"How is this possible? Why is all this happening?!"
Even his catchphrase has been lost, which shows Conan's mood. And when he said "impossible", it is difficult to determine whether he meant that Conan still did not believe that Kogoro Mouri was the murderer of the case, or that he could also hurt himself.
But the result was very obvious. Kogoro Mori had only his own strength. The dark tentacles had completely attacked him and he was no longer able to resist.
But at this moment, something strange happened:
"Comrade Maori Kogoro, rest in peace. I swear to you, no matter what the cost, the organization will definitely defeat Conan!!!"
Accompanied by a cold and heavy whisper, a bullet shot out from the darkness and fell towards Mouri Kogoro.
The murderer, Kogoro Mouri, also died in front of Conan. The cause of death was "silenced by the organization". He was shot in the head, and died quickly and cleanly.
"How could this happen? No, it shouldn't be like this!"
Conan found it incredible, as if he had never expected it and seemed unable to accept it.
Faintly, the darkness on Conan seemed to dissipate a little.
In the abstract dark human silhouette, a pair of eyes emerged faintly.
And those eyes were filled with disbelief and inability to accept.
However, the truth behind Kogoro Mori's "death" is so logically perfect and the process is so accurate. As the murderer, his death has indeed put an end to the cases in the two theatrical versions. It seems that there is no room for redemption.
On the scene, Ran Mao Li watched all this. She was always at the scene, but always stayed outside the case of the theater.
Her eyes fell on the fallen body of her father, Kogoro Mori, or more precisely, on the gesture he made in the last moment before his death.
The slightly raised thumb represents Kogoro Mori's last words.
"Xiaolan, you may have to walk the rest of the way alone..."
That day, Kogoro Mori, who had not returned home all night and only returned early in the morning, said these words to Ran Mori as his last words. While speaking, Kogoro Mori gave a thumbs up!
Mao Lilan just stared for a long time, and after that, a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.
This smile is gentler than before.
And crazier than before.
In the fast-forward timeline, Mo Yu watched the entire process of the third special event in the first week.
In this particular incident, Kogoro Mori fell into madness and committed a huge crime, completely killing Eri Kisaki and himself, but at the same time, he left an indelible and precious legacy for all mankind.
The nearly omnipotent evil god is not truly omnipotent. The rules of the game that he follows seem to be his weakness.
The one who took over the unfinished work of Kogoro Mori was the lazy girl Haibara Ai, who reconnected with the organization because of the movie case and was motivated by Kogoro Mori's sacrifice.
After regaining the code name Shirley, she regained some of her former wisdom and tried her best to analyze the incident, dissect the causes and logic, and try her best to find out Conan's rules of the game. At the same time, she formulated a further theatrical crime plan.
Because the organization cannot stay in Beika Town for long and can only enter occasionally to provide support, Haibara Ai, who is unable to leave Beika Town, opens a permanent branch of the organization in Beika Town with the Mori Office as the center in order to verify her own guesses and research. Then, together with Mori Ran, she forms the Ailan Crime Group, using Beika Town as a test bed, and constantly searches for hope across endless cases.
Although this is only the third incident, the path to the ending is becoming increasingly clear.
Mo Yu therefore knew how the original characters were liberated in the first act.
It is not necessary to be killed by Conan, but to be "acknowledged" as dead by Conan.
152. Conan's siege war where all mankind fights until the last man
However, it is not easy to obtain such "recognition".
In the world of Detective Conan, the so-called case itself has a special meaning. The so-called murderer is not just anyone, and crime is not a casual thing.
This is a stage that is always running, and the stage plays performed on the stage, no matter how absurd the plots are, always contain some logic.
A wolf leaped onto the stage, looking ferocious with its fangs and claws bared. Then, a hunter came onto the stage with a gun.
Even without much description, the story comes to life with just the appearance of two characters with their original personalities.
In the stage plot of the wolf and the hunter, no matter who hunts whom, it is all natural, and even some extra incredible developments are not impossible. But suddenly, the hunter just throws away his gun, shamelessly talks to himself, and insists that he is the wolf. This is not acceptable. The hidden logic of the stage does not allow it.
Dr. Agasa's behavior of killing and destroying at will when he disagrees with something, thinking that this would make him a murderer, is undoubtedly a negative example.
In this regard, Kogoro Mori was undoubtedly successful.
By joining the winery organization, Kogoro Mori successfully jumped out of the red team's protagonist lineup, broke the shackles on his body, and successfully entered the black team that was opposite to Conan.
And then, a logically self-consistent "criminal motive", a carefully planned "criminal method", a long-planned "criminal opportunity", a huge "theatrical case", and an ironclad "story ending" made the death of himself and his wife a "truth" that could not be overturned by any reasoning!
Of course, the key is not just these. Factors such as Gin's personal involvement and the superposition of potential energy of a series of cases during the movie are all extremely critical.
However, when Mo Yu saw this scene, his omniscient authority was slightly touched and he gave some feedback.
In the eyes of the omniscient authority, these attempts by Kogoro Mori were more of a metaphysical or theological ritual than a premeditated crime.
The theatrical crime plan he formulated, "The Fourteenth Target", is a huge ritual. All the characters in the case are sacrifices and offerings to promote this ritual. All the crimes and cases that appear in the ritual are the energy that drives the ritual to operate.
The motive, method and timing of the crime are all symbolic factors in the operation of this ritual, and Gin's final "murder to silence the witness" is the final step of this ritual, which ultimately condenses the final "result" of the ritual!
That is the fruit of the ritual called "truth", in exchange for Conan, or rather, the world "recognized" at that moment the "ending" that Kogoro Mori wrote for himself and his wife through the criminal ritual.
There is no doubt that Kogoro Mori has done what he can.
Although he did not succeed completely and did not defeat Conan head-on through the theatrical version of Crime Ritual, he still achieved partial success.
He and his wife Eri Kisaki temporarily withdrew from the stage of eternity.
And it paved the way for those who came after.
If the character dancing on this eternal stage does not have a predetermined ending, then use your own hands to write an ending for your own story, and then force Conan and the stage to acknowledge it.
This ending is not only the end of their own liberation, but also the backlash of these supporting characters at the last moment, when they gamble everything on this crazy eternal stage and the lord of eternity, Conan.
In the following time, Haibara Ai, who had cheered up a little, served as the intellectual leader, and paired with Mouri Ran, who was becoming more and more crazy but whose motivation was constantly increasing. They soon figured out a lot of things through the case of Mouri Kogoro, and these things even touched on the deeper truth of fate.
"Sister Lan, you and I, as well as Dr. Agasa and others, are different from most people in this world. If this world is a stage play featuring detectives and criminals, and Conan is the protagonist, then we should be the so-called protagonists. Fate is particularly harsh to us, and if we want to tear apart the shackles of fate, we need to work harder than anyone else in this world..."
By constantly analyzing and studying the cases and experiences left by Kogoro Mori, and then conducting experiments and verifications over the years, Haibara Ai even figured out how much "plot status" these members of the protagonist group possessed, and what necessary factors were needed to tear apart the shackles of fate to a certain extent and break through their own plot status. Gradually, these factors were thoroughly studied and turned into easy-to-understand data.
However, the more she researched, the more she felt the cruelty of fate:
"Sister Lan, take you as an example. Your plot status is probably at the level of a plot heroine. If you want to be free, not to mention other factors, you need at least hundreds or even more cases with a crime index of 4 or above to make up a sufficient amount of weight. I... I think I may have miscalculated, or there should be some necessary factors that I haven't studied clearly and haven't embedded in the formula."
The crime index is Ai Haibara's quantitative data on the case. It is based on ordinary murders encountered in daily life and is set at 4. The more complicated the case, the more victims, and the larger the case scale, the higher the crime index. The scale of level is vaguely close to the level of cases where Gin finds an opportunity and personally takes action to snipe Conan.
Mao Lilan lowered her eyes slightly. She didn't know when, but her eyes had been stained with an indelible blood color!
That touch of blood was sad and weird.
Mao Lilan asked with a gentle smile:
"What about you, Xiao Ai..."
Haibara Ai remained silent, because according to the formula she had researched, she and Mouri Ran were actually the same.
Haibara Ai has always thought that she is just an ordinary biological researcher, well, a little bit unusual because of her rejuvenation. Unexpectedly, in the eyes of fate, she is one of the heroines. If she were in another world, Haibara Ai might feel a little honored, but in this world, Haibara Ai only feels unspeakable cruelty.
For her and Ran Mao Li, the difficulty of breaking free from the shackles of fate and leaving this eternal stage is higher than for others, and not just a little bit higher!
Ran Mouri didn't ask any more questions because she had already sensed the answer from Haibara Ai's somewhat gloomy expression and eyes.
"So, Ai-chan, if we want to kill him, what scale of theater would we need?"
It has been confirmed that the theatrical-level crime ritual, following the rules of the game between good and evil on stage, can cause harm and impact to Conan, so Ran Mouri asked this question.
Huiyuan Ai had certainly done some research on this, but the data from the research was hard to describe as optimistic. As a scientific researcher, rigor was in her bones, so she was reluctant to speak nonsense, and only whispered:
"It's a bit difficult. Maybe it's a little harder than we want to be free. Okay, maybe a little more than a little..."
The difficulty of killing Conan is much greater than the difficulty of the two heroines wanting to exit, and Mao Lilan already knows what the difficulty is.
But she said nothing, just smiled as always.
Hope is the most beautiful thing in the world. Especially in this increasingly desperate world, the hope created by Kogoro Mori at the risk of his life is so brilliant and tempting.
Especially the countries around the world behind the winery were excited about it.
As long as it is possible, people can do it!
Human beings believe so firmly!
Then countries around the world took action one after another, and various plans were constantly put forward. The elite of the elite were selected from various levels and joined the winery to become one of the forces launching the offensive.
For a moment, the morale of mankind suddenly increased dramatically, and even Gin, a cold and stern man, felt that with the unity of mankind, the dawn of the great cause of killing gods was just around the corner.
Then Gin and the countries behind him, through various channels, cooperated with the people in Beika Town, and put these plans into practice one by one, launched an attack on Conan, and then, like moths to a flame, they all sank into the sand and were defeated!
After the death of Kogoro Mori, the darkness on Conan dissipated a little, and the pair of "human" eyes gradually emerged!
Confusion and thought emerged in those eyes!
Then, Conan took more proactive actions, which was not a good thing for humans, because in this stage play with the theme of detectives and criminals, Conan, who took the proactive actions, improved his abilities and methods as a detective to a higher level.
Mo Yu watched this scene and knew that this was the fourth special historical event in this week.
After experiencing the death of Kogoro Mori, Conan began to feel confused. He vaguely felt that something was wrong, and he gradually began to "wake up".
In Beika Town, it is somewhat difficult to continue the research on Haibara Ai because Conan starts to look for the main characters more actively and more frequently, and every time he looks for them, he involves them in the case.
Regardless of day or night, endless cases come like a tsunami. Haibara Ai, who used to be somewhat motivated, has become visibly lazy. Many times, she has been unable to move, just entangled by the dark tentacles, and is carried by Conan when traveling like a piece of luggage. During this time, Conan will constantly harass Haibara Ai through intensive soliloquy.
The only thing Haibara Ai can be thankful for is that although Mouri Ran has gone crazy, she still cares about her as much as before. She is also willing to accompany her on the trip and try her best to give Haibara Ai some breathing space.
As for the human side, worse things are yet to come. Conan shows signs of "waking up", and then he also shows signs of "trying" to walk out of Beika Town.
The magnificent wall that was built by the joint efforts of many countries, suppressed by several mechanized legions, and even where Gin had been stationed for a long time, was of no use at all. Conan was in Beika Town one second, and in other places in Neon, such as Osaka, the next. Then, with his appearance, those humans who had fallen into madness but had not yet been captured and devoured by Beika Town, rioted instantly. In an instant, hundreds of murders broke out like crazy.
If we have to find one piece of good news, it is that Inspector Megure finally had a long-awaited vacation. However, he had a rare free time, and looking at his colleagues in the Beika Town Police Station who were like zombies, his expression became more and more silent. He tried calling a few times, but got no response. No, it's not that there was no response at all, because people like Sato who appeared in the original work still had some reaction, but this reaction was more like sleepwalking.
After so many years that were so long that they could not be calculated, the Beika Town Police Station, whose attendance rate was so high that it was impossible to act based on the data, was the first to collapse completely!
Inspector Megure did not go anywhere during this rare vacation. He just sat in his office, watching everything in silence, like a corpse guard, watching over his colleagues who were like the walking dead, and also watching over the corpse of the Beika Town Police Station which was still alive but had begun to rot.
After a long while, Inspector Megure said to himself:
"There's no point in taking a vacation. There's no one to talk to. I feel so idle. Hasn't Brother Maori summoned a case yet? Oh, no, Brother Maori seems to be dead. How did he die? Forget it. I don't know when that little brat Conan will come back. When he comes back, Beika Town will be lively..."
After talking to himself, Officer Megure sat motionless in the police station office, like a zombie, also waiting...
Waiting for the god of death to return from his business trip and summon them once again as they become increasingly corrupt.
Moving with withered legs, running around in endless cases, opening rotten lips, speaking the lines that are performed over and over again.
Even though this scene was caused by the thread of fate that entangled his hands and feet and forced them to move, Inspector Megure no longer cared about it. He felt that only such endless overtime and running around could make everyone in the Beika Town Police Station, including himself, seem to be still alive, even if it was just appearance.
Mo Yu watched this moment and knew that the fifth special historical event of the first week had occurred.
During his rare vacation, Inspector Megure watched the Beika Town Police Station and his colleagues that had been completely wiped out in the endless time. He finally gave up his vague persistence, completely collapsed, and went completely mad. He embraced his own destiny and took the initiative to become a zombie puppet following the footsteps of the god of death.
When the god of death appears, the zombie puppets will follow, waving flags and cheering for him, and boosting his power.
This is enough, nothing else matters.
At this moment, Inspector Megure completely gave up thinking...
The hope and encouragement created by Kogoro Mori did not last long, and what humanity experienced afterwards was only a more cruel fate.
But humans did not give up!
The enemy is a huge and terrifying monster, like a god or demon. The only thing humans can do is to follow the example of their ancestors and walk the path of humanity again.
Pick up those seemingly insignificant "stones" from wherever you can reach, then use all your skills to grind them, and use up all your physical strength to polish them desperately, until the "stone" shines with a sharp cold light. Finally, hold high the "stone" weapons and launch a desperate charge towards all invincible enemies!
In order to survive, humans can challenge everything.
The sixth special event of the first week was thus born.
Countries around the world have united as one, exhausted all manpower and material resources, and developed epoch-making artificial intelligence and virtual reality technologies, but they are unique and cannot be replicated, because they are the only accident that was created after a long period of attempts with all human power!
Compared with the evil god who possesses incredible magical powers, this super black technology forged with all the power of mankind is just a stone spear. But this stone spear carries the ambition of mankind to kill God.
Then, after complicated decisions, the fighters who would hold the "God-killing Stone Spear" were not Gin, but the Kudo Yusaku and his wife.
Haibara Ai is doing research, and the winery and humans have not stopped their research either.
Then, humans discovered that if those who were destined to be the red protagonists launched an "attack" on Conan, the evil god, the effect would be far better than others!
Based on this conclusion, Yusaku Kudo and Yukiko Kudo received pleas and commissions from all mankind.
It is no longer known what considerations and mood the Kudo couple had in mind when they accepted the mission of killing gods entrusted to them by all mankind. But when the Kudo couple were about to step into Beika Town, Gin met them.
Gin is not a person with a strong sense of ceremony, but at this moment, he gave the Kudo couple a brief departure ceremony.
All the past and future were contained in the glass that Gin raised to the two of them:
"You are heroes that history must remember. In the name of humanity, I wish you victory!"
