Game time is 2:30 a.m., outside the poker club.
"Hey! Hurry up, we have to catch Jack the Ripper!"
Policemen wearing high helmets patrolled the streets in teams of two. Royal Policemen riding tall horses could be seen everywhere. They would stop and interrogate pedestrians when they saw them.
"It looks like the Scotland Yard police are getting serious."
Hiding in the shadows, Sakaki Makoto and his companions watched every move on the street and whispered:
"How are we going to get to the Poker Club when they're patrolling like this?"
There are two conditions for mission failure: one is getting injured, the other is being caught by the police.
As "aliens", Makoto Sakaki and others are unable to prove their identities. Once they are stopped and questioned by the police, they will inevitably be treated as suspicious persons and taken to the police station for interrogation.
There are many police officers outside the poker club now, and the security is tight, so it is not easy to break in.
"Don't worry, there's a path nearby."
Sakaki Makoto took out the map of London given to him by Mrs. Hudson, on which every street and alley was marked. It was drawn by Holmes with the help of the Baker Street Squad.
Who knows London better than a street kid?
Even the local police in London would never have thought...
Behind them, there was actually a small path that could bypass the main road.
Following the path marked on the map, Makoto Sakaki and others successfully avoided the police's sight and arrived at the back door of the poker club.
The front door is full of policemen, so you definitely can't enter from there...
Fortunately...
The back door was poorly guarded and empty.
"I'm small, so I'll go explore the way first."
Conan took the lead and stood up:
"You wait here."
"It's too dangerous to go alone. I'll go with you."
Sakaki Makoto handed Haibara Ai to Mouri Ran and pulled out the Remington M1858 from his waist.
Colonel Moran is the key to finding the elusive Professor Moriarty. Without Professor Moriarty, Jack the Ripper would be like a bat roosting in the dark, extremely difficult to find.
In summary...
The poker club is related to the next step of the game and cannot be taken lightly.
Leaving a few people guarding the back door, Sakaki Makoto and Conan carefully pushed open the back door and sneaked in.
"Damn it, why don't you confess now!!!"
As soon as they entered the tavern, Makoto Sakaki and Conan heard a loud roar.
The two were startled and quickly alerted. They walked into the tavern in the dark, poked half of their heads out from the corner, and quickly glanced...
"What the hell, why are they here?"
"Damn, it's all your fault for leaving them as hostages!"
The future four-member group of young stars, led by Hideki Moroboshi, Kidd...
With his hands tied and his face masked, he was tied tightly to a chair, staring at the ferocious Colonel Moran and others opposite him with a look of horror.
"Hurry up and tell me!"
Colonel Moran, with silver hair, held a golden revolver against Kidd's forehead:
"Who are you, Sherlock Holmes?!"
"Look, Moran, they're holding wrenches!"
"You really want to assassinate me?"
“Woo, woo, woo!”
Kidd shook his head like a rattle and kept backing away, as if he wanted to say something.
"Moran, you tied his mouth, he can't say anything even if he wants to..."
A sleazy man with a mustache next to him said:
"Let's untie his mouth first and listen to what he wants to say."
“What a joke!”
Colonel Moran glared and said angrily:
"There are police officers everywhere outside. If we untie his mouth, what if he starts yelling and attracts the police?"
The man with a mustache immediately spoke.
"call..."
Seeing this, Conan breathed a sigh of relief:
"It seems that they have no intention of killing Kidd for the time being. How can we rescue them?"
"Kid, this kid..."
Sakaki Makoto muttered while gritting his teeth:
"It didn't go according to plan..."
"Plan? You made a plan for him?"
"Nonsense, why else would I let him stay in the tavern?"
Rolling his eyes, Sakaki Makoto told Kid the plan he had given him:
"Originally, I wanted him to find an excuse to get away after we left the tavern, get rid of Hideki Moroboshi and the others, and then follow the waiter to the Poker Tavern to secretly look for Professor Moriarty..."
"As a result, this guy lost his glider and smoke bombs and was caught by Colonel Moran!"
“Who can stand this?”
"Sometimes..."
Conan glanced at him:
"I think you are really dark inside. When you return to Tokyo, you should go see a psychiatrist..."
"Fuck, you're still looking for a psychiatrist?"
Sakaki Makoto retorted:
"Are they treating me or am I treating them?"
“..........”
In a trance, Conan thought of Minamio Kamikawa, the poor and hateful psychologist.
"Lock them in the cellar of the tavern first, and then interrogate them when the lord comes!"
"knew."
Under the order of Colonel Moran, Little Mustache took a few people and threw Kidd and his four companions into the cellar. He sent a younger brother to guard the cellar and continued playing cards.
"Let's go back and find Hattori and the others first."
To be on the safe side, Makoto Sakaki and Conan returned to the back door the same way they came.
Kidd and the others will not be in danger for the time being. Colonel Moran is waiting for Professor Moriarty to arrive, which is exactly what they want.
Seeing Sakaki Makoto and the other two come out, the people who stayed behind immediately asked:
"What's going on inside?"
"Alas, it's not optimistic..."
