Active on the Stage of History
"Da... da... da... da..."
In the dimly lit corridor, the rhythmic sound of footsteps could be clearly heard, echoing around.
Fang Li followed Jeanne down the corridor, casually asking questions as he looked around.
"Although I know that because everyone in I-You is a superhuman, it's unlikely that anyone will patrol or guard the place, we haven't seen a single person yet. If I haven't given up on Lurk, isn't this situation far too advantageous for us?"
"From a strategic and tactical standpoint, that's true." Jeanne of Arc didn't even turn her head, but said in a provocative tone, "However, as you said, everyone in I-Yuri is a superhuman. No fool would choose to infiltrate here. You are definitely the first person to do so. So, if the people here find out about this, they won't feel ashamed; they'll find it very interesting."
"So being a superhuman also means being an oddball," Fang Li chuckled, then continued, "In that case, where are all the interesting people?"
"Don't worry, you'll see soon enough." Jeanne glanced at Fang Li and said, "If you want to escape, you might still have a chance now. At least, I can't keep up with your terrifying speed and I definitely can't stop you."
"Unfortunately, now that I'm here, there's no way I can escape until I achieve my goal." Fang Li shrugged and said, "Miss Jeanne, please continue leading the way."
"Miss..." Jeanne blushed again at the word, took a deep breath, and said in a seemingly calm manner, "Go ahead and be strong for now."
During their conversation, led by Jeanne of Arc, Fang Li arrived at the end of the corridor.
As a ray of light appeared ahead, Fang Li squinted slightly. Only after walking out of the corridor did he realize that he had entered an extremely spacious hall.
This is a large hall that resembles an arena.
The hall is circular.
There were no seats for spectators, but there was a corridor on what could be considered the second floor.
Fang Li had stopped walking.
Because Fang Li saw it clearly.
On the second-floor corridor, several figures had appeared, looking down at the hall below and focusing their gazes on Fang Li.
"————"
In that instant, an unprecedented atmosphere of terror spread through the air.
Jeanne had already stepped down without anyone noticing.
Fang Li was the only one Fang Li the entire hall.
The gazes focused on Fang Li were filled with curiosity, inquiry, scrutiny, and observation, as if they were treating Fang Li like a lab rat, observing him without restraint.
However, besides these gazes, there were also some people whose gazes towards Fang Li carried a murderous intent that stung the skin.
This is where the sense of terror in the air comes from.
Without a doubt, at this moment, Fang Li was treated as prey.
Even without thinking, it's obvious that all the people in the corridor are members of I-Yuri.
These members, all possessing superhuman abilities, gathered together and focused their gazes on one person. The resulting sense of oppression was self-evident.
If it were someone else facing these superhumans, they probably wouldn't be able to move at all, their whole body covered in cold sweat, right?
There has never been anyone who could ignore this sense of terror.
However, at this very moment, it has indeed appeared.
Fang Li completely ignored the murderous aura permeating the air. While others were brazenly focusing their attention on him, he was also using the information provided by Riko to identify the true identities of the superhumans present.
Until I saw someone.
"Kinji?" Fang Li couldn't help but be surprised.
In a corner of the second-floor corridor, the person whose gaze met Fang Li's was none other than Kinji Touyama.
Kinji Touyama gave Fang Li a helpless, bitter smile, but said nothing and stood there quietly.
Beside him stood a stunningly beautiful girl who seemed to have stepped out of someone's dream.
It was Kana Touyama.
Seeing this, Fang Li finally understood.
I understand why Kinji Touyama is here.
Just as Riko said, some outstanding armed detectives who were thought to be dead were actually kidnapped to I-Yu and joined this place.
Clearly, Kana Touyama is one of them.
However, Kana Touyama did not actually want to join I-Yu.
Otherwise, Kana Touyama wouldn't have wanted to kill Aria.
Aria and the leader of I-Yo must have some kind of relationship.
Kana Touyama wanted to kill Aria in order to prevent Aria from coming into contact with I-Yu.
Therefore, when discussing the assassination attempt on Aria Kana Touyama and Kinji Touyama consistently used the concept of "righteousness."
However, Fang Li's appearance brought a turning point to the situation.
Kinji Touyama would act with Kana Touyama, probably because he knew this.
"Then let me take a look..."
"Who exactly is the leader of the infamous I-You clan...?"
Fang Li turned his gaze forward.
There is an entrance there.
Fang Li has already heard it.
Footsteps were approaching.
As the footsteps drew closer, the owner's voice rang out.
"Although there were some slight deviations, just as I deduced, you have successfully arrived here, Fang Li- jun."
As these words were spoken, a figure slowly walked in from the entrance in front, coming into Fang Li's view.
"————!"
When Fang Li saw the person's full appearance, even his dark eyes narrowed, his pupils shrinking to the size of pinpoints.
A handsome man walked out from the entrance in front.
He was wearing a coat.
He was wearing a detective hat.
He had a pipe dangling from his mouth.
His eyes gleamed with wisdom.
Fang Li couldn't possibly not know this person.
Just over an hour ago, Fang Li had seen the other party's photo in Aria's Armed Detective Handbook.
"Sherlock... Holmes..."
He was active on the stage more than 100 years ago in England history and is known as the world's strongest detective and the originator of armed detective work.
Aria's great-grandfather.
Yes.
The leader of I-Yo, known as the Professor, is Sherlock Holmes.
"I have been waiting for this day for a long time."
The famous detective named Sherlock flashed a dashing smile and made this declaration.
"Today is the day to turn a new page in history."
