As a Great Detective, I Choose to Call the Police

Recently, Tokyo Nichiuri TV host Yoko Okino conducted an exclusive interview. Her interviewee was the renowned private detective and special consultant to the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department&#...

Chapter 139: Inside and outside the game, everyone is an acquaintance.

Unsurprisingly, Yoruichi Toyama, as a witness to Jack the Ripper's crimes, was questioned by the police.

He was so focused on chasing the person that he didn't even bother to check the body on the ground, thus avoiding the trouble caused by touching the scene or accidentally getting blood on his hands.

The police saw that he was a clean-cut young man who spoke calmly and showed no resistance to questioning, so they dispelled their already little suspicion.

only……

Yoruichi Toyama struggled to suppress her laughter as she faced the questioning police officer.

The officer who called himself Lestrade should be the Scotland Yard agent who knew Holmes, but his appearance was exactly the same as that of Inspector Megure, an old acquaintance of Yoruichi Toyama.

By the way, Conan said that Yusaku Kudo was involved in the plot design of this game!

It's clearly that novelist's twisted sense of humor.

Moreover, I remember that Sherlock Holmes' image was based on himself, and Dr. Watson was based on Professor Agasa.

As for Yukiko, Yusaku's beloved wife, she makes a cameo appearance as Irene Adler, the only woman who could make Holmes admit defeat.

The main feature is a group of family and friends all participating.

However, putting all that aside, since it was written by that novelist...

“Sir,” Officer Lestrade kindly advised, interpreting Yoruichi Toyama’s expression and absent-mindedness as impatience, “it’s getting late, you’d better hurry home.”

"Although Jack the Ripper has never attacked a man before, your actions just now..."

Good heavens, this guy actually took off chasing after Jack as soon as he saw him! What a fool!

"I understand, thank you for reminding me."

Yoruichi Toyama agreed quickly.

This police officer is officially recognized as a good guy, so there's no need to argue with him just because he's different.

but……

What keeps replaying in my mind is Jack's ghostly disappearance.

If even he couldn't catch up, one can imagine how much less others, like Conan who lost Ken, could catch up.

Based on the timeline, they completed this part of the story before I and Mingzhi. Where will they go next?

...Oh, right!

Yoruichi Toyama suddenly realized what was happening, turned to look at Inspector Lestrade, and asked seriously:

"Excuse me, which way should I go to Mr. Sherlock Holmes' house?"

...

"Miss Lan Ze, are you quite knowledgeable about alcohol?"

Yoruichi Toyama, standing at the bar, took the mixed drink, gently swirled it, and seemed to casually ask a question.

But Lan Zexi nodded seriously and waved her hand in acknowledgment.

The bartender tactfully left, leaving the two with ample private space.

"I like alcohol." Lan Zexi also swirled the specially mixed strong liquor in her hand, her smile appearing somewhat mysterious.

"However, my interest in Bamboo comes from its two base spirits."

“Sherry, do you know, I know a girl named Sherry.”

"Oh?" Yoruichi Toyama smiled and asked, quite obligingly, "Where is Sherry? Didn't Miss Aizawa invite her?"

“She’s dead,” Lan Zexi said lightly.

Yoruichi Toyama seemed to pause for a moment before saying, "I'm sorry, you must be very sad."

“No.” Lan Zexi’s expression was even somewhat cheerful as she continued to swirl the wine in her glass.

"I won't be sad if Shirley dies."

"I hate her."
