Why did Sherlock Holmes appear in the ruins of Atlas Court, and why he seemed to have known that Chen Ling and others would come here and waited here... These were all the same as he led the way. One explained.

According to what he said, he had actually been paying attention to Chaldea's affairs for a long time, and had confirmed their process of saving humanity along the way.

Among them, when he was in London at the fourth singular point, he came to this singular point before Ritsuka and the others intervened and left clues for them to collect information.

According to him, a detective like himself would never miss such a huge murder.

"The largest and most heinous murder case targeting all primates, carried out through inhumane incineration."

According to Holmes, this is what the Magic King wanted to do, and it is almost a perfect crime that has been achieved.

No one could stop him, and it was over before anyone even realized he had done it.

Except for Chaldea, which temporarily remains due to its own unique characteristics, the future of pan-human history has been erased by him.

Now all that's left are some insignificant finishing touches. Essentially, Chaldea's existence is not taken seriously by him at all.

In fact, in the singularity so far, he could have eliminated Ritsuka and his group at any time, but he just didn't do it for various reasons.

That is to say, the existence of Chen Ling made the Magic King feel troublesome and took the initiative several times. However, after several failures, he no longer wasted time and energy to continue doing so. Instead, he focused on his own affairs and accelerated human reasoning. The process of burning.

"However, apart from Chen Ling who is the savior, one of you from Chaldea is also involved, but let's not mention it for now."

"Ok?"

Holmes' subtle statement made Ritsuka and Mashu tilt their heads in confusion.And because he was walking in front, the ladies who could only see the back of his head couldn't figure it out through his expression.

But since he is the best detective in the world, he must have perfect expression control, so it would be useless even if he saw it.

However, only Lixiang and Ma Xiu were confused. Chen Ling and Da Vinci's expressions remained unchanged, completely affected by such words.

After all, Chen Ling and Da Vinci are both people who know some things. The former probably knows everything, and the latter knows part of the information. This was explained to her personally by someone.

"Do they both know something about the inside story? ...But why, as the savior of Leonardo da Vinci, did he not take any action even though he knew about it? Or has he seen through many things?"

Holmes seemed to have eyes behind his back, and he knew every move made by Chaldea and the others.

"I haven't investigated the situation clearly yet, but he knows so much? Is it possible that he can really observe the situation in other worlds?"

"No, if he can really be like this, he shouldn't be so indifferent when he sees me."

"He knows so much. He should only know it through some special methods. He should not be able to observe other worlds. However, no matter what, I have to do some guidance first and deal with that person first. Otherwise, this world There’s no way to get in…”

Chapter 236: Don’t trust Chaldea? No, you don’t trust someone

In short, the crime of incineration has been completed.

In fact, this is indeed the case. After all, in the normal timeline of Chaldea, the only place left in the world over there is the Antarctic, and all other places have been burned.

To put it bluntly, the human body incineration step has been completed, or it is 99% completed, and only the remaining 1% is somewhat insignificant.However, among this 1% there are organizations like Chaldea.

Nowadays, Chaldea's so-called saving of human nature is actually an act of dealing with it after the fact. Because of the special nature of human incineration, as long as Chaldea defeats the mastermind before the human nature is completely burned, they can reverse history. Change the past and successfully save humanity.

In this situation, although the heroic spirits on the guardian side of Humanity arrived a little late, they still appeared one after another to save Humanity together with Chaldea.

This is also true of Sherlock Holmes (as he calls himself).

Although detectives have been ridiculed as a profession that only deals with things after the fact, but in this situation, if the detective himself is burned as a member of the primate family, there will be no time to solve the case.

Therefore, if you want to solve the case, you must go back to the past, which means burning a few unique points at the base of human psychology.Ritsuka and the others' Chaldea are equivalent to detectives who can reverse time and truly prevent crimes.

However, although it was important to prevent the intoxication, Holmes said that what he cared about most was his purpose after that.

"The real name of the criminal who committed human incineration, the King of Magic, is - ah, by the way, Ms. Leonardo, are the communications with Chaldea still connected?"

"No, not really. This Atlas Academy seems to be a hidden singularity in the singularity, which is very strange. But because of this, the time and space distortion is out of sync with the outside world, and even I can't connect to it. Where’s Chaldea?”

Although he didn't quite understand why the other party asked this question, Da Vinci still answered Holmes with an elegant smile.

Hearing this satisfactory answer, Holmes smiled and nodded, and then continued.

"The real name of the Magic King is "Solomon". The most famous and important king in the Old Testament of the Bible, the son of King David, the ancestor of magic who used 72 demons. With his methods, if you want to achieve human reason and burn this It is indeed possible to do this kind of thing - but what I want to know more is his purpose, which is the 'Whydunit'."

'Whydunit', that is - why.

This is a term commonly used in mystery novels and is also an essential key in reasoning thinking.Hearing this term come from Holmes's mouth, Matthew immediately clasped his hands in gratitude with a look of fascination on his face.

Simply put, it's 'for what'.

Matthew, we have been close to Chen Ling for so long just now, and now you are acting like this all of a sudden, Chen Ling will say unhappy - Ritsuka whispered in Matthew's ear like a mischievous, The child's expression immediately became even more explosive.

Fortunately, when Ma Xiu nervously turned his head to look at Chen Ling, he found that Chen Ling had not noticed her situation. Instead, he was frowning as if he was thinking about something.

Fortunately, senior Chen Ling didn't notice... No, I'd better pay attention.

Mashu thought secretly, even she understood this truth.

However, what is senior Chen Ling thinking?Thinking about Mr. Holmes's words?

Matthew didn't know why, but in fact, Chen Ling was not thinking about Holmes' words.

At this time, Chen Ling was discussing something with Atila.

"Attila, do you see the problem?"

"No, he is undoubtedly a very normal heroic spirit. I don't know if he is the real Sherlock Holmes, but he is indeed a very normal heroic spirit."

"Since he is a normal heroic spirit, why do I feel something is wrong?"

"I don't know, I'm not omnipotent."

"That's all, I'll find a chance to test it out."

Yes, although Chen Ling previously thought that he might have some bad feelings towards Holmes just because of some prejudices, how could he really not care at all if he was so cautious?Although he wouldn't say what he was specifically targeting, at least he would investigate and test it secretly, otherwise he wouldn't be able to rest assured.

Well, although Chen Ling already has a tendency to suffer from paranoia, he is different from the Seven Sins in the past. He will not exude hostility towards everything, and if he doesn't find anything wrong, he won't think too much. It can be considered to be within the scope of special caution.

Not mentioning that Chen Ling was currently thinking about the situation of testing and investigation, the great detective walking at the front continued:

"Unlike the outside world, when it comes to magic-related events in the other world, 'Howdunit' and 'Whodunit' are meaningless. There is no use of magic in detective stories that exclude the occult. A person, and neither of these two points is a problem for a magician. But only the 'motivation' can be discovered... Why did the Magic King who committed the biggest and most heinous crime in human history want to do this? Doing this, and what do you want to do after it is successfully implemented, I have been investigating these.”

"I see, then the reason why you came to Atlas Academy is the same as ours in Chaldea, to find the terminal that records all the information on the world - the three-pointed Hermes, the spiritual calculator, to search for information? ?”

"As expected of Ms. Da Vinci, much faster than Mr. Watson."

Holmes turned his face slightly, revealing the charming smile that reminded him of an elegant fox as always.

Although they acted together because of Holmes's one-sided statement, in fact, all these were his one-sided words, and it was too early to say that he was an ally of Chaldea.

No, it would be better to say that he was never an ally of Chaldea in the first place.From the moment he asked Da Vinci "whether he maintains communication with Chaldea," it was clear that he did not trust Chaldea.

Of course, this is actually a characteristic of famous detectives. Before the truth is clear, they will not believe or doubt any party, even Chaldea, who saves humanity.

The reason why he appeared in front of them now was because he must have planned to test Chen Ling and some others.

Li Xiang and Ma Xiu didn't seem to care about this. They probably didn't hear it, or maybe they heard it but left the matter to Chen Ling and Da Vinci to judge.

As for Da Vinci and Chen Ling, the former actually doesn't care much about this. After all, strictly speaking, the reason why she stayed in Chaldea was not because Chaldea wanted to save people, but because of a certain people.As for Chen Ling, he understood the situation and didn't intend to say anything more, and he was more concerned about the feeling that something was wrong with Holmes.

Therefore, it was clear that the four people present except Holmes were important personnel in Chaldea, but no one refuted Holmes' words of distrust in Chaldea.

When Holmes saw this, he turned to look at the four of them with some surprise.

Lixiang and Mashu blinked, not knowing why the other stopped. Chen Ling was still thinking about the matter and ignored it, but he also observed Holmes a little.Only Da Vinci, after thinking for a while, finally spoke with a smile.

"I probably understand what you mean. In fact, you don't completely distrust Chaldea, otherwise you wouldn't appear in front of us, even for testing. So, in fact, it's not Chaldea you don't trust. , but someone from Chaldea, right?”

"Let me guess, the one you don't trust is actually Roman, right?"

As soon as this remark came out, the audience fell silent.

Chapter 237 It’s us, Chaldea, who are destroying human principles?

Everyone present fell silent and stopped because of Da Vinci's straightforward words.

Chen Ling seemed to have reacted at this moment, no longer thinking about whether there was something or not, but looking at Holmes and Da Vinci indifferently.

At this moment, Holmes and Chen Ling both looked indifferent, Li Xiang and Mashu looked confused, and Da Vinci had a smile on his face.

The five people have three expressions, but they probably all have different thoughts in their hearts.

In the end, it was Holmes who spoke first to break the silence.

"Yes, I didn't want to say anything that would offend you, but as a detective, I must look at all issues from a neutral and rational perspective. And now that Ms. Leonardo has spoken out what is in my heart If you doubt it, then I’ll just confess it frankly.”

"Yes, I don't doubt that I don't trust Chaldea, I just don't trust the man named 'Romani Achiman'."

As soon as these words came out, Ritsuka and Mashu looked at Holmes with confusion, suspicion, and even hostility.

Yes, because this suspicion of Holmes will not only make Ritsuka and Mashu hostile, but also any Chaldean employee who hears this will probably do so. (Both Chen Ling and Da Vinci are not employees of Chaldea in essence)

Romani Achiman - Everyone affectionately calls him 'Doctor Roman', but although many people still call him doctor, he is actually the acting director and basically the supreme leader of Chaldea. .Of course, such Roman must be the core of Chaldea's core.

Although Roman looked very useless, that was all it looked like.When Ritsuka and others entered the singularity, as logistical support, Roman arranged almost everything in place.When Ritsuka did not enter the singularity, he had to coordinate all matters in Chaldea and find the next singularity.Such a character is undoubtedly one of the pillars of Chaldea.

Moreover, what is different from others is that Roman is a mortal, and he is indeed a mortal now. Apart from a ring that can only be used at critical moments, he is a complete mortal.But precisely because of him, a mortal who has been working hard, Chaldea was able to quickly regroup after the great collapse and maintain operations until now.

It must be mentioned that when Da Vinci decided to enter the sixth singularity with Ritsuka Chenrei and others, Roman strongly opposed it and said that without Da Vinci-chan, Chaldea would never be normal. operation.

But Da Vinci replied that the person who really supported Chaldea was not himself as a servant, but Roman.

Even the second-in-command Leonardo da Vinci claimed this, not to mention the others in Chaldea.

Doctor Roman is undoubtedly their pillar of Chaldea.

Precisely because he is different from Da Vinci, Chen Ling and others, he is neither a heroic spirit nor a genius, nor is he the Master Tachibana who is fighting on the front line. He is just a complete "mortal", so his value is particularly precious.

Therefore, when Holmes bluntly stated that he suspected Roman, not to mention Ritsuka, even Matthew, who seemed to admire Holmes just now, looked at him with hostility.

Sure enough, Chaldea trusted Romani Aqiman.However, according to my investigation, he does have a problem, and it is probably related to the intoxication. Only by explaining clearly can we gain the trust of Chen Ling and the others, and only after the investigation is clear can we truly solve the problem.

Today's Holmes is indeed as Chen Ling feels something is wrong, but his current purpose is actually very simple, that is to help Chaldea solve the crisis of human incineration.He really meant this.

"Gentlemen, as a famous detective, I will not tell some objectionable facts if I don't have some evidence."

With that said, Holmes continued to walk forward.

"Of course, in order to further confirm some of my conjectures and evidence, and to add persuasiveness, I plan to ask about this soul calculator that stores countless data. I believe that you should be more trustworthy than me when we first met. The answer given by the three-pointed Hermes, right?”

This statement is reasonable. Although Holmes is a famous detective, he is still the person they met for the first time. No matter how famous the detective is, it is impossible for him to completely believe some of his words.

But the three-pointed Hermes is different. This thing is an existence recognized by Chen Ling and Da Vinci. They even came here to find this thing and use it to find Morgan's whereabouts.

The two leaders, Chen Ling and Da Vinci, both trusted this thing, and Ritsuka and Mashu naturally followed suit.

Therefore, after Holmes said this, Li Xiang and Mashu looked at each other, then looked at Chen Ling and Da Vinci. After the latter two nodded, Chaldea and the other four people followed Holmes forward again. .

Unconsciously, after walking a long distance in the dark underground passage, a room with an atmosphere that was incompatible with the surroundings opened in front of the group.

Countless technological cubes are piled up into walls, and there is a large flat circular opening in the sky, which incredibly reflects the blue sky and white clouds.

Of course it's impossible to see the blue sky so deep underground.What's more, there is a sandstorm outside with yellow sand blocking out the sun, and there is no such good weather at all.

So this is not the real sky, but it is real and not like a projection or any other illusion.So I'm afraid this is indeed true - but it's not the sky of this world, but somewhere else.

In short, Holmes did not look at this magnificent scenery, but went straight to the huge device in the room that was very similar to Chaldea - it was the spirit calculator that Chaldea also had.

"I forgot to tell Ritsuka Mash and you two before that the one in Chaldea is the replica that I asked Atlas-in for. Mari-chan's father used a contract from Atlas-in for this. However, even though it is a replica, its ability is far inferior to that of the authentic three-pointed Hermes."

Seeing the curious and confused expressions of Ritsuka and Mashu, DaVinci-chan continued to explain with a smile.

On the other side, Holmes, who had come into contact with the spirit calculator, had a stern expression on his face, his handsome face showed amazing courage, and he shouted loudly.

"Hermes, bird that flies to the underworld! Answer my question! An event that has been erased from all records, in the Holy Grail War in Japan in 2004 in 'this world' - Marisbili ·Animusfia, tell me what kind of participation trajectory you have!”

The three-pointed Hermes flashed for a while, and then answered Holmes' question.

——Marisbili Animusfia used a special method to summon the legendary Magic King Solomon in order to win the final victory.

As soon as these words came out, the whole audience fell into silence again.

Was the Magic King Solomon summoned by Chaldea?So, the one who destroys human principles is actually Chaldea? ? ?

Chapter 238 You said Dr. Roman is Solomon?

The three-pointed Hermes does not answer aloud. It is essentially a magic device. Therefore, when it answers Sherlock Holmes, it is neither an intelligent voice reply nor a real-life text response. Instead, it directly displays the video and adds it. Text explanation.

And now, what is displayed in front of everyone is the scene where the former director of Chaldea successfully summoned Solomon under the famous bridge in Fuyuki City, and it was accompanied by the words "Maris Billy Animusfia in order to obtain The final victory was achieved by using a special method to summon the legendary Magic King-Solomon.

No one would mistake the Magic King. After all, he left a very deep impression on Ritsuka and others during the Fourth Singularity.But now, they have indeed seen that the former director of Chaldea seemed to have used some special methods to successfully summon the Magic King Solomon.

Although this video only shows the beginning of the title sequence, after all, according to Holmes' question, what he wants to know is the 2004 Holy Grail War in Japan that took place in the Chaldean world - Marisbili Animusfia All tracks involved.
