Iwass is a little nervous just thinking about the fact that Sherlock Hermes and James Moriarty, the two old enemies of the original film, faked their deaths today.

However, Ivas is keen to capture a blind spot here.

The reason why Lawyer York was able to confirm Sherlock directly was simple was that he was the one who did it himself. He gave Sherlock sleeping pills and detonated enough of the bomb he had prepared before the effect of the drug began. I also received the news of Sherlock's death at a reasonable time.

From this point of view, he was able to determine the root cause of Sherlock's death...... Actually, it was because York hoped from the bottom of his heart.

Although the position of the York consultant within Lloyd's seems to be relatively high, he is actually in a difficult situation at the moment. He must not expose himself in this case, and he must kill Sherlock himself.

As long as the bomb didn't kill Sherlock, whether he went to mend the knife or not, it was easy to expose himself. So he didn't want to hear about Sherlock's survival - so he subconsciously used the information he gathered to corroborate his own beliefs. This is also the preparation he made in advance in order to convince other high-level executives.

From this point of view, Lloyd's can confirm that Professor Moriarty is dead...... Does it mean that they are involved in this matter itself?

After all, divination may be disrupted, and it is not necessarily entirely correct. And the energy level is too low to accurately divinate the high-ranking person. Since Lloyd's was able to hire a prophet to do divination for them, it must have been aware of such limitations.

Then they can confirm the death without identifying the body...... They can only be involved in this. For example, they sent someone to assassinate the professor, and that person brought back the news of the other person's death, and perhaps evidence that the other person was dead. Because of this, they confirm this fact after one divination and put their minds at ease.

Another possibility is that they don't really need Professor Moriarty to die.

It was enough for Lloyd's to give Professor Moriarty a temporary death on a social level. Temporarily unable to return to the Isle of Glass to give them a time lag in their plans.

Either way, it's not unlikely, it's not unlikely. And both possibilities have one thing in common – Lloyd's has no good intentions towards Eivers.

It was their eagerness to take advantage of Ivas that they would call him here in advance and report Professor Moriarty's death to him. This is to keep Ivas from having time to confirm and think, and at the same time to put pressure on him.

Ivus narrowed his eyes slightly, and had a plan in mind.

He decided to attack with a straight ball and fight for the initiative.

So he no longer hid, and suddenly said, "Lawyer York, you seem to be in a hurry. ”

The moment Ivas said this, York's face changed slightly.

He tilted his head slightly to the left, his chin resting on the tips of his raised left fingers. The three fingers of his right hand flicked rhythmically on the armrest, like playing an air piano.

Looking at Lawyer York, Ivas spoke slowly, tapping him, "You don't seem to be saddened by my father's death. ”

"That's because ......"

"Because his death is more in your interest. Whether he was truly tragically dead, missing, or just a lie that I could not verify and that temporarily deceived me.

"But in any case, if you tell me this information in advance, and not come to me after I have seen the newspaper myself, or even after I have encountered a dilemma in reality, it means that you are in a hurry. Because obviously, the latter is easier for me to believe, and therefore easier to win me over. ”

The so-called icing on the cake is not as good as sending charcoal in the snow.

"Lloyd's is a collection of businessmen. It can make a group of businessmen abandon the plan with the lowest risk and the greatest benefits, and choose to start my line in advance. Can I understand that you are not in such a safe situation at the moment as you appear to be now? ”

Aihuas's eyes were half-narrowed, as if he was a little sleepy.

He spoke slowly, in a low and clear voice, like a whisper to a child: "From Sherlock's funeral, he took me directly to Lloyd's headquarters without letting me go home; Let me sit in that rickety elevator; Show you photos with so many big people without a trace; Use the Stripping Ogre to intimidate me; It makes no sense to point out the fact that you can monitor the 'noble red', and report the death of my father......

"You're putting pressure on me one after another, do you want me to promise you something here? Let's talk about it first, maybe I'll be able to do it easily. ”

Ivus narrowed his eyes, and the corners of his mouth rose slightly: "Let me guess...... Have you made a mistake lately? That's why you have to urgently pull me into the gang and use this merit to hedge against your mistakes.

"Looking at the look in your eyes, I seem to have guessed correctly."

“…… Aren't you afraid at all? ”

Lawyer York scratched his head in annoyance, but there was no coercion on his face.

Ivas also said with a smile, showing his worth: "Actually, I informed Mr. McCroft before I came here; Before I got into the car, I also made a special announcement to Oswald Butler. You don't want me to have an accident here, do you, Lawyer York? This is one of them.

"Second, you went around in such a big circle and spent so much effort trying to persuade me to tell me the story of Prince Lloyd and the backwardness of the royal family, which shows that I have a special value. You can't control me through simple means like coercion or inducement.

"Finally...... I guess there's someone at the door right now, and it's probably the vice president of Boca. He should have been at the door before you spoke to me about my father's death. ”

"—how did you guess?"

A calm voice came from the doorway.

Pushing the door in, there was a middle-aged man with half-black, half-white hair and two mustaches. He wears a dark blue suit and has a square face. The hair was neatly groomed, but there was no hairspray or wax.

The middle-aged businessman looks like a man who doesn't smile. As soon as he entered the door, he subconsciously put his hands behind his back and walked slowly behind York's lawyer.

Ivus just smiled gently, raised his left hand and scratched it in the void, and said hello to the man who entered the door behind.

He said lazily, "Just say yes first, Mr. Boca."

"Now that you're in the door, I wonder if Mr. York won't get the credit for it? That's a pity, I think he's a good guy. ”

"He won't be less credited because you're worth a lot more than we expected."

Without even asking York's lawyers, Mr. Boca spoke directly to Ivas instead.

It's completely different from the York lawyer, who is always cheerful, soft-spoken.

Vice President Boca's words were more straightforward, impactful and captivating: "Do you want to be king, Mr. Ewass?" Better than the 'Prince'...... And it's not just 'Moriarty' either. ”

Ivus raised an eyebrow and asked rhetorically, "Who wouldn't?" ”

"But you have that opportunity right now. If you're lucky, it's not even the king – it's the 'emperor'. ”

Boca's voice was deep and magnetic, and his words were full of demagogy: "It's entirely possible. You know, we are all merchants, and we all have our own markets and businesses. No one wants the old stable market to be smashed to pieces, and those white crowns and red candles are stolen by wild seeds that don't know where.

"From this point of view, we are actually the maintainers of order in Avalon. Just as Lloyd's is maintaining order in Lloyd's. ”

“…… What do you value is my relationship with Isabel? ”

Ivas did not shy away from calling Her Royal Highness by name.

He tilted his head slightly and asked, "Then why should I cooperate with you?" ”

Hearing this, the corners of Boca's and York's mouths rose slightly.

"It's normal for young people to be vigorous."

York took over the conversation and happily played the round: "Who hasn't had a young age?" Not to mention a young man as good as Ivace......"

"Mr. Ewas, this is a business that we have been running for many years. From the very beginning, Lloyd's has had a mission to be the transcendent – and in that sense, you are the latecomer.

"The ancestors used two hundred years to lay the groundwork for the situation, and then the latecomers mistakenly broke in and picked the fruit. At this time, if the latecomer chooses to eat alone, do you think all he needs to fight against is the royal family? Don't forget, Mr. Ivas – we are all underdogs compared to the official. There is no need for the weak side to fight the weak side, we need to unite with each other. ”

When he persuaded Ewas, Boca said more directly.

Hearing this, Ivas raised his eyebrows: "You did the royal curse?" ”

"It's not all us."

Boca replied: "A lot of people want to do that. Star antimony, irises, round table ......

"More than 400 years. Four hundred years have passed since Lancelot I led the Knights of the Round Table to occupy Avalon and renamed it the Isle of Glass.

"I remember that your mentor taught history - do you know what it means to be a country that has lasted for four hundred years, without a single break in the lineage, without civil wars or rebellions, without a change of kingship, and without a change of customs?"

It means decay, but it also means change.
