Chapter 176: Sherlock's Perfect Logic
“…… This kid just lived so quickly? ”
On Friday morning, Sherlock squinted slightly as he looked at the man who had appeared on the front page of the newspaper again.
Of course, he also knows that many of the news in the "Glass Steps" are "versions that ordinary people can know".
For example, when Ivas first raided the Pelican Bar, he only said that it was a cultist base. Their behavior, their ideas, their actions, and their combat effectiveness and characteristics will not be mentioned. But basically, there is not much deviation from the truth.
According to the newspaper, Eivers described that "the kidnappers were very kind to him and did not hurt herself" and even wondered "whether she was a kidnapper at all".
"Because she is a very polite, very elegant and beautiful young lady," Ivas reminisces in a wheelchair at the home of the Great Guardian, "when I was suddenly attacked in the middle of the night, and I was almost killed by surprise. But with the help of another friend of mine, I was able to resolve it safely.
"And when I was relieved, I sent her away to sleep after the treatment. But the eldest lady suddenly appeared, enveloping us with a powerful shadow force, taking Miss Lily and me away...... She's so much stronger than those people, and we're defenseless the whole time.
"During this time, she just didn't allow us to go out, but she barely asked me about anything, didn't hurt us, and cooked for us. Just two days later, all of a sudden, we were released.
"I don't know if she's called 'Aleister,' and I'm not sure if you're talking about Aleister or not."
"All I know is that she has chestnut curly hair," Ivas concluded. It really didn't hurt me. ”
On the magic painting in the newspaper, a white griffon can be seen taking off behind Ivus, indicating that he is at least within the control of the Avalon higher-ups and can prove his safety. You can also see that his complexion is indeed very good, and it can even be said that he is in good spirits. There really isn't anything wrong with that.
As long as you read the newspaper, you will definitely be relieved.
And below in the interview with Ewas, there is also a mention of "Aleister". At the scene of Eivus's disappearance, there were traces of transcendent beings who had transcended the path, and the specific category was Shadow Fiend.
According to the Inspectorate's investigation, there is a demon in the Noble Red Society, whose code name or real name is "Aleister", who is possessed by a shadow demon. So at that time, it was thought that Eivas was captured by Aless.
It is still uncertain whether Aleister is an eldest lady, or whether the person who took Ehuas away is not "Arest", and the real Aleister is still a mystery...... In any case, the name "Aleister" will become well-known on the island of Perlis.
Readers will also be curious about the story between Ivas and the "Miss Aleister" - did nothing really happen to them?
If you can make Ivas say that she is elegant and beautiful, she should be a real aristocratic lady, right?
The people of Avalon are curious about the "nobility".
- Heh, vixen.
Do you have to add a lace news to yourself when you fake your death? You're really not afraid of being victimized.
Sherlock sneered before he began to think seriously.
He found some disagreements in this confession.
If, as previously speculated in the newspapers, Aleister was a member of the Noble Red, then the news would be tantamount to roasting the other party on a fire. In the case of Ivas being "really attacked", according to his character, he should not directly expose the savior.
So it's not a script he wrote himself.
Because the fox wouldn't have made such an obvious loophole.
This should be the version that someone gave him...... That could only be the Inspectorate.
"And, Miss Iris......"
Sherlock muttered under his breath.
He did know that there was a girl with irises who was connected to Ivus.
- That's the girl who used to distribute "Dracula" everywhere at the White Shoes Club, and her hair was similar to maroon. Considering that the light source of the club is different from the outside world, it is reasonable to have subtle differences in the hair color that appears.
It didn't matter what the young lady's name was in Avalon, it was all a pseudonym anyway. Maybe her real surname is Arest, or maybe "Arest" is another of her pseudonyms.
But Sherlock could see that her manners and grammar were specially trained, that she was always well dressed when she traveled, and that she had a subconscious self-esteem. It's really like a noble lady.
She is the murderer of the previous assassination of the secretary of the Minister Drost, and it is also the reason for the indirect exposure of the trade secretary's involvement in the smuggling case.
Edward had mentioned this to him.
According to the follow-up investigation, it can be basically determined that she is an iris person.
The Inspectorate's investigation report suggests that she was most likely a spy sent by Iris, who had come to frame the Secretary of State for Trade to disrupt Avalon's stable political environment and steal trade information - of course, the final conclusion was partly unbelievable to Edward and him.
This is most likely a report made by the fat old man to defend himself through his own connections.
Because according to Sherlock's reasoning, there is a ninety percent chance that the minister was not framed - there was something wrong with him.
- If you are a spy, how can you help Avalon eliminate the traitors with justice?
They could have liaised with Minister Drost and then come to a cooperation. Even if he wanted to kill him, it would be a decision to kill him after contacting him to no avail—but if that was the case, then Drost would definitely tell the matter directly. This is the most favorable evidence to prove his innocence.
Taking a step back, it is impossible for a spy to be so high-profile and wear so beautifully every day.
She wished everyone was focused on her, even perfume and makeup—it was a glass island, and every hour outside of Lloyd's, she could always see griffons flying. Who would be so narcissistic...... If she was such a narcissistic spy, it would not be her turn to assassinate the minister's secretary.
In this direction, the chain of evidence that Miss Assassin was a spy was completely broken.
But now, Ivas has added new evidence to him.
- If you think about it from another angle, everything makes sense.
That is, the Assassin lady had a personal vendetta with Minister Drost. She had come from the beginning to expose Minister Drost, so her strange behavior could be explained.
"Then things become logical."
Sherlock muttered.
And, if she's a spy for Iris, then she doesn't have to run away at all.
Because every year Avalon and Iris exchange spies with each other. A real spy will surrender as soon as his identity is revealed...... A Living Spy is a very valuable resource, and if the Spy surrenders, she will not be harmed further.
Although she assassinated the minister's secretary, she didn't do anything else, and she was soon exchanged. On the other hand, if you run away, you can easily be killed by the griffons on the spot.
Chancellor Drost, there is no doubt that he is connected with the Noble Red Society.
In addition, after the "disappearance" of Eivers, it was not long before the vice president of Boca and the president of Lloyd were arrested. According to Ivus, Lloyd's has a close relationship with the Noble Red Society...... So Ivas disappeared this time to bring down Lloyd's - and this is against the noble Red Society.
Although Ivas is a fake disappearance, his "disappearance scene" does have shadow traces. Otherwise, the Inspectorate will not be able to deceive the Inspectorate.
So, how exactly did Ivus leave shadow trails when he didn't have the ability to shadow?
- Eliminate all impossibilities, and all that remains is the possibility.
That was Ivas and the demon "Aleister" who was possessed by the shadow demon, and it was a partnership from the very beginning.
The reason why he was able to see through the shadows and find the eldest lady in the shadow at that time was because the other party had already told him. Sherlock had never heard of the ability of Shadow Stealth, but it would make sense to say that it was Shadow Fiend.
Sherlock thought about it for a long time, but he didn't understand where Ivas had seen through the truth of the incident. But if, from the very beginning, Ivas knew she would be there, then everything was right.
It's a two-player drama in which Ivas plays the role of a detective.
He is just to cooperate with the other party and expose the crimes of Minister Drost!
Perhaps in the first place, when Ivus cleared the Pelican bar, the other party had already contacted him. Even earlier, when Ivus was first sacrificed, they had known each other.
And through that cooperation in the club, they officially reached a cooperation.
At that time, the whole of Avalon was looking for the Miss Assassin, and it was said that she was a spy of Iris and intended to assassinate Her Royal Highness, and no one would dare to cause such trouble.
But in the end, she managed to escape - in the face of countless people chasing and intercepting her, she simply disappeared. Until Ivus also followed the "disappearance", there was no news of her.
Looking back now, she may have been hidden by Ivas in her dorm room. It was a mansion given by Her Highness Isabel, and no one dared to search there. And she has always been with Ivus, and with Ivus against the noble red.
It wasn't until the noble red attacked and assassinated at night that Ivus called out in the middle of the night.
Otherwise, Ivus would not have been able to defeat so many and so strong enemies anyway.
He's smart and smart, but if he can't beat it, he can't beat it. Sherlock agrees.
After defeating those enemies, Ivus asked her to leave traces and help make evidence that she had faked her death and was kidnapped by her!
In this way, all logic is closed.
If you use this version, you will be able to tell "how Eivus escaped after being sacrificed", "If Eivus didn't know that the Mentor was dead, why did he dare to take revenge on the Pelican Bar, which he knew was the stronghold of the Noble Red", "Why did Ewas, who was not from Lloyd's, know that the Brotherhood of Sweaters and Lloyd's were related to the Noble Red", "How Eivas discovered the powerful transcendent who was stealing in the shadows", "Why did the Assassin disappear for no apparent reason", and " How did the shadow traces of Ivus's fake death and disappearance remain" and many other questions, all explained in one go!
"—Kanaya Zangjiao, Mr. Fox."
Sherlock snorted.
Sure enough, it's a merry fox!
"What is the Golden House?"
Bishop Mathers, who entered the door, was stunned for a moment, and inquired with interest.
