Chapter 937 Where is your conscience? Added to the leader [Gongzi Queyue]
Jinpei Matsuda looked at Jiang Xia's rapidly retreating back, his eyes twitched, and he also wanted to retreat.
But before he could take a step, the psychic master gave him a caring reminder along with the contract:
"I'll wait nearby, don't leave in a hurry. You must wait until the players see you, and then escape in the coolest way possible - all villains do this.
"Now that I've done this, I must implement the villain's principles to the end and be the most qualified villain."
Matsuda Jinpei: “…”
Why would a mature and steady adult ghost consider such a useless question as "whether it looks cool when running away"...
The ghost in question had mixed feelings.
However, since it was Jiang Xia's order, then it's considered work...
…
Jinpei Matsuda tried his best to recall the comics he had read in his middle school years. He half-knelt beside the corpse, shook his cloak, and struck a fairly handsome sword-wielding pose, waiting sadly for the little kids to come over.
In the cafe next door.
After Jiang Xia entered the room, he went all the way to the second floor, came to the window, and looked at the street outside through the foggy glass.
Noah popped out from somewhere, flopped next to him, and landed obediently on the table.
Jiang Xia rubbed the crystal ball, which felt very good in his hand, and then said naturally: "The drink is good, another one. Let's have wine this time." He snapped his fingers, "-- let's have some of this era's signature beer."
Noah: "..." This is a coffee shop, he only prepared coffee...
But since Jiang Xia wants to drink...
Noah had no choice but to look up the information silently, work overtime on the spot, and make a cup now.
…
The other side.
One minute ago.
As the game begins, Conan and others who chose the "Jack the Ripper Copy" appear on the streets of London.
The children originally thought that this was a romantic era, but soon, the polluted air and dirty urban areas forced them to face reality. Affected by the environment, their already heavy hearts became even heavier.
It may be that bloody murderers like "Jack the Ripper" are not very popular among children.
In the end, there were only two groups of players who chose this copy.
——The first group, of course, is the group of familiar people in Jiangxia.
The other group is "Hideki Moroboshi" and his small second-generation group.
——Noah, who replaced the identity of "Hideki Moroboshi", would of course choose this copy. And the other second-generations, seeing their "child heads" walk in here, followed them.
The two groups entered from the same entrance, landed at the same birth point, and naturally gathered together, whispering about the current situation.
At this moment, a terrified scream of someone approaching death suddenly sounded from somewhere nearby.
…
Everyone was stunned and looked at the intricate streets ahead.
Immediately afterwards, Conan, the only one in the group who could be considered a complete "detective", was the first to come to his senses. He rushed out quickly, trying to find the source of the sound.
After running for a while, Conan's eyes fixed.
On the stone street on the right, there are two figures, one standing and one lying.
——A man dressed in black squatted beside the bloody woman, holding a knife high. The blade was shining with a chilling light, and he seemed to be about to stab her.
Conan shouted, "Stop!"
“…”
Matsuda Jin lowered his arm which had been raised for a while, looked in the direction where the players were running, and revealed a sinister sneer.
Then suddenly he stood up, threw his cape, and strode along the street to a deserted side. Behind him, the cape spread out like a fan, fluttering in the wind.
"..."Only at this time did Jinpei Matsuda feel that Xiaobai's hobby of "watching dramas" was actually not bad.
——Thanks to those messy dramas, he learned a lot of strange knowledge, such as the cloak-throwing just now... I hope this can satisfy the psychic master who has high requirements for "level".
Thinking of this, before "escaping", Matsuda Jinpei took the opportunity to hold down his hat and glanced at the window diagonally above.
Jiang Xia was seen sitting elegantly opposite a ball, holding a huge beer glass in his hand.
While Matsuda Jinpei was looking over, Jiang Xia seemed to be aware of something and looked down at him at the right moment, raising his glass to him from a distance. Then he smiled in appreciation... He seemed to be more into the role than "Jack the Ripper".
…
The glass was thick, reflective, and covered in dust, and obscured by the brim of Jack the Ripper's hat.
Conan, who was chasing after them, was unable to see the brief exchange between the two fake "villains".
Conan's eyes were focused on the man in black who was running wildly in front of him.
He looked at the other person's running speed, then looked down at his own elementary school student's legs, and sighed in his heart, knowing that he probably couldn't catch up... Fortunately, elementary school students also have elementary school methods.
…
Thinking of this, Conan's eyes moved and fell to the ground in front of him.
——For some reason, on the street a few meters away from the body, a heavy coffee cup was lying quietly, as if it had been discarded by someone.
Looks to be of good quality, solid and sturdy.
I don't know why someone would litter it, but...
Conan looked at Jack the Ripper's back and smiled with a confident smile.
He squatted down, clicked on the switch of his foot-strengthening shoes, and then took a running start and kicked the coffee cup: "Don't even think about running!"
The scene of “Jack the Ripper being hit on the back of the head by a coffee cup, falling into a coma, speed running the game, and leading 49 other players out of the siege” emerged in my mind.
Conan kicked the coffee cup hard with the tip of his shoe.
Boom——
The coffee cup flew up two meters with a terrifying sound.
Then it fell to the ground with a clang and rolled into the ditch nearby.
“…”
The air was quiet for a second.
After a moment, Conan let out a cry and hugged his feet.
A sharp dull pain came from his foot, and he experienced for the first time in a long time the natural reaction of a normal person when kicking a hard object.
…
In the distance, Jinpei Matsuda vaguely heard a child's scream, pressed down the brim of his hat, and looked back.
Seeing the cup rolling away, he remembered the scene of Jiang Xia throwing away the cup just now. He silently looked away and pretended that he saw nothing.
“……”The psychic medium really has no conscience.
...But if you think about it, this is just a game. The pain won't cause any harm, and it might even stimulate your nerves and make you more sensitive.
In addition, compared to the critical situation of "when facing real danger, suddenly finding that all the props are unusable", it is better to check and resolve the crisis in advance like now.
…Jinpei Matsuda convinced himself skillfully.
His mysterious figure quickly disappeared into the shadows of the alley.
…
When Conan hugged his foot and jumped on the spot because of the pain.
The other group of players finally found a place and ran to Conan.
