Chapter 937 Chapter 16: Old Rival
"Well, the time has come."
The short man finally spoke.
He tapped the ground lightly with the cane in his hand.
"Let the ceremony begin."
Then two tall, naked men wearing hoods walked out from the back hall.
Each of them held a huge machete in their hands.
There were still blood stains on the knife that had not been wiped clean.
This causes the knife to look somewhat rusty.
The two men walked straight towards Fang Haruriko.
Leia wanted to stop them, but found that she couldn't do anything to the two men.
"...Agreement, these two people, are both human...?"
“Puff——”
Sherlock smiled, looking at Rhea teasingly.
"How can an agreement be so inconvenient? Throw away your agreement. You can do it, right? Just like this."
She suddenly snatched the knife from the female police officer and walked up to the two big men in three or two steps.
With a flick of his hand and a slash of his knife, two heads fell directly to the ground.
"Sherlock!! What have you done!"
Leia's scream was heartbreaking.
Because she knew that once she really took action against humans.
Then Sherlock would have no way out.
"You're still willing to call me Sherlock... My little cutie, you're really more naive than humans, robot baby."
The old policeman was so scared that his face turned pale.
The short man also gave him a look.
"What on earth have you brought upon me?"
"I, I don't know. I thought they were...investigators sent from Tokyo."
"Idiots...these two are not human at all!"
Sherlock, his face covered in blood, turned slightly and looked at the short man with an extremely weird smile.
"Now it's time to get serious. Bring out your mountain god."
"I don't care who you are, in front of the Mountain God, you will be doomed!"
After saying that, the short man suddenly pulled off the talisman that was attached to your headless warrior's breastplate.
At this moment, the entire space began to tremble.
Then I saw the man in armor slowly stand up and draw the long sword from his waist.
"Then I'll play along with you for a while longer." Sherlock twisted his neck and revealed an extremely ferocious smile.
Her body moved extremely fast, and the dagger in her hand collided fiercely with the headless warrior's long sword.
A spark flew from between the two blades.
The enormous force caused Sherlock's bionic body to start making crackling sounds.
"So you're so strong?"
The girl held the dagger in one hand and held her wrist with the other.
But even so, the samurai sword was gradually approaching her neck.
"Hahahahaha, no more playing around, I never thought you could imagine such a monster in your world."
At this moment, Sherlock's brain seemed to sense something.
She chuckled as if she heard someone talking.
Then she turned her head sharply and looked at Leia.
No, it's behind Leia.
"Mr. Yagyu, it's your turn."
Swish——
As a ray of light passed by Leia's side, Yagyu rushed towards the armored monster like a gust of wind.
In a flash, the armored monster's long sword was chopped into pieces by Yagyu.
"Huh, you are still better. After all, it seems that her plan did not take your combat power into consideration." Sherlock shook his hands and then looked at Leia.
"How about it?"
"...What, how?"
"Given your character, you would definitely not take your defeated opponent, Mr. Sword Soul, seriously, right?"
Leia still stood there stiffly, completely unaware of what was happening.
"Okay, this scene is ruined."
Sherlock sighed, threw away the dagger, and walked straight towards Rhea.
With every step she took, everything around her turned into shadows. Only Yagyu was still holding the knife, looking at Leia vigilantly.
"You've been reminding me all along who I am, and telling me who I should be. But you've also been using your brain to constantly influence me, trying to shape me into someone else. Do you really think I haven't noticed anything?"
The old policeman, Fang Chunlizi, the female policeman and the short man.
One by one, they all turned into phantoms and disappeared into the air.
Then the entire hall began to twist and disintegrate, as if...
Data space.
"Sherlock, what are you talking about? There's something wrong with your brain. You look like..."
"Like who you want me to be."
Sherlock walked up to Rhea and looked her in the eye.
"Or rather, you want to mold me into... you."
"I'm right... Professor Moriarty."
When the entire hall was deconstructed, only darkness remained.
Yagyu looked at everything around him coldly.
It seems that he can't believe it.
There is actually such a space.
"You mean... I'm the abnormal one?" Rhea looked at Sherlock blankly.
"You mean... am I contaminated?"
"Hahahaha, Professor, I didn't realize your acting skills were so good before. No, I'm not saying you're contaminated, I'm saying..."
"You are Moriarty."
......
The air fell into a kind of silence.
Leia slowly took a step back, her body trembling, covering her face tightly, as if she couldn't believe it.
"No... no no, you're talking nonsense, I..."
"I keep impersonating you to make you feel successful, Professor."
“You’re talking nonsense!!”
"So now, can you answer a question for me?"
"Stop talking about it! Stop talking about it! I don't believe it!!"
"Did I act like one, Professor?"
Buzz——
The train whistle suddenly sounded all around.
Yagyu discovered that in a blink of an eye, they had arrived in a carriage.
His already not very smart brain was now even more unable to think.
But he was an insignificant person.
The culprit was still trembling with his hands covering his face.
But soon the trembling caused by fear turned into a suppressed laughter.
"you......"
Her fingers slowly separated, revealing a pupil.
"You acted very convincingly, Mr. Sherlock."
When she put her hands down.
Rhea's face has completely changed into Moriarty's.
She stretched and took a deep breath.
"I've been holding it in for so long. Finally~ I can relax."
The girl paced back and forth, humming a ballad, and then sat down on the train seat.
"Tell me, Mr. Detective, when did you discover this?"
"Do you remember that you disconnected from me and had a private chat with Mr. Li Muhan?"
"Yeah~ I remember~ what happened?"
"Oh." Sherlock also sat down beside her. She raised her hand and took out a pipe, then put it in her mouth.
"Because we are the children of Prometheus, we have attracted worldwide attention. So, in order to prevent the communication between me and Leia from being stolen, Leia proposed to build a secret line."
"And the port you reconnected to... was Eden 022's public port. In other words, you've been communicating with me publicly using the full frequency band ever since. This is a mistake a girl who values privacy would never make."
"That's too much~ You mean, I'm not a girl~ I'm just a little careless~"
Sherlock ignored Moriarty's whining.
He smiled and asked, "So, it started from the moment the visualization device was connected, right?"
"bingo~"
"Although it's hard for me to imagine what kind of external device could infect you, the facts are before me, and I have to admit it."
"Pfft~ You're wrong this time. You're wrong, Mr. Detective."
"Then..." Sherlock exhaled a puff of smoke.
"I'd like to hear more about it."
"What really affected Leia and injected my consciousness into her body was..."
"Li Muhan."
