Chapter 833 Unexpected Gain (4000)

Because it was lunch and they had to go to work in the afternoon, Karasawa didn't invite them to go too far for dinner. He just found a nearby izakaya with good reviews for a meal.

Although there was no wine, the meal was definitely enough.

After lunch, Tang Ze originally planned to return to search the first class in the afternoon, but who would have thought that he would receive a somewhat unexpected phone call.

The other party invited him on the phone for an interview in the afternoon, and he agreed after thinking about it and drove to the coffee spot agreed upon by both parties.

Arriving at a coffee shop with a more classical style, Tangze parked his car in the parking space behind the door, opened the door and walked in.

The sound of the piano reached my ears when I pushed the door open, and soon the waiter came up saying "Welcome".

"Private Room 101."

Tang Ze reported the room number, and then went to the private room under the leadership of the service staff.

When Karasawa entered the room, he found a man and a woman drinking coffee.

The man was wearing a white coat as always, while the woman's red hair was as eye-catching as ever.

Yes, these two people are Rintaro Okabe and Kurisu Makise.

The phone invitation he received was from Makise Kurisu.

Although Makise Kurisu did not say the specific purpose at the time, Karasawa decided to come to see him.

Not to mention that the two of them are excellent scientific researchers, they were just involved in the previous "fake painting case" where they stole and replaced others.

Tang Ze came to ask someone to investigate and help with paint. The other party mobilized his contacts without saying a word and took Tang Ze to find him personally. This was enough for Tang Ze to express his gratitude.

"Long time no see, you two." Tang Ze simply said after taking a seat, ordering a glass and picking it up. After the waiter left the room, he smiled and chatted with the two of them.

"My friend~ I have an important task that I want to entrust you with at this moment!!"

As soon as Karasawa finished his pleasantries, Rintaro Okabe stood up and put his hands on the table. His face was full of caution, as if there was really a big task that Karasawa couldn't handle.

"Huh? What's wrong? Are you in any trouble?"

After hearing Okabe Rintaro's words, Karasawa's expression gradually became serious. Could it be that these two people coming to him were a sign of some kind of case?
  This is not impossible. After all, these two people should be regarded as their own network and have nothing to do with Conan.

So when they came to me, they took the initiative to act as a "case trigger"?
  Is it possible for me to prevent the case from happening in advance?
  For a moment, Tangze even looked forward to the rewards he would get if he could stop the branch line.

"No, no, you misunderstood."

On the side, Kurisu Makise suppressed her boyfriend who was transformed into "Phoenix Academy Fierce", while apologizing: "This is a completely private matter, and we are not involved in any trouble.

Sorry, this guy is acting sick again, just ignore him. "

"It's okay, it's okay, let's get down to business."

Of course Karasawa wouldn't care, and Okabe Rintaro would only "get sick" in front of trusted acquaintances. Although the two parties didn't have much interaction, or even met much, it was obvious that Okabe Rintaro still regarded Karasawa as someone who could Trust people.

And he knew the other person's character, so naturally he wouldn't mind, or rather he was quite happy.

"Then let's get straight to the point."

Makise Kurisu took a sip of coffee and said, "We would like to ask you if Kesouyan is still recruiting people. If so, do you think we can do it?"

"Huh?" After hearing Makise Kurisu's words, Karasawa was startled: "Why do you two think about going to "Kesouyan"? That is not a place for research."

"There is no way, the research laboratory is in crisis." Makise Kurisu said with a bitter smile: "The consortium that originally provided us with research funds behind the scenes was too greedy, and suddenly fell into a big mess. Currently, it is Return of funds…"

When Tang Ze heard this, he understood immediately. Many research institutes were backed by consortiums, and if their sponsors suffered a big loss overseas, the first ones to be affected would be the research institutes that relied on them for survival.

"But even so, I won't abandon you two." Tang Ze said in surprise.

Although these two have lost their main line, their research capabilities have been strengthened. Will the institute lay off such talents?
  "No, the main reason is that the research project is too expensive and the funding has been cut off by the superiors."

Makise Kurisu said calmly: "I heard that although the "Kosouyan" is mainly to deal with crime, it will also launch its own research and development projects in the future to make profits and operate independently."

"That's right! We are studying the world's top technology, and now we are asked to change our direction." Rintaro Okabe said angrily: "This is an insult to us!!"

"To put it simply, we originally studied high-end technology, and now the higher-ups want us to study and improve some of the original products in order to make profits."

Makise Kurisu quickly explained the meaning of Okabe Rintaro's words, and then said: "But the reason why the two of us chose the previous laboratory is because under the same conditions, they promised us the right to choose what we want. Direction of the research.

And now that they can no longer meet the requirements, we can also choose to get out of the contract. "

"That's why you found me." Karasawa suddenly understood the purpose of Makise Kurisu's meeting with him this time.

In fact, this is quite understandable. Makise Kurisu and Okabe Rintaro are the top ones.

Such people have their own arrogance in their own research fields. They can be modest and make concessions in other areas, but they are absolutely arrogant in their own research fields.

As for the one of Daida Uno?

Anyone who can become an associate professor is not a genius, but the other person at the same level is just average. On the contrary, such people are more likely to be arrogant.

Therefore, Tang Ze understood very well the decision of the two of them to change jobs without hesitation at this moment.

After all, rather than waste time there, they would rather abandon their current stable job and start all over again.

As for what the research institute was thinking, they probably forgot that this clause was included in the treaty.

After all, I heard from Makise Kurisu that the guy sent from the head office was very arrogant and forced the researchers to change their research direction just because they had contracts.

After figuring out the purpose of the two of them, Tangze's thoughts began to flow.

Judging from their resumes, it would be easy to join the "Science Research and Research Institute". After all, they are indeed "thirsty for talents" now.

However, the other party actually came to find me, probably because he wanted to get accurate information from himself to see if it was as announced to the outside world that the "Kesouyan" would also carry out research and development work after it was put into operation.

After all, it is a place like "Kesouyan" that belongs to a national institution. Although there is such a strategic plan in advance, who knows whether this is a gimmick to attract talents.

Moreover, now that the economy is under impact, it is still unclear whether this strategy of burning money in the early stage will be implemented. Sure enough, in the subsequent conversation, Makise Kurisu asked this question.

However, even if Tangze is already a consultant and is now considered the person in charge of "Kesouyan", he cannot guarantee this. After all, it is not a matter that he alone has the final say.

Even though he had already won a large amount of funds before, he didn't have much confidence. Those were for the construction of "scientific search and research", and it might not be enough to really invest in research.

He would not take a chance on whether they could develop technology that could attract money before the funds were spent.

So when Karasawa explained the situation to the two of them, Makise Kurisu and the others were a little disappointed, but they also expressed their understanding.

Although they didn't get the results they wanted, the purpose of asking about the situation was to find another way if they couldn't go this way.

"Thank you very much. Please come here specially." After taking a sip of coffee, Makise Kurisu let out a long breath and planned to end the conversation. They still need to continue to look for a suitable next home. .

"No, no, it was just in an official capacity. Aren't you going to ask me as a friend?"

Seeing that Makise Kurisu was about to end the topic, Karasawa asked with a smile.

"kindness?"

Makise Kurisu looked at Karasawa with some doubts, but then she seemed to realize that the man in front of her was not only a "famous criminal", but also a rising star in the financial world.

"You mean" Makise Kurisu's expression changed, but then she said worriedly: "But is there any problem with the impact this time?"

If it was just a purely cooperative relationship, Makise Kurisu would naturally not care about this, but if it was a kind help from a friend, the two of them would also have to consider the consequences of their research on each other.

"You don't have to worry about that." Tang Ze smiled and said: "Before the so-called "things must be reversed", I felt that there was a problem there, so I took the initiative to shrink and expand.

Not only did I not suffer any losses this time, but I also made a small profit because I kept people paying attention. "

"I made a small profit."

Makise Kurisu was stunned for a moment, unable to imagine how much money the "small profit" mentioned by the other party was, but based on her understanding of the forces behind Karasawa, I'm afraid this was just the other party's modest words.

And this was indeed enough to shock her. You must know that other consortiums were seriously damaged, but today she actually saw someone benefiting from it.

Is it true that people are different?
  "If that's the case, then I'm relieved."

After regaining consciousness, Makise Kurisu pondered for a moment and then said: "Our previous research is restricted by the contract, so it is impossible to take it away.

If you want to hire us, you have to start from scratch. Do you have any research direction? "

"Which field of research do you prefer?" Tang Ze smiled and said: "Intelligent AI, new energy, nanotechnology, etc. You must give me a general direction."

"Hey, hey, my friend, you underestimate us too much!"

Rintaro Okabe took a big sip of coffee as if he was drinking, then crossed his arms and said proudly: "We are all-round geniuses, and our goal is to promote the progress of the entire human race!!"

"To put it simply, it is the research and development of various high-tech equipment."

Makise Kurisu on the side explained concisely and comprehensively: "Because the research equipment involves various directions, the two of us are researching in many directions, so we can be considered complementary.

Of course, a top-notch piece of equipment requires too much skill, and we still need helpers. "

‘Is this the strength of the top boss?’

Listening to the other party's serious but very "Versailles" words, Tang Ze couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

The other party is just like him and Conan and others in the "Mystery World", they are all leaders in their respective fields.

In the past, I was "Versailles" to others, but I didn't expect that one day I would be able to experience "Versailles" from others.

However, Tang Ze felt relieved when the other party said this. He was really afraid that the other party's goal was to use some black technology gadget like a time machine.

Although there is no main line, it does not mean that dreams and goals will also change together. If this is the goal of the two of them, Tang Ze really has to consider whether to invest in the two of them.
  Of course, he didn't know whether their dream was really a "time machine".

However, after the main plot disappeared, the two of them became more "realistic". They just regarded this goal as a lifelong distant goal and never mentioned it to outsiders.

The reason why the research direction is high-tech equipment is to accumulate technology and experience for the "time machine".

Of course, Tangze didn't know that the two of them had such a "down-to-earth" plan. At this moment, after hearing that the other party said that the research and development direction was high-tech, he had other thoughts.

All the time, the props he obtained from the system relied on high-tech products, and he had also thought about whether he could perform reverse analysis and research on mass production.

Even if you can only get some degraded ones, it will still be very useful. If it is used in people's livelihood, it will definitely be a monopoly-level technology.

The only thing you need to worry about is whether the system will let you go.

After all, when you prevent a case, you will be punished if you cannot put the logic of the incident back into place.

And what he wants to do now will have a greater impact than an individual. After all, these technologies can affect the development of the entire society and even the world.

This idea was not something I had before, but it was an idea I had when I was planning to buy a [Lie Detection Needle] some time ago.

After all, these black technology consumable props are really painful to use, so this idea naturally came to my mind at that time.

But at that time, this idea just passed by in a flash, and I didn't think about it deeply at all.

But after meeting Rintaro Okabe and the others today, Karasawa's previous thoughts couldn't help but resurface in his mind.

And when he tentatively inquired about the system, he didn't expect that a prompt would pop up on the system panel for the next lesson.

[It is detected that the host generates the idea of ​​​​parsing system props.]

[Detected that the host already has the talent and financial resources for substantial research]

[Permission to develop technology reverse research and development.]

[Tip: The host can exchange for special permissions by completing side cases. 】

Looking at the prompts that kept popping up in front of him, even Tangze's brain was a little down for a while.
