks on the glass stopped expanding.

In the dead silence, everyone's eyes were wide open and they all held their breath.

Finally, I breathed a sigh of relief.

Thanks to Canxue Qianwu, Sijio Tunjinshou and Lingping for the rewards!

Chapter 1490: Zero, do you believe in parallel worlds?

The glass of the Pacific buoy is divided into two layers, and cracks appeared on the outer layer of glass due to the impact of the submarine.

But fortunately, the glass did not break, so as long as there is no secondary impact, it will be fine.

In the main control room, everyone just breathed a sigh of relief when news came from Akai Tsutomu.

He has captured the escaped spy of the Organization.

After a while, the unconscious "Grace" was taken to the confinement room inside the base, commonly known as the "little black room".

After tearing off the human skin mask that had been broken by Akai Tsutomu, the real face of "Grace" was actually a man with a thin face and corn braids on his head.

His face was input into the facial recognition system, connected to the Frankfurt monitoring center to search across Europe, and his face was easily found.

Based on the timeline, it can be basically confirmed that he is the person who sneaked into the Frankfurt monitoring center a few days ago.

"This man is very skilled, maybe he is related to that ship..." said Akai Wuwu.

Mary Akai next to her turned to look at Wuwu Akai, who had a look of worry on his face.

"Wuwu, your face..."

"It was just an accidental rub, it's no big deal."

There was a small bruise on the cheekbone on the left side of Akai Tsutomu's face, which was caused by the fight with "Grace" just now.

In response, Akai Tsutomu gave him two broken ribs in return.

"Cough cough..."

Kuroda Heibei coughed twice, turned his head to look at Director Makino next to him, and asked: "Regarding this person's identity, did he replace the identity of 'Grace', or did he kidnap the real Grace and take her place?"

Makino replied: "I have just sent this report back to ICPO headquarters. The feedback we have received so far is that Grace's identity information is all fake. In fact, there is no such person."

"When did he join the police organization?" Kuroda Bei asked again.

“About five years ago.”

After hearing this answer, the faces of the people present became heavier.

The organization's spy sneaked into the Pacific Ocean buoy as a world-class engineer and worked diligently for 5 years without being discovered...

And before that, in Curacao, I also worked in the Japanese National Police Agency for two years.

Just then, there was a knock on the door of the confinement room.

A staff member conveyed the news that Qin Zhibo and others had returned.

Kuroda Heibei, Akai Tsutomu and others left the confinement room and went to the elevator entrance to greet them.

It took some extra time because Qin Zhibo needed to first bring the submarine to the surface of the sea and then enter the Pacific buoy from the entrance of the offshore platform.

In addition to Qin Zhibo, Bourbon, Kiel and Curacao also followed.

Now their identities have been exposed in the organization and they have been officially cleared of all charges.

Of course, there is also the captured Vermouth.

"Send her to the infirmary for treatment first, and then conduct a surprise interrogation."

"There is also a storm at sea. Visibility is very poor tonight. We must be on guard against another attack by the organization..."

Just when Qin Zhibo walked out of the submarine, he found that it was already dark outside and there was a storm of moderate intensity.

The submarine's lifeboat is generally not powered and can only float to the surface and wait for rescue.

Gin and the others left in the lifeboat and disappeared on the sea, which could only mean that there was a large ship nearby to pick them up.

In other words, the crisis of Pacific buoys has not been completely resolved.

Hearing this, Kuroda Bei turned to Makino and asked, "Director Makino, when will the support from the Maritime Self-Defense Force arrive?"

Makino checked his watch and replied, "We just left from Nagoya Port an hour ago. It will take about 2 hours to get here."

Kuroda Bei had a serious face, and his earthworm-like burn scars reflected the light, which was a bit scary.

"It's best to be on high alert during this period and not give the enemy any chance to take advantage..."

"I understand. I'll go back and raise the base to level one alert."

Director Makino turned and left.

The undercover agent and other members of the Justice League got to know each other.

Among them, Bourbon and Kuroda Bei are old acquaintances. Kuroda Bei is Bourbon...

No, it's Furuya Rei's direct superior.

In addition, Furuya Rei and Akai Shuichi are also old enemies. At this moment, they just exchanged glances with each other and didn't say much.

Kiel and Curacao are relatively unfamiliar to these people.

"This is Mizunashi Rena, her real name is Hondou Eisuke, and she's an undercover agent for the CIA."

"This man was once a member of the organization and Rum's confidant, Curacao, but now he has turned to the light."

"These two are Akai Tsutomu and Akai Mari, both from MI6."

Qin Zhibo acted as the middleman and introduced each person's identity to everyone.

Everyone is a practical person, and at this critical moment, there is no need for polite words. They just exchange glances and know each other.

However, after the introduction, Qin Zhibo couldn't help but ask why Curacao was wearing an eyepatch on his right eye.

Curacao then revealed that Rum had taken her eyes away after she returned to the organization last time.

However, Rum did not kill her, probably because he thought she was still useful.

This also reminded Qin Zhibo of when he met Rum in the Angel's House, Rum was wearing an eye patch on his left eye.

Combining these two points, Rum should have transplanted Curacao's right eye to his left eye in order to obtain that super memory.

However, as his power within the organization collapsed, he removed the eye.

……

Next, everyone went to the confinement room.

On the way, Qin Zhibo explained to everyone what had just happened in the submarine.

Especially when they heard that the true purpose of the organization's attack plan was to abandon the submarine and let all the organization's spies follow the submarine to crash into the Pacific buoy, everyone's expressions were stunned.

Because this shows that the organization has known the identity of the undercover agent for a long time, but has never exposed it.

"I think it was not Gin who designed this plan, but the boss of the organization..."

"Because given Gin's personality, I think if he had known the undercover's identity long ago, it would be difficult for him to hold back until this moment to show his fangs."

Qin Zhibo guessed that Gin must have received a text message from the organization's boss when he was chasing Bourbon in the submarine, which made him change his mind.

This means that the organization's boss observed everything that happened in the submarine clearly through remote monitoring.

Including using that weird "wall-penetrating technique" to invade the submarine...

His face is now most likely known to the organization's boss, Karasuma Renya.

Karasuma Renye had been to Enkai before, and he would definitely recognize that he was using the Kunyang people's particle-based wall-penetrating technique.

If I fail to bring him to justice this time, I will definitely become his target in the future.

However, as soon as Qin Zhibo made his speculation, Fūya Ling raised his own doubts.

"Mr. Qin, I don't quite understand what you said..."

"If the boss already knew our undercover identities, why didn't he just get rid of us?"

Although Scotch's identity was exposed by accident, his identity had been hidden very well over the years, and even Vermouth, who he often came into contact with, did not realize that he was an undercover police officer.

Not to mention the boss of the organization whom he had never even met...

Faced with Fūya Rei's question, Qin Zhibo's eyes darkened. After thinking for a moment, he turned his head and looked at him solemnly.

"Zero, do you believe in parallel worlds?"

Chapter 1491 The Boss of an Organization that Travels Between Two Worlds

"parallel world?"

When Qin Zhibo finished speaking, everyone present was stunned.

Two seconds later, a look of doubt appeared in their eyes at the same time.

It's not that they haven't heard of the avant-garde science fiction concept of "parallel world", but when Qin Zhibo said it so seriously, no one understood its meaning.

"Yes, it is the parallel world you think of. I have been there in person..."

"That world is mostly the same as this one. There is also someone in that world who is almost the same as you, but the difference is that the timeline of that world progresses faster than this one."

"For example, if event A is happening in this world, then as long as you travel to a parallel world, event A will most likely have already happened on the timeline of the parallel world."

Qin Zhibo has been to parallel worlds twice, once with the help of Mi-Go's racial talent to travel through parallel time and space.

The second time was with the help of the soul exchange of the Yis people, and exchanged souls with Conan from a parallel world.

Of these two methods of time travel, because the Yis are a great race that transcends time and space, their soul exchange allows them to choose bodies in different time and space to exchange souls, which is a directional exchange.

Mi-Go is a simple space exchange. Unless a space-time anchor point is established using the power of ore, the time information after the crossing will conform to the original time laws between the two worlds.

When I first traveled through time, the princess of the Kingdom of Vespania was visiting Japan. But when I returned to the present world, the queen of Vespania had not even been assassinated yet.

This means that although the parallel world is parallel to this world, its timeline is slightly faster.

And Karasuma Renya used the ability of the Is people to exchange souls with his younger self, and then returned to the present world through the time and space gate built by Mi-Go. In addition to completing a complete timeline, he should have obtained more information than the current world.

He may well use this information to change things.

The effect is similar to the time travel that will restart when the whole team is wiped out, but Karasuma Renya is not as abnormal as constantly traveling back in time. He only traveled back in time once.

But this time was enough for him to change many things...

Qin Zhibo told everyone present his full thoughts, which immediately shocked everyone.

Although the logic behind this is hard to believe, they know that it is impossible for Qin Zhibo to tell a science fiction story at this critical moment.

Kuroda Heibei asked first: "You mean the boss of the organization used the timeline difference of the parallel world to know the undercover identities of Bourbon and others?"

"That may well be the case."

Qin Zhibo nodded, and although his tone was not entirely sure, his eyes were very firm.

"If that's the case, then everything we're going to do next is within his expectations, right?"

Qin Zhibo turned to look at Akai Mary and replied, "Not entirely. The boss of the organization cannot continuously travel through parallel time and space, so there are limits to what can be changed and predicted."

"And there is another very important point, that is, the 'me' in the parallel world is already dead..."

"I am the only individual in these two worlds now, so the trajectory of time that I have changed personally cannot be predicted by the boss of the organization."

When Qin Zhibo traveled through the parallel world for the second time with the power of the Yis people, he originally wanted to directly possess the soul of "himself" in the parallel world, but he learned that there was no "himself" in the other world.

"'You're' dead?"

Akai Mari narrowed her eyes slightly, with shock flashing in her eyes, but she didn't continue speaking.

Akai Tsutomu quickly accepted the situation and continued, "Besides the undercover information, is there any other information the organization boss might know?"
