Sakaki's right hand gently stroked Louise's neck, and his left hand went around its strong jaw, gently patting the mane, and recited a series of unknown 'spells' in his mouth.
Gradually, Kidd found that the dark horse Louise seemed to have lowered her guard and was no longer as resistant as before.
subsequently
Sakaki took out a carrot from the saddle and fed it to Louise.
After eating the carrots, Louise actually took the initiative to nudge Sakaki Makoto with her head and snorted.
So Sakaki took out another carrot and gave it to it.
While Louise was concentrating on enjoying the food.
Sakaki untied the reins from the tree, stepped on the stirrups, jumped up, and landed firmly on the horse's back.
Louise was suddenly startled. Half of the carrot in her mouth fell to the ground, and her front hooves were raised, showing signs of losing control.
"Xu~~"
Fortunately, Sakaki grabbed the reins in time and rubbed its neck to calm it down.
"Don't scare me."
Kidd, who was hiding behind the tree, breathed a sigh of relief before he dared to come out.
"You can go."
With his legs clamped on the horse's belly, Sakaki pulled the reins. Louise turned around obediently and walked towards the door with a clatter.
"Hey, hey, I haven't mounted my horse yet!"
"There is no place for you!"
4.30am, Scotland Yard tube station.
"Ha~~~"
Kidd raised his head and let out a long yawn, his eyes began to turn red.
The last time he slept was yesterday. Staying up late for a long time made him feel as if his body was hollowed out and weak.
"I said, since we all have money, can we find a hotel to stay in?"
Kidd looked through his wallet and found 2 pounds in it. This was a lot of money, enough for them to live comfortably for two days.
"Yeah, it's not good if the game is too real. Time flows at the same speed as the real world, and it's destined to be a boring time."
Under Louise's resentful gaze, Sakaki chewed the carrot and finished the sweetest part before passing the remaining half to the black horse beneath him.
Sakaki Makoto was able to compete with a horse for food.
no way.
He is hungry too!
At the end of the 19th century, there were no fences in the London Underground stations, and they used old-fashioned steam locomotives. The speed was much faster than horse-drawn carriages, but the ride price was not cheap. They were usually reserved for nobles and royal relatives.
The interior of the empty subway station is like a fortress, or the environment is worse than a fortress. The ventilation openings are narrow, and the smoke from the burning steam engine piles up at the top of the tunnel and cannot be dissipated. There is an unpleasant smoky smell everywhere.
Fortunately, Conan and the others did not go deep and just lay on the chairs outside the subway station to rest. Many ragged beggars gathered in the corner. The staff responsible for the inspection was fast asleep. Before the first subway started operating, no one was there. Drive away these homeless people.
Da. Da. Da.
A pure black thoroughbred horse attracted the attention of the beggars. They raised their heads blankly, wondering what the distinguished mounted policeman was doing here. After all, a patrol policeman had already asked them.
There were patches of cinders underfoot, and the weak light of the kerosene lamp was like fireflies dotted in the forest, illuminating a group of people with sallow faces and thin muscles.
The meeting place agreed by Sakaki Makoto and Conan was the subway station near Scotland Yard. He arrived as promised and kept looking for Conan and others.
The sound of horse hooves echoed in the subway. Kidd pushed away Louise's protruding head, took a bite of carrot and muttered:
"Where did they go?"
"You won't hide anymore!"
These words reminded Sakaki. He glanced at the police uniform on his body and found that the surroundings were extremely dark. He could only vaguely make out the outline of a person. Don't worry about his appearance. It was impossible.
Think of this
"Take off your police uniform."
Sakaki unbuttoned his police uniform, took off his high-top helmet, and threw the standard police uniform to the beggar aside, revealing his original suit.
Now that they have left Scotland Yard, there is no need for them to continue pretending to be police officers.
After changing back into his own clothes, Sakaki returned the same way he came, borrowed a kerosene lamp, and walked the road in the future again.
"Makoto?"
A small figure ran out from the corner, it was a miniature version of Miss Miyano.
Before Conan and others recognized Sakaki, she was the first to recognize him:
"You're back!"
"Well, I'm back."
Turning over and dismounting, Sakaki bent down and picked up his girlfriend, smiling and saying:
"I know you didn't recognize me just now."
"Conan told us to hide. He said we couldn't be discovered by the police."
Hui Yuan Ai looked at the dark horse curiously and asked:
"Where did you steal this horse?"
"In the Royal Mounted Police, the person seems to have a good background. He seems to be a captain or something."
"The Royal Mounted Police have a pathological love for their horses. If you steal his horse, he will fight you tooth and nail!"
"That's better than walking on two legs."
Sakaki glanced at Conan and the others who were walking out of the shadows, and waved to them:
"Let's go, I just got some money, let's go stay in a hotel."
"You even rob NPCs of their money?!"
"It's precisely because it's the NPC's money that I want to steal it!"
Conan and the others were dumbfounded, their minds had not yet turned around.
At 5 o'clock in the morning, Sakaki and others found a small hotel with a nice decoration. After paying 5 shillings, they also provided breakfast and horse feeding services, which was extremely considerate.
There were 7 people checking in at one time, and the proprietress happily served the unsold potato soup. After taking a sip, Sakaki finally understood why it couldn't be sold.
There was only salt in the soup and a few large potatoes.
It was so late and there was no need for a hot shower. Lying on the hotel bed, Sakaki held his girlfriend in his arms and fell asleep without even taking off his clothes.
It wasn't until 10 a.m. the next day that he was woken up by a knock on the door.
"Read the newspaper quickly!"
After opening the door, Kidd, Conan, and Hattori rushed in, slapped a newspaper that smelled like ink on the table, and said:
"Professor Moriarty's message is here!"
Rubbing his brows, Sakaki looked at the newspaper and found an unknown message in the advertising section:
[Going to clean the stage of the opera house tonight, M’s message to J]
Compared to other ads, this one is placed in a corner with unclear meaning.
"M is the shortened version of Moriarty's name, and J stands for Jack the Ripper!"
Conan said excitedly:
"It must be Professor Moriarty's code to Jack the Ripper!"
"and"
He flipped through the newspaper and found a piece of news at the back:
"Tonight, there is a performance at the Opera House!"
"The starring role is Irene Adler, the icon of the Warsaw royal opera!"
"Irene Adler?"
Sakaki was shocked:
"Isn't she the woman Holmes respects most?"
"Moriarty actually used her as bait?"
