"Mr. Collinlow, why are you doing this?" Edwina's tone was stern, and her gaze was as sharp as a knife.

"It was because on the night of Christmas Eve, he borrowed a thousand pounds from the deceased, but he could not afford to pay it back, and the deceased would often come to him to pay off his debts, and he could not bear the repeated debts of the deceased, so he got rid of the creditor and never suffered any trouble." Sherlock's tone was extremely cold, and he made it clear that the other party's motive for killing was "in vain."

"It is a matter of course to repay debts." After Edwina said this.

Collinlow was taken away by the police who arrived later.

The sun shines through the clouds, and you can vaguely see a purple almost transparent air flow fluctuation in the sky above Atlante, England, which has covered the entire British Atlante, which is a magical enchantment used to block external attacks, and you can see a purple six-pointed star array, and the only person who can lay down this enchantment is Earl Sherlock, who has awakened to the top god of law and the head of the Ford Heslett family, a demon contractor.

A giant eagle covered in purple-blue feathers and six feet long flew through the sky of Atlantel, England, its feathers glowed with purple lustre, a pair of golden eyes as large as lanterns proudly stood out to passers-by on the street, the flapping of its wings seemed to cause a strong hurricane, a long howl suddenly sounded, as if it could shake the whole town, and then like a bolt of lightning flew straight towards the Ford Heslett mansion, and disappeared in an instant.

At this time, Sherlock was using three black chess pieces and three white chess pieces to lay out a purple six-pointed star array in the courtyard, which were the king, the knight and the bishop, and then the magic array emitted a purple dazzling light, and in an instant, six purple beams of light shot straight out from the top of the chess pieces into the sky, and the enchantment that had been slightly weakened by the invasion energy of the Blood Wing Country was strengthened again.

At this moment, a sudden sound of birds waving their wings suddenly sounded above their heads, and then a strong hurricane suddenly appeared around, and a huge eagle with a body length of six feet slowly landed in front of Sherlock.

Sherlock looked up at it, reached out to take the letter from its mouth, then took a chicken leg from the plate held by Bertha, and the Purple Flame Eagle took the leg in his mouth, turned and flew away, and then disappeared without a trace after a long roar.

Sherlock opened the envelope and took out the letter inside and opened it, and Edvina couldn't help but lean over curiously and asked, "Who wrote the letter?" ”

After reading the ten lines at a glance, Sherlock had an extremely cold smile on his lips, and replied: "The people of the Ferdinand family, it seems that those people still have not given up the position of earl, and they are really immortal. ”

Hearing this, Edvina had to admit that her instincts were sometimes really accurate, the last time she said anything, she knew that they would definitely be entangled if they didn't win this position, but she didn't expect to be really right by her.

After lunch, it was already half past one o'clock, the sun was shining, and the thick layer of snow on the cherry blossom trees in the original garden had slowly melted at this time, turning into droplets of water dripping from the leaves to the ground and splitting in half, a brown quaint carriage slowly stopped in a clearing outside the courtyard of Ford Hestley's mansion, and then a person stepped out of the carriage, Vera looked up at the tall and majestic building in front of her, and the flowery garden, as well as the company founded by the other party. Heslett Dessert Company couldn't help but feel jealous, and in his logic, everything that had anything to do with the mansion should belong to him, Vera Ferdinand.

But he didn't want to think about how Sherlock had brought the mansion, which was already on the verge of collapse, back on track, and it had taken seven years to establish the company, and now he said that it would be so easy to take it away, but Vera didn't care about it, what he said today to get what he wanted.

Then he took two steps forward, but the whole person didn't know what was blocked, and he couldn't help but be strange, but there was nothing in front of him, Vera tried to raise his hand and lightly clicked, and there was a burst of purple light and shadow fluctuations in front of him, only to find out that there was a magic enchantment in front of him, why didn't he find it just now, before he could figure it out, he suddenly shot sharp arrows from all directions and shot straight here, he was suddenly shocked and didn't make a correct reaction at all, Seeing that the arrows were about to stab him into a hornet's nest, they suddenly stopped only a centimeter away from his throat, and then fell to the ground.

This is only then that I slowly eased up, and then I found that there are cherry blossom trees planted around, but now it is winter, on the contrary, these cherry blossoms are in full swing, and those trees are placed with skulls and their mouths are wide open, and it is obvious that the sharp arrows just now are fired from the mouths of these skulls.

"Is my brother okay?" Just when he was stunned, a voice that seemed to contain infinite meaning came, it was Sherlock, he turned around and looked at Sherlock who was standing within the enchantment, looking at the expression on his face without a trace of guilt, when he thought that he had just been teased by the other party, he couldn't help but be annoyed: "Sherlock, what do you mean?!" ”

"How can you not entertain your guests when you come to the door, you say yes, Cousin Vera." At the end of Sherlock's words, he showed a seemingly innocent smile, but his eyes were extremely indifferent and mocking.

"You ......" Vera was so blocked by the other party's words that she couldn't say a word, she just stared at her over there, but because she couldn't get in through the barrier, she was even more angry.

Sherlock said with an apologetic look on his face as if he had suddenly remembered something, "Cousin Vera is really sorry. Then, he raised his hand and grabbed it in the air, and the barrier disappeared, and Vera couldn't wait to slash the other party with a sword, but the other party was a magician, and he was the same, so it was better to put the other party to death today.

As soon as Vera thought of this, Vera pulled out his long sword and stabbed at the other party, and Sherlock in front didn't seem to be aware of the danger coming from behind, just when the long sword in Vera's hand was about to pierce the other party's heart from behind, his hand was hit by a stone flying out of nowhere, and the long sword suddenly took off his hand and flew out with a "snap" and pierced into the cherry blossom tree on the side.

"What is my cousin looking at?" Sherlock in front of him didn't know when he stopped, he had already turned around and was looking at him suspiciously, and Edvina on the side almost laughed, thinking that this Sherlock was really stupid, obviously it was a stone thrown by the mechanism he designed.

Vera's hands clenched into fists in her sleeves, and it took almost a long time to suppress the anger that was about to erupt, and she gritted her teeth and said, "It's nothing. He was sure that it must be the other party's ghost, but the most important thing at the moment was to win the earl's position, so he had to hold back his anger and say: "Forget it, I don't have anything to say to you, I have to take the earl from you today!" ”

Sherlock sneered in his heart: It's finally here! He watched Vera for a long time without saying a word, and only after a while raised his left hand with the blue gem and said coldly, "If you can get this ring from me, this earl's position is yours." ”

Vera looked at the sapphire on the thumb of his hand, almost thought that the other party was frightened by himself, sneered in his heart, and immediately reached out to take it, but the other party avoided his hand instantly, and before Vera could react, I don't know why the other party suddenly regretted that the whole person had been slammed by the other party and flew away, falling to the ground like a rag bag, and spit out a mouthful of blood without holding back the churning in his throat.

Seeing Sherlock still standing there with a cold face, he couldn't help but be annoyed and stood up from the ground: "Sherlock, you don't believe what you say!" ”

Sherlock scoffed, "When I don't keep my word, since you can't get the ring from me, it means that you don't deserve the title of earl at all." ”

Edvina looked at Vera so embarrassed, and kept applauding in her heart, but the other party still didn't give up, suddenly pulled out the long sword from the cherry tree on the side, turned around and stabbed at Sherlock, but the tip of the sword was only one centimeter away from the other party's heart, but it was clamped by the other party's fingers, Vera was stunned, and then wanted to pull out the long sword, he didn't expect the other party's strength to be extremely strong, and the sword body of the long sword in his hand actually broke with a "snap".

For a while, he was already terrified to the extreme, he couldn't understand why he was also a magician, why he was inferior everywhere, but Sherlock didn't give a chance to react at all, and a backhand slap knocked Vera's whole person to the ground, two teeth were lost, and a mouth full of blood, he saw the ring on the other party's left hand, and stood up from the ground again, raised his sword again and rushed over.

But the long sword was the assassin on the side of Edwina, he knew that this so-called detective assistant was the most important person for Sherlock, Edwina looked at the long sword stabbed at him, his head was blank for a while, at this moment, her whole person was instantly embraced by Sherlock on the side, a wrong step to avoid the long sword, Vera didn't expect the sword to be in the air, the other party had kicked on his left cheek, and was kicked out again.

Vera was so angry that she stood up from the ground, and just as he raised his sword to assassinate him again, he heard a cold shout from behind him: "Vera! ”

Vera was stunned for a moment, and stopped her movements, but as soon as she turned her head, she was greeted by a heavy palm from the comer, and she didn't have time to guard against it, and the whole person had been knocked out and hit the cherry blossom tree on the side, and then fell down and fell into a coma.

Sherlock looked at the person in front of him, the other party was tall and dressed in a black suit, with a handsome smile and a pair of very sharp eyes, this person was the second young master of the Feded family, Marquis Ackerman.

Ackerman looked at Sherlock with a different attitude from Vera, and said with a completely polite look: "Count Fort Heslett, I'm really sorry that my brother offended you today, and I'll take him away now." ”

He looked at the other party, the Marquis of Ackerman Ferdinand, but in England, the first person in Atlante City to become a great sage step by step from a junior magician, and the only person in the Ferdinand family who has the blood of a magician, and then it can be understood why Vera, who was obviously just a human before, became a magician, it turned out that Vera did not die that day and came back, not because the assassins showed mercy, but that someone saved him, and the person who saved him trained him to become a magician.
