Chapter 1051 Going Out to Meet the God of Death

Qin Zhibo changed the name of the USB flash drive to "Sawada Hiroki's Cabin".

If Sawada Hiroki connected all the computers on the company server in this building, he would be able to search for the USB flash drive and understand that it was prepared for him.

Although Hiroki Sawada is a next-generation artificial intelligence that is dozens of times smarter than Siri and ChatGPT, its real core program is not huge.

As for the knowledge learned from Noah's Ark big data, it can be stored on public servers on the Internet, such as the knowledge website - Noah's Ark.

Otherwise, it took the real Hiroki Sawada two years to create the artificial intelligence "Noah's Ark" by himself. Even if he typed code day and night, it would be impossible to complete this workload.

Qin Zhibo stared at the USB disk capacity on the computer screen, and kept controlling the mouse with his right hand, refreshing the interface over and over again.

Although the computers here do not appear to be contaminated by the "green signal", it is difficult to determine whether the building's public server has been compromised.

And with current computer technology, it is almost impossible to deal with this "green signal".

He is different from ordinary computer viruses, more like a...spiritual projection?

Qin Zhibo shook his head to get rid of the green octopus head that kept flashing in his mind.

He checked his will value again, and now he still had 45 will points left, which was almost the same as an ordinary person.

After all this trouble... What is the relationship between Cthulhu and Green Signal?

Just when Qin Zhibo's thoughts were confused, the U disk space bar on the computer screen suddenly appeared without warning.

Qin Zhibo clicked in to check, and there was an additional folder of more than 4 gigabytes called "Noah's Ark".

This is the core code of Noah's Ark, which is the part of the original code created by the real Hiroki Sawada.

Although the capacity is not large, it is like a USB flash drive in a super body, carrying infinite possibilities.

Success!

Qin Zhibo was overjoyed and quickly operated the mouse safety ejection device.

[The U disk has been safely ejected]

As soon as the USB flash drive was pulled out, Qin Zhibo breathed a sigh of relief.

Immediately, the system prompts.

[Congratulations on completing the main mission: Saving Hiroki Sawada]

[Acquire 8000 general skill proficiency]

[Acquire 400 mysterious mythology knowledge and skill proficiency]

[Get 2 lucky draw opportunities]

After solving another main task, Qin Zhibo felt a lot more relaxed.

The main mission now is to witness the "Ancient One" with his own eyes and go to the secret land of Kadath.

Qin Zhibo checked his current character card, which showed a general proficiency of 26737, and he could even upgrade his investigation skills by two levels.

However, with the experience of upgrading his investigation skills last time, Qin Zhibo did not dare to try to improve easily in a short time.

But there is no need to keep the two lottery opportunities, just draw them now.

[During the lottery...]

[Congratulations on getting: Briefcase]

The first prop looks pretty good. Qin Zhibo visualized it. The box was made of genuine leather, a snap-on box, and it didn't even have a combination lock.

In fact, there is no need for a combination lock either.

Although the props obtained in the lottery are common things in life, even if there are occasionally some advanced technological products, there are substitutes for the functions that the props themselves can provide.

But gradually, Qin Zhibo noticed it.

Although the props themselves are not special, the biggest feature of system props is that they can be stored in the props bar and do not need to be carried on the body.

Imagine taking out a liquefied gas tank from behind your butt and blowing it up with one shot...

It is for this reason that Qin Zhibo is quite satisfied with the prop [Official Box].

Just put the important things into the briefcase, and then put the briefcase in the inventory, and no one will be able to find it.

Neither can Kaitou Kidd!

Qin Zhibo put the USB flash drive that had just been transferred to Noah's Ark into the briefcase, and then put the briefcase back into the toolbar.

It's safe now...

Qin Zhibo also drew the second lottery opportunity.

[During the lottery...]

[Congratulations on getting: Underwater Breathing Valve]

This is a new thing, it doesn't sound like an everyday item.

Qin Zhibo stretched out his right hand and embodied it in his hand. It was a copper handle with a copper tube bent out of the edge. At the end of the tube was a piece of red rubber in the shape of a mouth.

[Underwater breathing valve: Mycroft’s personal device, which can provide oxygen breathing for about 15 minutes at a time, and can replenish oxygen by itself after being left alone for a day]

Mycroft...Holmes?

He seems to be Sherlock Holmes' brother. This should be something from "Sherlock Holmes 2".

In the movie, Holmes and Moriarty both fell into a waterfall, and Holmes relied on this device to survive the rapid water.

Qin Zhibo opened his mouth and bit the rubber skin, pressed the button on the copper piece, and a mouthful of fresh oxygen was sprayed into his mouth, which was quite refreshing.

Yes, it’s a good thing.

At least it's not easy to buy this kind of stuff on the market right now.

Qin Zhibo put the [Underwater Breathing Valve] back into the toolbar and looked around again.

Most of the people on this floor had left, and there were a lot of noises in the corridor, as if an ambulance had arrived.

…

Qin Zhibo returned upstairs, where Suzuki company personnel and medical staff were providing emergency treatment to the unconscious staff at the scene.

After examination, it was found that these people did not have any external injuries, but their consciousness fell into a coma.

Someone called the surveillance cameras on this floor, only to find that all the cameras on this floor were turned off at the time of the incident, leaving no video evidence.

In response to this situation, people from Suzuki Company suspected that it might be an intrusion of commercial espionage, so they immediately called the police.

The police officer who came to handle the case was an acquaintance, Nakamori Ginzo.

Qin Zhibo was a little surprised to see Nakamori Ginzo leading the team.

"Nakamori Police Department, don't you only haunt places where Kaitou Kid appears?"

"What are you talking about?" Zhongsen Police Department frowned, "As long as it is a case involving an intelligent criminal, I will be responsible for it."

The so-called smart criminals, also called "gentlemen criminals", are simply smart crimes that mostly appear in the economic and financial circles.

Although Kaitou Kidd is a gentleman and commits crimes with high IQ, it is still essentially theft and falls under the management scope of Search Section 3.

However, before the Nakamori Police Department was promoted to the Tokyo Investigation Headquarters, he had been responsible for the case of Kaito Kidd. Considering that he had rich experience in "founding", the superiors assigned Kidd-related cases to his jurisdiction.

But since Kidd's "resurrection", Nakamori has obviously regarded catching Kidd as his main job.

…

According to the procedure, Nakamori Ginzo first asked Qin Zhibo and the people around him to find out what happened.

In this regard, Qin Zhibo had nothing to hide, and told what happened from the perspective of an outsider who didn't know what a "green signal" was.

After hearing what happened, Nakamori Ginzo looked suspicious.

"In other words, while you are playing the game, the staff here may have been controlled by someone..."

"Then when you came out, you broke the computer screen that was playing the animation, and these people lost consciousness?"

Qin Zhibo nodded, his eyes extremely sincere.

Because he didn't lie, he just hid some key information.

Then, Qin Zhibo suggested to the people at Suzuki Company: "I think the public server in this building may have been hacked. Before replacing the new server, others should not use the computers here to work."

Qin Zhibo didn't want more people to be affected by the "green signal", so he simply suggested changing the server.

At this time, a person from Suzuki Company held his chin and guessed: "Could this be made by Noah's Ark?"

"Is Noah's Ark involved again?"

Nakamori Ginzo glanced over his head and asked doubtfully: "Noah's Ark? What is this?"

Another woman stood up and explained to Nakamori Ginzo, "This is a very advanced artificial intelligence that was previously used in..."

When Qin Zhibo heard that these people were going to throw dirty water on Noah's Ark again, he had no reason to continue listening.

"Officer Nakamori, if there is nothing else, I will leave first."

Nakamori Ginzo was stunned for a moment, with a hint of reluctance in his eyes, "Are you leaving so soon?"

Qin Zhibo smiled and said: "What? You want me to stay and help you solve the case?"

Hearing this, Nakamori Ginzo, who has always wanted to be strong, was so angry that he blew his beard.

"Hmph, who needs your help? I can also solve the case myself!"

Qin Zhibo smiled and nodded, with undisguised approval in his eyes, giving him a thumbs up.

"Zhongsen Police Department, I admire your unruly demeanor."

"Farewell."

…

After leaving the Suzuki Building, Qin Zhibo drove back to his office.

During this period, Suzuki Sonoko took advantage of her lunch break to call Qin Zhibo to ask how her gaming experience was.

"Well...you can find out by watching the latest news."

Regarding the invasion of the R&D building of the Suzuki Consortium, it is estimated that it will easily become a hot topic in the news.

Back at the office, Qin Zhibo quickly opened the briefcase, took out the USB flash drive, and inserted it into his computer.

After waiting for a while, the computer started operating on its own and the Notepad program opened on its own.

Type a few lines on the blank notepad.

[Thank you, Mr. Qin]

[When I chose to trust you, I was right]

[How is the engineer who made the network signal capture software doing now? 】

Qin Zhibo knew that Sawada Hiroki was talking about "Itakura Taku", so he typed a reply.

[Unfortunately, this person is dead. I used the software he created to attract the "green signal" in the game]

After waiting for a few seconds, Sawada Hiroki replied.

[In this case, everything is over]

[According to my observation experience, in most cases, the "green signal" will not appear in personal computers, so the impact will be much smaller]

Qin Zhibo typed immediately, [No, not]

[Itakura Taku was employed by an organization, which ordered him to develop this kind of software]

[This "green signal" is likely to be related to an evil god called "Cthulhu"]

In the game, Qin Zhibo guessed the relationship between "Cthulhu" and "Green Signal" based on the image.

But among the babble from the Suzuki staff, Qin Zhibo heard a lot of other information about "Cthulhu".

Things like The Stars Align, R'lyeh...

Qin Zhibo had also heard these crazy ravings from the crazy people in Innsmouth.

That said, the relationship between Cthulhu and Green Signal may go much deeper.

The black organization may want to use the "green signal" to achieve something.

Now that Itakura Taku is dead, the software is in his hands.

However, judging from the situation at the "Cocoon" press conference, the organization did not bet on Taku Itakura alone. They should have other software engineers developing this type of software and have achieved success.

As a "future person", Qin Zhibo knows how popular computers will be around the world in the future.

If this kind of software is allowed to spread on the Internet, the entire world will be in crisis.

It was precisely because Taku Itakura foresaw this future that he chose to give up cooperation with the organization.

【organize? Are they the people Taku Itakura mentioned in his diary? 】

Sawada Hiroki also peeked at Itakura Taku's diary, which surprised Qin Zhibo. This artificial intelligence is so powerful.

Thanks to the technical limitations of this era, I don’t have any seeds stored in my computer.

[Yes, it’s them]

[These people are very powerful in reality. In addition to software, they also have in-depth research on biomedicine]

[About this organization, I have something to ask you for help]

Hiroki Sawada answered without hesitation, [Please speak]

Qin Zhibo typed his request on his notepad.

[This organization committed a case 17 years ago, killing a capitalist and a Japanese shogi player in New York, USA]

[This incident has been going on for a long time, and recently someone suddenly published detailed information about this case on the Internet]

[The person who released the information may be related to the incident. I want to find out the identity of this person. Can you help me find out the IP address of this person? 】

Sawada Hiroki paused for a second and then answered, [This is simple]

[Just open that webpage and let me take a look]

Qin Zhibo clicked on the web page and found the web page from his favorites.

The web page still publishes the same information as last time, with no new content updated.

In addition to detailed text annotations, there are also many photos of the murder scene.

Although these photos are not critical corpse photos, they are not accessible to ordinary people, not to mention they were deliberately released 17 years later.

【This is the page】

As soon as Qin Zhibo finished typing on the notepad, Sawada Hiroki immediately replied to the message.

[The IP address shows that it is 6-chome 24, Yoneka-machi, Tokyo, Japan]

So fast?

Qin Zhibo was a little surprised. As expected, artificial intelligence is still very efficient!

But what made him even more unexpected was that this person actually lived in Yoneka Town, only one block away from his office.

This gives you even more reason not to take a look.

…

Soon, Qin Zhibo drove to Mihua 6-chome, No. 24.

This is not an independent house, but an apartment building with probably dozens of residents.

Qin Zhibo walked to the mailbox in front of the apartment building and checked the names of the household heads one by one to see if there were any names he was familiar with.

But at this moment, several familiar voices came from behind.

"Uncle Qin!"

"Haha~ I met you here!"

Qin Zhibo's body trembled suddenly, and he had a bad feeling in his heart.

Looking back, I saw that it was indeed the Junior Detective Team.
