Conan's other self

"Danger!"

On a road with only a few dim street lights, Mitsuhiko knocked away Kikukawa Seiichiro, who was unable to react to the attack, but his whole body was hit by a wine bottle, and his whole body began to flicker.

Kikukawa Seiichiro looked at Mitsuhiko blankly, and then was helped up by Jiang Shouhuang and moved aside. Mitsuhiko's body on the other side began to flicker rhythmically, just like the light on Ultraman's chest, as if after the countdown ended, it would turn into a point of light and dissipate in the air like the previous enemy.

"Misuhiko!" Genta knocked the drunk man to the ground with a headbutt, and Ayumi also shouted worriedly.

"Ah, I seem to be out of the game... please next time——"

"Ayumi, Command Seal!" Haibara Ai pulled Ayumi aside to avoid another drunk man's attack. Feng Yuan kicked that man's knee, and then When he fell towards himself, he put his knee on his chin and pushed the other person to the ground.

In front of his eyes, this enemy also turned into white light and gradually dissipated in the air.

And Ayumi over there, reminded by Haibara Ai, quickly used the command spell according to the method he had tried before. Mitsuhiko finally stopped when the flashing became more rapid, and his body became solid again.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

"It's amazing..." Mitsuhiko touched the place where he was hit just now. Although there was no clear pain, he just felt that he was hit there. "I almost forgot that it can be treated..."

Xiaolan on the other side kicked her opponent away, and the opponent disappeared directly into the air, and then took a breath. This was the last of this wave of enemies.

"Thank you so much just now, thank you." Sonoko bent down and thanked Hideki Morohoshi. Just now, this child worked very hard to protect her.

"I'm just worried that if you are out, I will be out too. I have nothing to thank you for, troublesome guy."

"..."

Annoying little devil, Yuanzi muttered in his heart.

Everyone is reunited.

"Is everything okay?" Conan looked at everyone and breathed a sigh of relief when he found that everyone was still there.

"What a joke!" Yuantai said proudly. He has now grown up to be able to deal with an ordinary enemy alone.

"However, I caused Ayumi to use another command spell, and now there is only the last one left..."

"It's okay, Mitsuhiko!" Ayumi said, "Thanks to you for protecting me just now!"

"I also used it here..."

Yuanzi and Jiang Shouhuang also echoed.

"This can't continue like this," Haiyuan Ai frowned and looked deeper into the road, "Don't you think the enemy appears a little too frequently?"

"Yes," Yuanzi agreed, and began to list the situations they encountered along the way, "The homeless people who lost their minds because they were too hungry, the thieves who were caught breaking into houses, the robbers who blocked the road, the hateful human traffickers, the people who were everywhere smelling of alcohol. A guy looking for a fight..."

"And every time it will turn into a battle in the end." Xiaolan took over the words and took another breath. As the main combat force, she had eliminated the most enemies and looked a little tired.

They have gained a lot of experience along the way, but their physical strength is limited, and it will obviously be too much for them to continue.

"The indescribable smell in the air is also stronger."

"Also," Fengyuan added, following Haibara Ai, "as we get closer and closer to Baker Street, these criminals seem to appear more and more frequently..."

"It seems so..."

"Don't make it so weird," Conan argued. "There is Sherlock Holmes on Baker Street. How can there be such a high crime rate?"

"What's so strange about this," Sonoko said, "Events often happen around the famous detective Sonoko!"

"Speaking of which, incidents often happen around my father... I remember Shinichi also said that famous detectives can attract incidents..."

"Huh? As the most famous detective, aren't there crimes everywhere around Holmes?" Mitsuhiko was a little surprised.

"How can it be…"

Conan continues to try to defend his idol.

"Maybe it's just because he happens to be away." Fengyuan said, "Anyway, we can't continue like this. There's still a long way to go. If it's still like before, we won't be able to get out."

The current situation is that it is still unclear whether Holmes is a normal setting and whether others are present. Even if you risk your life to see Sherlock Holmes, you may not be able to pass the level.

According to Mitsuhiko's analysis, in the game this is probably equivalent to an area of ​​the game that cannot be reached yet. They must have gone the wrong way.

"What should we do now?" Morohoshi Hideki asked.

Conan was a little depressed about not seeing his idol, and Maplehara could only answer by himself: "The previous patrol officer said that he would go back and report the case to the Lestrade Police Department, which means that the Lestrade Police Department is still there. Since we go directly to Holmes If it doesn’t make sense... then let’s go to the Lestrade Police Department first.”

From the words of the patrol officers, it is not difficult to infer that the Lestrade Police Department is most likely still in Scotland Yard. Everyone agreed and began to change direction. After that, there were many fewer "criminal incidents" that they encountered by chance, which made them Convinced of the way.

Scotland Yard refers to the Metropolitan Police Service, named after its location in the old Scottish royal palace. It will be moved to Victoria Embankment in two years' time, but it is still in its original location.

In order to take care of the players, the distance was shortened in the game, but they still walked for a long time.

Scotland Yard has arrived.

There were still lights on here, and there were no crimes nearby. The police officers looked like normal people, which made everyone feel more relaxed.

Just like borrowing the name of Uncle Maori, Conan skillfully borrowed the name of Holmes and allowed everyone to meet the Lestrade Police Department smoothly.

This is a middle-aged man wearing a bowler hat and a big belly, and as for his face...

"Uncle Megure!" Ayumi shouted subconsciously.

Kaedehara suppressed the desire to complain. This was obviously one of the bad tastes of Dr. Agasa and Kudo Yusaku.

"Huh? No, I'm the Lestrade Police Department." This is the most normal character they have encountered so far, and the familiar face makes people feel very friendly. He seems to be easy to talk to, "What do you want from me? "

"It's like this. We have something important to report to Mr. Holmes, but we find it difficult to get through..."

"Oh... no wonder."

Police Department Lestrade thought for a moment, "The crime rate there is so high these days, it will certainly be difficult for you kids to get through... He went to Dartmoor."

"Dartmoor?" Conan was stunned for a moment, "Police Department, what day is it today?"

"September 30th."

"...September 30, Dartmoor," Conan thought for a moment, suddenly realized, turned back and whispered to the people waiting for him to negotiate, "I understand, this is the Hound of the Baskervilles incident, and Holmes is not in London now. "

"..."

This guy Conan once again whispered things he shouldn't have said in front of others.

However, the Lestrade Police Department did not seem to understand the details of Holmes' current situation, and did not pay attention to Conan's words, but continued to ask them what they wanted to report.

Even if they didn't know the characters in Conan Doyle's novels, just by looking at the other person's face, everyone felt that the Lestrade Police Department was credible, so Conan thought about his words and spoke:

"Mr. Holmes asked us to help investigate Jack the Ripper, and we found important clues——"

Standing next to him, one of Lestrade's men suddenly changed his expression. Without saying a word, he withdrew from the crowd and walked backward towards the door.

This surprised Fengyuan.

This man had just come over to listen, but suddenly wanted to leave quietly. The Lestrade Police Department did not have any conversation or eye contact with him...

"uncle?"

Feng Yuan shouted at him.

The man suddenly ran away.

The movement behind him interrupted Conan's conversation, and everyone turned around to look at this scene in surprise. Realizing that there was something wrong with this person, he was on the inside of the crowd, and there were other police officers at the door, so Fengyuan just shouted to the police officer at the door:

"Stop him!"

But he clearly overestimated the quality of Scotland Yard police officers.

The police officer at the door was stunned, and the man rushed out of the door. On the contrary, Yuantai, who was on the outermost side, chased after him as soon as he heard Feng Yuan's shout.

"..."

It was too dangerous for Yuantai to be alone. Although they did not understand the current situation, everyone hurriedly followed him.

But just as they came to the door, they heard a sudden gunshot.

…

This is the first one out.

When everyone rushed to Yuantai's side, he seemed to have skipped the flashing stage and began to turn into white light and dissipate.

A mosaic of gunshot wounds could still be seen vaguely on his chest.

"I'm so sorry," Yuantai touched his head, "I was the first to be eliminated."

"Genta!"

"Hey, Mitsuhiko, you have to protect Ayumi. If she gets hurt, I will make you look good——"

"Don't worry, I will never..."

Mitsuhiko didn't say any more.

Yuantai has quit the game.

Ayumi next to her looked like she was about to burst into tears, "Why doesn't the command spell have any effect? ​​I clearly used it just now!"

"Maybe it's because Genta was considered to be... eliminated on the spot," Haibara Ai paused. Genta seemed to have been shot in the heart, "He directly skipped the previous flashing stage..."

Everyone's mood was a bit low.

"Hey! Are you going to give up like this?" Hideki Morohoshi said dissatisfied, "There are still so many of us here!"

After all, as long as one person can pass the level, Xiaolan comforted them with a few words, and the children cheered up a little. Only then did the Lestrade Police Department arrive belatedly with a few of their men.

"It seems that guy is Moriarty's subordinate. Alas, I should have noticed it earlier." Police Department Lestrade sighed after hearing the situation.

"Moriarty!" Conan said in surprise, "Is that guy also in the game?"

"Edogawa!" Haibara Ai quickly reminded Conan.

Moroboshi Hideki and others behind him whispered who Xiaolan and Maplehara Moriarty were, and Conan quickly stopped talking, but the Lestrade Police Department seemed to have his own understanding of such words.

"Of course it's still there. Holmes told me not to tell anyone about his investigation into Jack the Ripper... But now that it's like this..."

"I'll take you to 221B Baker Street." Police Department Lestrade continued.
