People are in the moon, The Sims

At this moment, footsteps sounded from behind Holmes, and Home came behind Holmes, because the name of the interesting person the professor mentioned was none other than Sherlock Holmes.

Chapter 167: "Grey Rabbit" Home

"Do you think you helped him? Sherlock Holmes."

Such a sentence was directly transmitted to Holmes's ears. These sudden words indeed frightened the young man. But even so, the young man's face still did not have an overly exaggerated expression, but opened his eyes slightly. He closed his eyes and tightened the weapon in his hand while turning around.

Holm's beret slightly covered part of his cheek. At the same time, because the hat was pressed down, part of his pale blond hair also covered his eyes.

Who is this guy?

Holmes silently looked at the classmate in front of him. This person should be a classmate, but he did not have a clear memory in his mind, and he should not have seen the classmate in front of him. Could it be that his uniqueness has made his name spread all over the world? The entire academy?

"Holmes, you have strong reasoning ability and your fighting skills are not bad. You are indeed an interesting person as my father said."

Father? Does the father of the classmate in front of me know me? Holmes's brain was spinning rapidly. This was the best of times and the worst of times. Holmes never underestimated the dangers of this era.

Let him think about who he has offended. The people he has offended recently have all gone to jail. Was it earlier? Could it be someone he offended when he was traveling when he was 14?

Let him think about what happened when he started traveling when he was 14 years old.

In July of that year, my father was sent to India to suppress the rebellion, and my mother was bedridden, so she moved to Holmes Manor. Later, she learned about wilderness survival and logic, and then got involved in a case and was taken to Cherbourg, France in a coma. Finally, a conspiracy against the British army was successfully prevented.

In September, during the "Red Leech" incident, due to the arrest of a friend, he and his teacher and his daughter boarded the Scotia and headed for New York, USA. In New York, they were taken to Pezevines, New Jersey, to save their friend and their teacher's daughter. Later, he successfully prevented the rebels' plot to divide Canada through armed struggle.

In October, because he was involved in a conspiracy to prevent the United States from purchasing Alaska from Tsarist Russia, he and Mycroft went to Moscow, Russia, to prevent the assassination of Pyotr Andreevich Shuvalov, the head of the Third Agency, and A conspiracy to frame Mycroft to sow discord between Britain and Russia.

In December, he went to Edinburgh and soon returned to Farnham. After being knocked unconscious in the room, he was thrown on a ship to China. In May of the following year, it was discovered on the ship that a Dutch businessman used snake venom to kill a Chinese cook and an American cook. Businessman's case.

Well, the last one doesn't seem to be a big problem, but it seems that he has offended quite a few countries and dignitaries.

I have to say that if this were not the real world, wouldn’t everyone think that they would be the ones with the aura of the leading actor? After all, who would experience so many dangerous and interesting things between the ages of 14 and 16?

"Please don't worry, Holmes, I'm just curious about you at the moment."

Holm raised his head slightly, with a soft smile on his face. The gray eyes hidden behind his glasses were more shy and bookish than before, and his whole temperament seemed... Like an Arctic hare covered in long gray fluff, it looks deserted and somewhat pushy.

However, because there are many helpful friends around him, not many people dare to go beyond these friends and rub this Arctic hare hard.

Of course, this kind of camouflage temperament is also thanks to the first case that I came into contact with the professor. Harmless rabbits are easy to be stared at, and at the same time, there will be people to protect them. As long as I get closer to those who are willing to protect rabbits... ....No one will associate the young man who is following the placement consultant with themselves.

"By the way, I forgot to introduce myself. I am Home Cullors, the adopted son of Professor Moriarty."

After seeing the temperament displayed by the young man in front of him and the last words he uttered, Holmes' tense nerves slowly relaxed. It turned out to be Professor Moriarty. He could enter this college. It was also introduced by Professor Moriarty. In this case, it is not surprising that Professor Moriarty's adopted son knows his name.

It really scared him. The boy in front of him didn't seem to mean it. He wanted to scare him, so he should... right?

Although the long journey has taught Holmes that the temperament displayed by a person does not necessarily represent the whole person, he seems unable to see the other side of the young man in front of him hidden under the skin of this little rabbit.

There are very few such people, but that doesn’t mean there are none.

In fact, this is also thanks to Holm's characteristics. He understands human emotions but cannot empathize with them. These emotional characters are like switches one after another in Holm. Turning off all these switches, as calm as a dead person, is the current situation. The true essence of Holm is like a blank sheet of paper that can be dyed into any color.

However, Holm’s white paper can wash away the color at any time.

In this year, thanks to Holm's characteristics, the professor has mastered a lot of information that he had not obtained before. After all, Holm is a natural espionage agent, so he has been a young employee in the factory since ancient times. , or he could be a noble boy who escaped secretly, he could be an attractive bartender in a bar, or he could be a wanderer with low self-esteem.

Although there is a slight awkwardness because he cannot empathize with emotions, compared to a being who does not even understand emotions, at least Holm's body was once a human being, and at the same time, the original intention of his birth was to become a perfect and obedient person. Cyborg.

"Home Cullors? Your name is really special."

As a person who is proficient in supernatural cases, Holmes has certainly heard of some rumored murder cases of artificial humans, the most famous of which is the case of Frankenstein.

Holm scratched his cheek in embarrassment, with a bit of helplessness on his face. It was the method of his current personality that was most suitable for him according to his brain's analysis and calculation.

"My parents were obsessed with alchemy. They even hoped that I was a creature created by them. Even this name did not follow any of them. But in the end, they also died because of alchemy, but I am not very worried. , after all, they have become crazy addicted.”

Holmes nodded, obsessed with some mystical and crazy people, he had seen more than one or two.

"But Classmate Cullors, what did you mean by what you just said?"

Chapter 168: The most unpredictable thing is the human heart

The smile on Holm's face faded, and his gray eyes became calm and wise, which seemed to be able to see through people's hearts. His tone also became as elegant as a violin, not as smug as before. A waxy feeling.

"Reasoning can indeed explore the ins and outs of an event, and it can indeed speculate on a person's heart, but remember not to rely too much on logical reasoning, because - the most unpredictable thing is the human heart."

The atmosphere seemed a little solemn at this moment.

But the next moment Holm turned into the gray rabbit again, even with a shy blush on his face, "This is what my father said once when he was reading a mystery novel. I wonder if I can imitate it?" "

call......

The originally tense atmosphere calmed down again. The mood was like riding a roller coaster. Although Holmes had experienced several storms, he was still just an 18-year-old young man after all. He could not do it no matter what he faced. He is calm and calm about anything.

Then one thing is certain, the gray rabbit-like boy in front of me is not as quiet as imagined. He seems to have some bad taste that he is not aware of, or is he deliberately sinister?

Sure enough, everyone has two sides, but this made Holmes more at ease.

But soon Holmes's expression became serious again, "Are you saying that the situation of the classmate just now will not become better because of this, but will actually become worse?"

Holm scratched his cheek, as if he mustered up more courage with every word he spoke, "Maybe...ah, it's time for my friend and I to go to the library. Then let’s talk again when we have the opportunity, Mr. Holmes.”

Holm turned around slightly, the expression on his face instantly reset, and his eyes narrowed slightly, leaving Holmes alone, thoughtful.

Will the injured classmate have a better future? how can that be possible.

Not to mention that people's hearts are the most difficult to predict. As long as Holmes gets to know the little bully better, he will understand that when he kills in anger, he is a pure child with no sense at all, because he is completely Don't know what the consequences are.

Or maybe he grew up under the love and care of his father and had a smooth life, even stepping on the head of his legitimate son, and he didn't understand what propriety meant at all, because in his impression, everything would be settled by his father.

This person, on a normal day, would feel like he had lost face if the pencil in his hand dropped to the ground, let alone today, where he had lost face twice in a row, once in a fencing competition. Under the gaze of everyone, just this one time was enough to make the little overlord explode.

After that, he suffered another loss from Holmes. Although this little bully would look for trouble with Holmes, he would probably not take action until he was not sure. However, this anger must be vented, so guess what the unlucky person will do Who is it?

After all, this little bully cares so much about his own face or his identity, whether he is bullying his legitimate son, whether he wants to highlight his characteristics of being favored by his father, or whether he does not want to be embarrassed, etc. The essence is that I don't want to be like most other illegitimate children.

Tonight, it was time to take action on his own. After all, he had been with the professor for a year, and Holm gradually began to think about what he wanted to do and what he should do.

When he came to the corner of the library, Holm did not take a book from the library bookshelf, but took out a leather notebook from his pocket, which he found accidentally in the study room at home. Well, Professor Diary of early years.

It is hard to imagine that this being in the darkness, at the end of the cobweb, wanted to be a mediator of evil in the early years. Perhaps this diary that has not been disposed of is the only dark history of this professor. In fact, It is also quite interesting to take a look at the psychological process and thoughts of this nominal father in his early years. At least it can help you understand the professor better.

Watching the setting sun and the street lights being lit up one by one, Holm took out his pocket watch, looked at the time and nodded gently. It was almost time to take action. As for where to go, To meet the poor legitimate child, of course.

After the sun goes down, those wandering obsessions are my own eyes.

After packing up his things and walking out of the library, Holm walked straight in one direction. He looked at the sky and the haze gathering around him, and couldn't help but sigh. It was another moonless night with no stars in sight.

I don’t know if my identity as [criminal counselor assistant] can catch up. If not, I will have to use another identity.

At this time, there were not many students on campus except for those students living in the dormitories. In the boys' dormitory, because the kerosene lamp was not lit, the whole room was dark. At the same time, in this darkness A touch of blood smell spreads in Ruowuowuowu.

The little bully looked at the blood on his fist, then looked at the open window, and walked to the window angrily. Did that guy think he could get rid of himself by jumping out of the window? How can it be? The face lost today must be recovered tenfold or even a hundredfold.

Damn it, because there is no moon and it is dark, plus the haze, it is impossible to see what is going on on the first floor.

But the little bully was not in a hurry. After all, if he fell from the third floor, he would not be able to run so fast even if he didn't break his bones. When he came under the window and was about to follow the blood stains and continue to chase and beat people, he saw He found a corpse with a dead eye and a broken neck, and those eyes were staring at him.

The next moment, a chill rose up from his heart, not because he was worried that he would be sentenced after killing someone.

After all, the old nobleman has no fertility, and they only have two sons. Now one of the unfavored legitimate sons has died, and the favored illegitimate son is still alive. Perhaps this is what the old nobleman wants to see.

What's more, no matter what, the old noble needs an heir to inherit his position, and he also needs an heir to pass on his blood. There is always a way to correct the identity of the illegitimate son. It's just a divorce. This time the other members of the family There is no reason for him to maintain his current marriage.

This little bully might only be able to get out after staying in prison for a year or two at most, and because of the old noble's care, his life would not be bad even if he had to live in prison.

What frightens this little bully is the look in his eyes that says "I won't let you go even if I die."

Chapter 169: Wake up, zombie

Maybe it's because of the night, maybe it's because of the thick fog, maybe it's because there's no light in the place, it's really hard to see clearly, or maybe it's because you don't want anyone to get involved in this matter, thus attracting the little bully. hostility.

When Holm came here, no one had discovered this corpse. However, compared to the time when this corpse was just born, now this corpse lacks a pair of eyes full of unwillingness, leaving an empty look. There are eye frames, and there is a pair of trampled eyes on the ground.

Holm could already imagine the little bully, cursing and holding back his fear, angrily gouging out his eyes, crushing them, and cursing, even if he dies, he will do it at the end. Scare me!

"It seems that as a criminal counselor's assistant, I arrived late."

Holm took off his beret and put it on his chest. He quietly observed a minute of silence in front of the body. He then took off his glasses and put them gently in his pocket. His gray eyes stared at the front. The body was covered in wounds, its neck was broken, and its eyes were still bleeding. There was no expression on its face.

There was nothing to be afraid of. After all, the corpse in front of him was the same kind as himself to some extent.

And as the glasses that sealed the magic eye were taken off, the remaining soul and obsessions of the corpse in front of him were clearly displayed in front of Holm. Only at this time did Holm I am extremely convinced that souls really exist in this world, but in this era, where can souls go after human beings die?

At the same time, is there a soul in this body of my own? Where does the soul in my body come from? This question is also bothering Home.

"Ah...I'm sorry for leaving you here, alone in a daze."

Holm made a noble meeting etiquette, and then looked at the obsession that was constantly wailing and shouting unwillingly. The communication ability of these obsessions was limited, so Holm could not communicate like a professor. like a riddle man.

"Good evening, Mr. Obsession, I have a service here that you seem to need very much. Do you know the so-called [Corpse Man]? I will give you a chance to take revenge with my own hands."

The temperament of Holm's whole body became like a corpse. This was a dialogue between the dead and the dead, an ability that was realized through these magic eyes and undead magic.

The so-called [Corpse] is a technology that Holm achieved by studying undead magic and combining it with his own body. It is a technology that temporarily resurrects the dead.

In this world, where there is light, there is also darkness. Hidden under the prosperity are endless crimes. These crimes may be intentional or unintentional, but some people will always escape the sanctions of the law. At this time, should we allow so-called crimes to continue to exist? No, tooth for tooth, eye for eye, evil for evil. Only those who suffer such pain can get out of the abyss, and those who do evil can get retribution.

The professor may have understood that evil can never be reconciled, so he became the man at the end of the spider's web and a criminal counselor, giving people in pain a chance to escape from the abyss.

However, not everyone who dies because of sin is remembered, and everyone grieves for him. The line of cause and effect seems to have been cut at this moment, and the evildoer seems to have got rid of the shackles and can continue to live a free life.

The result is really disgusting.

This is a reaction based on Holm's physical instinct. It is a remnant of the previous owner of this body. This instinct does not belong to him, but when he is so confused and has no goals, he chooses to accept and inherit these. Instinct reactions may guide your way forward.

In other words, this body still remembers its mission.

He is the one who has completed his revenge as a deceased person. All these are intertwined to form an indescribable coincidence, but maybe this is not a guide from somewhere?

Holm lifted up the corpse on the ground, and then used the blood of the corpse to outline the magic formation on the ground. It took almost all the blood of the corpse to complete this complex and cumbersome magic ritual.

In order to complete the entire ceremony smoothly, I also paid attention to arranging hint magic around me to make people leave.

Then he reached out and put his hand into his waist bag. He kept it on his side. It looked like a schoolbag, but it was a magic gift. This was the man he called daddy in front of the professor for three days. The professor just This high-end product obtained from a magician has an internal storage space far beyond what is visible to the naked eye, even enough to fit a person inside.

It's a pity that this is one of the heirlooms in the magician's family. It can no longer be copied with current technology.

The needle and syringe that existed like a hanging needle were pulled out from the pocket by Holm, and then inserted into the blood vessel accurately. Finally, he turned on his syringe like a faucet, and a large amount of magic liquid was directly injected into it. Among corpses.

These magic liquids are from the same magician as the one flowing in my body, but the effect is weakened compared to the version flowing in my body.

Only at the moment it is injected into the body, it can only be used as a medium to transport energy after it has strong physical recovery capabilities.

The broken neck of the corpse in front of me is recovering at a speed visible to the naked eye. Unfortunately, the eyes cannot regenerate quickly, but it doesn't matter. This is not the first time I have encountered this situation. I took it from my package again. A test tube came out, and the test tube contained ordinary eyeballs.

These things can be purchased from black market merchants as long as there are channels, and the color of the pupils can be changed using magic.

Put the eyeball into the orbit, and the optic nerve will be quickly repaired under the action of the special liquid.

Then he raised his hand and looked at the empty shell of flesh in front of him. Holm's gray eyes became deeper and deeper. He stretched out his hand to grab the fragments of the soul and the fire of obsession. In these evil eyes With his ability, this flexible fragment and obsession was firmly grasped in his hand, and then stuffed into the body.

"Driven by the fire of obsession, take action in a short time, [Corpse 006], before the fire of obsession burns out, complete your revenge with your own hands. You are the remains born from this body. Hibiki, let’s complete the mission of ending this cause and effect.”

Chapter 170: The corpse technology belonging to Holm

It was as if the body and brain were restarting. Looking at [Corpse 006] who smiled wildly like a living person in front of him, Holm understood that his mission was completed, and this time he had completely mastered this technology. .

[Corpse] is driven by the obsession of the deceased, and uses the remaining soul that it can control as rationality. Like a robot that burns energy, it makes the body move again.

Such an existence cannot be considered alive, nor can it be considered completely dead. At the same time, it cannot be said that there is still a soul. What urges them to act there is just obsession.

When the obsession in the body is burned out, the corpse will turn back into a corpse. At the same time, under the action of the internal medicine, the entire body will quickly harden like stone, and then turn into dust with a light touch.

At the same time, as the obsession is gradually burned away, the [Corpse Man] will gradually become more like a corpse, without any purpose or perception, and it will take a while to respond to what others say. It can be said that the time the [Corpse Man] was able to move freely was actually not that long.

When more than half of the obsession is consumed, even your own thoughts of revenge may become extremely weak.

The action goal of [Corpse Man] is different from that of Holm. Because it uses obsession as fuel, [Corpse Man]'s action goal will be more inclined to achieve its own obsessions, and these obsessions may be to see someone again. A glance, maybe it's revenge, maybe it's to accomplish what you've always wanted to do but haven't had the time to do.

Holm is more like a perfect [Corpse]. These bodies do not have so much obsession left. At most, they have some yearning for justice. After all, it is not obsession that drives this body, but something. It's a soul, not to mention that the fuel that drives the automatic driving body is the magic in the atmosphere, not the fire of obsession.

This is also thanks to the fact that the original owner of his parents' body had a talent for magic, and was able to realize the technology of absorbing the magic power in the atmosphere as a body-driven technology.

Speaking of which, if this technology is exposed, I am afraid that some magicians will go crazy. After all, there are always some magicians who will research it to make their souls exist temporarily, or even to seize the body, and the corpse they have mastered Technology can provide a perfect body, or even your own original body.

Because the body itself is the existence of a corpse, theoretically, as long as the working fluid is constantly replaced and injected into the body regularly, one can survive for a long time.

But Holm doesn't think this is a good thing. The memory of the human brain is limited. When the future self forgets its original intention at this moment, it may go to extremes. Time is always the most magical killer, it will kill The memory of the past, let alone living as a corpse, no one knows what kind of impact it will have over a long period of time.
