The Phantom Thief of Heart! But Conan

Chapter 485 Conan: Let me play, I want to play too!

"What is this..." Everyone who walked into the tea room was attracted by what was on the screen. "The logo of the Phantom Thieves of Heart?"

Mouri Kogoro looked at the screen and then looked out the window in surprise.

It's very remote here. The only TV signal is maintained by the receiver assumed by the hotel owner. The mobile phone network is intermittent. How do the guys from the Phantom Thieves achieve such accurate delivery?

"Welcome to 'Noah's Ark's Amphitheater,' dear viewers. I am Noah's Ark, and I am also Ark from the Phantom Thieves of Hearts. Nice to meet you all." When Omura Jun, who was at the end of the team, walked into the tea room, As if a sensor was triggered, the logo that had been playing in a loop on the screen finally changed.

Standing in the center of the stage, Noah opened the curtain and smiled at the surprised people outside the screen.

He didn't know whether the leader's sudden move was a sudden move or a premeditation, but he had to admit that he liked this feeling very much.

It doesn't mean that you can manipulate the stage at will and play with the players who enter it - well, this part is also very interesting, and it successfully soothed his resentment at having his pen taken away by Karasawa's group.

It feels really good to stand in front of the stage, show your true identity to others, and tell them your name loudly. It reminds him of the time when he was just born.

Who would have thought that the artificial intelligence that built holographic games and created shocking kidnapping cases was actually born to become a universal intelligent assistant?

The first words he learned and kept repeating were "I am Noah's Ark, nice to meet you."

"I'm sorry for taking up some of your time." The rosy-faced little robot took two steps back happily, letting the program title behind him completely enter the camera. "As we all know, our Phantom Thieves are committed to solving the cycle of evil at its root. A third-party non-profit organization that resolves cause and effect and allows justice to be done, I will invite you all this time because the guests in this program are closely related to you."

Without waiting for everyone who was confused to ask questions, Noah's Ark involuntarily cut the screen and played them the two videos of Yumi Horikoshi and Kazushi Nakamichi that were shown to Conan.

"... Just show it to them, okay?" Conan, who was also locked in the game and couldn't do anything, had to accept Joker's invitation and found a seat on the sofa to sit down, looking ahead speechlessly. The live broadcast screen of the program.

To some extent, Yumi Horikoshi and Kazushi Nakamichi agreed to participate in the so-called game of Noah's Ark in order to prevent their true colors from being exposed.

As a result, they were broadcasting live to the outside world and sent out these two pieces of content. Wasn't this a social death directly in front of these old classmates...

"No problem." Tangze shrugged easily, "It's written in their user agreement. We can unconditionally store, broadcast, and use all their image data in the holographic game. They agreed to it themselves. .”

Conan looked at him in astonishment.

Is it just the user agreement that is two to three meters long and automatically confirmed in 10 seconds?

What's the difference between this and not having their consent!

"What are you looking at? Are you playing games on your first day? This is what our game operators are like." Tangze shrugged without any psychological burden, and handed over a bag of potato chips, "Or, the original flavor. "

"Is this also a simulation of Noah's Ark?" Looking at the potato chip package in Joker's hand, Conan was surprised again, "Can he also simulate the taste and satiety of food?"

In the virtual game back then, because the game was fast-paced, the story advanced quickly, and the game process was related to everyone's life safety, no one had anything to do to try to see if the food in the game was edible.

But he had already seen Noah's Ark's ability to simulate other senses.

If everything could be simulated, then this game would be so fun to play... Hey, it's all Thomas Sindora's fault and the organization. What an interesting game this would have been!

"Of course he simulated it. Do you want a Coke?" Tangze said without changing his expression as he took out snacks directly from the item bar.

After giving Tang Ze a resentful look, Noah held his breath for a moment, but finally did not deny his nonsense.

Anyway, except for Captain Zuan and the guys he brought in, no one would come to the game to eat. If he said he changed it, then so be it.

Soon, the two guest personal VCRs finished playing, and the screen jumped back to Noah on the stage.

Conan, who was also waiting for what the Phantom Thieves would do to them, his eyes widened the next moment.

"Is this the scene from the Jack the Ripper game?!" He sat up straight and said very honestly, "Can I go in and play? I want to play too!"

————

"This is "Scandal in Bohemia"..." Mao Lilan, who covered her mouth, made a muffled voice of surprise, "This, this is the place we saw in the holographic game last time!"

The luxurious carriage stopped at the intersection of Baker Street.

Wearing a mask to conceal his identity, a middle-aged man of medium build stepped out of the carriage.

Although he was wearing heavy and elegant clothes, his shocked and hesitant expression and eyes still betrayed his identity. This was undoubtedly Nakamichi Kazushi who was tied into the game.

At this time, the camera cut to another scene. A woman wearing a black evening dress and a lace mask on her face opened her eyes in shock.

The two of them each held a piece of letterhead in their hands. The moment they realized this, they both lowered their heads and started reading quickly.

"This is a letter explaining the rules of the game to them." Noah's voice sounded at the right time, "Miss Mao Lilan is right, this is the plot of "A Scandal in Bohemia" excerpted from the Sherlock Holmes collection. .”

"Can you hear us?" After realizing this, Mao Lilan was stunned for a few seconds and immediately asked his question, "Did you also capture Tangze and Conan? Are they all okay?"

"Don't worry, we never hurt innocent people." Noah answered the question as expected, "It's just that the little detective's nose is too sensitive, which almost hindered our action against Ms. Horikoshi Yumi. In order not to affect the plan, we took them with us They're just at the special viewing seats. Don't worry, after everything is over, I guarantee they will come back unscathed."

"That's it..." Mao Lilan, who had no doubt about the credibility of the Phantom Thieves, finally breathed a sigh of relief and turned his attention to the TV screen, "Uncle Nakamichi and Aunt Horikoshi had an emotional dispute, and it was almost fatal. At this point, is it really useful to participate in a game or something?"

"That's natural." After laughing twice, Noah declared very proudly, "After this period of investigation and verification, we found that there are loopholes in changing one's heart. We have indeed temporarily eliminated some people's twisted desires. , but if you don’t keep them away from the source of stimulation, or fundamentally resolve the grudge itself, and give them a period of time, evil thoughts will still breed..."

"Here we go again, right? 'Cut the cycle of sin' or something." Conan, who declined the Coke and ordered an iced coffee, complained after hearing this, "Now you are not just changing your mind, you have exaggerated to the point of wishing Is it even to the point where the grudges themselves have been eliminated?”

"That's more or less what I mean." Tang Ze nodded, biting another potato chip, "There is no one-and-done solution to all troubles in the world, but as long as you can do it, even if it just improves the world, that's good. matter."

"Is this the new method you came up with?" Conan pointed at the two people on the screen whose expressions changed inexplicably.

"Yeah, you've already witnessed Ark's true ability, haven't you?" Tangze raised his hand and tapped his temples, smiling tacitly, "The game is just a form, or in other words, just a condition for accomplishing the goal. "

Thinking of Noah's Ark, who bluntly stated that he had implanted psychological suggestions in the minds of the children who participated in the game at the end of the game, Conan suddenly became enlightened when he looked at the reserved smile on the face of the little robot sitting aside.

Not only the scenes, this special program is a very complete waste utilization of "Cocoon".

Noah, who is well aware of the working mechanism of "Cocoon" and uses it in his own games, has the ability to directly instill concepts into others - Karasawa believes that this is where the real cognitive ability of Noah's Ark lies.

Although Noah is not an awakened masker, who can say that he does not have special cognitive abilities? Do you have any problem with the artificial intelligence that the mask is a palace of a giant ship?

Over there, Noah was also explaining to the audience in the outfield.

"The rules of the game are actually very simple. In reality, the main conflict between Horikoshi Yumi and Nakamichi Kazushi lies in their intimate photos. This is a threat to Nakamichi Kazushi's marriage, and it is also Horikoshi's biggest reliance. So. , why not use it as a bet to play a game."

Following his explanation, the two people who had finished reading the letter each raised their heads, their expressions slowly changing from panic to one of determination.

"The two of them play the King of Bohemia and Irene Adler in "Scandal in Bohemia" respectively. In the game, they each have roles that help them."

Nakamichi Kazushi took a breath, put the letter in his hand into his arms, and looked steadily at No. 221 in front of him.

He is not a fan of detective mysteries, but as a criminal police officer, he has been familiar with some mystery novels, so of course he has heard of Sherlock Holmes.

He was originally here to give the detective a commission, wasn't he?

On the other side, Yumi Horikoshi, who followed the instructions of the letter and found the secret door on the wall, took out the photo of herself and Kazushi Nakamichi from the niche, and her expression was not so good.

Although she was in the game at this time, of course, the photo she got could not be the photo she actually carried in her bag, but seeing a photo that was indistinguishable from the real thing meant that the people in the Phantom Thieves were not lying, and they had indeed found it. Once the game fails, they will destroy these things, causing her to completely lose the power to continue to threaten Nakamichi Kazushi.

In "A Scandal in Bohemia", Irene Adler relied on her intelligence to see through and expose Holmes' flaws, and fled away in time before they came to her door. What about her, and the characters who can help her are who?

"What's wrong, dear?" Just when Yumi Horikoshi was holding the photo with a gloomy expression, a gentle male voice sounded from behind her.

She turned around suddenly, and a handsome blond man stood behind her, showing her a gentle smile: "What's wrong, are you troubling me?"

"Is this Irene Adler's fiancé?" Conan, who is familiar with Sherlock Holmes, reacted quickly, "Frey Norton?"

"Well, that's more or less the case." Tang Ze, who was munching potato chips, replied vaguely, "But his impression has a source."

Noah's gaze subtly moved toward Karasawa, and then quickly moved back.

Theoretically, the assistants on one side are Holmes and Watson, and the assistant on the other side is just Irene Adler's husband. It doesn't seem to be symmetrical... But if the person playing the role here is not programmed A shadow, but a real person?

Speaking of which, where did Karasawa call people out... This is clearly a palace that Noah has 100% control over, but I didn't feel any movement in the different world navigation APP?

"Just like the plot in "A Scandal in Bohemia", one side seeks and fights for it, and the other side hides and protects it. When the game is over and everything settles, the outcome will be clear."

Watching Kazushi Nakamichi walk into the very familiar door of No. 221 Baker Street, Mao Lilan was stunned for a moment and hammered his palm: "If Noah's Ark uses content from the previous holographic game, wouldn't it mean... …”

Her eyes slowly brightened.

When they went to play, due to the interference of Noah's Ark in the script, Holmes and Dr. Watson themselves did not appear in the game. They only saw the photo on the fireplace.

So, now it’s…

"Hey..." Conan, who was also aware of this problem, froze the hand he stretched out to take the potato chips, and quickly looked at Joker accusingly, "You can already control everything freely, so you can't follow my dad's design. , use the image of him and the doctor?"

"Don't you really want to participate?" Karasawa patted Conan's round head with a smile, "Isn't this just right? I've given you the opportunity to play an idol, and you're not satisfied yet?"

Seeing the man in a coat standing in the center of the room as the door opened, Conan was speechless for a moment.

A bit like Kudo Yusaku without the mustache and glasses, but the overall outline is slightly softer and the hairstyle is different. The young version of Kudo Shinichi turned his head and looked at Naka, whose face was completely covered and seemed not to want to be recognized. Dao Hezhi smiled playfully.

On the sofa on one side, the young version of Tang Ze, who had short curly brown hair and was holding a cup of black tea, also turned his head and cast a curious look at the visiting guests.

It's over, this damn modeling, suddenly I don't want to play anymore.

"Although the hair is very different and the face is rounder, it really looks like my uncle." In the "monitoring room" on the other side, Miyano Akemi clicked her tongue twice, "Noah, take a screenshot of this picture. I’ll show it to Shiho if I get a chance.”

"Will Shinichi be like this when he grows up?" Mao Lilan stared at the mature version of Kudo Shinichi in his twenties, not knowing what he thought of, and his face slowly turned red.

She raised her eyes and glanced at her father's back, but couldn't help it, and quietly took out her cell phone to take a picture.

Noah, who was receiving information from several directions at the same time, listened to everyone's speeches and proudly puffed up his chest. The triangular light strip on his chest became a little brighter: "I used a special algorithm based on your current appearance. , combined with the offset of parental characteristics, etc., to create the most likely future appearance."

"And it effectively circumvents the issue of image rights." Tang Ze, the game's chief planner, raised the can in his hand with satisfaction, "Perfect."

"...Thank you very much." Conan gritted his teeth and squeezed out a sentence from his throat.

Can't you just follow the original work and create an image of Sherlock Holmes? How can you play games with a face like this!

"First-class algorithm, absolutely accurate!" Noah patted his chest, "DNA-related genetic mapping research has always been one of the fields Hiroki is engaged in. His DNA traceability system even discovered the relationship between Sindora and Jack the Ripper. ...In this aspect, I am definitely the number one artificial intelligence in the world! If you want to know what your child with Miss Mao Lilan will look like, you can come to me to help you calculate it, I am very confident!"

...Oops, what should I do if I suddenly have a heartbeat?

"Wake up, don't start dreaming yet." He slapped the primary school student out of fantasy time, and pointed to the screen in front of him, "Both sides have started taking action."

Following the original plot, Holmes, who directly revealed the identity of the King of Bohemia, confidently promised: "A six-inch photo of you and Ms. Irene. I believe I will bring you good news soon. "

Nakamichi Kazushi nodded reluctantly and hurried out of Holmes' residence, while nervously lowering his head to read the letter in his hand again.

The King of Bohemia in the original work has used many means to try to take away the photos from Irene Adler, including finding someone to rob her, exchanging Irene's luggage, and hiring thieves to search her house.

But he hasn't tried it yet...

Although in theory, the existence of Sherlock Holmes is a great help, didn't Sherlock Holmes in the original work also fail?

Is Yumi a cunning and courageous woman like Irene... Nakamichi Kazushi used to firmly believe that she was not, but now, he is not so sure.

"Have you changed your mind, dear?" Fry Norton, played by Lyon, looked at Yumi Horikoshi tenderly, and said softly like a poisonous snake spitting a message, "You want me to help you hide it, or stop that man To get close to you, right? At any cost?"

Horikoshi Yumi looked at the game NPC in front of her, and felt a strange illusion from him, as if there was really a human soul watching her through these golden eyes.

Forget it, don't think too much, her goal now is to protect the photos, win this game, and let the guys from the Phantom Thieves of Hearts fulfill her wish... She just needs to know that these are the people who are here to assist her, that's enough.

"Yes. I will not marry him. We are not suitable. If I have to choose a husband, I will never choose him." Said this sentence very sincerely, Horikoshi Yumi gritted her teeth, "But I I will not let him complete his engagement. These photos will definitely appear at his wedding as scheduled. You must help me."

Leon bent his eyes and showed a playful smile that was very similar to the face of Kudo's new version of Holmes.

No, it should be said that it is very similar to Karasawa, because the expression prototype that Noah has collected the most recently is Karasawa himself.

Kudo Shinichi basically only has a confident smile on his face, and it is unlikely that he would smile so villainously.

Looking at Leon's face enlarged on the screen, Karasawa calmly took a sip of Coke.

When I look at it like this, I suddenly feel like he might actually be a certain Karasawa... When I smile with bad intentions, I probably look like this too. I really deserve a beating.

Happy Mid-Autumn Festival everyone XD
