The world is restarting

"Mary Gray and Lisa Stocker were both victims of the disappearances of teenage girls surrounding the theater, and they were both seen 'voluntarily' leaving with a man on the night of their disappearance. What a coincidence, the two There must be something wrong with his 'elopement'."

In the inner field of the opera house, Chu Xingxiushu and the others stared at the paper crane in front of them, watching it make Conan's voice dully.

"I asked people who worked with Mary in the theater, and the comments I got about her were 'hardworking, well-behaved, and easy-going'. People with this personality are less likely to make sudden decisions to elope with their lovers, and with her People who knew her well said that she hadn’t noticed that she was getting close to any man. The same is true for Lisa Stocker, she also works in this theater, and she also has no candidates or reasons to elope.”

A detective was reasoning very seriously, but the attention of the others listening to him drifted subtly elsewhere.

Chu Xingxiushu: "...it's really useful."

Jiang Shouhuang: "...that's too powerful."

Tsunayoshi Sawada: "Ah, so can Conan hear us talking here?"

Sawada Ya: "I can hear you."

"I can indeed hear you." The person over there stopped helplessly, "I said, are you really listening to me?"

"Oh, yes," Chu Xingxiushu finally felt that he was being rude, "I heard you said it and went to investigate the victim."

Jiang Shouhuang also came back to his senses immediately, "Yes... wait, when did you check?"

He looked at the silver-haired loli who took out the paper crane that could replace the mobile phone communication, and thought about Edogawa who seemed to have cleared up all the cases at the paper crane, and his face was full of confusion.

Everyone plays the same game, why do you show so much more than me?

"During the day, I came to the theater in the afternoon." Conan sighed, his tone was flat, as if this was just a basic operation, "I also investigated the other four victims, and they were all in similar situations. What they have in common is It’s all about the theater, so I think Mary’s parents are justified in being skeptical about the theater.”

Jiang Shouhuang continued to be confused, "Is that so? Wait, didn't we come to arrest Jack? Why did we get involved in this case again?"

"Because based on these clues, I suspect that there is someone on the same level as Jack the Ripper in this theater." There were footsteps coming down the stairs from the other end, and the detective student seemed to turn into a corridor, "Get ready. "

Jiang Shouhuang: "?!" No, what are you getting ready for?

However, he seemed to be the only one who was confused, and the expressions of the others subconsciously became serious. Sawada Ya nodded silently, and looked back at the glass window next to him. The moonlight falling on the window sill was not as clear and bright as it used to be. Weird blood color.

So it's only natural that something will happen tonight.

Little Lolita sighed, after all, even the moonlight had the air of causing trouble.

Because they failed to persuade Ms. Irene to cancel the performance just now, they discussed for a while and then split into two groups. Conan went to the backstage to continue to search for clues to the case and try to find Jack the Ripper who had sneaked in. Sawada Ya and the others It is to return to the auditorium, wait for the situation to happen and then adapt to the situation.Their location is not far from the stage, and they can go up to support at any time if any accident occurs.

On the left of Sawada Ya is her elder brother, and on the right is Jiang Shouhuang who insists on sitting next to her.

I don't know if Zetian Loli's affinity for small animals has also spread to him. The little fat man squatting next to her is like a fat chick who has just found a home. Throwing all the panic to the back of my mind, I still have the mind to look left and right to see it strangely.

Victorian opera is indeed a rare spectacle for those who come from modern times.The dazzling top hats and gorgeous and colorful long skirts of the ladies around me are enough to make people dizzy, not to mention the antique theater itself, the air seems to be filled with the flashy and noisy atmosphere of that golden age.

Outside the game, the invited history professors were excitedly rushing in front of the screen.

"This clothing style, this architectural structure and the faces of people from different classes, there is no doubt that this is the Victorian era!"

"That's right, look at the opera house that the camera just scanned. The interior style is completely consistent with the mainstream British classical romanticism represented by the Greek Revival at that time. Due to the industrial revolution and the spread of democratic ideas in this period, the variation of architectural design trends has already It’s starting to rise. Look at this opera house, which is a prototype of modern architecture that sprouted after the application of new materials..."

This group of professors who specialize in Victorian history was almost incoherent with excitement, and the programmers next to them were taken aback by their popular science.

Looking at this scene thoughtfully, Kudo Yusaku asked the friend who came over, "Is the setting of the game background detailed to this extent?"

Tadabin Kenmura, the project leader of "Cocoon", smiled wryly, "In fact, although we did invite a famous professor of British history at the end of the [-]th century as a consultant when doing the background, but frankly speaking, as it is now Couldn't find any problems...it's pretty much impossible."

At the same time, their eyes turned to the professors who were excitedly researching in front of the screen. Some of them even took out their notebooks and wrote something on it. The expressions on the faces of this group of scholars who have studied Victorian history for half their lives seemed to be watching When the dream age sleeping in history was unveiled, it truly appeared in front of their eyes.

To be honest, this is actually not good news.

The more realistic these details are in the game, the more the situation is out of control.

The opera house in the game.

Sawada Ya whispered to his brother, "Brother was looking for someone just now?"

"Oh, yes, I should like to see where Miss Mary's parents are sitting."

Tsunayoshi Sawada looked back in a bit of trouble, "But there are too many people, I really can't find their place."

Conan didn't seem too busy, so he interjected, "For the couple, you can look at the corner, this kind of popular performance, even if they buy tickets, they can't grab a seat with a good view .”

"Brother Gang Ji, why are you looking for them?" Jiang Shouhuang asked strangely from the side.

"Well... isn't it very likely that something will happen in a while?" Tsunayoshi Zetian glanced back and lowered his voice, "Even if an accident happened, the couple would definitely not run away. I always feel that this is very dangerous, So I want to get the location first, and take care of it a little bit if something happens."

Jiang Shouhuang nodded half-understanding, "But, aren't they NPCs?"

"Eh? Er..." Tsunayoshi Sawada was stunned when he heard the words.

"Really... Brother Tsuna, you don't seem to have thought about this at all."

Chu Xingxiushu said helplessly, "Although the people we meet in this world can talk and communicate, and they each have their own stories, in essence they are still set data."

"Yes, is that so?"

Sawada Tsunayoshi lowered his head and looked at his sister in a daze, and Sawada Lolita also gave him a blank expression of "I don't know".

The two brothers and sisters were equally stunned, laughing at the people next to them.

"Tsunaji-go and Mi are gentle people, maybe that's why..."

As soon as Chu Xingxiushu's voice changed, his voice suddenly softened. The Zetian brothers and sisters turned their heads at the same time, only seeing his slightly lowered profile.

"Because of this, can even data be treated gently...but data is data, even if there is self-awareness and thinking ability, but the body and soul that are the basis of life do not exist, no matter how real it looks It's just a ghost wandering in the network, Brother Gangji, you guys...you should make a clear distinction."

The long eyelashes slightly concealed the young man's expression at this time, just looking at that calm face, it was completely impossible to guess what he was thinking, as if his heart and tone were equally unwavering at this time.

"That..." I don't know why looking at him like this, Sawada Tsunayoshi suddenly felt a little trembling in his heart, but he still managed to make a sound, "I think there is still a difference."

"Ok?"

"Things that really don't have a soul can't think at all, just like, uh, like a doll?" Tsunayoshi Sawada tried hard to organize the words, and didn't know how to express it, but his intuition told him that he should say that he must put it here. To convey one's own thoughts to someone, "But there is ego and feelings, and there is also a way of thinking as a human being, that is a 'human'. After all, people can't see such things as the soul..."

Eh, no, his sister seems to be able to see it?

He subconsciously went to look at his sister, and saw little loli resting her chin in one hand, looking at him, then at Chu Xing, and for some reason, she also glanced at Jiang Shou, and then sighed helplessly.

She had an expression of "Why do you adults always think so much", "The scope of life is not so narrow."

"?"

"Even stones, which are generally believed to have no thinking ability, can give birth to 'spirits'. That is to say, in the eyes of the world, even stones are a kind of 'life'. There is no life without a stone. Data doesn't have a soul, it's just the narrow thinking of some human beings."

"Narrow" Chu Xingxiushu and Jiang Shouhuang: "..."

"As long as you have self-awareness, you will be recognized by the world." Sawada Ya made a final decision, and affirmed her brother, "So brother can do according to his own ideas, there is no problem."

Sawada Tsunayoshi: "Uh, okay."

As a loli who is favored by the world, she inexplicably exuded an air of authority when explaining this question.Not only were Chu Xingxiushu and Jiang Shouhuang in the game suppressed in a daze, but there was also silence outside the game.

Prisoner Hayato pinched his chin thoughtfully, "Is that so? If I pick up a stone and go back, talking to it every day can hatch monsters?"

Others who heard him talking to himself: "..."

No, Miss Mi definitely didn't mean that!

At eight o'clock in the evening, the performance officially began, and the melodious music opened the curtain of the opera.

As expected, it was a popular performance that had been advertised in the newspapers a few weeks in advance. Irene Andora's singing voice was elegant and beautiful, and her singing skills were superb.

It's just that for those who don't understand opera at all and are not very interested in it, the time is more difficult.

After struggling through the first two scenes, Sawada Ya yawned silently, then shrank back into her brother's arms.

As a loli who listens to the flute sound of Heiankyo's "God of Gagaku" that can move evil spirits as a lullaby, she feels that she has done her best.

In terms of musical literacy, the Zetian brothers and sisters are obviously on par.

"Conan," Tsunayoshi Sawada tried hard to restrain the desire to yawn with his sister, and asked sullenly, "Did you find anything unusual?"

"Not yet, where are you?"

"We don't have any..."

Before he could finish his sentence, the roar of the explosion rang through the hall unexpectedly.

"Team leader, it's an emergency!"

The programmer sitting in front of the monitor suddenly jumped up from his seat. While sweating profusely, he tapped his fingers on the keyboard rapidly, and shots from several directions quickly appeared on the screen.

Most of the pictures are full of smoke and dust, accompanied by deafening explosions and screams one after another, the exquisitely carved beams are constantly breaking and falling, and the smashed bricks and stones seem to vibrate the camera.

Everyone looked up at the same time, and the elegant gentlemen and ladies in the theater were screaming and fleeing in embarrassment, and the scene was already in chaos.

At this time, the camera that was adjusted to the top of the stage suddenly captured that the ceiling above broke first, and the broken bricks and stones poured down, among which the piece that was heavy enough to send people to reincarnation seemed to be aimed at it. The people below fell down, and Irene Andora, who was standing in the middle of the stage, hadn't even recovered.

"Danger, danger!" Everyone watching was shocked at the same time.

At the very moment, a figure leaped up like lightning, dragged Irene and rolled aside, and with the sound of the wind, a large block of bricks and stones that fell suddenly almost brushed their shoulders and hit the stage. The wooden boards of the stage were too late to cry Huge potholes were torn open as soon as it was released.

Obviously, as long as you slow down for half a second, the person standing there just now will be smashed into the ground by the broken beam and the planks, and there is no possibility of survival.

Everyone in the monitoring room seemed to be watching a thrilling movie, their heartbeats rose to the top with their actions, and they were slightly relieved to see that the protagonists escaped unharmed.

"It's okay, okay, Zetian-kun caught up."

"This is too exciting, it will be too late after half a second..."

"This theater looks like it's going to collapse, so leave quickly... Hey, no, why didn't Zetian-kun leave, did something happen?"

At the same time, in the game, Chu Xingxiushu also shouted from the audience, "Brother Gangji, let's go, if we don't go to the theater, we will..."

"You take Miss Irene and Mi to go first."

The brown-haired boy interrupted him in an almost commanding tone.

Chu Xing was startled, only to realize that he had been looking at the direction behind the stage with his back turned to him.The explosion just now blasted out a big black hole. His eyes fell straight into the depths of the darkness, and his tone of voice was unusually dignified.

The surveillance personnel who were staring at the camera on Tsunayoshi Sawada's side froze suddenly.

"what is that?"

The sound of heavy footsteps step by step seemed to be stepping on people's tense nerves. Behind the smoke and dust, a slender figure dragged a corpse slowly out of the deepest darkness.

Everyone inside and outside the game heard a gloomy and morbid voice floating faintly from behind the stage as if coming from hell.

"Christina, my Christina...where are you going from me?"
