Chapter 350: Not only is there a logout button, there isn’t even a menu?
In a dark space, a platform similar to a square suddenly appeared. Beams of light fell from the sky, and figures appeared here one after another.
Yuya opened his eyes and immediately looked at two figures in the crowd who were obviously much taller than him - Mouri Ran and Miyano Shiho.
Of course, Mouri Ran is her own appearance, but Miyano Shiho... fortunately, she is still wearing a camouflage mask.
It seems that Noah's Ark also noticed something and deliberately forged a face for her?
I looked at Conan again and saw that he looked like a little child.
Hideki Moroboshi and some of his friends were also there - of course, Hideki Moroboshi has been replaced by Hiroki Sawada now, right?
Very good, almost the same opening as in the original book.
As a rainbow-colored ring of light flashed, an electronically synthesized voice sounded in the air: "Welcome to all friends who are experiencing the cocoon for the first time, the game is about to begin!"
As soon as he finished speaking, five stone doors appeared around the square where everyone was standing, and behind each of the stone doors there was a road extending out.
"My name is Noah's Ark, please give me your guidance!"
The children excitedly raised their hands and shouted to the sky: "Please give me your advice!"
"Next, I will play five game scenes, and you can choose any one you want to play."
"But, there is one thing you need to pay attention to. This is a game that concerns your life, so you must be careful!"
The forty-nine people in the game, plus everyone listening outside, all showed stunned expressions.
“If everyone is out, I will release special electromagnetic waves to destroy your brains so that you can’t return to the real world.
However, as long as one of you can pass the level, you will win and everyone can go back."
Under the questioning of Kudo Yusaku, Noah's Ark revealed the intention of his action.
"Seeing these kids grow up, I'm afraid they will become the same people as their dirty elders in the future? Dirty politicians, doctors who only care about making money and don't care about the safety of their patients..."
"If you want to change Neon's future, you must completely sever this connection!"
"Stop joking!" Maori Kogoro pounded the table angrily, "What right do you have to play with human life?"
"I really didn't," Noah's Ark's voice was a little low and cold, "Just like adults have no right to play with Hongshu's life."
"Okay," Noah's Ark seemed not to want to say anything more, and his voice became cheerful, "The children can't wait any longer, let's take a look at the game scene."
"The first is pirates... The second is cross-country racing... The third is the ancient Roman Colosseum... The fourth is Solomon's treasure..."
"The last one, London in the old days...Here, you will face the former murderer Jack the Ripper, and rely on everyone's strength to bring him to justice..."
Yuya and Conan immediately turned their gaze to the stone gate that was showing the scene of London.
“If everyone is eliminated, will we really die?” Most of the children had expressions of fear on their faces.
"Why do we have to encounter such bad luck?" someone began to complain.
"I didn't volunteer to be your father's child..." There are also such remarks made by filial sons.
"I don't want to die. Is there anyone who can save me?" Some people were already crying.
"Brother Yuya, are we going to die?" Ayumi pulled on Yuya's clothes.
Yuya bent down and touched her little head to comfort her, "It won't happen as long as I'm here."
"Yeah!" Ayumi nodded vigorously.
Genta and Mitsuhiko also breathed a sigh of relief. Indeed, Yuya's brother is so good at solving cases and fighting. With him around, completing any game should not be a problem, right?
"Look at that big brother!" Suddenly a little girl pointed at Youye and shouted, "I know him, he's a famous high school detective! He can definitely help us pass the game!"
"Yeah, yeah, I know him too!"
"Ah, my dad mentioned him too, but told me to stay away..."
"I've heard that he's great at solving cases!"
Yuya was stunned for a moment. In the blink of an eye, he was surrounded by a group of little kids. They kept calling him "Brother Yuya" left and right, making him lose himself in his role as the big brother.
Some of them came over because they knew Youya and felt like they had found someone to rely on, while others came because they saw how much others believed in Youya, so they followed suit.
Anyway, You was also surrounded.
Even though they are all little brats, it seems like it’s a good feeling to be trusted by others.
Is there a strange topic mixed in in the middle? Little boy, did your father do something wrong that makes him afraid of the detective?
Conan felt a little envious for a moment. If he could come in using the appearance of Kudo Shinichi, he would probably receive the same treatment as Yuya, right?
After all, Kudo Shinichi is quite famous!
Noah’s Ark: “…”
It seemed that something unexpected had happened. Shouldn't this famous detective have been allowed in? He had never expected that this man could gain the trust of so many little brats.
But he came in to look for clues about the murderer. In order to expose Sindora's true identity, he couldn't stop...
It was a wrong decision. I should have made him look like a child like Kudo Shinichi, but it's too late to change it now.
"Okay, time is almost up, everyone choose the game you want to enter."
As soon as the words fell, a water curtain like an electric current lit up in the stone gate.
Noah's Ark looked at the crowd surrounding Yuya as he walked towards the London game scene, and added: "In addition, each game scene can only have a maximum of ten people, and the extra people will be randomly teleported to other scenes."
Yuya:... Why do I suddenly feel like I'm being targeted?
Noah's Ark didn't want to either, but if it didn't say that, I'm afraid all fifty people would have entered the London scene.
How to play then?
There was no other way. In order to avoid his people being forced to disperse and too many people would cause chaos and uncontrollable situations, he did not take care of the meals for so many little brats.
Youye had no choice but to comfort these little brats, telling them to believe in themselves and that since they were already here, they should just play the game well. Finally, he led his friends into the London scene.
Passing through the light curtain with his eyes closed, Youya felt his body lose weight for a moment, and the next second he was standing on solid ground again.
He opened his eyes and found himself standing on a shady stone street.
There was heavy smog suspended in the air around us, unpleasant smells kept coming into our noses in the depressing atmosphere, and gray-black clouds hung on the horizon.
Is this London in the late 19th century?
Seeing a shallow pool of water under his feet, Youye raised his foot and stepped lightly.
In an instant, ripples spread across the water as he moved.
Youya narrowed his eyes. It was not until he actually entered the game that he realized that everything he saw and felt here seemed to be exactly the same as in the real world, as if he had really traveled through time and space to London a hundred years ago.
This is a bit too awesome... Yuya secretly admired it. No wonder Noah's Ark had to self-destruct at the end of the movie. This kind of thing is really too advanced.
But no matter how realistic it all seemed, Youya knew clearly in his heart that this was not the real world.
Thinking of this, Youya tentatively raised his hand and drew it in the air... nothing happened.
I swiped up and down again, still no response.
So he tried adding the password:
"system?"
"menu?"
"system?"
"Menu?"
"System menu?"
Youye was silent. Doesn't this game have a menu?
People next to him: ???
"Yuya..." Miyano Shiho was a little worried and couldn't help but reach out and touch his forehead, "Are you okay?"
