Chapter 811 The Charm of Psychology (Please Vote and Subscribe!!!)
No matter how Deya interrogated, the burly man could not tell where Professor Moriarty was hiding, or he simply didn't know.
The burly man was Colonel Moran's confidant, if even he didn't know.
Sakaki Cheng frowned, Professor Moriarty hid too deep, like a lantern fish lurking in the abyss, only when the prey came to the door, would it show its fangs.
"Gentlemen, let's go find Holmes first."
Compared to the whereabouts of Professor Moriarty, Watson cared more about Holmes's safety:
"With Holmes' wisdom, it shouldn't be difficult to find Professor Moriarty."
Everyone agreed with this proposal. The weather was cold and everyone's clothes were wet. They had to find a warm place to change as soon as possible, otherwise they would easily catch a cold and get sick.
Of course, Sakaki Cheng didn't know if he would get sick in the game, but if he did.
What if the game was directly judged as a failure?
Quick battle and quick decision.
Thinking of this, Sakaki Cheng no longer hesitated, let everyone leave the stone house first, and left Deya Moran alone.
"Boss, things have come to this point."
Deya grabbed the knife on the table for cutting bread, walked behind the burly man, and said softly:
"I have no way back."
"Please tell me, do I really have a chance to replace Professor Moriarty?"
"Nothing is impossible in this world. Professor Moriarty was not born to rule the underground world. He got to where he is today by relying on ability and some luck. Both are indispensable."
Sakaki Cheng took a puff of cigar and narrowed his eyes:
"And what I can provide you is the latter."
Luck
Deya slowly clenched the handle of the knife and understood.
To accomplish something, you need luck, but at the same time, you also need to have the ability to withstand luck.
It's like buying a lottery ticket. The most important thing is not whether you can win the prize, but whether you buy a lottery ticket.
If you don't buy a lottery ticket at all, even if the goddess of luck comes, you can't win the prize. This is an inevitable order of precedence.
Standing on the wind, even pigs can fly, provided that you become the ‘pig’ who judges the situation and stands on the wind.
What Sakaki Cheng said was easy to understand. Deya knew that he was not as capable as Professor Moriarty, but
he wanted to give it a try.
Sakaki Cheng walked out of the stone house, and the screams of the burly man came from behind him.
After a while
Deya wiped the blood between his fingers with a handkerchief while silently stepping out of the wooden door. From this moment, Sakaki Cheng saw the ambition and desperate madness hidden in his eyes.
"Boss, Colonel Moran and his men are scattered, and the gathering place is here. I overheard it yesterday."
Deya handed over a palm-sized piece of paper with the terrain of the swamp drawn on it, and there were several dots deliberately marked with a red pen.
Sakaki Cheng glanced at it, put the map in his arms, said nothing, and walked towards the flickering kerosene lamp in front.
Deya had not taken out this map before. Even though he was pointed at by a gun, it still hid a secret, because
this was his last hope for a comeback.
According to Deya's estimation, Sakaki Makoto might not be able to kill the 30 people brought by Colonel Moran, after all, the other party had already arranged everything.
Once Sakaki Makoto died in the hands of Colonel Moran, he could take out this map and tell them that he was pretending to surrender, and maybe he could get a way out.
But
assuming that the map fell into Sakaki Makoto's hands, with the strength he showed, it didn't seem difficult to kill Colonel Moran and others.
Deya was a person who was very afraid of death, but along the way, his mentality slowly changed. After the fear of death disappeared, his ambition began to grow like weeds and could not be stopped.
Especially when he saw the burly man who used to rely on being Colonel Moran's confidant, showing off all day and not taking him seriously, facing the wall and thinking about his mistakes obediently.
The anger that he had been forbearing in the past suddenly broke out, and a crazy idea was born in his heart.
Hearing the sound of rapid breathing behind him, Makoto Sakaki laughed.
Squeak, squeak
Kid, who was walking at the back and pushing the cart with both hands, was puzzled when he saw Makoto Sakaki smiling for no reason:
"Is there anything to be happy about?"
"Of course, the plan to subvert the country finally succeeded, I am definitely happy."
"Subvert the country?"
Kid looked back at Deya who was following not far behind, confused:
"Didn't the subversion succeed a long time ago?"
"That was false, including his recognition of Miss Mori as his godmother, all of which were acting for us."
"Ah?!"
"Don't be so surprised, I thought you had already seen it."
"No, he is..."
Thinking of Deya's extremely attentive appearance, Kid said with a smile:
"He is His acting is so realistic, he is just a scared traitor."
"Yes, Deya is afraid of death, and everyone can see it."
Sakaki Makoto nodded:
"But do you still remember that on the train, he took out a valuable pocket watch and said he would give it to Miss Maori as a gift, but suddenly regretted it in the end?"
"I remember."
"This shows that he is not only afraid of death, but also regards money as his life."
Without pausing, Sakaki Makoto continued:
"When I took him to Lord Baskerville's estate to look for Holmes, he handed me a cigar of this year. Do you know what this means?"
".Cigars, he likes to smoke?"
"No, the cigars in the cigarette box are full. A person who really loves smoking will never have a full cigarette box. Cigars are just a symbol of his identity, and"
Sakaki Makoto sneered:
"This year's new cigars are expensive. Deya, a man who values money, is willing to spend a lot of money to buy this luxury that he doesn't need. This reflects that he not only values money, is greedy for life and afraid of death, but is also a vain hypocrite who likes to be flattered."
"If you cut your hand with a branch, you have to go back and break the branch. This is a manifestation of being unable to suppress your anger and being irritable."
"Let me ask, if a greedy, greedy, vain person is forced to blackmail, look down on, or even verbally abused and threatened, will he be furious?"
"Could it be."
Kid With eyes wide open, he said in disbelief:
"Daya has always been dissatisfied with Colonel Moran and others?"
"Yes, but he knows that he is not a match for Colonel Moran, so he swallows his anger and does not show it."
Shaking his head, Sakaki Cheng smiled:
"Human nature is difficult to guess and very simple."
"The fear in Deya's heart comes from his own lack of ability, so he dare not resist, but when he has the ability to retaliate. For example, just now, I asked the burly man to take off his clothes and face the wall with a desperate look. Do you know what kind of light burst out of Deya's eyes in an instant?"
In Kidd's dull eyes, Sakaki Cheng patted his shoulder and said earnestly:
"Anger, excitement, excitement. It's like the devil's mumbling, stirring up the darkest desires in your heart."
"This is the charm of psychology."
