The Grammatical Investigator in Conan

"The Queen is waiting at Lou Sang."

"You must find the man who killed Franz"

Qin Zhibo responded: "I will try my best."

Under the leadership of Prince Albert, Qin Zhibo and Conan gradually approached the innermost door of the palace.

During the march, Qin Zhibo reminded Conan in a low voice.

"No matter what happens next, don't make any inappropriate noises."

Conan was a little puzzled. He was not a country boy who had never seen much of the world.

It's just meeting a character in the game, right?

Albert pushed the door sideways, respectfully and humbly like a servant, and led Qin Zhibo and Qin Zhibo into the dark room.

The creature behind the door is called "Victoria", which is a homophone for "victory".

The Dominator faction she belonged to defeated humans seven hundred years ago, but generously gave the losers the right to survive, so she has unparalleled glory and dignity.

She is also known as "Gloriana", which is a homophone for "brilliance".

As for the reason why she is called "Queen", it is just because humans cannot call her by her real name even though they have exhausted their language talents.

Two figures, one tall and one short, gradually walked into the dark room, and the two figures became more and more narrow under the influence of light.

What looms on that elegant carpet is not human.

She was huge, entrenched in the dark shadow like a mountain of flesh, motionless.

"Must - erase -"

The Queen is relatively unfamiliar with human speech, but she can still express herself clearly.

"Indeed, Your Majesty."

Qin Zhibo nodded humbly, then raised his head and looked directly at the location of the Queen's organ that made the sound.

That's what humans call the "head."

Among the red and white ceremonial robes, a pale mask covered it, with a face as stiff as the Queen in the playing cards.

This is the "Queen".

With Conan's height, if you want to admire the Queen's glory, you need to raise your head at a higher angle.

Conan raised his head as hard as he could before he could fully see the majestic body and pale mask.

Is this Queen Victoria?

Somewhat weird

This game is too abnormal!

Next, the Queen stretched out a slender green tentacle directly from under her gorgeous robe.

"Purpose - I know -"

"Before the funeral——"

Looking at this tentacle, Qin Zhibo was already mentally prepared and stepped forward calmly.

But when Conan saw the tentacle, he immediately broke through the defense.

Conan: w(Д)w

What a monster is this!

This is different from what was promised!

Will -10

Conan originally thought that he would see a noble and beautiful woman, wearing a pure white lace dress, bathing in the sunshine by the window, waiting for his audience.

Although there is no sunshine on the streets of London, there is only gray haze.

But no matter how bad it is, this game has to arrange for a normal person to be the queen, right?

Why is the queen holding out octopus tentacles?

Do you think these are octopus balls?

Conan tried his best to calm down and managed to fulfill the agreement with Qin Zhibo not to make inappropriate noises.

Even though he is rational, Conan still attributes all the irrationality to the game design.

In fact, it's a smart move.

Beside Conan, Qin Zhibo has slowly walked towards the "Queen".

The tentacle gently held Qin Zhibo's shoulder, as slender and gentle as a lover's palm.

At the moment of contact, Qin Zhibo felt unprecedented pain sweeping through his body.

And this pain only lasted for a short moment, and then comfort replaced the pain.

Under the caress of the tentacles, some more thoughts appeared in Qin Zhibo's brain.

Here are some fleeting thoughts.

They are the various places that the murdered Prince Franz visited during his stay in London.

There are liquor stores, opium dens, theaters, gambling dens, lunatic asylums, and concert halls.

In short, Prince Franz arranged his schedule to the fullest and did not waste any of his unimaginably long life.

The "Queen" and Prince Franz belong to the same ruler faction. They share the same mind, so they can know what each other is doing.

As for communicating with thoughts, this is just one of the many abilities of the "Dominator".

After obtaining the "Queen's" information, Qin Zhibo respectfully returned to Conan.

"Her Majesty, I believe that the assassins who killed Prince Franz are lurking in these places where the prince has been."

"We will investigate as quickly as possible."

"Yes, I understand."

"That's right, you said that"

After having physical contact with the "Queen", Qin Zhibo no longer needs to listen to the "Queen"'s voice with his own ears.

After another brief conversation, Qin Zhibo and Conan were finally able to come out of the door.

As soon as he went out, Conan couldn't help but ask Qin Zhibo.

"What's going on with that 'queen'?"

"Is that still human?"

Two almost identical questions in a row spoke of Conan's eagerness to resolve his inner doubts.

Qin Zhibo shook his head and said calmly: "This is different from the London you were familiar with a hundred years ago. This is the London in a certain novel."

"Here, humans are dominated and ruled by inhuman monsters. The 'Queen' and Prince Franz you just saw are this type of existence."

Conan's face was full of surprise, and he quickly asked: "How do you know so clearly? Do you..."

"Yes." Qin Zhibo nodded noncommittally, "Uncle, I have read that book~"

Conan: "." This guy did it again.

"Then do you know the plot behind it?" Conan asked again.

"Well, the Holmes you know well in this world is a believer in the theory of the restoration of all living beings."

"The theory of the restoration of all living beings?" Conan wondered in confusion.

Qin Zhibo walked down the stairs holding the luxurious handrail. "Believers of the 'reset theory of all living beings' do not believe that the arrival of the ruler is a good thing for mankind. They hope that the old social system can be restored and create an era of mankind's own."

"In our current parlance, they are a group of 'anarchists.'"

"Also called 'terrorists'."

Qin Zhibo's words were thought-provoking, causing Conan to fall into a long silence.

Holmes, who resists the rule of the inhuman ruler, sounds like he is a positive character.

In other words, in this world, Holmes helps humans, while Moriarty is the lackey of the Dominator.

At this moment, Conan felt that Sherlock Holmes in this world was very great.

What he was engaged in was not an act of justice to eradicate ordinary evil, but a great feat of saving the world from its rulers.

this.

"Don't think so much, Conan."

"Anyway, this is just a game, and our task is to pass it."

Maybe this game is too real, which makes Conan feel more unrealistic and unrealistic.

Qin Zhibo's words brought Conan back to reality in time. Discussing who and whose justice is not the key, passing the level is the goal.

Conan nodded steadily, "Then do you know where to find Holmes next?"

"If I remember correctly, it should be the theater."

Party venue.

Kudo Yusaku stood around the hall, looking around.

Since all the parents and children went to the "Cocoon" venue, there was plenty of room for Kudo Yusaku to solve the case.

Looking back on the process of this press conference, how to hold the murder weapon through the tight security links is the key to exploring how the murderer kills.

Everyone needs to pass through the metal detector before entering the venue.

In this case, the murderer could not have brought the murder weapon in with his own body.

Unless it’s something that was originally present at the press conference

Kudo Yusaku looked around and immediately saw the bronze statue of Battle Angel placed at the entrance of the venue.

Each of these five bronze statues holds objects in their hands, including a giant sword, a long sword, a sickle, a trident, and a dagger.

These weapons are all real and sharpened.

Water can carry a boat, but it can also overturn it.

These edged weapons not only ensure a sense of power, but also provide the possibility of murder.

The murderer can take the weapon from the statue when no one is prepared, and then put the weapon back after killing the person.

This also explains why the murderer did not leave the murder weapon at the scene after the murder, but took it out.

Kudo Yusaku looked up around the ceiling and discovered the gratifying surveillance cameras.

As long as there is a camera, everything will be much easier.

Kudo Yusaku immediately went to the security room and asked to see the video tapes before and after the crime.

After hearing about Kudo Yusaku's name, the security guard at the Mihua Municipal Building began to call for surveillance.

While waiting, Dr. Ali called.

"No! Yusaku!"

"All our games have been tampered with by Noah's Ark!"

"The number of eliminations is increasing rapidly!"

In the game control room, Dr. Ali quickly manipulated the keyboard.

On the huge computer screen, the player images of each game are called up.

In the Viking game, pirates played by several players are sailing on the endless ocean.

Suddenly, a shadow slowly rose up under the sea.

The shadow is getting bigger and bigger and more solid.

Until several towering octopus tentacles suddenly jumped out of the water with lightning speed, causing huge waves to rise on the sea that was extremely silent just a second ago.

Those terrifying octopus tentacles stayed in mid-air for a few seconds, then fell heavily and slammed into the Viking pirate warship.

In just an instant, the huge warship was smashed in half, and sawdust mixed with salty seawater flew across the screen.

This sudden change made the players and NPCs on the ship instantly frightened to the point of peeing.

They were defenseless, and their wails and cries filled the entire warship.

These octopus tentacles wrapped around the warship like a python, almost crushing it.

This shocking scene shocked Dr. Ali and others who were watching outside.

The huge shock made Officer Megure stutter, "What kind of monster is this?"

Next to him, Rensaburo Shiratori calmed down, with some cold sweat breaking out on his forehead, "Maybe it's the legendary 'Norwegian Kraken'"

"Norwegian Kraken?" Officer Megure turned to Dr. Agasa and asked, "Is this a setting that originally existed in the game?"

Officer Megure's suspicion was not unreasonable. After all, even an adult would feel palpitated when he saw this huge octopus monster, let alone a child.

This game should be at least 18+ banned.

"This shouldn't be the case." Dr. Ali, who didn't understand the principle, also shook his head, his face full of doubts.

While the adults were thinking, the Viking warship had been completely twisted by the powerful octopus tentacles, and was stuffed into the huge mouthparts like a piece of cake.

The mouth of the "Norwegian Kraken" is filled with tens of thousands of teeth arranged in a spiral shape, like eighteen levels of hell, completely crushing the hull.

Before the warship completely fell, some players wanted to jump into the water to escape.

But as soon as their bodies jumped into the water, the smaller octopus tentacles directly rolled up their bodies and stuffed them into the "spiral hell".

In the end, a mess was left on the sea, with broken planks and broken flags proving that there had once been a warship here.

No player who participated in the Viking game was spared and all were eliminated.

Just as the Vikings announced their annihilation, the Paris-Dakar cross-country race on the other side also came to an end.

In the endless desert arena, the roar of car engines and the bustle of excitement awakened the former owners of this land.

The sleeping snakes in the nameless city came out in force, attacking spectators and rally racers.

Although players drive off-road racing cars used in rallying, which have good horsepower, the snake people also have vehicles similar to "sand boats".

When the off-road vehicle driven by the player is overtaken by these snake-men's "sand boats", the game is almost declared over for players without the ability to resist head-on.

Then there is the ancient Roman arena game, which seems to be a competitive duel game, but a terrifying "strange" appears among the gladiators.

This "strange shape" is called "indescribable divine power" by the forbidden monks, and the gladiators who possess it will gain invincible power.

In fact, this "strange" is similar to a parasitic beast. After parasitizing humans, it will gradually eat the human brain.

When the "strange" swallows its host, it can become completely anthropomorphic and possess the terrifying ability to change its fighting form.

Even if the host is killed in the duel, the "Thing" can quietly parasitize the winner and continue to survive.

The most ideal situation in this game is that the gladiator played by the player finally has a decisive battle with the parasitic gladiator of the "Thing" and wins.

However, no player can survive until the last round, and the game is over.

The next game is Solomon's Treasure.

Solomon's treasure is the "Wisdom of Solomon", a crystal skull, which is said to contain all the wisdom of King Solomon.

However, when the player obtained the Crystal Skull under the guidance of Indiana Jones, the mission failed.

It turns out that the Crystal Skull is just an illusion, and the real treasure is the key to the temple where the Crystal Skull is hidden.

The temple key is called the "Silver Key" and is said to be able to open the door to "eternity" and gain infinite wisdom and power beyond time and space.

The blackened Indiana Jones could not resist the temptation of the "Silver Key" and opened the "Door of Truth", and all players were turned into powder in a golden light.

At this point, all players except "Old London" have been eliminated.
