Stay away from Conan

Chapter 1654 A matter of time? means of hiding text

Speaking of which, Gao Yuan actually noticed one thing very early after he came to this world, that is, although in many cases, the plots of the original works he encountered did not seem to deviate from the original works, occasionally there were some differences in certain details. , but there is a difference, and this difference is due to the difference in technological level——

You know, the original story started being serialized in my own world in the last century, and it was still being serialized until I came to this world.

What results from such a long span is that in the story, with the progress of real time, the level of science and technology in the story is also developing. This leads to the fact that the original story only has a story timeline of less than a year, but the level of science and technology in the story is different. There have been earth-shaking changes.

In this way, this kind of plot arrangement makes some of the early plots in the original work look very problematic now due to the changes in technological level, or some of the latest plots may also have obvious problems.

For example, in the "Ace" trial, I saw the story about Rum seventeen years ago. People from seventeen years ago actually used smartphones? It’s just a fool’s errand…

Of course, I don’t need to think about it for the time being. The plot that I am facing now, which has problems due to time, includes the Itakura Taku incident in the original work——

If your impression is correct, the plot of the original Itakura Taku was released at the beginning of the new century, so the corresponding plot of the original work fits that era. When most people started to use personal computers, many computer operations were for laymen It's something completely new, so some methods are completely unknown to laypeople who don't understand computers.

In this way, in the original work, Itakura Taku used a computer document to record a diary, and in order to prevent important information from being peeked, he chose to hide the content of the diary. The method was to change the font color of the content to be hidden to match that of the document The background color is the same, so if you open the document normally and browse it, you will naturally not be able to see the content.

However, this approach seems reasonable, but in fact there is a big problem, that is, the text spacing——

After all, hiding the text in this way, but the text is still there, results in some inexplicable empty paragraphs in the entire document, which is easy to notice, just like the original Conan.

However, this is the plot of the original work after all, but now, the reality of the situation I am in is——

The technological level of this era, excluding the special case of "Noah's Ark", is probably about ten years behind my original world. Personal computers have basically become popular. Therefore, in this era, Taku Itakura's technique in the original work It just looks ridiculous.

As a well-known "CG producer" and a game system designer, would a person with sufficient computer technology reserves be stupid enough to use this method to hide document information?

Apart from anything else, if someone opens this document and uses the "Select All" function, the information that changes the font color and is visually hidden will still be selected, so that all the information can still be seen.

But obviously, the current reality is that Taku Itakura did not use this method, otherwise Conan would have seen the problem long ago.

However, after I reorganized Itakura Taku's diary documents through artificial intelligence software, the content displayed was about the horrific things Itakura Taku encountered after seeing "Tequila" and his relationship with a mysterious woman. The process of reaching an agreement means that there must be this information in the document, but Conan couldn't find it, so it can only be hidden——

That is how the matter?

Therefore, thinking of the lofty ambitions of this, I proactively opened the source document of the diary for the first time, and began to look through the contents of the diary, looking for the locations where there should be hidden information——

Sure enough, if you read the whole article normally, there is no content about Itakura Taku's subsequent contact with the mysterious woman in the organization, so there must be hidden content.

??????????.??????

However, because the layout is very neat, the diaries of different dates, and the number of lines between each entry are the same, there is no abnormality at all. Therefore, without knowing that there is hidden content in the document, it is basically impossible for outsiders to just look at these contents. It is impossible to know that there is hidden content in it.

So……

"Does it have its own hidden text function?"

Thinking of this, Gao Yuan couldn't help but chuckle——

Because the document program itself has the function of perfectly hiding content!

And after careful observation, Gao Yuan also discovered that Itakura Taku had also set a "restricted editing" on the document. To remove this, a password is required...

So, thinking of the loftiness of this, I simply came up with a simple and violent method——

Save document as text format...

No matter how much Takashi Itakura does to the document, as long as it is converted into the most basic text format, all the contents inside will be displayed in the text format...

And this is also the reason why when the artificial intelligence program I use to interpret the document can directly interpret the entire content.

This is a problem with the document program itself. Unless you directly protect the document itself with password encryption instead of using the "restrict editing" function, it will be very easy to find out the content of the document.

But once Itakura Taku uses a password to encrypt, the secrets in the document will become exposed. At that time, it will be easy for people who really want to explore the secrets of the document to crack the password.

Therefore, from Itakura Taku's point of view, it is the right approach to hide the content instead of encrypting it.

Just like now, Conan and his friends have not discovered the hidden contents in this document.

In this case, Gao Yuan now knows that Itakura Taku has indeed used a more sophisticated method than the original to hide the information, but at the same time, it also hinders Conan's process of finding clues...

There is still a deviation...

If Conan has not discovered the hidden information, the subsequent plot cannot proceed normally.

If Conan comes to me for help, I can try to guide the development of things, but what if he doesn't come to me?

It's impossible for me to go to Dr. Agasa's house next door in the middle of the night and force help, right?

So...

What should I do? If Conan hadn't discovered the information and couldn't follow the original plot, then what I wanted to verify would be ruined!

Or, force the plot to go on the right track...

If I and Conan participated at the same time, it might backfire and make the plot completely out of control. What if?

Or...

If Conan couldn't do it, I...

I turned into a child, made up as Conan, and performed the next original plot, so that the plot seemed to go in the direction of the original, and finally I could verify that thing?

However, the risk of doing so was very high. After all, I was not Conan himself, and if this matter was really as I guessed, it would be safe if Conan himself participated in it.

Therefore, it was better to wait for Conan to discover the hidden information himself and let the situation develop normally, otherwise I could only consider giving up this verification opportunity...

However, after a while, from what Gao Yuan overheard about Conan, Conan did find the information hidden by Itakura Taku...
