Chapter 817 Trap (Please Vote and Subscribe!!!)

"Sir Deya, why did you shoot?"

Renya Karasuma, who arrived a step behind, asked:

"Colonel Moran knew Professor Moriarty's secret, at least we should ask him before we take action."

"You can't really blame me"

Deya scratched his head in embarrassment:

"He wanted to resist just now, and you saw him suddenly stand up. I was scared for a moment, so I shot."

This wording is inevitably a bit far-fetched, but Makoto Sakaki and Renya Karasuma did not hear what Deya and Colonel Moran said, so there is no evidence.

Once Colonel Moran died, everyone's plan was disrupted.

After returning to the hillside and telling Holmes and others about the matter, Holmes pondered for a while and said:

"If you just want to find the location of Professor Moriarty, it is actually not difficult."

"Professor Moriarty is also a nobleman in name. He often appears in gatherings of upper-class people and even has his own mansion in London. In addition, he occasionally goes to the university for classes."

"However, based on my understanding of him, Professor Moriarty is very likely to be in Dartmoor now."

"In Dartmoor?"

Sakaki Cheng frowned:

"What is he doing here?"

A commander who lives behind the scenes is not suitable for charging on the front line. If Dartmoor is compared to the front line, then the safest place should be London in the rear.

"Because."

Holmes showed a meaningful smile:

"Professor Moriarty, I really want to see my embarrassing failure."

"I have fought with him many times and studied under him, so I know this man's character very well."

"Rather than saying that Professor Moriarty is a coward who dares not show his true face, it is better to say that he is a cautious big man, and I, Sherlock Holmes, is like a nail in the horse's hoof, making him unable to sleep or eat."

"When he has planned everything, how can he hide in the back and wait for news?"

"Besides, when everyone thinks he is hiding in London, then he must not be in London."

Sakaki Makoto and Xiao Ai looked at each other and thought of something at the same time.

"Holmes, where do you think Professor Moriarty will hide?"

Conan asked.

"You seem to have come to Dartmoor by train."

Holmes changed the subject and concluded:

"Professor Moriarty is on that train."

"Ah?!"

"It's a simple deduction. There is only one train coming to Dartmoor tonight. If Professor Moriarty wants to come to watch the ceremony, he must not miss this train."

With a smile on his face, Holmes said calmly:

"From the beginning to the end, Jack the Ripper was a bait. In addition to luring you onto the train, he also served as a distraction."

"But we checked the carriages thoroughly and didn't find Professor Moriarty!"

"No, no, no, you must have missed something."

Holmes shook his head:

"Think back, what happened on the train at that time?"

Conan fell into deep thought. After they boarded the train, they immediately went to find the conductor, then checked the carriages one by one, and finally went to the restaurant, where they met Makoto Sakaki and found Jack the Ripper.

No problem!

To talk about the omissions.

A flash of inspiration came to Conan's mind, and he looked up suddenly and said in horror:

"We didn't check the conductor's room!"

"That's right."

Holmes sighed:

"At that time, you must have thought that the conductor was innocent, and subconsciously ignored the room he came out of, but you didn't know..."

"The conductor is also Professor Moriarty's subordinate."

"I'm afraid his mission is different from Deya and others. He is only responsible for protecting Professor Moriarty. Apart from that, he will not intervene in anything that happens."

"Well, if I'm not mistaken, when you caught Jack the Ripper and got off the train, the conductor didn't call the police immediately."

"Yes, but that's not Is it because Mr. Sakaki Makoto saved him? "

"This is the country of 涶, not a charity relief house."

Holmes said solemnly:

"The reason why the conductor did not call the police immediately was to cover up Professor Moriarty's departure. As for the gratitude you said for saving his life, it was just an excuse to confuse others."

"This, this."

With shock in his eyes, Conan said in disbelief:

"Since Professor Moriarty already knew that the plan had failed, why didn't he warn Colonel Moran and others in advance and take advantage of us?"

"Hush"

Holmes closed his eyes and said:

"Did you hear any sound?"

Conan was confused and didn't understand what Holmes meant by asking this question suddenly.

But.

Sakaki Makoto's face suddenly changed.

Although he didn't hear any sound, he understood what Holmes meant.

"Police! The police are coming here!"

Kid, who has an IQ of 400, reacted quickly. He dealt with the police's daughter every day, and of course he knew what methods Professor Moriarty used.

"This is a series of tricks!"

Kid wiped the rain off his forehead and said tremblingly:

"First of all, whether the nobles on the train are Professor Moriarty's men or not, they all bought the tickets legally!"

"We didn't have tickets, so we forced our way on the train, and we killed so many nobles."

"The police don't care what plan Professor Moriarty has, they will definitely come out in full force to arrest us!"

"Yes."

Holmes said faintly:

"If you don't shoot, you'll die. If you shoot, you'll still die."

"Do you know why Professor Moriarty sent out nobles?"

"It's not because they are agile, but because of their social status!"

"Civilians killing nobles is a provocation to the dignity of the royal family. The police will not let it go. The front page of tomorrow's morning newspaper will definitely be yours."

"If I were Professor Moriarty, I wouldn't feel sorry for those men, but would happily report your location to the police, so that the police could come to Sir Baskerville's manor and catch the criminals in the act."

This time, Sakaki Makoto and his men suddenly realized.

It turned out that

From the moment they stepped on the train, they had fallen into the deadly trap set by Professor Moriarty.

Because of Jack the Ripper's repeated crimes, countless policemen gathered in London. This time, dozens of nobles were killed, which was bound to alarm the royal family of the Kingdom of London.

Let alone Sherlock Holmes, even if Queen Victoria was there, she couldn't save them!

Squeak!

On the small road at the foot of the mountain in the distance, countless stars of lights suddenly lit up, stretching as far as the eye could see, and vaguely, the sound of sirens could be heard.

"Oh no. The police are coming! Run!"
