Conan's All-Member Force Enhancement Plan
Chapter 476 Public Opinion Reversal
The polluted air filled everyone's nose and body, and the dim sky made it impossible for people to even see each other clearly.
But Hiroki Sawada's loud and firm voice reached everyone's ears.
A man who claimed to be Professor James Moriarty's subordinate said that the professor was a notorious evil person who had done a lot of bad things, and he wanted to identify him.
There are a lot of people gathered here now, and everyone is following the herd mentality. They think that with so many people here, even if they just come to watch the fun, they won't be accurately retaliated against afterwards. So a few brave ones hide in the crowd and shout, asking Hiroki Sawada to give an example.
Hiroki Sawada had long ago sought advice from Conan Edogawa, and now he loudly told him everything Moriarty had done.
The crowd was in an uproar.
Karasuma Renya's expression remained unchanged. He smiled and raised his voice: "You called me here and accused me of a crime in public. I wonder what evidence you have produced? You are not trying to slander me out of nothing, are you?"
Hiroki Sawada and Conan Edogawa looked at Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya. When they were resting at Colonel Moran's residence, they found some evidence proving Colonel Moran's crime. However, those evidences could not kill Moriarty. It could only be said that they were all related to him in some way.
However, this is not a court, and the public does not need very concrete evidence. Reasonable associations and speculations are enough.
After Hiroki Sawada and Conan Edogawa took the evidence away, they handed it over to Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya for safekeeping. After all, it was he who would identify Moriarty in the end.
Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya noticed the gazes of Hiroki Sawada and Conan Edogawa, and hurriedly reached for the bag he brought with him.
Then, nothing happened.
Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya was shocked: "Where's my bag?!"
Edogawa Conan and Sawada Hiroki looked in the direction of his movements and found that there was nothing where he touched.
It was already late at night, the lights were dim, and visibility was very low. Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya was so anxious that he almost fell to the ground to look for it: "Where is my bag? I clearly put it next to me. Where did it go? It's not here, it's not here, it's not here..."
The eyes of Edogawa Conan and Sawada Hiroki became serious.
The evidence was stolen.
The two looked around but found nothing because the light was too dim.
The two looked at Moriarty, and seeing that he had a wise look on his face, they couldn't help but feel annoyed.
No wonder they were so confident, it turned out they had been prepared and sent someone to steal their evidence.
Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya searched around but couldn't find the bag containing the evidence. He was so anxious that he almost cried. He lowered his head with a guilty conscience: "What should I do? I, I lost my things..."
Hiroki Sawada and Conan Edogawa gritted their teeth and said nothing.
Karasuma Renya looked at the three of them with a smile and lowered his voice: "It seems that she really doesn't intend to help you."
Edogawa Conan and Tsuburaya Mitsuhiko both looked confused, who?
Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya came close to Conan Edogawa and whispered, "Who is he talking about?"
Edogawa Conan shook his head and was about to say something to Hiroki Sawada when he saw Hiroki Sawada's expression. He frowned, thought about it, but still said nothing.
Karasuma Renya pretended to be surprised: "Oh my, it seems that you two don't know what she did, Colonel Moran, you and your companions are not always open to everything."
He raised his voice and said, "Mr. Holmes, Ms. White, I think you may have been deceived by Colonel Moran. Did he forge some specious evidence to guide you? Don't fall for his trick and slander me, a good citizen."
The people around became agitated again because of this sentence: "Is that Sherlock Holmes?"
"Sherlock Holmes? The great detective?"
"Detective? So what the three of them said is true?"
"But they haven't produced any evidence yet."
"Besides, that Sherlock Holmes looks so weak, not at all like the rumors say."
"Rumors are always a little watery. There is an old saying in Eastern China that three people make a tiger. Rumors cannot be trusted."
"Then the title of detective can't be trusted?"
"Emmm, although I can't see his face clearly, his movements do seem unreliable..."
"Who is telling the truth then?"
"There is a saying in the East China that if you don't know the truth, you won't comment. Let's wait and see."
"Okay, let's take a look."
Public support is easy to gain and easy to lose, and public opinion always reverses quickly.
The people, who had just been filled with indignation by the reasoning of Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya and the other two, now began to question the authenticity of the "detective" because of a few words from Karasuma Renya.
Conan Edogawa and Hiroki Sawada's brains were working rapidly, thinking about how to prove Moriarty's guilt without any evidence.
At this moment, a voice suddenly rang out from the crowd: "I don't know anything else, but the heir serial murder case is closely related to James Moriarty."
what?
The heir serial murder case is one of the most watched cases in recent years.
The nobles and wealthy businessmen were all in danger, while the poor people were happy to watch the show.
The victims were all from the upper class who were accustomed to bullying others in their daily lives, but after their death their bodies were thrown into the dirty and messy streets.
Moreover, even with all the power of the nobles and the wealth of the wealthy, they were unable to find any clues about the murderer. The killer came and went without a trace, and the nobles and wealthy businessmen regarded him as a vicious person and tried to avoid him as much as possible, but they were also always thinking about getting rid of him.
And those victims were basically not good at disguising themselves. They acted according to their nature in their daily lives and bullied men and women. Because of their family background and power, the oppressed people had nowhere to turn to. The death of those victims was a great relief to the poor.
The murderer was even once called "Pesticide" by the poor.
The huge contrast between the victim's situation before and after death allowed people from all walks of life to understand the case, and there was no condition for the nobles to block the news. This is also the reason why this case has attracted special attention, because the number of people who know about it is large.
Therefore, that shout in the crowd immediately attracted the attention of the people, and everyone was talking about it: "What? That case is actually related to him?!"
"Who is this lady? She looks like the daughter of a noble family. She came out to identify Moriarty, so Moriarty shouldn't be that bad, right?"
"That makes sense, Jane. Have you been secretly studying again recently? You've become more thoughtful now!"
"Jane was recently taken out by her father to look for marriage partners. I guess she heard this from those potential matchmakers."
"I think what Jane said is not necessarily true. These rich people really like to fight among themselves. Maybe it's a means of competition?"
"Wow! An, what you said makes a lot of sense!"
"That's right! I begged my mother to find a connection to send me to work for a noble lady. I even secretly listened to the class that lady was taking!"
"Really? Is your host family nice? Can you introduce me to work there?"
"That lady is very nice. I can ask them for you if they are still hiring."
"Really? Thank you, Ann!"
As the poor people talked, the topic turned to their respective livelihoods. No matter how big the incident was, their livelihood would always grab their attention first.
The wealthy nobles who didn't have to worry about survival were more focused on "identifying" the incident itself. They also knew more about the owner of the voice: "That's the younger sister of the victim whose body was dumped recently. Did she get any new information?"
"No way, what news? Why didn't we get it?"
"Could it be that some information was found on the body recently? Hey, has anyone in your family come to tell you this?"
"No, the body was just found yesterday, and we have information today? When did Scotland Yard become so efficient?"
"Isn't there still Sherlock Holmes? But come to think of it, this Holmes today is really different from when I saw him before."
"Yeah, I remember when I met Holmes before, he wasn't so... lively and childlike."
"Everyone is two-faced."
The owner of the voice in the crowd ignored the crowd's discussion and continued loudly: "Our family's business was sniped by Bruce Company before my brother's body was thrown on the street, and we suffered heavy losses! It was as if Bruce Company had known that my brother would be killed.
I went to ask other victims' families and the situations were similar.
And Bruce Company is James Moriarty's men!"
