"Who is he?"

Holmes jumped down with Watson, but before they could say anything, they climbed up again, and took Sir Bran, who had not reacted, with him. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

"What's wrong?"

"There's a gas down there, it's suffocating. ”

Sir Bran glanced at the dark hole with trepidation: "Uh...... Thank you ......."

"If this were a secret room......"

"That means it will take a long time for the gas to dissipate," Sir didn't seem to be at all overshadowed by the experience of escaping death, after all, he was unharmed, "It's troublesome, but I can get the servant to help ......"

"No need. ”

Holmes sighed.

"What's wrong, Sherlock Holmes?"

"I've found the killer. ”

"The corpse?" cried out Sir and Watson in surprise.

"But why? there's no evidence there......" Sir suddenly stopped shouting excitedly, "so you see that?"

"Yes, to be honest, I'm really familiar with this suffocating gas......"

Sherlock Holmes looked down at the chaotic corner beneath the hole: "It's a dangerous compound, and no container can be safely stored, so I chose to store the two ingredients that make it separately, one of which can be placed in a glass bottle, and the other needs to be kept in a dark, dark-colored glass bottle." The former leaves a distinctive pale green color on the glass that will not disappear even after a long time. ”

"Do you see that glass bottle?"

"Yes, in the hands of the corpses, and next to that blackout glass bottle. ”

The result came so suddenly that everyone fell silent.

"And the process of everything happening is very simple, and the common gangsters are just fighting. ”

Holmes was silent after speaking.

It's all so simple, but there's so much more that hasn't been revealed, and perhaps, as Magellan said, the mystery will only come up if you know who destroyed the Thieves' Guild.

But the thieves' deaths were fratricidal, and everything seemed to fall into a fog again.

......

"So all the clues are broken. ”

Magellan sat on the couch and sighed, the four of them had returned to Baker Street at the same time, and none of them had brought back good news.

"Of course, Detective Holmes still solved the mystery of the murder and found the murderer, but my side is a little troublesome......"

"The thieves' guild may still have someone alive, don't worry, after all, the hunters didn't make a move. ”

"But they are cannibalism......"

For an organization in the dark, being destroyed by an enemy is very different from its own collapse, the former will allow certain determined people to survive, and they will cherish their heritage and traditions more because of the change, while the latter means total chaos and abandonment, with little left to remain.

"Maybe I should advise you to give up ......," Holmes smoked his pipe, "after all, like you said, the Thieves' Guild collapses itself from within......"

"What about you? Holmes," Magellan smiled wryly, "the hunters sent the commission because they had what they wanted, and that supernatural power was still missing. ”

"Ah, what is it......" Holmes laughed, "a supernatural power cannot always be hidden in the dark, someone will always find him, and then the hunter will arrive at the first time...... Trust me, it won't be long. ”

"Maybe you're right," Magellan thoughtfully said...... "but that supernatural power...... Where will it be? Maybe it's still in place, maybe it's ......."

"Taken away by the survivors," Arthur poured cold water on him without hesitation, "and then you can go to that thief and ask for the rules of the guild?" ”

"It's not absolutely impossible, is it?"

Magellan completely ignored Arthur's taunt, he frowned thoughtfully, and then suddenly laughed.

"Maybe I should try ......"

"What?"

Magellan smiled and left without saying anything.

......

"Ah, welcome, Professor Magellan. ”

The smile on the countess's face perfectly matched the etiquette of the nobility, and at the same time it was miraculously mixed with surprise, like salt on the flesh, and everything became deep, as if another world was hidden beneath the surface of the sea.

And Magellan only saw how abrupt his sudden appearance was, which was really impolite.

"Sorry......"

"What?" said the countess, still smiling, as she led Magellan into her mansion, "Actually, I was wondering if I should ask you to come over, for I had to help with this. ”

"What?"

The countess did not say anything more, but led Magellan into the living room in silence.

"That's what I just brought up ......"

"Hello, Professor Magellan. ”

It was a well-groomed, middle-aged man with a striking pair of hands, who looked a little tired, but who seemed to be in high spirits because of some good news.

"Hello. ”

"This is Mr. Luke, currently known, the only survivor of the Thieves' Guild. ”

Magellan shook his head and smiled, "Hello." ”

The Countess used her talent to defuse the embarrassment caused by the overly excited and absent-minded person in this paragraph, and then quickly got the two strangers into a conversation.

Luke then wittily begins to recount the destruction of the thieves' shop.

"The advent of explorers changed everything, and everyone began to discover one thing, and that was that thieves couldn't steal anything. ”

"The thieves' guild is supported by thieves all over the city, not a handful of skilled thieves, and when the explorers flood the city like a tidal wave destroying coral reefs, the thieves who live in it are doomed to no longer be able to live. ”

"Everyone knew that the guild would not continue to exist, but everyone did not expect that it would end up with such a complete collapse and cannibalism......"

The survivors of the thieves did not say any more, and Magellan did not ask any more, and he had already speculated about what had happened.

"So that supernatural power?"

"It's mine now. ”

The countess gracefully picked up the teacup and brought it to her lips.

......

"So, at last you came up with such a simple thing," said the countess, standing beside Magellan and looking down on the "Society of Explorers" that had just opened, "believing that it would solve the problem." ”

"After all, I didn't want much, and as for the simple ......," Magellan sighed, "I didn't expect the rules of the Thieves' Guild to be so simple. ”

"You know very well that everybody wants more than that. The countess turned to face Magellan, "Will this put an end to the disaster?"
