Conan: I can hear the murderer's voice

but!

The man in the cloak still put his hands on his waist!

Most people would have been scared away if they saw a murder scene!

Those who are still standing still probably want to be in the spotlight!

but.

When the man in the cloak was about to run to Lin Xuan.

Lin Xuan slightly turned sideways and made way.

Ga?

The cloaked man was puzzled.

Lin Xuan smiled politely.

He was not a fool. When he heard that the other party was a murderer, of course he had to give way.

The cloaked man did not hesitate, and in just a few seconds, he disappeared into the darkness.

There was no sound of footsteps at all.

Lin Xuan looked at the corner where the cloaked man appeared.

The voice of that person just now...

It is estimated that someone died nearby.

Lin Xuan took a few steps forward.

I stopped in a small alley, and a pungent smell of blood immediately rushed into my nose!

In the alley.

In the faint moonlight, a woman covered in blood was lying in a pool.

Hey!

Hey!

Hey!

There were footsteps again!

Several familiar faces appeared before my eyes.

"Lin Xuan?"

"Senior?"

Conan, Ai, and Ran suddenly appeared, looking surprised.

"It seems we have been assigned to the same plot."

Conan smiled and shook his head.

I wanted to solve the case alone!

After going around in circles, I actually met Lin Xuan.

"Did you see anyone suspicious just now?"

Conan returns to the topic.

Lin Xuan turned his thumb and pointed at the alley.

"A murderer."

"I have already run past him. I am afraid I cannot catch up with him. But the deceased is right here."

boom!

Conan's brain exploded.

Staring at the corpse in amazement.

He was not shocked by the corpse, but by Lin Xuan's reaction.

[How come this guy is so calm, as if he didn't see the body! ]

[Even though it's a game, it's almost indistinguishable from reality. This reaction is very abnormal! ]

Xiaolan also let out a small exclamation.

I felt warm at first seeing Lin Xuan, but he just pointed at the corpse with a calm face.

This contrast is a bit weird...

at this time.

There's chaos in Tokyo outside!

Outside the Municipal Building!

Countless police cars are surrounding endlessly!

Policemen, reporters, and thousands of onlookers all looked nervously at the towering building!

Television stations across the country are reporting this news!

"I'm a reporter from the xx Beijing News. The entire building has been blocked by the police, but we learned from the parents of the victims that fifty children are in danger of their lives!"

"And these children are the future of Liben..."

Snapped!

inside the building.

monitoring room!

Inspector Megure slapped the surveillance console!

"The safety of these children cannot be guaranteed! Another murder has occurred in the lounge!"

"The game programmer was killed!"

He looked at the capitalist!

"What exactly is the Noah's Ark system? Wasn't this developed by you? Why can't we control it?!"

The capitalist spread his hands with a worried look on his face.

"To be precise, it was developed by my adopted son. He has been called a child prodigy since he was two years old and has a deep understanding of software development. Noah's Ark was his last work before his death."

"It's a pity that he committed suicide two years ago!"

"No one can crack this system except him. We can only do what he says!"

Inspector Megure lowered his head and sighed.

"This is a puzzle that even Sherlock Holmes would have difficulty solving, but he wants a group of children to solve it."

"How can this be!"

"These kids are the future ruling parties, wealthy people, and high-ranking officials!"

"Something happened! The entire Liben will have to go through a long period of darkness!"

Inspector Megure looked at the surveillance screens all over the room.

One child after another was eliminated!

They look normal!

I don't know.

This is not a game!

"Can we destroy those game cabins violently?"

Inspector Megure thought of a last resort.

but.

The rich man shook his head in disappointment.

"Once the game cabin detects human sabotage, it will initiate a self-destruct sequence."

"By then, there won't even be a glimmer of hope left!"

boom!

boom!

boom!

There was an earth-shaking knock on the door!

There was a burst of angry cursing outside the door!

"Give me back my grandson! You are a bunch of black-hearted developers!"

"The Liben police need to come out and explain! Where is my living child?"

"If my son dies in there, I will make life miserable for all of you high-ranking officials in the Tokyo police force!"

……

Hey!

Inspector Megure sighed.

The future seemed dark, and he knew these people were not joking.

aside.

Kudo Yusaku was silent for a while, then suddenly spoke.

"I have a solution."

"Can you turn on the in-game voice chat so I can talk to Conan?"

Conan?

Everyone's eyes lit up instantly.

correct!

Isn't there Conan?

Inspector Megure regains hope.

"I almost forgot about that kid! Although Kudo Shinichi is not here, Conan is just as smart!"

"Turn on the voice!"

Noisy!

Noisy!

【Channel connected】

Kudo Yusaku picked up the microphone.

"Conan."

In the game.

"Dad..."

Conan almost blurted out, but luckily he held back.

Everyone looked at the sky.

Kudo Yusaku's voice continued to be heard.

"You must find the real murderer Conan!"

"You are trapped in the game. If you don't find the real culprit, you will never wake up!"

"You carry the fate of Li Ben's future on your shoulders!"

Kudo Yusaku hid a word.

As a game planner, if anything happens to these kids, he will face crazy revenge from Liben’s top management!

[Connection disconnected]

"what happened?"

"I'm debugging... No! The system can't create another connection!"

"The sound can only be transmitted to them unilaterally through the game cabin!"

"It will take half an hour..."

Inspector Megure looked as pale as death.

"Half an hour?"

"In this evil age! Can these children survive that long?"

"Hey!"

"We can only hope that Xiaolan can protect everyone..."

In-game.

Conan pondered:

【What Dad said is true! 】

[Otherwise, given his personality, he wouldn't have taken the initiative to reveal that he knew me! ]

【Think about it carefully! 】

[The background of this game should be "Sherlock Holmes"! 】

[The murderer just now! He should be the notorious Jack the Ripper of the same period! ]

Lin Xuan heard Conan's thoughts.

Somewhat unexpectedly, they were trapped in the game.

To get out, you must take the initiative to give Conan some clues!

"The direction the murderer fled just now seems to be the direction of Whitechapel."

God knows where Whitechapel is.

At least that's what the murderer said.

Conan raised his eyes suddenly!

"Whitechapel!"

"I once read a book that recorded the exact location of that area!"

"That's also the area where Jack the Ripper often killed people!"

"but!"

Conan looked at Lin Xuan in shock.

“The book is barely read, and if I hadn’t been a big fan of Sherlock Holmes, I wouldn’t have even known about Whitechapel!”

"How did you know?!"

Lin Xuan smiled silently.

With his hands in his pockets, he had an expression that said "I know much more than you do."

No answer was given.

Conan didn't bother.

He knew very well that the most important thing now was to catch the murderer!

Conan relies on the memory in his mind!

Leading everyone, he ran towards Whitechapel!
