The 'Jack the Ripper copycat' that happened around Whitechapel before was Xiaolan!

Shocked by this truth, Edogawa Conan looked around in a daze.

A feeling of helplessness made him feel cold in his heart.

"Where are you now?" After finally regaining his composure, Edogawa Conan asked in a muffled voice.

Taichi looked around and then reported a fairly conspicuous iconic object.

After hanging up the phone, Taichi and Mao Li Ran looked at each other silently, without letting go of each other's hands.

"Jack the Ripper, I finally found you."

Just when Taichi and Mao Lilan didn't speak first and just looked at each other silently, a magnetic voice suddenly came from the corner.

The two turned their heads and saw a middle-aged man who was obviously dressed as Sherlock Holmes standing there with a confident expression on his face, pointing his finger at Mao Lilan.

Tai was stunned for a moment, and the expression on his face gradually became more and more weird.

He felt as if he was about to grasp a glimmer of light in this incident.

But it just lacks that last bit of fire.

"Sir, if I were you, I would let go of her wrist, because you don't know if she will suddenly pull out a dagger from somewhere and cut your wrist artery in the next moment." The man glanced at Taiyi and reminded him.

As if she had received some signal, Mao Lilan suddenly increased the strength in her hands. After breaking free from Taiyi's restraints, she took out a dagger from behind her waist and slashed at Taiyi's wrist artery.

Fortunately, Taiyi reacted in time and immediately retracted his hand. He reached out again to try to knock the dagger out of Mao Lilan's hand and then further restrain her.

But this time, Mao Lilan's reaction speed was several levels higher than before.

Taiyi took a few steps back, then glanced at the middle-aged man standing next to him.

He had reason to believe that this guy who suddenly appeared was the Shadow Mage's...backup.

Otherwise, as soon as he arrived, Mao Lilan wouldn't have suddenly exploded as if she had been strengthened.

It's very likely what he just did.

But why is Shadow Mage’s back-up dressed as Sherlock Holmes?

"Who are you?" Taiyi asked.

"Sherlock Holmes." The other party readily reported his name, "A detective who is looking for Jack the Ripper and intends to arrest him."

"So, you think that girl over there is the Jack the Ripper you are tracking?" Taichi pointed at Mao Lilan and asked.

"Well, I have to admit that I only set out to look for him after hearing the rumors about Whitechapel." The other party shrugged helplessly. "Before this, I never thought that the reason for my appearance in the real world was to arrest this... opponent who had never crossed paths with me in the original novel."

"The real world? The plot of a novel?" Taiyi turned his head and looked at Sherlock Holmes in some surprise.

He found that he seemed to understand a little bit about what this shadow mage was up to.

Because he discovered that Mordred, Minamoto no Raikou and Jeanne on his side had appeared in the real world before, and he could even use the power of the personality mask in the real world, so he planned to pretend to be "Sherlock Holmes" and infiltrate the enemy's power system?

Well, if the source of power of his personality mask really comes from the impression space and the palace, then the Shadow Mage's plan might actually be possible.

But it's a pity.

Taichi is very clear about the specific source of the power of his personality mask.

It is also clear what kind of posture and face Holmes would have if he really appeared in the world.

That handsome guy with a very nice smile is not someone that this middle-aged greasy uncle with a hooked nose can mess with!

[“To be honest, I felt very embarrassed watching the scene with Shadow Mage.” Achilles complained in his mental meeting.

"Holmes... Generally speaking, Holmes wouldn't take the initiative to find out the truth of a matter unless he received a commission, right?" Axe sighed helplessly, "But I didn't sense the energy fluctuations of the Shadow Mage from this person..."

"It's probably some kind of specialised clone." Himiko made her guess, "Because X has already caught up with him several times by tracking his energy remnants, so this new type of clone was specially created to prevent our investigation."]

Chapter 150 Shadow Mage: As long as I don’t admit it, I haven’t lost

"There's no time to explain, Mr. Naruto." Holmes Shadow Mage assumed a Barton Technique stance and urged Taichi, "We have to stop her before she commits more sins."

After saying this, Shadow Mage Holmes took the initiative to attack Mao Lilan.

Holding a dagger, Mao Lilan skillfully drew out several cold rays of light, blocking the attack of Holmes Shadow Mage.

Taiyi quietly moved to the other side.

Otherwise, he was worried that a satellite football would fly over and accidentally injure or affect him.

You can always trust Dr. Agasa's finished inventions.

"What are you going to do...Xiaolan!" Along with an angry shout, the sound of surging electricity and wind came from not far away.

Before Taichi could turn around to look, the football shining with dazzling light passed by him and flew rapidly towards Holmes Shadow Wizard who was attacking Mao Li Ran again.

"What..." The Shadow Mage didn't have time to react before being hit by the football.

After all, almost all of his energy was spent on manipulating Ran Mouri and being vigilant against the possibility of Taichi's sudden attack.

He didn't even notice that a speeding football was flying towards him.

I didn't expect Taiyi to be so suspicious, so suspicious that he didn't even want to intercept a football for him.

Obviously, he easily accepted the five personalities of Mordred, Minamoto no Raikou, Jeanne d'Arc, Achilles and Himiko... As expected, the shock of their independent appearance in the real world without his involvement was too great, so he simply didn't dare to believe himself.

In addition, the invitation to London this time came from Shadow Mage.

Being a little suspicious... seems normal?

The Shadow Mage, who had not considered these things at first, suddenly thought of them when he was hit by the football.

It turns out that the human layout is not something that a half-baked person like him can easily learn and properly use.

However, Shadow Mage remembered that humans seemed to have another strategy that was most easily accepted, which was called... the strategy of inflicting pain on one's self!

Otherwise, why not try it?

"Ran! Ah, no, Sister Ran!" Edogawa Conan hurriedly ran towards Mouri Ran.

But when he saw the dagger in Mao Lilan's hand, his steps gradually slowed down and he stopped beside Taichi.

"..." Looking at Mao Lilan in a somewhat silent manner, whose eyes were full of vigilance and strange hostility, Edogawa Conan's lips trembled slightly, "Sister Ran, do you still remember me? I am Conan."

no response.

There was no change in the expression on Mao Lilan's face.

Edogawa Conan's hands and feet began to tremble unconsciously.

"Why did Ran become like this?" Conan Edogawa turned his head and asked Taichi with fear and despair in his eyes.

"Let the culprit you kicked away explain this question." Taiyi stared at the motionless Shadow Mage lying on the ground and said, "Are you still going to continue acting, Shadow Mage?"

"...How strange." The Shadow Mage's hands and feet moved, and he slowly floated from the ground to the air. Then he turned around and looked at Taiyi, "I should have locked all my energy fluctuations, so why can you still find out that it's me?"

"The layout is too sloppy. It looks like it was made on the spur of the moment and is full of loopholes," Taiyi replied.

"Hmm - as expected, I still can't understand your human thought process." Shadow Mage tilted his head and sighed with some regret.

"What did you do to Ms. Mouri Ran over there? Can you answer our questions?" Taichi asked, staring at the Shadow Mage.

"Is it hypnosis? Or brainwashing?"

"Neither of them." Shadow Mage suddenly grinned, "It's a cognitive overwrite."

"What do you think, if a temple is erected in the subconscious of this human being, who will be the master of the temple? Mao Lilan? Or Jack the Ripper?"

Taiyi's face suddenly turned gloomy.

Aix immediately began to try to invade Mao Lilan's existing palace.

[“The Different World Navigation App has responded! A palace has been erected in Mao Lilan’s consciousness!” Aix reminded, “I will immediately try and test the keywords for invading the palace!”]

"Shadow Mage, what is your purpose?" Taichi grabbed Edogawa Conan, who had realized the meaning of 'cognitive overwrite' and was frantically trying to pounce on him to die, and stared at the Shadow Mage and questioned him.

"It's meaningless now." The smile on Shadow Mage's face immediately disappeared. "Originally, I was planning to disguise myself as one of your powers, lurking beside you and waiting for an opportunity to act, but judging from my current performance, I'm afraid this plan has no chance of being realized."

Show weakness to the enemy?

Taichi doesn't think that Shadow Mage will give up this plan.

At most, he would try again one day in the future when he felt he was 90 percent sure of success.

"By the way, I also want to see what the reaction would be if you, at my instigation, personally destroyed a person I controlled." Shadow Mage shook his head with some regret, "But now it seems unrealistic."

"You were too merciful." The Shadow Mage sighed, "Otherwise, with your ability, you would have killed this human long ago."

Next to him, Conan Edogawa trembled slightly.

The Shadow Mage is trying to sow discord between him and Taichi.

"Stop what you are doing to Mao Li Ran, and I can let you go this time." Taiyi stared at the Shadow Mage and put forward a condition.

"Haha, it's just a clone, do you think I care?" The Shadow Mage laughed sarcastically.

"Destroy it if you want. Anyway, this clone has no meaning to exist anymore."

"Compared to that, I'd rather see what expression you'll show when you're at a loss about what to do about this human girl." A wicked smile appeared on the face of the Shadow Mage. "I remind you again that she is no longer a human girl named Mao Lilan, but a ghost descendant named 'Jack the Ripper'."

"As long as she is still here, Jack the Ripper's mission of killing will never end."

"Well, I will leave here first. Please let me enjoy this grand show, hero of mankind!"

After saying this, the Shadow Mage controlled the clone and chose to self-destruct.

When Taichi noticed the energy riot, he used the meteor run method to carry Conan Edogawa and Maori Jack the Ripper and escape from the range of the explosion.

Then after landing, he instantly widened the distance between himself, Conan Edogawa, and Muri Jack the Ripper Ran.

Because she was slashing at me with the dagger again.

"Do you have any way to restore Ran to her original state?" Conan Edogawa, who had suffered a great blow today, forced himself to look at Taichi and asked.

Chapter 151: Sera Masumi expresses envy

"… Shinichi! Great, you're finally awake."

When Edogawa Conan opened his eyes, what he saw was Dr. Agasa's face, which was sweating with excitement.

"Where is this... why am I... wait! Ran!" After coming to his senses, Edogawa Conan suddenly sat up and shouted in surprise.

Since Professor Agasa called him by his real name, it meant that there were no outsiders here, so Conan did not feel afraid to call him.

"Is Xiaolan here?" Dr. Agasa quickly grabbed Conan's shoulder and explained, "But when I found this place based on the text message sent to me, you were the only one here, leaning against the wall and sleeping."

"What on earth happened, Shinichi?" Dr. Agasa glanced uneasily at the blocked alley across the street behind him.

"That alley was bombed to such an extent that it was horrible to look at. If I hadn't arrived before the police officer, you wouldn't have woken up here. Instead, you would have woken up as a suspect in Scotland Yard."

"Damn, that guy took Xiaolan away!" Although he couldn't remember how he fell into a coma, Conan still remembered his last question.

But the other party did not answer.

Taking out his cell phone, Edogawa Conan prepared to call the other party back to find out what was going on.

However, no matter how he searched, he could not find that person's contact information.

There was only one sentence left in the memo of the mobile phone notebook.

"What a joke!" Edogawa Conan kicked the trash can next to him in frustration.

He could tolerate bowing to others for Mao Lilan, but he could not tolerate losing all information about Mao Lilan at such a critical moment.

"Shinichi, calm down!" Dr. Agasa quickly pulled Conan Edogawa in another direction.

Some passers-by were startled by the noise and looked over here.

"Follow them, cough cough cough." In the back seat of a black Aston Martin parked on the side of the road not far away, Mary Akai glanced at the figures of the old man and the young man hurriedly leaving, and gave orders to the driver.

The car started slowly.

Mary Akai is not far from Scotland Yard.

After she ran out of Scotland Yard, she stopped moving temporarily because someone dodged her. After the thick fog dissipated, she called a car to patrol the surrounding area.

When the explosion happened, she happened to be just two blocks away, so when she rushed over, Edogawa Conan was still lying in the alley across the street.

She thought that the child might have seen the entire explosion, so she decided to wait here and see who would show up.

As a result, a fat old man who was suspected to be his family member appeared.
