"..."

The atmosphere inside the carriage suddenly became quiet. Everyone stared at Sherlock Teng's serious expression and gestures, and a moment of silence ensued.

"Jack the Ripper, stop pretending!"

Fujino stared calmly at the whiny guy in front of him, adhering to the principle that as long as he wasn't embarrassed, it was someone else who was embarrassed. He said seriously and in a deep voice, "I can already tell that you're a man!"

"..."

Jack the Ripper's eyebrow twitched.

If you can see it, then you can take your hand away.

It's really itchy!

After a moment of silence, he shoved Sherlock Teng away.

She easily tore open her seemingly paper-thin long dress, revealing a combat suit used for assassination underneath.

Then he threw a smoke grenade at the ground.

"Boom!"

Smoke quickly filled the entire carriage, enveloping everyone's vision.

Fujino reacted quickly, raising his cane and smashing the car window next to him.

A large amount of smoke was exchanged by the air siphoned in from outside the window. Soon, the smoke dissipated, and the passengers in the carriage quietly disappeared in the smoke. Ran also disappeared at the same time.

Hideki Morohoshi looked around and shouted, "Jack the Ripper is gone!"

"It's not just him..."

Conan, however, remained unusually calm, observing his surroundings. "The passengers and Ran have also disappeared!"

"Yes."

Fujino frowned and echoed, "Where did they go?"

So what exactly is that bunch of stuff on my chest?

How come the clothes disappeared after I tore them open?

"Mr. Sherlock Holmes!"

At this moment, Conan came to his senses, looked at Sherlock Holmes Teng, and couldn't help but ask, "How did you determine that the lady was Jack the Ripper?"

"Ahem, it's actually very simple."

Fujino snapped out of his daze and explained seriously, "Actually, I noticed a long time ago that her fingers were different from other people's fingers. I've also said that seeing is not the same as observing. Once you understand this, you'll definitely understand."

"I see!"

Conan nodded in sudden realization.

No wonder, it turns out they had already discovered the other party's disguise.

I knew Mr. Sherlock Holmes wouldn't touch someone's chest so easily.

This is definitely done to provoke the other party!

No wonder he's Sherlock Holmes!

His observational skills are indeed far beyond those of ordinary people!

"Anyway, let's hurry up and chase Jack the Ripper."

Fujino changed the subject, turning and running towards the front carriage. "Since the train is still moving, the other party must still be on this train!"

"Yes, Mr. Sherlock Holmes!"

Conan nodded and quickly followed.

He said, "You actually believed that!"

Noah's Ark, which remained in place, couldn't help but twitch its lips.

Once inside the game, the detective started trying to fool the kid.

And they even convinced them completely...

He had a feeling that this detective must have some other side jobs!

"The train's braking system had been damaged, the combustion chamber was full of coal, and the passengers inside the train had suddenly disappeared."

Conan jumped over the coal bins at the back of the train and looked towards the driver's cab. "At this rate, the train will definitely crash into the platform when it reaches the final stop, and then we'll all be..."

"Actually, bumping into the platform doesn't matter much."

Fujino said in a deep voice, "When I came up just now, I saw that the last carriage was full of red wine. As long as you hide in the red wine, you will be safe."

"Wine?"

Conan frowned upon hearing this. "That's right, if we hide in the red wine, relying on the liquid's cushioning, even if we crash into the platform, we won't die. As expected of Mr. Sherlock Holmes!"

Noah's Ark: "..."

The AI was even more frustrated at this point, feeling as if it had been completely played by the detective.

Not only did she impersonate Sherlock Holmes at the spawn point to outmaneuver him, but she also directly controlled the Jack the Ripper that he was controlling, and now she's even revealed the final mystery he set up ahead of time...

Could this detective have read my script?

"It seems we need to find Jack the Ripper quickly!"

Noah's Ark, disguised as Hideki Morohoshi, sighed inwardly, then frowned slightly and said, "That older sister is still in that guy's hands. Even if we have to leave, we must rescue her!"

"That's right."

Conan nodded slightly, then clenched his fist. "But where could they have gone? We've already searched the entire train car..."

"They're on the roof of the car, over there."

Sherlock Tennant followed and stood on top of the fuel tank. He looked back and saw Jack the Ripper.

"Sister Ran!"

Conan was tossed onto the roof of the car by Fujino like a puppy. He then ran over quickly and found Ran with her hands and feet bound tightly.

"Elegant Butterfly!"

Ran saw Conan, she immediately shouted.

"This rope is already tied between me and this young lady. If I fall, she will fall off the cliff with me!"

Jack the Ripper picked up a piece of rope and drew a dagger from its holster at his waist. He looked at the group that had followed him and said, "Come on, Sherlock Holmes, let me see what tricks you're up to."

"..."

Fujino didn't reply, silently observing Jack the Ripper and Ran, speechless for a moment.

Honestly, with Ran's fighting ability, how did she even manage to get tied up by this red-haired cross-dressing guy?

Could it be that the game forced Ran to play, and she was automatically tied up after being drugged?

It's not impossible...

"What exactly do you want, Jack the Ripper?!"

Conan looked at Jack the Ripper and shouted, "You've already killed your own mother to avenge her abandonment of you, and now you're still killing people?! Why?!"

"What do you think I should do? To survive, of course!"

Jack the Ripper laughed out of turn, "I will let the evil blood flowing in my veins propel Noah's Ark to the next era!"

"Noah's Ark?"

Conan frowned upon hearing this, suddenly remembering the hacker who had broken into the game, also known as Noah's Ark.

"Speaking of which, little apprentice."

At that moment, Sherlock Holmes suddenly asked Conan, "Once we catch Jack the Ripper, you'll all be safe, right?"

"That's right, as long as we complete the game missions, we can leave the game."

"I see."

Sherlock Teng asked in a deep voice. Conan, who was deep in thought, came back to his senses and saw the other party draw his cane sword, throw the scabbard off the roof of the car, and look at Jack the Ripper with great momentum. "If it can save everyone, then I am willing to destroy you, even if it means dying with you!"

"Mr. Sherlock Holmes?"

Before Conan could even react, Sherlock Teng had already moved, rushing towards Jack the Ripper and wrestling with him.

During the struggle, Sherlock Teng cut the ropes binding Ran.

Then, he Jack the Ripper the Ripper, his eyes resolute, and with a resolute look, they jumped off the cliff together.

Conan quickly ran to the side of the speeding train, looked down the cliff, and saw only the rushing river in the darkness.

Only the words, "My disciple! Even if this is just a game, please carry on my will and continue on!" echoed in the valley.

"Hateful!"

Thoughts raced through his mind, and Conan slammed his fist on the ground, his eyes gradually welling up with tears. "Mr. Sherlock Holmes!"

This Sherlock Holmes is indeed fake, but he has long regarded him as his true mentor.

Such an ending, exactly like Sherlock Holmes's, a sublime sacrifice for the lives of all...

Now, he was completely convinced of this Sherlock Holmes' identity!
