Conan: I Am Not a Snake Spirit

More than ten minutes later, Takatori Isao was still asking the clerk about the situation of women's clothing. Even though he was wearing sunglasses, his bearded face still showed clear stupidity and confusion.

"Why do you need to wear a completely transparent gauze dress outside?"

"This is a very popular way of dressing recently," the female shop assistant smiled patiently, "Although it doesn't matter if they don't match, I still recommend that you buy them together. Girls like this style of clothing very much these days. !”

"Do girls like to dress up like this?" Takatori Yannan felt puzzled.

Wearing it like this will be a bit cumbersome and seems to be of no use...

However, the time is almost up, don’t worry about whether you can understand it or not, just buy, buy, buy.

"Okay, this is the match, get me a set..."

"Dingle bell! Dingle bell!..."

When the phone rang, Takatori Yano took it out, took a look at it, said sorry to the clerk, walked to the side and picked up the phone.

On the other end of the phone, Belmod's voice was smiling, "Sorry, Slivova, I was busy sending emails to others just now, and I just saw your email. I'm very happy that you can consider me, but you can Don't use shoddy things to deal with me..."

"Of course I won't." Takatori Yannan affirmed.

"Thank you then. I don't know how far along you are?" Belmod asked, "Have you started selecting in the store?"

"Yeah," Takatori Isao was not very far away from the store clerk. Seeing that the clerk seemed to be paying attention to him, he deliberately asked in a normal voice, "I want to buy you a gift. I don't know what size clothes you wear..."

On the other end of the phone, Belmod quickly changed into a sweet but somewhat grumpy voice, and said loudly, "Are you a fool to buy clothes as gifts but don't know their sizes?!"

The female clerk vaguely heard the roar coming from the phone and sweated.

This customer's girlfriend seems to be very difficult to deal with.

But she can actually understand it, because this customer doesn't seem to understand girls very well, and buying things is really... too... stupid...

"Stupid, stupid?" Takatori Yannan was speechless.

Belmode came into the role really quickly, but could he choose a slightly gentler girlfriend?

"Isn't it?" Belmode complained in a sweet voice, "Even if you don't know the size of my clothes, you can probably judge whether the clothes fit you, right? If you ask me directly, there will be no surprise at all!"

The female clerk nodded.

Yes, yes, this behavior is really stupid.

Takatori Yannan: "..."

At this moment, he was speechless and unable to refute, and he began to feel that falling in love was indeed a very troublesome thing.

"Also, what you bought aren't some strange clothes, are they?" The sweet voice on the other end of the phone said confidently, "If it wasn't a style I like and am familiar with, I wouldn't want it. -Forgive-you!”

Takatori Yannan thought about the dress and gauze, and then thought about Bermod's usual style, and knew that he had made the wrong choice. He broke out in a cold sweat and had to force a smile on his face, "Don't worry, you must like it. style of……"

"Really?" The sweet voice softened her tone and seemed a little squeamish, "Since it is a gift, you must choose it carefully. I still have work, so you can pass the time by yourself. I'll see you in the evening."

Takatori Yannan: "I know, I know..."

Although it was fake, it was really like riding a roller coaster. As soon as the tone softened, he felt much more relaxed.

The female clerk waited for Takatori Isao to put down her cell phone and asked with a smile, "Well, customer, let me help you get what you just had..."

"Wait a minute!" When Takatori Yannan thought of the sweet voice on the other end of the phone, he felt that he was about to have a stress reaction, and shouted with a ferocious expression, "She doesn't like this style, this style will never work! "

He thought that after contacting Belmode, Belmode would teach him what to buy and how to buy it. Unexpectedly, the problem became more complicated. He had to guess the style and suitable size that Belmode liked.

As expected of Belmode, he suddenly felt that he would not be able to get out of this store for another twenty minutes.

As expected of an organized operation, it certainly wouldn't be easy for him to do it.

…

On the other side, Chi Feichi had disguised himself as a puzzle enthusiast and boarded the cruise ship.

The person who was impersonated by Chi Feichi is named Xingu Jin. He is 27 years old, about 1.7 meters tall, and has a fat body. He looks like a straightforward otaku.

Shinya Shintani attended Toto University and was considered his senior. He established a code research interest club during his school days. Due to poor development of the club, it was canceled before graduation. However Shintani Shintani didn't care. After graduation, he With two classmates he met in the club, he established a 'Code Deciphering Agency'.

Before Kogoro Mouri became famous, there was Kudo Shinichi in Tokyo. Before Kudo Shinichi became famous, there was also Kudo Yusaku. However, Shintani and his three others were less talented than Kudo and his son, and the three of them combined may not have the same talent. Kudo Shinichi is strong, so the firm has been running tepidly.

Xingu Jin also doesn't care whether the firm has a client or not.

Xingu Jin's father can make money, and has accumulated enough wealth for him to eat and drink for a lifetime. He also has two apartment buildings that will continue to generate income when rented out. In this case, Xingu Jin is completely subsidizing the firm with his own money. When no one was entrusted with solving puzzles, the two employees took them to eat, drink, and study various secret codes every day. They did not fight or compete, which was very Buddhist.

However, that doesn’t mean that Shin Gu’s puzzle-solving skills are poor.

Shinya Shintani's talent for solving puzzles is not as good as that of Kudo and his son, but he is still better than ordinary people. He belongs to the type of people who are at the top in a certain field, but cannot truly become a dazzling star. They probably realize that with their talents , No matter how hard you try, you can't become that dazzling star. Only then will Shingu give up worrying about fame and just live the life you want.

Moreover, Shintani generates electricity through love. After several years of accumulation, it is not nothing. Kudo and his son will not be active in various password enthusiast forums, but Shintani Shinkai is still a veteran figure in many password hobby forums. He is not only familiar with various password enthusiasts forums, It is a common encryption and decryption method. It has a solid foundation and has also solved many passwords encrypted by various methods. It has rich experience and a certain reputation. It is a person who relies on its reputation to avoid testing and join the deciphering team.

There are currently five people joining the cruise ship deciphering team.

One is a programmer sent by the organization, who joined after passing the assessment at the registration office; the other is the chief programmer who works for a multinational company. The parent company of that company is in the United States. It is probably sent to show favor to Nicola. He became his chief programmer; the two detectives were both well-known in Japan and happened to be in Tokyo. These two detectives did not take the test and both passed by relying on their reputation; and Shinya Shinya was also approved because of his reputation. join in.

Famous detectives like Mouri Kogoro and Hattori Heiji have not yet participated.

He had a lot of information about the detectives.

His teacher just came back from surfing and it was already afternoon when he learned the news, so he decided to take a night off and come back tomorrow.

Kudo Shinichi has disappeared for a long time and became a child living in the Mori family. If Kudo Shinichi had contact with Akai Shuichi and knew that Akai Shuichi would come tonight, he would probably choose to return as 'Conan' tomorrow. It is also a safer choice to follow Mouri Kogoro, Akai Shuichi to stay tonight, and Kudo Shinichi to change shifts tomorrow morning.

Detective Hakuba had eucalyptus in his hand. He left Tokyo some time ago and went to investigate the Nagano area. Even if he got the news, he would have to come back tomorrow.

Motegi Haruka is still in Japan, and Hattori Heiji is also a famous high school detective in Japan, but those two people are not in Tokyo and need time to arrange travel. If they don't arrive at the registration office at three o'clock this afternoon, they probably won't come today.

Yueshui's reputation is not as good as others, but his ability is decent, but with his teacher there, Yueshui should be inclined to choose to follow their master and apprentice, and everyone can be a companion.

Sera Masumi didn't know that Charles' disappearance was related to the organization. Currently, his attention was focused on Conan and the man suspected of Akai Shuichi, and he didn't pay enough attention to other things. If he hadn't come over immediately, he wouldn't have come today.

There are many mysteries surrounding Charles's disappearance. Nicola's reward for deciphering this time can easily arouse the interest of detectives. This is why he feels that he cannot delay it. Once he delays it past today, whether it is for bonuses, fame or to clarify the mystery, no matter Several detectives would be interested in getting involved, but today is the first day, and there are many people who don't have time to gather on the cruise ship, so they won't encounter much resistance when doing things on the cruise ship.

In this situation where no famous detective has arrived, Shinya Shin is an important member of the deciphering team.

The two programmers are better at computer technology and will work with the programmers brought by Nicola to study technical solutions to the problem. This is a method that Nicola and even the FBI have tried a long time ago. Even the FBI's computer experts have difficulty forcibly opening the hard drive. Others don't have much hope, but Nicola doesn't want to let go of any possibility, so she continues to recruit programmers.

The two detectives are somewhat famous, but their personal skills are not very strong. They have some achievements in follow-up investigation and reasoning, but they are not exposed to many secret codes, do not have much basic knowledge, and their experience is not rich enough.

The knowledge and accumulated experience that Xingu Jin has mastered are very important in this five-person team. No matter what other people think of solving the puzzle, there may be some details that need to be consulted and confirmed by Xingu Jin. If someone provides a new idea, Nicola will also choose to ask Shingu Shin what he thinks.

Having a voice in the team will make it easier to move around on the cruise ship. This is one of the reasons why they chose Xingu Jin.

Another reason is that Shintani is about 1.7 meters tall and has a muscular body. It is relatively easy for him to disguise himself. He only needs to bend his waist or bend his legs a little and add some padding to complete the disguise.

The others were either under-tall and thin, or shorter women, so it was easy for him to reveal flaws when impersonating them.

It was not difficult to replace Xingu Jin. Members of the deciphering team were free to go on and off the boat at any time. They arranged for someone to pretend to be the street management office in the area where Xingu Jin's office was located, and falsely claimed that there was a problem with this year's management expense bill and that some people were needed. I went to check the details of the management fees handed over this year and sign them. I hope Xingu Jin can take the time to go to the management office this afternoon or tomorrow.

The time extension until tomorrow is to prevent Xingu Jin from getting suspicious. Although Xingu Jin usually does not make others anxious, he never makes others anxious. Of course, it may be because he usually does not have much main business and has time to solve other problems. That's why Xingu Jin developed a good habit of "signing as soon as possible and attending street meetings on time". Xingu Jin will go to the subdistrict office when he receives a call and will not wait until tomorrow. This is also in their calculations.

When Shin Gu arrived at the subdistrict office, they replaced the peripheral members of the subdistrict office's on-duty staff and used stun guns to knock Shin Gu down. When Shin Gu appeared on the street again, he had become the disguised impostor he was. .

We did not take action on the streets or alleys because we were worried that the FBI agents would send people to follow the team members who left the cruise ship in order to prevent members of the deciphering team from being replaced. Facts also proved that it was right to be careful. The FBI did arrange for people to follow Xingu Jin. Behind the scenes, it was just that they started in the reception room of the subdistrict office, and the FBI agents could not follow up inside, so they could not confirm the situation of their replacement of Xingu Jin.
