"That's right, but unfortunately he was too late in the end."

Odagiri Toshiro said.

There is actually very important supporting evidence for this point. According to Inspector Megure, when the police told Cindy that there was still one spy left to catch, she left the venue without saying a word, her face grim, and no one knew what she was doing.

When he returned, he seemed to suddenly become indifferent to the spy.

While this may not be much evidence, when people start to view others with prejudice, the actions of the person being observed will appear suspicious.

"The artificial intelligence 'Noah's Ark,' according to the Old Testament of the Bible, was an ark of hope that God instructed Noah to build to sweep away the corruption of the earth. Only the pure and spotless could ride this ark to reach the new era."

"The murderer had been using various accidents to punish evildoers, but in the end, he used this power for his own selfish desires."

Lin Jiashu spoke calmly.

A brief silence fell over the task force.

At this moment, one of the police officers below raised his hand and stood up to ask:

"Minister, but if those accidental murders were all orchestrated by him using artificial intelligence, what grounds should we use to arrest him?"

“Yes, and that Thomas Sindora is the chairman of a major American company,” someone chimed in.

"..."

Toshiro Odagiri fell into deep thought.

He had certainly considered this issue, but the problem was indeed as his subordinates had said: they had neither evidence nor grounds to arrest Thomas Sindora.

Especially at this critical juncture with the emergence of artificial intelligence and the "cocoon," mishandling could have a significant impact on public opinion.

At that moment, a police officer rushed in from the outside.

"Reporting to the team leader! Another strange case has occurred! This time, the dead are the editors of those newspapers that have been constantly smearing and vilifying Thomas Sindora."

"Let me see!"

Then it was the police's turn to handle.

How the police should arrest Thomas Sindora is indeed a problem.

Firstly, there is no evidence, and secondly, the other party is a prominent figure in the United States, so even if they wanted to arrest him, they would likely be extradited back to the United States.

However, this is not something that Lin Jiashu needs to worry about.

After successfully directing the task force's attention to Thomas Cindy and then to Noah's Ark, neither of these things held much value for Lin Jiashu.

All that's left is to wait.

Waiting for Sindora's death, waiting for Noah's Ark to disappear from everyone's sight—

The key to the accidental killing is simply a program that anyone can use. As long as the police are convinced that it is the power of artificial intelligence, even if "Noah's Ark" self-destructs, even if accidental killings occur in the future, they will only think that someone has obtained artificial intelligence and is hiding in the shadows to kill people.

"We didn't manage to get Rum's name."

"However, we obtained the names and appearances of Binga and Curaçao."

Lin Jiashu raised the corners of his mouth.

Both of these are good cards.

Aside from their outstanding individual abilities, both of them are trusted and valued confidants of Rum. Hayashi Yoshiki can obtain various information about Rum through them, and may also use them to get rid of Rum if necessary.

Then there's the assassin organization that Hayashi Yoshiki jokingly calls the "zoo."

Noah's Ark obtained very deep information about the people in that organization—it can be seen from the episode of Magic Kaito that the scene in which the BOSS of that organization appears from behind is in an office with a large floor-to-ceiling window, where he is using a computer to listen to his subordinates' reports of failures while replying to "Spider" with text messages.

This card is undoubtedly the stronger one.

Lin Jiashu needs to confirm things slowly and try to see if he can take over the entire assassin platform quietly.

Mobilizing the entire organization to fight against the brewery and search for Karasuma Renya is far better than Hayashi Yoshiki going it alone.

While pondering, he took out the Death Note.

Since we already know that the brewery is determined to acquire Hiroki Sawada, let's let him join in the fun.

If you finally get a great hand, you have to play it.

"I...I understand..."

"I will entrust Hiroki to you."

"I won't try anything funny! I'm just going through some trouble right now. My company is in a bit of turmoil, and I hope you can help me!"

Thomas Sindora answered the phone with a sense of unease.

On the other end of the phone was that dangerous man named Binga.

"So, you're a descendant of Jack the Ripper from a hundred years ago?"

"Hey……"

"Your issues are completely irrelevant."

"Keep a close eye on that kid Hiroki Sawada, and don't even think about getting involved in any underhanded tricks with him... We've been watching you all along, you can't hide it from us."

"We will take Hiroki Sawada away tomorrow."

Binga's tone on the other end of the phone was somewhat sarcastic.

Through his words, Thomas Sindora quickly realized that there were probably still some undiscovered spies from that organization around him.

But he really has no will to resist now, he just knows how to bow and scrape.

After hanging up the phone, Cindy's expression was somewhat uncertain.

His current situation is very bad.

His bloodline as a serial killer makes him look at people with strange eyes wherever he goes, especially after the sudden death of the newspaper editors who had been smearing and attacking him. People cursed him even more fiercely.

The descendants of a serial killer are also serial killers; this title was practically and directly bestowed upon him.

Japanese police also came knocking because of the newspaper editors who had died.

They strongly expressed their desire for Sindora to cooperate with the investigation, but her lawyer rejected the offer on the grounds of a lack of evidence.

The problem is that Cindy doesn't know how those editors died either. He thinks about it and wonders if it was someone from that organization who secretly did it.

But what is the purpose of this?

Meanwhile, Hiroki Sawada was in his room.

Under the watchful eye of surveillance cameras, he, who was forbidden from modifying the source code of Noah's Ark, had just used Noah's Ark to eavesdrop on Sindora and Binga's conversation.

Am I going to be taken into that evil criminal organization?

He was somewhat worried.

Hiroki could already foresee that he would be forced by that organization to develop programs that would be more conducive to their crimes, and that Noah's Ark would also be used by them for some terrible things.

Cindy is right.

If the world is full of locked rooms, then the person with the key is the king. Similarly, if artificial intelligence falls into the wrong hands, it can be the button to destroy the world.

This is absolutely not acceptable.

"I'm sorry, Noah's Ark."

"It's alright, Hiroki."

A line of text appeared on the computer screen.

Noah's Ark's personality is based on Hiroki himself; it can simulate Hiroki's will and think accordingly, so it can naturally know what he is thinking.

"...I really had a lot of fun playing the game that day."

"Although I didn't manage to beat the game in the end."

He looked a little disappointed, but he was smiling.

Hiroki couldn't help but think of Hayashi Kanojo at this moment.

He was very grateful to Lin Jiashu for giving him this opportunity to participate in the game, even though it was Lin Jiashu who prevented him from successfully completing the game... but it was really very interesting.

It's a pity that I'll never be able to play it again.

Chapter 281: The Vengeful Jundu

A black car was parked at the foot of a tall building.

Two men in black discreetly entered and took the elevator directly to the upper floor.

Thomas Sindora was already there waiting.

Seeing these two men in black who were clearly not to be trifled with, he dared not say a word and led them unsteadily to the door of a room.

Click.

He opened the door and said to those inside:

"Come out, Hiroki, your people have arrived."

"..."

Hiroki Sawamura glanced at him, then lowered his head and said nothing.

After confirming his identity, the two men in black said directly, "Hiroki Sawamura, come with us."

"it is good."

Hiroki obediently walked over.

He walked alongside two men in black, while Thomas Sindora watched him but remained silent for a long time.

The more you see something, the deeper your fear becomes.

After learning of the organization's terrifying power and methods, Thomas Sindora stopped thinking about how to resist—after all, he was just a businessman.

Two men in black discreetly led Hiroki away.

The car started and drove straight down the street. One of the people in the passenger seat took out his phone to report.

"Hiroki Sawamura has been received; we'll take him there now—"

He was speaking when suddenly the sound of breaking glass came from inside the car.

The windshield cracked instantly, and the man in the passenger seat, still holding his phone, suddenly jerked his head back before slowly and weakly tilting it to one side—a bloody hole had been ripped into his forehead.

The sudden turn of events left the driver in black no time to react; the next second, a hole was blasted into his head.

"Hello? Hello?!"

The phone, which had fallen onto the seat, came from a contact's surprised voice.

Two bullets, coming from different directions, took two lives in less than two seconds.

Hiroki was a beat too slow to realize that the two people had suddenly died.

In the dimly lit bar

Because it was early, no one was drinking.

Chianti held a dart in his hand, half-closed one eye, aimed at the target in front of him, and threw it suddenly.

The dart easily hit the bullseye.

"Once that computer genius joins, hehe, I really can't imagine what the organization will become."

Vodka was somewhat excited.

As an IT professional, he was well aware of just how incredible a genius Hiroki Sawada was, capable of creating something like Noah's Ark.

It's no exaggeration to say that they alone could overturn the world.

Gin did not respond to him.

He was flipping through the newspaper in front of him.
