The Grammatical Investigator in Conan

Chapter 788 Greetings from afar

As the crushed Jack the Ripper stood up one by one and copied more of the same kind, Qin Zhibo finally understood where the dozens of them came from.

How come you even learned Agent Smith’s moves?

And bullet time!

Is this a detective game or an MMO?

Do you still want to let people clear the level?

At this moment, Qin Zhibo wanted to reach out to the sky to see if he could be the savior.

However, this idea was suppressed only for a moment.

Because even "Neo" didn't defeat Smith head-on in the end.

Start Plan B!

Qin Zhibo took out two long-handled grenades from his crotch, opened the ring, and threw them towards his carriage.

The little flying stick is here!

One grenade was thrown crookedly, and the other grenade was thrown impartially through the skylight on the roof of the carriage shed.

Hitting the target, Qin Zhibo quickly pulled Mao Lilan next to him and put his head under the window sill.

Immediately afterwards, a somewhat muffled explosion sounded.

boom--

boom!

An even more shocking explosion sounded like thunder.

The carriage that Qin Zhibo was riding in exploded instantly and burst into flames.

A huge explosion hit the surrounding carriages, and also detonated the nitroglycerine bombs that had been planted in advance.

One carriage detonated another carriage, just like a mine array laid in advance, the explosion spread far away.

"Oh, my stars."

Lestrade, who was standing on the carriage, stared at the rapidly exploding light and heat, his body froze in place.

The other NPCs reacted and turned around to escape, but they couldn't outrun the speed of the bomb detonating.

It was unclear whether they were from humans or horses. Countless pieces of flesh and blood were scattered in the air like flowers from a goddess, and were instantly engulfed by the flames of the bomb.

The explosion lasted for almost a minute before it stopped. Qin Zhibo stretched his head to see.

The street was a sea of ​​fire, and as far as the eye could see, the ground was pitch black.

This is Qin Zhibo’s plan B.

In this era, there were nitroglycerin bombs, made of nitroglycerin + diatomaceous earth, which were powerful and safe.

Qin Zhibo snatched a large number of these bombs from gangsters, not only robbed the treasury and blew up local hotels, but also installed bombs on every carriage.

If War Stampede cannot kill Jack the Ripper, using bombs to deal with it is Plan B.

Moreover, some games are very BT, and being killed at the end of the game is considered a failure.

If the game requires waiting for the settlement time, using bombs to deal with thousands of pursuing soldiers is also a back-up plan.

Anyway, Qin Zhibo was very thoughtful.

Of course, Qin Zhibo would not want to use this plan if possible.

Now this game should be broadcast live, Qin Zhibo doesn't want outsiders to misunderstand that he is a devil.

People in this era are relatively conservative in their thinking.

If we put it in the future, what does it mean to kill thousands of "people" in the game?

Anyone who plays a game with a killing mechanism is not a "butcher"?

Conan and others in the building next door released their hands covering their ears, raised their feet and looked out the window. They also saw the sea of ​​​​fire on the street.

This sea of ​​​​fire does not keep burning, but the fire gradually becomes smaller until it goes out on its own.

Fortunately, the production of this game is not very detailed. The blasting of buildings has a system-set level of accuracy, and the explosion must be detonated inside the building.

Otherwise, an explosion of this magnitude could even collapse the building next to it.

Conan stretched out his head and scanned everything on the street in disbelief.

The streets that were crowded just now were almost empty now.

If it were the real world, these bombs wouldn't be enough to vaporize everything, at least there would be some debris left.

But this is a game world, and data will be deleted if it disappears.

It's the same principle as the corpses of characters in the game don't pile up like mountains.

After a moment, Conan, who had experienced a big scene after all, came to his senses and nervously scanned the street to see if there was any figure of Mao Lilan.

The streets were in chaos just now, and Conan couldn't see clearly where Mao Lilan and Qin Zhibo were going.

Is it already

Conan's heart tightened, and he hurried downstairs and shouted into the bare street.

"Xiaolan!"

"Xiaolan!"

Conan at this moment is just like those husbands who chased their wives thousands of miles ago, and his expression is even more real.

"Conan! I'm here!"

Mao Lilan, who was hiding in another building, ran out and met Conan and others.

"Sister Xiaolan!"

"Great! Everyone is okay!"

"The sound just now scared me to death, wuwu~~"

The three little ones also ran over, and they hugged each other and cried with joy.

Although the three Houlang people on one side were fighting each other the whole time, they hugged each other at this moment and started crying seriously for the rest of their lives.

For the rest of their lives, they jointly vowed never to play this kind of completely stealth virtual game again.

Football is 10,000 times more fun than this!

Playing other games costs money, but playing this game costs money!

Only Hideki Morohoshi did not hug a few people, but stood not far away with a knowing smile and looked at them quietly.

Conan turned to look at Hideki Morohoshi and Holmes next to him, nodded and smiled back.

In the end, Noah's Ark still allowed them to pass the level.

Conan didn't know the cause of the final explosion. He thought it was Noah's Ark's conscience that discovered it, so he directly set the explosion with his golden finger and forced physical clearance.

In this peaceful atmosphere, only Hui Yuan Ai seemed a little out of place.

She didn't look at everyone with an aunty smile, she wasn't even looking at the ground.

Lifting up his snow-white neck, Hui Yuan Ai stared blankly at the sky.

At some point, the moon in the sky had completely turned into a scarlet moon.

The real world, the cocoon game venue.

Kudo Yusaku held a flat-panel monitor and saw that everyone was safe and sound, and a relieved smile appeared on his face.

The whole process went smoothly, and I finally cleared the game.

Unexpectedly, Qin Zhibo actually thought of this method to pass the level when faced with Jack the Ripper, who had been so transformed by the devil.

As expected of you.

"This brother Qin is really a genius~"

Officer Memu was also happy that everyone successfully cleared the level, although it felt a little strange to see his own image of Chief Lestrade being destroyed in the explosion.

Suzuki Sonoko next to her also cried excitedly when she saw Mao Lilan still alive in the picture.

"Xiaolan, wuwuwu~"

At this moment, Chiba ran over to report the situation.

"Report, the test results are out!"

Seeing Chiba, Megure Police Department's face immediately became excited and asked quickly.

"What? Did you detect a blood reaction?"

Just when Memu was filled with joy and thought that the case was about to be solved, Qianye shook his head.

"No blood reaction was detected on the dagger."

"What! How is this possible?"

Megure Police Department exclaimed, and even Kudo Yusaku next to him looked sideways.

Mumu's original idea was to discover the blood reaction on the dagger, and then interrogate and investigate Chairman Sindora as a major suspect.

After all, this is the reasoning put forward by Kudo Yusaku. As long as the suspect is locked, evidence will be found sooner or later.

But now, Kudo Yusaku's reasoning does not hold up. The dagger in the hand of the bronze statue of Battle Angel is not a murder weapon.

"Brother Kudo, look at this"

When you are in doubt, call me brother.

Megure looked at Kudo Yusaku, who was holding his chin next to him, and wanted to ask what to do next.

The thoughts in Kudo Yusaku's mind were also spinning rapidly.

Besides the dagger in the hand of the bronze statue, where else could the murder weapon be?

First of all, it is impossible for guests to bring in murder weapons, and the metal detection gate is an insurmountable barrier.

Secondly, the police have searched all the places in Mihua City Hall that are accessible to the public, such as toilets, utility rooms, and even the toilet water tank. No daggers or anything like that were found.

Where else could one escape police inspection?

Kudo Yusaku was thinking hard, and suddenly his eyes lit up, and an idea came to his mind.

"Officer Megure, I think there is one place we haven't checked yet."

"That's also where you're most likely to temporarily evade police raids."

Mu Mu was a little confused. Although he was not good at reasoning, commanding people to search was his old skill.

It would be rude to say that you can't even do a search well.

"Is there such a place? Brother Kudo?"

Kudo Yusaku nodded seriously, "Yes, it's the game control room."

Mu Mu was startled for a moment, his mind recalled what had just happened, and his expression was immediately startled.

At the beginning, when the police received a call and found a message pointing to Jack the Ripper's death, they originally wanted to stop the game immediately.

In fact, Mu Mu also did this, but was sternly rejected by Chairman Sindora.

Later, Noah's Ark appeared out of nowhere, threatening the lives of 51 players, and it was even more impossible for the game control room to stop operating.

In other words, the game control room was never searched from beginning to end.

However, Mumu still didn't understand, and said doubtfully: "But according to the latest bill promulgated by Mihua City Hall, even staff must pass through the metal detection gate."

Megure's idea was simple. If the murderer was a staff member, they, like the guests, would not be able to bring in a metal weapon.

Yusaku Kudo calmly replied: "Although staff need to pass through the metal detection gate to enter, the instruments and equipment used are not required."

"As far as I know, all the supporting control facilities used at this game launch were packed and flown from the United States."

"Since these devices themselves are metal and involve Sindora's core business secrets, which are strictly protected by U.S. government laws, they have not undergone detailed customs inspection and are all shipped and installed directly."

"Just hide the murder weapon inside in advance."

Kudo Yusaku's words were like enlightenment, causing Shiratori Rensaburo next to him to suddenly wake up.

"If the murder weapon was hidden there, the murderer must also be someone in the control room."

"Then Dr. Ali"

Since Dr. Agasa wanted to take control of the situation, when Kudo Yusaku and the police came down to maintain order at the scene, they left Dr. Agasa above.

Officer Megure quickly became alert, "Are there any other of our people up there?"

Shiratori thought for a moment and replied: "It seems that Takagi is still there on standby."

This made Megure breathe a sigh of relief.

After all, the murderer is just one person. With the policeman Takagi here and other Sindora staff members, the murderer must not be able to cause any big trouble.

"Okay! Let's go to the control room now."

"Find the murder weapon, and then interrogate everyone one by one!"

Officer Megure gave the order and took all the police officers to the game control room.

Thinking of what Dr. Agasi had just asked to investigate alone, Kudo Yusaku felt a little uneasy, so he put away his tablet and hurriedly followed.

Game control room.

Dr. A Li looked nervously at the electronic screen, which was displaying the images of the game in real time.

Although the scene where Conan and Holmes were talking was disconnected before, the feedback from the game screen is now normal.

After seeing that everyone survived and that Jack the Ripper also died in a huge explosion that was absolutely impossible to survive, Dr. Ari breathed a sigh of relief.

"call--"

The problem of the game is solved, and the next thing is what Kudo Yusaku explained.

Dr. Ali previously detected that the game files contained a lot of unknown content compared to when the bug was fixed in the United States.

These unknown files are highly encrypted and cannot be easily cracked, and the contents inside cannot be seen.

However, you can rely on some technical means to trace its origin.

Dr. A Li turned to look at the electronic screen next to him. The progress bar on it had just reached 99%.

100%

Dr. Ali quickly turned to face the keyboard on this screen, and his nimble fingers were like a pianist at sea, operating quickly.

After popping up countless complicated pages, Dr. Ali finally found clues from a string of codes with green characters and black background.

"External data upload."

"Seat No. 4?"

Dr. Ali once learned about the control mechanism of the cocoon press conference at Sindora Headquarters in the United States.

There are a total of 6 control positions, from No. 1 to No. 6.

Among them, the position of Unit 1 is the chief, which is where Dr. Ali is currently.

In addition, there is a general supervisory position, called No. 0, which can monitor the actions of all positions.

This position has always been controlled by Tadaki Kashimura, the general manager of the Cocoon project.

However, because Kashimura Tadabin doesn’t like to think in crowded places and cannot concentrate, Kashimura usually works in other places and has flight seats elsewhere.

For example, this time, Tadabin Kashimura's camera was in the basement, far away from the main control room.

But the other six camera positions are all in the main control room.

Dr. Ali stood up, and counting from his left to the right, the fourth one on the huge fan-shaped console was the No. 4 machine.

"Four"

Dr. A Li walked to the front of Machine No. 4 and saw at a glance the complex operating table. The display lights of the external device slots were always on.

This means there is an external device plugged into it.

Dr. Ali looked down and saw that Operator No. 4 was sitting in the chair with his back to him, silent, and was about to ask.

"your."

Before he finished speaking, Dr. Ali suddenly felt a sharp pain in his neck.

Before he could react, a strong sense of drowsiness hit him instantly, and Dr. Ali's body immediately fell heavily to the ground.

Dr. A Li was not hit by an anesthesia needle, but Operator No. 5, who was standing behind, slapped him unconscious from behind.

Takagi Sheba, who was standing not far away, was stunned for a moment, his brain still hadn't figured out what was going on.

"Hello!"

Gao Mushe scolded sharply and was about to step forward.

But Operator No. 6 had already walked straight towards Takagi from the side. Taking advantage of his unpreparedness, he picked up the wine bottle on the coffee table behind him and shot Takagi directly in the head.

Pa——

The high-end champagne bottle exploded instantly. Sindora was originally planning to open it to celebrate after the press conference was successful.

Blood flowed from Takagi's forehead. Although he struggled for a second, his body still fell down and lost consciousness.

Chairman Sindora, who was sitting on the sofa in the back, looked at Operators No. 5 and 6 in horror, his face full of uneasiness and horror.

"Pete! Jeff!"

"What are you doing?"

Sindora, who was frightened by her men's astonishing actions, shrank back to the back of the sofa as much as possible.

However, in addition to operators No. 5 and 6, the other operators No. 2, No. 3, and No. 4 also slowly turned around from the rotating chairs.

"Chairman Thomas Sindola"

"Greetings from Mr. Carr of Arkham."

Thanks to Niki for the 1500 reward for only eating saury!
