For the past two or three days, the members of the team have been resting in the Helsing Mansion, according to Adrian, hoping to wait until Professor Van Helsing has rushed back to London to discuss what to do next. During this time, Holmes also visited several people here, and he first apologized for the attacks on several people in the hotel. Although he also guessed that someone would monitor the situation of the entire team, he did not expect the monitor to act like this, after all, even the great detective is difficult to guess people's hearts, let alone that they are no longer human.

And Sherlock Holmes also said that he found more clues on the road to find Jack the Ripper, whether it was from the murderer's skillful human anatomy or the handwriting he left behind, which made Holmes lock the selection within a small range. And when the time comes to discover the true identity of Jack the Ripper, he will need the help of several people to deal with the vicious "vampire".

"I'm worried right now, if we keep letting our guard down on Mina, will she become a vampire because of Dracula's first embrace? In that case, it will be even more troublesome to deal with. In the private discussion of several people, Ma Shuangcheng has always had such concerns, "After all, according to the statements I have received in the past few days, even if it is a newborn who has just experienced the first embrace, the real vampire still has extremely powerful abilities." ”

"Old Ma, you're too worried." Zhu Jue said.

"Yes." Ma Shuangcheng nodded, and it seemed that he did feel that he was too careful, "This vampire count is willing to go incognito and contact the woman he thinks is the reincarnation of his wife, and probably not directly expose his true colors and suck people's blood." ”

"No, I mean......" Zhu Jue expressed a different opinion, "That Mina is still not a virgin, and a non-virgin can't become a vampire, right?" ”

"Uh...... Isn't that Mr. Jonathan Harker a very innocent young man according to the survey? Ma Shuangcheng was stunned for a moment, and then said, "It is said that he is against premarital sex." ”

"Hmm...... I'm talking about that Mina, what are you talking about Jonathan......" Zhu Jue said, "Is Mina a virgin related to Jonathan?" ”

"Mr. Jonathan Harker will cry when you say that...... Linn couldn't help but interject, as if Zhu Jue's words made her a little uncomfortable, "that Miss Mina William Murray is also said to be a very pure girl, don't say that she seems to be very like that." ”

"Speaking of which, for the first embrace of vampires, what is the definition of a virgin?" Zhu Jue looked like he was deep in thought, "If it is judged by a certain proof, then isn't it very unfair to women who love cycling, tennis, vegetables and fruits, and pets?" ”

"There's something in that sentence you just said that's too rude!" Linn said very upset.

While several people were still struggling with Mina's question, Adrian suddenly found a few people.

"I just received a telegram from Professor Van Helsing, and he will be in London in a short time." Adrian said to the group, "However, his whereabouts seem to have leaked out when Istanbul wanted to take the sea route, and the 'ghosts' seem to have noticed him." ”

"In Istanbul?" The expressions of several people were a little puzzled, especially Linn, who had a deep understanding of European geography, "If Professor Van Helsing wants to go back to London, what is he going to do in Turkey?" It's the Black Sea...... If you want to return to London, you have to cross the Mediterranean Sea and then travel more than 500 nautical miles north from the Strait of Gibraltar to get back to London...... Even if Romania and Turkey had earlier access to the sea, why didn't he take the train north to Hamburg, Rotterdam, or even Dunkirk, which would save at least two-thirds of the distance than going to the Mediterranean......"

"It's true that it's a lot of detour across the Mediterranean." "But if the ship is fast enough, it won't be a big deal to make that many detours." ”

"And what about the news that the 'Ghost' found Professor Van Helsing?" Ma Shuangcheng asked with some concern.

Adrian shook his head and said: "When Professor Van Helsing went to Romania to find help from the Belmont family, someone from the 'ghost' contacted Richard Belmont in advance, hoping that he could help the 'ghost' to find a way to subdue Count Dracula, after all, the Belmont family and Count Dracula have been fighting each other for almost four hundred years, and it can be said that they know the Count the best demon hunter." There were even several occasions when the Count had fallen into disadvantage when facing several legendary witchers of the Belmont family, such as Ralph Belmont, Simon Belmont, Richter Belmont, etc. If it weren't for the huge castle power located in the almost demonic realm, perhaps Count Dracula would have been wiped out. It's a pity that since Richter Belmont, the strength of the Belmont family has dropped a lot, and now it can still be called the top witcher, but there is no more situation in the past where the Belmont family attacked the demon castle and almost completely sealed the earl alone. But Count Dracula also slowly ceased to be active during that time......"

"So you're saying that ...... 'Ghost' discovered Professor Van Helsing and went in search of Richard Belmont, which means that he has plans to deal with Count Dracula...... And because of the information we have about Jonathan and Mina, Professor Van Helsing knows that he can find Count Dracula by the way. Is it precisely because of this that the 'ghost' is eyeing Professor Van Helsing......" Chu Yuan asked after analyzing it a little.

"That's right...... Although the 'Ghost' itself does have the idea of dealing with Count Dracula. But they themselves are a combination of dark forces, no more righteous than the legendary vampire. Richard Belmont is indeed bent on inheriting the will of the family and sealing Count Dracula, but he is not willing to cooperate with any dark Ones. At least Professor Van Helsing, the witcher who is loyal to Her Majesty the Queen under the Anglican Church of the British Empire, has enough strength and willingness, and Richard Belmont is still willing to cooperate with Professor Van Helsing. Adrian said.

"Hmph, that's too easy to think of. If I can't get it, you can't think about it. Chu Yuan sneered and said, "What's more, the two parties themselves can be regarded as enemies, and this 'ghost' may take the opportunity to get rid of Professor Van Helsing and Richard Belmont first, in case when dealing with Count Dracula, instead of cooperating, the two sides will be in the way of each other." ”

"That's right...... This is also because the other party does not know that we have already grasped the news of Count Dracula's situation. So probably not the idea that let's go to find the Count first, and then they later. And if they know that we have Earl's information, then just because the news from Jonathan and Mina is absolutely impossible to keep secret, then they will definitely strike first. After all, it was Count Dracula who needed to be faced, and nothing happened in a hurry. And the two of us have different attitudes towards Count Dracula, one side hopes that he can leave London and not cause trouble, and the other side wants to control him no matter how much trouble he causes. In such a situation, it is almost impossible for one party to wait for the other to act before making a move......"

Adrian analyzed a lot, but Zhu Jue didn't hear what he said at all, he just asked the silver-haired man in front of him and said, "What do you mean by saying so much nonsense?" ”

"Sorry...... What I mean here ......" Adrian also seemed to feel that it was not clear to explain to someone like Zhu Jue, or it would be better to say what he wanted to do directly, "Professor Van Helsing's boat is very safe, but I am worried that he will be attacked by the 'ghost' side when he docks, so I hope that a few of you can go with me to the port area of Corydon to meet Professor Van Helsing, just in case anything unexpected happens." ”

"Then let's go, you're still talking here without stopping......" Zhu Jue looked at the silver-haired man with a disgusted expression, "Didn't you say that Earl Van Helsing was about to arrive in London, and he was still in the mood to waste time here." ”

"Hmm...... Looks like I'm being long-winded. Adrian smiled wryly, and then invited a few people to board the carriage he had prepared.

The destination is the port of Corydon, located north of the Thames, which also happens to be near London Bridge. It took almost an hour and a half for the carriage to get from the outskirts to that direction.

Professor Van Helsing had a handy radio station with him at all times, so he had already made contact with Adrian, and his ship would soon appear in the harbor of London. It was a radio station that surprised Linn, who majored in electronic communications, because with the technology of the late 19th century, the emergence of such a radio station was simply unthinkable. Upon inquiry, it was revealed that the radio had been created by the captain who had sent Professor Van Helsing back to London, and that the captain seemed to have quite unexpected technical abilities.

After another half an hour, when it was getting dark, several people standing in the port of Corry Don looked at the empty horizon and were a little puzzled, because it was already the time for Professor Van Helsing to arrive at the port of London.

"Nothing could go wrong, right?" Ma Shuangcheng asked Adrian worriedly, "Or was their ship attacked by a 'ghost' or something?" ”

"Direction, it's fine." Adrian said with a smile, looking at his pocket watch, "It's almost time." ”

Then, less than five minutes later, several people suddenly found a vacant ship space in the port in front of them, and suddenly there was a violent splash. Then a huge silver-white ship rose out of the water out of thin air.

"The Nautilus has finally arrived......"
