Oritis in the world of Detective Conan

Chapter 91: The Apocalypse of Sherlock Holmes (Epilogue)

After seeing the statistics of Minerva's serve landing points, Conan realized that she was using her serve to create Braille, trying to ask for help, so he asked Apollo to come out.

After explaining the situation to Apollo, Conan borrowed his ticket.

In the stadium, in order for Minerva to receive the signal, Conan had no choice but to say: "Minerva, I'm here to help you. I'm Sherlock Holmes' apprentice!"

After hearing the information given by Conan, Minerva changed the way she served the ball, and Conan secretly memorized the newly appeared Braille characters.

However, he didn't expect that his voice would attract another person.

"Hello, Holmes' apprentice." A somewhat familiar male voice came from behind Conan.

Conan looked back and saw the wax figure artist (in casual clothes and without his sister) standing behind him.

"Eh? Mr. Philip?" Conan was so nervous that he forgot that he had never seen the wax sculptor in real life.

The wax figure sculptor laughed: "Do you know me?"

Conan, realizing the problem, immediately excused himself: "Ah, that older sister who was drinking alone on Murray Mountain told me."

"Really?" The wax figure still smiled.

Conan was sweating coldly at this time. Although this man was killed directly by Jack in the "Cocoon", he was sure that this Mr. Philip would not be easier to deal with than that Jack.

"That Miss Glass has been asking for help from outside since the beginning. You noticed, right?"

At this point, Conan felt like he had no choice but to go ahead and say, "Yes, it was 'HELP' before, but now she's delivering a new message."

"Really? Then you have to observe carefully, otherwise your apprentice will bring shame to Sherlock Holmes' reputation." After saying this, the wax sculptor stood still.

Conan tried to ignore the wax artist behind him and returned his attention to Minerva's Braille.

"'GAME', 'SET', 'DEATH', 'MOM'." After memorizing these four words, Conan realized that Hades' target from the beginning was not Minerva, but Minerva's mother. And the doll in Minerva's mother's hand, given by a fan, was probably the bomb.

Thinking of this, Conan ran into the corridor and called Apollo, and told him not to make any extraordinary moves, otherwise the bomb might explode directly.

"Then the only way to prevent this possible tragedy is to bring Hades to justice."

From Apollo, Conan learned that his mother always sat in the shade of the ordinary audience seats. In that case, Hades, who would film the moment of the crime head-on, would most likely sit in the sunny place opposite.

At this moment, there was a commotion inside the stadium. It was raining, and the roof had to be closed. The spectators poured into the corridor. Minerva's match was about to enter the final round.

By letting Minerba engage in a tug-of-war with her opponent and observing the audience's reactions, Conan finally found Hades's location.

"Holmes' apprentice, the person you are looking for is not the same as the one I am looking for." The wax figure's voice sounded again.

Conan: Oh no, I forgot this guy was still here. If we find Hades, then...

"If we don't go find him now, time will run out." The wax artist said this lightly and then took the initiative to make way, not keeping up with Conan's pace.

At the entrance of the venue, the guard stopped Conan because his ticket could not enter that area. At the critical moment, Kudo Yukiko appeared in front of Conan and handed him the ticket that could enter the venue.

Conan came behind Hades and was about to use the watch tranquilizer gun, but was recognized by the enthusiastic audience. This attracted Hades' attention, and Hades stood up in a panic.

Minerva, who also noticed the commotion here, realized that the man who stood up was Hades, so she shot the ball with a powerful volley and hit him right between the eyebrows. Conan then kicked him again.

However, the wax artist made some changes to Hades' disguise, so that Hades did not lose his ability to move immediately. He showed a ferocious look and pressed the bomb's explosion button in Conan's shocked eyes.

However, boiling wax began to leak out of the remote control that controlled the bomb. Hades realized something and immediately threw away the remote control and ran away.

Conan followed Hades closely and finally saw Hades stopped in an empty passage.

"Damn it, why did the remote control malfunction? Did that man do something to it?" Hades gritted his teeth, extremely angry.

Although he didn't know why the bomb didn't explode, Conan still stood up and said, seeing that Hades was at the end of his rope: "Your plan has failed, Hades. The person who really killed your mother was you who gambled away all your savings!"

Hearing Conan's words, Hades went crazy: "What do you know? If she had won at that time, my mother would not have died! I must let her also experience the pain of losing a loved one!"

"And you, you damn kid who calls yourself Holmes' apprentice!" Hades roared and pounced on Conan.

Conan was a little slow and didn't have time to dodge Hades' attack. Hades pinned him to the ground and grabbed his throat.

Just when Conan felt suffocated, Hades suddenly let out a cry of pain, let go of Conan and stepped back.

"Ahhh!" The hot wax seeped out from his disguise, and Hades immediately wanted to tear off his disguise.

Before he could do anything, the wax sculptor appeared in the passage and poured a new round of wax on him.

"You didn't even notice the flaw in your own disguise. You're so useless." The wax artist mocked Hades.

"Your revenge is illogical and your methods are quite despicable. It's far inferior to the one I've met."

"But at least you can be displayed in my wax museum as an ordinary work of art."

"The name 'Hades' is truly fitting for an eternal rest in Hell."

Soon, the melted wax covered Hades' entire body and slowly solidified, and a wax figure appeared in front of Conan.

"Oh, Holmes' apprentice, you probably don't want to appear in my work."

"After all, if he hadn't let you go, you would have become part of my work. Then the title of this work would have become 'The Criminal Who Tried to Kill Holmes's Apprentice'."

"Wait a minute, what exactly are you...cough cough cough." Conan, who had just recovered from suffocation, spoke with difficulty.

"It's quite a mess here. Luckily I got here just in time," the perfumer and the photographer approached. "But I'm afraid you won't be able to take your work away. The police are here."

The wax artist frowned when he heard this: "It must be Kudo Yusaku who did it. He actually asked the police to be on standby at all times."

The photographer comforted the wax figure: "Don't be too depressed, I have been taking good pictures. At least you can appreciate my photos."

The perfumer sprayed Conan with forgetfulness incense, making him forget the perfumer and the photographer's visit, and then retreated with the bartender who had already drunk a lot in Murray Mountain.

Afterwards, the police arrested Hades who was frozen in a wax figure. Conan told his parents that it was done by people from the Oritis organization. Kudo Yusaku said that he knew very little about this organization.

Thanks to Haibara, the Kudo couple brought Conan a medicine that could change back, so that he would not be stranded in a foreign country.
