People are in Conan, but Ace Attorney

Chapter 541 Death Game
"I want to... play a game with you guys."

The man on the other end of the voice transmitter said, however, this matter was a little incomprehensible to everyone.

They are now in a big game. Are they going to play games within the game?

Then wouldn't their cocoon game be in vain? Can't other games be played in real life?
Yuan Tai spoke loudly and frankly.

"What game? We're here to find someone, not to play games!"

"By the way, who are you? It's very rude not to say your name when you call!"

...This isn't a phone, it's just a one-way voice transmitter.

Haibara Ai next to her shook her head, but she was too lazy to correct Genta's thoughts.

It would be better to leave Dunlun University at this time and find other characters in the story.

As for finding Alice Watson? This place is suspected to be Professor Moriarty's lair.

A high school student and five elementary school students can destroy the lair of a criminal organization? Is it possible? Impossible...

"You are quite right. It is true that I am quite rude on this point."

To Haibara Ai's surprise, a voice responding to Genta actually came from the other side of the voice transmitter.

But this is clearly a one-way voice transmitter...how can it have the function of making phone calls?

She almost subconsciously thought that there was a second voice transmitter nearby, or someone was tipping off.

"Haibara-san, you don't need to understand the game as clearly as we do."

As if she could see the change in Haibara Ai's mood, Ayumi whispered to her.

Suddenly, Huibara Ai's confusion was resolved.

Yes, this is a virtual game. What's the point of changing the appearance of a walkie-talkie to a voice transmitter just for the needs of the plot?
The middle-aged uncle character Dr. Watson was changed to a cute little girl Alice in the plot...

Even if any other unexpected events happened, she would not be surprised anymore.

"Excuse me, my name is...James Moriarty."

The man on the other end of the voice transmitter apologized politely, and then he slowly dropped a bombshell news that surprised everyone—he was Moriarty, who was suspected to be one of the final bosses in this scene!
"Of course, you may also know that my code name is "Professor", and you should also guess whether the disappearance of Holmes and Alice is related to me - yes, it was all done by me."

"Although I cannot return Holmes to you now, as for Alice... you have a chance to rescue her. She is now inside the gymnasium of this university."

Professor Moriarty's words made Huibara Ai's heart tighten. She knew very well... there is no free lunch in the world.

As a criminal mastermind, he would never do anything without thinking. The game Moriarty was talking about was probably a death game involving Alice's life.

Moreover, the location of this death game is most likely where Alice was kidnapped... This is an open conspiracy, and if you want to save people, you must participate in the open conspiracy of the death game.

However, others did not think so much, and Yuantai shouted angrily.

"Okay, watch me rescue Mr. Watson...Miss...in one go!"

As the leader of the Junior Detective Team, Yuan Tai took the lead and rushed to the front.

"Wait, wait, Yuantai, now is not the time to do this!"

Seeing Genta running away, Mitsuhiko stomped his feet and followed Genta without hesitation. While running, he tried to persuade Genta verbally, but this obviously could not convince the Eel Rice Kid.

Seeing that the other two members of the Junior Detective Team had already left, Ayumi followed after saying hello to Haibara Ai and Mao Li Ran, without any concern for Mao Li Ran's call. "…There is no other way. It seems that we have no choice but to go, Xiaolan."

Haibara Ai turned her head to look at the members of the Junior Detective League who hurriedly ran out without even asking the location of the gymnasium. She spoke in a calm voice, and did not look like a child of about ten years old at all.

However, Mouri Ran no longer cares about these things. Anyway, Conan always acts like a mature detective at certain times, so it is normal for Haibara Ai, who has a good relationship with Conan, to behave like this... probably.

She nodded worriedly and was about to follow the members of the Junior Detective League, but when she turned around, she saw Haibara Ai still standing there. She asked with some surprise.

"Xiao Ai, aren't you going now?"

"Sister Xiaolan, you go first, I will catch up with you later."

Haibara Ai said this, which made Mao Li Ran stand there and hesitate for a while. In the end, she chose to believe Haibara Ai, the most reliable member of the Junior Detective League, nodded, and turned to leave.

Zizzi——————

The voice transmitter sounded a signal.

"What's wrong, Miss Huibara, aren't you going to the gym with us?"

Professor Moriarty's voice rang out, but Huihara Ai looked up at this time.

She glanced around and finally focused her attention on the window of a room not far away - there was a tall figure, who seemed to be wearing some clothes, looking at this place.

"... As expected, Professor Moriarty, although you can hear the sounds here through other means, if you want to truly see the situation here, you still have to see it with your own eyes, right?"

She looked at the figure in the distance, but she was not Conan and did not have those high-tech glasses that could magnify and scan distant images, so she could not see clearly what the person in the dark looked like.

"Yes, just as you said... Miss Huiyuan, you stayed here to ask for directions, and also to... participate in my game alone, right?"

The other party's voice was as calm as usual, and he didn't seem to worry at all that Haibara Ai would spread the news that he was at Dunlun University - perhaps it was because the other party didn't know about the existence of the Detective Badge?
Huiyuan Ai didn't know, but she didn't like this guy who always seemed to be able to see into people's hearts and used various means and strategies to force others to step into dangerous situations...

"You can tell me about the game now."

She did not directly respond to the other party's question, but asked directly about the content of the game.

Professor Moriarty didn't care about the little girl's rebellion. He just said.

"Alice Watson is in the stadium. There are two time bombs placed next to her. The first bomb is powerful enough to blow up the entire stadium, while the second bomb can only kill the person closest to it."

"Unlock the first bomb and you can take Alice Watson away, and unlock the second bomb... and I will tell you where Sherlock Holmes is and give you a new game of rescuing Holmes."

"There are still fifteen minutes until the explosion. Now, you can act... Miss Huiyuan, I wish you a happy, relaxed game and good luck."

Moriarty said something infuriating as if he had a hidden meaning, and then cut off the communication on his own.

The figure in the distance also disappeared, as if he had really left the building.

At this moment, the voice transmitter suddenly exploded, and a small box fell out from among the parts.

Inside the box... was a map of the University of London.

It seems that Moriarty had predicted Haibara Ai's actions from the beginning, so he specially arranged such props here...

"...What an infuriating guy."

Huihara Ai said.
