"Sherlock Holmes!!! I knew Sherlock Holmes was a real person!"

Before Hikigaya and the others could react, the people in the everyday world went wild.

That's a world where everyday life is a mix of detective stories, where detectives hold a very high status, and naturally, there are countless fans of Sherlock Holmes.

Currently, it specifically refers to a certain high school... well, elementary school student, who has fallen into an extremely excited state. Shinichi Kudo, who goes by the pseudonym Conan Edogawa, is practically glued to the TV, wishing he could jump into the screen and travel to another world to meet his idol.

That's Sherlock Holmes!

Conan Edogawa's vision was clouded by his idol; he saw through Aoki and his friends' predicament at a glance and righteously accepted their request, willing to keep the secret for them.

This filter must be a hundred layers thick, completely obscuring the rational mind of a detective.

He even went so far as to try to justify Holmes' existence and behavior. Although Holmes is a fictional character, most people believe that Holmes was a real person. Conan Doyle simply recorded his stories (including Conan himself). The Queen of England even knighted Holmes. In addition, as the crystallization and origin of detective work, it wouldn't be unreasonable for him to appear as a heroic spirit!

"Conan, don't sit so close to the TV. You wear glasses, be careful your nearsightedness gets worse." Ran Mouri hugged Conan and pulled him a little further away from the TV.

Normally he might be distracted, but at this moment, Conan Edogawa was completely oblivious to his close relationship with Ran. He flapped his little arms and legs, exclaiming, "Damn it, why don't they play the previous video? I want to see the real Sherlock Holmes!"

For this, Conan Edogawa was filled with regret. If he had known that he could meet Sherlock Holmes by participating in the Holy Grail War, he would have wanted to sign up. Maybe he could have avoided the tragedy of becoming a primary school student. Most importantly, there was Sherlock Holmes!

Even if Taigong Wang didn't invite him, it wouldn't matter. He knew King Arthur's true identity and could always try his luck!

After all, before Eriri's identity as Master was revealed on the live stream, the Sawamura family's security wasn't that outrageous. Back then, if Shinichi Kudo had gone to find her, he might have actually been able to.

"Just like Shinichi, they both love Sherlock Holmes so much." Ran Mouri's feelings were complicated.

Oops!

Conan Edogawa quickly laughed it off: "Because Shinichi-nii told me stories about Sherlock Holmes before, and Sherlock Holmes is really amazing!"

"Shinichi too, how could he tell these stories to a child?" Ran Mouri complained, without any suspicion.

Then, Ran Mouri's gaze suddenly softened: "I wonder if Shinichi saw this scene. He likes Sherlock Holmes so much. If Holmes really appeared, he would definitely be very happy."

"Of course, Shinichi-nii will be happy!" Conan Edogawa nodded quickly, after all, he himself was in there.

……

"Sherlock Holmes!!" Hachiman Hikigaya was also surprised. Although it wasn't obvious on the surface, as someone who had merged with the world of Detective Conan, he was inevitably a fan of mystery novels. "Is it really Sherlock Holmes?"

Even Shishi Jie Li looked surprised. He wasn't a fan of Sherlock Holmes, though of course, as a Japanese person who had lived in England for so long, it was impossible for him not to like him. But what surprised him was that a fictional character like Sherlock Holmes could be summoned as a Heroic Spirit? And a Ruler at that! This was the first time he had ever seen anything like it in all the Holy Grail Wars.

However, even Shishigaki Jieli had to admit that, given Holmes's fame, he was definitely among the highest-ranking Heroic Spirits, and even Joan of Arc and King Arthur might not be able to match him.

“That’s right,” Aoki Makoto confirmed. “What, want an autograph? I have several here.”

At that moment, Makoto Aoki felt as if he were being scorched by the intense gaze.

"No way," Makoto Aoki was somewhat surprised. He knew that Conan had a high status as a detective in the world of crossover and that mystery novels were popular, but it turned out that the male and female protagonists of other anime also liked it this much?

Although he also quite liked Sherlock Holmes, that's a different matter.

Surely no one who likes detective novels wouldn't like Sherlock Holmes, right?

"Please give me two copies!"

"Please give me three copies!"

Hachiman Hikigaya and Eriri exchanged a glance, both feeling a little awkward.

Kaguya Shinomiya and Miku Nakano also showed unusual expressions of embarrassment: "Me too..."

I could tell from their eyes that they all wanted multiple copies. After all, they all have family and friends, and even if they're not die-hard Sherlock Holmes fans, these pieces still have considerable collectible value.

Makoto Aoki chuckled and pulled out all the autographs he had on him: "It's okay, I'll keep one for myself and give one to the editor." After all, he had received a lot of help from the editor.

Makoto Aoki's editor, Yu Nakamura, burst into tears, saying, "I'll never complain about your late submissions again, Mr. Aoki!"

"If that's not enough, there'll be another chance when we meet Mr. Holmes next time."

Eriri thought for a moment and muttered, "Then I'll have to get an extra one, since Ran is also there. Although I don't really like that guy, he is Ran's childhood friend, so I'll get one for him too."

Conan Edogawa was already so envious that he wanted to rush in and grab an autograph, but then he heard Eriri's mutterings.

Wait a minute, isn't the blonde girl's friend Ran? And isn't Ran's childhood friend him?

Conan Edogawa was so moved that he burst into tears.

I was wrong, blonde... Eh, Eriri, Conan Edogawa finally remembered her name. You are my best friend for life!

Conan Edogawa vowed that next time he saw Eriri dressed suspiciously, he would pretend he didn't see her!

Unless she committed a crime!
