?Since meeting O'Reilly, Tom has never seen him with such an expression: helplessness, admiration, fear, irritability and... awe?

Merlin, even this lawless kid will have people in awe?O'Reilly is a talent who has the courage to talk nonsense in front of Hannibal.Because of his reaction, Tom finally took an interest in Jim whose name was mentioned several times.He twitched the corner of his mouth, the other party's name was really on the same level as his own - they were all bad street ones.

"So, who is he?"

Hearing Tom's question, O'Reilly asked him in disbelief, "As a British criminal, you don't know Moriarty?"

He couldn't help laughing out loud: "God!"

Tom kicked him blankly: "Stop talking nonsense."

O'Reilly shrugged his shoulders and put away his smile, but there was still a surprised smile on the corner of his mouth: "We have a few words to describe that person: Do you want to rob? Do you want to kill? Do you want to do bad things? Go find Come on Jim, they can do anything for you."

"Hired killer?"

"It's not that simple." O'Reilly withdrew his arms from the back of the chair, folded them across his chest, and shook his brown head, "To be precise, you are hiring criminals. If you want to do something illegal, such as Do some drugs, or rob a bank, you can ask Moriarty for advice, he will help you design everything, make a plan, match the bridge, you just need to follow his instructions when the time comes. Simple and easy, and Don't worry about the note, because he'll help you clean up and take care of everything."

O'Reilly spread his hands: "And you only need to pay a small price to get the help of this almighty Jim!"

Tom frowned: "It sounds like a big deal, but what is the price for the lion?"

"I don't know, I can't say for sure. Sometimes it's money, sometimes it's something that is within the client's ability, and I heard that there are also intelligence and so on. In short, it depends on what Moriarty needs at the time."

"Then he has activities of his own besides criminal counseling?"

"I don't know about that. No one on the road took the risk of offending him to investigate the details of this crime professor. It should be said that there have been such people: trying to find a way for Moriarty to threaten him to defend himself But they were all killed without exception." O'Reilly gestured with a pistol|gun, pointed at his temple and squeezed his mouth inward, then let it go suddenly: "Boom—killed with one blow. "

"...One last question." Tom ignored O'Reilly's pretentious cuteness, and raised his index finger and asked seriously, "Since he is so powerful, why was he caught in Oz? The British government is willing to release him?"

O'Reilly gave Tom a blank look: "When I was arrested and imprisoned, he was still alive and kicking. How could he know how he was arrested. Besides, since you were all sent over by the British government, he also possible."

But he was the Dark Lord, not that Moriarty.Tom thought, without further asking, the discussion of Moriarty was completely over at this point.Three days later, the "Emperor of Crime" in O'Reilly's mouth will come to the "Emerald City", which will satisfy Tom's curiosity.

But before that, he actually received a letter from Hannibal.

Beecher had brought the letter, and he stayed on as one of the four in O'Reilly's group (Tom was also one of the four), who was now in charge of Ozzie's daily correspondence.

Tom waited for so long but didn't get the news from his subordinates, but he received Hannibal's letter first, which made him very dissatisfied. Not even an old Muggle!

Opening the envelope that had been opened and checked before, Hannibal's beautiful handwriting came into view. Those were two clean and white ordinary letter papers, exuding a faint smell of ink. Tom could almost imagine Hannibal's handwriting. Sitting on a bench in a mental hospital, writing this letter with a pen in his hand and his usual smile, his blue eyes must have been surprisingly bright with annoyance and amusement.

The letter paper reads:

Dear Tom:

See you.Long time no see, I miss you very much. (Tom pouted: I really want to kill me) When you read this letter, I am already hundreds of kilometers away in the Baltimore mental hospital.I don't mean to complain to you about what a self-righteous idiot the dean is here, and I don't want you to misunderstand me. Oz is thousands of miles away. (Tom smiles gloatingly at this sentence) I write this letter because as I contemplate this bare brick wall here, I remember a gift I haven't had time to give you.

After reading this, Tom had a bad feeling when he saw the word gift, but he continued to read, after all, Hannibal wrote two pages.

Remember that case Will Graham asked me to help with before I left Oz?The serial killer in the case, known to the media as the Tooth Fairy, whose real name was Fracis Dollard.In the dramatic change of facts, he used suspended animation to temporarily evade the pursuit of the FBI, and successfully sneaked into Agent Will's house. We all know what happened afterwards. I have to say that I feel very sorry for this.

Well, you probably guessed the reason why I took such a long time to introduce you to the famous tooth fairy-he is related to the gift I want to give you.

You probably don't know that I mentioned you to him, and that Mr. Dollard was interested in your story.Now, now that Mr. Dollard has been arrested, and in my estimation—permit me to show off my medical knowledge here, he should be healed enough to be discharged from the hospital by this time.Then, he may come to you soon, and this is my gift to you.

I'm sure you'll have a great time getting along :D

Hannibal Lecter

As soon as the letter was read, the two sheets of flat and soft letter paper were squeezed by Tom violently, rolled into a paper ball, and smashed hard against the wall.Then the ball of paper bounced back to the ground, bounced, and rolled into the corner of the room.

Tom sat on the bed sulking, especially when he thought of that little face that Hannibal drew at the end, and he wanted to immediately Apparate to Baltimore and cast Cruciatus on his dear Dr. Lecter.

He was still wondering not long ago, Hannibal was cheated by him like this and didn't move?You must know that Will who sent him to prison was finally killed by him commanding the Tooth Fairy!Even Will's wife and children were implicated.Hannibal was obediently transferred after being tricked by himself, without any revenge?How can it be!

It turned out that this was the card he played!

This letter was the switch that flipped the bottom of the card, because Mike Minus must have checked the contents of the letter beforehand and knew the danger of the Tooth Fairy.He who hated Tom deeply would not be untouched, maybe the Tooth Fairy would not have come to Oz, and Hannibal would have been sent in by Mike Minus for writing like this.He'd love to see Tom fight the Tooth Fairy, maybe even die.And these, Hannibal has long expected!He knew that the letter he wrote would be checked in advance, and he also guessed that after the riot, Mike Manus would hate himself, and he did it on purpose.

Tom looked out of the cell with a gloomy face. The rest hall, which was bustling in the past, had fewer people due to Mike Manus's policy, making it appear much cleaner.He saw O'Reilly talking shoulder to shoulder with Beecher while walking through the center of the hall, and they passed by Karim who was praying, and the line of believers behind him also shrank significantly. Li Mu is so fiercely opposed to this new policy.

He thought of the Tooth Fairy again, thought of what he admired just now, thought of the last smiling face on the snow-white letter paper.Finally, Tom whispered to himself, "Let him come then. I'll carve a smiley face on him and give it back to you!"

His reflection was reflected in the glass wall beside him, and his red eyes looked particularly ghostly against the black hair.Tom looked into his eyes and smiled.

Two days later, with such a smile on his face, he met the newcomer he needed to guide——Jim Moriarty.

Tom had had an odd feeling the first time he saw Moriarty.The feeling grew stronger as he approached the iron door that slid open and closed.He noticed that instead of policewoman Diane giving the newcomers a lecture, it was a tall guard with thick arms, was it Barry or John?He was the only lucky one who was held hostage in that riot, but was rescued without death or hands.

It could be seen that he was much rougher than the dead Diane. Another newcomer who came in with Moriarty this time talked back to him once, but the guard pulled out his baton and beat him violently on the ground.

Amidst the shouts of the prisoners and the dull sound of his baton being struck, Moriarty, who was leaning against the wall and watching coldly, suddenly raised his head, and met Tom, who had been watching him through the iron gate.

As for why Tom can tell who is Jim Moriarty at a glance?The Dark Lord, who never believed in intuition, could only reluctantly spit out the word "intuition" this time.

For no reason, he just thought that the man with black hair, black eyes and indifferent face was Jim Moriarty.

His expressionless face may be tired of the farce around him, but this boredom disappeared without a trace after looking at Tom for a second.Obvious surprise crept across his face, before turning into a smile.

His smile reminded Tom of the kind a hunter with a gun wears when he sees a wolf.Cruel, impatient, eager to hit the lone wolf and watch the blood stain its thick and gorgeous fur.

Tom narrowed his eyes and stared into the other's dark eyes, with an undisguised killing intent on his face.

But Moriarty, who saw all this clearly, smiled even more happily. He didn't expect that this trip to the prison would bring the big man he had always wanted to meet but couldn't meet, Tom, who was called the Dark Lord by those wizards. Riddle, or he should call him Lord Voldemort. ?
