Conan reborn as a detective

Chapter 828 Holmes' Disciple

London, arrived at Heathrow Airport at noon local time, and Kudo Shinichi hid in the airport toilet for a while to wait for the antidote to expire, and then joined Xiaolan, uncle and Dr. journey of.

The first stop is, of course, the address of Sherlock Holmes at No. 221 B Baker Street, although it is only a scenic spot "Sherlock Holmes Museum" copied from the novel.

The influence of Sherlock Holmes in this world is much greater than Gao Cheng imagined. At least the atmosphere on Baker Street is quite strong. You can see tourists wearing Sherlock Holmes commemorative costumes everywhere. Fortunately, there are not many people visiting the museum. I had the opportunity to sit in the chair that Holmes sat on in his daily thinking.

Gao Cheng followed the uncle around casually.

After all, there is still too much difference. Once there are more tourists, there will be no atmosphere in any place. Especially after seeing the virtual game at the beginning, this museum is really uninteresting. The attractions are full of nature and feel a little immersive. nothing.

Conan almost felt the same way, but the reality was different from the virtual game after all, so he stayed for a while before planning to leave.

"Is Conan going out already?" Xiaolan, who was still taking pictures, asked in surprise.

"It's already satisfying," Conan said satisfied, "and the souvenir shop is next door... If Holmes is really here, I can stay for a few days."

Walking out of the museum, a little foreign boy who was arguing with the guard at the door caught Conan's attention, and seemed to be looking for Holmes.

"There really is no Sherlock Holmes here..."

"Liar! Sherlock Holmes obviously lives here! Let me see him quickly!!"

"Little friend," the guard said with difficulty, "Mr. Holmes has gone out to work..."

"Then what case are you talking about!"

"This is..."

"Look, you are lying!" cried the little boy. "If you don't hurry, someone will be killed! Only Holmes can stop it!"

Conan listened curiously for a while, and seeing the little boy was about to leave angrily, he didn't bother to buy souvenirs, so he caught up and asked, "Hello, can you tell me what happened just now?"

"Huh? You can speak English?" The little boy looked at Conan in surprise, and snorted, "Why should I tell you? My sister's competition is about to start, I don't have time..."

Conan smiled and said, "Because I am a student of Holmes, are you Glass?"

The little boy was even more surprised. He looked at Conan seriously and said, "You, how do you know my last name? Do you know me?"

"It only takes a simple reasoning to know," Conan twitched his fingers, and analyzed easily, "There is white liquid and powder standing around your mouth...the cream and sugar sprinkled on the strawberries, right? And the cup in my hand contains lime, cucumber and mint. It should be a drink called Pimm's... Speaking of sports games that you can watch while eating strawberries and drinking Pimm's, this time it should be Wimbledon. It's..."

While talking, Conan checked the time on the watch under the stunned gaze of the little boy and said, "Today is the semi-finals of the women's singles. The first match started at 1:2 for Xiao Wu. It was the second round. One of the contestants was Wang Haili, whose parents are both Chinese. Your face doesn't look Asian at all...

"In this case, she is her opponent, the Wimbledon champion for four consecutive years, the world's number one lawn tennis queen, Minerva Glass is your sister, right?"

"right……"

"And can vaguely see this Wimbledon VIP lounge pass in your breast pocket."

Conan pulled out a pass card hanging from a string from the little boy's pocket, and the little boy finally regained his composure, and asked Conan excitedly, "That's amazing! Are you really Sherlock Holmes' disciple? "

Conan smiled and did not explain, but asked instead: "So, can you tell me what you said just now that someone will be killed?"

"Yeah!" The little boy nodded repeatedly and said worriedly, "Just after noon, I was eating strawberries while watching the practice of the winners on field 15. The uncle sitting behind me suddenly came to me and said that someone would To die, somewhere in London, before my very eyes..."

Conan said cautiously after hearing the words: "Did you see that guy's face?"

"No, he wore his hat so low that he couldn't see it clearly, but he gave me a very strange piece of paper and asked me to tell the Metropolitan Police that it was his revelation, and said that if it couldn't be solved If so, go and ask Holmes..."

Gao Cheng didn't intend to buy souvenirs, instead he took a few photos and walked around with Mori Kogoro next to him, and finally left with other tourists. He didn't find out that Conan didn't buy souvenirs until he went downstairs. Instead, I hold a piece of paper and don't know what I'm studying.

"What's wrong?" Mori Kogoro asked suspiciously when he saw the little boy who ran away in a hurry, "Could it be that you can cause trouble for me when you go to a foreign country?"

"Actually," Conan said with a dry smile, sweating slightly on his forehead, "the guy who announced the murder gave him a code note, and the kid asked me to go to the police."

"signal?"

"The ringing of the bell woke me up,

I am the long-nosed magician who lives in the castle,

The only thing that can be used to fill the stomach is a boiled egg as cold as a corpse,
In the end, it is enough to eat pickled melon directly.

By the way, order a celebration cake first,

The bell tolling again aroused my abhorrence,

Let it all be over, stick two swords behind White's back..."

"It's these seven lines of text."

"Ah?" Xiaolan read the lines of poetic English on the paper, "What the hell is this? It feels a little scary..."

"The man who announced the murder said it was his apocalypse, probably something like a crime forecast..."

Conan took pictures of all the words on the paper with his mobile phone. Seeing that Gao Cheng beside him seemed to be studying it seriously, he opened his mouth but didn't ask any questions.

As for the password, Gao Cheng probably couldn't help much, especially if he didn't know anything about the prisoner.

London Metropolitan Police.

Surprisingly, there were many children and parents who also held papers. It seems that not only the little boy Conan met, but also many children also met the criminals. The testimonies are the same, and they all said that they were wearing hats. , a dark-skinned man with dreadlocks, giving them that paper by the side of the road or in a park or something.

Gao Cheng hadn't figured out the content of the code yet, but he heard Conan tell again how the little boy Glass met the prisoner. The children who came to the Metropolitan Police Department were similar. ".

The criminal seems to be preparing to kill a large number of people...

Gao Cheng questioned several children one after another. After paying the price of some candies, he found that the prisoner not only asked these children to come to the Metropolitan Police Department, but also told almost everyone to find Sherlock Holmes if they couldn't understand the password.

This is very abnormal. Sherlock Holmes is just a character in a novel. Even if he provokes the police, there is no need to tell the children.

Moreover, there are too many children being contacted. From the perspective of criminal behavior, this is very unreasonable, and it will only greatly increase the possibility of being exposed.

Outside the police station, Conan was still analyzing the situation with his uncle.

"Many of the children who got the paper were wearing bicycle helmets. They said that they would stare at the TV every day to watch the Tour de France, which was broadcast almost at the same time as Wimbledon. It was impossible to watch two games at the same time, so the prisoners The 'die in front of your eyes' should not refer to the TV..."

As Conan said, he grabbed Dr. Li, and said to Gao Cheng and the uncle: "Anyway, you go to the place where there may be a lot of people gathering first, maybe you can find some clues, and the doctor and I will try to unlock the code!"

Gao Cheng and Mori Kogoro who stayed behind glanced at each other, and then at Xiaolan who was about to chase after Conan.

"What should I do? Do you want to look for it?" Uncle Maori asked.

"Yes."

Gao Cheng secretly sighed.

Conan, how about grouping like this?Xiaolan will not talk about it, the uncle has no drama at all.

"Really," Xiaolan was still worried about Conan, "I have to have dinner with Ms. Diana at the hotel tonight."

"It doesn't matter," the uncle said indifferently, "With Dr. A Li following him, he won't get lost. It's really worrying if he is with Kido."

"Hey……"

Gao Cheng followed behind the uncle.

He knew why Conan took away Dr. Ali to investigate alone, probably because he was worried that he would be tied up in front of Xiaolan and unable to concentrate on solving the mystery.

However, it is indeed a good idea to collect information separately. After all, London is not too small, and it is not known when the prisoner will act, and there is not enough time.
