"Tony, good news for you, we've found that Professor Moriarty!" On this day, Sheriff Klein suddenly came to Monet in a hurry.

"What?! You caught Professor Moriarty who instructed someone to steal my manuscript and instruct Cliff to impersonate Jack? Monet asked in surprise.

Sheriff Klein hesitated for a moment, then nodded and replied, "Although he didn't admit it, it should be him, because this guy's current identity is a crime consultant!" ”

"Crime consultants? What does that mean? Monet asked puzzled.

"To put it simply, he is providing criminal plans to those who want to commit crimes, and of course, if you give more money, he will also help you develop a criminal plan that meets your requirements!" Sheriff Klein explained.

Hearing this explanation, Monet couldn't help but exclaim: "Ju, there are still such people? Isn't he afraid of being arrested by the police? ”

Sergeant Klein shook his head a little depressed and replied: "Strictly speaking, he didn't commit a crime, because what he sold was just a novel, that is to say, he wrote a novel according to your requirements, as for whether you use the criminal methods in it, that's your business, and it has nothing to do with him!" ”

"This guy can really take advantage of loopholes!" Monet said hatefully, and at the same time remembered the words that Officer Andrei had advised him not to write detective novels again, and there are really such people in this world who instigate crimes!

At the same time, he also figured out a sentence in Sheriff Klein's words just now: "That's why you said you found this guy instead of catching him, right?" ”

"That's right, because according to the law, this guy didn't commit a crime, so we can't arrest him just yet!" Speaking of this, Sheriff Klein suddenly changed his words: "However, this guy is still too naïve, and our police have a way to clean him up, so today I am looking for you to arrest him with me!" ”

"Great, let's go!"

Somewhat unexpectedly, when he came to the home of James, who claimed to be "Professor Moriarty of New York", before Monet could speak, James recognized them: "Oh, you are Mr. Tony Monet, the author of "Detective Downing", and this police officer should be Sheriff Klein, who often works with you, right?" ”

Monet was surprised and asked, "Hey, I think I'm going to see you for the first time, Mr. James, right?" ”

James nodded and replied, "Yes, it's the first time we've met, but as a good crime consultant, how could you not know the best detective fiction writer and Mr. Sheriff in New York City?" And speaking of which, I've been looking forward to such a meeting for a long time. ”

"Oh? Why? Monet asked quietly.

"Because talking to you will help me make up for the omissions in my future work plans!"

"Okay, now that you've recognized us, then I won't go around in circles with you, you see that these crime plans are all from you, right?" Sheriff Klein asked bluntly.

James corrected: "Sheriff Klein, to be precise, this is a detective novel I wrote, but there is more detail about the crime!" ”

"Looks like you're quite proud of your work?" Monet scoffed.

"Of course, these are perfect crimes!" James replied triumphantly.

"Then why did this customer who bought your novel get caught?" Monet asked, picking up a book of crime plans.

James looked at it for a moment, and then replied: "This is a criminal design of a bank robbery, and the reason why it failed was because a welding torch was needed in this case, but this guy didn't buy it because it was too expensive, and he didn't open the safe within the specified time, so he was caught!" ”

"What about this?" Sheriff Klein also picked up a copy of the crime plan and asked.

"Oh, it's a roadblock design that failed because this guy was too fat to escape!" James explained.

"Cut, what kind of perfect crime are you, haven't you been caught!" Monet scoffed.

At this moment, James was a little nervous, and hurriedly defended: "You just saw a few stupid people who were caught, but in fact, according to my design, there are as many people as there are to succeed!" There have been several unsolved cases in the past few years, and the criminals in those cases are all my customers! ”

"Can you tell us more about these cases?" Sheriff Klein said coldly.

James shrugged his shoulders and replied: "I'm very sorry, I can't tell you this, after all, I can't leak the personal information of customers casually, and after all, I am just an author who writes crime novels, this is not a criminal act, the places, characters, and buildings involved in the novel are all overhead, and have nothing to do with reality at all!" ”

Looking at James's triumphant appearance, Sheriff Klein snorted coldly: "You are still too naïve, do you really think that our police can't move you?" ”

As he spoke, he walked out the door and shouted, "Randall brought someone here!" ”

Then Randall came over with a lewd middle-aged man, and then pointed at James and asked, "Did he instruct you to steal the bank safe?" ”

The lewd man nodded again and again and replied, "That's right, it's him, he came up with the idea!" ”

Seeing the lewd man say this, James looked flustered and asked, "You, how can you say that?" It's clear that you're going on your own, I'm just helping you come up with an idea! ”

But the lewd man was unmoved and still said to Randall: "Mr. Policeman, don't listen to him, he is the mastermind!" ”

At this time, Sheriff Klein came over and said to James with a smile: "Let's go, Professor Moriarty, come with us to the police station!" ”

"I—Why should I go with you? You have no proof! James argued.

Sheriff Klein shook the crime plan in his hand and pointed at the lewd man: "Why is there no evidence, isn't this all human and physical evidence, what do you want to quibble?" ”

"But, but I'm a novel, it's just a novel!" James insisted.

Sheriff Klein shrugged and replied, "Whether this is fiction or physical evidence is not up to you, it depends on how the judge decides, I can only advise you to hire a good lawyer!" ”

In the end, James had no choice but to follow Sheriff Klein out, and at this time Monet asked on the side: "Did you instruct Cliff to pretend to be Jack and then kill him?" ”
