Chapter 147 Observation, Guidance, Control

Lin En is very smart. It can be said that in this era of extremely high illiteracy, he is better than many people in terms of knowledge and vision. But because of this intelligence, he did not find the right direction completely, but was a little funny, so Sherlock seemed a little rude.

That's right, Lin En did not think with mysterious thinking.

Or Lin En underestimated the mysterious traction.

Sherlock's words were very explicit, so explicit and low-level that it was a bit insulting to intelligence. Lin En's original slick appearance could not hold it back.

He admitted that Mr. Detective had reasonably convinced himself.

Of course, in terms of initiative, Mr. Xiao would not let go so easily. Since Sherlock was so concerned about this matter, he must have discovered something. If it was just a coincidence, this smart man would definitely not be so concerned. There must be something that proved that this was not a coincidence.

"Can you talk about the secret chapter?"

After a moment of silence, Lin En decided to continue the topic with a fair trade between extraordinary people.

"Of course, you should know." Sherlock's expression returned to his previous carelessness. "The so-called secret chapter is actually a set of secret books left over from the Rhenium Gold Age. The exact number of them is unknown. Some say fifteen, some say fourteen, and some say six. But..."

The detective, who was holding a pipe, exhaled a little smoke from his mouth. His eyes were particularly bright and sharp behind the light blue smoke.

"... The most reliable statement should be eleven."

"Why?" Lin En couldn't help but be curious. It was not difficult to see from the [Abundant Secret Scripture] he had come into contact with that the stories recorded in it should all correspond to the deeds and praises of a true god.

But it is obvious that the number of true gods is more than eleven.

"I haven't found out the exact reason, but it should be related to the changes of the true gods. In short, an unknown extraordinary person left this set of secret books, and also left a legend. If you can collect all eleven secret books and hold a ceremony, you can directly start the great cause of ascension, or even become a god directly."

Lin En and Sherlock both laughed. The authenticity of this legend needs to be discussed.

It's just that this routine has been used in the past, present and future. What if you gather swords and armor to destroy the devil, what if you gather a certain number of friends to chop a knife, you can get something for free. This is essentially a routine, a routine that uses the greed in human nature to achieve the goal.

But as he laughed, Lin En showed a thoughtful look.

There are always too many idiots.

Even in the downstream of history, there are apps like Pinxixi that use red envelopes that will never be eaten to seduce batches of people to be used. Since this is a routine, there will definitely be people who are fooled, just like there are always people willing to pay the IQ tax, so there will definitely be people who use this routine to benefit.

So, this is what Sherlock really wants to say.

"So, are you doubting me? If I have a secret chapter and know its legendary rituals, I will use it to deceive extraordinary people to achieve a certain purpose. If I guess correctly, you suspect that I am a member of the [Gem Society]?"

"Very sharp thinking, but there is one thing wrong."

Sherlock's voice is very confident and calm. Even the precocious and smooth Lin En seems a little immature in front of him. Although this detective claims to be not well-known, he is undoubtedly a terrible man. If he is an opponent, Lin En will never compete with him in IQ.

"That is, I have never doubted your identity."

Lin En frowned, and he realized that Sherlock knew him, not recently, but had known him unilaterally for a while.

Just as Lin En was thinking, Sherlock clapped his hands and stood up.

"It's a great pleasure to talk to you, and I also understand what kind of person Lin En Moriarty is. Let's end it here this time. I believe that the next time we meet, it will still be such an interesting conversation."

"It's over?" Lin En felt a little unsatisfied.

"Will you treat me to lunch at the [Lightman]?"

"I don't have the right to reimburse."

Sherlock seemed to have left Lin En without getting anything, or he had gotten what he wanted, but the young gentleman just didn't catch it.

His appearance sounded a wake-up call to Lin En.

That is, when he looks forward, he should also pay attention to the past. The cause of some things may not be recent, but earlier, involving more people. The subtext and hints in Sherlock's words can be said to be everywhere, and Lin En also slowly recalled them after realizing it.

After sitting alone in the lounge for a long time, the handsome boy sneered.

"[Line] phase? So I have been persuaded unconsciously."

The secret induction and the unknown undercurrent are all told with the quiet emergence of [Line]. Lin En's green eyes changed to a strange red in the blink of an eye, and then returned to their original state.

Although it felt bad when we first met, as the conversation progressed, we were able to gain something. If there is no emotion involved and it is just a matter of business, Lynn would still be happy to continue dealing with the other party.

Sherlock Holmes.

After leaving the [Lamplighter] branch, the handsome and charming young detective had a more confident and brilliant smile on his face, and he lowered his voice to a line while holding the pipe in his hand.

"What a pity. I thought you would get rid of that girl, Mr. Moriarty. It seems that gentlemen who like to drink black tea with six sugars added are not as decisive as I thought. No matter how sharp they are, Knives will rust if left for a long time, making cutting very ugly.”

Like an audience calmly watching a grand drama, Detective Sherlock naturally blended into the rush of people and disappeared in the blink of an eye. The so-called [thread] is this kind of thing that seems to be indifferent. It can be closely connected to each other, or it can be disconnected, but the line of observation will not be broken.

If you can observe, you can guide.

If you can guide, you can control.

This is the concept of the extraordinary profession in [Destiny Bureau]. Even the most unpredictable destiny can be controlled through human interference to achieve the desired effect, making everything appear extremely reasonable and logical.

Of course, the ability to play with fate is not without its costs and limitations. Deliberate guidance and manipulation, the cunning and unpredictable fate will also tease the controller to the same extent when he thinks everything is appropriate. And even fate cannot directly pronounce a person's probability to zero.

Because destiny is always changing and cannot be completely fixed.

The more people can struggle with their will, the more different possibilities they can present on the thread of fate. For example, Lynn Moriarty.
