Chapter 413 Emma the Succubus
Whether it was Avalon, Star Antimony, or Iris, they actually tended not to apprehend the spies immediately after finding them. Rather, they would follow the trail and try to find more evidence, or even in turn, control the information that the other party passed back.

And when their own spies overseas were captured, they would immediately capture some of the spies that had long been included in their surveillance and conduct hostage exchanges with the other party.

The spies are obliged to keep the interrogation as secret as possible during the interrogation, and the authorities behind the spies are obliged to ransom the spies who were captured alive back.

Normally this exchange is one for one, but if an important spy is captured one for two or even one for three can be demanded.

Sherlock kept Watson, though, not because of his personal relationship with Dr. Watson.

Rather, it was because of something else that was important and known to the Queen.

That is, Dr. Watson was a Restorationist from the Narcissus Territory. And the Duchy of Narcissus had a fairly good relationship with Avalon, and the Restorationists on their side were one of the more supportive forces in Avalon. This is also the reason why Iris will use “Operation Stop the Bleeding” against Avalon.

In other words, Dr. Watson’s son Andrei is actually a double agent.

When Dr. Watson sent Andre to the Chamber of Secrets, he had connections. His immediate dispatch to Avalon was also planned by his father, Dr. Watson,……, so that he could send information to Narcissus Duchy from Avalon more conveniently and not be discovered so easily by the people of the “Chamber of Secrets”.

But in the last few years, the political atmosphere on the other side of Star Antimony has gradually become tense. Some time ago, alchemists and demon scholars fought directly, even murder in the street. The superior who would take care of Andrei has now been expelled from the Chamber in the political struggle.

Under these circumstances, to send Andre back to Star Antimony would be tantamount to killing him – since the odds were that he wouldn’t be able to pass a lie detector test now.

As confident as Detective Watson was, he actually failed the Avalon test at all.

Andrei had always thought that he had his father’s “spell” on him to protect him from detection.

But there was no such thing. Or rather, the spell was called “favors” and “benefits.”

Because Watson’s intelligence gathering was so obvious and unscrupulous, the Inspector General’s Office had already targeted him.

The information that Detective Watson sent back would be intercepted halfway by the Inspectorate, and only after confirming that there was no problem would it be sent out again.

Every time a spy channel is activated, it increases the risk of exposure and costs a huge amount of money. Therefore, unless the information is particularly important, the amount of information sent back at one time cannot be too much.

Therefore, the “secret room” will train the spies to analyze what they have seen and heard, and try to analyze the atmosphere of the big event from some data and details, and then summarize the possible speculation and send it back.

Because many spies are sent out at the same time, there’s no need to worry about bias – the multiple speculations gathered at the same time can often pinpoint a deeper picture of the event.

Of all the spies from the “back room”, Detective Watson tends to come up with the most outrageous conclusions.

But the Inspector General’s Office will also deliberately fit his bizarre deductions like a second-rate speculative novel, and find ways to make Watson’s fabricated disinformation turn into real information.

Because of this ……

It could be said that Detective Watson was protected by the efforts of the Avalonians to not be recalled by Star Antimony because of too much garbage intelligence and misinformation being sent back, and was still able to use the resources from the Star Antimony side.

When Sherlock was investigating “Professor Moriarty” and “Lloyd’s Register”, he found out from Watson’s channel.

Because the relationship between them was not bad, Sherlock did not have to work hard to get this information out.

If through normal channels to investigate, Sherlock absolutely nothing to find out.

With Professor Moriarty’s identity, I’m afraid that when Sherlock first began to try to investigate, “Sherlock is investigating his own matter” will be sent to Moriarty Manor.

This kind of identity half-black half-white, can not be called a friend, but also can say a few words “collaborator”, is the source of Sherlock’s information.

The so-called clever woman can’t cook without rice …… If you can’t get enough information, even a good detective is difficult to deduce the truth of the incident.

…… However, Watson actually managed to find out about Eagle Point Village.

Sherlock realized that he still underestimated him.

“One more thing, Detective Watson.”

Sherlock Jr. took his newfound cane and poked him nonchalantly – Watson was basically alive nowadays thanks to his care, and in a sense it wouldn’t be too much of a stretch for the other man to call himself a righteous father. So Sherlock had no intention of being polite to him at all.

“…… You may speak.”

Although Watson didn’t quite understand why this dwarf was so righteous, he keenly sensed Sherlock’s attitude and confidence. Therefore, his attitude towards this childish appearance of a “cane-wielding newsboy” was very low.

“Why have you come to Eagle Point Village? Why do you think Sherlock is in Eagle Point Village?”

Sherlock asked sharply in return.

He had followed Ivars to Eagle Point Village only after he had gotten smaller.

In other words, if Watson had tracked himself through normal channels, then he should not have known that he had come to Eagle Point Village.

But he didn’t know that he was Sherlock Hermes.

Sherlock had to cross-examine him to find out if there was something he had missed – or if someone who knew about this could have leaked it. But Watson’s response was completely beyond Sherlock’s expectations, “I’m not tracking Mr. Hermes here.”

“No?”

“I came here after Ivars Moriarty.”

Watson replied seriously, “This is where he came before and disappeared for a while. When he went back, he made a lot of big trouble on Glass Island …… I think this place is a key.”

–Princess Isabel pretty much started to suddenly become ruthless after Ivars went back from here.

If the matter of “Ivars return journey” signaled any important change, then in the case of not being able to approach Ivars, nor daring to approach Ivars, he could only side-step and investigate what Ivars had been through.

He had already sent the information of “Avalon may want to ally with Iris and go to war with Star Antimony” back to the Mage Tower, but he had not sent it to Star Antimony for the time being.

Because he was still hesitant.

If this information was sent back, he was afraid that it would have a very big impact. Therefore, he was still holding the thought of “I hope that’s not the case” in his heart, looking for evidence that would make him give up this suspicion.

“Big deal?”

Sherlock raised his eyebrows, “What big thing?”

Watson hesitated for a moment, but an inexplicable urge, and trust in the child in front of him led him to offer his own conjecture without thinking – and it was only a conjecture without any evidence anyway, “I hypothesize that Avalon may be about to declare war on Star Antimony on its own accord, under the influence of the great powerhouse, Ivars Moriarty !”

“…… Huh?”

Sherlock froze.

He felt like Watson’s logic was fragmented and completely incomprehensible.

So he could only tap his knee helplessly and gesture for him to get up first, “Go back to Glass Island first, Mr. Watson. There’s nothing left here, and if you’re concerned about what he did here, I can tell you all about it on the way.

“Also, if you’re looking for dark information on Ivars, I’m afraid you’ll be disappointed.

“He did show up here – but in a fight to the death with the leader of the Noble Red. It’s no secret, and I can assure you it’s one hundred percent true, Mr. Watson. You can record it all on your ridiculous novel all you want.”

Sherlock Jr. said calmly.

And on the other side.

On a luxury cruise ship in the harbor area, a voluptuous and beautiful woman got off the ship.

She was wearing a gorgeous goose-yellow dress. There were small black dots like butterflies on the skirt, but from a distance, those butterflies looked like eyes.

Her skin was as white as snow, and her chest was of an amazing size. They were as sweet and soft as cakes.

What made her even more conspicuous was her long, curly, platinum blonde hair, and her soft, pink pupils.

As soon as she stepped off the boat, she was greeted by a screaming crowd.

They held up signs with the name “Emma” on them and broke through a stream of people.

Some whispered in amazement, “Who is Emma?” and were almost beaten up by angry fans.

But even before the fight broke out, an arbitrator, clad in silver armor, arrived to keep order and stop the fight.

One by one, the arbitrators arrived, nodding respectfully to Ms. Emma.

Emma, for her part, simply smiled graciously and waved to the crowd, eliciting even stronger chants.

As she watched the crowd huddle, curse, and even fight to get closer to her, she narrowed her eyes slightly and smiled a pleasant and seductive sweet smile.

That desire-filled sweet sigh gradually filled the entire harbor area as she breathed.

The knights of the Arbitration Hall, who appeared to be presiding over order, had already surrounded the entire harbor area in a hidden manner. Nervously and cautiously gazing at each other.

–Not even the need for the Inspectorate’s intelligence, not the eyes of the griffins.

When the people of Glass Island smelled the sweet, cloying, hallucinatory and agitating aroma in the air, it was enough for the people to know ……

The top powerhouse of the fifth energy level of Star Antimony, one of the leaders of the Demon Scholars, Countess Emma, the current First Secretary of the Red Prime – had arrived in Avalon bright and clear.

She came in the name of peace.
