He's in Detective Conan, but a Triumph Attorney.

But now it seems that this tricky investigation method still cannot find Jack the Ripper in one step?

"...Ms. Alice, I remember that when you were chatting with me last time, you mentioned that you wanted to make a special bracelet, right? The kind that would automatically vibrate to remind you if the other person was lying..."

"Hey, Naruhodō-kun is still thinking about that bracelet. It's a pity that the research on it has been put on hold."

Alice spread her hands helplessly and said so.

"Because, not long after you left, Mr. Mycroft, Mr. Holmes's brother, whom I had hardly seen, came to visit, and then the old man who was traveling with him said that the other direction was more interesting."

"So, I discussed with the old man and made this set of props that can reproduce the scene according to the language description. I haven't named this prop yet."

"Naruhodō-kun, Shousasha, what do you think?"

...Mycroft? I've never heard of this name before. Does Sherlock Holmes have a brother?

Naruhodō Ryunosuke was a little confused, he had never heard of this name before.

However, Shousha next to her was not surprised by this, and she reminded him in a low voice.

"Master Naruhodō, Mr. Mycroft is mentioned in the Sherlock Holmes collection published by Lady Alice. It is said that Mr. Mycroft's reasoning ability is even better than that of Nag Holmes."

"However, since Mr. Mycroft has never appeared, and Mr. Holmes has never mentioned him, it is normal for Mr. Naruhodō not to know Mr. Mycroft."

The Sherlock Holmes Collection is said to be written by Holmes' assistant, Dr. Watson.

However, as Mao Lilan is like Kudo Shinichi's girlfriend, she has been listening to Kudo Shinichi talk about Sherlock Holmes since she was a child. Under the influence of Kudo Shinichi, she also has some understanding of the Sherlock Holmes detective series.

The so-called Dr. Watson does not exist in reality. The person who wrote the Sherlock Holmes series of stories was Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. Dr. Watson is just the person who published the Sherlock Holmes collection in the book.

However, in this game scene where Sherlock Holmes really exists, it seems that Miss Alice, who plays against Dr. Watson, has also published stories about the Sherlock Holmes collection.

The female high school student was offering advice from the side.

"How about calling this item [Then] [Then]?"

"...It sounds a bit strange. Never mind, let's not mention the name for now and start investigating!"

Alice Watson exclaimed.

"I'll stay here and wait for you to come back. You must come back before Ya Shuangyi is taken to the court by the police for trial!"

Hearing this, the members of the Junior Detective Team looked at each other and said, no need to say anything, now is the time to act!

Any time, any place, young detective, ready to solve cases at any time!

Just as the members of the Junior Detective League tried to slip away, they were caught on the spot by Naruhodō Ryunosuke and Mouri Ran.

I saw the female high school student pulling Genta and Mitsuhiko by the collars, and the lawyer called Ayumi.

Although they had not been with the Junior Detectives for a long time, Naruhodō Ryunosuke's eyes, which could see through the truth, had already seen through their suicidal nature and took immediate action. "Please protect Miss Alice here and wait for us to come back!"

The legendary lawyer waved and left with his legal assistant, soon entering the night of old London and completely disappearing from everyone's sight.

Now, the only ones left in the room were the members of the Junior Detective League, Alice Watson, Mao Li Ran, and the famous young man who had come to the University of London with Naruhodō Ryunosuke.

At this moment, Takizawa Shinya became the focus of everyone's attention.

"W-What are you looking at me like that? I didn't do anything!"

The young celebrity said with a lack of energy.

"...What? I just wanted to ask where the two people you were with went."

Although Genta didn't think that Takizawa Shinya had done anything bad, when he saw the other party's appearance, he suddenly became suspicious and just listened to his questions.

"Wait, hey, you didn't really do anything bad, did you? You look so guilty!"

"Yes, yes, even his expression changed! Just like someone who did something wrong and doesn't want to speak out!"

Mitsuhiko and Ayumi were adding fuel to the fire, and even Alice and Mouri Ran vaguely sensed that something was wrong.

At this time, facing the pressure from the Junior Detective League, Takizawa Susumu finally couldn't hold it in and told what he had been hiding.

That was some time after the game started, when he and another famous boy followed Hideki Moroboshi and planned to steal Naruhodō Ryunosuke's lawyer armband.

However, when Takizawa Susumu saw the Demon Hunting Sword on Naruhodō Ryunosuke's waist, he thought of the lawyer Mukai Genmitsu in the game venue and eventually gave up this plan.

"…So, I really didn't do anything at the time. I just followed them to the port, and then the two of them snatched Mr. Naruhodō's lawyer's armband and ran away…"

"But it does feel strange. Why did Moroboshi insist that Naruhodō would defend Jack the Ripper and demand that we grab the lawyer's armband?"

The famous young man Takizawa Jinya was a little confused. He now spoke about his previous experiences and doubts, and he might not have thought of getting the answer to this question through other people.

But Alice answered this question without hesitation after hearing it.

"Of course it's because the person who will be caught, [Jack the Ripper], is Naruhodō-kun's good friend [Yasou Yoshikazuma]. He will definitely defend his friend, so there is no doubt about that!"

“…Is that so?”

A bad feeling arose in Mao Lilan's heart.

Yes, according to the plot time, from Naruhodō Ryunosuke's appearance at the port to Asougi's arrest, the interval between them was less than half a day, so Alice's thoughts were normal————

In other words, her idea was that [Morohise] knew that the [Jack the Ripper] who would be caught would be [Yoshikazu Asogi], and [Ryunosuke Naruhodō] would definitely defend [Yoshikazu Asogi], so he stole the lawyer's armband.

However, Hideki Moroboshi is a game player like them. He doesn't know anything about the game before entering. How could he take action based on this?

“… Could it be that Moroboshi isn’t a gamer…?”

she murmured.

Chapter 558 Moriarty's True Identity

Hideki Moroboshi's real identity is probably not a player. It is not difficult for the detective to come to this conclusion. In Conan's eyes, if Noah's Ark used a player's identity, then it could only be chosen from among three people.

That is, he is one of the three members of Hideki Moroboshi who chose to act separately from the beginning of the game. He is more inclined to believe that Hideki Moroboshi, who can take the leadership position among the trio, will be the player to be replaced.

Since Noah's Ark is here to play this game, it is impossible for him to violate the rules recklessly. Therefore, his choice is probably to use Hideki Moroboshi's identity to influence the other two game players.

Thus, we can improve our ability to influence the overall game players on this basis...

However, if this was the case, Noah's Ark would not have chosen to kill Reito Hoshino at the beginning of the game, causing the game player team to act separately.

Unless, He has a reason to kill Housheng Reito due to the plot, even if it means lowering His own game health and breaking certain rules.

"Come to think of it, that guy seemed to have tried to hack into Noah's Ark's firewall during the internal test, and his computer programming skills are quite outstanding."

"We were able to break through the firewall of Dr. Agasa's laboratory computer in a very short time. With the help of several other beta testers, it was not difficult to design a targeted cheating program."

Conan pushed up his plain glasses and walked on the street, muttering to himself.

Perhaps Xiang Yuanguang's first reaction might be that Housheng Reito knew too much about the plot so Noah's Ark would kill Housheng Reito, but he would not think so.

The plots of the public beta and the closed beta have already changed to a considerable extent. Even if Reito Hosho is allowed to lead the team alive, it can only speed up the investigation a little at most.

Therefore, it is impossible for Noah's Ark to kill Reito Housheng directly because he knows the plot of the internal test. It is most likely because Reito Housheng violated the rules of the game.

"The new prosecutor [Hao] has been staying in his office. If I want to get rid of him, I have to get into the prosecutor's office."

"But it's hard to get into the Procuratorate, and Hao won't show up on the street like Yi Liu Wan Cai, so we can only cancel the original plan."

"Now, Asogi's trial is about to begin, and Jack the Ripper's true identity remains shrouded in darkness."

"So, as the mastermind behind all this, Professor James Moriarty, should you also say something?"

Crunch——————

The back door of the Reichenbach Building opened, and it was pitch black inside, as if nothing could be seen.

But fortunately, Conan has everything he needs, even a flashlight for lighting that he can take out and use at any time.

He stepped on the light of the flashlight and walked forward along the road, and there was nothing strange about this road.

No, the biggest strange thing about this road is that there is nothing strange about it, because Conan did not see the [door].

There was no door leading to the stairs or the door to the utility room. This was completely different from the normal layout of a building.

At the end of this simple road, Conan's sight stopped at the strange-looking special prop in front of him.

"Professor Moriarty, you can clearly hear me talking, but you have been hiding your head and dare not come out to see me."

"As a king of the dark world, are you afraid of even a primary school student? You are really underestimated!"

The Death Elementary School Student spoke loudly, as if trying to provoke Professor Moriarty, but in fact, he did so with the idea of ​​judging the location by the sound.

However, Professor Moriarty was completely unaffected by his provocation, which was different from what he expected.

Whoosh——the sound of something being touched was heard, and the next moment, a tall figure appeared in front of Conan. The way he appeared surprised Conan.

Because this seems to be a projection device that has not yet been put into actual use in the real world!

"I won't underestimate you, ever."

Professor Moriarty's voice sounded so calmly, as if nothing in the world could surprise him, completely different from Conan's impression.

Wearing a black coat, a black cape, and a white mask...

It looks exactly like the man who shot Reito Hoshino in the hospital at that time, as if telling Conan that he was the man who shot Reito Hoshino in the hospital ward, and he was the real Professor Moriarty.

But, is such a thing possible...?

The Death God Elementary School Student stared at the projection of Professor Moriarty. His eyes swept across the other's waist, and then he suddenly sighed, as if he was a little frustrated, and he said.

"It was really you who killed Hosou Reito, and it was also you who framed Asou Giichima. You deliberately made Asou Giichima wear the same clothes as you, just to use the similarities to complete the perfect murder today."
