"You want to use her... to threaten me?"
Sliding his fingers through the magazine, Sakaki looked down at the revolver and ignored the request made by Professor Moriarty.
"Negotiation is not the same as simple threats."
Professor Moriarty stared at Xiao Ai and said slowly:
"I saw a soul in her eyes that didn't match her age. Is this witchcraft from the East?"
"To trap an adult soul in the body of a child..."
"It's simply a forbidden technique of the devil."
"Unfortunately, this is the forbidden technique that your student, Karasuma Renya, wants to study."
Sakaki Makoto smiled:
"You raised a demon and opened his chains with your own hands..."
"Lianye did it?"
Professor Moriarty was shocked:
"I've never heard him talk about this forbidden technique."
"If even you had heard of it, the world would have been in chaos long ago."
Without dwelling too much on this topic, Sakaki Makoto dropped another bombshell:
"Sometimes, being too confident is not a good thing."
"Have you ever thought about..."
"Where did Xiao Ai go during the time I was sitting?"
The arm holding the revolver trembled, and Karasuma Renye frowned and asked:
"What do you mean?"
"Don't understand? Let me put it another way..."
Sakaki Cheng reached out his hand and pinched the candle on the table. The last ray of light disappeared and the tavern hall suddenly became dark:
"Have you ever wondered why the police who came to Dartmoor were led by Officer Lestrade?"
"Why did Lestrade take away the police from the town..."
"This is a hunting ground. A hunting ground for Professor Moriarty."
Bang!
Bang!
Bang!
The gunshots woke up the birds and also drove away the haze that shrouded the town.
The rain gradually stopped, the sun rose in the east, the darkness faded away, and the residents of the town opened the curtains one after another, wanting to see what was happening outside. However, the atmosphere in the tavern remained silent.
"Holmes...is here too?"
Professor Moriarty took a deep breath and his face looked extremely ugly.
He was fooled, and it was Sakaki Makoto and Holmes who fooled him together.
emotion...
From the very beginning, Sakaki Makoto went into battle alone not to have a final conversation with him.
He was buying Holmes time to deal with the sniper at the main entrance.
Ai's appearance was to tell Makoto Sakaki that Holmes was already in place, and the purpose of extinguishing the candlelight in the house was to attract the attention of the sniper upstairs, so that...
When Holmes fired, there would be no hindrance.
"impossible!"
The conductor said excitedly:
"The snipers we arranged have occupied four positions. No matter where the enemy appears from, they will be exposed under their scopes!"
"Holmes only fired three shots, we still have men!"
"Well, if you mean the brother lying on the roof of the hotel, he has gone to see Jesus."
"So you took care of the sniper we had stationed at the back door before entering the tavern..."
"You finally reacted."
"What a pity..."
Professor Moriarty put down his pistol, but did not show any dejection or despair. Instead, he took out a bomb from his hat with a smile on his face.
"I suppose Holmes has defused the bombs which were planted about the hotel."
With Sakaki Makoto's face looking a little ugly, he smiled and held the fuse:
"That's a clever move. You've successfully attracted my attention, but I've already made a backup plan..."
"Xiao Ai! Go!!!"
With a roar, Makoto Sakaki pointed his gun at Professor Moriarty. Before he could shoot, he suddenly found that the conductor standing next to him also raised his gun, but his target was not him, but...
Little Ai.
At this moment, Makoto Sakaki faces two choices.
1. Kill Professor Moriarty to prevent him from detonating the bomb. The conductor shot Ai, and he killed the conductor in return to fight his way out.
2. Turn the gun around and kill the conductor to buy time for Xiao Ai to escape.
It seems like a difficult problem of choosing between two options, but in fact, in Sakaki Makoto's opinion...
There is no need to choose at all.
He turned the gun, pointed it at the conductor, and pulled the trigger.
Bang!
The magazine turned, and the bullets flew out of the chamber. A cluster of bright red flowers bloomed on the chests of the train conductor and Professor Moriarty at the same time.
Seeing this, Sakaki Makoto was stunned for a moment.
He fired once, only enough time to fire once.
Looking back blankly, Sakaki Makoto saw that the revolver that Xiao Ai was holding in both hands was slowly emitting smoke.
Makoto Sakaki killed the conductor, and she chose to shoot Professor Moriarty.
No wonder the train conductor didn't aim his gun at Makoto Sakaki first, because he saw Xiao Ai raising the gun and subconsciously wanted to fight back.
But...
"Why don't you leave?"
Sakaki Makoto squatted in front of Ai and parted her short brown hair that was covering her eyes.
"I know you will stay for me, and I won't run away without you."
Xiao Ai said calmly:
"In that situation, I think you would definitely kill the conductor, so my target is Professor Moriarty. Only in this way... can we have a chance of survival."
"It is not necessary to sacrifice one person in order for the other to survive. Trust is the most powerful bond."
"horrible..."
Sakaki Cheng laughed helplessly:
"A woman who is too smart will make a man feel frustrated."
