"... Ah, I probably know what you said." Hearing Edogawa Ranpo's answer, Holmes nodded, and all the confusion in his eyes faded away.

He was already very curious about the purpose of a Bohemian king who came from nowhere to entrust himself as a private detective.

To be honest, it is related to the scandal of the royal family, even if it is the exclusive guards, army, and bodyguards belonging to the country, Irene Adler is the right choice. The shameful photos were circulated because the relationship between the parties no longer existed, which not only proved the king's firm determination to deal with the problem, but also deterred some courtiers who had small thoughts and planned to manipulate the king.

After all, the king tearing his face and the king holding it are two completely different existences.

According to him, this kind of photos related to the scandal of the royal family is nothing to the big man, even if the king will have a fiancée soon, and his fiancée is likely to see the photos a photograph.

Such a king would actually have to ask him, a private detective, to come forward to solve the commission because of a small threatening photo, even if it is to deceive people, but he should not find him, Sherlock Holmes.

It was no secret that the eldest son of the Holmes family worked in the secret service of the government.

Isn't he afraid that after finding the photo, the final destination of this photo will be in the hands of his brother who can represent the British government?

A scandalous photograph serves a very different purpose in the hands of a jealous lady than it does in the hands of a politician.

Where does this confidence come from?

Sherlock Holmes doesn't even have that much confidence in himself.

It would make sense, though, if the woman directed and acted herself, mostly to hide other purposes.

Holmes pondered, turned his head and glanced at the blond woman who had been getting along with Shiraishi Yuki like a best friend for many years, fear flashed in her eyes.

"The cake you made is delicious, Miss Shiraishi."

Irene Adler is a woman with gorgeous blond hair, clear blue eyes, and a charming figure. Looking at her unique appearance, one can understand why she can get along like a fish in water in the social circle.

With her beautiful appearance and superb emotional intelligence, this lady got along smoothly in various aristocratic circles, which is why she was able to steal a certain country's confidential documents so easily.

"That's right, thank you for your compliment, I thought I was a little rusty." Shiraishi Yuki narrowed her light golden eyes when she heard the words, obviously very useful, she praised herself sincerely for such a beautiful big sister very happy.

He even gave her an extra biscuit that she had just baked.

"Mr. Watson, please try."

"Thank you!"

John Watson, as the background board of Mr. Holmes, was brought to the sofa by Yuki Shiraishi, and Holmes and Edogawa Ranpo occupied the dining table and began to make some reasoning that only two people could understand.

"Then, rule out all the impossible, no matter how unbelievable the rest..."

Holmes put his hands on his chin with a deep expression, his expression was very ugly.

He seemed to recall that not long ago his elder brother came to pay him a surprise visit and said a meaningful word before leaving.

"Be careful of beautiful women, they can deceive people."

"Hmm... Mycroft, was this what you wanted to remind me of..."

"Damn it, did you expect it so early..."

"This bastard is still just as arrogant when he mocks people..."

"I won't ask more about what happened. In short, it's good that you know your own problem." Edogawa Ranpo opened one eye, looked at the expression of Holmes gnashing his teeth, and found it interesting for no reason.

"What you plan to do with that woman in the future is not a detective's business." He said this, took the biscuit from Yuki Shiraishi's hand, stuffed it into his mouth, his cheeks puffed up when he spoke, It looks inexplicably like a little squirrel.

"Okay, let's go then."

After exchanging their thoughts with Ranpo Edogawa and enjoying a delicious afternoon tea with Yuki Shiraishi, Holmes sighed and took Watson and Miss Irene back to his location on Baker Street. 221B's residence, and naturally attracted Miss Hudson's questioning.

"That woman is smart, but also dangerous."

After Shiraishi Yuki sent Irene away in a happy mood, Edogawa ranpo looked at the smile on her face and said something coldly, which didn't let the smile on the other party's face collapse. Shiraishi Yuki even smiled back. He said, "I know."

"But at the very least, Miss Irene meant it when she praised my cake as delicious."

In other words, she doesn't care what Eileen is saying at other times.

"She's scared."

Shiraishi Yuki is not like Sherlock Holmes and Edogawa Ranpo who can deduce many things based on clues visible to the naked eye, but she has eyes and can observe by herself.

She could sense the absent-mindedness of this beautiful young lady, and she could also sense that she was on guard all the time.

When her hand accidentally touched the other party, she found that the other party's fingers were cold.

"Has Mr. Holmes any plans for the evening?"

Shiraishi Yuki asked Edogawa Ranpo in exchange for a famous detective's question, "Why do you ask that?"

"...It's that kind of feeling...Mr. Holmes seems to want to do something big." She shrugged as she said so, stretched out her hand to hook Edogawa Ranpo's shoulder, and put her head on the detective's side, "I Do you feel right?"

"It shouldn't be a problem. That guy wants to make a big deal after he's confirmed, so I don't want to get involved."

"But wait, this guy may not get what he wants."

Edogawa sighed in disorder, with a rare gloomy expression.

"As we've said before, the country is going through a turmoil."

"The nobles manipulate the common people, and the common people want to change the rules of the upper class..."

"It's really troublesome..."

He didn't want to be involved in such a strange incident.

"It should have nothing to do with us, right?" Shiraishi Yuki sounded a little guilty when he asked this sentence.In all fairness, they came to this world for no reason, it must be because the instigator had some mission that they wanted them to complete, and this is the only one that they have access to currently, or that is related to the world mission.

"The legendary 'Minister of Crime' who hides in the dark, the dark hero who attacks nobles with bad morals? He is on both sides with Sherlock Holmes. The oppressed commoners regard them as their last hope, while the nobles Treat them like clowns."

"What criminals, I laughed so hard, they are against the whole of Guo Jia."

"It's just that they haven't been caught yet, but soon they will be beaten like street rats."

Some people were terrified by the hand that appeared in the dark, but others dismissed it.

The criminal secretary is only operating in the dark now. Once their trajectory is caught and the entire upper echelon of Guo Jia is free to deal with them, they will end their game sooner or later.

"But... who knows?"

Edogawa Ranpo muttered softly, noncommittal to Shiraishi Yuki's previous question.

Who said that the entire top of Guo Jia did not know their actions?

"Ding-dong-"

Not long after, the doorbell of Shiraishi Yuuki and Edogawa Ranpo's temporary residence was suddenly rang.

Shiraishi Yuki stepped forward to answer the door, and saw a man he had never seen before.

The other party was wearing polite clothes and greeted Shiraishi Yuki politely,

"Nice meeting, Miss Shiraishi Yuki."

"Excuse me, is Edogawa Ranpo-san there?"

"...Ah, he is here."

Shiraishi Yuki looked up at the man, and found that the outline of his face was somewhat similar to that of Sherlock Holmes.

"I'm Mycroft, Mycroft Holmes, I need you to take care of my incompetent brother." The man seemed to have seen Shiraishi Yuki's discovery, and introduced his identity to her.

"...Hello." Shiraishi Yuki looked at the brother who came suddenly and uninvited, curious about his purpose for coming to find Edogawa Ranpo.

"Wait a minute, I'll call him right away."

Edogawa Ranpo is still sleeping at the moment. Although it is impolite to say it, this famous detective will not change his routine no matter where he goes.

As he once said, "If it suits me, everything is fine."

This detective is such a self-willed man.

"Mr. Ranpo, we have guests."

She handed the prepared biscuits to the guest, made him a cup of black tea, and then hurried upstairs and pushed open the door of Edogawa Ranpo's bedroom.

Caught the little detective out of the quilt.

"Come on, it's Mr. Holmes' brother."

"Ah... it's so troublesome."

Hearing Shiraishi Yuki's words, Edogawa Ranpo forced his eyes to open and then quickly closed them. He scratched his hair with a helpless expression.

"Tsk, the most troublesome guy is here."

"Okay, no matter how troublesome the other party is, now wash and take care of yourself obediently, and then come down quickly to meet the guests." Yuki Shiraishi hurriedly went downstairs after pulling Edogawa Ranpo up from the bed. It is impolite for a guest to be left alone in the living room.

"Sorry, Mr. Ranpo will be here soon."

When she trotted all the way back to the living room, Shiraishi Yuki noticed that there were a few cookies missing in the small plate on the table. It seemed that this serious and serious Mr. Holmes liked it quite a bit. Sweet biscuits?

She pretended not to notice that a few biscuits were missing, but asked kindly if she needed more tea.

She has always been fond of customers who appreciate her craftsmanship.
