Chapter 1059 Setting up the Game
"Sorry to disturb you suddenly. I just feel that the situation is a bit tricky." Seeing Tang Ze's cold expression, Curacao reflexively lowered his head and avoided his gaze.
She was carrying out the infiltration mission as planned, but when she was looking down at the Metropolitan Police Department from a high place, she happened to see the distinctive "Karazawa Akira" following the famous detective into the Metropolitan Police Department building.
She had some messages she wanted to communicate to the other party, or to be more blunt, she needed Kumail's help.
"There must be something wrong since he is looking for me so secretly. Tell me, what is Rum doing crazy again?" Tangze put on a slightly disgusted expression and walked to the window where Curacao was standing.
Her iconic long hair was tightly bound by a wig, and her heterochromatic pupils were completely covered by cosmetic contact lenses. If it weren't for the obvious facial features of Curacao, it would have been difficult for Tang Ze herself to recognize her.
But once you recognize her, it's easy to figure out why Curacao is here.
"I told you in advance that Rum wanted me to investigate the undercover in the organization." Curacao seemed unwilling to get too close to Tang Ze, and took a half step back, "I'm handling this matter."
"Yeah, I know. I've also replied to you. If he has any request, then you should do it." Tang Ze tilted his head and pretended to be indifferent. "He wants to find an undercover agent. That's the organization's need. It has nothing to do with us. Whether he can find one or not, you can't blame us."
It is an indisputable fact that the organization has been infiltrated and turned into a sieve.
If you are dissatisfied with the new or old employees you recruited, you should go to HR. It is obviously inappropriate to let a little Karami like us take the blame.
As for the undercover situation revealed by the investigation...
After Karasawa was on guard, he had already subtly hinted to Furutani Rei to delete the information about himself, Karasawa, and Morifushi Kagemitsu from the archive, and also to do something about the information about undercover agents from other intelligence departments.
Curacao didn't cause any trouble when he got the real information. Now that it is a modified version, there will be no risk at all. Tang Ze is of course calm.
"On the contrary, it's you who rashly contacts me in this identity. It's easy to arouse suspicion. Every side." Tang Ze didn't seem to buy it. "If you want to complete the task smoothly, or if you want to pretend to obey and secretly disobey and hinder the progress of the task, it's your own problem. Why are you looking for me?"
"I can't help it." Curacao tightened his fingers around his elbow and whispered, "Rum seems to be eager to know something and keeps pushing me."
In any case, this data is crucial considering the information that the Japanese police have already investigated and obtained in terms of organization.
If possible, she didn't want this thing to fall into Rum's hands, but precisely because it was important, Curacao couldn't refuse Rum's urging.
"I could have delayed it for a while, but there seems to be some movement in the public security department recently, so I have a rare opportunity to go in and out. I have to at least sneak in to confirm the situation, otherwise, Rum will doubt my efficiency..."
What else could it be? Of course, it was the boss of Team Zero who was taken back to the police academy and was dealing with the information about Pramya in a chaotic manner...
"Is Rum in a hurry?" Tang Ze, who knew the situation well, raised his eyebrows and caught a message, "Did he find something?"
Curacao glanced at him quickly, pursed his lips, hesitated for a few seconds, and did not answer.
Like Kumail, he is a victim who has been deeply harmed by the experiments. It is reasonable for him to grasp a glimmer of hope for freedom and want to move towards a future without constraints.
This was also the reason why he made a deal with Kumail and assisted him in stealing confidential information from many organizations and leaking information from the laboratory.
But at the same time, it cannot be denied that both of them have fallen too deep into the quagmire of the organization and their hands can no longer be clean.
For example, the face that Kumail is using now...
Of course Tangze did not miss Curacao's look.
This woman, under the influence of KA drugs, has restrained yet extreme emotions, and every micro-expression of hers is meaningful.
"Oh, he found something related to Tang Ze's family." Tang Ze's smile widened, "He thinks that what you need to get is related to them?"
"...He got the memory card. For now." Curacao glanced at Tang Ze's face again obscurely, "He now wants to find out whether the cocoon of Noah's Ark fell into the hands of the Japanese Public Security Bureau."
Strictly speaking, this memory card was brought back to the organization by Kumail.
That was also the starting point of this code name, a kind of secret signal to once again launch an attack on the research results of the Tangze family.
There are disagreements and conflicts within the organization over where the memory cards and the research data contained in them should go.
It took Rum a lot of trouble to get it, even as the second-in-command of the organization.
Therefore, he attached great importance to and was eager to use the technology that could be used based on this information.
"After reading the information, he began to think that it was a wrong decision to abandon the virtual reality technology related to Noah's Ark. He carefully studied the relevant information of the game trial meeting that was not made public..."
"When we chose to abandon the development direction of Noah's Ark, didn't we make a judgment on this technology?"
"Yes, but Rum believes that the key is not the virtual reality itself, but the nerves, or the way the consciousness is connected to the machine." Curacao's face showed a cautious expression. "He believes that the machines detained by the Japanese public security may be the ones used by the 'Phantom Thieves of Hearts'. You were at the scene yourself, you know this very well."
Tang Ze expected this and raised his eyebrows, revealing a subtle expression that seemed to be a smile but not a smile.
Well, he knew what Curacao was talking about.
To be more precise, he knew what Rum was obsessed with.
How should I put it, strictly speaking, this matter is still Tang Ze's fault.
The story begins with the death of Thomas Sindorah and the aftermath of the game trial.
Thomas Sindorah, no matter what he did in his lifetime, until his disappearance, due to his special identity as Hiroki Sawada's adoptive father, he always had some technical information related to Noah's Ark in his hands.
He was certainly not qualified to understand the relationship between cognitive science and Noah's Ark, but the machines he brought to Japan were themselves proof of this fusion of disciplines.
The appearance of Joker and others and the "defection" of Noah's Ark made the organization feel insecure. They decided to take drastic measures and kill Thomas before he could reveal part of the organization's secrets.
This is what Tangze took Noah to do.
After that, once the organization has recovered from the risk of exposure, it will be exponentially more difficult to confirm where those machines are.
The team and machines that Sindorah brought to Japan were thoroughly searched by the Japanese public security and the FBI who were involved in the matter. No matter how efficient Kumail, Bourbon and others were, there would inevitably be parts that could not be destroyed in time.
This originally had little impact, because it was impossible to find any traces of the organization from those things, but Rum, who had obtained the version of the information fabricated by Tang Ze, obviously developed a desire for these things.
This time, Curacao was sent out to carry out the mission. Compared with the so-called "undercover list", people like Rum who put personal interests above the organization actually care more about this part.
Tang Ze put his fist to his lips, pretending to be thinking, and swallowed the smile that was about to break out.
He had Ireland make so many preparations, even going so far as to deceive Hondou Eisuke who was completely unaware of this, all for this moment.
He also said that we should see when to send some signals to this guy to see if he would take the bait. Rum himself came here following the scent.
It is true that opportunities always come to those who are prepared.
"I roughly understand what he wants to do and what he wants you to do." Putting down his palm, Tang Ze's expression has been adjusted to be cold and sinister again, "He wants you to record some information. The so-called list is just a cover."
Curacao lowered his eyes but did not deny it.
It is just a list of undercover agents of an organization, and an incomplete version unilaterally investigated by the Japanese Public Security Bureau.
Curacao's specialty is the unimaginable memory ability achieved by using four colors.
When Rum's eyes had not yet deteriorated due to illness, Curacao was a great assistant to him and could quickly memorize and store the information he screened out. It was this advantage that Rum valued at the time, and no one knew better than him how great the memory limit of Curacao was.
It's a bit tasteless to let such a character go into stealth investigation alone.
Even if this list of names is long, long enough to make some people loyal to the organization despair, it is just a list of names. Is it necessary to use special memory abilities? Wouldn't it be the same no matter who was in charge?
Unless, what he really needs Curacao to remember is something longer and more complex than this, which is extremely difficult to remember through normal reading...
Thinking of his cousin who seemed reluctant to go to work recently, and the new psychopath who was secretly gritting his teeth at the other end of the corridor, Tang Ze soon came up with an idea.
"Then I have a good idea." He used the uncertain words of negotiation, but his tone was completely unquestionable. "Do you want true freedom? Do you want to completely destroy Rum? If so, then do as I say."
----
By the time Tang Ze returned to the conference room, everyone had apparently finished discussing the bride's interpersonal relationships.
Except for a few policemen who insisted on close protection as required by the mission, the backbones of the Investigation Section 1, such as Juzo Megure, had already left the meeting room one after another.
This eased the atmosphere in the meeting room, and everyone was gathering around the newlyweds, discussing their upcoming wedding.
"Shibuya Hikaru Building is not an easy place to book. We spent a lot of effort to hold the wedding there! We booked it several months in advance, and the price is not low." Muranaka Tsutomu waved his hand with a kind of complacency, "There is a helicopter landing platform on the rooftop of the building. After the wedding banquet, I will take Chris and sit in a helicopter to fly around Tokyo..."
"Doing this in a wedding dress? Wow, that sounds so romantic." Mao Lilan chuckled approvingly, while secretly glancing in the direction of her father.
Under the premise of life-threatening situation, he still made such a slightly risky decision. It can be seen that this former police officer has been completely immersed in the sweetness of love. He is in high spirits and looks very happy, and his rationality is not particularly available.
"That will cost a lot of money, right?" Kogoro Mouri also echoed the sentiment.
His eyes flickered across Muranaka Nu's face, but he couldn't bear to ruin the good mood of his old superior.
"It's actually not as expensive as you might think. The price of renting a helicopter is much cheaper than a wedding banquet." Muranaka Tsutomu shook his head and patted Christina's hand. "We still have to go to the building in the afternoon to confirm the wedding process and discuss it with the master of ceremonies."
With the intervention of the police, this wedding is destined to be unusual. There are many things that need to be confirmed and explained in advance and still need to be dealt with.
"Of course." Christina was brought back to her senses by his pat. She turned her eyes away from Tang Ze who was walking back quietly, and chatted naturally, "We have caused so much trouble to the police, of course we have to cooperate as much as possible... Thank you for your help, Detective Maori. Oh, I was busy talking about those things just now and almost forgot to ask. Is this your daughter Maori Ran? I have also seen her in some reports. She is much more beautiful in person than in the photos."
When asked this, Mao Lilan could only stand up, introduce herself to her, and also introduce the few people who came with her.
She couldn't say that the others were just here to eat for free, so she had to change her explanation: "Although they are just kids, they are also very good detectives and have helped the police a lot. And this one is my classmate, Tang Ze Zhao. He, well, has also helped a lot and is very familiar with the police officers in the Investigation Division."
That’s not the case. Because of his special status, he had to take statements less often than others.
The police officers of the First Investigation Division were worried that too many written records would add unnecessary trouble to Tang Ze's protection observation period, so unless the matter was important, they would not take the initiative to collect Tang Ze's written records...
"Yes, this time the Investigation Division thought of providing you with personal protection and did it so perfectly. It's all thanks to Karasawa." Maori Kogoro laughed, "He's a smart boy, very clever."
The corners of Pramiya's eyes twitched almost uncontrollably, and the hand holding Muranaka Nu tightened unconsciously.
It's this kid, it's him...
"Oh, Maori, you are really good at raising children!" Muranaka Tsutomu, who was being controlled by her, didn't understand what was going on and thought that his fiancée was reminding him to respond positively to avoid a dull atmosphere. He immediately praised her without any embarrassment, "Even the children who come to your home to stay can be brought up to have such a talent for criminal investigation. Such a keen sense of smell, he is a good seedling."
Christina closed her eyes and took a deep breath to hold on.
…If it weren’t for Nu’s excellent connections in the village, she would have strangled this idiot to death eight times in the past three years.
