Xu Xiaoming silently looked at the high school student who called himself Sherlock Holmes in front of him, quietly lowered the axe in his hand, and looked at the system's prompt again.

[If the containment conditions are met, will the target Axe Demon of New Orleans be contained?] 】

- Yes.

After Xiao Ming made his choice, the axe in his hand disappeared suddenly, and at the same time, the system issued a new prompt:

[Containment Item CODE001-2 unlocked, New Orleans Blood Axe. 】

[Description: A small and unremarkable axe, not like an American product, but somewhat like the symbol weapon of the Axe Gang, but with a faint engraved Made in Italy on the edge of the axe blade, presumably its owner probably bought it from some grocery store.] 】

[Summoning?] Yes/No. 】

- Yes.

The axe only disappeared for a short moment before it reappeared in Xu Xiaoming's hand, and if he didn't pay special attention, he would only feel dazzled. And Xu Xiaoming, who held the axe again, changed slightly, because he suddenly felt that something had penetrated into his body from the axe in his hand, and then he only felt a voice appear in his heart for no reason, a voice full of racial hatred, paranoia, and madness began to scream in Xu Xiaoming's brain. It was the first time Xu Xiaoming had this wonderful feeling, as if there was suddenly an extra personality in his body, he was completely different from himself, and at the same time he was constantly trying to fight for control of this body.

But Xu Xiaoming was not panicked at all, because he vaguely felt that as long as he wanted to, he could suppress this second personality at any time, squeeze him out of his body, and squeeze the personality back to the place where it had been: the axe in his hand.

- This is how those who are possessed feel, no, they should be completely defeated by this second personality, and their original personality has taken a back seat. I guess I was able to control this axe because of the system, but it's a hole card anyway...... It's a bit weak though.

Xu Xiaoming nodded secretly, and then raised his head to look at Du Weiyan vigilantly, but the moment he raised his head, he was surprised to find that he was looking at him.

"This gentleman is really cautious." He shrugged with a smile and pointed to the man tied to the ground: "He passed out." ”

- The second personality was withdrawn from him, and the poor man fainted? Oh no, forget that, if he really was Sherlock Holmes, would he already know what I did?!

Xu Xiaoming wiped the cold sweat oozing from his forehead and did not speak, while Du Weiyan kept his smile and did not speak, the two of them looked at each other like this, maintaining a solemn atmosphere, until Feng Linwan on the side said without scruples: "You say you are Sherlock Holmes?" High school student Sherlock Holmes? Did you travel through neon animation? ”

"Ahaha......" Du Weiyan glanced down at his high school uniform and shrugged his shoulders with a wry smile, "No way, after all, the owner of my body is a high school student." Both, I don't have a lot of time so I don't sell it to you, I'm similar to this man, both are possessed by others...... Personality? It should be more accurate to say this, because it is Du Weiyan himself who constitutes my personality. ”

"What do you mean?" Xu Xiaoming frowned, he had already felt the feeling of the possessed, the personality that poured out of the axe and tried to snatch his body was really like a foreign product, he didn't think that his body was so high-end, he could produce such an extreme personality and then quickly expel it out of the body, "And why are you different from these possessed people, why do you still know your original name?" ”

"Have you spoken to the possessed people you have met? They don't even know their names? Du Weiyan asked rhetorically, but when Xu Xiaoming was a little speechless by his rhetorical question, he waved his hand and continued, "But they really don't remember, your first impression is right." ”

Xu Xiaoming: "......"

- Is Holmes' character so bad?

"After my personality was created, I did only know that I was Sherlock Holmes and didn't know Du Weiyan, but staying in my room, it was very simple to deduce my name." Du Weiyan snapped his fingers, "And after realizing my situation, I began to look for your existence, that is, the person who knows my situation." In the process of searching, I found this guy with an axe, he was too ostentatious, compared to the guy who seemed to be Jack the Ripper, this man would undoubtedly soon be the target of two such people, so I began to wait for the rabbit. ”

Xu Xiaoming realized something, squinted his eyes at Du Weiyan, and asked coldly: "You just watched him commit murder without doing anything?" ”

"I was going to call the police, but when the killer chose this shop as his target, I gave up on my plan." Du Weiyan looked at Feng Linwan, "This young lady probably doesn't know that when you bought this shop, you were already targeted by me." ”

Feng Linwan shrugged undeniably.

"The so-called praying mantis catches cicadas and yellow finches are nothing more than that, you caught the murderer by relying on this shop called the trap, and I followed the murderer to find you." Mr. Sherlock raised his pipe and took a slow puff, but his expression became colder, he looked at Xu Xiaoming and Feng Linwan, and said with some disgust: "To be honest, you are not my ideal conversation partner, you two are a little too young, which means that you may be completely inexperienced. But in a short period of time, the only people I can find are the two of you, so I have no choice but to settle for the next best. ”

"If you dislike us so much, don't look for us!"

Xiao Ming shouted dissatisfiedly, but Mr. Sherlock, who was full of adult style, ignored him completely, and just stretched out four fingers to the two of them: "Including me, I have met four beings similar to me, Sherlock Holmes, the axe murderer of New Orleans, the murderer suspected of being Jack the Ripper, and ...... A man who calls himself Edmond Dantès. I'm curious about what is behind this phenomenon, and I'd like to meet the world-famous murderer, but for this, I need the help of people like you, I wonder if we can cooperate? ”

Xu Xiaoming glanced at Feng Linwan's senior, only to see her nodding at Xiao Ming, and he regained the courage to confront the great detective from her good-looking dead face, and then he looked at Du Weiyan again, and pretended to think for a while before nodding: "Yes." ”

"Not enough, we have to sign a gentleman's agreement." Feng Linwan, who had been hiding on the side and had no sense of existence, suddenly came out and added at this time, then took out the booklet from her arms and tore off a page, took out a gilded black pen and handed it to Du Weiyan, while holding a ballpoint pen and signing her name, "Just write 'don't betray each other, don't cheat each other, don't hurt each other' Okay, let's sign it." ”

- Devil's Pact Pen ......

Xu Xiaoming swallowed a mouthful of saliva and decided not to say anything.
