With the sharp fangs of the last one, the wild boar, which was as big as a baby elephant, fell to the ground wailing.

Miss Bruno put down the skirt that was tied up for easy movement, and walked away from her second brother full of disgust: "It's too dirty."

"Who am I for! Huh?"

James Bruno was dissatisfied. He deliberately pressed his sister's face with the bloody hand that gave the wild boar a fatal blow. "Who said you don't want to get your clothes dirty, ha!"

"Who told you to go out without a weapon." Miss Bruno made a face and dodged again.

"Ha, who said that people who go out to a dinner party with weapons are cowards?" The two siblings blamed each other on the corpses of the two poor monsters.

"I say……"

"If it wasn't for you!"

"It's obviously you!"

"I said!" After confirming the safety, Mr. Dinta slowly moved over and couldn't take it any longer, he raised his head and shouted at them. "Calm down, both of you! How old are you!"

The two siblings resentfully stopped fighting.

"So what should we do now, keep going? Speaking of which, why did you suddenly rush back to fight wild boars? Also, since we have already fought, why did we run ahead?" Mr. Dinta asked them with a big head.

"I also want to know this question." James Bruno crushed the tip of the wild boar's tusk with a click.A good memory immediately reminded him of Eric Holmes's run and Miss Watson's repeated words, which may have caused the arrival of the wild boar.

"This is worth a lot of money in the goblin market. You prodigal son, wasting materials." Miss Bruno ignored her brother's entanglement, she was just lamenting. "It would have been a whole present to Miss Ursula."

"Hey, the name is called like this, do you agree?" James Bruno gritted his teeth, but he let go involuntarily, and really began to think about how to pry the fangs off. .

Miss Bruno noticed her second brother's move keenly. She opened her mouth and was about to say something, but saw something flashed before her eyes.

"What's that?" She covered one eye, leaving only the right eye, and looked at the ends of the two stacked monsters.

In the world that only Miss Bruno's right eye can see, a gate of the realm opens slowly.

"It seems that we can go back?" She rubbed her eyes in surprise, repeatedly confirming the shining door of the secular world.

Upon hearing this, James Bruno stepped forward, turned his sister's face away, frowned and looked at the reflection of the light in her right eye.

"Really." After confirming the location of the boundary gate, he directly left Miss Bruno, jumped off the wild boar's back, and greeted Mr. Dinta: "Hey, Will. We can go back now!"

"Now?" Mr. Dinta just vaguely heard some words like world gate. "No more thread balls?"

"No need." James Bruno glanced at the unusually lively golden dumpling in Mr. Dinta's hands. "We should have touched the mechanism of the maze, just like the hero in the story, as long as he defeats the monster, he can go out naturally. We defeated the wild boar, so we also solved the maze."

"Then this golden thread ball..." Mr. Dinta stroked the ball that had shrunk in size, and said hesitantly.

"Ah, it's also a way to escape. It's a more conventional way of walking the maze." James Bruno said, "In short, let's get out first."

He looked at the summoned monster, his usual cheerful expression faded, and his expression became unpredictable.

……

After leaving the boundary gate, under the guidance of Miss Bruno, the three arrived at the scene of the crime quickly.

Both Judge George and Ursula turned around to greet them, only Eric remained unmoved, and he still maintained the posture of inspecting the scene.

After a while, Judge George and the three of them embraced one by one and confirmed that they were safe before he moved.

"Long time no see, Mr. Dinta, Miss Bruno...and James."

With his back to them, little Holmes stood up from the position of crouching down to inspect the dead.Still didn't turn around, just turned his head slightly and smiled.

"Ah, Eric, it's been a long time." James Bruno didn't bring his energetic smile. "It's really surprising that you came out so much earlier than us. Is there any special method?"

"You should know this better than I do, James. Especially after defeating two giant wild boars." Little Holmes said calmly.

"So you know there is another method?" James Bruno laughed mockingly. "It seems that when you met the monster just now, you just ran away because of your own cowardice?"

This is very rude to say.

"James!" Miss Bruno looked at Ursula, who was expressionless, and then at her brother who suddenly smelled of gunpowder, and pulled his cuff and shouted in disapproval.

"Maybe." Eric was not aroused by the other party's provocation at all, but squatted down and continued his work.

He used tools such as tweezers and an evidence bag that he took out from nowhere, and carefully inspected the head of the person who was kneeling on the fountain platform and wearing a bright red feather hat. , the body of Mr. Kuru, the painter, who was completely submerged in the pool water at a height no higher than the calf of the person who drowned.

"Aren't you going to explain? My friend." James Bruno became angrier when he saw Holmes' gesture.

The young detective didn't turn around until he had finished collecting the information on the deceased, sealed the evidence bag and put it away, and said in a surprised tone that sounded deliberate, "Friend? You mean me?" ?"

"Eric Holmes!"

James Bruno shook off his sister's hand, strode forward, and grabbed the shirt of little Holmes, which was still neat and clean after all the chaos.

Whoa, exciting.Ursula watched from the sidelines as two handsome young men started a game of friendship, love?In the drama of disputes between betrayal and trust, there is a feeling of oh oh oh in my heart, wishing I could eat melon seeds.

Tsk tsk tsk, this shirt is useless, it was grabbed by a hand full of monster blood, Eric will definitely not wear it again, can I change it to a rag when I go back?

She looked at little Bruno's hands that were obviously raised vigorously, thinking about it divergently, and praised her frugality with satisfaction, without any intention of worrying about her fiancé who was about to be beaten violently.

"Are you still not going to explain your behavior in the maze?" James Bruno said, for some reason, he just glanced at Ursula who was watching the scene from the corner of his eye, but he didn't intend to hold the accomplice lady accountable at all.

Little Sherlock Holmes keenly noticed this look in his eyes, he squinted his eyes, directly grabbed the opponent's wrist and squeezed it slightly, a burst of lightning crackled and flashed.

Little Bruno's arm went numb because of this, and he involuntarily let go of the other's skirt.

"Explain what? Explain...why is your brother coveting my fiancée?" Little Holmes adjusted his neckline with one hand, raised his eyebrows in an arrogant manner, and paused every word.

"My ~friend."

The effect of this sentence was very obvious, and several people present were stunned.

"What did you just say?" James Bruno felt guilty when he heard the words of coveting his fiancée. He even completely skipped the word "your brother" as the subject. "What coveting? Is that a misunderstanding?"

"You mean Edgar?"

"Brother likes Miss Ursula?"

Fortunately, Mr. Dinta and Ms. Bruno were still sober. After hearing Eric's expression clearly, they couldn't help exclaiming.

"Edgar also... er... so?" James Bruno's anger at being played by Eric dissipated under the reminder of these exclamations.

As for Judge George, his eyes were dead, and he really didn't expect this to happen.

"I really want to treat you as a friend." Little Holmes suddenly started to perform, he turned his head and said in deep pain.

"But, I'm sorry, it's okay in a bright place." He said sadly: "After walking in the maze with you for a while, I couldn't bear it anymore. In that dim light, you look too much like Viscount Bruno It's..."

Having said that, he stopped and gave this clever little Mr. Bruno enough brain space.

"That's why you took the opportunity to separate from me when the wild boar came?" James Bruno thought for a while and said.

Eric didn't speak, but raised his hand to cover his eyes, but this kind of silent performance, everyone regarded him as acquiescing.

Ursula looked at him in admiration. Little Holmes actually just gave you a reason to be like my rival in love, and the rest were also guilty of guilt, but James Bruno, who is not as shameless as his elder brother, just made logical harmony with himself.

Sure enough, explanations are only needed for fools, and smart people will use their own logic to complete the story themselves.Even if that story is not true, as long as they can convince themselves, they will not doubt the truth.

Ursula watched the little Mr. Bruno suddenly fell into a new tangled expression, and secretly warned herself to be humble.

In this way, it was clearly the scene of a murder case, but everyone was silent because of the love and hatred of living people.

After digesting the information for a while, the tangled eyes of several people present began to slowly shift to Ursula.

Of course Ursula noticed it, she estimated the time when Scotland Yard sent people to come, and felt that Eric's fire was a bit crooked, so she decided to burn another fire herself before entering the formal part of solving the case. trouble.

"Mr Bruno! Miss Bruno!"

Ursula spoke sincerely to the brothers and sisters: "I was also at fault for separating the maze. But... Viscount Bruno's behavior really caused me a lot of trouble. Because of his behavior, I I don’t even dare to get too close to you. So after this incident is over, let’s not meet each other!”

"How is this possible?" Miss Bruno was not happy at first. "My big brother is my big brother, and I don't like his personality either."

"But he's really scary..." Ursula covered her face tremblingly. "When we met for the first time..." She couldn't bear to say any more, she completely learned and used Eric's white space essence

The Bruno brothers and sisters looked at each other, they didn't know what they were thinking, and their expressions were ugly.

"We'll protect you, won't we! James." Miss Bruno bumped into the messy James Bruno.

"Yes, that's right." James Bruno replied quickly. "We'll keep him away from you. Don't keep Sophie away because of Edgar. She really wants to be your friend."

Ursula could hear Eric behind him, chuckling under his breath at the remark.

"...I don't want to give up my friendship with Eric, after all, our game is going well, isn't it?" He thought for a while and added.

"Then I'll leave it to you." Ursula stepped forward suddenly, took the two Bruno's hands one by one, and then overlapped the hands of the three. "We'll be good friends forever, won't we?" She lifted her golden eyes and smiled.

"That's right!" Miss Bruno said excitedly, flattered. "best friend forever."

"Uh..." James Bruno faltered under Judge George's stern stare. "Yes, it is."

"And you will definitely protect your friends from Viscount Bruno's clutches, right?" Ursula continued to induce, tears even welled up in her eyes, making those molten golden pupils even more attractive.

"That's right. We will." James Bruno murmured, feeling himself bewitched by the golden flame in the depths of the girl's eyes.

"That's great, the contract~ is established." The golden-eyed girl suddenly laughed, and she pressed hard, and several black chains representing the oath climbed onto the overlapping hands of the three of them.

After the incantation took effect, she let go of her claws without hesitation, quickly backed away, and came back behind little Holmes, with only her head sticking out.

James Bruno raised his hand to look at the curse that disappeared into the skin, and then at the pair of unmarried couples who followed him like shadows. After seeing Ursula, his mind suddenly woke up from time to time.

"If this is your wish." He sighed, knelt down on one knee, and said to Ursula with an ancient knight's courtesy under the expression that his sister hadn't figured out the situation. "I am willing to serve you."

Ursula stared at his move and frowned, but she didn't refute and refused.This surprised little Holmes, and he couldn't help but glance at the girl behind him.

"I seem to know what's going on with Bruno's house." Miss Witch whispered.

"Eric! Ha, I see you again." Police Officer Lestrade and several of his men rushed to the scene under the leadership of Mrs. Bertha, interrupting their whispering.

Behind these people are the three gentlemen who were separated from Ursula and the rest due to alien forces and stayed in the labyrinth of reality.

They saw that Mr. Dingta's eyes lit up, and they stepped forward and complained: "What's the matter with you, you disappeared as soon as you turned the corner. We didn't dare to walk around, so we waited for a long time."

"Sorry, sorry, there are some special circumstances." Mr. Dinta apologized. He felt that his head was going to be bald.

First he died in the garden of his home, and then got lost in another world. During the period, he was frightened by wild boars, and accidentally learned about the shocking gossip of Bruno's juniors. Finally, he made it to Scotland Yard with great difficulty. All friends make up a plausible excuse for their sudden disappearance.

Being at his wits' end, he could only look at little Sherlock Holmes with a look of "Do you remember?" to remind the other party of their agreement to prove to Miss Bruno.

Eric nodded at him confidently, signaling him to be at ease, and then talked about the case with Officer Lestrade.

"A coincidence indeed," said young Holmes. "I didn't expect to encounter this kind of thing twice in a row."

"Tsk, Mr. Holmes is going to envy you." Lestrade whispered in a voice that only Eric could hear. "He is worried that there are not many interesting cases in London, but you are lucky. In just a few days, strange cases have been delivered to your door."

"I was surprised too." Little Holmes sighed, but then he turned serious and said to Inspector Lestrade.

"Fortunately, this is not like the murder in the theater. I can't help. This time, I can provide you with enough clues to assist in solving the case."
