In the light gate, everyone passed through one after another.
Not many people choose the detective game, including Qin Zhibo and Bill Tuttle, there are only six people.
Although people in this world admire detectives, they don't like to experience a detective game where the results are public.
According to previous news released by Sindora Company, there will be two press conferences for the game "Cocoon" this time.
The first press conference was held at Syndora's headquarters in Boston, USA, and mainly invited adults to play games.
The second press conference was held in Japan at the request of Japanese investors to invite minors to play games.
So essentially, the difficulty of this game is designed for minors.
If these powerful people cannot solve the puzzles set for minors, they will be embarrassed and even affect their company's stock price.

Powerful people often like to ask difficult questions to test the IQ of others, but they do not want their own IQ to be tested by others.
Bill Tuttle looked back at the people around him and said somewhat thankfully: "Are we the only ones?"
But before he finished speaking, another extremely large figure walked out of the light door.
Little Walter Marsh stepped into the light door, glanced at the surrounding environment with an extremely gloomy expression, and saw Bill Tuttle at a glance.
Bill's frightened eyes also happened to look into the light gray pupils of Walter Marsh Jr., which were so light in color that they seemed to blend in with the whites of his surrounding eyes, making them appear hollow and terrifying.
Bill was instantly frightened so much that his body trembled violently. Just as he was about to propose changing the game, the light door was closed and the game officially started.
Qin Zhibo glanced at Bill Tuttle and Walter Marsh Jr. and noticed that the two seemed to be mortal enemies.
According to what Qin Zhibo has learned so far, Walter Marsh Jr. should have been born into the Marsh family in Innsmouth. The locals once believed in a god called Cthulhu.
And Bill Tuttle may be a member of the Yellow Seal Brotherhood and believe in the King in Yellow.
Is it because of different beliefs?
Qin Zhibo felt a little puzzled and could only hope to ask Conan how he knew about Cthulhu after returning to Japan.
Just when everyone was familiar with the environment, a howling sound suddenly came from the night sky in London.
ah--
The screams cut through the unique "dirty air" of London City and reached everyone's ears, causing the bodies of the seven players to tremble at the same time.
After all, he had been in the killing field for a long time. Qin Zhibo immediately knew that a murder had occurred and immediately ran with all his strength in the direction of the sound. The others reacted for a few seconds before they followed suit.
Walking through a dark alley, a man in a white cloak was squatting in front of the corpse and grinning, his hands seemed to be groping for something.
Kaitou Kidd?
This game was designed by Kudo Yusaku, and it seems that he had some fights with Kuroba Kaito's father.
It's really a bit of a bad idea to design such a costume for a murderer.
But this game should be over as long as the murderer is caught.
Qin Zhibo thought of the idea of breaking the situation, and stopped with bated breath, trying to sneak up from behind and give him a pleasant kick.
However, Bill Tuttle, who was running behind, saw the body on the ground and immediately screamed in fright.
"There is death, dead people!"
This cry directly alerted the murderer, who was still settling the loot, and started to run away with his 1.2-meter-long legs.
Qin Zhibo wanted to catch up, but found that the game seemed to deliberately increase the difficulty of the game, so that the player's physical data was far different from the murderer's physical data, and he was already missing without taking two steps.
Even if Qin Zhibo tried to use his own system props, such as using the [Gift of the Golden Tree] to improve his physical data, there was still no result.
Cut~plug-ins are disabled.
Qin Zhibo returned to the body of the assassinated woman and found that even the corpse investigation could not be used.
This is of course, because all this is game data, and this body does not actually exist, so why bother investigating?
Everyone was still gathering around the body, but at this moment, an ordinary citizen walked towards the end of the street. His long and narrow figure and the humming of a London serenade reminded everyone of his identity.
Just as Bill Tuttle was about to reach out to call the game NPC to help call the police, Qin Zhibo and Walter Marsh Jr. stopped him simultaneously.
"Wait a minute!"×2
Qin Zhibo and Walter Marsh Jr. looked at each other. Walter Marsh Jr. raised his head and let Qin Zhibo speak first.
Qin Zhibo was not polite and said directly: "Now we are all wearing strange clothes that are inconsistent with this era, and we just happen to appear next to the corpse. If we really meet the police NPC, it will be difficult to explain clearly."
"It would be even more troublesome if the police in this game were set up as our enemies."
Having said this, Walter Marsh Jr. also nodded and agreed: "The police cannot be trusted."
After hearing this, everyone else except Bill Tuttle also felt that it made sense. Anyway, even if it turned out to be a stupid decision later, the blame could still be passed on to the teammates.
Most people agreed to hide first, so everyone hid in the haystacks in the alley next to them and quietly observed the reaction of the police when they arrived.
Just as Qin Zhibo expected, passers-by called the police, and the ordinary patrol officer called Officer Lestrade.
After Lestrade arrived at the scene, he first checked the identity of the deceased, then ordered his men to cordon off the surrounding blocks, catch all suspicious persons, and then slowly eliminate them.
This method of solving crimes can be said to be very undetective, and it can also be said to be very blind.
"This is the third murder committed by Jack the Ripper. What kind of murderous devil is he?"
Lestrade beside the corpse was sighing, and Qin Zhibo suddenly felt that Bill Tuttle, who was hiding next to him, was standing up to release his stealth state.
Qin Zhibo immediately stretched out his hand to hold his shoulder, but Lestrade in the game had already heard the strange noise coming from the alley, and immediately reached out to signal the patrolman beside him to stop talking, touching the revolver on his waist and heading this way.
Come over here.
At this critical moment when he was about to be discovered, a patrol officer ran out from across the street and shouted: "Officer Lestrade! Another dead person has been found in the Eastville neighborhood!"
After hearing the report, Lestrade changed direction and followed the patrolman away from the scene.
Everyone waited for the police to leave, and then they released their invisibility from the haystacks.
"Mr. Bill, what happened to you just now?"
Faced with Qin Zhibo's questioning, Bill Tuttle quickly explained that he just wanted to go to the police.
"As long as we can prove to the police that we are not the murderers, can we move freely?"
Just as Qin Zhibo was about to continue explaining, a sharp punch suddenly flashed past him. It was Walter Marsh Jr. who punched Bill Tuttle in the face.
