In the venue, Hui Yuan Ai stood alone among the crowd.
Before the performance, I was surrounded by familiar people, but after the performance, everyone disappeared.
Qin Zhibo couldn't wait to experience the "cocoon". He saw this with his own eyes.
Dr. Agasa said that he was going to accompany Kudo Yusaku to be interviewed by reporters and would leave for a while.
Mouri Kogoro rushed to the front of the stage by himself when Okino Yoko came on stage.
Mao Lilan seems to have gone to find her best friend Yuanzi.
The three little ones had already discussed something and ran away together.
Conan also disappeared, maybe to find his girlfriend or his father.
Haiyuan Ai, who looked a little lonely, crossed his arms. In fact, this was a psychological defense posture, indicating that he felt insecure in his heart.
But fortunately, there is no organized atmosphere here, and there is also a smell of upper class in the air, which will not make me more uneasy.
At this moment, the three little ones ran back and brought a few badges.
"Haibara! Look what we got!"
The three little ones excitedly took out the badges in their hands and gave one to Haiyuan Ai.
Haibara looked at Genta, who had a fat tiger figure, with some surprise, "How did you get this?"
"We exchanged it for a limited edition Kamen Superman card!"
"Yes, yes!" Ayumi nodded, "Football reminded us that there must be things that children from rich families cannot obtain, so we got them in exchange."
Haibara Ai: "..." Having said that, limited edition cards seem to be just for the rich.
Although this method of obtaining badges is somewhat suspected of deceiving children, the only way to deceive a child is to say that a soldier never tires of deceit, so Haibara Ai didn't care anymore and accepted the kindness of the three little ones.
At this time, Mao Lilan and Yuanzi also came over, and happened to see the badges on several children.
"You guys are really amazing. You can get something so difficult to get."
What Suzuki Sonoko said is true.
After all, Sindora is an American investor, and even though she is the daughter of the president of a Japanese investor, she only received a back wave certificate, which is pinned to the shoulder strap of her red pomegranate skirt.
It's just that after the accident at the last Boston press conference, Suzuki Sonoko has no interest in this game.
Thinking of this, Suzuki Sonoko suddenly had an idea and took off the badge from her body.
"Xiaolan, I'll give you my badge too, so you can play that game with these kids."
Mao Lilan was surprised and quickly refused, "How is this allowed? Then you would..."
Suzuki Sonoko imitated Jack Ma's style of speaking and comforted: "It doesn't matter, I have no interest in this game at all."
Mao Lilan still felt something was wrong, but the three little ones were already excited.
"Okay! Sister Xiaolan will take us to play together!"
Mao Lilan looked at the three little ones + Haibara Ai, and realized that the young detective team still lacked Conan, so she wanted to give the badge to Conan.
However, several people turned around and saw that Conan had just passed the entrance of the "Cocoon" venue with his hands in his pockets.
"When did Conan get the badge?"
Several people couldn't help but wonder. Only Huihara Ai knew that it was probably given by his father. After all, Conan was a complete prodigal. ….
Now that Conan already had the badge, they didn't waste any time and headed to the "Cocoon" venue together.
There were not many "cocoons" left, and the few people did not stick to the distance between each other. They found a good seat and sat down, and put on their headbands with the help of the staff.
After a while, the boy's mechanical voice sounded throughout the audience.
"51 passengers, all passengers have boarded."
"The brainwave transmission device has been installed."
"Capsule lid, close"
"The main hardware is starting to connect."
"Enter the region code."
"Connect linker
. "
"Mini-adjust the coordinate axes."
"Punctuation correction completed, locked."
"The screen displays and the system starts."
"Energy setting completed."
Qin Zhibo, who was lying on the massage chair and listening to these complex voices, felt that this thing should only be experienced by rich people.
Play the game once and get it more complicated than launching a reusable rocket.
As the control room began to transmit instructions, a familiar glare flashed inside the cocoon's cabin.
The light gradually gathered into a dazzling white light, forcing Qin Zhibo to close his eyes.
By the time I realized I could open my eyes, the scene around me had already switched.
It's still that familiar place.
In the middle of a dark space, which may have been hastily created due to lack of funds, is a platform where light gathers.
There are five stone doors in the five directions of the platform, representing five games with different scenes.
After all, it has only been a week, so it is impossible to change too many superficial things, that is, to fix the underlying logic of the game.
But what is different from last time is that this time almost all the people in the square are children under 1 meter tall.
Since the player settings of "Cocoon" are completely constructed based on the results of the characteristic scanner inside the cabin, Qin Zhibo's height of 185cm is definitely outstanding in this.
The real king of kids!
This situation has both advantages and disadvantages.
According to the last game experience, the five games in this space are both individual competition and team cooperation.
For example, I played the Baker Street game last time, which was a typical team effort.
A game like this tests teamwork. You are not afraid of opponents who are like gods, but teammates who are like pigs.
The pig teammate last time was the Tuttle family. They wanted to surrender and lose the game. Fortunately, the Marsh family used force to deter them.
But this time they are all children. If an adult hits these children, the impact is really bad.
In addition, Sindora is likely to learn from the experience last time and cancel the teammate damage mechanism.
Therefore, if you want to clear the game this time, it is difficult to rely on a team. Individual competitive games are more reliable.
I now have level 5 car driving skills, so it would be good to play competitive racing.
Qin Zhibo glanced around and suddenly discovered another "crane".
Not far away, a hair horn attracted his attention.
It's Mao Lilan!
Qin Zhibo hurried over and asked, "Xiaolan, don't you have a badge?"
"It was Yuanzi who gave me her badge." Mao Lilan replied.
This reminded Qin Zhibo that Suzuki Sonoko also played this game last time, and she probably had some psychological shadow. ….
"Is there anyone else besides you?"
"I saw Conan coming too, and the other members of the Boy Detective Corps..."
The young man gave the group for free!
Hearing Bai Guituan's name, Qin Zhibo's face flashed with fear.
The Free Giving Group, pig teammates among pig teammates, is good at various forms of free giving.
Why did this happen to me?
After a while, several familiar faces gathered from all directions.
Several people looked at each other and saw that everyone was here!
Delivery?
Conan already knew that Qin Zhibo had a badge, so he was not surprised to see Qin Zhibo here, but the others...
"Why are you here too?"
Mao Lilan and San Xiaozhi explained their badge channels respectively.
This left Conan speechless. He came in to break the news, but they were just here to play games.
As soon as he thought about it, Conan suddenly looked at Qin Zhibo next to him.
"Uncle Qin, a death occurred in the basement of the venue after you came in. The deceased was the person in charge of this game project."
"Before he died, he left the letters JTR on the computer keyboard, indicating that the clue is in the game we are playing this time!"
Out of trust in Qin Zhibo, Conan immediately told Qin Zhibo the purpose of his investigation.
Qin Zhibo was also a little surprised after hearing this, because he had met this person in charge at the last press conference.
JTR......
Jack the Ripper......
As an FBI person from Hawaii, Qin Zhibo immediately associated the meaning from these three letters.
Among all five games, only Baker Street Adventure's game content matches this clue.
ah?
This is forcing me to play a team game!
...
In the underground control room, Yusaku Kudo and Dr. Ali came after receiving the news.
"Kashimura!"
The body of Kashimura Tadaki was just placed in a body bag by police forensics personnel and carried away.
Officer Memu was surprised and happy when he saw a familiar face coming in again.
"It turns out Kudo brother is here too! That case should be solved soon..."
Mouri Kogoro: Am I not a human being?
Megure first asked Kudo Yusaku about the relationship between the two, and learned that the deceased Kashimura Tadahina was Kudo Yusaku's bad friend in college. This time, he was invited to design "Cocoon" for the sake of his old friend.
"Brother Kudo, do you know if there is anyone who has a grudge against him?"
Upon hearing this question, Kudo Yusaku suddenly became serious and started thinking with his chin raised.
In fact, being invited to design "Cocoon" was just a cover for the outside world.
The real purpose of Kashimura Zhongbin's invitation was to investigate the cause of death of his biological son, computer genius Hiroki Sawada.
Four years after Kashimura married his ex-wife, the two divorced, and his ex-wife took young Hiroki to live in the United States.
Later, his ex-wife died of illness in the United States, and it was Thomas Sindora, chairman of Sindora Company, who adopted Hiroki.
Of course, the reason why I adopted him was because I saw Hiroki's talent in computers.
Under Sindora's training, Hiroki, who was only 10 years old, became a student at the MIT Research Institute and was engaged in the research and development of artificial intelligence "Noah's Ark". ….
Until two years ago, Hiroki suddenly committed suicide by jumping off the building of Sindora headquarters, and a generation of geniuses fell.
Suspecting that there was something fishy in this matter, Kamura Zhongbin traveled thousands of miles from Japan to the United States to join Sindora Company, hoping to investigate something.
If Kashimura has any enemies, could it be that he has already investigated something...
Kudo Yusaku held his chin and thought for a moment, but he did not choose to tell Megure the inside story he knew, but changed the topic.
"Mr. Mori, aren't you with him?"
"That boy with glasses..."
Mouri Kogoro was stunned for a moment, "You mean Conan... He was still here just now, but after he looked at the keyboard, he left here..."
Kudo Yusaku quickly walked to the console. There were three letter keycaps stained with bloody fingerprints on the keyboard.
Megure and Mouri Kogoro also followed, looking at the keyboard thoughtfully.
"If it's JR and JT, it's just trains and cigarettes..."
Kogoro Mouri fights match-fixing as always.
However, Kudo Yusaku didn't pay attention. He just took a look and immediately judged the order of the three letters based on the depth of blood stains on the keycaps.
"It's JTR."
"This is the abbreviation of a character who appears in this game. Kashimura and I both call him JTR."
"The full name is Jaketheripper."
"Jaketheripper
! "
Upon hearing this name, Kogoro Mouri and Officer Megure immediately showed shocked expressions, but Megure immediately asked, "Who is this?"
In order to take care of Megure, who is not good at English, Kudo Yusaku could only translate into Japanese.
"That's the famous Jack the Ripper in real history."
"He existed in London at the end of the 19th century. He killed five women with a knife, and for a time, London became a crazy murderer that fell into extreme panic."
"The London police were unable to solve the case in the end, which led to the fact that this serial murder remains unsolved to this day."
"And one of the game scenes that Kashimura and I designed this time is about this suspense."
Under Yusaku Kudo's reasoning, several people realized that the game body of "Cocoon" was an important clue to the solution.
Even the "Cocoon" game itself may be risky and should be stopped immediately.
Soon, Kudo Yusaku and others rushed to the game control room.
"Chairman Sindora, this is the Megure Police Department of the Japan Metropolitan Police Department."
Facing Kudo Yusaku's introduction, Sindora, who was wearing a purple suit, just glanced sideways, her arrogant attitude not concealed at all.
"Does the Japanese police want to see me for anything?"
Megu also knew that the man in front of him was an American technology giant and was not easy to mess with, so he politely said: "I would like to ask you to temporarily stop this game."
"Abort?"
Sindora snorted contemptuously, "It's really ridiculous."
At this moment, the lights in the control room suddenly went out, and then came back on.
The system alarm sounded, and the staff in front of the operation desk quickly reported it.
"Chairman Sindora, there is a sudden abnormality in the system."
"It's out of control now!"
Syndora's face was shocked, "What did you say?"
At this time, Dr. Ali, who is a technical geek, came in immediately. He quickly stepped into the battle and took over the operator's position, with his fingers dancing on the keyboard.
While waiting, Kogoro Mouri looked at the surveillance screen of the "Cocoon" cabin in the control room and suddenly spotted a familiar face.
"Xiaolan? Why are you there too!"
In addition to Xiaolan, Conan, Haihara Ai, and the three little ones are also on these screens.
In the corner of Kudo Yusaku's sight, a mature face also appeared on the screen.
Qin?
Kudo Yusaku was a little surprised because the number of the "cocoon" where Qin Zhibo was located happened to be 51.
The original plan for the two conferences was to prepare 50 experience places for each, and Yusaku Kudo knew this.
And this extra spot is the temporary compensation provided by Sindora Company after the accident at the last press conference.
After the last incident, there should be no American parents who would bring their children all the way to Japan to play this game.
Among these 51 people, the only one who may be eligible for compensation is Qin Zhibo.
But I remember the last time we parted in Massachusetts, the place he went to was obviously Arkham Town...
Just when Kudo Yusaku was a little puzzled, a shota sound suddenly came from the loudspeakers in the entire venue.
"My name is Noah's Ark."
"The game can't be stopped."
"Experiencing the simulation game Cocoon has been completely occupied by me...".
Fish is not fish
