Conan's Corpse Picker

But now, the person involved, Mr. Moriarty, happened to be standing in the room, as their ally...

……

Conan turned his head and glanced at "Moriarty" behind him.

Seeing that Professor Moriarty stopped politely at the door without approaching, looking like a neutral theater character, Conan secretly prayed that the professor must not cause trouble.

Then he turned his head, looked at Irene Adler, and decided to follow the previous plan and tell the truth:

"Please suspend tonight's performance - Sherlock Holmes' old enemy, the killer sent by 'Professor Moriarty', is likely to attack you tonight!"

Suzuki Sonoko stood by, and upon hearing this, she quietly leaned over to make amends:

"The main reason is that the 'killer' is very dangerous, he is completely out of control! Killing people is also very crazy if you don't listen to the professor."

"Irene Adler" tilted her head in doubt: "Why did they kill me?"

"because……"

In the middle of speaking, Conan suddenly stopped.

——"Because we asked 'Professor Moriarty' to ask about 'Jack the Ripper'. Unexpectedly, the professor was too enthusiastic and wanted to use assassination missions to help us lure 'Jack the Ripper' out, and then he chose you Treat it as a sacrifice"... This kind of words always feels a little hard to say.

"..." It sounds like all the villains, what if Irene Adler refuses to accept their help in the future.

……

I was frozen in place, not knowing whether to speak or not.

At this time, a voice suddenly came from behind.

The friendly and enthusiastic Professor Moriarty actually took the initiative to help the players out: "It may be because Moriarty really wanted to see Holmes' sad expression when he lost you."

"So that's the case." Irene Adler didn't panic, but said softly with sparkling eyes, "Actually, I'm also curious—if I die, how he will feel sorry for me."

Mao Lilan was stunned: "No! This is very dangerous!"

Irene Adler smiled at her: "Everyone will protect me instead of Holmes, right?"

As she spoke, she raised her beautiful eyes, and her encouraging gaze swept over everyone one by one.

When it landed on the young gentleman at the door, Jiang Xia nodded to her as if she was reliable.Irene Adler couldn't help but raised the corners of her lips, held up the hem of her skirt, and gracefully returned a salute to him.

Conan saw this scene keenly, and the corners of his eyes twitched slightly: "..." Hey!Who are you looking at!Can you distinguish between friend and foe first! !

……

"Okay, it's time. It's time for me to play." Irene Adler looked away and sorted out the accessories on her clothes.

She walked through the crowd unhurriedly, and when passing by the players, she reached out and rubbed the heads of the children: "If you want to enjoy my performance, you can watch it on the side stage——I will ask the staff to reserve it for you." Come here. However, you must enjoy the performance quietly and don't make trouble."

When she passed the door, she instinctively saluted Jiang Xia next to her again—although the face and character of "Kudo Yukiko" were completely applied, "Irene Adler" was an npc with a certain amount of intelligence after all.And Jiang Xia has a higher level of management authority than Noah, she can vaguely feel the difference in this person.

……

Conan, Mao Lilan and Suzuki Sonoko watched this scene silently, thinking that Professor Moriarty's aura was actually quite strong.Irene Adler was very friendly to him, could it be because there was some attraction between smart people? ... But having said that, "Professor Moriarty" stood there quietly, not looking at his face, but only at his clothes and actions, he really looked like a calm adult.

Perhaps in the judgment of "Irene Adler", "Professor Moriarty" is more like a qualified helper than the combination of two female high school students + a group of elementary school students.

"What should we do now?" Noah put on the skin of "Mosei Hideki" and leaned next to Conan, curious about the plan of this smart kid.

Conan: "..."

It may be that Yukiko Kudo has been tricked too many times, but when he suddenly meets an NPC who is exactly like her, Conan is already instinctively ready to be tricked.

He listlessly didn't want to speak: "What else can I do? Let's do this first."

……

The players quickly went out, followed "Irene Adler", and were about to go to the side stage.

When they reached the intersection, they were suddenly taken aback.

—Professor Moriarty and Colonel Moran, walking the other way.

The players looked at the npc of this unknown enemy and friend, and blurted out: "Where are you going?"

Miyano Akemi glanced at them: "We have reserved VIP seats."

Players: "..."

……Almost forgot.Professor Moriarty was also a decent man.It was impossible to actually huddle with them in the dark, cramped side stage, and serve as Irene Adler's bodyguard.

Upon hearing this, Moriarty turned around and issued a heartwarming invitation: "Come together?"

"...Thank you, I still don't need it."

Although they wanted to experience the VIP seats in this world, it was a pity that they had to stand beside Irene Adler, protect her, and catch the "Jack the Ripper" who came to kill her.

Otherwise, tonight might be the last concert in their lives.

Sonoko Suzuki trotted over, shook the hand of "Professor Moriarty" reluctantly, and said in a firm tone, "As soon as this matter is over, I will buy the game cabin, wait for me!"

Although there are many handsome guys in reality, it is not fun to date a handsome guy made of paper.

Suzuki Sonoko: "..." Well, that's right, in the future, I can ask my dad to invest more, open a few more copies of the game, and when something like "Moriarty's Crime Book" comes out, the player can set it as Moriarty. Professor Riati's beautiful assistant, team up to experience the dark world of London...

In short, for a bright future, we must go out alive!

Sonoko Suzuki let go of Moriarty, turned around and returned to the player team, his eyes ignited with a raging fighting spirit like a flame.

……

The opera performance will soon begin.

Conan and others guarded the side stage dedicatedly.

When Irene Adler sang, they carefully observed all the corners around where people could hide, guessing the possible attack angle of "Jack the Ripper".

But after searching for a long time, I didn't see any suspicious people.

Chapter 961 Hard work behind the scenes

At the same time, in the opera house, the VIP seats in the middle of the second floor.

Jiang Xia was sitting behind the railing with a goblet in his hand. He seemed to be concentrating on admiring Irene Adler's performance, but in fact, he had already switched his field of vision and was watching Matsuda Jinpei, also known as "Jack the Ripper" "work hard.

Contrary to what the players imagined, Matsuda Jinpei never considered the pointless thing of "suddenly rushing out and stabbing Irene Adler to death" from the very beginning.

Moreover, compared to being an assassin with a cold weapon, he actually has other areas that are better at.

There is a saying that the dragon slayer will eventually become a dragon.

As for Matsuda Jinpei's conscience, although he hasn't completely sunk into the ground, he is quite good at blasting.Now that he is suddenly forced to switch from a bomb disposal expert to an explosive monster in the game, he should look good.

——At this time, Matsuda Jinpei was holding a bunch of homemade time bombs, recalling the structure of the opera house, and putting a bag here and a bag there like a courier.

This is not a simple task.

He must not only ensure that the explosion effects are dazzling and earth-shattering, but also leave enough escape routes for players and NPCs who have a strong desire to survive.

Of course, more importantly, don't forget to avoid the box where Jiang Xia is.

——Although the master of the psychic medium did not say it directly, once the theater explodes later, he will definitely not be willing to flee in embarrassment with the crowd.Rather, I prefer scenes such as "sitting on a high place in chaos, tasting wine elegantly, overlooking the struggle of all beings".Of course, the point is not "seeing others struggle", but that this has the aura that "Moriarty" should have.

Matsuda Jinpei: "..." The last point is the most difficult.

Neither can the people in the box be blown to disgrace, nor can the explosion point be too far away, otherwise there will be no artistic conception of "sitting safely and alone amidst the explosion".Hey, I knew that when I fought Noah and its npcs before, I should have played lightly, so that Noah could cheat and install a harmless special effect.Unfortunately now...

The migrant worker sighed sadly.Carefully calculate the weight and installation location of the bomb, and lay the groundwork patiently.

…………

When the opera was at its peak, on the bombs above the stage, the timer clicked to the end and finally reset to zero.

"boom--"

"boom--"

Loud explosions came one after another, and the entire opera house seemed to tremble.The ceiling and the ornaments on it broke and collapsed, splashing smoke and dust on the ground.The guests kept screaming in horror, no longer caring about enjoying the opera, got up in a panic, and rushed to the exit.

Around the stage, the shaking is most obvious.

Irene Adler was forced to stop singing.She stepped on the ground, trying to maintain her balance like a deck in a storm.

At this time, there was a crackling sound from above the head.She raised her head instinctively and followed the sound, just in time to see a large piece of spotlight and brackets cracking and falling, hitting the top of her head.

"careful!"

In the chaos, the two children from "Zhuxing Xiushu" rushed over and knocked Irene Adler away, and they were smashed into foam by the pair of brackets.

……

In the box on the second floor, the split version of "Crystal Slime" lying on Jiang Xia's table looked at this scene with slight surprise: "These kids can save people... they learn quite quickly." During the game, the scene where the Boy Detective Team rescued the little fat man.

compared to audiences everywhere.At this time, in the VIP seat, the fake Moriarty and his subordinates looked quite relaxed.

The dust and flames of the explosion sprinkled around them, without much lethality, but just a dazzling special effect.

……

But the same thing falls on the player's side, but it is nothing more than hell fire - this holographic game is too real, and all senses are restored.At this time, a horrible rule such as "If you fail the game, you will be electrocuted to death by AI" is added.The players' fighting spirit and desire to survive are not much worse than in the real world.

In the blink of an eye, two more teammates were eliminated.But now, it's not the time to remember your teammates -- as long as there are people alive on the field, they won't die.If we stop to mourn in silence, and then all the staff lead the dogs, then it is really over.

"Go this way! Hurry up!" Conan calmly found a way out.

He directed the two female high school students, "Zhuxing Hideki", and Irene Adler who had just been rescued, to let them leave the theater as soon as possible.

Just now, Conan thought of many ways to "use the stage environment to capture Jack the Ripper".

These include but are not limited to "use all possible props to trip the opponent", "turn over the bright light next to him and shoot him directly in the eyes" and other schemes.

But no matter which one, you must be able to see the location of "Jack the Ripper".

But who knows, this guy didn't show up around the stage at all, but solved the problem simply and rudely with bombs.

"..." Conan led a group of friends and fled outside amidst the falling debris like a meteorite. His face was calm and calm, and he wanted to pull the hair of Yusaku Kudo and Dr. Ali in his heart——"Jack the Ripper" didn't matter. From the name to the crime style, the guy who is better at using cold weapons, why did he suddenly get a bunch of bombs out? !

……

I cheated on my father all day long, but I didn't expect to be cheated on by my father today.

Conan scolded his luck in his heart.

He and a few teammates rushed out of the auditorium. When they turned the corner, Conan suddenly remembered something. He turned his head and looked towards the second floor.
