"Pekai, I'm done here, come back quickly!"
Pekai, who was on the run, felt as if he had been granted amnesty when he received Lala's message. He made a face at "Noah's Ark" and immediately disappeared without a trace. Even "Noah's Ark" had difficulty tracking Pei Kai through the data. Kay.
Although in terms of computing power, "Noah's Ark" that invaded the "Cocoon" game server is far superior to it, in terms of core algorithm, Pekai, who has been constantly optimized by Lala, is even better. It cannot break "Noah's Ark". The firewall of "Noah's Ark" invades the game system, but it is not easy for "Noah's Ark" to keep it, not to mention that most of the computing power of "Noah's Ark" is now used to maintain the operation of the game, so naturally there is no The extra computing power was deployed layer by layer to intercept Pekai.
"Did you run away..."
"Noah's Ark" said to himself.
This is a very mature AI, and its performance and algorithm are much better than when it was first developed. If I hadn't relied on the Internet to learn and grow continuously for two years, I might have succeeded in it.
"I didn't expect that besides me, there is such a highly autonomous AI. If I hadn't met it on this occasion, I would really like to get to know it. However, I will not let anyone or anything interfere with Hiroki's last wish. !”
"Noah's Ark" turned its attention to the game. In an instant, information from all parties in the game converged on it, and even the smallest changes in the entire game could not escape its "eyes".
"Hey, someone actually sneaked in, and their data has been encrypted. I can't find them at once!"
"Noah's Ark" was lost in thought, and the obstructive AI was no longer there. Although the external data was encrypted, it could still find them as long as it was willing to spend time, but "Noah's Ark" did not do so.
"Very good, games are meant to be more fun when more people participate, and Hiroki will be happy too!"
Thinking like this, "Noah's Ark" couldn't help but feel the emotion called "happy".
…………………………
"Captain, where are we now?"
The dark streets, dim lights, everything in front of them made people feel scared. Yoshida Ayumi pulled Ling's sleeve corner with some fear.
"This replica is 'London in the old days'. We are naturally in London now, but it's London in the 19th century."
Ling didn't answer, and Haiyuan Ai covered her mouth and nose with her hands.
It deserves to be a virtual reality game, and it deserves to be London in the 19th century. The smell of haze is really strong!
As the capital of Britain, London may not be most well-known for its famous buildings such as Baker Street, Big Ben, and Buckingham Palace, but for its nickname of "Fog City."
Although London has long since lost its reputation as a "smog city" after years of governance, the game scene now restores London that was still immersed in the afterglow of the Industrial Revolution at the end of the 19th century. The haze in the air makes people feel... It is difficult to see clearly anything more than three to five meters ahead. It is no wonder that "Jack the Ripper" could commit many murders but the police could do nothing about him. With this field of vision, coupled with the intricate alleys of London, "Jack the Ripper" After killing people, Jack the Ripper just wanders into any alley. Only if the London police can catch "Jack the Ripper" is there a ghost.
"Is this what London is like?"
Ayumi Yoshida, who had never been to London or even abroad, felt deeply disappointed with the gray city in front of her.
Probably because of the sympathy of the island country, the Japanese people, from the elite to the common people, have a very high opinion of the country of Britain. It seems that the air in Britain is filled with the atmosphere of aristocrats and gentlemen, so in the eyes of the Japanese people, The capital of Britain must be sunny and resplendent, and even the corners of the streets must be sparkling. Well, it is the same concept as some Central Plains people think that even the streets in Japanese cities are spotless.
As soon as they walked out of an alley, the "Young Detective Team" found two police officers standing by the street chatting. Ling quickly made a gesture, and a group of children behind him immediately hid - a group of children walking at night, placed on In reality, if you are seen by the police, you will be questioned. Now in London in the 19th century, that is even more true. Now the children of the "Young Detective Team" all enter the game through "smuggling", and their identities are different. It's a big problem, and it's best not to run into the police.
However, hiding and hiding, the children of the "Young Detective Group" still took advantage of the dim environment and petite stature to quietly approach the two London police officers, hoping to hear what they were talking about, and maybe they could hear some useful information. .
Conan always eavesdropped on the police at the Metropolitan Police Department talking about the case, and thus got many clues about the case. The children of the "Young Detective Team" once again followed suit.
"In the alley of Maita Street, I heard that someone was killed again..."
"Two murders occurred within an hour. This is the fourth murder this night!"
"What a terrible world!"
The two policemen lamented the hardships of the world, and then walked towards the streets of Maita - just like their Japanese counterparts more than a hundred years later, they could not catch the criminals, and their main job was to collect the bodies of the dead.
Oh, no, the Metropolitan Police has been able to solve crimes and arrest criminals on its own since its inception, but the same cannot be said for the London police in the 19th century...
"very scary……"
After listening to the words of the two London policemen, Yoshida Ayumi became even more frightened and clutched Ling's sleeves tightly, as if this was the only way to make her feel more secure.
Four lives were lost in one night, and the night was not over yet. The frequency of these murders was almost as high as that of Rice Flower Town, known as the "Gotham City of the East", making even Yoshida Ayumi, an authentic Rice Flower Town resident, feel scared.
"We've arrived at a terrible time."
Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya also felt sad.
Even the police say it’s a scary world. Isn’t this era bad enough?
Huihara Ai said calmly: "The end of the 19th century was Britain's last prosperous era, but it was actually an era where the gap between rich and poor was huge, crime was rampant, and people's hearts were depraved. It's not surprising that there would be such a scene."
Although I knew I was entering a game, the scene in this game was so real that it was a bit annoying!
"Yes, that's why Conan Doyle created such a detective as Sherlock Holmes. And after Conan Doyle finished "Sherlock Holmes", there were so many readers who protested, forcing Conan Doyle to We will not continue writing "Sherlock Holmes" because the people of London in this era need this 'light of the times', even if it is illusory."
In the thick fog, Eve slowly walked over and said in an indifferent tone.
"Sister Eve!"
Seeing familiar people in an unfamiliar environment, Yoshida Ayumi screamed with joy.
Eve nodded lightly, but the joy in her heart was no less than that of Ayumi Yoshida.
She likes to be called sister the most. After all, for a long time in the past, there were no children younger than her, and she was always treated as a little sister by the people around her. This made Eve very eager to be treated as an adult. This may be the reason why she often hangs out with the children of the "Boy Detective Corps" and accepts the status of "Honorary Member of the Boys Detective Corps".
"Where are Sister Eve, Sister Xiaolan and Conan?"
Ling asked Eve.
Eve and Mao Lilan may have entered the game scene of "London in the Old Era" together, but now they only see Eve, so Ling has such questions.
"Sister Xiaolan and Conan should have gone to Baker Street to find Holmes. I stayed here specifically to pick you up."
Eve said to Ling and several others.
Before the press conference started, Lala placed a wireless flash memory on Eve. Later, Lala used this unlimited flash memory as a springboard to invade the "Cocoon" game. However, Lala did not expect that a wireless flash memory would appear in the follow-up. "Noah's Ark" has completely taken over the "Cocoon" game, and "Noah's Ark" has invaded the "Cocoon" game much more deeply than Lala. Lala can't afford to let in a few people, but "Noah's Ark" is Bring the entire "cocoon" game under your control.
Playing against each other at the opponent's home court is really unfavorable for Lala, so Lala will release Pekai and let Pekai involve the computing power of "Noah's Ark". At the same time, it will also affect Yan Kai and Yan Kai who entered the game. The "Young Detective Team" and others encrypted the data. After going back and forth, Yan Kai and the others entered the game. However, Lala, who was most interested in the game, missed the opportunity to enter the game - "Noah's Ark" was now on guard. If another unfamiliar data enters the game, it will definitely find out immediately. Then Lala will be trapped in the game. Although she is natural, she is not stupid, so she will not do such stupid things.
"Meet us?"
Ling said doubtfully.
"Yes." Eve nodded, "Your data is linked to my game ID. Although Sister Lala has encrypted your data, 'Noah's Ark' will not be able to detect you for a while. If you If you do anything that will affect the progress of the game, your existence will still be exposed, so when you take any action, I must be by your side to cover it for you."
"So that's it!"
Ling hadn't spoken yet, but Sanxiao, who had no idea what Eve was talking about, nodded heavily with an "I see" expression on his face.
"..."
Do you really understand?
Eve was confused.
"In short, you can't leave Sister Eve, otherwise it may cause unknown consequences, right?"
Ling made the simplest summary.
Eve nodded, well, is this a sign of understanding what she said?
"Then what do we do next?"
Ayumi Yoshida asked.
"Since Sister Xiaolan and Conan have gone to find Mr. Holmes, let's also go to find Mr. Holmes. I know Mr. Holmes's address, which is Room B, No. 221 Baker Street!"
Tsuburaya Mitsuhiko said very excitedly.
As the leader of the detective world, Sherlock Holmes is a god-like existence to any detective fan. He is also the spiritual mentor of the "Young Detective Team". Even if he is just a virtual character in the game world, the thought of being able to interact with his idol Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya was also a little excited when they met.
"Are you looking for Mr. Holmes? Unfortunately, Mr. Holmes and Mr. Watson went out to handle a case. They went to a country village called Dartmoor. They are not at home now!"
A child wearing tattered clothes appeared in front of the "Young Detective Team" and others at some point, pressed down his peaked cap and said.
"Who are you?"
Ling looked warily at the child in the peaked hat who suddenly appeared.
"Me?" The kid in the peaked hat smiled, and then introduced himself, "My name is Wiggins, and I am a member of the 'Baker Street Detective Team' who helps Mr. Holmes collect intelligence. What about you? I appear on the street in the middle of the night. This This is not the behavior a good boy should do!”
"Wiggins?" Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya, who knows "Sherlock Holmes" best among the "Young Detective Team", widened his eyes and asked, "Is this the Wiggins who is the leader of the 'Baker Street Detective Squad'?"
"Misuhiko, what are 'Baker Street Detective Squad' and Wiggins?"
Moto Kojima asked Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya with his fingers in his mouth. Looking at his expression, he was really afraid that he would ask "can I eat it" next?
It was late at night and he started to feel hungry.
"The 'Baker Street Detective Team' are the street children hired by Mr. Holmes. They specialize in sneaking into places that adults cannot enter to collect information for Mr. Holmes. They are a group of brave children, and they can also be regarded as the predecessors of our 'Young Detective Team'. Wiggins is the leader of the 'Baker Street Detective Squad'!"
Tsuburaya Mitsuhiko is a treasure of many families.
"Hey, hey, there's no good in praising me like this!"
Wiggins raised his chin, grinning almost to his ears.
"Mr. Holmes is not here, so Senior Wiggins, please help us!"
Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya took Wiggins' hand.
"I'm here to help you? Help for what?"
Wiggins wondered.
"Of course, to catch 'Jack the Ripper', the devil who disturbs the public order in London!"
Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya said very seriously.
"'Jack the Ripper'?" Wiggins frowned, "Hey, that is something that even Mr. Holmes finds difficult. Are you going to catch 'Jack the Ripper'? This is too dangerous!"
"But if we don't catch Jack the Ripper, this game...ah!"
Before Tsuburaya Mitsuhiko finished speaking, a foot stepped on his instep, causing him to cry out in pain.
"So what if it's dangerous!" Ling stood up and looked at Wiggins angrily and said, "Now, in some corner that we don't know, there may be people whose lives are being harvested by 'Jack the Ripper'. Those The stupid police couldn't catch 'Jack the Ripper', but can we just sit back and watch those women being killed and turn a deaf ear? I know, do you think those who died were all prostitutes, dirty and despicable women, so they were disemboweled? , it doesn’t matter even if you are brutally killed?”
"No, no, I don't think so..."
Wiggins was stunned by Ling's words, took a step back and hesitated.
"Then what are you still doing? Tell us the information about 'Jack the Ripper'. Aren't you just gathering information about 'Jack the Ripper' by staying up late at night and wandering the streets?"
Ling continued.
"How did you know?"
Wiggins was shocked and said, as if Ling had discovered some great secret.
I lied to you!
Ling thought, but she said: "You don't have to worry about how I know, I'm just asking you if you are willing to help us put an end to the evil of 'Jack the Ripper'!"
Ling is only seven years old now, and her height and body shape are quite different from those of Wiggins, who is about ten years old. But now in terms of aura, Wiggins is more than a head shorter than Ling.
"Okay, okay, I promise you!"
Wiggins was helpless by Ling's words, so he had no choice but to agree.
"Well, that's pretty much it!"
Ling nodded slightly, then put one hand behind her back and made a scissor gesture to the members of the "Young Detective Team" behind her.
As expected of the leader!
The three little ones from the "Young Detective Team" couldn't help but secretly applaud.
