Chapter 207: Oliver Holmes

Three weeks later. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

Lauta, the tavern of Old Lona...... Lauta City is a subsidiary city of the former famous commercial city of Naga City.

"I heard that the Seventh Princess died, but no one knows how she died. ”

"Hey, your news is outdated, I have already received the news that the princess was killed by the king by fornicating with the guards. It's just that it's hard to say clearly, so no official news has been circulated. ”

"No, no, no, I heard that the Seventh Princess was going to practice witchcraft to curse the queen, and was found by the king and executed. ”

"Not ,......"

......

Since we repelled 5 assassinations and the incident came to an end, the materials of these black princesses suddenly appeared.

Obviously, this is something that the forces that want to kill Charles have done it.

But the king is a bit eccentric, and even now, he has not fooled around...... The consuls are still being ordered to find out the real culprit.

Could it be that it is the true love in the legendary palace fighting circle?

Charles was raised so pure, also because of 'true love'?

I really want to see, what is in the king's head?

But there's no hurry.

Just speed up the spread of the Bubble Soul Seed.

······

In the afternoon of the same day.

Creak.

Winnie (the younger brother's sister) timidly pushed the door in...... Looks like there's something hard to ask me for.

"Mr. Oliver, that, can you ......?"

......

Oh, so it sees, Winnie has been very unhappy with Charles all these days, and asked me to make that guy happy...... Solve the problem of Charles's mother being hacked.

And the reason she was so timid in tone was because she thought I didn't like Charles (Grant thought so too)...... Cut, they think too much, I just don't spoil Charles as much as they do.

As for solving Charles's problem.

Well, interesting!

Based on the material available to us, an interesting proposal suddenly occurred to me.

I decided to help Charles solve his 'unhappy' problem...... Of course, helping Charles is not the main thing, the main thing is that I am really interested in the way of helping him.

"Ahem, Miss Winnie, you remember our agreement!"

I picked up the necklace that had been hanging around my neck and dangled it in front of her eyes...... The agreement at that time was roughly: she borrowed my necklace to study for 10 years, and I was her answering machine for 10 years (what she asked, I answered according to the situation).

"Now, there are only three months and one day left before the deadline we agreed. ”...... I borrowed the necklace on March 7, 389 and today's date is December 8, 398.

"So, this is my last lesson for you. ”

"Ah, this, no......"

"I'll go to Charles first and confirm his thoughts", I turned to leave without waiting for Winnie, who was at a loss, to finish speaking...... I guess she just wanted to say, 'Don't give me back the necklace, I want to teach it all the time' and something I won't agree to (I tasted the sweetness)

In this case, it is generally good to calm down...... A sudden change in long-standing habits can make people very unaccustomed (this situation can easily make people angry when they get into an argument)

Step, step, step......

I walked down the creaky, creaky wooden staircase.

"Charles. ”

"Ah, uh, Mr. Oliver. ”

"On Winnie's request, I can help you find out the truth about your mother's death and make it known to the nation. But you have to know that once I start looking into the case, it won't stop, and the truth won't necessarily turn out the way you want it to be. ”

"What?"

"In layman's terms, your mother doesn't necessarily have done bad things, and the truth I found out ......," I paused and continued

"Impossible, my mother won't do anything bad......"

"Well, of course, if your mother is really as good as you think, then there is no problem. After I was interrupted, I shrugged and continued, "I just want you to be mentally prepared beforehand." I reasoned that the announcement of the event would have been laid out beforehand. No matter what the truth is, the people of the whole kingdom of Erlandek will know afterwards. ”

"Of course, my mother won't have a problem!" Charles replied, looking at me with a beaming face.

Uh, look at this blazing eye.

Alas, forget it, I won't play this language art anymore.

"So, did you say yes? Promise Winnie to 'investigate the truth about your mother's death and make it public?'......" I wanted to play this detective game very much before I wanted to play it (I didn't want to end it without starting). I used a special context so that Charles would be in a situation where he would directly agree to the matter as soon as he answered or interrupted me (although I now think it would be too much of a bully to do so, and there is a good chance that Charles would agree directly).

"Hmm!" the blazing Charles nodded.

Sure enough, Charles agreed.

Now some of them are played!

"Grant, I'm going to call me Oliver Holmes from today onwards. ”

"Oh, so your last name is Sherlock Holmes. ”

"O Sherlock Holmes!"

......

Sherlock Holmes was a terrier, but unfortunately they didn't understand it, and they thought my surname was Sherlock Holmes.

But forget it, it's good to have some fun!

······

A month later.

"Here comes Mr. Holmes. ”

"He's Oliver Holmes?"

"Borrowed, borrowed. ”

......

Surrounded by fans and minstrels, I entered the town's crime scene.

"Woo, woo......"

A weeping woman...... It was the wife of the deceased.

A male corpse with a rotten mouth and a rotten jaw lies on the bed.

On the table was half-eaten food, and blackened silverware...... This silver was added later, and it is estimated that it was detected that the food was poisonous.

There was also a middle-aged and elderly person at the scene...... These two guys are pointing fingers and moving hands and feet at the deceased's wife.

"Mr. Holmes, you're late, and the truth of this matter is already clear. "When the elderly saw me surrounded by fans and bards, they came up to me and said in a strange tone...... That weird tone is the aristocratic tone here (it looks weird anyway).

Oh, by the way, I coined the word truth...... Now my title is: The Truth-Seeking Traveler, Oliver Holmes.

"Here's the thing......"

......

After the old man's explanation, the audience at the scene had a general understanding of this matter...... Of course, this is mainly for my fans and bards to understand

I know this very well...... When that guy killed someone yesterday, I was still observing from all angles with the invisible mage's eye!

That's why I'm here at the critical moment, the key is here...... This month, I've been imitating the Grim Reaper schoolboy who 'dies wherever he goes' (the stalk of "Detective Conan", where the protagonist goes, there are murders).
