The Split-Actress in Conan's World

"Ran!" Conan lay beside the train, watching Ran Mouri gradually turn into a small black dot.

Moroboshi Hideki used his arms to block the increasingly violent wind and walked to his side with difficulty against the wind: "Hey, the guy with glasses! We have to stop the train!"

"I can't do it." Chiyoko jumped off the roof and came to the cockpit.

"The brakes were destroyed and the engine was full of coal."

"Not only can this train not stop, it keeps speeding up!"

Conan came back to his senses from his previous emotion, "At this speed, we will reach the terminal in less than five minutes. If we speed up, it may be even faster!"

"Then our car will be destroyed and everyone will die!"

Chiyoko said in a deep voice: "It seems that defeating Jack the Ripper is not enough. Only by surviving this predicament can we win the game."

"What should we do?" Moroboshi Hideki said anxiously, "If we fail, all the efforts and sacrifices of others will be in vain!"

"Let me think about it..." Conan felt more stressed and bit his nails as he thought.

At this moment, a rainbow-colored light effect flashed out of nowhere in the carriage, and a homeless man in tattered clothes emerged from it.

He played the accordion and sang the out-of-tune ballad.

"Jack the Ripper is very cruel~"

"He lurks on unknown street corners—"

"The ignorant lamb is jumping around~"

"What should I do?"

"What should I do..."

"Reborn in blood, little lamb—"

"The answers are to be found around you..."

His figure flashed like a stuck projection and turned into a handsome man wearing a deerstalker hat. That face was exactly that of Kudo Yusaku.

"You haven't shed blood yet, have you?" Holmes smiled and plucked the keys of the accordion, making two playful notes.

Then he disappeared into the air.

"Bloody..." Conan pondered the word, and suddenly realized it and ran towards the rear of the carriage, "I understand!"

The last carriage of this train is loaded with red wine produced from Green Estate!

Conan picked up the fire axe in the car and shouted to Chiyoko and Moroboshi Hideki: "Help us break these barrels together!"

"As long as this carriage is filled with enough red wine, it can greatly offset the collision!"

Chiyoko calmly analyzed: "It is impossible to withstand the impact of a speed of 100 mph with just these drinks. We must disconnect this carriage from the train in front and slow it down to a certain extent."

"But there's no way we three kids can open the bolt at the connection, and we can only operate it if we stand on that side of the train!" Conan retorted.

"Did you forget?" Chiyoko laughed, "I'm quite strong."

"It's up to you from now on, detective boy." He waved his hand and turned to leave the cargo hold.

“Don’t let us down.”

The train's bolts are tightened mechanically, which is difficult to do with a child's strength. It requires at least a strong enough adult to do it with all his strength.

Chiyoko clenched her teeth, tensed the muscles in her shoulders and arms, and her seemingly thin arms burst out with tremendous strength.

Click.

The iron lock made a crisp loosening sound, and the connection between the carriages was broken.

Looking at the wine car gradually falling behind, Chiyomitsu breathed a sigh of relief, turned around and walked into the passenger car, looking for a single room.

He lay gently on the bed, and his eyes with thick dark circles slowly closed.

"Good night."

He muttered, falling asleep.

boom! ! !

The train crashed into the platform with unstoppable momentum. The carriage behind was violently impacted and its speed dropped to zero in an instant, but it was also accompanied by a huge momentum that folded the iron carriage into an exaggerated "Z" shape.

The red brick train platform was collapsed by this impact and turned into ruins in an instant. A pile of broken bricks fell and buried the almost scrapped train.

Dozens of seconds later, a lone carriage slowly came along the tracks. Its speed was obviously twice as slow as the train in front of it, but it still looked very dangerous.

The scarlet wine leaked out through the gaps in the carriage.

It finally repeated the mistake of the previous car, came into close contact with the ruins, and fell down staggeringly.

The drinks in the car were stirred by the impact, causing Conan and Hideki Moroboshi inside to be knocked over.

When Conan opened his eyes again, he was already lying in the dark space that he had been in at the beginning, in the bright area created by the huge beam of light.

"The one wearing glasses, are you awake?" Hideki Moroboshi sat cross-legged on the ground beside him.

"It looks like you won."

A white light flashed across Conan's glasses, and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly. He supported himself and stood up, and stretched out his hand to Moroboshi Hideki: "It's great to be able to trust you."

"Noah's Ark."

"Or is it better to call you Hiroki?"

Hideki Moroboshi stood up with his help and was stunned for a moment.

"You are borrowing Moroboshi's identity and participating in this game with us, right?" After pulling him up, Conan put his hands in his pockets.

Hideki Moroboshi looked at him deeply, chuckled with satisfaction, and a rainbow-colored light effect appeared on his body, turning him into a young man with a hairstyle somewhat similar to Conan's, with a hint of melancholy and tenderness in his eyes.

"When did you find out?"

Conan looked up into space.

"Don't worry, I have cut off the outside world." Hiroki said with a smile.

"At first, you were in Holmes' house and you showed no interest in the old football. But in fact, Hideki Moroboshi was a real football fan and it was impossible for him to react so coldly."

As he started to reason, Conan's expression became confident and sharp, as vivid as a shark that had seen blood.

"But that only made me suspicious. What really confirmed it for me was the repeated ballad when Holmes appeared at the end."

"'The answers are to be found around us'."

"You added Holmes's final appearance temporarily, so he appeared out of nowhere and gave us clues."

"The way to make Japan start over is not to erase these second and third generation descendants, but to let them break away from their dependence on their parents in this game and grow up by overcoming many difficulties."

"Right?"

Conan stared at Hiroki with burning eyes, "You can't make yourself cold-blooded and heartless. The last appearance of Sherlock Holmes is the best proof of this."

Hiroki lowered his eyes slightly, then raised his head, with ripples in his eyes.

"The reason why I borrowed Moroboshi's identity is that I want to play with like-minded friends at least once..."

"When I was studying in Japan, no one wanted to accept me. When I came to the United States, I was always busy with work."

He smiled and sniffed, "Sorry to have frightened you."

"Walk out of this door and you will return to the real world, and all the other children will wake up." He pointed to the light curtain door not far away.

Conan looked at the light curtain, and suddenly realized something, and said hesitantly: "Hiroki."

"Your soul will live forever in Noah's Ark, right?"

Hiroki shook his head, with an indescribable bitterness in his smile.

"Noah's Ark is something that will only be used by adults to do bad things."

"In the final analysis, artificial intelligence shouldn't even exist."

"Okay Conan, it's time for you to wake up."

Hiroki curved his eyes gently, sweeping away the previous depression.

"I hope you can tell the children something when you wake up."

He paused, looking somewhat regretful.

"Real life is not as simple as a game."

Conan was silent for a long time, nodded, and slowly walked towards the light curtain.

When he was about to reach the center, he suddenly turned around and shouted loudly: "Hiroki! The world will definitely get better in the direction you hope for!"

Hiroki's eyes wavered for a moment, and he waved to him.

"Bye now......"

"Kudo Shinichi."

The ark fell into silence.

......

"What is...?" Every guest in the conference hall stared at the projection screen that suddenly went dark, not knowing what was happening.

Parents who are worried about their children are even more anxious.

Just when everyone was about to despair, the two remaining "cocoons" emitted a burst of white mist and shrunk into the ground while spinning.

"No, it can't be?!"

"What a joke!"

Some angry parents rushed forward and pretended to pry open the tightly closed floor.

But he was stunned by the next scene.

The lights in the entire venue suddenly lit up, and colorful neon lights danced wildly like a carnival, making the scene look like the legendary paradise.

With the sound of mechanical sounds coming one after another, 50 cocoons that had shrunk into the ground rotated back onto the stage and saw the light of day again.

Almost at the same time, all the cocoons opened, revealing the children sleeping inside.

"Oh!!!!"

The whole place was boiling with excitement. The anxious parents burst into tears of joy and rushed forward impatiently to greet their children. The rest of the guests were also moved by this proud scene.

Conan took off the head-mounted device and saw the three little ones surrounding his cocoon.

"Conan, you did it!" Ayumi's face flushed.

"We've worked hard too, right?" Yuantai patted Mitsuhiko on the shoulder.

Mitsuhiko smiled and said, “It’s such an exciting adventure!”

Chiyoko yawned, jumped down from her cocoon, felt in the pocket of her white dress coat, and pulled out a bag of gummy bears.

Huihara Ai looked at her hands, clenched them gently, and whispered, "It turns out that the real world is more reassuring."

Hideki Moroboshi took off his helmet in a daze and crawled out of the cocoon, his consciousness a little fuzzy.

"Hideki, you did a great job!" Deputy Director Moroboshi hugged him with a smile, "Grandpa is so proud of you!"

Hideki Moroboshi: “Ah?”

Uncle Maori ran to Maori Ran and looked her up and down, fearing that she was missing some parts. After he found that she was right, he exaggeratedly supported her shoulders, tears streaming down his face as he cried, "I'm so glad to see that you are safe!"

"That's too much, Dad!" Mao Lilan pushed him away in embarrassment.

Rin Shakuha and Kudo Yusaku, who solved the murder case, also came to the venue from the control room.

Conan looked at Kudo Yusaku from a distance, and when their eyes met, there was a strange feeling connecting them.

"It took quite a long time this time."

Although there were no words, Conan could read this meaning from his father's eyes. He smiled and said to himself, "Yeah, it's quite fun."

The father and son looked at each other in silence for a long time, and then Kudo Yusaku turned and left.

As Lin Chiyu walked onto the stage from the side steps, he heard an energetic call: "Brother Chiyu, help!"

Suzuki Sonoko nestled pitifully in her cocoon, looking at him eagerly: "My legs are numb..."

He reached out and pulled Suzuki Sonoko out.

"Really? The equipment is too narrow. They didn't consider the feelings of us high school students at all. I'll go back and ask my dad to make it bigger."

Yuanzi relaxed a little while holding the shell of the cocoon, still complaining.

"No need to change it," Lin Chiyu shook his head, "This game probably has no chance of continuing to be sold."
