The Daily Life of a Salted Fish Assassin in Anime Crossovers

"What...what do you want to do?"

"What do I want to do?" Toshihiko's expression turned somewhat sickly.

"Sherlock Holmes is the world's top detective, and it's because of people like you that you casually compare those third-rate, trashy detectives to Holmes. And you even dared to write and publish books that insult Holmes and Irene Adler. People like you are better off dead!"

However, just as he was about to kill Jin Gu Yuzhi, Jiang Hang's voice came to his ears from the garage door.

"As a 'true Sherlock Holmes fan,' did Sherlock Holmes teach you how to kill?"

Chapter 127: Chapter 126: Let you calm down.

When Hu Shiyan decided to attend this gathering, he had already made preparations.

He believed his reasoning ability surpassed that of so-called famous detectives in society. As long as everything went according to his plan, unless Sherlock Holmes appeared in the world, no one would discover that he was the one who did it.

To his surprise, even though he had already started thinking about how to disguise himself, he was discovered before he could take action.

What upset him even more was that the person who found him was the very "third-rate" detective he had just mocked that very night.

Damn it, why is this guy coming to the garage so late?

Moreover, this guy arrived precisely at the exact moment when he took out the prepared knife to kill Kanaya Hiroyuki.

Now, no matter what he says or does, he cannot hide his intention to kill Hiroyuki Kanaya.

Unless he can kill everyone currently in the garage and then perfectly cover up their deaths.

But seeing that Jiang Hang was followed by a young man, and that he only had a knife, it was impossible for him to capture all three of them at the same time.

In other words, his meticulously prepared plan was over before it even began.

Just as he was stunned by Jiang Hang's appearance, Jin Gu Yuzhi seemed to have found a savior and ran behind Jiang Hang, trembling all over.

"Mr. Jiang Hang, you must have heard everything just now, right? This guy, this guy tried to kill me!" He pointed at the "potential murderer" with a terrified expression.

Jiang Hang nodded to the other person to reassure them not to be afraid. Heiji Hattori and Conan followed behind Jiang Hang, looking at Kento Toto, who had a ferocious and sickly appearance, with complicated expressions.

Conan's feelings were complicated. Because he was also a Sherlock Holmes fan, he found it hard to believe that Kento Toju had developed the idea of ​​murder because of Sherlock Holmes.

He read Hiroyuki Kanaya's book. Although he felt that Kanaya's interpretation of Sherlock Holmes did not align with his own ideas, Conan only considered it a difference in opinion. If he didn't like it, he could simply not read the book. At most, he only complained to Jiang Hang a few times.

Unexpectedly, Kento Toto would want to kill Hiroyuki Kanaya because of this.

As Jiang Hang said, Sherlock Holmes was a detective, not a murderer.

Holmes would feel compassion for those poor prisoners, and in an era when laws and regulations were not yet perfect, he might even let go of some prisoners he believed did not deserve to die.

But people like Kento Toto wouldn't evoke any pity in Holmes.

His current behavior doesn't qualify him as a fan of Sherlock Holmes at all; he's just a pathetic wretch obsessed with Holmes.

As for Hattori Heiji, while he was also feeling complicated about Toto Kento's motives for murder, he was also shocked by Jiang Hang's terrifying observational skills.

He genuinely thought Jiang Hang wanted to play a "case analysis game" with him, so he seriously analyzed the motive and location of the murder for a long time. However, throughout the process, he rationally believed that it was just a game and did not actually think that a murder would happen in the hotel.

But when Hattori Heiji saw that Toju Kento actually took out a knife to kill Kanaya Hiroyuki, he realized that Jiang Hang probably had once again sensed that a case would happen in advance, which was why he deliberately suggested "playing a game" with him.

If Jiang Hang hadn't discovered it in advance, Jin Gu Yuzhi would probably have been killed by Toji Kenji by now!

The last time Jiang Hang stopped Ikemura Kimie from killing someone at the diplomat's house, he didn't notice anything amiss. Even after it was all over, he was still enjoying his afternoon tea and felt that there was some coincidence involved in Jiang Hang stopping Ikemura Kimie from killing her husband. The things he said to Jiang Hang at that time also seemed to carry a hint of resentment.

At that time, he also felt that his cultivation was not up to par. Although he might be a little far from Jianghang, he believed that he would be able to catch up soon.

This time, however, Jiang Hang had told him in advance through a game what might happen here, and he stayed by Jiang Hang's side the whole time, but he still couldn't react.

Is this the strength of Jianghang?

Hattori Heiji felt that the distance between the two of them had suddenly increased significantly, and he could not even see Jiang Hang's back when he looked over.

Jiang Hang was unaware that Hattori Heiji now regarded him as a man whose back he could no longer even see.

He is now slowly approaching Toto Kento, and at the same time, he asks him a question again.

"Would Sherlock Holmes kill someone just because their ideas differ from his own? Is he that kind of person?"

Hu Shiyan seemed completely unmoved by Jiang Hang's words.

"I absolutely cannot forgive this guy who wants to ruin Sherlock Holmes' reputation!"

He pointed the knife at Jiang Hang, screaming hysterically, "And you, a third-rate detective! The cases you've encountered are nothing compared to the cases Sherlock Holmes solved, yet those fools dare to compare you to Sherlock Holmes. Those guys don't understand the greatness of Sherlock Holmes at all!"

"Holmes' reputation belongs to Holmes himself, what does it have to do with you?" Jiang Hang asked the person in front of him, Toshi Kenji.

Hu Shiyan's face immediately turned extremely ugly.

Jiang Hang continued, "I only know that the real Sherlock Holmes would not want to kill someone just because they have ruined his reputation. Haven't you realized yet that your actions are what are ruining the reputation of other Sherlock Holmes fans?"

Hu Shiyan's eyes turned red; Jiang Hang's words had completely struck a nerve.

Seeing the other person's expression, Jiang Hang didn't stop: "You still haven't answered my question, have you? Is it because you don't know how to answer it, or are you getting angry because I hit a nerve?"

"You guys who have insulted and damaged Sherlock Holmes' reputation, you all should die!" At this moment, he had completely lost his mind. The method of covering up the murder was no longer important. He now only wanted to kill all the guys who "damaged Sherlock Holmes' reputation"!

He has long since gone to extremes, and even if the real Sherlock Holmes appeared in front of him, he probably wouldn't be able to wake up.

The next moment, just as he approached Jiang Hang, he felt as if Jiang Hang in front of him had turned into a gust of wind.

Then he felt as if his whole body had been turned upside down, and when he came to his senses and felt the pain in his body, Jiang Hang's foot was already on his head.

"You should calm down now," Jiang Hang asked the man lying on the ground, "If you've calmed down, can you answer the questions I just asked you?"

"If you feel you're still not calm enough, I'll help you calm down a bit more. You shouldn't have any objections, right?"

Chapter 128: Chapter 127: The Holmes Fan Murder Case Ends

Jiang Hang is a peace-loving person.

Most of the time, he likes to reason with people.

To be honest, he was actually quite curious about what was going through the mind of Kento Toto, this extreme Sherlock Holmes fan.

Unfortunately, Toto Kento doesn't seem to be someone who listens to reason.

"As long as I can wipe out all those guys, even if my life ends tonight, I can face death with a clear conscience!" Even though he was already being trampled on, this guy could still recite a line from Sherlock Holmes' "The Final Problem".

This line is spoken by Sherlock Holmes to Moriarty in the story.

In the story, in order to destroy Moriarty, Holmes planned to take him down with him.

He truly is an extreme Sherlock Holmes fan.

In his own words, he was Sherlock Holmes, and those who insulted Holmes became Moriarty in the stories.

Listening to Toshiyuki's illogical and even abusive words, Jiang Hang knew that he wouldn't calm down anytime soon, so he could only tell him to shut up for a while.

The method to silence a person is also very simple: just make them lose consciousness, and they will definitely be unable to speak.

"This guy is beyond saving. I don't like wasting time on people like him. Let the police handle this kind of thing."

After Jiang Hang delivered a clean and decisive elbow strike, the entire garage fell silent.

Toshihiko claimed to know Sherlock Holmes, but judging from his exasperated expression at the end, he showed absolutely no trace of Holmes.

Without much effort, while Toto Kento was still unconscious, Kanaya Hiroyuki found ropes in the hotel and tied Toto Kento up securely.

They have already called the police, but because this place is quite far from the city, even the police probably won't be able to arrive until tomorrow morning.

Hiroyuki Kanaya wouldn't dare to rest easy unless he brought Toshihiro, who had completely gone to extremes, under control.

Even now, Jin Gu Yuzhi still looks terrified. If Jiang Hang hadn't heard the commotion in the garage, he probably would have lost his life here today.

Although he was a rather vain person, he only showed off in the circle of Sherlock Holmes fans, but he never expected that it would almost bring him death.

Looking at Toju Kento, who was still unconscious, he still couldn't understand: "I'd interacted with him before on the forum, and I thought he was a really nice person, which is why I invited him to this gathering. I never imagined he'd been putting on an act all along..."

“When there are many people in a circle, all sorts of oddballs will appear. He thinks he is the closest to Sherlock Holmes, and at the same time feels that he should punish those who destroy or distort the image of Sherlock Holmes in his mind. There are actually people like this in every circle, but he is just the most extreme one,” Jiang Hang patted his shoulder, “You don’t need to think too much. Just keep an eye on this guy before the police arrive.”

Hiroyuki Kanaya sighed, "It seems I won't dare to hold parties like this again..."

With such a major incident occurring at this fan gathering, it was naturally impossible for it to continue.

Although it was already past midnight, most of the people who participated in the gathering were still in their rooms working on the 1000 problems. Soon, after being notified by Hiroyuki Kanaya, they found out what had happened that night.

When they learned that Kento Toto had almost killed Hiroyuki Kanaya because he was dissatisfied with Kanaya's interpretation of Sherlock Holmes, most people looked extremely surprised.

What Jiang Hang found somewhat ironic was that, compared to the loss of life of Hiroyuki Kanaya, several so-called "Sherlock Holmes fans" were not concerned about the near-murder, but rather that the gathering had to be canceled and they would no longer be able to obtain the first edition of "A Study in Scarlet".

Perhaps in these people's hearts, a human life cannot compare to that treasured book.

Meanwhile, Toto Kento's girlfriend, Oki Ayako, appeared quite indifferent, as if she had known all along that Toto Kento would do such a thing.

“That’s the kind of person he is. In our Detective Association, if anyone has a different opinion about Sherlock Holmes than he does, he will humiliate them or even force them out of the association.”

“I always felt that this man might do something even more extreme in the future, but I never expected that day to come so soon. If I had known earlier, I shouldn’t have come to this party with this man,” the woman said without hesitation, distancing herself from her relationship with Kento Toto.

Jiang Hang did not participate in the discussion among these people; he only felt that it was a good thing that Jin Gu Yuzhi decided not to hold any more gatherings in the future.

These "carefully selected" Sherlock Holmes fans, whom Hiroyuki Kanaya calls the best in all of Japan, are by no means normal.

Even if he hadn't run into Toto Kento this time, if things continued like this, something bad would have happened sooner or later.

Conan had already suffered a blow from Kento Toju, and now the behavior of these Sherlock Holmes fans dealt him another heavy blow.

Judging from Conan's appearance, it will probably take him several days to recover.

The police arrived the next morning. The officers were the familiar Inspector Megure and Wataru Takagi. Although the area was some distance from downtown Tokyo, it was still under the jurisdiction of the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department.

After greeting Inspector Megure, the police took the lifeless Kento Toto back to the police station. The victim, Hiroyuki Kanaya, and the organizer of the case, Hang Jiang, also had to go back to the police station to give statements related to the case.

As for the other participants in the gathering, since the gathering was canceled and they couldn't get the book, they had no intention of staying there any longer. After being questioned by the police, they returned to Tokyo in the same car they had come in.

Based on Hu Shiyan's behavior in this case, it was an attempted murder. It remains to be seen how much more the police can extract from him. Given his extreme personality, this may not be the first time he has committed such a crime.

As he walked out of the police station, Jin Gu Yuzhi solemnly handed Jiang Hang his treasured first edition of "A Study in Scarlet".

"Mr. Jiang Hang, if it weren't for you, I probably would have died last night. I feel that only this book can barely express my gratitude to you, so please accept it!"

Chapter 129: Hattori Heiji's Suspicion

Jiang Hang originally wanted to refuse the gift, after all, this book was a treasure of Jin Gu Yuzhi, and moreover, his art museum had another version that was even more precious than the one in Jin Gu Yuzhi's possession.

According to Hiroyuki Kanaya, he was strictly speaking just a fan of detective novels in the past. He only pretended to be a Sherlock Holmes fan because he obtained the book by chance and out of his vanity. He held Sherlock Holmes fan gatherings time and time again to show off his treasured possession to others.
