People in Detective Conan are going crazy over the comments section.

Chapter 261 We are Type 1 People

"That guy called Jack the Ripper, the one the professor put on the streets to make London a city of terror, right?"

Conan asked first.

Professor Moriarty looked at him with interest and replied, "You're only half right."

His tone was wistful with reminiscence, "Jack the Ripper was a homeless child I found in the slums. Although he was a homeless child abandoned by his mother and wandering the streets, ah..."

Professor Moriarty paused, then said, "I sensed his talent at a glance, the talent of a criminal."

"So I trained him to be a top-notch assassin!"

"But why kill innocent women? I don't understand," Xiaolan asked, puzzled.

Moriarty explained, "Jack the Ripper became a serial killer beyond my imagination, and this series of cases was all a result of that kid going out of control."

The next second, his face showed a hint of interest, "If you want to deal with Jack the Ripper, then I'll help you too."

“Of course, no problem. Just tell us his whereabouts.” Asakawa Yu said at the right moment.

Moriarty glanced at him and scoffed softly.

"I may not be able to help you with this, but although Jack the Ripper is out of control now, he will still obey my orders. You just need to go around and wait for him."

"But what should we do?" Conan asked again.

But Moriarty did not answer his question directly; instead, he posed a riddle.

"I will place a message for him in the Sunday Times ad column tomorrow."

Conan immediately panicked and asked, "Then, who are you ordering him to kill?!"

"Hehe, you'll know for sure once you read tomorrow's newspaper."

Having said that, no matter how anxious Conan was, he could only obediently wait until tomorrow morning to come back.

Just when everyone thought the matter was over and Professor Moriarty was about to leave, he unexpectedly stopped.

He turned his head and glanced at Asakawa Hayao standing next to Conan, a slight smile playing on his lips.

“Mr. Asakawa, I sensed something unusual about you, a kind of… profound darkness.”

Everyone was taken aback, and Ai Haibara and the others frowned even more.

"What do you mean by that?" Asakawa Yu asked calmly.

"Hahaha! Interesting." Professor Moriarty clapped his hands.

"I have a feeling that we should be considered the same kind of people."

Conan and the others stared wide-eyed, their gazes constantly shifting between Asakawa Hayao and Professor Moriarty.

Asakawa Yu frowned. He hadn't expected that even Professor Moriarty in the game would be so troublesome.

I never expected him to say something like that.

He frowned slightly, and just as he was about to say something, he felt his hand being taken.

"That's not the case!"

Mingmei stood beside him, gripping his right hand tightly, her eyes filled with unwavering determination.

"The boss isn't that kind of person!"

She didn't explain much, but simply stared firmly at Moriarty standing there, her aura even overshadowing Moriarty's.

Asakawa Yu was stunned. He turned around and saw Akemi looking back at him with a gentle expression, the meaning of which was self-evident.

Upon seeing this, Moriarty paused briefly, then grinned.

"Hahaha! That's interesting. Well then, let's wait and see."

"Well, good luck to you."

Having said that, Moriarty slowly sat down in the carriage, and with the driver's whip, the carriage slowly sped forward.

[Wow, that's impressive! No wonder he's a professor; he recognized Asakawa Yu's extraordinary talent at a glance.]

[Um... did the person upstairs get something wrong? He just said that Asakawa Yu is the same type of person as him!]

"So what? The official sources haven't revealed Asakawa Yu's past or his role yet. How do you know he's definitely on the main characters' side?"

[That seems... to make sense!]

It wasn't until Moriarty left that everyone recovered from the shock of what had just happened.

“Sister…” Ai Haibara silently walked to her older sister’s side and looked at her with a hint of worry.

At the same time, their attention was also drawn to Asakawa Yu.

Although she knew that Asakawa Yu was never an ordinary pushover and that everything he did was for a purpose, it didn't stop her from acknowledging and accepting this man.

But now, his facade has been exposed in front of everyone, which makes her worry.

Then, she took a moment to glance at Conan's location.

But he only frowned for a moment before quickly relaxing his brow.

Conan also knew that this was not a good place to chat, especially with the children here.

As for Asakawa Yu, he knew that Asakawa Yu was not simple, but as he said.

Asakawa Yu has always been on their side. If they were to doubt him based on something a game character said, then that would be their problem.

"How could that be? Asakawa-nii is clearly a very good person!"

"Yes, yes, Brother Asakawa has been inviting us to his shop for desserts, how could he be a bad person!"

"Uh-huh!"

The three children spontaneously defended Asakawa Yu. In their view, Moriarty's words were just an attempt to sow discord, and they could not possibly believe them.

Although he was somewhat bothered by Professor Moriarty's words, after glancing at Akemi holding his hand, Asakawa Yu suddenly felt that he didn't really care anymore.

"Thank you," Asakawa Yu said to Akemi with a slight smile on her lips.

Seeing this, Mingmei smiled and then comforted her, "It's nothing. Besides, I'm your girlfriend, so of course I won't just stand by and watch you get 'bullied'."

"Hmm." Asakawa Yu nodded in acknowledgment, and the matter was considered closed.

"What should we do next?" Ai Haibara asked.

Seeing that the matter was resolved so easily, she felt relieved.

"Since Professor Moriarty has said so, then we just need to do as he says and wait for tomorrow morning."

Asakawa Yu shrugged and said indifferently.

"But should we really believe what that old man said?" Hideki Morohoshi asked anxiously.

Then he carefully observed the direction Asakawa Yu was heading.

"What can we do, believe it or not? This is the only option we can take now..."
