"I've heard it, and it looks like it's true. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ”

The countess seemed to be tired of the sound of the rain, and she raised a hand, and the crystal curtain in the air vanished.

Instead, there was an invisible barrier of essence, and the raindrops disappeared silently in mid-air, as if swallowed by an invisible mouth.

"What rumors?"

"Magellan, a pioneer of explorers, a treacherous slayer, is a dragon that breathes fire on his companions for his treasure. ”

"There's nothing wrong with that, strictly speaking, very polite. Magellan had a look of remembrance on his face, "Actually, dragons are warm-blooded, and I am cold-blooded. ”

"I'm not interested in your past, as long as you don't miss the next expedition. ”

"When, where?"

"Ancient Babylon, time doesn't know yet, I need to ......" A faint blue flashed in the depths of the countess's eyes, she knew that Magellan would notice this detail, "a little time to digest the harvest of the last time." ”

"It's going to be over soon. ”

......

"So I thought, can I assume that we have a consensus?"

Moriarty smiled and glanced at Holmes, then turned his face to look at the bright pillar of light in the theater.

"Suffice it to say, in short, let this boring quarrel end. ”

So Moriarty smiled and stood up.

"I have a proposal. ”

Arguments between hunters usually have an eerie order, no two people speak at the same time, no one fights, so when Moriarty speaks, all the hunters are silent.

"Let's start the trial, let the hunters organize a makeshift court, I am the defendant, Mr. Holmes is the plaintiff, and the jury ......"

The breath in the air began to tense, and the hunters understood the key in the short time that Professor Moriarty had spoken, and that was the composition of the jury.

“...... The members are made up of ordinary people. ”

"What kind of ordinary person?"

The question was raised by a voice that had never been present in an argument before.

"The average person who lives in this city is representative of the majority of those people, and I think the hunters can guarantee that. ”

"After that, the trial can begin, and I am willing, accept the final outcome of this trial, which is not contrary to the order within the hunters, and moreover, is also in accordance with the laws of the world. ”

The theater fell silent.

But the breath in the air has not stopped flowing, the hunters are exchanging their opinions, and they are moving towards unity.

"You've convinced us, Moriarty, and that's all that's left ...... Whether Sherlock Holmes agrees or not. ”

"I have no objection. ”

The air was quiet again.

"Let's get started. ”

......

"So, you want me to be a juror?"

"You are the most suitable person, Professor Magellan. ”

Watson placed a glass of water in front of Magellan and handed Arthur a cup of black tea.

"And what about Mr. Arthur?"

"I hate this kind of thing the most. ”

"What kind of thing?"

Answering Magellan's question was Sherlock Holmes: "A group of people sit together and spend a lot of time, but they just talk non-stop." ”

"Will Professor Moriarty agree?"

"It's Professor Moriarty who wants you to join the jury," Watson knew that Holmes didn't want Magellan to know too many details, but he wasn't prepared to do what the detective wanted, "This trial was originally proposed by Professor Moriarty, and Holmes was too bored to agree without even thinking about it." ”

Magellan knew that Watson was complaining that Holmes had once again put himself in a disadvantageous position because he couldn't stand boredom.

"Sorry, I've had some things lately. ”

Watson was a little surprised, but didn't say anything more.

"The explorer ......"

"Which explorer?"

"The one who had just received permission to explore from the King of the World, he had already set out from Swan Harbor in the southwest corner of the continent, accompanied by a large fleet and the blessing of the Pope. If your business is about him, then I suggest you go to the marshal first. ”

Magellan smiled: "No need. ”

He got up from the couch.

"I have to go. ”

Magellan walked out of the door, went downstairs up the stairs, said goodbye to the landlady, and went out into the street.

A few dozen meters south along Baker Street Avenue reveals an intersection where Magellan turns west, walks a little bit, and then burrows into an alley.

"Hi, Professor Magellan. ”

Sherlock Holmes stood in the alley, smoking a pipe, waiting for Magellan's arrival.

"Your talent is truly amazing, I shouldn't have been surprised, after all, it's Athena's favorite sacrifice......"

Magellan quietly glanced at Holmes, where the goddess Athena was standing and smiling at him.

The goddess has always been there, and has never left since her return from Emunchet, but Magellan has forced herself to forget.

"The kind of skill that hunters call qi is originally aimed at all living things. ”

"It's hard for someone who hasn't been trained to master advanced techniques as quickly as you do, and many of the hunters don't know that this technique works for all creatures. ”

"I'm curious," Magellan interrupted Holmes's compliment with a smile, though the Detective didn't mean it at all, "what is there that can let Watson know that you are hiding it from him, but you have to hide it from him?"

"Watson is overly focused on the unimportant aspects, as I saw when we first met, he is not more talented than the average person, and he is not trained enough professionally. ”

"That's how you get along, Holmes," Magellan shook his head helplessly, and Holmes showed this rare dullness in very few things, "what the hell is it?"

"I've finished this mystery, Professor Magellan, and I've solved the really hard part and found all the murderers, including Moriarty sitting in the center of the dark cobweb, and after that, this trial is a different story. Holmes inhaled deeply, the pipe in his mouth glowing red with a burning red light, and then slowly faded into darkness, "I want results, not wins." ”

"You're ready," Magellan smiled, and he saw a breathtaking determination in Holmes's face, like a fire burning in the dark abyss, and perhaps in the next moment, this determination would set off a terrifying volcanic eruption, "and let the murderers go unpunished?"

"Justice, that which stands above the law, is what I am not willing to give up, Professor Magellan, and this trial will practice the law. ”
