I founded Tantric Buddhism in London

Chapter 39 It sounds like a Thousand Layer Cake

"Watson, let's go to Kate and Hero Co., Ltd."

"The Order of the Flashing Blade evacuated so quickly, it's impossible not to leave any traces. I don't believe in the talents of the agents of the Anti-Suppression Bureau. They may be very good at dealing with sudden mysterious phenomena, but in terms of investigation and reasoning..."

The female detective shook her head, "I don't believe in their detective skills."

The two of them arrived at a dilapidated old factory located in a remote river bend.

The abandoned Kate and Hero Co., Ltd., in Watson's eyes, was nothing more than a decaying empty shell beside a putrid river.

The ruins were crumbling in the wind, with shocking cracks and disintegrated walls everywhere.

The blackened beams creaked like the exposed broken bones of an abandoned factory building.

It looked so fragile and broken that it seemed like a loud roar could destroy the rest of it.

The rotten smell of the river flowed in from the exposed holes in all directions along with the wind. The remains of industrial machines covered with thick dust that even the scavengers were too lazy to move were scattered around the site, and broken wooden rafters were crawling on. A fat rat.

As soon as the female detective and her assistant stepped into this place, they were so startled that the crows that had nested here began to croak and fly away. The rats that were walking were also disturbed by the commotion and fled in all directions.

Charlotte Holmes' expression became darker and her brows furrowed harder.

Obviously when he left early this morning, this place was still the secret headquarters of the Order of the Flashing Blade, and the ruins-like site was repaired and perfected for people to live in and engage in ulterior activities.

How come not long after this place has returned to its former dilapidation, it seems like time is going back!

"It hasn't been like this for a few hours..."

Watson has never seen the original appearance of this place, but he has already guessed that the Flashing Blade Order must have used some special means to restore this factory to its ruins.

Nowadays, the dust layer inside the factory building was covered with messy shoe prints. After a quick glance, he found that these footprints were all from the same style of standard military boots. They seemed to be left by the anti-suppression force.

But those dilapidated and broken machines were also covered with a layer of dust, which actually surprised Watson.

If it is really like what Holmes said, this place was still the headquarters of a secret cult in the early morning. The secret cultists quickly moved the supplies and evacuated after receiving the news from William McConaughey...

He could roughly understand how it was done, but he still had to restore the site to its original state as a ruin afterwards, and fake traces of being neglected for a long time?

"How on earth did they do it?"

"Is it the mysterious power of forbidden knowledge?"

Watson looked surprised and confused on the surface, but in fact he had already guessed the reason - it seems that there may be deceivers who practice the secret transmission of the moth in the Order of the Flashing Blade, so they can create this almost flawless trap. on site.

Moreover, the other party's mastery of the secret teaching of the moth is very likely to be much deeper than his own. Is it the second level or the third level?

"It's very possible..." Charlotte actually had not seen similar records in the information of the Anti-Suppression Bureau, but she was not discouraged and said with high spirits: "I want to see how powerful their evil skills are. , can it really cover up all traces!”

"Then let's split up. You may be familiar with this place after having been under surveillance for so many days. You search inside, and I'll go outside to see if I can find any traces of their evacuation."

"Um."

Charlotte agreed casually and was immersed in the concentration of no one else. She lay on the ground like an animal, looking towards the bottom of the abandoned industrial machines, only to see that the bottom was also covered with thick dust.

Watson stepped over the huge gap in the wall. Unexpectedly, even the ruins of bricks and stones were covered with a layer of dust, which made him even more curious. After practicing Mo Mi to a later stage, he could still have such interesting things. Special ability?

If Holmes is good at using deductive reasoning to solve cases, then Watson may be more emotionally involved in on-site reasoning. He is more accustomed to putting himself in the situation and imagining, if this case is executed by himself, how should he operate? Is there a way to do better than what we are doing now?

He assumed he was one of the Order of the Flashing Blade.

After receiving the news from the leader, my first reaction should be to inform other church members... At this time, it may cause a slight panic. If there is not a mysterious power that can cover up traces in this world, then this link will be very difficult. It is possible that some church members made mistakes while busy and left some traces.

After receiving the news that the sect leaders requested to retreat, the Order will inevitably take quick action to erase traces of their past existence. Judging from the current scene in the abandoned factory, the Flash Blade Order has done a good job. It can be said that all traces have been covered up.

It proves that they have probably already envisioned the occurrence of such an emergency internally, and have prepared corresponding emergency execution plans, and may even have gone through several drills... Only then can they be able to do so quickly and without leaving any traces. Evacuate.

But the question is, how did the Flashing Blade Order quickly escape from this place with a large amount of supplies after eliminating traces and restoring the scene?

Watson looked at the rough road surrounding the factory. There were broken bricks and rocks of various sizes everywhere, which was completely unsuitable for carriages to carry goods.

He looked up at the hazy sky, and suddenly a bold idea came to his mind, but then he shook his head mockingly... Impossible. If the Order of the Flashing Blade had mastered the ability to fly, the city of London would have been in chaos long ago, even if it was The airship technology is also extremely shocking.

Watson focused on the stinky river flowing slowly in front of him. The soil near the river was moist and soft, but there were no traces of walking on it. The surface of the soil was covered with a layer of rotten grease.

He walked along the river embankment, trying to find useful clues.

The intuitive moth seemed to have been severely injured by William and could no longer provide sudden flashes of inspiration.

Watson could only rely on his own observation ability. He looked around at the simple embankments composed of industrial garbage, wooden piles, gravel and other debris on both sides of the river bend. The parts near the river were corroded by the rising tides of sewage day and night. A layer of black slippery moss appeared.

If the Order of the Flashing Blade prepares a ship to be docked on this shore in advance, it should use some heavy object to act as a boat pile/rock for the mooring rope.

This object must first be strong enough, and the long-term tying of the cable will inevitably leave a trace like a horizontal belt.

His eyes quickly scanned the area before him...but he still seemed to find nothing.

Until he saw the gravel piled up into a slightly flat hill-like shape, which was also stained with a layer of black color rendered by the turbid river.

But when Watson looked at it, he always felt that there was an abrupt and strange feeling that was incompatible with the surroundings, as if these gravels should not exist here.

He carefully stepped onto the slippery and crude river embankment and stepped on these smooth river stones. He suddenly felt a familiar feeling of déjà vu, as if he had felt a similar stepping feeling somewhere before.

After Watson thought for a moment, he captured the familiar source in his mind - the layer of moss like wool and velvet in the Mansu Woodland!

"As expected, the power of secret transmission was used to cover up the traces."

Watson chuckled to himself, and used his cane to push aside layers of gravel, and saw a short log pile buried underneath that was almost submerged in the ground.

The top of the dark wooden pile is broken like a canine tooth, showing a fresh wood white color. It can be seen at a glance that it was broken violently recently.

"That's right, these are the wooden piles used by the Order of the Flashing Blade to tie their boats. They use the waterway!"

Watson looked at the crooked, foul-smelling river and thought to himself: "Should we go down the river or upstream?"

"It is logical to infer that the Flash Blade Order is in a hurry and should choose a faster way to escape downstream along the river."

"But this is common sense. With William McConaughey's wisdom, he should have thought of this level, and thought that the following detectives would guess that they escaped downstream..."

Watson raised his head at the entrance of the river bend, "Then, they are most likely retreating in the opposite direction and escaping upstream!"

"No, no, if William thinks about this level again and guesses that the detective will use reverse thinking to speculate, then it is very likely that he will escape downstream..."

Just as Watson was immersed in the psychological game one after another with William McConaughey, the female detective's clear shouts penetrated the hollow of the factory building and drifted towards the river bend.

"Watson!"

"I found a suspicious place and I need your help!"
