"Mr. Holmes is not at home?"
At the same time that Ling and his party met Wiggins, Conan and Mao Lilan finally arrived at Room B, 221 Baker Street, but to Conan's disappointment, Holmes was not at home.
"Yes, Mr. Holmes and Mr. Watson went out to handle a case together. They seemed to have gone to a country village called Dartmoor. They are not at home now."
At the door of Room B, No. 221 Baker Street, a middle-aged woman dressed as a servant answered.
Conan's heart moved, Dartmoor, isn't this the village where the "Hound of the Baskervilles" incident occurred? In other words, Holmes and Watson have really left London?
According to Conan's understanding of his father, since he was responsible for the script creation of "London in the Old Era", the main plot line must be that the game experiencer collaborates with Sherlock Holmes to search for clues, and after layers of reasoning, finally determine the true identity of "Jack the Ripper" identity and arrest him to achieve the customs clearance conditions. Otherwise, how could a few children and unfamiliar people have caught a serial killer that even the London police were helpless.
But now, Holmes and Watson, who are the main force in solving the case, are no longer there, and the difficulty of the game has suddenly risen to hell level. What's going on? Wasn't this game intended to be completed from the beginning?
Just when Conan was complaining in his heart, the middle-aged woman suddenly said to him and Mao Lilan very enthusiastically: "Ah, it's you! You are the children who helped Mr. Holmes solve the case two weeks ago! You helped Holmes Sir, you are very busy, come on, come in quickly, I will pour you some hot milk tea for you to drink!"
"ah?"
The sudden change of attitude of the middle-aged woman made Conan stunned for a moment, and then he quickly understood that he was being regarded as a member of the "Baker Street Detective Squad".
Thinking of this, Conan breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, it was not a blank slate. With the identity of "Baker Street Detective Team", it would be much easier for him to do things, but...
Conan secretly glanced at Mao Lilan behind him.
Forget it, even Mao Lilan, a sixteen-year-old oriental woman, can be regarded as a member of the "Baker Street Detective Squad". It seems that although everything in this game looks so real, it is still a game after all. !
Later, the middle-aged woman brought Conan and Mao Lilan to Holmes's study, and this move made Conan even more sure of one thing, that is, this game is not impossible to pass.
No servant would bring outsiders to the master's study without the master's permission, but the middle-aged woman did this. This is equivalent to telling Conan that there are clues here, hurry up and find them!
Conan immediately became eager to take action.
In the past, even if someone stopped him, he would still have to search for clues at the crime scene, not to mention that this was clearly the place for him to look for clues. Conan's "soul of detective" was completely on fire.
In particular, the study room is decorated exactly as described in the "Sherlock Holmes" novels, which makes possible "Sherlock Holmes fans" also burn.
He must find clues here to find happiness!
"Ah! Conan, look, look at this photo!"
Mao Lilan's voice brought Conan back to his senses, and he couldn't help but look at the photo frame that Mao Lilan pointed to.
There are two men in the photo, the one on the left is confident and the one on the right is kind and kind. Although one looks much younger and the other has hair, no matter how you look at these two men, they are still your father and Dr. Ari!
Appearing in Holmes's study, it goes without saying that the people in this photo must be Holmes and Watson. It must be his father, Kudo Yusaku, who used his position as a game script writer to deliberately set the appearance of the two to look like him. And the appearance of Dr. Agasa.
Hey, hey, hey, is it really okay to bring in private goods like this...
Conan couldn't laugh or cry.
"Aren't these Uncle Yusaku and Dr. Agasa? Although they look much younger and Dr. Agasa still has hair, it's definitely them!"
Mao Lilan had a surprised smile on her face.
Seeing familiar faces in this unfamiliar game put her at ease slightly.
"Xiaolan...sister, don't worry about this for now. Let's look for clues about 'Jack the Ripper'! This is Holmes' study. There must be investigation notes and clues about 'Jack the Ripper'."
Conan to Mori Lando.
Although the two of them were alone now, he knew that their every move was probably being broadcast live to the people at the press conference on a big screen, so they still had to be careful not to expose any flaws.
"Okay, Conan."
Mao Lilan nodded, and then searched for various notes in the study.
It is magical to say that all the books and notes in the study are obviously in English, but as long as Mao Lilan focuses on these books and notes, they suddenly turn into Japanese.
"It's incredible!"
Mao Lilan couldn't help but sigh.
Conan also noticed this and said calmly while looking for clues about "Jack the Ripper": "After all, most of the people playing this game are children, and only a small part of them are proficient in English, so the game is designed to allow us to understand These notes were specially converted into Japanese."
"Um."
Mao Lilan nodded, and then continued to look for the investigation notes of "Jack the Ripper" - now is not the time to care about these details. The outcome of this game is related to forty-nine lives, most of which are still seven or eight years old. Children, for the lives of these children, herself and her important people, Mao Lilan must win the game no matter what.
One person, even if only one person can pass the game alive, this is our victory!
Mao Lilan couldn't help but cast her sights on Conan.
If anyone can pass this game in the end, she believes that person must be Shinichi, because Shinichi is her Sherlock Holmes!
…………………………
"Professor Moriarty?" Ling frowned slightly after hearing the name, and then looked at Wiggins, "Are you sure 'Jack the Ripper' is related to Professor Moriarty? He is not the controller of the entire underground world in London. What? How could you be related to a coward who specializes in killing prostitutes?"
Professor Moriarty is the final boss in the "Sherlock Holmes" series. Sherlock Holmes calls him "the Napoleon of crime" and describes him as "like a spider in a web, and no trace of his influence can escape his eyes." , he created a huge criminal empire in Britain. His underworld network spread all over Europe and was extremely influential. Almost half of the cases in London were related to him, but every time he committed a crime, he could not leave any clues. He destroys all evidence without anyone noticing, escapes cleanly, and never fails. He is the "Emperor of Shadows" in the London underworld.
Although "Jack the Ripper" is now causing panic in London, compared with Professor Moriarty, it pales into insignificance and is completely unworthy of the stage.
"Cowardly, cowardly people..."
Wiggins swallowed his saliva after hearing Ling's words. The horrific serial murderer who put the whole of London into panic actually became a "coward" in Ling's mouth?
Ling said coldly: "Isn't it? He only dares to attack single women. How cruel his methods are, how despicable his heart is! Whenever he kills an adult male, I will look down upon him, but he is just a If you attack those women at the bottom of society who have been tortured by this ugly world and find it extremely difficult to survive, what do you think of him if he is not a coward?"
"..."
Wiggins was silent for a while, and finally nodded silently.
The leader is very good at boxing!
The three members of the "Young Detective Corps" couldn't help but secretly applaud again when Wiggins couldn't help but agree with what Ling said.
"Okay, let's just say 'Jack the Ripper' is a coward..." Wiggins felt that he couldn't let Ling talk anymore. If he continued, he didn't know which ditch he would be taken to. He said to Ling, "In short, according to my investigations over the past few days, 'Jack the Ripper' should indeed have something to do with Professor Moriarty. I am not sure if he is Professor Moriarty's subordinate, but at least I am sure that Moriarty's tutor must be Know the true identity of 'Jack the Ripper'."
"Then are we going to find Professor Moriarty?"
Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya asked.
Wiggins shook his head: "Professor Moriarty's whereabouts are mysterious and beyond my control as a child, but I know that Colonel Moran must know Professor Moriarty's whereabouts, so we can try to go Find Colonel Moran and look for clues about Professor Moriarty from Colonel Moran."
"Colonel Moran... I remember he is the second most dangerous person in London, and he is also Professor Moriarty's confidant. Would such a dangerous person like him meet children like us?"
Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya scratched his head and said.
"Of course it's impossible, so we need to sneak into the investigation!" Wiggins smiled proudly, "Sneak into various places to investigate. This is our 'Baker Street Detective Team'!"
"You mean, sneak into Colonel Moran's territory?"
Ling asked.
"Yes, I know, Colonel Moran usually is at the bridge club in the city center, and he must be there now!"
Wiggins said to Ling.
"Are you sure? We don't have any time to waste."
Ling looked at Wiggins suspiciously.
"Yes, I'm sure!"
Wiggins was absolutely sure.
Wherever Colonel Moran was before, he was at the Cards Club now, he said.
"Okay, let me believe you for once." Ling nodded slightly, and then said to Wiggins, "We don't know where the chess and card club is, so you can lead the way!"
"OK!"
With that said, Wiggins happily walked ahead to lead the way for Ling and the others.
"Lucky!"
The three young detectives jumped up happily. They were still at a loss as to what to do next. They didn't expect that there would be a guide now. It seemed that it would be too easy to clear the level. They could already imagine the game. After clearing the level, those children who had previously been too high-minded will worship them as heroes, and their parents will be grateful to them. It is simply a trivial matter to reach the top of life!
Behind the three little ones, Hui Yuan Ai was not so optimistic. She quietly whispered to Ling: "Ling, this Wiggins is very suspicious."
Whether it was his appearance or the sudden reminder he gave them, it all seemed too weird. Haiyuan Ai, a person with such a serious mental illness, would certainly not trust Wiggins easily.
"I know." Ling also whispered, "But now we have no choice but to take it one step at a time. I don't know what his purpose is, but since he wants to gain our trust, he must lose his Give us some bait, won’t you?”
Sugar-coated cannonballs, sugar-coated cannonballs, she has always only eaten the icing and shot back the cannonballs, now let's see who is better!
Haibara Ai felt relieved when he saw that Ling did not trust Wiggins and was even using him.
Although her real age is eighteen years old, which is one round older than Ling, Haiyuan Ai does not think that she is better than Ling in playing tricks. This little girl seems to be a born master at playing with people's hearts. It can make a group of adults play around.
Thinking of this, Haiyuan Ai suddenly felt pity for Wiggins.
Led by Wiggins, the group soon arrived at the bridge club.
The so-called bridge club is actually a combination of bars and casinos. A group of people gather together in small groups, either drinking or playing cards. It has a very adult atmosphere.
Wiggins did not take the "Young Detective Group" people through the front door, but took them to the back door - the front door was guarded, and unless the guard was crazy, there was no way he would let these children in.
"I'll go in first to check the situation. You guys wait outside."
Eve, who had been silent all this time, said at this time.
As the "big sister", of course she can only stand up at this time.
"It's too dangerous for you to be alone. How about I come with you? I have rich experience in this area."
Wiggins pressed his peaked cap and said to Eve.
"No, I'm fine by myself."
Eve shook her head.
She had also heard the conversation between Ling and Haihara Ai just now. She knew that Wiggins was weird, but she didn't dare to let him follow her.
If you go in alone, what else am I going to do?
Wiggins wanted to talk again, but Ling suddenly said: "Let Sister Eve go first, and we will go in together after she finds out the situation."
Wiggins was a little afraid of Ling. Every time he said something, Ling would refute him righteously. He couldn't speak to this clever little girl, so he had to give in first.
Forget it, let her go in. They are all a bunch of brats anyway. They can really keep an eye on me. I will get rid of a few of them in a while, and then sneak in quietly... to cause trouble!
Wiggins snickered secretly.
"I'm going!"
After saying this, Eve opened the back door of the bridge club and walked in, leaving the "Young Detective Team" and Wiggins outside.
"ah……"
"Why are you guys here?"
Just when Wiggins wanted to use urine to escape, Conan and Mao Lilan, who had collected clues at Holmes' home, also arrived at the bridge club. Their ideas coincided with Wiggins's, and they both wanted to sneak into the bridge club and hook up. Colonel Moran's line to contact Professor Moriarty.
"Conan!"
When Ayumi Yoshida saw that Conan was here, she was overjoyed.
Conan was not happy to see Yoshida Ayumi and the others, there was even a look of horror on his face.
This is a deadly game, how did they sneak in?
"How did you get in?"
Conan asked hurriedly.
Although there is an empty game warehouse outside the game, it is impossible for five people to fit into one game warehouse, so Yoshida Ayumi and the others entered the game through other methods?
Could it be that Schindler Company found a way to break through the blockade of "Noah's Ark"?
Conan said happily.
"Doraemon helped us get in!"
Moto Kojima answered happily.
"Doraemon?"
Conan was stunned for a moment.
God damn Doraemon!
