If jokes were allowed, everyone who knows history would probably want to treat the Matoba before them as a joke.

After all, even if we calculate it by age, Sherlock Holmes is definitely over 150 years old.

It's not impossible that such a person is still alive today.

However, the fact that this person appears as a handsome young man makes it hard not to treat it as a joke.

Unfortunately, Fang Li won't do that.

Because, as a Main God Envoy, even though Fang Li was a newcomer, he had seen quite a few incredible things.

Compared to those things, it's not surprising that a man over 150 years old still looks like a man in his 20s.

At this moment, only one thought arose in Fang Li's mind.

"I see..." Fang Li stared intently at Sherlock and said in a low voice, "So that's why Shirayuki said that Aria shouldn't have come here?"

If Aria knew that her most revered ancestor was actually the leader of a criminal organization, and that the organization that had caused her mother to bear the guilt for hundreds of years, she would surely be devastated.

"That's a really big joke." Fang Li made no attempt to hide his sarcasm. "The world's most famous detective has become the head of a criminal organization. What a commotion that would cause!"

Upon hearing this, Sherlock smiled slightly.

That smile was just like that of a mischievous child.

Then, Sherlock said meaningfully, "It seems that Robin IV did not tell you my information because he was worried that Aria would be thrown into chaos because of me, just as I deduced."

Does this guy even know that Riko has betrayed I-Yu?

No, it should be said that it was deduced.

Moreover, they even deduced that the leader's information had not been revealed.

"So-called reasoning, although it is just a kind of analytical thinking ability, when the accuracy rate is one hundred percent, it is already equivalent to prediction." Sherlock said leisurely, "And my reasoning accuracy rate has always been one hundred percent. The accumulation over the years has developed it into an ability, so I call it Orderly Foresight."

"In other words, I foresaw all of this." Sherlock turned his gaze directly to Fang Li and smiled suddenly.

"Including the fact that you're coming here."

Fang Li fell silent.

After Jeanne brought him here, Fang Li knew that he had probably been exposed.

Otherwise, why would all the members of I-Yo have gathered here when Jeanne hadn't notified anyone along the way?

It must be because these people had already gathered together long ago.

Therefore, Fang Li had already been exposed.

However, Fang Li did not expect that he had been exposed before he even infiltrated this place.

"You are an outstanding talent, although your background is somewhat mysterious. Those who have investigated you will all have the same question: as an ordinary Chinese student studying abroad, how do you possess superhuman strength? But while I enjoy deduction, I don't like to solve everything in the world." Sherlock said with a pleasant smile.

"After all, wouldn't it be too boring if the world had no more secrets for me?"

At this moment, a transcendent and powerful aura emanated from Sherlock's words.

That kind of charisma firmly drew everyone present in, enveloping Fang Li completely.

Fang Li knew that.

This is the kind of courage that only truly great people possess.

They are neither descendants nor heirs, but heroes who are actually recorded in history.

Such a person was now standing right in front of Fang Li, causing Fang Li's mind to begin to waver.

Realizing this, Fang Li's heart tightened.

no.

This can't go on any longer.

Otherwise, he would definitely be led by the nose by Sherlock in the upcoming confrontation and become Jester dancing in his palm.

Sherlock's rhythm must be disrupted.

But what should we do?

What should I do?

How can one surpass Sherlock's Orderly Foresight and disrupt the rhythm of this all-knowing detective?

It's very simple.

Things that Sherlock could never have predicted.

What is it?

Things that do not belong to this world.

Fang Li happens to have one.

"Buzz..."

The moment Fang Li raised his head, a pair of Ice-Blue Demon Eyes suddenly appeared in his eyes.

The world in Fang Li's eyes changed the next second.

It has become a pieced-together, dilapidated world.

Death Lines, like cracks, spread across the world.

Naturally, the same applies to the superhumans standing in the corridors, including I-You.

Sherlock, of course, also possesses this quality.

However, when Fang Li saw the Death Lines on Sherlock's body, Fang Li pair of Ice-Blue Demon Eyes widened instantly.

There is no other reason.

Sherlock has far too many Death Lines on his body.

So many that they were densely packed all over his body, as if if Fang Li were to touch any part of him, he would die instantly.

Fang Li understood after seeing this.

In the world of Mystic Eyes of Death Perception, the fewer Death Lines there are, the stronger the opponent's immortality.

Conversely, the more Death Lines there are, the more vulnerable the other party is, and the closer they are to death.

Sherlock's entire body was covered with a dense network of Death Lines.

This has only one meaning.

"Have you reached the end of your rope?"

Upon hearing this, the atmosphere of the space, which had been filled with the immense presence of Sherlock, finally changed.

And for the first time, the all-knowing smile on Sherlock's face finally disappeared.

"...This is quite surprising." Sherlock said with a somewhat somber expression, "Based on my reasoning, you shouldn't have known about this at this time."

Upon hearing this, Fang Li knew.

Sherlock's rhythm was successfully disrupted by himself.

So, what should we do next?

It's very simple.

Let the chaotic rhythm come together in your own hands.

"Sherlock Holmes," Fang Li declared, looking directly at Sherlock.

"I'm going to kill you here."

The atmosphere, which had completely changed, became terrifying after Fang Li's words.

Sherlock was completely stunned.

Because Fang Li's declaration completely exceeded his reasoning.

Because armed police officers are prohibited from killing people.

Fang Li's declaration is impossible.

However, Fang Li was not lying.

"If I go easy on you, I will definitely fail."

"So, I'm going to kill you."
