Chapter 351 Prologue
Yuya was a little embarrassed, and he coughed and explained: "I'm fine, I just wanted to see if there is a menu or something..."
"Menu? You must have played too many RPGs." Conan said with disdain, "This is an immersive holographic simulation game. How can it be the same as an ordinary game?"
You was also shocked: "You can't even beat Kun in a game, why do you look down on me?"
"Didn't you say before that you were a chicken who practiced for two and a half years? Who is A Kun?" Conan was helpless to complain. What's wrong with this guy? Did he hit his brain when he entered the game?
But according to Jian's introduction, they entered the game consciously. Could it be that the extracted consciousness was incomplete, causing Yuya to be stupid and idiotic now?
Thinking of this, Conan said with a serious face: "Don't worry, I will complete this game."
Yuya: ??? I don’t know what you are talking about.
Not wanting to bother with Conan, Yuya glanced at the people around him. Apart from his own people, there were Hiroki Sawada who was pretending to be Hideki Moroboshi, Akira Emori, the fat son of the bank president, Susumu Takizawa, the son of a politician, and Seiichiro Kikukawa, the son of a Kyogen master (Kyogen master is one of the Japanese classical dramas).
The same four-member team of Hideki Moroboshi as in the original work.
Eleven people? You also raised an eyebrow. It seemed that what Noah's Ark had just said, that only ten people could enter each game, was indeed aimed at him.
But it's okay, I helped him. Otherwise, if he really had to carry so many burdensome little brats, it would be difficult for him to pass the level.
On the side, Mao Lilan looked around and said with some fear: "This is London, the city of thick fog? Isn't it said to be very romantic? But it looks so weird here!"
In this kind of atmosphere, it doesn't seem strange that a strange thing suddenly appeared from nowhere.
Ayumi agreed, "The air doesn't seem to be very fresh?"
Yuan Tai sniffed his nose and said, "It seems to have a strange smell. It doesn't smell very pleasant."
Conan lowered his head and nimbly dodged Yuya's clutches and hid behind Mao Li Ran. Seeing this, Yuya had to let him go temporarily.
Conan poked his head out and began to explain to everyone: "The fog in London is not just a clean substance formed by the condensation of water vapor, but a mixture of soot produced by burning coal and oil."
Ayumi blinked her eyes cutely and exclaimed in admiration: "Oh, so that's how it is, Conan, you know a lot!"
Conan just touched his head and acted embarrassed...
"what!!!"
It was a woman's scream, and the sound was drawn out, as if she had seen something extremely terrifying.
Conan's face changed: "It's Jack the Ripper!"
Without hesitation, he ran towards the direction where the scream came from.
"Conan!" Everyone was surprised and hurriedly followed.
Miyano Shiho turned around and saw that You was not in a hurry, and was puzzled: "You don't seem to be in a hurry? That's Jack the Ripper..."
Yuya shrugged and said, "It's okay. This should be the prologue chapter of the game. Let's get started with Jack the Ripper's story. Nothing will go wrong."
Miyano Shiho doesn't usually play games, so seeing that Youya is so confident, she is not in a hurry anymore.
The two men were not in a hurry but their pace was not slow, and they soon found the group in an alley.
Conan was seen grabbing his feet and jumping on the spot, shouting in pain.
There was also a corpse nearby with blood oozing from its chest pierced by a sharp blade.
Yuya glanced and saw a large metal can not far away. It seemed that Conan did not expect that his foot-strengthening shoes were ineffective here, and he planned to kick something to subdue Jack the Ripper as usual.
Unfortunately it failed.
As a childhood friend, Youya felt that he should show some concern, so he walked up and asked with concern: "Did you see what Jack the Ripper looked like?"
Conan sighed and said, "No, he was wearing a big windbreaker and a hat, which covered his face so well that I couldn't see it. And the invention the doctor gave me can't be used here, and the tracking glasses and anesthesia watch have become ordinary things."
Yuya said without surprise: "We enter the game with our consciousness, so it's normal that we can't bring in real things. Besides, the target of Noah's Ark is children, and these inventions should not appear on a child."
Conan was a little depressed. Without these equipments, he would be really powerless. What if he had to fight a BOSS later on, wouldn't he be doomed?
His eyes fell on Yuya and he said, "My brain is the only thing I can use right now. If there is a battle, I'll leave it to you."
Youye spread his hands: "Isn't your brain the only thing you have any use for? I didn't expect you to do anything else."
Conan's forehead went dark, and he looked at Yuya speechlessly with his dead eyes.
Just then, I heard a loud noise.
When everyone looked over, they found that a lot of people had gathered here and were surrounding the corpse and talking.
But these people were speaking English, and speaking very fast, so half of them couldn't understand them.
"What are they talking about?"
"It's just a cutscene. It's similar to what you usually hear when you see the onlookers talking at a crime scene." Youya said casually.
"Cutscene... plot?" Yuya's choice of words made everyone silent.
But if you think about it carefully, it seems quite appropriate?
Outside the game, Kudo Yusaku, who had been paying attention to Conan Yuya and others, immediately asked people to switch the language to Neon.
Soon, everyone in the game found that they could understand what these people were saying.
Two policemen pushed through the crowd and walked to the body. One of them observed the situation and said to the other with a serious expression, "Contact Chief Lestrade immediately!"
Lestrade? Conan looked surprised.
The remaining officer began to put up a cordon and everyone was driven away from the scene.
On the stone bridge, Ayumi folded her hands and shivered: "It's so cold..."
Just as Yuya was about to speak, Conan had already taken off his coat and handed it to him: "Put it on quickly."
Ayumi took the clothes with surprise: "Thank you Conan, it's so warm!"
Yuya:? Glancing at Mao Lilan, he found that she didn't have any special expression, but was watching the scene with a smile.
Xiaolan, you may not realize the seriousness of the situation! If you don't take care of Conan, Ayumi might become the... Uh, it doesn't seem like that. Conan shouldn't be a lolita complex? You also secretly thought that he was overthinking.
Seeing this, Mitsuhiko followed suit and took off his coat. He looked at the people around him and found that there were only two girls left - Mouri Ran and Miyano Shiho.
He was about to walk towards the nearest Miyano Shiho when he saw Yuya touching her hand, then taking off his coat and putting it on her.
Mitsuhiko was silent for a moment, thinking that he had made a mistake. Sister Mio already had a boyfriend, so why should he worry about her?
Then he looked at Mao Lilan again, and he felt unwell.
Ran Mao Li had already put on Genta's clothes and was thanking him with a smile on her face.
Mitsuhiko felt like crying but had no tears, so he could only put his clothes back on silently.
Yuya held Miyano Shiho's hands to warm them, then looked down at the black stockings under her short skirt and asked with some concern: "Are your legs cold? Do you want to warm them up?"
Miyano Shiho shook her head decisively: "It's not cold."
Yuya nodded thoughtfully and whispered, "That's right, the ham needs to be refrigerated."
Miyano Shiho raised an eyebrow: "I heard it, huh?"
"Hey!" Youya whistled and looked away.
At this moment, the voice of Dr. Agasa suddenly came from the sky.
Dr. Agasa reminded them that in this game scenario, they would be eliminated if they were injured or caught by the police, and urged them to be careful.
"You are now in the Whitechapel area of Eastview. From...that...sizzle..."
Before Dr. Agasa could finish his words, they turned into a sound of electricity.
Before anyone could react, a series of loud bangs were heard from behind, and the stone bridge began to collapse rapidly.
"Run!" Youya shouted, holding Miyano Shiho with his left hand and picking up Ayumi with his right hand and ran towards the shore.
