"That's not necessarily Mr. Detective."
Aiwass raised the corners of his mouth slightly and responded in a low voice, "Is it really okay if you don't sell newspapers to us?"
This boy with brown-red curly hair, a face covered with tiny freckles, and a slender and short body who looks only seven or eight years old must be Sherlock.
Aiwass easily recognized Sherlock's identity as soon as he got out of the car.
Because Sherlock didn't hide at all.
He didn't even play his role well.
As a newsboy, he did not promote his newspaper. Instead, he hid calmly and silently in the shade, looking at everyone passing by with his sharp and gloomy eyes.
His gaze was like a cold sharp blade, making passersby feel obvious discomfort. Several people looked at him in surprise and vigilance, and were a little relieved after seeing that he was a gloomy child.
"Fox, you are very smart but you should be a newcomer, right."
The boy sneered coldly, "Teach you a lesson. In most cases, choose not to play your own role." Identity is okay.
"Identity is a necessary task. But the standard of failure is not that your performance fails, but that you are questioned and exposed.
"I'm just a newsboy. Even if it's strange to stay here motionless, who would jump out and question me. You don't look like a serious newsboy. No one will pay attention to me because I am insignificant."
“That’s it”
Aiwass thought thoughtfully, with a warm and bright smile on his face. “Does that mean that as long as I remove all the people who may question me? As long as you kill him first, you don't have to worry about being exposed."
"Well, that's right, but with your ability, you shouldn't be able to do it."
< p>Detective Sherlock, who came in the form of a little boy, was not moved at all by the cruelty and danger in Aiwass's words. He just calmly analyzed, "That's what the old man should have done." He was the first to arrive, which meant he was also an Avalonian. When we are unable to exchange intelligence with each other and are asked by the mission to go to the Hanging Square, we should be able to realize that our current unified goal is to obtain weapons through the hints of preparation for battle in the mission. Then from the black market transaction, the most effective way to obtain weapons, I think of the Pelican Bar that just appeared in the newspaper.
“A further possibility is that through empathy, we realize that other people also need to obtain weapons, so they will also think of the black market and judge that other people may also come to the Pelican Bar. So we can come Gather here. Teammates are obviously more valuable than weapons, and he will go to the Pelican Bar as soon as possible."
" But the bone sculpture did not come here."
"Yes. This means that he does not intend to cooperate with us or that most of the people he thinks will come here have abandoned Huang.Faint on the road. Even if you come, you won't be able to get teammates. "
"In other words, Mr. Detective has long thought that we would come here."
Lulu couldn't help but whispered, "Then what are your plans if the old Mr. Bone Sculpture doesn't come? Will the three of us, plus Mr. Knight, form a team together?"
"In fact, in my plan, the three of us, including the knight, should meet here. Doesn't include you. "
Sherlock looked coldly, "It was an accident that you appeared with the fox.
"Although I am not an extraordinary person who opposes the path of beauty, with all due respect, if you appear alone and there is no fox around you, you will definitely not think of gathering at the door of the Pelican Bar."
"Woo."
Lulu let out a small cry.
The beautiful woman with a plump figure showed a helpless expression like a girl.
Because she knew that Mr. Sherlock was right.
"It's more than that," Aiwass suddenly said, "It's not just because he knows that he won't meet his teammates when he comes here."
Little Sherlock was a little surprised. looked over.
The boy made a childish voice, but his tone was mature and cold. He encouraged him with a look of interest, "Tell me a little bit about it."
"Before, you were interested in the bone carving cane." I am very concerned about it. The apostle has said that the items that can be brought into the ceremony can only be extraordinary items made by himself. In other words, his cane is not an ordinary cane, but a creation of the Dusk Path. This is the first advancement ceremony he has participated in, which means he has just embarked on the Dusk Path. I think his cane may be an extraordinary item made of human bones."
"To be precise, it is. Made from a completely stripped backbone."
Little Sherlock raised his eyebrows and added accurately, "Female, between the ages of eighteen and twenty-six or seven, and has not done any heavy physical labor. , the traces of exercise are not obvious, but she should often work or study at the desk.
“Maybe she is a student, or a painter. His background is neither too bad nor too good. He should be a native of Glass Island. There is a high probability that students who have just graduated have been bewitched. The fact that he was able to create extraordinary items just after he set foot on the Dusk Path shows that he had been practicing bone carving or carving techniques from time to time before entering the Dusk Path, and he had considerable experience in making extraordinary items.
"That is to say, his other identity is most likely one of the paths of balance, the path of beauty, and the path of transcendence that are good at making extraordinary items."
Said At this point, he glanced at Lulu, "I prefer the path of beauty. He may be a sculptor or a collector.
" Do you understand now, the fox's path to beauty? Allies on the road are unreliable. When their strength is low, they usually appear normal, but their perceptions are too sharp and their nerves are too sensitive. This makes it easy for them to lose control, go crazy, and become unstable in the advancement ceremony.factor.
“And a senior holder of the path of beauty can easily become indifferent to life. They value art more than law and morality. Otherwise, it would be difficult to observe the world with pure beauty. , it will be difficult to go deeper."
"Not necessarily."
Lulu subconsciously argued, "I also know very kind-hearted art masters."
< p>"I know," the newsboy nodded calmly, "I know it too. And you are an exception. Because in my opinion, you are not a standard believer in beauty. It's good that you attach great importance to morality."< /p>"You just said it was dangerous."
"There is no conflict."
The boy was too lazy to explain further, so he fell back into his own thoughts. , murmuring in a low voice, "When I go back, I have to go to the Supervisory Bureau to check the files on recently missing persons. Maybe it can bring me some inspiration."
"You are already an old man, why did you suddenly step on the road?" Did I go to the Dusk Path because I was seriously ill? Or was I suffering from a terminal illness because I felt that I had not long to live, and suddenly I felt a strong attachment to life. I hope I can live on. Is it because I have no students to inherit, or my descendants are too unsatisfactory and are robbing the inheritance?"< /p>
“If it’s an elderly artist from Glass Island,” the ignored Lulu mustered up her courage and suddenly whispered, “it might be old Lars. This summer, he was diagnosed with a bone tumor. "
"Old Lars"
Sherlock was stunned for a while, and it took him a long time to think of "Mr. Lars Graham, he is not for the Queen"
< p>At this point, he suddenly stopped talking.He looked at Lulu with deep eyes and stopped speaking.
Aiwas also glanced at her. .
Good guy.
This fully automatic box opener can also be used to open other people’s boxes.
Your Highness actually has this kind of machine. Function.
"Mr. Knight is not here yet. Maybe he didn't expect this, after all, he seemed to be a very careless person. "
Sherlock changed the topic and his attitude changed significantly. "But it doesn't matter if it's just us. Remember to follow me at all times."
Compared with giving priority to helping the knight and the fox before, Sherlock's strategy suddenly changed to giving priority to helping the fox and Lulu who were already on the scene.
Very soon Obviously. Sherlock should have guessed that Lulu is Princess Isabella. This is not difficult for him.
Fortunately, Sherlock is a loyal queen.
Aiwass knew that his father had been framed for something and got into trouble. Queen Sophia had specially pardoned his father's crimes and was kind to him.
Since then, Sherlock has been serving the royal family secretly. In some cases, the Queen will specially invite Sherlock to participate in the investigation. On the one hand, it is reliable and on the other hand, it is confidential. As a normal person, Sherlock would know more about some royal secrets.
At this point in time, this matter is still a secret. Even Isabella herself probably doesn't know.
That’s it
Aiwass reacted.
Before she changed history and appeared in this advancement ceremony that she should not have participated in, Princess Isabella's advancement ceremony was really won by relying on Sherlock. .
At this moment.
The three of them suddenly fell into silence at the same time.
Because in their hearts, a clear bell suddenly rang.
No one around them heard it, only the three of them heard it. After about a few seconds, another bell rang.
"This is the death knell."
The boy's expression suddenly became serious. "There is bad news or good news. Two people have been eliminated. You have passed the ceremony. The probability has become greater."
"Two people"
At this point, Lulu subconsciously looked at Aiwass next to her, "Are they also together?"
p>The first thing she wanted to say was, are they also a couple?
But the words were too shameful, so she swallowed them back before she could say them.
Aiwass asked the newsboy, "What does the death knell mean, being exposed, or death?"
"Death. If the identity is exposed, the remaining people will hear the roar. The sound of laughter."
Little Sherlock's speaking speed more than doubled, "It's only been an hour, and there are still three hours left to survive, and the murderer has already started to attack, and the two of them are together. There is no way to resist them. In the safe difficulty ceremony, we will only encounter one enemy, and it must not be too strong if we cooperate.
"Considering the bone sculpture. They may act alone. Except for the little girl on the path of love and the drug dealer on the path of balance, the combat effectiveness of the others is not bad.
"Unless they happen to meet the murderer together"
"That means that the monster can kill two people in a short period of time."
Aiwass added, "The speed was so fast that the other person didn't run away."
"It must have been a sneak attack."
Sherlock judged, "They didn't come." It means that the enemy is not waiting here. It is possible that this is a safe area, and the enemy will only be encountered at the last moment."
The young priest lowered his eyes slightly and added other possibilities, "It is also possible that foreigners have encountered the Strangler. After all, they don't understand Avalon."
"Well, you are right."< /p>
The boy nodded and looked around cautiously, "Anyway, be careful of shadows and corners. I will follow you in a moment to prevent me from being attacked and dragged away without you noticing."
"Where are we going?" Lulu asked softly.
"Pelican Bar Now give me a reason to take you to the Pelican Bar."
Hearing Sherlock's whispered instructions, the young priest's face immediately showed a warm and sunny smile.
"You are so polite, little sir. May the candlelight illuminate you."
Aiwass slightly let go of his voice and said in a voice that could be heard clearly by the people around him, "Thank you. You compliment my wife. It’s so hot, why don’t I buy you a drink? Do you want anything to drink?”
“Don’t give me a drink, Fox”
Little Sherlock. He lowered his voice and reminded, "I can only drink milk now. Alcohol will disrupt my intelligence and weaken my magic."
"How about milk? After all, you are still too young to drink alcohol."
"How about milk?" p>
Aiwass follows what is good.
"I know a bar."
Little Sherlock's volume also became normal, and he made a childlike voice, "We call it the Pelican Bar"
Hearing Sherlock's somewhat clumsy pretentious voice, Aiwass's expression suddenly became a little subtle.
You don’t have to act if you don’t know how to act, Mr. Sherlock.
Your artificial voice reminds me of another famous detective who has the body of a child but the mind of an adult.
But at this moment, they heard another long sound. Death knell.
Aiwass’s expression became solemn.
The third person died.
It was only less than two minutes since the previous two sounds.
"Wait a minute," little Sherlock's expression suddenly changed, and he no longer cared about his role, "If the situation is not right, he will die too quickly."
It's okay for the two of them to say that it is possible. They were attacked together. The second man was caught up and killed while escaping.
But when it is clear that there is only one enemy, three people can die one after another, which is very unreasonable
This is not a competition and killing ceremony. Nine people can kill each other in different ways. The identity comes to different places.
The difficulty of this ritual is obviously wrong
Is it because the existence of Sherlock or the bone sculpture has increased the enemy's strength
Soon, Aiwass realized To another thing:
The two people he thought died were foreigners. But that’s not necessarily the case with three.
The Cavaliers never came, maybe because he didn’t think of the Pelican Bar.
But he went to other places, and may have died on the road
Where did they go?
"Can't go to the Pelican Bar anymore , it may not be absolutely safe, and once we are blocked, we can’t escape. The knight has not come or is dead, so we can only rely on the detective’s spells, and the first-level spells are not strong enough.”
Aiwass immediately changed his plan and took over Sherlock's command skillfully
"We have to take a detour and hide first to see if anyone continues to die. I know a secret passage here. Follow I'll come." Please remember to collect it., the latest and fastest website for free reading without anti-theft
