Pastor's Tantra

When Andre Watson regained consciousness, he noticed a little person standing beside him with his hands behind his back, staring at him.

The child was holding a cane in a decent manner, with a very serious face, and looked very similar.

"ah……"

Detective Watson made a hoarse voice and managed to calm down.

But he was still trembling all over at this moment, and it took him a while to regain his ability to speak.

The cold air was still soaked in his body, and the fear still remained in Watson's eyes: "What on earth is going on... Why is there a Wild Hunt here?"

"Maybe it's just bad luck that happened to you."

The child asked coldly: "What are you doing here?"

"oh……"

Watson barely struggled and sat up from the ground. Haina kindly helped out at the side - but at this moment, he saw the gryphon with large white feathers mixed in beside Haina, and his movements were momentarily stuck.

For a moment, little Sherlock narrowed his eyes.

"Thank you, this... Mr. Inspector?"

Watson asked tentatively.

Haina shook her head: "I am not the inspector yet. You can call me Miss Haina first - this is Arthur Conan Doyle."

"Hello, kind ladies and gentlemen. Thank you very much for saving me."

Watson turned blue and his lips turned white.

But Haina noticed that his recovery speed was quite fast... After he woke up, his speech became fluent after just a few breaths, and his complexion and mental state also improved at a speed visible to the naked eye: " My name is Andre Watson and I'm a detective.

"Oh, hello, Watson..."

Haina had just finished speaking when little Sherlock suddenly raised his voice and interrupted her:

"——So, Detective Watson," he raised his voice, "may I ask why you would like to make a special trip to such a remote small town?"

Watson hesitated for a moment before realizing that the person leading the conversation was actually this child.

Maybe he wasn't a kid at all.

...Maybe he is a dwarf?

Such strange thoughts suddenly appeared in Watson's mind, and he subconsciously began to think quickly.

——The guy named Haina can get the pure-blooded griffin in its juvenile stage, which means that she has at least touched the edge of the fourth energy level. She just said that she was not an inspector yet, but she did not explain that she was not from the inspection bureau... and her posture looked quite casual, which meant that she probably did not come from the military system.

If you are not from the military system, you will enter the arbitration hall when you reach the fourth level. At that time, you can be Avalon's top combat power and talent reserve and receive the Queen's armor award, become a knight and enter the Round Table Hall.

There is no doubt that that is the pinnacle of power that ordinary people can reach.

But she respected that child very much——

Watson was absolutely right, that emotion was respect and even a little fear. When the "kid" spoke, she immediately stopped speaking. Even look tentatively at the other person for advice.

This undoubtedly shows that this "child" has a very high status.

The royal family is probably the only child who can be so respected and feared by a knight. But there is no doubt that Avalon currently has no male royals of this age.

Then there is only one explanation.

This person who looks like a child has the mind of an adult. He is a dwarf!

And there is a high probability that it is a minister or the secret manager of an organization!

"—Stop imagining things, Detective Watson. Please answer my questions."

The child impatiently raised the cane in his hand and poked his abdomen gently. It was as if he had been stabbed with an iron rod by an ignorant child, and the pain made him grin. But it also woke him up from his thoughts and fantasies in an instant.

"Yes, Mr. Doyle..."

He responded subconsciously.

But as soon as he said this, he saw "Mr. Doyle" immediately raised his eyebrows. So Watson immediately knew that he had accidentally said the wrong thing again, and he immediately regretted it.

He could only hold on and pretend that he didn't see anything: "I'm here to find Detective Sherlock Hermes."

"……Um?"

Haina was stunned for a moment and glanced at Sherlock subconsciously.

And this subtle expression was immediately captured by Watson.

His heart immediately tightened.

——Why is she looking at that dwarf?

Is he involved in Sherlock's disappearance? Did he do it? Or is Sherlock related to him?

Or... he is Sherlock?

After having such a thought in his mind, Watson immediately had a new association in his mind: Yes, if Sherlock becomes a child through the ceremony, he will indeed disappear suddenly.

Then it would make sense for the arbitrator to respect him. And his unceremonious feeling towards himself, as well as his feeling of being a little disgusted but a little reassured, are also vaguely like Sherlock...

"I am Mr. Hermes' apprentice."

Little Sherlock poked Detective Watson with the cane and said unceremoniously: "What do you want to see him for?"

"He is missing... there is suspicion that he was killed."

Watson replied half-truthfully: "Entrust me to investigate his whereabouts."

"He's fine. Just conducting an undercover investigation."

Little Sherlock replied calmly: "He will go back in two months at the latest. Go tell your client - if there is such a client."

Watson's heart tightened, he opened his mouth and then closed it, remaining silent for a moment.

And Sherlock was already sighing in his heart.

This idiot...

He felt that Watson was not very smart before, but now this feeling is even clearer.

Sherlock, who has now reached the third level of wisdom, can clearly perceive... Detective Watson's wisdom path has only reached the second level.

He is really not smart!

For ordinary people, being able to awaken to the extraordinary profession that comes from the path of wisdom seems to mean that he is a smart person.

But Sherlock knew the other party's identity——

He is the illegitimate son of a mage lord in Narcissus Territory and a son of the moon. As a combination of two high-ranking extraordinary beings with different paths, he was born with the adaptability to the path of wisdom and the path of love.

However, Watson's strength is not outstanding.

At least not very prominent on the path of wisdom.

Although he was born with adaptability to the path of wisdom, he actually only reached the second level at his current age...

Generally speaking, college students who have just graduated are almost at this level!

Detective Watson's father, Dr. Watson, is a fourth-level senior mage who can fight even a fifth-level expert in his own mage tower. What he is most respected for is his research results as a doctor of medicine - he has knowledge of dental diseases, digestive system diseases and lymphatic system diseases.

Sherlock even read Dr. Watson's paper and learned a lot from it.

Dr. Watson once wrote a monograph that demonstrated in detail the digestion speed of various foods in the human body. And after the human body dies, what will happen to various foods in different stages of digestion under different environments and after different times.

Dr. Watson once wrote a paper about the injuries caused by bullets of different types hitting different parts of the human body at different distances, and what the final direct cause of death may be.

This knowledge has greatly inspired Sherlock.

He is also Sherlock's pen pal and foreign aid. When Sherlock encountered some difficult cases, he photographed some of the information and mailed it to the doctor, and he would kindly provide detailed answers.

Dr. Watson also wrote a letter, hoping that Sherlock would help him take care of his children. Otherwise, he is likely to be "exchanged hostage" by the Avalon authorities.

——Yes, Andre Watson’s true identity is a spy.

Moreover, he was a spy who had been exposed long ago and was placed under Avalon's supervision.
