[Conan] I just want to be a magician quietly

Minerva Glass is worthy of being the queen of grass. After the match dragged to the tiebreak, the scene seemed evenly matched and the battle situation was fierce, but in fact, the opponent was completely led by her.

Therefore, she could even spare some of her attention to the audience, and after noticing that Mao Lilan and Kudo Shinichi successfully controlled a highly dangerous bomber, she hit a high lob and completely killed the game that had no suspense.

However, at this moment, few people in the huge Wimbledon Stadium cared about the result of the game.

Although under Wakaki Ryo's deliberate control, the person in the VIP room who was most seriously injured had a long cut on his arm, and the rest were at most frightened and scratched.

But how long has it been since a member of the royal family was assassinated?

Even though the plot has been distorted beyond recognition by Wakaki Ryo, Kudo Shinichi's aura of the protagonist is still shining.

With the credit of catching Hades and the recommendation of Lady Diana, he successfully joined the follow-up investigation of the incident.

In the interrogation room

Kudo Shinichi looked at Hades who was tied up tightly, and kept thinking about what had happened to Hades's words "He cheated on me" that he blurted out on the court before.

The collapse of the dome at Wimbledon Stadium was obviously attributed to Hades by Scotland Yard. Before Shinichi and Xiaolan arrived, the police officers in London must have given him a warm welcome ceremony, so that now the bomber with the same name as Pluto collapsed on the interrogation chair with a pale face.

However, it may be that the physical pain temporarily overwhelmed the mental collapse, and Hades now looks more normal than when he was on the court.

"Your original plan was to hide the bomb in the doll you gave to Mrs. Glass, and detonate the explosives to kill her the moment the game ended. But from the results, the doll with the explosives was obviously replaced by someone.

So you kept repeating 'he cheated you' on the court. Is this person your accomplice?"

Hades' bloodshot eyes looked at Kudo Shinichi who was sitting opposite him, and a nervous smile appeared on his face.

"Accomplice? No, I don't know the man who tried to imitate Moriarty at all. I just want to kill him, kill him in the most cruel way!"

Trying to imitate Professor Moriarty?

Kudo Shinichi jumped, and for some reason, a familiar figure flashed subconsciously in his mind.

"This person who cheated you..."

Kudo Shinichi tried to get more information from Hades, but Hades did not answer his questions, but kept muttering "kill him" and so on.

Kudo Shinichi shut up, thought for a moment, took out a white knight doll from his pocket, and held the letter T on the knight's neck in front of Hades.

When he was busy solving the puzzle of Hades' crime trailer, he always felt that the style of the knight doll was wrong.

Looking at the puzzle props corresponding to other puzzles on the puzzle, they were either drain covers or dirty wind chimes, and the slightly better ones were pink letter paper wrapped in waterproof plastic film.

The main feature was a simple one.

Only this little doll was exquisitely made and made of exquisite materials. It could be sold for tens of pounds in a boutique.

His intuition told him that there must be something wrong here, so Kudo Shinichi carried this pure white knight doll with him.

"What is this?"

Hades frowned and looked at the white knight doll. The expression on his face could be simply explained as unfamiliar and unseen.

Kudo Shinichi frowned slightly, and the other party's expression did not seem to be acting.

In other words, his initial intuition was correct. This knight doll, whose style was obviously inconsistent with other props, was indeed not prepared by Hades himself.

At this time, Hades seemed to suddenly understand something, and subconsciously murmured softly: "When I saw the Lamb open the first of the seven seals, I heard one of the four living creatures say with a voice like thunder, 'Come.'

I looked, and behold, a white horse, and its rider had a bow. And a crown was given to him..."

"I like the idea of ​​the Apocalypse, so this is what it means... I understand, so this is what it means!"

Hades stared at the exquisite doll held in Shinichi Kudo's hand, and then suddenly turned his head and stared at a guard in the interrogation room who couldn't help scratching his arm, and his face once again showed a twisted and hideous expression.

"He's crazier than me. Haha, compared to him, I'm just normal!"

Hades rushed forward towards Kudo Shinichi, pulling the iron chain on the interrogation chair, as if he wanted to strangle Kudo Shinichi's neck.

The guard immediately stepped forward, roughly suppressed Hades, and swung two batons at his abdomen, then half-dragged Hades, who suddenly began to laugh wildly, out of the interrogation room.

"The plague has spread, and the Apocalypse is about to begin, hahahahahahahahaha..."

Hades' voice and laughter slowly disappeared, but Kudo Shinichi's face was as gloomy as water.

Of course he knew what Hades had just muttered.

That passage came from the last chapter of the New Testament, "The Apocalypse of John", which describes that when the world ends and all mankind is judged, the Lamb will unseal the seventh seal of the book and summon the knights riding four horses, white, red, black, and green, to bring war, famine, plague, and death to the humans who are accepting the final judgment.

That is the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse that everyone knows.

In many film and television works, the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse are directly equated with the end of the world.

Kudo Shinichi recalled the people he saw near the hospital today. People of different genders and ages showed the same pathological symptoms. It seemed that it was not an exaggeration to say that it was a plague.

Wait!

Kudo Shinichi stood up suddenly, and suddenly remembered clearly in his mind the several photos that fell out of the other party's file bag when he bumped into the reporter named John.

There seemed to be several other knights on it!

--------------

Ruo Mu Liang touched his chin and watched Kudo Shinichi running all the way through the live broadcast room. He successfully found a reporter with a worrying hairline and got all the photos from him.

The Son of the World is worthy of being the Son of the World. He lost so many plots by the butterfly, and the will of the world can still send a tool man John to fill in the missing information for him.

This is good, so that he doesn't have to take time to open a vest and go out to give Kudo Shinichi a little hint.

When he asked Kuroba Kaito to send the challenge letter, he was playing a trick.

The challenge letter was carefully pasted by Douzi next to the treasure of the museum, while the small statue was thrown in a corner next to it. It didn't look like a souvenir sent with the challenge letter, but rather like a small toy accidentally left in the museum by a careless tourist.

In order to expand his influence, Kuroba Kaito later sent only copies of the challenge letter to major print media and TV stations, but not a small statue of a beautifully crafted knight.

Because the museum didn't pay much attention to it and the information gap between major media, although the challenge letter incident was reported in the news, the existence of the knight statue was not mentioned in the report.

The next day, although the museum received a second challenge letter with the knight statue attached, because nothing happened the day before, the person in charge of the museum directly characterized the incident as a clown who wanted to be famous and was crazy about sensationalism, and didn't pay much follow-up attention at all.

And a reporter who had been squatting in the museum for several days happened to take pictures of all the knight dolls.

Tsk tsk tsk, as expected, when the protagonist wants to solve the case, the key clues are lined up to be delivered to his face.

Wakagi Ryo glanced at the rapidly increasing emotional value on the panel with a smile, and stood up and stretched.

Come on, detective, the fun is just about to begin~
