People are in Conan, but Ace Attorney

Chapter 974 Peak of Hope
"It's just like a player in a game who only pursues a peaceful ending."

Chiaki Nanami remarked with interest from the side.

"Regardless of the reason for the dispute, choose to let both sides settle down peacefully, and do not fight or become hostile to either side, and maintain this mindset until you clear the game."

"But you can't do that in reality, can you?"

Need I say more? Of course not.

The prosecutor brought charges with the intention of finding him guilty. This amazing person settled the entire case out of court. Putting aside whether it was legal or not, it's absurd that he wasn't fired despite his terrible performance and was even transferred to Tokyo as a district prosecutor.

Thinking of this, Xiang Yuanguang quickly took out his phone.

He quickly found Guiyue Ying's name in his contacts and sent her a message.

Damn it, don't let Onizuki Hotaru lead him astray! She's a third-generation disciple of the Naruhodo school!

Be careful of Haruki Hanyu; he's not mentally stable. Don't hang out with him.

Inside the Tokyo District Public Prosecutors Office.

Gui Yueying held her phone in both hands, looking at the seemingly nonsensical message in the message with some confusion.

If it hadn't been sent by Xiang Yuanguang, she would have thought it was some kind of scam message.

That kind of widespread sending of all sorts of inexplicable messages to mobile phone numbers.

Then, whoever replies knows that someone is using that phone number, and then they bombard people with all sorts of messages.

"What are you looking at?"

Prosecutor Gold turned his head to look at Ghost Moon Firefly's phone screen.

Upon seeing that the message was from Xiang Yuanguang, the red light on the scanning device lit up slightly.

Then, upon seeing the content, the red light dimmed again.

What is that? Haruki Hanyu?

Prosecutor Gold recalled this person.

He remembered that Haruki Hanyu seemed to have been transferred to the Tokyo District Public Prosecutors Office a long time ago.

However, this prosecutor named Haruki Hanyu was not in a hurry to achieve results. Instead, he went to investigate various case files, and it was unclear what he was planning.

He has only met Haruki Hanyu once in all of this time.

It was the day Haruki Hanyu joined the company.

"Prosecutor Gold, do you know who Haruki Hanyu is?"

Gui Yueying raised her head, looked at Prosecutor Gold, and asked with some confusion.

Seeing the young prosecutor's appearance, Prosecutor Gold sighed and said,
“The new prosecutor is even newer than you, and he also came back from abroad.”

“He only came once on his first day of work. You were busy with other case investigations at the time and weren’t at the prosecutor’s office, so you don’t have much of an impression of Haruki Hanyu… Actually, I don’t have a deep impression of him either.”

"If Xiang Yuanguang hadn't mentioned this name in the text message, I would have forgotten that such a person existed."

What? There's actually a prosecutor like this in the Tokyo District Public Prosecutors Office?

Gui Yueying opened her mouth in surprise and instinctively reached out to cover it.

She genuinely had no recollection of that name.

Furthermore, as a prosecutor transferred from another location, shouldn't Haruki Hanyu strive to achieve good results here so that he can be promoted normally when he is transferred back?

Why are we just giving up like this?

Ghost Moon Firefly couldn't understand.

Because of her special circumstances, she couldn't return to the Shikoku region, so she had to stay at the Tokyo District Public Prosecutor's Office. However, Haruki Hanyu will be transferred back sooner or later, so maintaining this situation is hard to understand.

"Fine, if it's hard to understand, then it's fine." "Since Mr. Xiang Yuan said so, I can just do as he says, right?"

"Ghost Moon Firefly said softly."

She put her phone aside and began to browse through the case files she needed to review that day.

Prosecutor Gold shrugged and offered no further comment.

He still has things to investigate this afternoon and can't stay here any longer, so he'll leave first.

But, Yuzuru Haruki?

Let's go back and check it out. Since Xiang Yuanguang thinks this person has a problem, then there must really be a problem. Let's see what kind of problem he has.

"You came to me just to find out about the Cocoon Game?"

"Customs clearance procedures in 19th-century London?"

After hearing Chiaki Nanami's request, Conan asked in confusion.

This is strange.

He has never been very good at games, and he is no match for a high-level gamer like Chiaki Nanami. The situation of the Cocoon Game is also impossible to replicate, so what is the point of Chiaki Nanami asking him for advice?

Chiaki Nanami asked nervously,
"Mr. Xiang Yuan just told me that the reason he was able to defeat Professor Moriarty, one of the final enemies, was because his combat skills were high enough that he could forcibly demolish everything in his path, and that Professor Moriarty was modeled after him."

"So, you beat the game this way too? Was Jack the Ripper based on you?"

Conan:?
Your path dependency seems to be a bit too severe.

Have you ever seen a serial killer modeled after a child? Especially since this serial killer is the infamous Jack the Ripper, it seems impossible, right?
While it's true that Jack the Ripper was designed as a child alien...

However, his father, Yusaku Kudo, as a screenwriter, would never include such novel ideas and character designs in his own scripts.

"Of course it's impossible."

"However, I did manage to knock out the newly appointed presiding judge..."

Conan suddenly remembered something and said somewhat embarrassedly.

He took care of the new presiding judge, Yiliu Wancai, with an anesthetic needle.

The main problem is that the Tribunal in the Cocoon game is too difficult to beat.

If only his situation were reversed with Xiang Yuanguang's—

He teams up with the famous Sherlock Holmes to deal with the terrifying villain Professor Moriarty, while Xiang Yuanguang completely defeats Prosecutor Hao, who is trying to prove Jack the Ripper's innocence, in court.

That would make everyone happy.

The 19th-century London scenario was resolved quite easily and enjoyably, returning to the original intent of the game's creation, and it would never have escalated to the tragic level that followed.

"This, this is it."

Seven Seas Thousand Autumns has some eaves.

Her combat ability has always been pessimistic. She definitely can't knock someone unconscious. You can't just jump up and hit someone's knee, can you? Although it's a bit of an exaggeration, it's true that she has a hard time hitting her target's head.

I have no idea how Conan managed to knock out that new judge named Ichiyanagi Mansai.

The game's live stream doesn't always show Conan's gameplay; the gameplay she sees is intermittent and incomplete.

—But, reasoning and reversal?
Chiaki Nanami remembered the new game that had invited her to participate.

Hope Peak Academy...

Holographic stealth games seem to be developing in this direction, and Hope's Peak Academy's holographic games should be similar. Should she learn more about these skills?
