Rebirth from Conan

Chapter 136 Baker Street Casino

221 Baker Street.

When Xia He and his companions arrived at Holmes' door, they learned from the maid that Holmes had gone on a business trip to Dartmoor with Watson.

"Dartmore?" Yuanzi looked at Xia He in confusion, "Didn't they say that Sherlock Holmes would help us catch the criminal? What's going on now?"

Before Xia He could answer, Conan said, "The Hound of the Baskervilles incident... In the novel, the two of them did leave London temporarily at this time."

"Then does that mean there will be no one to help us?" Upon hearing this, everyone began to show worry on their faces again.

Originally in the script designed by Yusaku Kudo, the player was supposed to work with Sherlock Holmes to find out the true identity of Jack the Ripper. In the end, it was discovered that this notorious serial killer was actually an aristocrat who was suffering from a terminal illness and wanted to take revenge on society.

But now...

With the intervention of Noah's Ark, not only did Holmes and Watson disappear, but even the identity of Jack the Ripper was changed.

Although the content it modifies is the real history.

"You really did it thoroughly." Xia He complained while standing behind Noah's Ark.

"Oh, so what? You should think carefully about how to find out the identity of Jack the Ripper." Noah's Ark sneered.

Although he still did not accept the bet proposed by Xia He, it can be seen that he did expect Xia He to be able to solve his puzzle.

As the plot of the game progresses, the Young Detectives were mistaken for the Baker Street Guerrillas and were invited into Holmes's residence by the maid.

Conan took this opportunity to search around the study and soon found information about Jack the Ripper.

Just looking at the records above, all of this seems to be inextricably linked to Professor Moriarty.

"Who is Professor Moriarty?" asked Sonoko.

"Holmes's archenemy controls the black zone in London and has a huge influence on all of Europe." Xia He replied.

As a child, under the influence of Conan, Xia He naturally had some understanding of the plot of the Sherlock Holmes series.

"But Professor Moriarty is the one who always controls the situation behind the scenes, and rarely reveals his whereabouts..." Conan muttered in some difficulty.

As for whether finding the other party would put him in danger...

What a joke, with Xia He here, who would worry about this?

No matter how many people come, they can never be a match for Xia He, okay!
"Why don't we go find Professor Moriarty's confidant, Colonel Shebascha Monlang?" Xia He continued to give Conan hints.

"Colonel Meng Lang? But we don't know where Colonel Meng Lang is either."

"Holmes' notebook records the places where Monroe often appears." Huiyuan Ai came over with a notebook, "It says that he goes to the poker club in the city center to gamble with people almost every day."

"Then let's go to the poker club." Conan nodded with a little excitement.

Although Colonel Monlang is the second most dangerous person in London, Conan can't help but get excited at the thought of meeting the character in his favorite novel, so much so that he even forgets his current situation.

"I will go in and investigate the situation, and you just need to be on guard outside."

As Xia He said this, he walked straight to Holmes' desk and took out a revolver from it.

He turned the revolver and took a look at the bullets inside, six full rounds. Xia He nodded with satisfaction and then stuffed them into the waistband of his pants.

Conan and others saw this and didn't say much.

Xia He was already very strong, and now he had a gun in his hand, so they naturally felt a lot more at ease.

Only Noah's Ark frowned in confusion again.

"How did this guy know I put a gun in there?"

When it thought of Xia He's extremely powerful fighting ability, it began to become a little conflicted again.

Should I get rid of this gun? ...

About half an hour later.

Poker Club.

Amid everyone's expectant expressions, Xia He slipped into the club through the back door alone.

At the same time, the number of players displayed on Big Ben has dropped to less than thirty.

"I hope Xia He can get the murderer's information directly from Colonel Menglang's mouth." Conan muttered to himself.

Similarly, Noah's Ark was also filled with anxiety.

On the one hand, it expects Xia He to solve the mystery and expose the life story of Jack the Ripper.

On the one hand, it is obsessed with helping the deceased Hiroki Sawada and changing the future of Japan.

The two ideas were mixed up in the program, causing it to crash again.

"Why don't we just...let nature take its course?"

……

"Two, three, four, five, six, straight."

"Sorry, flush."

A very proud laugh was heard.

A white-haired gentleman in a gray suit reached out and took all the coins on the table in front of him.

This person is none other than Shebascha Monlang, the second-in-command of the dark forces in London.

He was playing poker with a businessman at the moment, and used a monkey that he had trained for a long time to peek at his opponent's cards, and then give clues by eating fruits of different colors in order to cheat.

Seeing this, Xia He did not choose to expose the situation. Instead, he approached the gambling table calmly and used his magic to easily "take" a few chips and put them in his pocket. Then he looked at Colonel Meng Lang and others and said, "Would it be convenient for me to join in?"

"Ok?"

Meng Lang glanced at Xia He.

He had just won a lot of money, so he was in a very good mood at the moment.

At this moment, the businessman who was cheated by him lost all his money and obviously had no way to continue the gambling. In addition, Xia He took the initiative to sit in front of his monkey, so Meng Lang's eyes turned slightly and he immediately chose to agree.

"Do you understand the rules?" he asked.

"Of course." Xia He nodded with a smile.

"You look a little strange to me. You must have never been here before, right?"

"I've only recently become addicted to the recreational activity of playing cards."

Xia He said, taking out the chips from his pocket and placing them on the table, "Let's play a few small hands first."

Seeing this, Meng Lang took a deep puff of his cigar and then signaled the dealer beside him to deal the cards.

however……

After some time.

When the chips in front of Xia He became more and more, and were about to pile up into a small mountain, Meng Lang's expression finally began to become a little uneasy.
