Chapter 527: The Return of Naruhodō Ryunosuke

"…something is not right. Holmes disappeared with Watson just like in the original plot. The original excuse for his disappearance was the Hound of the Baskervilles incident. So what happened this time?"

Xiang Yuanguang stood in the viewing seat, stroking his chin and watching the live broadcast on the screen.

"The Hound of the Baskervilles incident should have been resolved. If the public beta storyline continues the internal beta storyline, then it's not surprising that Hosho Reito will be shot, because he knows too much, and he must be silenced."

"But who is the so-called professor? If the Hound of the Baskervilles case is solved and Klimt Vanziks' true identity is revealed, then there should be no second person using the title of professor."

"Could it be that Noah's Ark created a new character named [James Moriarty] to take over the title of professor? Then...who would James Moriarty be based on?"

The blue hedgehog head stroked his chin, with some confusion in his eyes.

Suddenly, Xiang Yuanguang's attention fell on the virtual diving cabin where Conan was.

A faint light was flickering. It was not the light caused by the activation of the game cabin, but the light of the magatama.

The magatama was flashing, could it be that the spiritual connection had been activated? But... why didn't he see any effect?

"Muroboshi, are we really going to go find that famous lawyer Naruhodō according to what the newspaper says?"

The two young men from a prominent family were a little hesitant. The requirement for passing through Old London was to find the true identity of Jack the Ripper and prove his guilt. So they should look for a prosecutor, why a lawyer?
Hideki Moroboshi, the leader of the three, smiled, took out a coin from his pocket, stretched out his hand and flicked it. The coin flew up and then fell into his palm.

"Of course we have to look for Naruhodō Ryunosuke now. Anyway, Jack the Ripper has those guys who call themselves the Junior Detectives to find him, so we will be responsible for resolving the obstacles in the courtroom—————"

"For example, first eliminate the lawyer who is most likely to successfully defend Jack the Ripper in court."

……is that so?
The two boys looked at each other and recalled what they had read in the newspaper.

Naruhodō Ryunosuke, a defense lawyer from Japan, once worked with the great detective Sherlock Holmes and intern doctor Hosho Reito to ensure that the then Supreme Judge Hart Walters was put on public trial.

However, it is said that Naruhodō Ryunosuke's companion, Reito Hosho, used a lot of illegal means to deal with Heart Voltex, and was eventually deported back to Japan. He is now returning to Old London for unknown reasons.

There is no doubt that the Hosho Reito mentioned in the newspaper is the original internal test player, the guy who was sniped and almost died just after leaving the birth point. No wonder his clothes automatically switched to a white coat when he entered the game.

At the port not far away, a ferry slowly docked.

A black-haired young man wearing a black school uniform and a samurai sword on his waist appeared in the sight of the three people. After this black-haired young man appeared, a girl in a pink kimono also appeared with luggage.

"In the real world, the item that proves one's identity as a lawyer is the [Lawyer's Medal]."

There was a somewhat evil smile on Hideki Moroboshi's lips.

“But at the end of the 19th century, the prop that proved one’s lawyer status was the [lawyer’s armband].”

The young men from noble families shifted their attention, finally landing on Naruhodō Ryunosuke's shoulder.

"In other words, even if you are a barrister, if you lose this, you will not be recognized as a lawyer."

"So, we just need to get rid of the other side's lawyer's armband, and the trial of Jack the Ripper will proceed smoothly."

Hideki Moroboshi, wearing a red dress, tossed the coin in her hand again.

However, this time he did not catch the coin, but just let it fall to the ground.

he said with a smile.

"So, what are you waiting for? No matter what method you use, as long as you can solve this problem, you will be halfway successful."——————

Blah, blah, blah.

The suitcase was being dragged, and Naruhodō Ryunosuke quickened his pace anxiously.

On the ferry from Japan to London, he received a telegram from Alice Watson.

This telegram explicitly mentioned the reappearance of the Hound of the Baskervilles and the disappearance of Sherlock Holmes.

Therefore, Ryunosuke Naruhodō, who was worried about whether Mr. Holmes was really a casualty, had an extremely hard time on the ship during those few days. The reporters on the ship thought that he had come to London to do something big again and sent a telegram to the newspaper.

"Master Naruhodō, if it's Master Nag Sherlock Holmes, there will be no problem!"

Although he was wearing a very cumbersome kimono and carrying a suitcase that was obviously larger than Wright's, Susado was able to keep up with Wright's pace very quickly, just lagging behind a little on purpose.

"...Ah, if that's the case..."

Naruhodō had a headache as he recalled what happened at Mr. Hatch's pawn shop at night.

Because the incident was so sudden, Mr. Holmes, who rushed the fastest, was shot and sent to the hospital for emergency treatment.

Even Mr. Holmes, who seems to be omnipotent, is helpless when faced with emergencies.

"Anyway, let's meet up with Miss Alice at the designated location first..."

"When I mention the term Reichenbach Falls, I always have a bad feeling."

Naruhodō was completely oblivious to the three pickpockets approaching quietly.

However, the Demon Hunting Sword on Naruhodō's waist came into the sight of the three pickpockets.

A young man from a noble family widened his eyes. He seemed to have seen this samurai sword before...

It seemed, it seemed that when the food was just being prepared in the banquet hall, there was a lawyer wearing this samurai sword.

If the game deliberately gives plot characters special props that are exactly the same as real people, does that mean that the personality and image of this plot character are similar to those of the real person... ?
(In that case, Naruhodō Ryunosuke's real-life counterpart is the famous lawyer Mukai Genmitsu?)

The young man from a noble family slowed down his pace, and Hideki Moroboshi quickly pulled the lawyer's armband off Naruhodō's arm, turned around and ran, which immediately scared Naruhodō.

"Hey, this... this is worthless...?!"

Naruhodō Ryunosuke's voice failed to stop Hideki Moroboshi and the other young man from a prominent family.

Watching the two boys walk away, Naruhodō was stunned. He and Shousa exchanged a glance, and each could see the shock in the other's eyes. I haven't been to London for a few months, and a pickpocket even wants this? !

Without saying anything more, Naruhodō pushed the suitcase in his hand towards Susado and immediately chased in the direction where Moroboshi Hideki and the others had left, vowing to get his lawyer's armband back.

Shousado took Naruhodō's suitcase, looked at his own suitcase, and then looked at the young man next to him who seemed to have something to say, with some doubt in his eyes.

"Excuse me...are you from London...?"

The young man from a distinguished family, Takizawa Shinya, who had not left, fell silent.

"No, I'm not from London. Apparently I know that... I have something I want to tell you."
