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's an Acquaintance (shuhaige.net)

Yoruichi Toyama was too lazy to argue with the worldview, and spun around in all directions, but could not see Akechi's figure.

"Michika! Hey! Michika, you didn't choose not to team up, did you?"

Given the young master's temperament, he definitely wouldn't team up if it were just a game.

But the situation is different now.

Yoruichi Toyama has great faith in wise professional ethics.

Then there's only one option...

A cold laugh rang in my ears, but there was no one beside me.

"You have been set to be prohibited from teaming up by the system. Please complete the game mission solo."

"Noah's Ark!" Yoruichi Toyama recognized the strange, electronic voice.

"You seem so serious, but it turns out you're up to these little tricks too!"

"Didn't we say we wouldn't interfere with the game?"

While asking the question, he continued to look around.

The streets were pitch black, and there wasn't a soul in sight.

The dim streetlights couldn't penetrate the thick darkness; beyond that, there was only nothingness.

Noah's Ark chuckled.

"You've already cheated to get into the game, so there's nothing wrong with me banning you from teaming up, right?"

"I can assure you that the game settings have not been changed at all. As long as you make the right choices, you can achieve a perfect score."

Given that this AI had previously been infuriated by the combined efforts of Akechi and Yuzuriha, Yoruichi Toyama felt that it wasn't too cunning and probably wouldn't lie.

Well... that's fine too.

Although it's uncertain whether Mingzhi can successfully complete the game, the conditions set by this silly AI were quite lenient; as long as one person completes the game, it's fine.

Yoruichi Toyama didn't place all her hopes on Conan, the chosen one of this world, simply out of a sense of responsibility as a police officer.

With two people in the game, namely myself and Mingzhi, who understand the true nature of Noah's Ark, perhaps they can restrain it a bit more and buy some time for the village outside, which is currently vying with the AI ​​for control of the game.

As for the remaining matters outside, such as the puppeteer and the Vermouth appearing in Lan Zexi's guise, they can only be left to Mr. An.

...

Lan Zeqian and Yuanshan Yeyi once again went to the bar on the second floor.

Soothing, light music filled the air, while bright, moderately lit lights gently shone down from above.

Watching the sea outside the window, a mysterious darkness descends as night falls.

There is a comforting tranquility.

Lan Zeqian tilted her head and looked at Toyama Yoruichi with a smile, as if asking a question.

Yuanshan Yeyi understood the look in her eyes.

"Miss Lanze has such refined taste," he said sincerely.

However, Lan Zexi immediately gave him a light tap.

"I told you not to call me that... Have you forgotten?"

Faced with her inquiring gaze, Yoruichi Toyama smiled calmly and turned her head away.

"Okay, what would you like to drink?"

Lan Zexi greeted them like a proper hostess.

"Soda water, please."

This answer clearly did not satisfy Lan Zexi.

"I'm not bragging, but there's probably no drink that you can't order at the bar in the Deep Blue Hotel."

"But Mr. Toyama wouldn't even let me show off a little."

Her expression was one of slight reproach and coquettish charm, with the unique cuteness of a girl her age.

Yoruichi Toyama couldn't help but chuckle.

"In that case, then... Bamboo will do."

The bartender, upon receiving the order, began preparing the food without saying a word.

Lan Zexi habitually rested her elbows on the bar, propped her chin on her hand, and tilted her head to look at the person next to her.

His smile held a keen interest.

"A very unique flavor."

"By the way, do you know how to make Bamboo?"

"It uses two types of base spirits: Sherry and Vermouth, which we call..."

Absinthe.

...

Yoruichi Toyama, who had just adjusted to her surroundings and hadn't even figured out which way to go, heard a scream from not far away.

The cry was abruptly cut off, as if it had been ripped apart by a person.

Yuanshan Ye Yi instinctively took off running.

Under the dim streetlights, a dark figure crouched down, revealing a mouthful of bright, sharp teeth like a wild beast.

And those eyes were almost blood red.

Jack the Ripper?!

Recalling the opening scene of the game, Yoruichi Toyama rushed straight towards the dark figure without stopping.

Thinking to himself that with his skills, if he could take down the boss here, Noah's Ark would be so angry that his electronic nose would be crooked!

However, things are clearly not that simple.

The terrifying legend that swept through the streets of London, the horrific killer, faced with Yoruichi Toyama charging at him alone, didn't even bother to defend himself, simply turning his head and running away with his rear end sticking out.

run?

I can run too!

Having received comprehensive enhancements to her physical abilities from Kotaro, Yoruichi Toyama was brimming with confidence and relentlessly pursued him.

But before they had even crossed an intersection, a dark shadow suddenly flashed ahead and disappeared in an instant.

"Huh? Huh?..."

Yoruichi Toyama was a little stunned and stood there circling around several times.

The road is lined with old-fashioned houses, with one side of the gable facing outwards. There are no signs of the doors or windows being opened, nor are there balconies or other places to climb.

There wasn't a single alleyway that someone could easily slip into with a turn of their head.

It's fair to say that the figures who were running so energetically just moments ago simply vanished without a trace.

Just as Yoichi Toyama was wondering what was going on, the sharp sound of a police siren pierced the darkness of the London streets.
