Conan’s Corpse Picker

   Chapter 929 929 [Noah, run quickly]

   In front of Rice Flower Municipal Building.

   Kudo Yusaku and Dr. Aga are ignorant of the malicious gaze from the dark.

  The two walked down the red carpet and entered the hall under the flash of flashes one after another.

  …

   Finish the security check.

  Dr. A Li looked back at the lively scene and whispered to Kudo Yusaku next to him with a smile: "It's really good, after today's work, you can reunite with your family - Shinichi must miss you very much."

   Kudo Yusaku was also in a good mood. He gestured to his old friend with a silent voice: "Our relationship should be kept secret. Also, try to call him by his current name in the future."

   Dr. A Li nodded cheerfully: "Don't worry, I have the numbers."

The staff next to    saw Yusaku Kudo and quickly walked up to him.

   Dr. A Li saw that someone was approaching, and as expected, he closed his mouth and didn't talk about this topic again. And secretly gave Kudo Yusaku a thumbs up to show his reliability.

   Kudo Yusaku paused for a while, but finally left with the staff without saying anything.

   He has to speak at today's press conference later. .

   Kudo Yusaku came to this conference not only because of his status as an "internationally renowned writer".

   He is also one of the people who gave the detective copy of "Cocoon" this time and provided the game idea.

  …

   In the banquet hall.

  Conan drank juice while watching the people coming and going.

   After a while, I suddenly felt that something was missing around me.

   Seeing the energetic young detective team passing by, Conan was startled and remembered: Jiang Xia seemed to have left for a while, and then he never came back.

  “…” What about people?

   Speaking of which, Haibara Ai doesn't know where she's going... It's not like the two of you are going to hide somewhere else. It's like something they can do...

  Conan looked around suspiciously. Jiang Xia or Hui Yuanai were not found.

   Instead, he saw a very familiar person who was ushered in by the staff through the side door.

  —It was his father, Yusaku Kudo.

  Conan was startled for a moment, and then he heard the applause welcoming Kudo Yusaku in the audience.

   He stopped the steps of "Go and see where Jiang Xia and Hai Yuanai are", stopped, and looked at the stage with pride. …

During   's speech, a person came from behind Conan.

   He turned his head and, as expected, saw Dr. A Li in a formal suit.

  Conan quickly had a guess about the current situation, he asked in a low voice: "You are also involved in the development of this game?"

"Forget it. Your dad helped provide ideas for the game dungeon. I helped them with some finishing touches." Dr. Li touched his pocket, took out an egg-shaped badge from it, and put it in Conan's hand, "Come on, give it to you. Your gift—a small gift from the game party."

  Conan held the badge and was stunned for a moment, but he didn't expect to get this too.

But soon, he remembered the juvenile detectives who passed by just now, and sighed: "But I can't leave them behind and go in by myself." Anyway, it's going to go on sale soon, and then buy a game cabin and go home and play slowly, also the same…

   As for this time…

  Conan held the delicate badge and struggled for a moment, feeling that it would not be fair to give it to any child.

   Finally, I thought about it: Why don't you just give it to Jiang Xia.

  Jiangxia just likes to play games, and he plays very well. And when the time comes, the game content will be broadcast in the movie hall - watching the masters show off their skills is more interesting than watching a few children rookie peck each other.

  …

   Dr. Ali saw Conan hesitate, thinking that he was not interested in games.

Dr.    whispered: "You'll regret it if you don't go, this is a game set in London at the end of the 19th century, a hundred years ago." ... And there is also a new favorite Sherlock Holmes. In addition, there are some small easter eggs about the setting of the identities of Sherlock Holmes, Watson and Irene.

   "London at the end of the 19th century?" Conan muttered helplessly, "Dad really likes that era. But as a game for children, this is not suitable..."

  The surroundings suddenly became dark.

   In the entire banquet hall, only a beam of lights remained on the stage.

   At this point, Yusaku Kudo's speech has ended. The presentation has proceeded to the next stage.

  —On the stage, an egg-shaped game cabin slowly rose from the ground.

  …

  The staff began to introduce this amazing machine:

   "This is the epoch-making game console - 'Cocoon'!

   "After the player enters it, it will take over the player's various senses. Whether it is sight, touch, smell or smell, all the senses are very real. The player will be in a 'different world'.

   "The realization of this 'time and space shuttle' is to use a weak current to stimulate the user's central nervous system, which is not only harmless to the body, but also relieves brain fatigue."

   The staff in charge of the introduction did not know if this was true.

   However, since it is written in the manual and the device has passed the safety test, it should not be a big problem.

   When everyone admires the "cocoon" in the beam of light.

   Thomas Syndora, who was dormant in the dark, opened his eyes.

   He held the stopwatch and walked quickly to his silence destination.

  …

   On the other side, the outer layer of the less scientific pattern space.

   In a quiet blue "sea water".

   Jiang Xia glanced down at the octopus-like tentacles on his body, the corners of his eyes twitched slightly:

   If there is another time, I must find a way to get some charcoal fire in, and put the guy in the back on a fork and roast it. Make her love to be an octopus so much...

   The tentacles with too many elements make people feel nauseated for a while. This "Nail Household" stationed outside the tattoo space seems to understand all his aesthetic minefields and step on the spot with precision.

  ...Fortunately, for the convenience of speaking, the part outside Jiang Xia's field of vision did not turn into the entanglement of tentacles.

   The human girl's face was smooth and delicate, and she slowly rubbed against him like a spoiled child. The last second, the woman was still using her mother's tone to condemn her from the top, but at this time her voice softened and she said aggrievedly: "Come take advantage of me, shouldn't you give me something good?"

   While speaking, those ugly tentacles slowly descended, inserted into the "sea water", and gradually penetrated... approaching the tattoo space.

  The further down she can reach, the slower she moves.

   In the end, it seemed to be involved in a mass of cement that was about to solidify, and it was only a few meters into the "sea water", and was forced to stop.

   The woman sighed softly. The tentacle tip struggled and twisted, scratching lightly on the invisible barrier.

Her tone was still weak, but her red eyes were dyed with anxiety, and there was a trace of jealousy in her voice that could not be concealed: "Let me in... What's wrong with me being your ghost? You are willing to even those wastes. want."

   "..." Jiang Xiaquan didn't hear it, and looked up at the sky at a forty-five degree angle.

   After Noah left the "London" space, his ability to recognize the way was too poor. How long would it take to find such a short distance.

   The tentacles are really "sticky"...
