Chapter 436 Detective Sherlock (5,000-word monthly pass)(1/2)
After Professor Baicai finished speaking, he took out an adamantine stone, which is a magic prop that can store images like a video tape.
Sherlock input a little magic power into it, and an image soon appeared.
In the picture, a goblin is holding a huge hammer that is larger than his body, with a dazzling white light coming out of his body. He raises the hammer above his head in an incredible way, leaps up in an incredible way, and then falls from a high place.
The giant hammer covered in white light hit the head of the orc skeleton in front of him, and then the scene turned into a vast white color, sacred, pure, and beautiful.
The picture ends here.
Professor Baicai slapped her hand bones on the table, then narrowed her eyes slightly and said:
"Sir Sherlock, although our contract does not state that contestants are not allowed to use the power of the Holy Light, it does not make sense from all angles. The most important thing is that these paladins of yours have already treated our school's
The students have suffered a very serious psychological shadow, and they still dare not sleep alone or go to the toilet."
"I think you misunderstood, Professor Baicai." Sherlock said very calmly without any panic:
"Personally, I deeply hate degenerate things like the Holy Light, and I can guarantee that the vast majority of my people don't like the Holy Light, and no one will have anything to do with it.
To come into contact with this kind of thing, only those depraved guys on the ground will be so keen on the Holy Light. In fact, this is a new type of weapon."
After Sherlock finished speaking, Professor Baicai pushed up her non-existent glasses, which was probably her habit during her lifetime:
"New weapons?"
"That's right, Goudan, let's demonstrate."
Sherlock shouted to Goudan, who nodded and quickly understood what Sherlock meant. He walked to the table, raised his fat little paws, and let out a pig howl:
"Aha!"
Goudan slapped his paw on the table, but the table didn't move at all.
Sherlock quickly took out some magic powder, and then drew a rune magic circle on Goudan's paw.
Goudan calmed down and looked at the table in front of him with concentration. Waves of white light quickly flashed on his arms, and then Goudan let out a pig howl again:
"Aha!"
"boom!"
This time the table broke apart.
After the performance, Goudan calmly walked back behind Sherlock. Sherlock looked at Professor Baicai with a smile:
"Professor, you see, this is how it is. There is no holy light at all. It's just that the goblin used the new weapon invented in our dungeon to show such power."
"A goblin hammering a beastman skeleton to death?"
Although Professor Baicai looked a little shaken, she looked more like she couldn't believe it.
"The new weapons look like this. I'm sorry that I can't tell you more details. After all, this is the secret of our dungeon."
Sherlock spread his hands, and Professor Baicai pushed up his non-existent glasses:
"I'm sorry, Sir Sherlock. I should ask clearly first. I will explain it to the students and their parents like this. You know, they are frightened. They are very afraid of facing the power of the Holy Light. Please understand."
"I understand 100% that no underground dweller in this world would like such depraved power."
Sherlock nodded, showing sympathy.
Professor Baicai nodded, obviously agreeing deeply, but she quickly asked:
"By the way, where is Professor Bacon? Didn't he come back with you?"
"You mean..."
"In fact, Professor Bacon has been away for almost a month. He just went to ask Lord Sherlock about the Holy Light, but it took so long. He probably went to do some unnecessary things. He should be more focused.
It’s about school, did he say when he would be back?”
Just as Professor Baicai finished speaking, Sherlock shook his head:
"Actually, we are here this time because of Professor Bacon's affairs."
"What?! Professor Bacon is missing and is most likely in danger?"
After listening to what Sherlock and the top student said, Professor Baicai had an expression of disbelief on her face. She walked around the room and continued:
"Please forgive me for being rude. It's not that I don't believe you, but this matter is really weird. Could it be that Professor Bacon wanted to help some poor female students more, so he didn't come back? He even forgot to ask Xia
Lord Locke, what’s your matter?”
"It's impossible. Although the teacher likes to help others learn about the undead, the teacher will never slack off when it comes to matters related to the college. What's more, I still have a letter of help from the teacher in my hand."
The Lich Academic Master said quickly.
"Letters don't mean anything. If he is in any danger and can still send letters, why not just write a 10,000-word request for help and tell you all the information in detail?"
Professor Baicai continued:
"I know you are worried about your teacher, but you should have some confidence in your teacher. You must know that although he is sometimes unreliable and does not take care of things, he is Professor Bacon. Although he was not as successful as you when he was young.
Achievements, but he is also a lich who is called a genius. Even if he is old and aged now, it does not mean that he is a weak lich."
"Well, I think so too. Professor Bacon's strength is still very good, so there shouldn't be any accidents. Maybe he really forgot to come back because he was tutoring the undead, but we don't rule out the possibility.
, I still hope that Professor Baicai can reflect this issue with the hospital."
Sherlock said quickly.
"I understand. If there is no news in a few days, I will tell the principal about this matter. The school will conduct some investigations. If there is news about Professor Bacon, I will inform you, Sir Sherlock, as soon as possible.
.”
After Professor Baicai finished speaking, Sherlock nodded to her, and then left with the top student and the others.
Professor Baicai looked at Sherlock's leaving figure. It was hard to tell what he was thinking in his empty eyes. After a long time, she returned to her office.
The Lich Academic Master followed Sherlock until he was far away from Professor Baicai's office. In a corridor of the Academy of the Undead, he couldn't help but ask:
"Sir Sherlock, why don't we ask the principal directly? Professor Baicai obviously doesn't have a very good relationship with Teacher Bacon, and she will most likely not tell the principal about this matter."
"It might be a good thing if you don't tell the principal."
Sherlock suddenly laughed.
"Wait a minute, Lord Sherlock, do you also think that Mr. Bacon forgot to return to school because he was tutoring others?"
The top student was stunned for a moment.
"No, how could it be? According to his complicated way of asking for help, he should be in a situation where he is being monitored and cannot guarantee his own safety. As for why he didn't tell the principal, you may not have noticed that in Professor Baicai's office
On the table, there is a letter that is exactly the same as the envelope your teacher sent you, with the words [Professor Baicai personally addresses the principal of the College of the Dead] written on the front."
Sherlock put his hands in the pockets of his black windbreaker, and there were small white flowers floating outside the window. It was probably some Lich student who felt bored during class, and then opened the window to face the magic released outside.
"And I am very sure that the possibility of this being a coincidence is very low. Because I have a good relationship with your teacher, I am very clear about the envelope usage habits of your school's public letters and Professor Bacon's personal letters."
"Lord Sherlock, do you mean that this matter has something to do with the Academy of the Dead?"
The top student frowned, feeling very worried.
"Who knows, this kind of thing can only be known after investigation, and during the investigation process, it is the most basic thing to suspect everyone."
After Sherlock finished speaking, Black Dragon Goudan, who had been listening beside him, suddenly said in surprise:
"Are you Sherlock?"
"No, that's just a TV series."
Black Cat Pineapple said quickly.
"But the protagonist has the same name as Lord Sherlock, and they are both detectives."
The parrot followed.
"No, it's still different. Sir Sherlock doesn't have Watson... I thought of it!" Black Dragon Goudan suddenly looked at the top student excitedly:
"You should be Watson! It's very suitable!"
"Wow, when you said that, I suddenly felt so bad."
The black cat Pineapple suddenly burst into laughter for some reason.
The parrot also opened his mouth wide and let out a cackle of laughter.
"Don't worry, they just watched too many TV series recently. I will slightly reduce the time they watch TV series."
Just as Sherlock finished speaking, the eyes of the black dragon, parrot and black cat suddenly widened, and they all closed their mouths.
Only the top student still had a worried look on his skull face.
"Anyway, let's start with the investigation first. Then give me the letter written by Professor Bacon to look at."
After hearing Sherlock's words, the top student quickly took out the letters from his pocket. There were a dozen letters in total, each of which had the same envelope and letter paper.
The time and date in the letter are completely inconsistent with the actual date of delivery to the top student, but they are also the most recent dates. Obviously, it is just the time of delivery to the top student that is different.
In addition, the most concerning thing is that the letter did not mention any address, but there were many secret codes.
There is one in each letter, written in code words that only the top student and Professor Bacon can understand.
For example, [Big Orange Is Most Important], [Cat in the Box], these are things that I can’t understand at all.
