The Nightless Sky Huo Le Who Miscalculated

"Noodles with bolognese, hamburgers, pork chops, cod fillets, fries, roast lamb leg..."

As Sherlock hummed a cheerful melody, the band members quickly joined in, providing simple harmonies for Sherlock's impromptu singing.

The bands that can perform the opening act for the coming-of-age ceremonies of Royal Nobles are no ordinary musicians; they naturally possess such abilities!

On the Stage, a group of armed personnel from the Truth Company rushed onto the stage and caught the food that was falling from the sky.

Even the most worldly and powerful figures in the City That Never Sleeps couldn't help but be amazed after witnessing the incredible magic show created with top-notch Item from two other worlds.

"How exactly did they do that?"

The armed men then distributed the food to the spectators at the front of the group on clean trays.

After all, although those sitting in the front row of the auditorium were also some powerful and wealthy people, the Royal Nobles all had private boxes on the second floor of the auditorium.

In this space where the most elite circles gather, they are also not free to do as they please and must consider their actions—although Sherlock on the stage is just an ordinary Commoner, he is, after all, a favorite of the Nightless Sky Family.

Therefore, there is no reason for anyone to be concerned about food safety and refuse to cooperate.

What if this was arranged by the Nightless Sky Huo Le?

What's more, these foods look really tempting.

For a moment, the auditorium was filled with praise and a joyful atmosphere.

Nightless Sky Huo Le, gently rubbed his forehead.

"Paris, you assigned him a group of Truth Company Security Department personnel, right? I see some members of the Pioneer Team in there too?"

Paris, standing behind him, quickly spoke up, "Your Excellency, I assure you... I had absolutely no idea that these Security Department were being ordered by Mr. Sherlock to do this."

After a long silence, Nightless Sky Huo Le spoke again.

"It's alright, I just didn't expect that he really just went to prepare a surprise... Now that Fire Apricot sees it, she should really like it."

"But... I thought his delay was because he had noticed the Solence Family's arrangements and was preparing a countermeasure."

As the music of Nightless Sky Huo Le played, Paris watched the auditorium lights gradually illuminate and the applause rise, and said softly, "Not necessarily... I always felt that Mr. Sherlock might have had a deeper meaning in doing this."

Nightless Sky Huo Le nodded in agreement.

Although that's what she said earlier, she didn't think Sherlock was completely unprepared at this moment.

Otherwise, she would have already taken action.

After all...

If Nightless Sky Huo Le is not mistaken, the Solence Family should prepare to make their move after Sherlock appears.

Sure enough, after Sherlock's brief but stunning Magic Show, a team of the Security Bureau suddenly pushed open the auditorium doors and entered.

"Mr. Sherlock, we have received a report alleging that you are suspected of murdering three upper-class citizens of the City That Never Sleeps," said the Bureau Chief of the Security Bureau Inner City Police Department, who was leading the team this time. He pulled out an arrest warrant, paused, and then continued, "Furthermore, according to the accusations and reports from the survivor, the middleman nicknamed 'Black Snake' Serlis Ann, you are also involved in a hired assassination case targeting Royal Nobles."

Nightless Sky Huo Le quietly watched the Stage, listening to the charges fabricated by the Security Bureau, and shook his head.

"The charges have been upgraded this time... and the Security Bureau just swaggered in like that. It seems the Solence Family isn't the only one pulling the strings."

However, Nightless Sky Huo Le remained calm, ready to watch how Sherlock would turn the tables.

Sherlock on Stage paused for a moment, then asked, "Where's the evidence? This time it's not just the hotel check-in records, is it?"

The Security Bureau Chief sneered, "Of course we have evidence—although you used disguise techniques, avoided the Camera, and still broke into the house through the window, we can reconstruct and analyze your movement trajectory through your footprints on the balcony—more importantly, you left behind a large amount of DNA evidence when you were moving around inside the house, especially when you broke the glass, and that evidence matches the bloodstains on the clothes you changed out of when you were injured at Wanjin Heavenly Seat."

"Even if you are innocent, you are now the prime suspect, and we have the right to detain you in the Security Bureau."

Upon hearing the Bureau Chief the Security Bureau's resounding speech, the surrounding Noble erupted in uproar.

"What's going on?!"

"Could it really be Sherlock?!"

While it might seem unlikely at first glance that Sherlock was involved in hiring assassins to kill Royal Nobles, it does seem somewhat plausible given his recent activities.

His involvement seems like an answer that is both reasonable and unexpected.

Sherlock on stage fell silent.

The Security Bureau Chief pressed him again. "Mr. Sherlock, please cooperate with the investigation."

Hearing the interrogation again, the Detective on Stage looked up, flicked his hat, and a glint of shrewdness flashed in his eyes.

"We are cooperating with the investigation, but there was a major flaw in your statement just now; there's a weak link in the chain of evidence..."

As he spoke, Sherlock suddenly turned and ran away.

"Stop this guy!"

He shouted, and members of the Truth Company's Security Department immediately rushed forward and blocked the Security Bureau Chief.

However, two skilled fighters who had been lying in wait behind the Stage rushed towards him and instantly pinned him to the ground.

Sherlock fell to the ground and then shouted.

"What do you want?! I'm here to attend Your Excellency Fire Apricot!"

"Lord Huo Le, save me!"

He shouted, causing an uproar in the auditorium as everyone watched the members of the Truth Company's Security Department and the Security Bureau wrestling together.

Both sides exercised great restraint, taking into account the current situation, and did not use any weapons—it was purely hand-to-hand combat and grappling.

Huo Le, who was on the second floor of Nightless Sky Huo Le, stared at this scene for five seconds before speaking.

"Tell your men to stop, Paris —stop this farce!"

Paris nodded immediately and picked up the communicator again—this time he got through.

"Stiller, what stupid thing are you doing? Stop it right now!"

The fighting downstairs eventually subsided, Nightless Sky Huo Le walked downstairs with a cold face.

"So you're the Bureau Chief of the Security Bureau? Who gave you the authority to arrest our guests at my sister's Birthday Banquet, on our Nightless Sky Family?"

She asked coldly, and Larry Solence of the Solence Family stood up. "Your Excellency Nightless Sky Huo Le, this is an arrest in accordance with regulations and laws..."

"Mr. Larry, do you think the laws of the City That Never Sleeps and the regulations of the Security Bureau are above the rules of the Nightless Sky Family?"

"Or is it that your Solence Family is to take responsibility for this?"

"Nightless Sky Huo Le spoke coldly," a lazy voice then rang out.

"My dear Huo Le, Lord Larry was just helping me out... I was the one who invited the Security Bureau —ultimately, this is still a family matter of the Nightless Sky Family, there's no need to make a big deal out of it!"

Nightless Sky Huo Le looked at the unpredictable man with black hair, red eyes, and a crooked mouth who had stepped out from the Solence Family's ranks, and his expression darkened further.

"Nightless Sky Huo Xian, has your brain been completely ruined by eating too many Great Wilderness herbs? Now you're helping outsiders against our own? You've only been on the payroll for a couple of days at the Universal Chamber of Commerce, and you really think you're one of the Solence Family?"

Nightless Sky Huo Xian smiled and said, "I'm not helping outsiders against my own family. I just hope that you, sister, won't harbor a serious criminal and bring shame to our family."

"If I had to say... I do have my own selfish motives—I never hid it from the last family meeting, but I feel that Huo Shu is more suitable to succeed Mother than you!"

"Moreover, I heard that this wild man without even a title is planning to lay a hand on Fire Apricot, who is the apple of our Nightless Sky Family's eye. How can that be allowed?"
