I don't know whether he realized the danger of Aum's question, or he developed resistance under the stimulation round after round of Sherlock and Bruce, Nereus closed his mouth tightly, and did not answer a word, and cooperated with him. The slightly drooping posture of the head is like suddenly becoming deaf and dumb.

Seeing this, Aum didn't think he was disobedient, and still smiled gently and kindly.

"I don't want to answer this question? It doesn't matter. We can discuss it later. How about continuing to finish the case now?"

Nereus was so angry and bloody that he was about to have a cerebral hemorrhage, but he still held on to a smirk, "Okay——"

Well said, it sounds more like "kill you!".

"OK!"

Suddenly another voice interrupted Nereus' smirk.

"No one will ask a prisoner's opinion, Prince Nereus." Sherlock put his hands in the outer pocket of the windbreaker, facing Nereus sideways, looking down at him from the corner of his eye, and his whole body is capitalized The "arrogance" ontology.

Nereus couldn't help covering his chest, he really felt like his heart was about to burst.

However, Arthur's palm was firmly pressed on his shoulder, and he could even feel Arthur's gaze was fixed on him. Nereus somehow thought of the lantern fish in the deep sea at night, slowly Float in the dark waters and wait for your food to fall into your trap.

Suddenly, the fear of being targeted by predators overwhelmed the anger of being despised and occupied most of Nereus' mind.

Sherlock suddenly looked at Arthur, snorted silently, turned his head quickly before Arthur could react, and continued to explain the case in a serious manner.

"After having doubts about the information provided by the Security Department..."

Arthur blinked in confusion, and then blinked again, completely confused about what happened.However, he suddenly thought of a word that could accurately describe Mr. Sherlock's performance just now - naive.

"...Aum used some special small methods to obtain a victim's information that was much more detailed than the information provided by the Ministry of Security.

It is this information that confirms many issues—for example, the commonality among victims.For another example, someone in Atlantis betrayed the country. "

"With all due respect," Nereus couldn't help interrupting: "Mr. Curly Hair, as Prince Nereus of Atlantis and father of Princess Mera, Minister of Foreign Affairs, I'm afraid it's not your turn Feel free to comment!"

"Oh--"

Sherlock's voice twisted and turned.

"—but I didn't seem to mention you, Prince Nereus?"

There was muffled laughter in the room.

"I've seen a lot of people throwing blame at each other, but it's definitely a rare thing to take the initiative to take the blame on yourself, and it's still such a big treason."

Orm turned his head to one side, gossiped with Bruce in amazement, and regretted that he didn't prepare some snacks such as jellyfish and small octopus in advance, otherwise it would be more enjoyable to watch the show.

Nereus' face quickly turned liver-colored visible to the naked eye.

Damn land people!

insidious!

cunning!

"Don't think too much, I'm really not talking about you, but someone from the Security Office. It's not your turn yet, Prince Nereus, don't worry."

Sherlock added another knife, very sincere, Mr. Detective, who was turned on by a strange switch by the big black bat, performed a lively drama by himself.

Seeing that Nereus' face was about to turn into squid juice from pig liver, Orm coughed twice, reminding Sherlock not to play.

Don't get me wrong, he wasn't worried that Nereus would get mad, he was worried that Sherlock would miss lunch after playing too long, and he and Arthur had been busy since the morning, so they didn't even have time to eat a bite of fish.

"I'm a little self-conscious, don't interrupt me casually!"

After Sherlock seriously warned Nereus, he finally switched back to the state of seriously analyzing the case.

Nereus choked his breath in his throat, unable to spit it out or swallow it. If his eyes could be materialized, he would probably have torn Sherlock into pieces like a cod!

"Someone in the Security Office tampered with the case information, but after checking the original data in the Security Office's database, it was found that the information there was correct.

That is to say, the person who tampers with the data must be in a high position in the security department to tamper with the data.But he will not be the top officer of the Security Agency, because he does not have the authority to modify the database at will. "

Nereus hadn't recovered from the feeling of almost having a heart attack, but his expression changed slightly when he was startled by Sherlock's words, and he opened his mouth to ask a question.

"Hush—" Sherlock shooed him quickly, "Be honest! Don't interrupt me!"

"..." Nereus suddenly wanted to be beaten half to death by the king, and to tear this damned curly-haired landman to pieces!

Seeing that Nereus was blocked back, Sherlock was satisfied.

"After knowing this information, it is obvious who the insider in the security department is. But I can't tell you yet, and you will be able to meet him when the phishing law enforcement is successful."

Nereus suddenly raised his head and looked at Aum who was sitting gracefully beside him in disbelief!

He finally understands!

Aum brought the king to the door early in the morning and blocked him here, not at all to explain the case, nor to expose what he had done!

Aum's real purpose is to trap him, and then use the disappearance of the murloc as an opportunity to make use of the problem and uproot the power he has worked so hard to preserve!

Nereus closed his eyes, his heart sinking.

The struggle for power is a life-and-death struggle. Aum seized the opportunity and took advantage of the situation to uproot him. No matter how ruthless the attack is, it is normal, but... he is underestimated!

For this plan, he has been secretly planning for a long time, paid a huge price, and mobilized more than 80% of the manpower quietly buried in the kingdom's general office and departments at all levels. The actual ruler of Atlantis did not expect to be defeated at the first step!

The disappearance of the murloc is just the first step!

lost!

All the spirits present understood Nereus' expression, and Arthur and Saul, who did not understand their expressions, also understood the expressions of their younger brothers, and the sea fell into silence for a while.

I don't know how much time passed, a chuckle floated in the sea.

"Got it figured out?" Aum was smiling this time, but there was no smile on his face, and the cold light in his eyes could almost freeze the sea water.

Nereus gritted his teeth and said nothing.

He has not fallen into a desperate situation with no way out!

He didn't believe that no matter how powerful Aum was, he would never be able to find out the part of his staff that he had never used!

He hasn't lost completely yet!

And, Orm hasn't found out about that yet!

"It's very smart, it's a pity that you reacted so quickly..." Aum's voice was very soft, fluctuating with the sea water fluctuations, "...just like you, smart and wise, but you have identified a It is a pity that there is no turning back on the wrong path.”

Aum's words completely detonated Nereus!

He stood up suddenly, and rushed straight to Aum, but... before he could get half a meter away, Arthur mercilessly pushed him back.Then Arthur pressed Nereus' shoulders with one hand and the other, making sure that he wouldn't leave the seat even a centimeter away!

Orm's words struck Nereus as if struck by lightning!

Aum has fully guessed his purpose, but instead of helping him, he wants to arrest him? !

"mistake?!"

Nereus, who was trapped by Arthur and couldn't move, showed a bit of madness, screaming and struggling endlessly,

"You said I was wrong?! Don't you forget who used to throw all the marine garbage ashore? And who almost successfully launched a war on land?

land people!insidious!cunning!Shameless!Destroy the environment crazily! ..."

Every time Nereus spat out a word, he pointed at Sherlock, probably using him as the number one scum representative among land people.

Sherlock, who draws hatred with his strength, is blindfolded, and he doesn't bother to care about people who are mad because of failure.

"... Ha! I see! You are cowardly! Cowardly! After being defeated by Arthur, you no longer have the courage to resist him! No courage to uphold the traditions of Atlantis!

Look what you guys are doing!Allow shameless land people to enter Atlantis, allow their dirty soles to trample the capital of Atlantis!The missing murlocs were all caused by you!That's just the beginning, you allow land people to enter, it will only make Atlantis never peaceful!Aum, you cowardly sinner..."

Nereus' crazy slander didn't even make Aum's brows move, but Arthur frowned in dissatisfaction, and suddenly exerted force with his palm, and with an inconspicuous "click", Nereus' roar stopped abruptly. .

Orm raised his eyebrows, a smile flickered on the corner of his mouth, and then he returned to his expressionless face, and said to Sherlock: "Hurry up and finish the case of the murloc's disappearance."

Sherlock nodded, didn't even bother to hum, and opened his mouth directly.No sarcasm, no provocative Nereus nonsense, very concise.

"In addition to positively proving that the security agency's information is wrong, the victim who escaped successfully also provided two pieces of information. The murdered murloc was asked to meet at a cold drink shop called 'PinkPikaStar', and she found out when she was kidnapped. , the water suits worn by the criminals were the ones that had just returned to the warehouse for maintenance.

Eight consecutive kidnapping cases were carried out within five days, and they were not witnessed. The cases would definitely not be carried out in places unfamiliar to the criminals. In other words, the cold drink shop is the scene of the crime that has never been found.

As for the water suits, the great thing is that the victim memorized most of the codes of the water suits worn by the criminal. After checking the codes with the storage records of the water suits at the time of the disappearance, Aum could find them immediately. Corresponding batches of water luggage, and then screen out the person who smuggled the water luggage out of the warehouse and provided it to criminals. "

After talking for a long time, Sherlock paused for a second before continuing:

"The water suits issued to tourists when they enter Atlantis are all registered. You have carefully prevented the possibility of identifying criminals through the code of the water suits. But why have you never thought about it? Knowing that the water suits used by the criminals flowed out of the library, it will only expose more?"

Taking a serious look at the silent Nereus, Sherlock suddenly laughed.

"Prince Nereus, are you thinking that you just lost because of bad luck?

No, it's not. What really exposes you is your stupidity—what have you done, why do you have to 'burn' the PinkPikaStar cold drink shop? "
