Chapter 951 Are you AI?
Thinking of this, Conan had no choice but to force a smile at "Professor Moriarty" and said insincerely: "Of course, you can go wherever you want. It's your freedom."
Then he glanced again at Suzuki Sonoko who had "voluntarily surrendered to the enemy", sighed, turned his head away silently, and tried to find where Irene Adler was.
As he looked around, Conan suddenly discovered that a fat NPC had jumped out in front of him to block the way.
The NPC in charge twisted his funny upturned mustache, looked down at them, and said seriously: "Who are you? This is the staff area, please leave immediately!"
Mao Lilan hurried forward and nervously spoke the lines she had prepared in advance: "Well, we are friends of Irene Adler, and we want to express our condolences to her before the show starts."
Jiang Xia thought of what Noah had just said about "blocking the road" and glanced at "Hideki Moroboshi" out of the corner of his eye.
Noah silently turned off the NPC's blocking switch.
…
Ahead.
As soon as Mao Lilan finished speaking, Conan cooperated and raised the bouquet of flowers that he had prepared in advance.
At the same time, he habitually entered the cute state, trying to pretend to be a naive child who knows nothing about the world, looking eagerly at the fat and stern steward: "These are the flowers we plan to give to her."
As Conan spoke, he was also worried. He remembered the obstacles he had encountered with various NPCs before - in this scary world, whether it was the coffee shop staff or the police, they all seemed to be completely immune to cute children...
Therefore, while Conan was acting cute, he had already made preparations for both scenarios.
——He planned to let Mao Lilan knock down the butler with one punch while no one was looking at this place. Then the players would take the opportunity to escape with Irene Adler, who was targeted by "Jack the Ripper", and save this innocent woman.
However, before he could take action.
The fat steward looked at the bouquet of flowers, his expression changed slightly, and he actually looked a lot kinder.
He laughed heartily and said, "Haha, so she's Miss Irene's friend. What beautiful flowers - go quickly, she's in the innermost lounge, there's a poster on the door, it should be easy to spot her."
Conan: "...Okay, thank you uncle."
...It turned out to be so smooth?
…
The group walked smoothly towards Irene Adler's lounge.
Suzuki Sonoko said happily: "As expected of a detective copy, everything requires skills - it seems that the choice of 'bring flowers' corresponds to the key node of 'visit Irene Adler'. This is exactly the correct way to pass the level!"
Jiang Xia nodded and said in a friendly manner: "Yes, it is a clear decision."
Conan was stunned and turned back suspiciously: "..." Wait, why can NPC understand the word "pass method"?
...Is there a built-in program that automatically praises the player upon hearing certain words?
…
Conan was so curious that he couldn't help but turn around and repeat what Suzuki Sonoko had just said in a voice loud enough for Moriarty to hear: "This is exactly the correct way to pass the level!"
He was originally wondering whether Moriarty would say "What a clear decision" or some other synonyms.
However, the situation was completely different from what he thought.
When Moriarty heard this, he said nothing.
He was just slightly startled, and looked at Conan with a surprised look as if he was looking at a repeater. He hesitated for a moment, perhaps because he really didn't know what to say here, so he turned his head away as if nothing had happened and ignored Conan.
Conan: “…”
Instead, the other players looked at Conan in surprise, and then became a little alert: "...Conan?" This kid, could he have been invaded by something like Noah? Why does he speak so mechanically...
Conan noticed their ominous gazes, scratched his head with a dry laugh, and said against his will: "I just thought the way Sonoko-sister said that was cool, so I followed suit and imitated it, hahahaha..."
…
After successfully getting away with it, Conan couldn't help but secretly glance at Moriarty again.
From Noah to "Moriarty", these guys are so much like real people.
Has AI developed to this point? ... It feels like a real-life role play.
…
The backstage corridor of the opera house was not too long, and the group of people quickly reached the end.
Just as the fat steward said just now - at the end of the corridor, on a closed wooden door, there was a beautiful goddess poster.
“This is it.”
Mao Lilan looked at the lounge in front of her, rubbed her hands, and was a little excited.
——As a star-chasing girl who wants to chase every star, although Irene Adler is just a paper figure, she is a very charismatic and star-like paper figure.
Mao Lilan really couldn't help but get excited: "I wonder what kind of person Miss Irene will be."
Conan was also a little excited at first.
But at this moment, standing at the door, he was suddenly startled and remembered something:
By the way, in this game, "Sherlock Holmes" is played by his father Yusaku Kudo.
In that case, then "Irene Adler", the woman that Holmes loved...
…
Mao Lilan reached out and knocked on the door twice.
Soon, someone inside could be heard saying sweetly, "Come in!"
A group of people pushed the door open.
The lounge was quite spacious and exquisitely decorated. In front of the full-length mirror opposite the door stood a woman with waist-length hair.
Hearing them enter the room, the woman turned from the mirror and looked at them with a smile, the hem of her whalebone skirt swaying.
When Mao Lilan saw the face of "Irene Adler" clearly, she was suddenly stunned.
After a moment, she couldn't help but blurt out: "...Shinichi's mother?!"
——This is exactly the face of Kudo Yukiko. Not only the face, but also the hairstyle and body shape are exactly the same.
Conan: "..." How much private information did my father have mixed in...
Thinking of this, he was suddenly startled, and secretly glanced at "Moriarty" who was following quietly behind him:
In this case, who is Moriarty based on?
He looked like a high school student, or someone who had just entered college.
Conan carefully recalled the high school detectives he knew, and he didn't remember anyone with this appearance. He sighed and said, "Forget it, I'll ask my dad when I get out."
…
In the room, Irene Adler was stunned for a moment in confusion when she heard what Mao Lilan said.
After a moment, she put her hands on her waist and pretended to be angry: "How rude! I'm single now."
Conan came to his senses when he heard his mother's voice.
He walked up quickly, handed the bouquet to "Irene Adler", and changed the subject: "I'm sorry, Sister Xiaolan, you got the wrong person. That - this is a bouquet from Mr. Holmes to you."
"Wow, thank you." Irene Adler happily took it, held it in her arms and admired it for a moment, then looked behind the player, "Where's Sherlock Holmes?"
