Conan’s Corpse Picker

   Chapter 957 The Changeable Detective

   It is a game after all, and the night did not last long.

   In the poker club, not long after the players had a rest, a touch of fish maw white appeared on the horizon.

  In the early morning, a group of people went out early and came to the vicinity of Whitechapel.

  This is one of the locations where Jack the Ripper committed crimes.

  …

  Others scoured the streets for newspapers, ready for information from what Moriarty said was the Sunday Times.

  Conan unknowingly slipped into the courtyard of Whitechapel and observed the situation thoughtfully.

   There is a notice posted on the wall. Conan took a closer look.

   It reads:

  [October will also hold a parent-child charity bazaar on the second Sunday.

   Those who want to participate, please bring items that match the theme of 'Parent-Child'. ]

  Conan: "…" It will be held "also" in October. That is to say, it was held once in September—counting the date, the "Parent-Child Charity Auction" in September happened on the day that Honey was killed by "Jack the Ripper". And according to the information found from Sherlock Holmes, when Honey died, there was a pair of parent-child rings by her side.

  …

   There are no more clues around.

  Conan silently integrated the known information in his mind, and went back the same way to the side of his teammates.

   It may be that he was lucky. He just arrived on the street, and there was a small newsboy passing by.

  Conan's eyes lit up and waved his hand: "Bring me a copy of The Sunday Times!"

   he said, touching his pocket.

After    entered the game, their appearance and the things they carried were all reproduced one-to-one.

  Conan thought happily, fortunately he brought a lot of pocket money with him.

   But after a second, watching the foreigners coming and going on the street. Conan remembered the background of the current era, holding the island coin in his hand, and froze slightly.

   He said to the newsboy, "...I only have Japanese yen on me."

   A few meters away, "Zhuxingxiushu" glanced at the NPC selling newspapers.

  npc little newsboy handed out the newspaper with one hand, and the other hand extended towards Conan enthusiastically: "Come on, 80 yen."

  Conan: "…Thank you."

   is really convenient.

  Fortunately, at present, Noah has not lost his mind to the point of slashing people everywhere, and they still have hope of customs clearance...

  …

  Conan took the newspaper and found a group of his friends.

   A group of people clattered through the newspapers and, as Moriarty said, opened to the advertisement column of the Sunday Times.

   Soon, they found a short line of words:

  [To clean up the stage of the Opera House tonight.

  MtoJ]

   "MtoJ...MoriartytoJack?" Conan quickly confirmed the target, "'The Killing Order' should refer to this."

  Suzuki Sonoko looked at this last century newspaper curiously.

   She looked left and right, and suddenly found an advertisement for the opera house, her eyes lit up: "I mean this - this should be the goal of 'Jack the Ripper' today!"

"Which one?" Conan looked at Suzuki Sonoko in surprise while confirming the advertisement, and then he was speechless: I always felt that after seeing "Professor Moriarty" last night, Sonoko became very motivated. The deputy is very satisfied with the way the helper is "Moriarty"...

  Conan followed Suzuki Sonoko's line of sight, and soon saw another advertisement—

  [A triumphal performance! Principal Divas of the Royal Walter Opera, Erin Adler']

"Irene Adler?!" Conan was startled, then frowned, "This is the only woman Holmes ever loved. Moriarty used her as a target, probably not just to lure Jack the Ripper, but Really want to kill her... this devil!"

  Although Conan once thought that Professor Moriarty was an admirable genius in some ways.

   But at this time, they are placed side by side with the idol Sherlock Holmes, and the two are about to clash violently...

   As expected, idols are more important.

  Conan couldn't help but wrinkle the newspaper a little, his eyes glowing with anger: "We must stop his conspiracy and save Erin Adler!"

"Yeah!" Suzuki Sonoko nodded vigorously, nodded, and whispered, "I don't know if Mr. Moriarty will be there to watch. Since he is the game's appointed 'helper', he should be there with him. Let's meet up." As she spoke, she couldn't help but blushed when she remembered the details of the time she helped.

   "It's impossible to say." Conan remembered that "Professor Moriarty" was going to murder his idol's wife, snorted, and retorted:

"Although we didn't see Sherlock Holmes, we did get a lot of useful clues at his residence - maybe the real helper was actually Sherlock Holmes. And 'Moriarty' didn't talk to 'Jack the Ripper' at all. 'Fuck, he's just a misleading item in the game settings. On the surface, he's helping, but in fact, he's always ready to backstab us... In short, this kind of guy who likes to play with people's hearts can't be trusted!"

"Heh, fickle child." Suzuki Sonoko patted him on the head and glanced at him, "I don't know who told us about the brilliant achievements of Professor Moriarty last night. '."

   "Alright, alright." As the only sensible quasi-adult present, Mao Lilan intervened between the two of them and forced back the increasingly outrageous dialogue trend:

   "Let's go to the Opera first. Remind Miss Erin Adler to avoid her—she'll be completely safe when Jack the Ripper is caught."

  …

The    scene quickly approached evening.

  The Opera House is brilliantly lit. Ladies and gentlemen, dressed in formal attire and arm in arm, entered the venue one after another.

   Jiang Xia and Miyano Akemi also appeared nearby.

   However, they did not enter from the front door, but through the staff passage at the back door.

  I was walking towards the auditorium while visiting the backstage of this ancient flavor.

   On the way, when passing a fork, someone suddenly blocked the way.

   "...?" Jiang Xia raised his eyes and saw an NPC with a mustache.

   The steward NPC saw the raw face, twisted the funny beard on his lips, and stopped him dedicatedly: "This is the backstage, and idlers are not allowed to enter!"

  "..." Miyano Akemi poked Noah.

  —Noah attached great importance to this game. On their side, he left a slap-sized spherical slime, which acted as a communicator.

It was suddenly poked at this moment, and it recovered, looked at the steward blocking the road, and then looked at Jiang Xia, who was staring at the steward's beard and rubbing his chin thoughtfully, and later realized: "I forgot to tell you. Well, I didn't mean to let him block the road - just now, the players said they planned to report to Erin Adler to stop the show... In this case, the scheduled chase may not be played, so I set up the interception program -If you want to pass through here, you can revoke it at any time. Just remember to open it again after you pass it."
