Maybe it's the settings made by Cocoon Game or Noah's Ark to take care of players, and the content in the book becomes easy to understand.
Qin Zhibo turns the pages of the book at extremely fast hand speeds and can still understand the content inside. It can be called "quantum wave speed reading".
The content of the book is that since the scientific community discovered Neptune, the eighth planet after Uranus, through calculations and observations, it began to explore whether there are other planets outside Neptune.
Today's astronomers generally believe that Neptune's orbit around the sun is being pulled by the gravitational pull of a certain planet.
There is a Planet X beyond Neptune.
Moriarty's view is different from that of ordinary scientists. Moriarty believes that the gravity provided by ordinary asteroids is not enough to affect Neptune's orbit.
Moriarty used mathematical calculations to simulate the possible celestial coordinates of Planet X.
However, through observations from the University of Brightchester Observatory, no celestial body sufficient to pull Neptune's orbit was found at these coordinates.
Therefore, Moriarty believes that there is an object in the universe similar to "Halley's Comet", which periodically approaches the solar system and distorts the orbit of Neptune.
Based on mathematical calculations of celestial mechanics, Moriarty believes that this "Halley's Comet" is a giant planet, and like Jupiter, it is a gas giant planet.
Once this giant planet approaches the solar system again, it will cause the stars to transpose, the magnetic poles of the earth's poles to reverse, the earth's core to stop functioning, and the world will usher in an apocalyptic winter, just like the previous ice age.
However, because this giant planet cannot be observed with current human technology, Moriarty cannot name it and can only call it "Great Halley's Comet".
As for pictures, Moriarty created a hand-drawn drawing of "The Great Halley's Comet."
In the hand-drawn drawing, a big anthropomorphic eye is very eye-catching.
Qin Zhibo looked at the familiar pictures and felt that he had seen most of the content mentioned in this book somewhere.
yes!
It's at Terai Huangnosuke's place!
Strictly speaking, it was Kuroba Kaito who obtained the information collected by Terai Kinosuke from the Animal Organization for the organization's purpose of collecting gems.
After the members of the animal organization obtained a certain gemstone, they said that when the "Halley's Comet" returns once in ten thousand years, if they offer the Pandora Stone to the full moon, they will gain some kind of power.
At that time, Terai Kinosuke conducted various data searches and believed that the "Halley's Comet" mentioned by the animal organization was not the Halley's Comet that returned once in 1976, but the legendary "Great Halley's Comet".
The "Great Halley's Comet" theory was proposed in 1888 by astronomers from the University of Brightchester in the United Kingdom.
This is exactly the same time as the current time in the game, which is 1888.
In other words, the game borrows the real-life setting and places the "Great Halley's Comet" on Professor Moriarty.
This wave is a game that reflects reality.
Is this also a change made by Yusaku Kudo?
Qin Zhibo thought for a while and felt that this should not be the case.
Whether it is borrowing from the real "Great Halley's Comet" theory, or changing the game background to the old London in "A Study of the Green Letter", these should be Noah's Ark's own changes.
Since Noah's Ark can hack into the system of "Cocoon", it is not surprising that it can do this.
What Qin Zhibo just can't figure out is why Noah's Ark did this?
If he wanted to kill all the rich second generation, he should have a simpler and cruder method.
Thinking in his mind, Qin Zhibo looked at Hideki Morohoshi in front of the bookcase.
There is still no name above his head.
I saw him pretending to be rummaging through the books in the bookcase, but he only glanced at them twice and threw them aside.
The ball rolled down from the bookcase. Hideki Morohoshi caught it in his hand and just glanced at it before throwing it aside.
On the other hand, the two bored boys at the back were very happy to see football from a hundred years ago.
"Jiang Shou, this is football from a hundred years ago!"
"But...my grandfather doesn't let me play football anymore."
"What are you afraid of? Your grandpa is not here."
"That's right"
It can be seen that these two children really like football.
However, it can also be seen that the person who controls the character Hideki Morohoshi now is indeed not Hideki Morohoshi himself.
Also seeing this was Conan, who was looking for clues.
Conan: "."Did this guy suddenly change his gender?
Conan shook his head and decided to continue looking for clues belonging to this era.
After flipping through the pages, Conan suddenly pulled out a family tree from the back of the bookcase.
Genealogy of the Dominators...
Opening the family tree, the words written on it made people feel that they were not human names, but some kind of darker, indescribable existence.
The source of the universe, the god of blindness and foolishness—Azathos

When he first opened the family tree, Conan thought it was Moriarty's family tree.
In the game, I accidentally found out that Moriarty's ancestor was the eighteenth generation?
However, after briefly browsing it, Conan found that he was wrong.
This is not Moriarty's genealogy, and it may not even have anything to do with humans.
The thick family tree runs from top to bottom, and the relationships in it are complicated and difficult to understand.
Moreover, the names on this family tree do not respect traditional morals and ethics at all, and their inheritance is as chaotic as animals.
And most importantly, Conan discovered a word he knew in it - Cthulhu.
Conan once looked up this on the Internet. This is the name of a god in the "Old Mythology" system.
In addition, Cthugha, the name of the god who appears in Zoroastrian hymns, also appears here.
what is this.
Is this an Easter egg in the game?
Just when Conan was puzzled, a big hand next to him suddenly stretched out and took away the book in Conan's hand.
Qin Zhibo only glanced at it, his eyes changed slightly, and he directly put the booklet into his arms.
"You guys should take a rest first. Time in the game cannot be measured by common sense. There should be a carriage coming to take us to the palace in a while."
Conan was a little confused and asked: "Are you really going to do what Moriarty said?"
"He is the villain in Sherlock Holmes, and he is probably misleading us!"
"A Study in the Green Letter" appeared in the Sherlock Holmes case.
However, Conan was too concerned about the case itself at the time and did not have time to read this "Sherlock Holmes fan", so it was normal not to know the setting of this world.
"Don't worry." Qin Zhibo patted Conan on the shoulder, "From the current point of view, the plot of this game is no longer the original version, but a modified version."
"If Noah's Ark wants to kill us, there is no need to go to such trouble. The character of Sherlock Holmes can be completely crossed out."
"I can feel that Noah's Ark is guiding us"
As Qin Zhibo spoke, he glanced at Zhu Xingxing Xiushu not far away.
In the game control room, Dr. Ali operates the keyboard quickly, still only playing the role of a game spectator.
The level of Noah's Ark is higher than mine - Dr. Ali
"We seem to have underestimated Noah's Ark too much. Holmes and Watson are not in No. 221B, replaced by Moriarty and Moran."
Kudo Yusaku in the back held his chin and remained silent.
In Kudo Yusaku's original setting, players would join forces with Sherlock Holmes to find out the true identity of Jack the Ripper, who was actually a terminally ill nobleman.
But in this version of the plot, everything has been modified beyond recognition by Noah's Ark.
But after hearing the setting of Moriarty occupying the magpie's nest, Kudo Yusaku felt a sense of inexplicable familiarity.
This seems to be
"This is "Research on Green Characters."" Kudo Yusaku suddenly said seriously.
"Research on green characters?" Mumu looked puzzled, "What does this mean?"
Kudo Yusaku put down the arm he was holding and explained: "This is a Sherlock Holmes fan novel written more than a hundred years ago."
"The book uses roughly the same setting as Sherlock Holmes, but sets Moriarty as the righteous side and Sherlock Holmes as the villain."
"But the most bizarre thing about this book is that when this book first came out, Conan Doyle had not yet created the classic "The Final Case"."
Megure, who had never seen Sherlock Holmes, still had a puzzled look on his face, but Rensaburo Shiratori next to him looked a little surprised.
"Is this true? Mr. Kudo?"
Kudo Yusaku nodded, "This is indeed history that really happened. Since it has been a hundred years, not many people know about it."
"The author who wrote this book is called Nietzsche Moonlight. He is a little-known writer, but he 'predicted' the villain in Sherlock Holmes's book a few months later."
"However, it may also be that Conan Doyle had no intention of continuing to create Sherlock Holmes, so he chose the setting of a fan writer and wanted to end the Sherlock Holmes story hastily."
Kudo Yusaku turned to Dr. Agasa and said, "Dr. Agasa, I'll leave this to you first. If there is any new situation, please call me anytime."
"I'm going to the venue first."
After saying that, Kudo Yusaku turned around and left the game control room.
Now he can't help people in the game, but he can solve the mystery of Tadahina Kashimura's death.
Although Tadahina Kashimura's death message points to the game, the game has been modified beyond recognition by Noah's Ark, and the possibility of finding clues is somewhat slim.
Fortunately, the Mihua Municipal Building has sufficient surveillance equipment, which may provide some useful clues.
Game, old London.
No. 221B, Qin Zhibo and others on the second floor had not rested long when the brisk sound of horse hooves could be heard downstairs.
After a while, Mrs. Hudson brought in several people who looked like guards.
"Hello, we have been ordered to invite you to the palace."
The leading guard bowed politely and invited Qin Zhibo and others downstairs.
At this time, the weather in old London was still hazy and gray, and the low visibility meant that pedestrians still had to rely on the gas lamps on both sides of the street as road signs.
However, this was already the brightest day in London in the old days.
Two carriages picked up Qin Zhibo, Mao Lilan, the Young Detective Group and Houlang respectively.
At the door of No. 221B, Moriarty and Moran stood at the door to see everyone off.
At the porch, Moriarty suddenly spoke.
"Remember, the existence entrenched under our world is unshakable and magnificent, and it is also an indescribable dark nightmare."
"If I were you, there wouldn't be so many people going to see our queen together."
Before Conan, who was sitting on the soft leather cushion, could understand what Moriarty's words meant, the carriage had already started and was heading towards the palace.
After a lackluster carriage journey, the luxurious carriage arrived in front of the palace.
The guards lined up in two lines and guided everyone into the palace.
When they were about to officially enter the building known as the Royal Palace, Qin Zhibo stopped everyone.
"Wait a moment."
"I will go to the next area alone."
Mao Lilan looked a little confused and asked: "Aren't we all going in together?"
Qin Zhibo shook his head and explained: "It doesn't have to be that way. The queen wants to meet with Moriarty, so we don't need to send too many people to the palace."
"Since that's the case, let's go with Mr. Qin and me."
"You can not."
Mao Lilan took the initiative to apply, but was rejected by Qin Zhibo at the speed of light.
In fact, it is nonsense to say that interviews are conducted on a per capita basis. The key to Qin Zhibo's decision was Moriarty's reminder just now and the world view setting of "A Study of the Green Letter".
In this world, the ruling class is not human beings, but indescribable rulers.
Their appearance is a huge challenge to ordinary people's will.
If you go to meet those faces that are beyond your imagination without being mentally prepared, you will only get one emotion in the end.
That is regret.
Therefore, it is not an easy task to meet the Queen, and one must have a strong will.
And Mao Lilan just doesn't have this good character.
At this time, Conan on the side also took the initiative to ask for help.
"I'd better go with Uncle Qin. Maybe I can write down some key details."
Conan's words are implying that he is also a famous high school detective after all, and there is no reason for him to miss such a crucial link.
Qin Zhibo made an assessment in his mind and concluded that Conan's willpower exceeded that of ordinary people, and he should be the second most powerful among these people besides himself.
"Okay, then let Conan come with me."
"The others are right here, don't move, we will go back as soon as we go."
The three little ones couldn't help complaining that it was Conan who caught up with something good again, but in the end he failed to catch up.
As the milky white door closed, the tall and short figures disappeared from everyone's sight.
Inside the door, there is a paunchy aristocratic man with a striking mustache and a high hairline, standing humbly on one side of the corridor.
Qin Zhibo tried hard to recall the contents of "A Study of Green Letters" and remembered that this should be Prince Albert, who is also the queen's consort.
"This is the prince, the queen's consort"
Qin Zhibo whispered the information he knew to Conan next to him, which surprised Conan.
you.
The two walked up to the prince, who began to speak with an accent.
"The Queen is very sad."
"Franz is the only one of the Queen's many nephews who can please her so happily."
