Being in Detective Conan, being officially part of the organization is just too awesome!

Lin Jiayou's villa

In the basement

After a series of continuous operations, the screen in the basement lit up with a familiar light.

A synthesized electronic voice rang out in the room.

"My child, is there anything you need to report?"

Although the synthesized voice remained stable, Lin Jiayou keenly sensed a difference from the last time.

Well, that gentleman must have rested well this time; he's not so tired.

It seems Gin hasn't been reporting to him lately...

"Yes, sir."

Lin Jiayou spoke calmly.

The synthesized voice responded with an "oh."

“My child, tell me.”

"Sir, have you ever heard of the Sindora Group?"

Just to be on the safe side, Lin Jiayou asked first.

After all, the organization is a large and powerful entity, and that gentleman couldn't possibly know everything.

Sure enough, the gentleman pondered for a moment, then asked in return,

"The Sindora Corporation... is that the Sindora from America?"

"Yes, sir."

Lin Jiayou nodded slightly.

Having received confirmation from Lin Jiayou, the voice coming from the synthesized electronic voice seemed somewhat confused.

"The Sindora Corporation... my child, is there anything special about this corporation?"

"From what I understand, the Sindora Group doesn't seem to be a very large corporation."

"The computer industry it operates in cannot be considered the leader in the United States."

The man's words startled Lin Jiayou slightly.

He hadn't expected that the man, as the organization's top leader, would have had time to learn about the Sindora Corporation.

However, Lin Jiayou himself was not clear about the actual situation of the Sindora Group.

Since that gentleman said it wasn't very good, then it wasn't very good either...

"gentlemen,"

Lin Jiayou spoke expressionlessly.

"Did you know that the Sindora Group has a virtual reality game project called 'Cocoon'?"

"Well......."

After a moment's hesitation, the synthesized voice on the other end gave an affirmative answer.

“Sila did report this project to me a few years ago.”

"The 'Cocoon' project claims to create entirely new gameplay and redefine video games."

Lin Jiayou took over the man's words and spoke calmly.

"hehe......"

Perhaps Lin Jiayou's words were too exaggerated, because the gentleman burst out laughing.

“My child, when Silas reported to me back then, he did mention the Sindora Group.”

"However, this project has been going on for seven years now."

"The Sindora Group made a fortune through this IPO, but the project's progress is not something that outsiders can easily see..."

Lin Chia-yu did not answer.

After listening to the man's words, he finally understood some of the issues.

According to that gentleman, the Sindora Group has been working on the 'Cocoon' game project for seven years, relying on it to attract various sponsorships, but there has been no response for a long time.

It is clear from this that this project is obviously fake and is a scheme by the Syndora Group to swindle money.

They propose a sensational project, attract various investors, and then capture the attention of the public to rapidly increase the market value.

Logically speaking, this is indeed a common tactic used by many large companies.

Like NetEase's "Water Cold," which claimed to redefine MMOs, while the results were decent, they fell far short of its hype...

The Sindora Group's project, 'Cocoon,' is even more ambitious, claiming to redefine video games.

I bet that gentleman will burst out laughing when he sees this; he can't believe so many people would believe such a ridiculous gimmick...

Of course, that was the gentleman's idea.

Lin Jiayou finally understood why the organization hadn't intervened at all in such an outrageous project by the Syndora Group, which was highly aligned with the organization's goals.

It seems that nobody took it seriously from the very beginning...

"gentlemen,"

Lin Jiayou narrowed his eyes and slowly spoke.

"There may be a slight discrepancy between your understanding and reality."

"As far as I know, the 'Cocoon' project has made great progress, and the ideas proposed by the Sindora Group can now be applied in practice."

"I reckon by now, Chairman Sindora has already started planning a game demo event and press conference soon..."

The synthesized voice on the other end fell silent.

Lin Jiayou's news brought that gentleman a lot of information.

That gentleman naturally knew what it would mean if the 'Cocoon' game were to succeed.

The virtual and the real will truly merge...

“My child,”

The synthesized sound seemed to suddenly become heavy.

"sure?"

"determine."

Lin Jiayou's voice remained calm, yet it was very powerful.

The man fell silent again.

Although he had already found another path.

However, there are never too many ways to reach the other side...

He didn't ask Lin Jiayou how she knew; he didn't need to pry too much into Lin Jiayou's situation.

At least, Cherry had always been under his control and was the child he trusted most.

"My child, what do you want to do?"

The gentleman then posed the question to Lin Jiayou.

"You came to see me today, so you must already have a plan."

"Um,"

Lin Jiayou nodded slightly.

"I hope the organization can cooperate with the Sindora Group to obtain some solutions regarding 'cocoons'."

"If that doesn't work, at least we should try to get someone."

"Who?"

The synthesized voice sounded immediately after hearing Lin Jiayou's words.

"Kimmura Chubin."

Lin Jiayou spoke in a deep voice.

"The person in charge of the 'Cocoon' project's research and development is the one who knows the project best."

"it is good."

The synthesized voice replied with a single word.

Lin Jiayou knew that the gentleman had already made up his mind.

In fact, in Lin Jiayou's view, the most important person in the 'Cocoon' project should be the genius boy Hiroki Sawada.

His 'Noah's Ark' possesses infinitely evolving artificial intelligence.

Lin Chia-yu even doubted whether the "Cocoon" project could continue without the "Noah's Ark".

However, now that 'Cocoon' is about to be released, it is highly likely that Hiroki Sawada has already died, and it has been about two years since then.

Years ago, he didn't know this was Conan's world, let alone that Hiroki Sawada was there, and he couldn't save him even if he wanted to.

Now, although Hiroki Sawada is dead, his biological father, Tadahiro Kenmura, is still alive. If we can control this guy, we might be able to win over the 'Noah's Ark' that carries Hiroki Sawada's consciousness.

"I'll figure something out regarding Kenmura Tadahira,"

The gentleman made a decision immediately, and a synthesized electronic voice slowly began to play.

“My child, if necessary, you still need to go to the United States.”

"Ok."

Lin Jiayou nodded, but he wasn't entirely at ease leaving it to the rest of the organization.

Especially since he didn't know how many undercover agents were in the organization's branch in the United States, he was even more reluctant to hand it over to others.

"but,"

The synthesized voice came out again, this time with a hint of irony.

“My child may not need to go through the organization’s channels to contact the Sindora Group.”

"I remember, the largest investor in Syndora was probably..."

"Suzuki Foundation".

"Ok?"

Lin Jiayou was slightly taken aback, and then instantly remembered a detail he had almost forgotten.

In the original story, The Phantom of Baker Street, among those who participated in the experience, Sonoko Suzuki was originally the only one who wasn't a child...

So, if you put it that way...
