Chapter 325: Jack the Ripper killed the professor?
It is true that Irene is a virtual character in the game, but the "Noah's Ark" of artificial intelligence is also a virtual life for humans.

Being overly emotional is not a good thing, but being affectionate and loyal is also a virtue of human nature.

Seiya's own abilities are already excellent, and he also has the background of a top chaebol like the Suzuki Group. If he is assisted by the artificial intelligence "Noah's Ark", it is not impossible for him to stand at the top of the world in the future.

But is it really a good thing for Seiya, who stands at the top, to act too rationally? Hiroki fell into deep thought.

"From my perspective, I prefer Seiya's rational approach.

But in the eyes of Edogawa and some other people, they might think that Seiya is too rational. After all, this question itself has no answer, just like the famous "trolley problem".

A Harvard professor once posed a question: Imagine there are five people on a tram track, and there is a child on the other side of the track. You are in control of the tram. Would you save the five people or the child?

As soon as Ai finished speaking, Conan frowned and said, "Our current situation is somewhat different from the "Trolley Problem".

Even if we protect Irene, it means we will definitely be killed by Jack the Ripper, right? "

In response to Conan's rebuttal, Ai rolled her eyes and said, "But protecting Irene will put us at greater risk, right?
And Irene is just a virtual character in this game scene, but if we all lose, the lives of the fifty people in the "cocoon" will all be declared over.

Seiya endured the stigma of being cold-blooded and chose the rational side, while Edogawa chose the emotional side, but in my opinion, there is almost no difference. "

After hearing Ai's analysis, Conan fell silent, and Hideki Moroboshi on the side looked at Haibara Ai with surprise in his eyes.

Originally, he thought that the only ones who could defy the heavens were Seiya and the shrunken Kudo Shinichi, but it turns out that this little girl named Haibara Ai is not simple at all!

"This child named Haibara Ai is Dr. Agasa's child, right? She's so knowledgeable despite her young age. It seems like she'll become a great scientist like Dr. Agasa in the future."

At this moment, Suzuki Tomoko was watching the live broadcast outside. When she saw Haibara Ai supporting her beloved son in the game, she immediately felt a great favor for her.

As evening approached, the performance at the opera house began as usual, and when Irene took the stage, all the forces hidden in the dark had made their preparations.

Xiaolan and others hiding behind the curtain kept their eyes fixed on Irene performing on the stage, being wary of any stranger who tried to approach Irene.

Professor Moriarty sat in the VIP seat in the attic, enjoying red wine and waiting for the show to begin with anticipation.

If Irene were to bleed here, Holmes's expression of agony would be quite interesting.

"boom------!"

Just when everyone was tense and their attention was focused on Irene on the stage, a huge explosion sounded and the surrounding lights went out at the same time!

As the surroundings fell into darkness, Xiaolan, Conan and others rushed to where Irene was almost at the same time.

Because any fool would know that the sudden extinguishing of the surrounding lights must have been caused by Jack the Ripper. It would undoubtedly be difficult for him to assassinate Irene in public, so he used the explosion to create chaos and then turned off all the lights, thus completing the assassination without anyone noticing.

Because they had anticipated that such a situation might happen, Conan, Xiaolan and others found Irene's location almost as soon as the lights went out, and formed a circle with their backs to each other to protect her behind them.

The advantage of doing this is that even if they are in the dark, no matter which direction Jack the Ripper attacks from, they can find the opponent's position at the first time.

Among the audience, the only one who was not surprised but happy about the commotion, and even felt a little excited, was Professor Moriarty.

After all, if Irene died, he would be able to see the painful expression of his mortal enemy Sherlock Holmes. Even if Irene didn't die, watching Jack the Ripper fighting to the death with Seiya and his gang would be a very exciting scene for Professor Moriarty.

Professor Moriarty has been rampant in London for so many years. When has he ever been threatened by anyone?

He would be quite happy if Seiya and his group were killed by Jack the Ripper.

However, just as he stood up and craned his neck to look towards the stage, hoping to catch the first glimpse of something interesting, he completely failed to notice that behind him, a figure holding a dagger was slowly approaching him...

As a first-class killer, Jack the Ripper was very good at hiding his presence. In addition, everyone's attention was now attracted to the stage. No one would have thought that his target from the beginning was not Irene, but Professor Moriarty.

“Puff——————!”

When the sharp dagger pierced Professor Moriarty's chest, his originally excited and happy expression was completely frozen on his face, and gradually turned into confusion and astonishment.

Feeling the sharp pain in his chest, Professor Moriarty slowly turned around. When he saw the familiar face in front of him, looking at him with a sinister smile, his eyes revealed a deep sense of confusion: "It's you, but why..."

He wanted to deal with Jack the Ripper, but that was a recent idea that came to his mind, so it was impossible for him to be exposed, unless...

Impossible! If Seiya and the others were in cahoots with Jack the Ripper, they could have killed me at the club before, without going through all this trouble.

So that means Jack the Ripper wanted to kill himself, and that was his idea from the beginning?
But why is this? The other party hates the mother who abandoned him, so he has been hunting women. But although Moriarty is a little old, he is a real man!

"Old man, if you hadn't died, London wouldn't have been in chaos. And only if you died could I take over the power in your hands and do something for me."

"Bang——————!"

When Professor Moriarty's body with a dagger in its heart fell from the VIP seats in the attic, the surrounding guests also noticed it and fell into panic.

When Conan and the others heard the screams and saw Professor Moriarty lying on the ground with his eyes open, their expressions were instantly filled with shock.

Professor Moriarty, the second most dangerous person in London, is dead, so the whole city is bound to fall into chaos!
