 The others heard his suggestion and nodded.

 —At present, apart from "Sherlock Holmes" and the "disappearing mysterious man", there is really no other better clue...

 …

at the same time.

 In the control room outside the game.

 On the screen, the images of each copy are played in turn.

 When it came to the "London Dungeon", it might be because among this group of players, Conan was leading the action throughout the process. Noah seems to like him very much. The camera keeps following Conan. The other companions who are discussing problems together only take a few shots of the back of the head.

So, through the huge screen, a group of anxious adults saw Conan's successive setbacks.

“…To target a primary school student like this, this AI is too harsh.” Mouri Kogoro complained in mutterings.

—As a detective, his sense of murder and the police is much more sensitive than ordinary people. He quickly followed the situation to the control room and joined the others.

After complaining, Mouri Kogoro remembered something and suddenly looked at Kudo Yusaku: "Wait a minute, I remember you gave a speech on stage just now. You are one of the designers of this dungeon - then you should know how to conquer the dungeon."

Kudo Yusaku nodded hesitantly.

 He and Dr. A Li are indeed the designers of this copy.

 But currently, it seems that some details in the game are very different from his impression.

 Especially the mysterious man on the second floor of the coffee shop.

 There is no such role in their design.

Yusaku Kudo: "..." Speaking of which, since Noah can hijack the game and is an artificial intelligence with its own ideas, it may realize that the group of adults outside are planning to "cheat".

but…

  Kudo Yusaku glanced at the silent speaker from the corner of his eye: He didn’t know whether Noah was busy with other things and didn’t notice the conversation here, or whether he confidently felt that even if the adults cheated, it would not affect its plan...

 Yusaku Kudo always feels that this plan of "giving the guide, the children follow the guide, and complete the copy" may not go well.

 …but it’s better than doing nothing.

"Try to establish communication." With this thought, Kudo Yusaku turned to Dr. Agasa, "I can't help here. Let's go outside to get some air."

—Dr. Ali participated in the later game construction and is more knowledgeable about various "strategies" than he, the person who proposed the story ideas.

 It's of no use if both of you stay here.

So Kudo Yusaku decided to leave the control room temporarily and go to the crime scene and other places in the Mihua Municipal Building to find out the truth about the death of Kenmura Nakabin.

In Kudo Yusaku’s view, Hiroki is the maker of Noah. No matter how you look at what Noah is doing now, it seems like he is using AI to help Hiroki "get justice."

 The murdered Jiancun Zhongbin was also Hong Shu’s father. Perhaps he also subtly occupies a place in Noah's heart.

Perhaps if you find the murderer yourself, you can alleviate Noah's anger and win some opportunities to talk...or at least prevent him from deliberately making things difficult for players in the game.

Although I don’t know if “Noah” has such a thing as “anger”, you must try your best in everything and give it a try to know whether you can succeed.

 …

 In the game.

The weather was wet and cold, and a group of players gathered on the stone bridge near the starting point, studying what to do next.

Although they had decided to go to 221 Baker Street to find "Holmes", when they actually implemented it, they discovered that it was not easy to find a specific street in this unfamiliar neighborhood.    —There is no map and no enthusiastic NPC to ask for directions.

In the end, they had no choice but to wander around the assassination point, trying to find any landmark buildings nearby for positioning.

 Just when a group of people were discussing the route.

 In the sky, Dr. Ali's excited voice suddenly sounded: "It's clear!"

“?!” Everyone on the bridge was startled and looked to the sky in surprise.

Conan recognized the voice and asked doubtfully: "Dr. Ali?"

“It’s me!” Dr. Ali is worthy of being a black technology giant. His efforts quickly bore fruit—he successfully connected to the voices of internal players while Noah wasn’t paying attention.

Dr. Ali quickly revealed the spoiler: "The rules of this level are that once you are seriously injured, or trapped by the enemy and unable to escape, you will be eliminated. Your current location is the Whitechapel area of ​​​​Easterview, along the Take the road on Xiaolan's left and walk straight for about 5 kilometers, and you will reach the 'helper's' residence!"

 Hideki Morohoshi’s face, Noah quietly mingled among the players: “…”

 …Such a simple game, but you still need to cheat!

 Dirty lord!

 …

 A group of players are listening to the spoilers attentively.

At this moment, the stone bridge under their feet suddenly trembled, and a gap cracked in the middle.

Immediately afterwards, the crack suddenly expanded, and the stone bridge collapsed from the middle with a huge roar.

 Due to the existence of a certain buffer time, the collapse starts from the cracks and progresses step by step. Most of the players reacted and rushed to the side in a thrilling way to reach a stable place.

 Only one little fat man ran slower. With a scream of terror, his feet fell into the air and he suddenly fell into the bottomless darkness below. But before he was out, the nearest young detective team suddenly stretched out a hand and grabbed him.

Several other people also rushed forward and pulled the person up with all their hands.

 …

  Noah stood nearby and looked at this scene in surprise.

Although it did not intend to actually kill fifty players, it did not expect that these children would have such a conscience of sacrificing themselves to save others.

It stood nearby with a somewhat complicated expression, as if it was trying to observe something, digesting it quietly, and imitating it secretly.

This kind of onlooker behavior is a bit inconsistent among a group of happy friends.

But fortunately, Noah chose a good appearance - as an arrogant and **** second generation, it is not abnormal that Noah did not join in these "cheap friendships of civilians" in time.

 …

 Players were originally vaguely divided into two groups.

—Mao Lilan and other civilians who "sneaked into" this experience, as well as several second-generation people who followed "Hideki Morohoshi" into the London dungeon, but didn't know what to do, so they had to subconsciously follow another group of people.

 Now, I have experienced this. With the little fat man in the second generation being rescued, the atmosphere among the players became much more harmonious.

  Although Noah has long seen similar interactions from various news, some animated films, and even surveillance cameras.

 But across the cold machines and data, watch from a distance with God’s perspective. It's a completely different feeling than being there and immersed like I am now.

   …”The game is really fun.
