Chapter 339

5-chome, Beika-cho, Tokyo, Mouri Detective Agency.

Kogoro Mouri, who was originally drinking beer while watching the horse racing channel, was shouting loudly in a drunken state, but at this moment, an advertisement was suddenly inserted on the TV.

News inserted on Japanese TV channels at other times is either major national events, major disasters such as earthquakes and tsunamis, or important information closely related to people's livelihood.

And advertisements that can be inserted at other times are extremely rare. It's not that it can't be done, but it requires a lot of money.

Such "money power" is something even ordinary financial groups and groups cannot afford.

Seeing the original horse racing program being replaced by the inserted advertisement, Kogoro Mouri was full of dissatisfaction at first, but when he saw that the person in the advertisement was actually his favorite female star, Yoko Okino, the expression on Uncle Mouri's face suddenly became rippling again.

Yoko Okino on TV was wearing a piece of leather armor that looked like a fantasy adventurer, holding a long sword in her hand, and then flew forward, performing a gorgeous sword skill, directly cutting a large bear standing upright in front of her into several pieces.

And strangely, the large bear that was slashed to death by Yoko Okino with a sword didn't have a drop of blood splashing out, but instead turned into fragments and dissipated in the air after a wail.

At the beginning, seeing the picture on TV, everyone watching TV, like Kogoro Mouri, thought that Yoko Okino was filming a new movie.

And the advertisement inserted now is a clip from the movie, and its purpose is to promote her new movie.

But no one expected that after Yoko Okino successfully conquered the giant bear monster, she turned her head to look at the camera and said to the audience: "Audience in front of the TV, seeing me now, you must think I'm filming a movie, right?

But actually, that's not right. Everything Yoko is doing now is happening for real. What you just saw is not so-called special effects... to be more precise, for me, everything I just experienced is a real, immersive experience."

"That's right, I'm not filming a movie, but playing a game, a virtual reality game 'Second World' that can fully simulate the five senses.

In the real world, do you often feel bored because of your dull and mediocre life, and do you often feel like you are stumbling because of the heavy pressure of life?

Then come to 'Second World'. This is an epoch-making game, a real and vast virtual world that is absolutely enough to make you feel like you are there.

Here you can start your second life. There will be no more heavy academic and life pressures, and everyone is a hero in this world."

Accompanied by Yoko Okino's introduction, the camera on TV constantly switched between mountains, oceans, and forests in the virtual world, and during this period, various legendary creatures appeared, such as giant dragons, griffins, unicorns, etc.

Just looking at Yoko Okino's battle scene just now, and those majestic mythical creatures that only appear in legends, many people in front of the TV screen were already boiling with excitement at this moment.

However, Yoko Okino's words had not ended yet. In order to prove that what she just said was true, Yoko Okino, dressed as an adventurer on TV, switched the camera back to the real world after some operations.

And at this moment, she just sat up from the bed, took off the helmet she was wearing, and continued: "The device that looks like a helmet I am wearing is the New-404, a fully virtual reality game experience device developed by the 'Shenglingyuan Company' of the Suzuki Financial Group.

As long as you put on this extremely portable stealth device, you can log in to your account anytime, anywhere, and enter that virtual world full of mystery.

And because it is a fully virtual game, even those patients who cannot move their bodies can enter the virtual world to start their second life as long as they still have consciousness through this device.

Because it fully simulates the five senses of reality, for example, the various delicacies in the game can not only perfectly replicate the taste, but you also don't have to worry about your real body getting fat because of it.

Compared to adventure, I, who like to enjoy various desserts but often need to pay attention to body maintenance as an artist and be extremely restrained, prefer this point even more.

I am Yoko Okino, looking forward to starting a new adventure with everyone in 'Second World'!"

The advertisement on TV ended here, and the release date and price of the game stealth device introduced by Yoko Okino just now soon appeared on the TV screen.

Many people watching TV originally thought that the Suzuki Financial Group had made such a magnificent virtual world this time, and even invited a big star like Yoko Okino to film an advertisement.

Then the stealth device named New-404 to play the so-called 'Second World' must not be cheap.

But no one expected that when the price of New-404 appeared on the TV screen, everyone was stunned. For such an epoch-making large-scale game, the price was only 100,000 yen!

Of course, considering that there are some special users, the stealth devices used to log in to 'Second World' also have different grades.

However, compared to the cheapest New-404, the more expensive New-504 and New-888 are only more comfortable to use and have exclusive customer service, and there is almost no difference in other aspects.

The price of 100,000 yen is actually not cheap, after all, in terms of the price of the game alone, it is already higher than most games on the market.

But just looking at the publicity and production of 'Second World', buying a stealth device at this price is simply a cabbage price.

"Fully virtual reality game? Isn't that the kind of 'Cocoon' that the Sindora Company made last time?

The previous news was so big, and the Suzuki Financial Group still dares to develop such a project. Are they afraid of losing all their money because they have too much money?"

Uncle Mouri's eyes had been on Yoko Okino the whole time just now. It was only after the advertisement ended that he remembered what a so-called fully virtual reality game was.

"That's not it, Dad. The 'Second World' developed by Shengzai's company is much more astonishing than the 'Cocoon' of the Sindora Company before.

Conan and I have already experienced it. That immersive feeling, although it is called a virtual world, really feels no different from the real world.

The clips in the advertisement just now are almost all true, without any exaggeration."

Ran said while taking out the stealth device that Shengzai gave them last time, saying that she planned to let her father experience the shock of another world.

And Conan on the side looked at the TV and muttered to himself: "I didn't expect that the guy Shengzai really did what he promised Hiroki."
