Chapter 823 Lend Me a Steel Wire



"Have all the personnel been arranged?"

"Yes, according to your instructions, five snipers have been ambushed around the tavern."

The conductor bowed respectfully and responded to the old man.

"Tell them not to rush to shoot and wait for my signal."

"clear."

The conductor turned and walked out of the pub. The old man sat in the hall, staring at the flickering light on the table, in a daze.

..............................

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

In the early morning, pedestrians going to work started to appear on the streets, and some people who knew about the train incident were spreading the news as gossip.

No police came forward to stop it, so Lestrade took away most of the police force in Dartmoor, leaving only three or four people on patrol.

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

At 6:45 a.m., the carriage turned the street and stopped at the back door of Jellosi's Tavern.

A man in black and a peaked cap got off the carriage, with the brim of his cap pulled down low, and entered the inn behind the tavern, then climbed up to the rooftop...

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:

"Do you want to go in?"

"want."

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

"It's locked."

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

Sakaki Makoto extended his hand:

"Lend me a piece of steel wire."

"Where did I get the wire?"

Sakaki Makoto lowered his gaze to look at the fluffy white gauze skirt that Ai was wearing and said:

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

“........”

Xiao Ai held her forehead and sighed, not knowing what to say. She silently tore open one side of her skirt, fumbled for a while, and indeed pulled out a long steel wire from it.

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

She decided to go all out and while Sakaki Makoto was using the wire to unlock the lock, she pulled out all the wires from her skirt.

In the blink of an eye...

The big puffy skirt becomes the shape of a wedding dress.

Click!

There was a sound of a spring jumping inside the lock, and Sakaki Makoto turned the handle and gently opened the back door.

"Come on....why are you changing clothes?"

“Easy to move around.”

Like a medieval princess, Ai lifted her skirt and walked into the tavern in a dignified manner. Sakaki Makoto looked behind him, and after making sure that no one noticed them, he quickly followed.

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

Walking through the backstage...

The two came to the back of the counter. As long as they went out from here, they would reach 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. Let's do this later..."

Close to Ai's ear, Makoto 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' greatest enemy!"

"I'm not Sherlock Holmes..."

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

..........................

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

"Long time no see, Professor Moriarty."

Sakaki Makoto held up his revolver, pushed open the counter, sat down on the chair opposite Professor Moriarty, glanced at the malt liquor on the table, and asked:

"Is this for me?"

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

Professor Moriarty said expressionlessly:

"I would rather it be Lian."

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

"It is precisely because I know who he is that I accepted him as my apprentice."

"In that case..."

With his eyebrows raised, Sakaki Makoto asked:

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

"You are wrong, I never abandoned him."

Professor Moriarty shook his head:

"My plan was perfect and nothing could go wrong, but..."

"You are indeed the biggest variable."

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

"Jack the Ripper?"

Sakaki Makoto smiled.

Professor Moriarty had misunderstood again.

He never cared about Jack the Ripper. He only caught him because it was a necessary condition for passing the game and he had to do it.

original...

Makoto Sakaki had no intention of paying any attention to Professor Moriarty. As for the underground organization, just let them be. He was not the savior, so why would he care about so many trivial matters?

but...

Professor Moriarty used Jack the Ripper to frame them and blew up the opera house, forcing Hattori Heiji to quit the game...

This touched upon Makoto Sakaki's minefield.

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

"Catching Jack the Ripper will earn you a medal from the King. No one would not want this honor..."
