Stay away from Conan

Chapter 298 People on the Balcony

When Yuanzi heard what Gao Yuan said, he burst out laughing, then thought about it and complained again:

"Hey... it's really boring! I can just wait until I'm in college and I can participate. If I participate, I will definitely get married to a handsome guy."

"You really...can't you have a more creative idea?"

Conan whispered in a low voice, but Sonoko heard him, and then looked down at Conan with some depression and replied:

"No - no! How can you understand, you little brat? After all, a woman's happiness is to get married!"

Conan could only show an awkward smile to lighten the atmosphere. At the same time, Yuanzi also saw Xiao Ai looking at Gao Yuan with cold eyes——

"What's the matter?"

Realizing that Yuanzi was looking at her, Xiao Ai turned her head and looked at Yuanzi coldly and asked.

In response to this, Yuanzi was stunned for a moment, shook his head speechlessly, stood up and muttered helplessly:

"Are all little girls nowadays so cold and arrogant?"

As he said this, Yuanzi was inexplicably frightened, so he simply started looking around at the men around him.

In response, Gao Yuan had no choice but to show a bitter smile, and carried Dr. Ali, who was flushed and weak from drinking, to the balcony. Seeing this, Xiaolan also helped.

"I've... told you... I'm not drunk yet... you're asking me to drink some more! Hey!"

Dr. Ali said incoherently.

"You've had too much to drink. Go outside and enjoy the cold air to wake up."

Helplessly, Gao Yuan said - really, drinking like this is almost like Mouri Kogoro.

Thinking like this, Gao Yuan was about to open the balcony window when a man's voice came from the shadow of the balcony——

"Ah, it doesn't matter... One million is enough for the bounty from the quiz show I participated in last week. I'll give you the money. For mathematicians, all they need is paper and pen. And if it makes Kumi even more dazzling, I’ll be very happy. After the celebration party, come to my room.”

The man said and hung up the phone.

Gao Yuan ignored what he just heard, but opened the glass door of the balcony and dragged Dr. Ali out - it had nothing to do with him, Quan pretended not to hear it.

"It's so ugly."

While Xiaolan was helping Dr. Ali lie down on the balcony railing, Xiaoai, who was following Gao Yuan, looked at the man who was on the phone just now and complained softly:

"This is the so-called school beauty contest."

In this regard, Gao Yuan couldn't help but asked in a low voice when he saw Xiao Ai who seemed to be in a bad mood after coming back from the toilet.

"Haiyuan, what happened just now? Why do you seem to have a strong opinion on this competition?"

"What? Do you want to know me so much?"

Xiao Ai replied coldly.

"Um...that's not really what I mean...I'm just curious."

Hearing what Xiao Ai said, Gao Yuan replied with a wry smile, feeling that the other person was indeed in a bad mood.

"Then try to reason, detective. Otherwise, you will be troubled for the rest of your life."

Xiao Ai looked unhappy and said angrily.

In response, he heard the displeasure in the other party's words, and combined with what he heard on the balcony just now, Gao Yuan couldn't help but guess:

"Is it possible that winning this competition made you angry?"

"snort."

Xiao Ai clasped his hands in front of him and snorted coldly.

"Your guess is correct. The winners and near-winners of the school beauty contest are actually such bad people. How did you judges decide?"

Hearing this, Gao Yuan finally understood why Xiao Ai was angry, but he didn't know what to say for a while. After all, if he had to say something, although he was the judge, he had no control over the final result.

"Oh! What a beautiful view."

At this time, Dr. Ali, who was lying on the balcony, feeling a little awake in the cold wind, looked at the shining sea of ​​neon in front of him and exclaimed:

"The evening breeze is also refreshing."

The gentle evening breeze cooled Dr. Ali's body, which was heated due to the influence of alcohol, so he took a deep breath happily.

"Doctor, are you okay?"

Sonoko, who was still a little worried about Dr. Agasa's physical condition, stuck her head out from the balcony and asked.

"Ah, it's okay. Come on, let's go back and have another drink."

Dr. A Li was about to walk back as he spoke, but a voice came from the shadow of the balcony——

"It must be Dr. Ali."

"Yes...yes, it's me."

Dr. A Li replied, staring at the shadows and saw a man walking into the light.

"Wow! It's Feng!"

Sonoko's eyes flashed and she exclaimed.

"Oh, it's you."

Seeing the person coming, Dr. Ali replied in a normal way.

"It's me. I read Dr. A Li's paper "How to Effectively Induce Dead Angle Appearance in Games". The content is rich and profound, and I learned some new knowledge."

Feng said and bowed to Dr. Ali.

"Yes...really?"

Dr. A Li said with a beaming face, feeling very happy that someone respected him so much.

Just hearing the name of the paper, Gao Yuan felt speechless.

"If I remember correctly, Mr. Feng, you challenged the world's most difficult code."

When Conan saw the other party, he suddenly asked.

"Just as you said."

Feng replied, then looked at Conan, feeling a little surprised, "But you know so much, kid."

"Ah... Brother Shinichi mentioned this to me."

Smiling awkwardly, Conan rubbed the back of his head and explained.

"Oh. As expected of high school detective Kudo Shinichi."

Feng said, showing an expression of admiration.

"What? Challenge the world's most difficult password cracking?"

Sonoko interjected with great interest.

"In today's network society, all intelligence is composed of codes, so it is not an exaggeration to say that today's society is a society supported by codes. Generally speaking, these codes are designed using mathematics."

Feng explained.

"Huh? Were the codes designed using mathematics?"

Yuanzi said in surprise.

"Yes."

Feng said.

Yuanzi was surprised by this and said:

"I originally thought mathematics was useless, but it has made such a big contribution to society."

"It is the honor of being a mathematician to allow everyone to understand the role of mathematics. However, it seems that everyone generally believes that the codes used today are impossible to crack. If unbreakability is not absolute, wouldn't everyone be worried?"

Feng said, with a strange light in his eyes.

"When you say that... we also..."

Sonoko said with a confused look on her face, with a slightly frightened expression on her face.

"It is likely to lead to terrible consequences such as important credit card and bank card passwords being stolen, or text messages sent by ordinary people, and important confidential information of companies being leaked."

Conan said with a serious expression.

In response, Feng nodded.

"But, is there a simple way to crack the code now?"

Xiaolan said a little surprised.

"That's not necessarily the case. The current universal codes are designed on the premise that they cannot be decomposed by simple prime factors. However, once an equation that can be easily cracked is found, all codes will fall apart in an instant."

Feng drank the champagne in his hand with a smile and continued:

"Just like not long ago, the password encryption of three foreign companies was breached in a short period of time, leading to the leakage of important information and causing serious losses. Although the hackers used three identities, the same method showed that these three It must be the same person behind the identity. I think the hacker must have mastered a method that can easily crack the password.

After listening to what he described, Gao Yuan felt a little familiar.

And looking at Feng's smile illuminated by the moonlight, Xiaolan actually felt a little scared...
