Chapter 931 What game are you playing? Let's solve the case.
Jiang Xia nodded slightly, and the man and the ghost communicated according to the contract:
"When you broadcast it to the public later, avoid Haibara Ai with the camera, and randomly pick a few other children to avoid the whole process... Forget it, just broadcast the highlights to the public. AI can be unreasonable anyway."
Noah was obviously in a better mood than before. Thinking of the copy he would do later, he bowed slightly like a dutiful British butler and said, "Okay, Master."
The fat ball that looked like transparent jelly folded in half and then bounced up again.
Jiang Xia's fingers trembled: "..."
Want to touch.
...But there are a lot of people here, and the game hasn't officially started yet, so Noah hasn't completely taken over the "cocoon". If I randomly rub the ghost, it will look a bit strange if I get seen. I'd better wait until I get back.
Thinking of this, Jiang Xia leaned against the soft back of the chair, sat calmly, and waited for the game to begin. …
Soon, in the control room, Sindora announced "Game on," and the employee pressed the start button.
A gentle female electronic voice sounded from the headphones of "Cocoon" and on the stage:
"Fifty people, all on board."
The brainwave transmission device is set up, the main hardware starts to connect, the area code is input, the linker is connected, and the coordinate axis is slightly adjusted. The screen is displayed, the system is started, and the energy setting is completed...
After a series of complicated operations, the lights on the stage gradually dimmed.
The cocoon emits a gentle electric current.
All the players in the game cabin gradually entered a "hypnotic state", and with the help of high-end equipment, their consciousness entered another space.
Noah's eyes turned serious.
It turned around and went back into the game world, and began to launch its game plan of "restarting Japan" according to its previous ideas.
…
At the same time, in the banquet hall outside.
Yusaku Kudo finally broke free from the group of ladies who wanted his autograph - Inspector Megure asked someone to tell him that there was a murder nearby.
He and Dr. Agasa walked into the basement and arrived at the crime scene.
…
The deceased Kenmura Nakaaki was a good friend of Kudo Yusaku in college.
The two had no contact for a long time, but a while ago, Kenmura Nakabin suddenly asked Kudo Yusaku to investigate the cause of Sawada Hiroki's death. In addition, the two sides also cooperated in the development of "Cocoon" this time.
"Brother Kudo! You're finally here." Inspector Megure breathed a sigh of relief when he saw him and quickly walked towards him.
Just now, he wanted to wait for Jiang Xia to solve the case.
Who would have thought that in the blink of an eye, Jiang Xia had disappeared.
Later, Inspector Megure asked Takagi who was visiting various places, and found out that Jiang Xia had just left here and went straight to the game venue, probably because the "Cocoon" experience was about to start... Inspector Megure felt a little sad when he thought that he and the case were not as good as a game.
...Fortunately, we have the calm and steady big brother Kudo.
"I heard that you and Mr. Kenmura are old acquaintances." Inspector Megure asked Kudo Yusaku, "Has he ever had a feud with anyone? Or, has any hostile company been targeting him recently?"
"This..." Kudo Yusaku frowned.
When it comes to enemies, the first person that comes to his mind is "Sindorak".
But the matter was of great importance and the people involved were troublesome, so he did not say this until strong enough evidence was found.
…
Yusaku Kudo walked to the computer desk, his eyes fell on the black keyboard, and he quickly noticed the bloody fingerprints on it.
——There are three keys that have been pressed.
Kudo Yusaku took a quick look and was stunned for a moment: "...JTR?"
Beside him, Takagi Wataru's ears twitched and he came closer: "What does this mean? Jiang Xia and Conan seemed to have muttered this word just now."
"It should be the death message left by Jiancun." Kudo Yusaku's mystery man physique awakened again. He and Dr. Agasa looked at each other, nodded to each other, and suddenly turned around and walked out.
Mumu Police Department: "?"
He quickly rushed to the door and grabbed one of them: "Don't just think you know it yourself! Tell me too."
"...JTR is the abbreviation of an important character in the game." Kudo Yusaku sighed, "Kenmura and I have always called him JTR."
Inspector Megure was puzzled: "So who is 'he'?"
Dr. Agasa helped translate: "It's Jack The Ripper, the murderer who actually existed in London in the late 19th century and who murdered at least five women by disembowelment, causing the entire society at that time to fall into panic."
"That's right. The London police failed to catch him in the end, so this remains an unsolved case." Kudo Yusaku lowered his voice:
"In the game copy we designed, Jack the Ripper appears. He is the final villain.
"——Jiang Xia and Conan probably thought of this, so they went into the 'cocoon'. They thought they could find the death message left by Jiancun there."
"I see..." Inspector Megure finally understood, Brother Kudo, you are going to the game control room.
——Now that the game has begun, it is obviously too late for the police to go in and look for clues.
However, think about it with an adult's mindset - it's all just a bunch of data anyway. If you want clues, wouldn't it be faster to go directly to the developer than to go in and play a game?
Inspector Megure: "..." Brother Jiang Xia is still too young... Of course, we can't rule out that he really wants to play games, so his thinking is disturbed...
In addition, Inspector Megure thought: If the game is related to the murderer, perhaps children should not be allowed to continue experiencing it - from what he heard during the on-site investigation, "Cocoon" is a game that can have a direct impact on the human body.
What if the person who killed Jiancun Zhongbin was a rival of the game company, and that cruel murderer was not satisfied with killing a developer and was determined to create a game accident, then things would be troublesome.
…
With this in mind, the group came to the game control room.
Inspector Megure showed his police ID and successfully entered.
When Sindora heard the noise, he turned around from the console and saw Kudo Yusaku and Dr. Agasa walking in with a few strangers.
He frowned. This kind of place should not be entered by outsiders. "What's the matter?"
Kudo Yusaku also knew that Sintra was arrogant. He was afraid that nothing he said would work.
So he gestured to Inspector Megure at the side, hoping that the identity of "policeman" would make this IT industry tycoon hesitate: "This is Inspector Megure of the Metropolitan Police Department."
Inspector Megure nodded and stepped forward, saying seriously: "This game may be related to a murder case. I hope you can terminate this gaming experience immediately."
"Terminate?" Sindorah sneered, not wanting to pay attention. "Don't think this 'game' is just a game - this is a technological revolution, and you can't stop it just by saying so."
At this moment, the machine nearby suddenly beeped and a series of alarms sounded.
