Conan's Corpse Picker

... Then who is he?

Outside the door, "Zhuxing Hideki" suddenly sneezed, and his shoulders felt a little heavy.

Noah rubbed his nose suspiciously and looked around.In the end, I decided to ignore these and continue to advance the plot.

He quickly made a sound and protested to Conan and the others who were contemplating, urging in a cocky tone, "Don't block the door! Didn't the landlord let us in, go in quickly! It's freezing weather! dead."

"Well, good." Conan came back to his senses, and entered the room with complicated thoughts.

……

Although I couldn't see Holmes.

However, because the landlady regarded them as "Baker Street guerrillas", they successfully sneaked into Holmes' residence.

Life was at stake, and while the landlady was making tea, a group of people rummaged through the house in a very rude manner.

After a while, they found a piece of information that looked very helpful, which was sorted out by Holmes himself—"Investigation on Jack the Ripper".

"The first case occurred on September 9. The deceased was Honey Charles Sturt, a 8-year-old woman who lived alone. The location of the remains was the Whitechapel area and the open space next door to St. Mary's Church. A pair of rings of different sizes were left at the scene .

"Second...

"The third...

"Overall, Jack the Ripper, who threw London into panic, brought social unrest like never before. From this point of view, it can be confirmed that he is related to the wise leader of the dark, 'Professor Moriarty' ..."

Conan: "..." The wise leader in the dark?

Although in some respects, Holmes did appreciate Professor Moriarty and spoke highly of him.But it's not enough to appreciate that in the private investigation report, give a compliment to the enemy...

Conan was silent for a moment, and soon found an explanation by himself: It is likely that some suspicious Moriarty fans were mixed in among the staff responsible for filling in the text, so they did not write too negative comments.

but……

After reading this, Conan's eyes paused for a moment, the corners of his eyes twitched, and he couldn't help but whisper:

"It's fine if you can't find Sherlock Holmes, but why did this one appear? And it seems that he is also with Jack the Ripper... The difficulty of this dungeon is not too high."

—James Moriarty, known as the Napoleon of crime.Sherlock Holmes' nemesis.

It is said that the dark part of London is controlled by him, and even the whole of Europe has been influenced by him.

……

"Except for this speculation about Professor Moriarty, everything else is a standard criminal file." Haibara Ai quickly read the file while Conan was in a daze.

She thought about it: "In other words, according to the general style of play of the game... Next, we have to find a way to meet this 'professor' for a while."

Sonoko Suzuki couldn't help joining the conversation: "Although judging from the promotional animation given by the customer service, 'Jack the Ripper' is the final boss of the game, and 'Professor Moriarty' is only used to find his clues .but……"

She rubbed her chin, weighed the impressions of the two in her mind, and said hesitantly: "But I always feel that the more powerful and mysterious person is actually Moriarty - look for him when you have time, Maybe we've all caught Jack the Ripper."

"Moriarty's whereabouts are indeed not easy to catch. The same is true for Jack the Ripper, but..." Conan's eyes lit up slightly, thinking of what to do next, "However, there is a person with 'Professor Moriarty' 'Relevant people must not be hard to find.'

"Sebastian Moran. Colonel Moran." Conan said, "He is Professor Moriarty's most loyal confidant and the number two dangerous man in London. But in comparison, his whereabouts are easier to find Much more—he is said to be very good at poker, and hangs out at the poker clubs downtown!"

……

This clue sounds much more reliable than "find Moriarty".

A group of people quickly reached a consensus and decided to go to the poker club in the city center to see the situation—now, with Baker Street as a reference, other places are not as difficult to find as when they first entered the game.

Just now, when two fake kids and two high school girls got together to study Holmes' notes.

Next to it, a few real children listened half-knowingly, while wandering around in this museum-like room.

The second-generation small group usually likes to play football, and they were quickly attracted by the antique football in the house.

And the Boy Detective Team skillfully rummaged through boxes and boxes.

While Conan and the others found the breakthrough of "Colonel Moran".

Kojima Genta and Tsuburaya Mitsuhiko looked at the drawer opened in front of them and said happily, "Look, there is a gun here!"

"Put it back." Conan stopped them from taking the gun, and said seriously, "This kind of old gun is very inconvenient to use. Not only may it be snatched by the enemy, but it may also be activated at the moment it is shown. The other party’s killing intent. Maybe they didn’t intend to use their guns—in short, it’s better not to bring inappropriate weapons.”

Chapter 951 NPCs Are Not Scary

"Oh, good..." Genta and Mitsuhiko touched the beautiful metal pattern on the handle of the gun, and put down the gun regretfully.

Although they often don't listen to Conan's words, after getting along for such a long time, the two also vaguely feel that Conan is more reliable than them.As for the current matter, which concerns the lives of fifty people, it is best to listen to advice.

In addition, what if they insist on confronting Conan, causing huge troubles later, and then they are unlucky...ah no, they were lucky enough to clear the level and meet Brother Jiang Xia who also walked out of the game alive, and then, Brother Jiang Xia knew The situation here...

"..."

bang-

Mitsuhiko and Yuan Taizhong closed the drawer, shivering.

Then the two avoided the terrible drawer like the plague, ran quickly to the side of the others, and walked out of the house with them, preparing to find the "Colonel Moran".

Soon, "Zhuxing Hideki" was the only one left in the room——Noah was the last one.

……

After the others left, he opened the drawer again and looked at the gun.

Although Noah still wants to enjoy the game more. .But now, since he doesn't plan to self-destruct after this dungeon is over, there are other opportunities for games after that—the group of acquaintances of the psychic master's master are quite interesting, and they should be able to play with them for a long time.

In addition, Noah remembered that after a while, Jiang Xia still had something to do in reality, and that matter was related to "sending Sindora on the road", so relatively, in the game, the progress needs to be accelerated a bit.

——There are too many people in this dungeon, so let’s eliminate some of them first.

And this gun is an important prop to cause commotion.

Noah picked up the gun, turned around with a smile, and was startled.

——Behind him, there was an extra person at some point.

Jiang Xia was dressed in an authentic British gentleman's attire, holding a cane, standing in the room.It seemed that he had been watching a show in the void, and at this time he finally showed his figure.

"...It's you." Noah breathed a sigh of relief, lifted the hem of his clothes, and put the gun into his trousers to hide it.

After the contract, in this space, Jiang Xia's authority is even a little higher than Noah himself.

Noah is used to being a "god" in his own territory, and suddenly a person appeared from behind... It really scared the AI.

Jiang Xia watched Noah's movement of hiding the gun:

"If you don't like being an 'inner ghost', you can discuss it with Akemi Miyano and ask her to work harder, which can also speed up the progress of the player's elimination." He remembered that this AI with a good touch seems to have a hidden The desire to "experience the game".

"No, there's no need. That's all right now."

Noah didn't have the slightest guilt or guilty conscience of "going to backstab his teammates", but his eyes flashed eagerly:

"Clearing the level without waves is really boring-just like the 'eagle' in the eagle catching the chicken, someone must be responsible for sacrificing himself and increasing the difficulty of the game."

As he said that, he patted the gun on his waist and said confidently, "This is not being a ghost, this is a great sacrifice."

Jiang Xia: "..."

...It was just a transparent ball, but it turned out quite black when cut open.

However, what Noah said...

"..." Being an insider among the players, cheating people secretly, seems to be really fun.

Next time, if you have a chance, you can bring a few acquaintances in to try it out—just now, Jiang Xia had nothing to do to stroll around Noah, and found that there seemed to be some brand new prototypes of the dungeon, waiting for their perfect development.

……

Next to it, the players bid farewell to the landlady and went outside.

Blown by the cold wind blowing on the street, they recovered from their respective thoughts, and suddenly found that there was one person missing.

When I looked back, I saw "Zhuxing Hideki" walking out unhurriedly. Along the way, he also looked at the decorations in the aisle, without any apology for being late.

Considering his childish temper, the others were not surprised.

Conan glanced at Zhu Xingxiu, and suddenly remembered something.

He turned his head and looked at the "counting clock" on the tall tower in the distance, his face changed slightly.

——When they entered the room to search for information, 19 more players were eliminated.Now, the number pointed by the minute hand is "30".

...Ten minutes passed, and the five dungeons added up, leaving only 30 people.

This terrible elimination rate, as well as the excessive speed, made Conan's heart tense.

Suzuki Sonoko followed his gaze, and also noticed the situation, and she kept muttering in her heart.

Although she doesn't like playing games that much, she has participated in the planning of some games for fun before, and in the process, she has learned a little bit by ear.Suzuki Sonoko was thoughtful:

"Without us, the elimination rate in other dungeons has reached 50%. And we have all survived until now. Since it is a dungeon of the same game and there is no difficulty rating, theoretically speaking, the elimination rate everywhere They should be about the same...Could it be, could it be that we are about to encounter some kind of scene where there will be a large number of casualties?"

She shrank away from Mao Lilan with some fear.

However, Mao Lilan was also afraid.

The two huddled together, shivering in the cold wind.

"If this is the case, the imminent 'death threat' refers to the next 'Colonel Moran'."

Hui Yuanai used to be a criminal member who often saw big scenes and gin.Thinking about the game npc, it is impossible to be more terrifying than the silver-haired man in black. On the contrary, she is much calmer, and rationally analyzed:

"'Colonel Moran' is not a good guy. He is greedy, vicious, and extremely loyal to Professor Moriarty—if 'Jack the Ripper' went around being manipulated by Professor Moriarty, then we and ' To be hostile to Jack the Ripper is to be hostile to Moriarty, and Colonel Moran will naturally not be polite to us."

"But we'll have to look anyway—we've got no other clues."

Conan doesn't pay much attention to the game's off-site settings, but his attitude is more optimistic: "And dungeons are different from dungeons. Other dungeons, especially 'pirates' and 'arenas', are originally settings that are easy to die in battle. But our side is a detective dungeon—as long as everyone does not act separately and be cautious before making a decision, we will definitely be able to avoid the death option."

……

Fifteen minutes ago, Conan said so confidently.

15 minutes later, outside the back door of the poker club.

Conan made a silence gesture to the others: "You guys hide nearby, don't walk around casually, I'll go in and check the situation."

Noah: "..." Didn't you just say "Don't act separately", the fickle little glasses...

The high school girls and the boy detective team usually go out with Conan, and they are used to this "they wait, Conan explores around" mode, so they didn't say anything.
