Chapter 244 Conan’s speculation, killer? mafia?

"Hiroki lived up to Chairman Sindora's expectations. With its own talent and hard work, it successfully developed the 'DNA tracking program' that traces human ancestors through skin and blood data. Later, it developed the era-changing artificial intelligence 'Nono' Ark'."

"However, Hiroki never expected that the 'DNA tracking system' he invented would become a turning point in his life."

Kudo Yusaku looked at Sindora and said:

"If what I said is correct, Hiroki found out a secret about someone you thought was unreliable through the DNA tracking system. And in order to prevent this secret from being leaked to the outside world, you forced Hiroki to commit suicide, right?"

Sindora lowered her eyes and said in a deep voice:

"That's it, you're absolutely right."

Mumu Shisan frowned deeply when he heard this and asked:

"What is that so-called secret that makes you want to keep it secret even if you want to force a child to commit suicide?!"

Sindora stopped talking and said hesitantly:

"This secret."

Walking on the way to the opera house, the atmosphere became slightly quieter again. At this time, Conan couldn't help but secretly look at Jack beside him.

Without him, the scene in the poker club just now was really impressive.

It's not that he hasn't seen girls with good skills, such as Mao Lilan and Fujimaru Ritsuka.

However, although he has never learned fighting, he also understands that the skills used by Jack are by no means fighting skills like the two girls above, but killing skills.

Every move hits the opponent's vital points, just like a professional killer.

But

Looking at Jack's young face and petite body, even if he had witnessed the scene just now, it was difficult for him to associate the word 'killer' with him.

Unless, the other party is not a real child.

Considering Haibara Ai's ambiguous attitude towards Jack and his group, he couldn't help but wonder whether Jack was also a professional killer who had eaten APTX4869 and thus shrunk in size.

But looking at Jack's appearance, he doubted his own judgment, because so far, Jack had behaved like an innocent child consistent with his age, even in battle.

As someone who also became a child after eating APTX4869, he knew how difficult it was to pretend to be a child with the body and mind of an adult. Not only him, but even Haibara Ai, who lived in the black organization, would inevitably reveal his secrets occasionally.

If the other party is really like them, it can only mean that the other party's city and acting skills are terrible.

But, if that's the case, why would the other party take the initiative to expose her killing skills in front of them?

This doesn't make any sense whatsoever.

So he had another guess——

That is, the other party is indeed a child, but at the same time he is indeed a killer, or at least has received training as a killer.

Because he was trained as a killer, he could master such skills; and because he was still an immature child, he was accidentally exposed in front of them.

This is the most reasonable explanation he has at the moment.

Starting from this point, there is also a new interpretation of the identity of Fujimaru Ritsuka——

A family that would train children as killers would obviously not be a well-known family, so the family affairs that Fujimaru Ritsuka mentioned would naturally not be ordinary family affairs.

That's why he couldn't explain it to the outside world, and that's why Huiyuan Ai kept silent about it.

This even explains why Fujimaru Ritsuka and Mash next to her have such good skills, and it is natural for Fujimaru Ritsuka to learn about firearms at home.

Then, considering that most of Fujimaru Ritsuka’s companions are foreigners, such as James Butler, Matthew Kyrielight, including nursery rhymes and Jack around him, and Fujimaru Ritsuka and Hatae, judging from their hair and eye color Also more like mixed race.

Only Yui looks like a real Asian.

Therefore, he guessed that the family of Fujimaru Ritsuka and the others might be abroad.

A family of killers? Or a mafia family?

Both are possible.

In any case, what is certain is that Fujimaru Ritsuka is definitely not as harmless as he seems, and there is a high probability that there is a quite terrifying and shady family behind him.

After guessing this, he had to think of another question——

That is Fujimaru Ritsuka, or the family behind Fujimaru Ritsuka. Could it be related to the black organization?

He didn't know this, because Haibara Ai's attitude towards Fujimaru Ritsuka was also a big doubt. Judging from past performance, Haibara Ai should already know the true identity of Fujimaru Ritsuka.

But in this case, she was still willing to get close to the other person and keep the other person's secret, and she didn't even mind that Fujimaru Ritsuka interacted with Dr. Agasa and Uncle Mouri.

This was something he couldn't figure out anyway.

He dare not say that he understands Hui Yuan Ai 100%, but after getting along with her for this period of time, he understands that Hui Yuan Ai is by no means such a ignorant person.

If Fujimaru Ritsuka is really a dangerous person, she will never be able to drag Dr. Agas and other unrelated people into the water.

But if Fujimaru Ritsuka is not a dangerous person, what does Jack's performance mean?

Something is completely wrong.

Conan frowned deeply. The existing important clues were completely contradictory and it was impossible to make a reasonable inference. This feeling was very bad for the detective.

He always felt that he had not yet touched the true core of Fujimaru Ritsuka's identity, and was missing a lot of key information.

Let's investigate when we get down.

No matter what, based on the current situation, he could not regard Fujimaru Ritsuka as a trustworthy companion for the time being.

"arrive!"

Suddenly, Mao Lilan's cry brought him back to reality. They had arrived at the door of the opera house.

"call--"

Conan took a deep breath, put aside the distracting thoughts in his mind, and turned his attention back to the present.

If you can't beat the game, everything is meaningless.

Before entering the opera house, Conan bought a bouquet of flowers at a nearby flower shop, and then led everyone into the opera house, touching the backstage work area until he was stopped by a middle-aged man in a suit.

The other party warned seriously:

"Who are you? Except for relevant personnel, no one is allowed to enter here!"

Mao Lilan smiled and said:

"We are friends of Ms. Irene Adler and wanted to encourage her before the show officially begins."

At this time, Conan raised the flowers in his hands in cooperation, showed an innocent smile and said:

"We also brought flowers!"

After the other party looked at them for a moment, his expression became kind, and he showed a sudden smile and said:

"You are her friends!"

"Then go in quickly. The show will start soon. Ms. Irene's lounge is in the room with the posters at the end. It's easy to find."

Conan smiled and said:

"Thank you, uncle!"

So everyone passed each other smoothly and approached the room where Irene Adler was.

He already had a general understanding of the situation. As Yui and Hideki Morohoshi said before, this is a game for children, and logical thinking cannot be too complicated, unless Noah's Ark deliberately does not want people to clear the game.

Therefore, he had always used an adult's thinking to conduct careful reasoning, but he was mistaken for his cleverness.

For example, in a poker club, if you enter directly from the main entrance, the battle may not be triggered.

Of course, in this case, he would not discover the problem between Jack and Fujimaru Ritsuka.

There are pros and cons.

　No, I've been at my limit these past few days. I don't think it's good.

　　Ugh
