Chapter 577 Showing Off Each Other’s Acting Skills

Perhaps only he himself knows the reason why Toru Amuro is so rude.

Irene Adler's much-anticipated performance was suddenly suspended before the scheduled time, much to the dismay of many young gentlemen who had come specially to catch a glimpse of the beauty.

At the same time, an exquisitely decorated one-horse carriage drove out from the back door of the theater and headed towards the deep darkness.

The end of the road they were traveling on was London's famous King's Cross train station.

Although the people on the carriage were cautious, the destination of the trip still revealed the identity of the carriage owner.

Anyone who knows a little bit about the London entertainment industry knows that Ms. Irene Adler plans to take a train to Yorkshire to meet old friends after the show.

Therefore, not long after the carriage left the theater, a small tail followed behind.

The carriage maintained an unhurried speed without any problems and drove slowly towards King's Cross Station.

When they approached their destination, the carriage suddenly slowed down and then stopped.

Because in front of the road, another carriage is standing there. Atop the tall horse, a young man with a handsome face was watching here with an indifferent expression.

Both parties didn't speak, they just stayed in a stalemate, and the atmosphere around them gradually became tense.

After a while, the door of Irene Adler's carriage opened, and a well-dressed man stepped out of the carriage.

When the door opened, you could vaguely see a lady wearing a gorgeous feather hat sitting in the car, but her appearance was unclear, and even her figure was blurry.

"Long time no see, Professor Moriarty." Toru Amuro smiled slightly at the man.

The person in the carriage opposite was clearly Asano Nobushige, but Professor Moriarty had always been a person who knew how to manage his expressions in the past, but today he seemed to be showing a cold expression because he was in a bad mood.

In fact, Nobuhiro is not pretending to be indifferent. There was still a dull pain in his chest, and he really couldn't hide the pain while smiling.

Nobushige put his pipe in his mouth, blew out a smoke ring in the style of a London gentleman, and then said: "It is indeed a long time since we last met. I noticed that you seem to have changed your partner, I mean... you have changed a lady, yes ?"

Amuro Toru's eyes fell back slightly, but he quickly focused his attention on Nobushige again. He said calmly: "I have always been surrounded by companions. To be honest, I also regard you as my companion."

"Ha." Xinfan said with a sneer, "I wonder what that good doctor's expression will be like when he learns that he and I have the same status in your heart."

"How can you be the same? You are my friend, my opponent, and my nemesis."

Amuro Toru's expression was so serious that for a moment Nobuhiro couldn't even tell who he was talking about, Moriarty? Mezcal? Or... Zhu Fu Jingguang?

This kind of dazzle only lasted for a moment, and even Amuro Toru, who was face to face, didn't notice it.

Nobushige retorted: "But he is your assistant detective."

"Not anymore."

"Oh, that's right. I heard that he is already married. I haven't even had time to say congratulations yet. How was the wedding?"

Dr. Watson played by Dr. Ali in the game is married, but in reality he still doesn’t know where his childhood sweetheart is.

Pitiful.

"Thanks to you, it's great." Toru Amuro replied calmly, and then asked, "When are you going to get married? I think your wedding will be grander than his."

Nobuhiro tilted his head and thought carefully for a moment before answering: "As a friend of the great detective Sherlock Holmes, of course I can't do it earlier than you, otherwise I can't laugh at you and enter the grave of love."

"No wonder." Toru Amuro murmured, "No wonder you can block my way home so leisurely."

"This is not the way to Baker Street."

"I didn't say I wanted to go back home to Baker Street." Toru Amuro shrugged, seeming to enjoy playing Sherlock Holmes, "What about you? Why are you staying here so late?"

Nobushige's gaze drifted through Amuro and toward the inside of the carriage, but the door of the carriage was closed tightly, and the glass windows were blocked by opaque curtains, so he couldn't see what was going on inside at all.

Nobuhiro didn't care, but asked: "Compared to me, shouldn't you care more about where Jack the Ripper is? How about we play a game, and you can guess where he is."

"Charlie Cross Station." Toru Amuro gave this answer without thinking.

Nobuhiro's face changed slightly, but he still spoke calmly: "What a surprise. Miss Adler's destination is King's Cross Station. Why would I let the killer go to Charlie Cross Station?"

"That's because you thought I would let someone else pretend to be Miss Adler." As he spoke, Toru Amuro turned around and opened the carriage door, "I showed my face when I left the theater just to tell you that I would personally follow the carriage. Operation Carriage. Others may think that Holmes must have entered and exited together with Irene Adler, but you are different. Crime expert Professor Moriarty must be more convinced that this is Holmes' smoke bomb."

Looking at Irene Adler walking out of the carriage, Nobushige's expression remained unchanged.

"So while you personally intercepted the carriage between me and the fake Irene, you also sent Jack the Ripper to assassinate the real Irene. You probably thought Jack the Ripper had succeeded."

Hearing this, Xinfan pretended to be helpless and spread his hands: "As expected, it's you, Sherlock. I'm willing to lose in this round. But even so, what did you win?

"Without you, Jack the Ripper's identity would not be exposed even if he missed. I still have countless opportunities to kill Miss Adler. But can you always protect her? I don't think Miss Adler is happy to be killed by you. Always protect me, right?"

Toru Amuro nodded in agreement: "You are absolutely right. That's why I said that you have underestimated this era and underestimated many people who you despise. Take a good look at it. Those children may bring you unexpected things. surprise."

Having said that, Toru Amuro didn't look at Nobushige again. He helped Irene Adler get into the car like a gentleman, intending to ignore Professor Moriarty's threat and leave directly.

Professor Moriarty's followers want to do something, but are prevented by his master.

Nobushige looked at Toru Amuro calmly, his eyes indifferent. In contrast, his face hidden in the dim light became worse and worse.

It seems that it is almost reaching its limit.

Although he didn't know the reason, Nobuhiro could feel that the abnormal Albert was dead. Affected by this change, the pain in his chest became more severe and spread from his heart to his limbs.

The skin all over his body felt as if it had been soaked in icy water in the dead of winter. It was stiff with cold, but his cheeks felt strangely hot.

Nobuhiro has never felt the passage of life so clearly as now, not even when he suspended his own death four years ago.

If this is fake, then the "cocoon" experience is too real. If this is true, he...
