Chapter 785 Im sick, very sick(1/2)
Game world, old London.
Conan and Holmes ran wildly until they completely pushed away any possible pursuers behind them.
Running into an alley, Holmes stopped.
"Why?"
"I treated you like that, but why did you choose to save me?"
Conan looked up at his "father" with a smile on his face.
"No matter what, you are my idol."
"I can't help but look at you."
At this time, Conan's heart was also very complicated.
Although he knew it was just a game, he could not watch Holmes being beaten to death by the police no matter what.
Regardless of the era and background, this is a bad end for Conan.
What's more, the face model of Sherlock Holmes is his old father, Kudo Yusaku.
However, Conan's decision to save Holmes was not a completely emotional decision, but also a rational decision.
"Actually, when we entered that room, we were already eliminated."
"But at this moment, Moriarty appeared."
"Actually, Moriarty doesn't have to show up."
Conan's eyes were calm and he said something meaningful to Holmes.
Holmes stared at Conan closely, his face serious, and did not respond immediately.
Although Conan has some personal feelings mixed in with his personal decisions.
But in terms of logical thinking, Conan did follow Qin Zhibo's teachings and regarded everything in front of him as a game.
Since this is a game, Sherlock Holmes, Moriarty, and Lestrade are all NPCs controlled by the system.
The story that happens between NPCs is called the game plot.
In other words, no matter how brilliant Moriarty's reasoning for discovering Holmes is, as long as Moriarty doesn't appear there, there are ten thousand reasons why it won't appear there.
Everything is a system choice.
Moriarty does not exist.
Sherlock Holmes doesn't exist either.
There is only one.
"It's really you, isn't it?"
"Noah's Ark."
Conan's eyes were as clear as water, he looked up at Holmes and continued.
"The informant in the city that Moriarty refers to is actually not 'someone', but 'everyone'."
"For you who have completely controlled this game, all game NPCs are your spies, and you can control our actions at all times."
"Even Hideki Morohoshi, he is also you, right?"
A trace of surprise flashed across Holmes's face.
"Kudo Yusaku" had a puzzled expression on his face, which made Conan feel happy, and then a confident smile appeared on his face.
"It is impossible for a football boy not to be interested in football a hundred years ago."
"Also, when you passed by Big Ben, you were the first to discover the problem with the clock. You just wanted to remind us of its meaning."
Conan still remembered the scene at that time, but he did not choose to show his cards right away.
Qin Zhibo should have noticed this with his meticulous observation.
"Although you have put us in various dangers, you actually don't want to eliminate us."
"The best evidence is that you arranged for Moriarty to appear who can help us."
"It's not your purpose to wipe out Japan's second and third generations and let Japan rebuild, right?"
Under Conan's rigorous reasoning, Holmes' serious expression gradually relaxed.
"Congratulations, you said it right."
"I am Noah's Ark, and so is that child."
Conan frowned and was about to breathe a sigh of relief when Holmes changed the subject.
"But the game still has to continue. You must clear the game before you can leave here."
As soon as these words came out, Conan frowned again.
"why is that?"
"Isn't your purpose through this game to help players learn to grow on their own without relying on their parents?"
Although Conan has no conclusive evidence to clarify the true purpose of Noah's Ark, after perceptual speculation, Conan feels that it should be like this.
But Holmes shook his head and said with a smile: "It's easy to change a country, but it's hard to change one's nature."
“The only lesson humanity has learned from history is that it has learned no lessons from history.”
"I don't think that a game can bring about great changes in people's temperament and concepts."
"What's more, apart from this game, the vast majority of players have been eliminated early in their respective games."
"If the only thing that can have a profound impact is the oldest and strongest human emotion - fear."
"Only the fear of the unknown can bring long-lasting effects."
"What do you think?"
"Kudo Shinichi."
Sherlock Holmes, or Noah's Ark, made Conan stunned.
The first few aphorisms can be understood as the knowledge learned by AI through deep learning on the Internet.
But behind
How did it know that I am Kudo Shinichi!
Facing the shocked Conan, Holmes' face returned to wisdom and he explained.
"Actually, in addition to deep learning, I also have another special technology, which is DNA tracking technology."
"I extracted your DNA information, and it highly matches Kudo Yusaku's DNA, confirming the father-son relationship."
"So you are Kudo Shinichi."
Conan:(⊙⊙)
What kind of technology is this that is beyond its time!
Now there is good news and bad news before Conan.
Good news, a free and painless paternity test showed that I am indeed Kudo Yusaku’s son.
Bad news, unexpected identity exposure, this conversation is over as soon as it becomes public.
Tomorrow's headlines - Edogawa Conan = Kudo Shinichi!
Holmes seemed to have guessed what Conan was thinking, and said: "The conversation here cannot be heard outside now, I have blocked them."
“But I’m going to unblock it soon.”
Conan's expression changed and he quickly asked: "What is your purpose?"
Holmes thought for a moment before replying meaningfully.
"I'm sick, very sick, just like that girl named Mao Lilan."
"sick?"
Conan's brain reacted and he immediately asked, "What disease?"
"What does this have to do with Xiaolan!"
Although Conan's tone was almost shouting, Holmes's eyes suddenly flickered unnaturally.
"Kid, do you want to stop Jack the Ripper?"
"I can help you."
Holmes's words do not have much real emotion, and are very much like a conversation with a fool NPC that only contains Yes or No.
Conan's eyes were a little disappointed, because this meant that he was back to the normal plot content.
Of course, it is still possible that Noah's Ark is controlling Holmes.
But as long as Noah's Ark doesn't want to talk to itself, no one in this world can force it.
