Chapter 312: Duel! Baker Street! (xvii) Night

"What do you know about Jack the Ripper?" When everyone heard this, they were stunned for a moment.

Conan didn't speak, just looked at Asa Feather with blazing eyes.

"I don't know much about this kind of case from a hundred years ago." Asa Yu pondered for a while, and then smiled bitterly, "I only know that between August and November 1888, at least five women were murdered in the Whitechapel district of London, and most of them died in a very tragic state. In addition, during the commission of the crime, the murderer also wrote to the relevant units many times to provoke, but he was never brought to justice. This bold modus operandi was repeatedly exaggerated by the media at the time, which caused great panic in British society at the time, and he is still one of the most notorious killers in European and American culture. Speaking of this, Asa Yu sighed, "Of course, this also has something to do with the British system at the time. ”

"Jack the Ripper committed almost all of his crimes near Whitechapel in London's East End, where we were." Conan pondered for a moment and said slowly. "At that time, it was a well-known distribution center for immigrants, with nearly tens of thousands of immigrants from Russia and Eastern Europe living here, and the security can be imagined. But ......"

"It feels horrible." After listening to Conan and Asaba's words, Ayumi shrank in fear.

"Although London at the end of the century is known as the last glorious era of the British Empire," said Gray Yuan in a cold tone, "it was a time when there was a huge gap between the rich and the poor, the methods of crime were murderous, and the hearts of the people were sinister. In other words, we have actually come to a very dangerous place. ”

"I've heard Shinichi say that if Sherlock Holmes is compared to the light of the times, then Jack the Ripper is the shadow of darkness." Xiaolan on the side patted her head lightly and said, "There is still ......"

"In that case, let's hurry to the light of the times." Conan said with a smile, inadvertently interrupting Xiaolan's words, "Baker Street is almost here!" ”

“...... Well, that's right. Xiaolan didn't care about being interrupted, she just thought that Conan was in the idea of a child and wanted to rush to Baker Street as soon as possible, thinking of this, Xiaolan couldn't help but snicker slightly in her heart, don't look at how mature Conan is, in fact, he is just a child.

Asaba, who was walking beside Conan, sighed softly.

He naturally knew the reason why Conan interrupted Xiaolan.

That sentence is indeed said by Shinichi, but there is still a following sentence in that sentence.

"Shadows of darkness? Perhaps. On the sofa, the young man in the black shirt pushed his gold-rimmed glasses and said lightly, "However, behind this, I think there is an object that creates this shadow, right?" Darkness is not terrible, it is the people who create it that are terrible. Just like ......." Speaking of this, the young man laughed self-deprecatingly, "Someone who is exactly the same title as me." ”

"Here you go again." On the other side, the young man in the blue suit put down the newspaper in his hand, sighed, and then said with a wry smile, "How many times have I said it, I just habitually complain, do you always want to contact yourself?" That thing...... It's all gone, and you can't live in hatred for the rest of your life, right? Even if you want to find someone to take revenge, you have to know who killed the uncle......" Speaking of this, the young man paused, and a trace of remorse appeared on his face.

"Shinichi!" Beside the young man, a beautiful girl angrily hammered the young man's back, "You damn mouth! If you want me to say how much I remembered last time! Then he looked at the cold-faced young man opposite, and sighed lightly, "Charlotte......."

"It's okay." The black-shirted boy sitting on the opposite side of the sofa slowly took a sip of coffee, his tone still faint, "I have long forgotten about that incident." ”

“...... How do you look like you've forgotten? The young man in blue smiled bitterly.

......

When the group walked out of the alley and came to the main road completely, everyone slowly breathed a sigh of relief, as if they had been walking through the dark alley for a long time, and everyone became panicked.

But just when everyone breathed a sigh of relief, a homeless man came on the other side of the street.

The homeless man was tall, wearing a tattered overcoat, and on his head he wore an equally tattered hat with a wide brim, the wide brim of the hat and the messy beard on his face almost completely obscured his countenance, and even made one wonder how he could see the way. The homeless man still had an old accordion in his hand, and as he walked, he played the piano and hummed something from time to time.

"Beware of Jack the Ripper...... Be careful of Jack the Ripper...... "When he walked in front of Conan and the others, he looked at everyone with a smile, and the children couldn't help but retreat in fright, and even Conan's face changed slightly, only the light feather face was as usual.

When he saw this homeless man, Qianyu felt a little strange in his heart, as if this person had some familiar feelings, more like he had forgotten something, and, at the moment when the homeless man raised his head and looked at his others, he raised his head, allowing Qianyu to see his face for a moment. However, a very ordinary face has no resemblance to anyone he knows.

"Beware of Jack the Ripper....... He is waiting for you in the dark night......" The homeless man hummed a frightening song to himself, and faded away, "If you don't want to die, you have to be covered in blood......

"What does that mean?" Ju Chuan, one of the children of several nobles, was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help but ask, "Didn't you say anything?" ”

"Does that mean, before being killed, kill the other party first?" Zhuxing said slowly.

Covered in blood...... Conan frowned, what this NPC-like character of the game said, I don't think it's useless, right? But are there NPCs in this world? Or is everyone else an NPC besides us?

The real world.

Metal detectors are available at the venue. Looking at the inspection equipment at the entrance of the venue, Yusaku wandered unconsciously in the venue, and the murderer ...... How did you bring the murder weapon in?

Suddenly, he stopped his gaze on the group of bronze statues on the side, looking at the metal sword in the bronze statue's hand, thoughtful.

"How can such a precious thing be placed in such a place?" At that time, the voice of a certain teenager once again echoed in Yusaku's heart.

"What if....... Is the murder weapon itself something inside the venue? Thinking of this, Yusaku's eyes lit up slightly.

If so......

Game world.

"That's what it is...... 221B Baker Street, right? Standing in front of the door of an apartment, Xiaolan looked at the "221B" number hanging on the quaint door, and was slightly nervous, but she still mustered up her courage, slowly stepped forward, and knocked lightly on the door.

"That's what it is...... Where does Sherlock Holmes live? Asa Yu's eyes moved slightly.
