"and..."
Irene Adler leaned forward, her long brown hair falling in a sweep:
"Since you are here on behalf of Sherlock Holmes, you will definitely protect me, right?"
“Hey, hey, hey…”
Conan put the bouquet on the table and felt helpless about the character set by his father:
"Don't make it sound so easy, okay?"
"The other party is Jack the Ripper!"
"The one caught is Jack the Ripper..."
A cup of hot tea was placed in front of Conan, and Irene Adler said with a smile:
"If it wasn't to catch Jack the Ripper, why are you here?"
"Let's not talk about this for now. The performance will start in 10 minutes. I have to get ready to go on stage."
Irene Adler sat down in front of the dressing table and began to put on simple makeup in front of the mirror. As a soprano, she had a lot of fans, just like in the real world, she was a big star.
really...
Conan couldn't help but cover his face.
She has the same personality as my mom, she is fearless and can laugh and joke even when someone points a gun at her...
"Is your second sister such a person?"
Sakaki Makoto and Kidd discussed privately:
"Not even afraid of Jack the Ripper!"
"Yes..."
Kidd sighed:
"She has always had that personality. My father even praised her as a natural actor!"
"You know Sharon, my senior sister. You know that she has a cold personality. But even my senior sister, who is cold to a certain extent, can't do anything to my second senior sister..."
"I heard that the development of her personality is related to her childhood experiences. It seems that she was kidnapped when she was 10 years old, and then a man rescued her and sent her back to Japan. She went through a lot of hardships along the way... I don't know much about the specific situation."
It is hard to imagine what happened to Yukiko Kudo to become what she is now. Perhaps...
Since she was a child, the difficulties she encountered were much more severe than those faced by Jack the Ripper.
“That’s right!”
Slapping his head, Kidd remembered something:
"My second senior sister said she met seven knights in her first half of her life!"
"Seven knights?"
"Yes, one of them is my father, Kuroba Toichi, and I'm not sure about the rest."
Looking at Irene Adler who was humming a song while putting on makeup, Sakaki Makoto frowned.
According to Kidd, Kudo Yukiko had met 7 knights. From the perspective of Kuroba Toichi...
The remaining six people are definitely not ordinary people.
Even Yusaku Kudo could be one of them.
So...
Who are the remaining people?
Could it be that Yukiko Kudo knows 5 more powerful characters whose abilities are comparable to Yusaku Kudo?
Boom boom!
While Sakaki Makoto was guessing, someone knocked on the door of the lounge.
Kidd took out a wrench, and Sakaki took out a revolver. The two slowly approached the door, allowing Irene Adler to ask:
"Who is it?"
"I'm here to deliver a letter to a gentleman, entrusted by Professor Moriarty!"
There was a child's voice coming from outside the door.
Professor Moriarty...
His eyes lit up and Sakaki Makoto opened the door.
In the bustling corridor, most of the people are busy staff. The performance is approaching and there is still a lot of preparation work to be done. Everyone is busy.
A little child wearing a newsboy cap and a brown sweater was standing outside the door, his dirty little hands tightly clutching a thick stack of envelopes.
"Excuse me..."
He raised his head, looked at Sakaki Makoto for a while, and asked:
"Which of you is the gentleman that Professor Moriarty is looking for?"
"I am."
As soon as Sakaki Makoto took the envelope, the newspaper boy turned and ran away, with no intention of staying.
but...
"How did Professor Moriarty know we were here?"
Sawada Hiroki said cautiously:
“Do they have spies at the Royal Opera House?”
"It's not surprising if there is. London is their home base, and Professor Moriarty is no pushover."
Sitting at the table, Sakaki Makoto tore open the envelope and poured out a stack of black and white photos.
Each photo captures a different person, including a dignified and serious middle-aged man, and a white-haired, kind-looking old man.
besides...
In the lower right corner of the photo, there is a row of house numbers written in red pen, corresponding to the home addresses of different people.
"What a quick move..."
Sakaki Makoto sighed sincerely:
"These home addresses are scattered all over London and are very hidden. It will probably take us at least a few days to collect them all by ourselves. But the goal of the game is to catch Jack the Ripper. The time limit is 2 days, and we cannot get hurt or be caught by the police..."
"Thomas Sindorah is so scheming!"
Sawada Hiroki nodded:
"That way, no one will be able to gather intelligence on his bribery!"
"Thankfully, we have Professor Moriarty to help us. He has many people under him, and the photos were delivered in less than a day!"
"I'm afraid Thomas Sindorah couldn't have imagined that we could walk out of the Poker Club unscathed and even get the help of Professor Moriarty!"
Makoto Sakaki knew very well that if Noah's Ark had not controlled the game, they would have no chance of getting close to the addresses on the list. Thomas Sindorah was in control of the game and would definitely set up trigger traps or bugs near the addresses, making it impossible for others to collect intelligence.
