Anime Crossover: Master is Not Here Today

"Jack the Ripper again!?"

"What number is this?"

"Damn it, are those police officers just sitting around doing nothing? Why haven't they caught the murderer yet?!"

"Just call the police right now!"

Amidst the chatter of passersby, it wasn't long before two uniformed police officers arrived at the scene.

"Get out of the way, get out of the way!"

After observing the deceased for a moment, one of the police officers said to his colleague:

"Go and notify Inspector Lestrade immediately!"

Upon hearing the name, Conan was momentarily stunned.

Is Lestrade the Lestrade I know?

Come spicy!

(End of this chapter)

Chapter 238 Clues and Unexpected Situations: Four People Eliminated!

The moment Conan heard the name Lestrade, a bold guess immediately popped into his mind.

But before he could reveal his conjecture, Bo Dao spoke up first:

"Could it be that this game not only features Jack the Ripper, but also Sherlock Holmes?"

Upon hearing this, everyone turned to look at him.

"Sherlock Holmes?!"

Ran Mouri also realized what was happening and exclaimed in surprise:

"You mean, the Inspector Lestrade they're talking about is the same Inspector Lestrade who worked with Holmes?"

Lestrade is a good friend of Sherlock Holmes, and they often solve cases together. In terms of their roles, he is somewhat similar to Inspector Megure.

Then, Ran Mouri asked with some confusion:

"But aren't Holmes and Lestrade just characters who exist only in novels?"

"But we're in a game right now."

Yui smiled and explained to her:

"It is common for games to use well-known elements from the real world. This game may very well use both Sherlock Holmes and Jack the Ripper, or even more."

"That's it."

Mao Lilan suddenly realized.

Meanwhile, Conan looked at Boda with some surprise.

Compared to new faces like Tong Yao and Jack, Bo Dao had played with them for a while before, so she was quite familiar with them.

However, at that time, Ina acted like a normal, playful child, much like Ayumi. There was no indication that she was interested in reasoning or had read Sherlock Holmes at such a young age.

Somewhat strange.

Conan, of course, had no idea that Boda could obtain all the information about a person and then, based on that information, completely impersonate that person, from appearance to personality, and even to way of thinking, making him, in a sense, indistinguishable from the real person.

Because Fujimaru Ritsuka had asked her not to reveal her abilities, she basically used Kobayakawa Shiori's behavior patterns when interacting with them at school.

Shiori Kobayakawa is just an ordinary little girl from Hitoshima Island, so Conan naturally didn't find anything wrong with her.

From this perspective, in terms of disguise alone, she can be said to be the most skilled person on Earth.

Moreover, in her opinion, Conan's so-called disguise was so clumsy that it was as if he was afraid that others would not discover him.

In short, it's hard to understand.

In addition, while Boda herself had never read the Sherlock Holmes stories, she did eat Nanakaku Hitsuru during one of the loops of the Hitoshima incident and obtained all of his information.

As a mystery novelist, the other party could not possibly have been unaware of the Sherlock Holmes stories, and that's how she acquired this knowledge.

Back to the point.

Although these are just speculations at the moment, the method of verification is quite simple. Bo Dao walked up directly and, pretending to be a child, asked the two police officers:

"Officer, is it possible that even Sherlock Holmes couldn't catch the murderer?"

Upon hearing her question, one of the officers sighed and said:

"Perhaps Sherlock could solve this, but unfortunately he left London and hasn't returned yet."

The officer's words revealed two pieces of information: one good news and one bad news.

The good news is that Sherlock Holmes does indeed exist in the game;

The bad news is that the other party is not in London right now.

"Not in London?"

Ayumi Yoshida was greatly disappointed, but Conan was not surprised and said:

"If Holmes really helps, then our mission becomes very simple. I'm afraid Noah's Ark wouldn't want to see things go this way."

Then, he rested his chin on his hand and analyzed:

"However, since Holmes exists, he will certainly not stand idly by and do nothing about this matter."

"Although he is not in London now, there may be clues about Jack the Ripper that he has investigated in his home."

If that's the case, then their next destination is clear—

221 Baker Street, London, Holmes's residence.

Just then, another officer suddenly seemed to remember something, looked at Bo Dao and the people behind her, and asked with a frown:

"It's so late, why are there so many children on the street? Where are your adults?"

"If you don't have an adult with you, then come back to the police station with us and we'll notify your parents to come and pick you up."

"Thank you, officers. You don't need to trouble yourself with that."

The officer's explanation sounded ominous, so Bo Dao nimbly dodged the officer's outstretched hand and politely declined the offer.

But her action seemed to trigger some kind of switch; the two police officers immediately stood up and, ignoring the scene of the death, rushed towards the crowd.

"Children, don't run around. Come with us to the police station!"

"!"

Bo Dao evaded the police officers' capture, but not every child reacts like her.

Ayumi, Genta, and two of the two second-generation quartet who had been silently following them were caught off guard and grabbed on the spot by two police officers, one in each hand.

"Ayumi, Genta!"

"Swing, advance!"

The crowd cried out in alarm, and what was even more surprising was that after being apprehended by the police, their bodies suddenly emitted a seven-colored light.

"This is.?"

Ayumi and the others looked at their bodies with puzzled expressions, not knowing what had happened, and then they turned into light and disappeared from everyone's sight.

"This is?!"

Upon seeing this, Conan's pupils contracted, and he immediately shouted a warning:

"Anyone caught will be eliminated, everyone run!"

"?!"

Upon hearing this, everyone was startled and dared not stay in place any longer. Led by Conan, they hurriedly fled the scene.

"Don't run!"

"stop!"

Despite eliminating four players at once, the two police officers seemed unsatisfied and continued their pursuit, turning the chase into a bizarre chase.

However, the physical gap between children and adult men is too great. Although Conan and the others are trying their best to escape, it is only a matter of time before they are caught up.

And that time is getting closer and closer.

Seeing this, Ai Haibara immediately said:

"If this continues, we'll all get caught. We have to find a way to deal with them!"

"I know!"

Conan was quickly thinking of a solution when Ran Mouri suddenly spoke up:

"give it to me!"

As soon as she finished speaking, she stopped in her tracks, turned to face the two officers rushing towards her, took a deep breath, and shouted:

"Drink!"

With lightning speed, two clean and decisive kicks easily brought the two men down, and the crisis was instantly resolved.

"Amazing!"

While breathing a sigh of relief, Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.

After stopping, Ran Mouri slowly exhaled, then bowed apologetically to the two officers lying on the ground, saying:

"I'm sorry, it was a special circumstance. Anyway, I'm sorry!"

"Don't worry, Sister Xiaolan, they're just virtual characters in the game."

Conan smiled and comforted Ran Mouri, then continued:

"It's not safe here yet. Let's leave first and then head towards Baker Street."

"Ah."

Standing to the side, Jack glanced at Ran Mouri with some envy, then looked at his own hands with some dejection and said:

"We are too weak right now."
