I'm in Conan, but I'm in Ace Attorney

"Big sis, are you a beta player of the Cocoon game? That's amazing. What is this game like?"

Conan asked in a low voice. If Xiang Yuanguang heard it, the hedgehog's spines would definitely stand on end. However, the girl did not notice Conan's disguise. She thought about it for a moment and then said.

"Because this is the game content that will be announced soon, it's okay for me to tell you. The Cocoon game consists of five game scenarios in total, representing five different game types."

"They are sword fighting game Roman Gladiators, macro strategy game Viking Pirates, puzzle game Solomon's Treasure, reaction racing game Dakar Rally, and logical reasoning game The Hound of the Baskervilles."

"The game I was responsible for testing was Solomon's Treasure. Although it is called Solomon's Treasure, it is actually a short story that has nothing to do with King Solomon himself."

The girl said, as if she had thought of something, and subconsciously touched her cat backpack.

"Originally there were only five beta testers, but one of the beta testers said that playing a game with one person was meaningless, so he convinced the operator to add his sister as a beta tester, so there were actually six beta testers."

"There should be only two or three of the internal test players returning this time..."

"Well, I feel like you're very special. What's your name?"

Hearing the girl's question, Conan briefly reviewed the information in his mind and said.

"My name is Edogawa Conan, big sister, what's yours?"

The girl replied softly.

"My name is Nanami Chiaki."

Click, click, click.

The continuous sound of shutter clicks interrupted the conversation. Under the introduction of developer Thomas Sindora, the famous writer Kudo Yusaku was surrounded by reporters, and many enthusiasts came to ask for his autograph.

Conan's gaze lingered on the particularly popular Kudo Yusaku for a moment, and then he set his sights on Thomas Sindra, the guy who was unanimously believed by his father and Xiang Yuan to be a bad guy, and had appeared.

So, that means... Xiang Yuan is already prepared at this time, how should he get rid of this guy?

At the same time, the database storage room.

Xiang Yuanguang leaned against the wall and yawned. He couldn't understand why Thomas Sindora hadn't come down yet. Could it be that Mr. Kudo forgot to talk to Thomas Sindora and deepen his impression of Mura Tadaki?

He raised his head and looked at the surveillance camera installed on the wall. This was installed by him at the request of a public security officer who did not want to reveal his name. It could record everything going on here clearly.

As long as Thomas Sindra dares to take action at this time, he will be completely finished.

"Mr. Xiang Yuan, are you sure Thomas will come here? Will he really kill me for this?"

As one of the nominal main developers of Noah's Ark, IT engineer, Mura Tadaki asked with some uneasiness.

Although he had been prepared to sacrifice his life against Thomas Sindor from the moment he knew that his son Hiroki Sawada's death was not suicide, this situation still made him a little uneasy.

Because, Tadaaki Murakami felt that no matter how stupid Thomas Sindora was, he would never kill anyone at the launch conference of Cocoon Game. As long as he dared to do it here, it would be extremely difficult for Cocoon Game to expand its influence in this country.

In order to further develop his company, the other party imprisoned and forced to death his son Hiroki Sawada. Would he also take his life on the spot in this dangerous situation just because he might publish the DNA tracing results?

"Ah, that's right. Although I don't know why he would kill people just because of his background..." Xiang Yuanguang repeated what he said before.

"But there is no doubt that he would kill someone because of this. This is the reason why Hiroki Sawada died. It's just that Hiroki jumped off the building and committed suicide before Thomas Sindra could do anything."

Although, he couldn't understand the logic of jumping off a building to prevent himself from being killed. This was similar to the United States police shooting others to prevent them from committing suicide.

Of course, the person eavesdropping on the conversation might not be a human.

"This is Thomas Sindorra, the chairman of Sindorra Corporation. I am here to announce that the Cocoon Game will officially begin. Please ask viewers and game participants to go to the game hall and prepare to start the game."

The voice of Thomas Sindra was heard on the radio. Xiang Yuanguang frowned. He was not sure what was going on because in his impression, Thomas Sindra seemed to have killed someone before the cocoon game started.

That guy clearly already knew something about the DNA tracing system, but at this time he chose to let it go and go host the opening ceremony of the cocoon game?

Could it be that even the fact that he was lying in ambush here was within Thomas Sindra's expectations, or even that he had completely gained control of the authority of Noah's Ark and intended to use it to control the entire gaming venue?

(…Luckily I had a backup plan. As expected, the descendants of Jack the Ripper are not easy enemies to deal with. Not only did they notice the arrangement made by Mr. Kudo and I, but they even managed to turn the tables.)

Xiang Yuanguang took out his special walkie-talkie, turned it on, adjusted the channel, and then spoke.

"The situation may change. Please take necessary measures against Thomas Sindorra."

At this time, the blond male waiter in the exhibition hall... no, Furuya Rei raised his head, with some doubt in his eyes. This seemed to be the first time that Genkou's prediction had deviated.

Could it be that there is a problem with the other party's intelligence network, which is of unknown origin, unfathomable and impossible to investigate?

Walking through the crowd heading to the game hall, Rei Furuya quietly changed out of his waiter uniform and then went to the game control room. He wanted to control the game control room before the game started and thus restrict Thomas Sindra.

Since it might be impossible to convict Thomas Sindorla, he had to ensure the safety of these guests first. As a public security official, he had the power to decide when to obey the law and when to break it...

"…The situation is not what I expected."

Kudo Yusaku stood next to Conan at some point, which scared Conan. The world-famous novelist looked a little weird and he sighed.

"So this is the power of the [modern Jack the Ripper]?"

Conan typed a few question marks and was about to ask what was going on, but he saw Kudo Yusaku took out two props from his pocket and put them in Conan's hands. Conan opened his hands and looked, with some surprise in his eyes.

Because, what Kudo Yusaku gave him was the admission medal for the Cocoon game and the magatama that Xiang Yuanguang often wore!

"Tell Mr. Yuan that if you want to start the Cocoon Game, let me give you this magatama as a countermeasure in case of dangerous situations. It can help you stop this game."

"Okay, get moving, Shinichi. We don't have much time."

Kudo Yusaku left, leaving Conan holding the magatama in his hand in a daze.

...Why did Xiang Yuanguang say that this magatama can be used as a countermeasure in dangerous situations? Can it stop the game? How? EMP high-frequency pulse? It can't be that he called the dead developer out through the backdoor, right?

Chapter 518: Is this the modern Jack the Ripper?

"This is Thomas Sindorra, the chairman of Sindorra Corporation. I am here to announce that the Cocoon Game will officially begin. Please ask viewers and game participants to go to the game hall and prepare to start the game."

The voice of Thomas Sindra was heard over the radio in the banquet hall. Nanatsuki Koshimizu tossed the game medal in her hand indifferently and walked towards the game hall.

Xiang Yuanguang had asked her if she wanted to play the cocoon game, and then he went out of his way to find someone to help her get a game medal. She didn't even know where Xiang Yuanguang got to know these celebrities...

(If I remember correctly, the last Minister of Justice of the old Ministry of Justice was Mugen Masado, who initiated the judicial reform, right?)

Koshimizu Nanatsuki still had some impression of the last Minister of Justice of the old Ministry of Justice. The reason was simple: the reforms made by this Minister of Justice destroyed the old Ministry of Justice, creating a situation where "although the minister was replaced, the new laws remain."

If Arita Ryosuke had not told her at Honikedai last time that Mr. Minamoto Masado had passed away and that the originally designated successor, Minamoto Touya, had given up his position as prosecutor and abandoned his son to pursue music, she would have really wanted to visit him.

"If I remember correctly, Xiang Yuanguang said that if the cocoon game started normally, then we need to start the cocoon game to obtain information about Noah's Ark. It seems that Thomas Sindorra is not that easy to deal with."

The female detective walked forward and suddenly her steps paused. Her eyes fell on the excited members of the Young Detective Team beside her. No matter if they were the fat guy, the thin guy, the little girl, or Haibara Ai, all of them had game medals.

For a moment, she had no idea where these little guys got the game medals, but now they seemed to be about to participate in the cocoon game... Should she stop them at this time?

Nanatsuki Koshimizu has not made a decision yet. On the other side, in front of the door of the game control room, Rei Furuya frowned. He looked at Yusaku Kudo who was blocking him, and his expression darkened.

As a public security policeman, Furuya Rei knows a little bit about everything, including information about the detective novelist in front of him. He knows that the other party has assisted the police in solving cases many times, so he did not take direct action.

However, he didn't know why Kudo Yusaku stopped him at this time and prevented him from entering the game control room to control Thomas Sindra. Didn't the other party know what consequences would be caused by doing so?

"Mr. Kudo... please move aside and don't interfere with my work."

Furuya Rei pressed down his baseball cap, his tone was not very polite, but Kudo Yusaku didn't mind Furuya Rei's tone, he just said it a little strangely.

"There is no need to do this, because Thomas Sindra is different from what we predicted. He didn't realize that we were investigating him and Hiroki Sawada, and he didn't even know that the DNA tracing system had been uncovered."

"The so-called modern Jack the Ripper is only worthy of this title in terms of his fighting ability. His intelligence and reasoning ability are not even as good as his ancestors in the late 19th century..."

This answer was beyond Fūya Ling's expectations. Since he was willing to help Xiang Yuanguang set up surveillance cameras and sneaked into the venue to help Xiang Yuanguang control Thomas Sindorra, he naturally knew Xiang Yuanguang's plan.

Therefore, when he heard this conclusion from Kudo Yusaku, although Furuya Rei's expression did not change, he felt a little bit unbelievable in his heart - how could this be possible?

Thomas Sindra is the chairman of Sindra Corporation, a leading information technology company in the United States. He is also the descendant of Jack the Ripper. He can even attract investments from many domestic celebrities and financial groups, and use the municipal building as the venue for press conferences!

A tycoon of this level is only at this level? Is this a bit too much of an insult to Thomas Sindor?

However, Fūya Rei suddenly thought of Habri Libnand, the head of the leading family of the Narikin Republic, and his heart suddenly calmed down... because he suddenly felt that it was not impossible.

Thomas Sindra in the game control room was unaware of the conversation outside, nor was he aware that his status in Kudo Yusaku's heart had suddenly dropped. Instead, he looked at the situation on the surveillance screen with pride.

Many moviegoers were already in their seats, and the gamers had also passed through security and entered the gaming area. Now they were all seated in the virtual gaming cabins. All he had to do was press the control button for the Cocoon game.

A new era of gaming is about to arrive. The Sindra Corporation will become the master of the new world blueprint, and Thomas Sindra will become another rising star in the United States!

At this moment, a white light suddenly lit up on the screen in the main control room. Thomas Sindra's expression froze on his face. Kudo Yusaku and Furuya Zero pushed the door open, but he had no time to care about it. The chairman of the company that was about to become the master of the new era of games said in horror.

"What's going on? What's going on? Why...why is Noah's Ark out of control?!"

At this time, Conan entered the game cabin according to the instructions of the staff next to him and closed his eyes. He subconsciously put his hand on the magatama in his pocket, and for some reason he felt a lot more at ease.

The original darkness was shrouded by light at this time. He opened his eyes and found himself in an open space covered by white light. Looking around, apart from other game players, there were only five portals.

Outside the portal was a void with nothingness, so dark that nothing could be seen.

A male voice that sounded like that of an elementary school student was heard, not only inside the game, but also in the hall outside the game. Suddenly everyone was confused and surprised, and could only listen to Noah's Ark continue to speak.

"Seeing you like this, I'm sure the children of corrupt politicians will only become corrupt politicians; the children of doctors who are only interested in making money will only become that kind of doctors. If we want to make this country a better place, we can only cut off this connection once and for all."

"From now on, the only way for the player to leave the game cabin is to complete the game. Any other method will cause me to use overclocked radio waves to destroy the player's brain tissue before the player leaves, causing the player to die."

Thomas Sindora looked at the scene in front of him, with a hint of disbelief in his eyes, because the voice of Noah's Ark he heard was the voice of Hiroki Sawada, whom he could never forget!

"If all fifty-two players fail to clear the level, I will release overclocked radio waves in all game cabins at the same time to kill all the players and completely sever this corrupt connection between the previous generation and the next."

"On the contrary, if any one of the fifty-two players successfully clears the level, I will release all the players and let everything return to the original state——"

Conan raised his head and looked at the empty virtual sky.

"Although this is a game, it's no joke."

"If you don't change, then you can all die."

Reito Hosou's virtual image is exactly the same as in reality. He is wearing a white coat, yawning, and seems to not care about the threat of Noah's Ark at all. Chiaki Nanami next to him is a little confused.

The two internal test players stand out from the public test players, not only in terms of strength, but also in terms of height...

"Well, let the game begin."

Dr. Baosheng said impatiently.

"Noah's Ark, watch me clear the level with one life!"

Chapter 519 The Game Begins

"The screen of this game will be broadcast live to the adults outside. Everyone will be able to see your performance clearly, so no matter what your thoughts are, you must act."

Noah's Ark ignored what Housheng Reito said and continued talking to himself.

"This game has a total of five game copies. Clearing any copy counts as your victory."

"First, the Roman Gladiators who used the transformation between sword and knife to fight against the terrifying swordsmen in the dangerous Roman Colosseum, and defeated all the enemies with their own strength and skills."

A picture appeared next to a portal. It was a scene of a man wearing blood-red armor, holding a large sword and a large shield, and leisurely blocking the continuous attacks of the gods and demons as if he was walking in the garden.

"Second, use wisdom and skills to gradually remove the seal of King Solomon in the mysterious ruins, and in the battle of wits and courage with nightmares, seek the ancient secret treasure [Solomon's Treasure]."

A picture appeared next to a portal. This time it showed a pink-haired girl in a school uniform, standing on a fast-moving stone platform, moving towards a collapsed passage ahead.

“Third, using your reaction and judgment skills to continuously surpass those famous racers in history on the fast-paced racing track and finally cross the finish line to win the Dakar Rally.”

A picture appeared next to a portal, showing a young man in a black coat sitting on a racing car with black as the main color, speeding at high speed with the help of his extraordinary reaction speed.

"Fourth, using macro thinking and wisdom, on a pirate ship in turbulent waves, he took the pirates of various pirate groups for his own use, and finally created an unprecedented pirate group, the [Viking Pirates]."

A picture appeared next to a portal, and this time two people were highlighted in the picture, one was a girl sitting at the command post at the top, and the other was a boy commanding the pirates on the deck.

"Fifth, using logic and reasoning, in the old London of the late 19th century, the true identity of Jack the Ripper, who was confirmed by the DNA tracing system, was found, and he was convicted of the crime."

The last portal appeared on the screen. Facing this key game that had been mentioned many times by Genkou and Kudo Yusaku, Conan and Nanatsuki Koshimizu both perked up, but they were secretly surprised that the script had changed again.

Because Reito Hosho said that during the internal beta test, the game script of Old London changed from [Investigating the true identity of Jack the Ripper] to [Investigating the truth about the Hound of the Baskervilles]. Why did it change back now?

This time the scene is in the smoky old London. Between the young man in school uniform and the detective holding a pipe stands a doctor in a white coat with a wild laugh.

"Isn't this you?"

Nanami Chiaki asked in a low voice, to which Baosheng Reito just snorted coldly. He was going to become a new era Kami, so what was wrong with laughing wildly? I didn't eat your rice!

At this time, Thomas Sindorra in the game control room was stunned. He blinked in disbelief and asked the staff next to him to replay the words that Noah's Ark had just said when introducing old London.

[Find out the true identity of Jack the Ripper, who was confirmed by the DNA tracing system, and have him convicted. ]
