Chapter 827: Disciple of Sherlock Holmes

In London, it was already noon local time when he arrived at Heathrow Airport, and Shinichi Kudo hid in the airport toilet for a while to wait for the antidote to expire, and then he and Xiaolan met Uncle and Dr. Asasa who came to pick up the airport to start the trip to Sherlock Holmes in the United Kingdom.

The first stop is of course the Sherlock Holmes address at 221 Baker Street, although only based on a replica of one of the attractions "Sherlock Holmes Museum".

Sherlock Holmes's influence in this world is much greater than Gao Cheng imagined, at least the atmosphere of Baker Street is quite strong, you can see tourists wearing Sherlock Holmes commemorative costumes everywhere, fortunately, there are not many visitors to the museum, and Conan also had the opportunity to personally sit in the chair where Sherlock Holmes sat in his daily thoughts.

Gao Cheng followed the uncle and walked around casually.

In the end, it is still too bad, where once there are more tourists, there is no atmosphere, especially after seeing the original virtual game, this museum is really not interesting, the nature of the attraction is full, there is no immersive feeling at all.

Conan felt the same way, but after all, reality is different from virtual games, and he stayed for a while before leaving.

"Is Conan already going out?" Xiaolan, who was still taking pictures, was surprised.

"It's already enjoyable," Conan contented, "and the souvenir seller is next door...... If Holmes were really here, I would have been fine for a few days. ”

Walking out of the museum, a young foreign boy arguing with the guards at the door caught Conan's attention, and seemed to be looking for Sherlock Holmes.

"There's really no Sherlock Holmes here......"

"Liar! Sherlock Holmes lives here! Hurry up and let me see him!! ”

"Little friend," the guard said, "Mr. Holmes is out to work......

"Then what kind of case do you say?"

"Well...... this"

"Look, you're lying!" The little boy shouted, "If you don't hurry, someone will be killed!" Only Sherlock Holmes can stop it! ”

Conan listened curiously for a while, and when he saw that the little boy was angry and wanted to leave, he didn't bother to buy souvenirs, so he caught up and asked, "Hello, can you tell me about what happened just now?" ”

"Huh? Do you speak English? The little boy looked at Conan in surprise and snorted, "Why should I tell you?" My sister's game is about to start, and I don't have time to ......."

Conan smiled, "Because I'm a disciple of Sherlock Holmes, are you Glass?" ”

The little boy was even more surprised, looked at Conan seriously and said, "You, how do you know what my surname is?" Do you know me? ”

"It only takes a simple reasoning," Conan said with a smack of his finger and an easy analysis, "There is white liquid and powder standing next to your mouth...... It's cream and sugar sprinkled on strawberries, right? There is also a cup with lime, cucumber and mint in the hand, which is supposed to be a drink called Pimm's...... When it comes to sports games where you can eat strawberries and drink Pimm's, it's Wimbledon......"

Saying that, Conan checked the watch time in the stunned gaze of the little boy and said: "Today is the semi-finals of the women's singles, the first game started at 1 o'clock in Xiao Wu, and now it is more than 2 o'clock, then your sister's game is the second game, and one of the players in the game is Wang Haili, whose parents are both Chinese, and your face doesn't look like Asian......

"That's her opponent, the four-time Wimbledon champion, the world's No. 1 queen of lawn tennis, Minerva Grass is your sister, right?"

"...... right"

"And you can vaguely see this Wimbledon VIP lounge pass in your breast pocket."

Conan pulled out a string hanging sign from the little boy's pocket, and the little boy who was stupid finally relieved himself and asked Conan excitedly, "That's amazing!" Are you really a disciple of Sherlock Holmes? ”

Conan smiled and didn't explain, but asked, "So, can you tell me what you said about someone being killed?" ”

"Uh-huh!" The little boy nodded again and again, worried, and said, "Just after noon, I was eating strawberries while watching the winning players on Court 15 practice, and the uncle sitting behind me suddenly came to me and said that someone was going to die, somewhere in London, in front of my eyes......"

Conan said cautiously, "Did you see that guy's face?" ”

"No, he wore his hat very low and couldn't read clearly, but he gave me a very strange piece of paper and told me to tell the Metropolitan Police Department that it was his apocalypse, and said that if I couldn't solve it, I would ask Sherlock Holmes to ......."

Gao Cheng had no intention of buying souvenirs, but took a few photos with him, looked around with Mori Kogoro next to him, and finally left with the other tourists, and when he went downstairs, he found that Conan did not go to buy souvenirs, but held a piece of paper and didn't know what he was studying.

"What's wrong?" Mori Kogoro happened to see the little boy who had just run away in a hurry, and asked suspiciously, "You can't get me in trouble even if you go to a foreign country, right?" ”

"Actually," Conan said with a slight sweat on his forehead, and said with a dry smile, "there was a guy who predicted the murder and gave me a code paper, and the kid asked me to go to the police." ”

"Cipher?" The only Chinese network

"The ringing of the bell woke me up,

I'm a long-nosed magician who lives in a castle,

The only thing that can be used to fill the stomach is boiled eggs that are as cold as a corpse,

In the end, it is enough to just gnaw the pickled melon directly,

By the way, order a celebratory cake first,

The bell rang again aroused my disgust,

Let it all be over, and put two swords behind the white back......"

"It's these seven lines."

"Huh?" Xiaolan followed and looked at the lines of poetic English on the paper, "What the hell is this?" It feels a little scary......"

"The man who foretold the murder said it was his apocalypse, probably a crime prophecy or something......"

Conan took a picture of all the words on the paper with his mobile phone, and saw that Gao Cheng next to him seemed to be studying carefully, so he opened his mouth but didn't ask.

If you have a code, Gao Cheng probably won't be able to help much, especially if you don't know anything about the prisoners.

Metropolitan Police Department, London.

Surprisingly, there were many children and parents who were also holding papers, and it seemed that not only the little boy that Conan had met, but also many children had also encountered prisoners, and the testimonies were the same, all saying that the dark-skinned man with a hat and dreadlocks gave them the paper on the side of the road or in a park or something.

Gao Cheng didn't understand the content of the code, but he heard Conan tell him about the little boy Glass's encounter with a prisoner, and the children who came to the Metropolitan Police Department were similar, and they were all told that "someone will die if London takes it".

It seems that the prisoners are preparing to kill people in large numbers......

Gao Cheng interrogated several children one after another, and after paying the price of some candy, he found that in addition to letting these children come to the Metropolitan Police Department, the prisoner also told almost everyone that he would look for Sherlock Holmes if he couldn't solve the code.

This is very abnormal, Sherlock Holmes is just a character, even if it is to provoke the police, there is no need to say it to children.

Moreover, there are too many children who have been exposed, which is very unreasonable from the perspective of criminal behavior, and will only greatly increase the possibility of one's own exposure.

Outside the police station, Conan was still analyzing the situation with his uncle.

"Many of the children who got the paper were wearing bicycle helmets, and they said that they would be watching the Tour de France on TV every day, and it was broadcast almost simultaneously with Wimbledon, so it was impossible to watch two games at the same time, so the prisoner didn't mean to ...... on TV when he said 'die in front of his eyes'."

Conan said and grabbed Dr. Asasa and said to Gao Cheng and the uncle: "Anyway, you go to a place where many people may gather first, maybe you can find any clues, and the doctor and I will try to solve the code!" ”

Gao Cheng and Maori Kogoro, who stayed behind, glanced at each other, and then looked at Xiaolan, who was about to chase Conan.

"What to do? Want to find out? Uncle Maori asked.

"yes."

Gao Cheng sighed secretly.

Conan, this guy, is it okay to group up like this? Xiaolan won't talk about it, the uncle doesn't have any drama at all.

"Really," Ran said, still worried about Conan, "I'm going to have dinner with Ms. Diana at the hotel in the evening." ”

"What's the matter," said the uncle, disapprehended, "With Dr. Asasa with him, he won't get lost, so it's really worrying if he's with Joto." ”

"Hey ......"

Gao Cheng followed behind the uncle.

He knew why Conan dragged Dr. Asa away to investigate alone, probably because he was worried that he would be constrained in front of Xiaolan and would not be able to concentrate on solving the mystery.

However, it is indeed a good note to collect intelligence separately, after all, London is not small, and it is not known when the prisoners will act, so there is not enough time.
