The world is restarting

Everyone in the main control room heaved a sigh of relief at the moment when they saw the intact silver-haired little girl throwing herself into Sawada Tsunayoshi's arms.

It is no exaggeration to say that there is a feeling of saving a life.

The programmers can finally put their hearts back into their chests... Great, they won't be sacrificed to heaven by the big devil behind them.

The onlookers finally felt amazed.

"It actually came out, Conan-kun is really amazing."

"Although I knew he was very smart before, I never thought that... his IQ is too high."

Everyone was amazed.When I was so shocked before, I was probably so surprised that I almost doubted whether Edogawa Conan was a monster, but now there is a super genius Hiroki Sawada in front of him. The artificial intelligence Noah's Ark developed by him when he was 12 years old is just now. Let them all be at a loss, in contrast, Edogawa Conan's special doesn't seem too exaggerated.

Anyway, mortals can't understand the world of geniuses. The police officers are willing to bow down... After all, imagine that if any of them were thrown into this maze, they would probably have to be snatched away by the big sphinx cat. When dinner was served, it raised questions they couldn't answer a single one of.

At this time in the game, Conan was already asking for information from the little girl named Alice who suddenly appeared.The police officers outside also showed the attitude of handling serious cases, taking notes while listening.However, even after trying so hard, there are still some things that I can't understand.

For example...

"She said the shadows attacking them outside were goblins?"

A police officer was stunned holding a pen, "What does a goblin look like?"

Isn't the fairies in fairy tales gentle and beautiful?The kind that only lives in flowers and drinks dew, who kind of goblin looks like this and eats people?

"Let me explain this question."

While everyone was in a daze, the door of the main control room suddenly opened, and fresh air poured in from the aisle at the door, bringing in a gust of cool breeze.

The people in the room looked back, only to see a young man in military uniform and sword walking in straight.He has a demeanor as deep and upright as green pines and mountains, like a famous sword that has been handed down from generation to generation in a sheath, both luxurious and harsh, making people focus on him at the first glance, instead of ignoring what he just said It was not him, but another old man who came in with him.

"Office Chief."

The scepter4 who stayed quietly at the side immediately stood up straight when they saw the person coming, and bent over to salute.

The head of scepter4, His Excellency the Blue King, who was present in person, waved his hand to signal them to get up, and then calmly introduced to everyone, "This is the head of the Tsuchimikado family. He just came from Kyoto."

After the introduction, he didn't intend to exchange a few words of greeting, and said vigorously, "Your Excellency Tsuchimikado, what did you just say, please continue."

Tsuchimikado Motoya nodded, his eyes fell to the screen, and he was obviously slightly relieved when he saw the little girl with long silver hair standing on the side.

"On the way here, Fushimi-kun has already sent me all the previous videos, and I already have some understanding of the current situation."

After confirming that His Royal Highness is in good condition, Tsuchimikado Motoya turned his focus back to the previous topic, "The black shadows that attacked His Highness Sawada in the thick fog before, if I'm not mistaken, they are indeed elves, or their The correct name is 'blackdog'."

"There is a legend in Britain that if the dead cannot go to heaven and hell, they will turn into undead or goblins and continue to wander in this world. In the windy and thunderous weather, an army of undead will appear and sweep across the city and the wilderness. It is the 'wildhunt' led by King Arthur, and King Arthur is His Majesty the King who rules over all ghosts and goblins."

The police officers in the room looked at each other, thinking of the thunder at the beginning of the game.

One of them muttered softly, "It can't be King Arthur who attacked the children?"

In the land of Britain, facing a boss who is really King Arthur - what kind of death script is this?It's a ghost to win, right?

Fortunately, Tsuchimikado Motoya quickly denied their speculation, "Probably not, although the owner of the black dog is His Royal Highness King Arthur, but if he really appears in this script, with the demeanor of the legendary king It will never be difficult for children. So this should be just a private action of the fairies and undead out of hatred for the living."

Just at this time, the little girl named Alice in the game also said the same thing to Conan, confirming that the black dogs attacked them spontaneously, and there was no one behind them.

Conan: "So what's going on in London? Why is there no one on the street?"

Alice: "Because you have entered the barrier between Alice and Jack. The barrier between Alice and Jack is connected to the underworld, so you will meet the goblin."

Conan was taken aback, "When... wait, was it when we met Jack the Ripper?"

He finally recalled that when they first logged into the game, there were indeed voices in the distance, and the fog on the street was not as thick as it was later.Combined with what Sawada Ya said before, the others were "thrown out", which means that only him, Sawada Ya, Sawada Tsunayoshi, Chu Xingxiu, and...

Conan Edogawa was stunned suddenly, and turned his head abruptly, "Where's Akira Eshou?"

The others were all taken aback.

It was as if the memory in their minds had been artificially blocked. Before Conan mentioned this incident, everyone did not remember that there was another person with them.After the black dog appeared, the little fat man Jiang Shouhuang ran away with them, and then they seemed to have forgotten his existence as a matter of course until now.

Zetian Tsunayoshi searched hard in his mind for a long time, and finally found the message that he almost threw into the trash can from a certain corner. He was stunned for a moment, then looked down at his sister, "Mi-chan, you don't Do you remember?"

Little Lolita shook her head blankly.

Yes, she didn't even remember.

After looking at a certain loli for confirmation, Conan was silent, "One more thing, we met Jack the Ripper, but do you remember whether he is male or female and what he looks like? "

"..."

Several people froze again.

They searched hard in memory for a long time, and finally found that... they didn't remember at all.

outside the game.

Reborn, who was on the sidelines, asked coldly, "Does anyone remember what Jack the Ripper looked like?"

Everyone in the monitoring room stared at him blankly, as if he was telling a ghost story.

"Jack the Ripper isn't... eh? Eh?!"

Then everyone was shocked to find that they had really hit a ghost, and it was a collective one. They looked at each other and realized that none of the people present really remembered what Jack the Ripper looked like.

Fushimi, who was sitting in front of the computer, frowned, quickly tapped his fingers on the keyboard, and called up a video.

A few people with quick brains reacted immediately and looked at the computer in front of him.

What was called out was the part where Jack the Ripper appeared. When they saw the petite figure in the picture, everyone finally realized it and remembered it again.

"That's right, it's her!"

But why didn't they remember it at all just now?

"Mr. Reborn." Tsuchimikado Motoya said solemnly looking at the screen, "Your suspicion is not wrong, this is indeed no longer a simple game."

No matter how powerful Noah's Ark is on the Internet, it is impossible to affect people outside the game.

Even the consciousness of these bystanders has been blinded just now, and there must be supernatural power involved in this.

in-game.

Alice was taken aback after listening to Conan's words, "Do you want to stop Jack?"

Edogawa Conan: "Yes."

They just had a discussion. The game is obviously messed up here. They don't know how to pass the level now. Without other information, let's move forward according to the main line given by Noah. .

Alice thought about it seriously, "You can't beat Jack."

Conan: "So what I want to ask is, besides confronting the enemy head-on, is there any other way?"

"Well, I think about it..."

Alice seriously thought about it, "Jack has always wanted to find her mother. If you can help her find her mother, maybe she won't continue to kill people."

"Jack the Ripper killed to find his mother?"

Several people looked at each other in blank dismay upon hearing the words, feeling a little unbelievable.

The legendary bloody and terrifying killer suddenly jumped to the fairy tale about the little tadpole looking for his mother... No matter how you think about it, why is there something wrong with this style of painting?

"No, it's not impossible." Conan said suddenly, holding his chin, "All the victims under Jack the Ripper were women, and her behavior of cutting their bodies open with a knife is also like..."

Chu Xingxiushu: "...It seems like you want to go back to your mother's womb?"

Kokichi Sawada:"……"

He was made to stand on end by this bloody cock, and subconsciously hugged his sister next to him.

Little Loli came back to her senses, raised her small hand and touched her brother's hairy head, "Don't be afraid, Ni-chan."

Tsunayoshi Sawada: "Oh"

Then he hugged his sister even tighter.

"All in all," Conan thought for a moment, sorting out the cause and effect, "We fell into the underworld after meeting Jack the Ripper. Afterwards, we don't remember Jack's information. We can infer that this may be her own ability, or it may be There are other rules in this place. If you want to stop Jack from continuing to kill people, you must help her find her mother... But no matter what, the information we need will definitely not be found in the underworld."

After speaking, he looked up, "Sorry, can you send us back to the real London?"

Alice seemed a little unreasonable when she directly took Sawada Ya away, but after announcing that they had won, they followed the rules of the game and would answer any questions. At this time, she nodded obediently in the face of Conan's additional request .

"Yes." She pointed to the path they came from, "I opened the exit on the opposite side, go from there, and you can go out through the forest."

It's good to be able to go back, Conan heaved a sigh of relief, "Thank you."

Alice is like an NPC who specially appeared to provide them with clues. After asking for the information they need, the group is ready to leave.

Sawada Ya stood at the intersection and looked behind her.

Alice was holding the fairy tale book and was standing there watching them.

Behind her is a dense and lonely forest. The refreshments carefully prepared by the owner on the tea table set off the empty long table, a kind of loneliness engraved into the bone marrow, the gloomy sky above the head is pressed down, and the gloomy color seems to be Wrap her whole body in it.

Sawada Ya and her stared at each other for a while.

"Will you come again?" Alice whispered. "If I've been waiting here for you, will you come to see me again?"

Sawada Ya blinked and said strangely, "Why are you waiting for me?"

"Doesn't Alice already know my name? You can come to me directly when you want to play with me."

Alice seemed to be stunned, "...Huh?"

"If you want to see someone, don't just wait here. Missing can't be conveyed." Little Loli tilted her head and gave her a bright smile, which seemed to brighten the gloomy sky "You have to take the initiative to come out, whether you come to me or to someone else."

"In this way, you can meet the people you want to see and make new friends along the way."
