A Detective: I Believe in Science

Chapter 191 Poor ratio, waste of time
Looking at the three sleepy-eyed people in front of him, Conan felt that the difficulty factor of this game had increased again. Noah was unwilling to go, Haibara had a sprained leg and could not go, and the number of team members dropped sharply to four.

When he walked out of the hostel and looked at Big Ben in the distance, Conan sighed in his heart. As expected, only the six of them survived the game so far, and the rest were eliminated.

Perhaps because of the setting of artificial intelligence, the arrest warrants for Conan and his party have been pasted on both sides of the street.

"Why is there no arrest warrant for brother Noah and Huiyuan, he is the murderer."

Seeing that there were only four of them on the wanted warrant, Yuan Tai was deeply puzzled. The principal criminal was not wanted, but their four accomplices were.

No one will be able to answer this question. Xiaolan and Conan have the same doubts. As for Zhuxing Hideki, as the embodiment of artificial intelligence, he naturally knows the reason, but he can't say it.

At this moment, a hangover sloppy passed by them, still muttering some strange words in his mouth.

"Be careful of Jack the Ripper. He is waiting for you on the road at night. If you don't want to die, what should you do? You have to be covered in blood."

This sentence made several people very puzzled. The information expressed in the other party's words was obviously related to Jack the Ripper, but they didn't know what it was useful for.

He wanted to open his mouth to ask clearly, but the other party didn't have the slightest intention to stop. He kept repeating this sentence, and gradually disappeared from everyone's sight.

"The newspaper is on sale! The newspaper is on sale! In the latest issue, Jack the Ripper committed crimes again."

Before Conan could think clearly about that strange sentence, children selling newspapers began to appear on the road. Conan raised his hand as a signal and shouted at the other party.

"I want one."

After the newsboy saw it, he took out a sheet from his pocket and handed it to Conan. After getting the newspaper, Conan hurriedly searched for the instructions issued by Professor Moriarty to Jack the Ripper.

"Go clean the stage of the Opera House tonight, M's message to J."

"This should be the professor's order, but there are so many opera houses in London, which one is the specific target?"

Hearing Mohohoshi Hideki's doubts, Conan continued to scroll down and saw another message at the end.

"A triumphant performance, the idol of the Watershaw royal opera, Irene Ann..."

Before everyone finished reading, the newspaper was taken away. When they looked up in doubt, they found that the newspaper boy was still standing there, glaring at them.

"What's the matter, is there anything else?"

"You haven't paid me yet."

"Oh, sorry, wait, I'll give it to you."

Conan hurriedly groped his body, and the expression on his face became more subtle as he touched it. He found a very serious problem.

no money...

He turned his head and asked the people behind him, but the result was the same, none of them had any money on them, and the scene was suddenly a little embarrassing.

"I'm sorry, this... We don't buy this newspaper, we don't have any money with us."

"Poor, waste of time, want to rub newspapers even if you don't have money."

The newspaper boy looked at the few people with disdain in his eyes, and he didn't buy the ink for a long time, delaying his own money.

Conan's face was a little shy, he forgot that he was in the game, he didn't have any money on him, and he forgot to ask Noah for some money before going out.

"What should we do now? We don't know who Professor Moriarty ordered to kill."

"No, I've seen it."

An angry expression appeared on Conan's face. The moment the newspaper was taken away just now, he had already seen the specific address and name clearly.

"Irene Andora, that's Jack the Ripper's target tonight."

"How could it be her?"

Xiaolan had obviously heard of this name before, with a look of surprise on her face, the identity of this person was a bit special.

"Who is she? Is she famous?"

"Irene Andora, it is said that she is the only woman Holmes loves deeply."

"Then if she is killed, wouldn't Holmes..."

Genta didn't finish the rest of the sentence, because the anger on Conan's face could no longer be concealed.

Xiaolan looked at Conan full of doubts. If Shinichi had this expression, she could understand it, but why did Conan do the same.

"Conan, what's wrong with you, why are you so angry?"

These words quickly stabilized Conan's emotions. He also saw the doubt in Xiaolan's eyes, and immediately realized that his gaffe just now made Xiaolan suspect, so he hurriedly opened his mouth to save him.

"Because Brother Xinyi used to tell me stories about Sherlock Holmes, so I also like Holmes very much. I just thought that Irene Andora might be killed, and I was a little angry."

"New one!"

Hearing these words, Xiaolan breathed a sigh of relief, what happened to her recently, she always recognized Conan as Shinichi.

Recalling Shinichi's character, Xiaolan nodded secretly. The reason why Conan looks so similar to Shinichi must be influenced by him.

……

As the evening gradually approached, Irene Andora's opera performance was very famous throughout London. Although it didn't start until eight o'clock, but just after seven o'clock, there were already many audiences around the opera house.

Conan went to check around the Whitechapel today, and found some results, but it was of little use in catching Jack the Ripper, so he could only watch tonight, which was their greatest chance.

At the entrance of the opera house, Noah and his party were walking inside. Conan, the leader, was still holding a bouquet of flowers in his hand. Whether he could meet Irene Andora depended on it.

As soon as they entered the backstage, they were stopped by the guards and told them that outsiders are not allowed to enter here, only staff can enter.

"We are friends of Irene Andora, and we want to come and encourage her."

"Then you wait here a moment, I'll go ask."

Now Conan was worried. He didn't expect the other party to be so cautious. Irene Andora didn't know them.

Noah stepped forward to stop the security guard, grabbed a few gold coins from his pocket and put them in the opponent's hand. The security guard's eyes suddenly turned into the shape of money, and he hurriedly stepped aside to let a few people in. Concrete room by Lynn Andora.

……

Before coming here, Conan had already made preparations. The plot of this game was designed by his father, and his father became Sherlock Holmes again. Not surprisingly, Irene Andora, the only woman Holmes loves deeply, should be...

"New mother?"

Xiaolan exclaimed, because the woman who walked out of Irene Andora's room told by the security was exactly the same as the new mother Yukiko Kudo.

"I knew it"

Conan was speechless, but he could understand that if his mother hadn't acted the role, his father would not necessarily be accused of it when his mother knew about it. Thinking of his mother's acting skills, Conan suddenly felt a layer of goosebumps.

"This lady is talking too much. I'm still single, let alone a child."

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I admitted the wrong person."

Xiaolan hastily bowed and apologized, she forgot that she was still in the game, and the appearance of the other party made her feel a little flustered, this is Xinyi's mother.

"Ms. Irene, we are sent by Sherlock Holmes. He hopes you can stop this discourse show, because Jack the Ripper has listed you as his target for tonight."

"Holmes!"

Irene Andora didn't care about the danger in Conan's mouth, but cared more about Holmes, a smile couldn't help showing on her face.
