Chapter 823 Lend Me a Steel Wire (Please Vote and Subscribe!!!)

"Have all the manpower been arranged?"

"Yes, as per your order, five snipers have been ambushing around the tavern."

The conductor bowed respectfully and responded to the old man.

"Tell them not to shoot in a hurry and wait for my signal."

"clear."

The train conductor turned around and walked out of the tavern. The old man was sitting in the hall, staring at the flickering lights on the table, and was stunned.

At 6:30 in the morning, a box carriage drove into the streets of the town.

In the early morning, pedestrians on the morning shift began to appear on the street. Some people who knew about the train incident were spreading gossip.

No police came forward to stop him, and Lestrade took away most of Dartmoor's police force, leaving only three or four men on patrol.

At 6:45 in the morning, the box carriage passed in front of Jellosi's Tavern and drove straight past without stopping.

At 6:45 in the morning, the box carriage turned across the street and stopped at the back door of Jellosi's Tavern.

A man in black wearing a peaked cap got off the carriage, with the brim of his hat held low, entered the hotel behind the tavern, and went up to the roof.

A few minutes later, the man returned the same way, took off his hat, and said to Xiao Ai who was waiting in the car:

"Are you going in?"

"want."

With a firm gaze and an unquestionable tone, Xiao Ai jumped out of the carriage after seeing her boyfriend deal with the sniper arranged upstairs. He came to the closed back door of the tavern, checked it out, and said:

"Locked."

"It's okay, I can open this old lock."

Sakaki held out his hand:

"Lend me a wire."

"Where did I get the wire?"

Looking down, Sakaki looked at the fluffy white gauze skirt Xiao Ai was wearing and said:

"It's just inside your skirt. I touched it before. It's filled with soft steel wire."

"."

Holding her forehead and sighing, Xiao Ai didn't know what to say. She silently tore open one side of her skirt, groped for a while, and sure enough, she pulled out a long steel wire from inside.

The steel wires were used to support the skirt. After Xiao Ai pulled out one wire, the skirt suddenly collapsed, destroying the overall beauty.

She simply didn't stop doing anything and took advantage of Sakaki's effort to open the lock with the wire and pulled out all the wires in the skirt.

In the blink of an eye.

The large tutu becomes the shape of a wedding dress.

Click!

There was a spring tripping sound from inside the lock, and Sakaki turned the handle and gently opened the back door.

"Let's go, why are you changing clothes?"

“Easy to move around.”

Like a medieval princess, Xiao Ai held up her skirt and walked into the tavern majestically. Sakaki glanced behind him to make sure no one noticed them, then quickly followed.

There were countless wooden boxes piled up at the back door of the tavern, filled with hay and spirits. They were so crowded that only one person could pass through.

pass backstage

The two of them came behind the counter. As long as they went out from here, they would be in the tavern lobby.

"Although I have dealt with the enemies at the back door in advance, there are still three snipers at the front door. We will do this later."

Putting it next to Xiao Ai's ear, Sakaki whispered his plan.

"Are you sure you want to do this?"

After hearing the plan, Xiao Ai looked at him in surprise:

"The other party is Professor Moriarty, Holmes's biggest enemy!"

"I'm not Sherlock Holmes."

Sakaki smiled and touched Xiao Ai's head, then opened the wooden door leading to the hall.

The sound of the door opening rang in his ears, and the old man retracted his gaze from the roof and looked at the man walking out from behind the counter.

"Long time no see, Professor Moriarty."

Sakaki held the revolver, pushed open the baffle of the counter, sat on the chair opposite Professor Moriarty, glanced at the ale on the table, and asked:

"Is this for me?"

"It doesn't have to be you, it can also be Sherlock Holmes."

Professor Moriarty said expressionlessly:

"I prefer it to be Lianye."

"It seems that you already know who your student is."

"It is precisely because I know who he is that I accept him as my disciple."

"In that case."

Raising his eyebrows, Sakaki asked:

"Why did you abandon Colonel Moran, who has been with you for many years?"

"You are wrong, I never abandoned him."

Professor Moriarty shook his head:

"My plan is meticulous and there will be no mistakes, but"

"You are indeed the biggest variable."

"Is a mere Jack the Ripper worth risking your life for?"

"Jack the Ripper?"

Sakaki smiled brightly.

Professor Moriarty has misunderstood again.

He never cared about Jack the Ripper, and he just had to do it because it was a necessary condition for clearing the game.

original

Sakaki Cheng had no intention of paying attention to Professor Moriarty, what kind of underground organization, just let them go. He was not a savior, so how could he take care of so many other things?

but.

Professor Moriarty used Jack the Ripper to frame them and blow up the opera house, causing Hattori Heiji to be forced to quit the game.

It touched Sakaki's minefield.

He has never been a generous person. On the contrary, he is a bit petty and very vindictive.

"If you catch Jack the Ripper, you can get a medal from the king himself. No one wants this honor."

Professor Moriarty took a sip of the malt wine, feeling a little confused:

"Now that we've caught him, why not just hand him over to the police and take credit?"

"You know there is a trap in Dartmoor, but you still want to get into it, but it doesn't do any good. Should I call you smart or stupid?"

"It's stupid, people who show their sharpness usually don't end well."

Sakaki shrugged:

"I have no intention of handing Jack the Ripper over to the police because my real target is not him. Or rather it was him at first, but he changed midway."

"You're targeting me."

Grinning, a dangerous light flashed in Professor Moriarty's eyes. He straightened up and transformed from a dying old man into Professor Moriarty informing the underground world:

"What good will it do you to fight against me?"

"Is it true that only profit can drive you in the world?"

"But you should consider your interests first!"

Professor Moriarty sneered:

"Even if you don't get any benefits yourself, you must still worry about whether the interests of others will be harmed. Otherwise, those whose interests will be harmed will definitely become a stumbling block for you!"

"Kelian Ye has abandoned me as a teacher and turned to you."

"What kind of magic did you cast to make them follow you regardless of life or death? Money? Power?"

The crutch kept tapping the ground, and Professor Moriarty asked something that puzzled him.

He has lived in desire, money, and power all his life. He knows what most people want, but there are always some people.

It's something he can't bewitch.

For example, Sherlock Holmes.

Professor Moriarty knew the reason why Holmes rejected him, but he did not know the reason why Karasuma Renya helped Sakaki Makoto.

"You claim to understand human nature, but you don't know that your so-called understanding is limited to so-called desires, which are animal nature."

Sakaki squinted his eyes and played with the revolver:

"The reason why people are called people is because they understand shame and understand the humanity that transcends bestiality."
