Conan’s Toast Does Not Eat Fine Wine

Chapter 581: Moriarty's funeral

Westminster Abbey, located on the north bank of the Thames in London, can be said to be the highest church in the UK. It is managed by the royal family and has always been the place for the coronation and burial of the British monarchs.

In addition to members of the royal family, great figures in many fields in the UK are also buried here, the most famous of which is the physicist Isaac Newton.

As far as Professor Moriarty is concerned, although he is quite accomplished in the field of mathematics, he is still far away from the top scientists. The ability to hold a funeral in Westminster Abbey also benefits from the surname Moriarty.

Everyone who can be buried in Westminster Abbey is a great person, so many Londoners gathered near the church with the mentality of watching the excitement, and even surrounded the road next to it.

But this also provided convenience for Conan and Amuro to enter the church.

"We really only met Brother Asano yesterday, right?" Conan stared at the newly decorated Westminster Abbey in astonishment. "Are they ready for Professor Moriarty's funeral in such a short time? "

Although he also knows that games and the real world cannot be compared, looking at it this way always gives him a sense that Professor Moriarty's family has been preparing for the funeral early in the morning.

The church was very deserted. Except for the clergy of the church, there were not many guests actually present. They stood together in twos and threes, and occasionally heard a few whispers.

As soon as I entered Westminster Abbey, a sense of solemnity arose. Even Conan, who was anxiously searching for Jack the Ripper, settled down and did not run around.

He and Toru Amuro looked at the guests attending the funeral one by one, and found no abnormalities.

A few minutes later, accompanied by soothing and solemn music, six faculty members from Moriarty's teaching university walked into Westminster Abbey from the main entrance carrying a wooden coffin.

When the coffin was placed on the flowery table in the center of the church, Conan vaguely saw the face of the person inside-it was Nobuhiro Asano.

Conan's heart stopped for a moment: "Don't the eliminated players disappear immediately? Mr. Asano looks more like the original character in the game."

Toru Amuro did not speak, but his purple-gray eyes were always locked tightly to the coffin in front.

The priest walked to the coffin and read the eulogy of Professor Moriarty sadly: "There is a time for everything, and there is a time for everything. There is a time for life and death; a time for sowing and a time for harvesting; a time for killing and a time for healing; a time for demolition and construction sometimes……"

Among the guests, there was a tall figure standing in the forefront position. With his back to Conan and Toru Amuro, he bowed his head and listened in silence from the beginning of the funeral.

"He should be Professor Moriarty's brother." Conan whispered to Toru Amuro, "Professor Moriarty has an older brother who works in the army and a younger brother who works as a stationmaster in the west of England."

"Yes?"

Amuro looked towards Albert James Moriarty, who happened to also look back in his direction.

His eyes met, and it was Albert who looked away first. He didn't seem to be interested in the blond man at all.

Amuro's eyes were deep: "The Colonel Moriarty has a very unpleasant breath."

He could see clearly just now, Albert's eyes were sunken deeply, dark blue under his eyes, and his eyes, like poisonous snakes, still contained a chilling chill.

Compared with Asano Nobuhiro, Amuro feels that Albert is more like the real Professor Moriarty.

At the end of the funeral, relatives and friends of the deceased step forward in order to bid the final farewell to the deceased.

Albert, the elder brother of Professor Moriarty, was the first to say goodbye. He placed a white rose next to Professor Moriarty who was sleeping in the coffin, and then left the church surrounded by his entourage. He didn't even wait for his brother to be buried here.

This is very unusual.

A elder brother who can publish articles to rectify his brother's name many times after his death, his views on crime and public order may be very different from Conan, but it is undeniable that Albert is a good brother.

How could he play his brother's funeral so perfunctorily?

Conan immediately thought of it: Professor Moriarty is not dead! He intends to use suspended animation to achieve his ulterior plan!

"Let's go, let's take a look." After that, Amuro Tou drew a white rose from the bouquet that decorated the church next to it, and followed the mourning procession.

In recent years, Amuro has not attended many funerals.

Even if his best friends left it one after another, Amuro Toru had only attended the funeral of Hagiwara Kenji among the four. At that time, he was not alone. At that time, he thought that the death of Hagiwara Kenji was a pain he could never let go of.

And now, Tou Amuro felt that his heart seemed to have become much stronger. Even when he recalled the past, he could remain calm and even indifferent.

There were not many guests at the funeral of Professor Moriarty, so it was Tou Amuro's turn soon.

He slowly stepped forward and walked in front of the man.

There seemed to be some people around him who recognized his identity and made waves of doubts or surprises, but those voices could not affect his mood at all.

Amuro Tou knelt beside the flowers around the coffin, he leaned slightly and looked at the man lying flat.

Was Asano Nobuhiro's appearance so ordinary?

With his eyes closed, Nobuhiro Asano was serene and quiet. The corners of his mouth were slightly downward and no longer always raised. His closed eyelids covered those smiling but invisible eyes.

At this time, Nobuhiro Asano was more harmless than a rabbit, but he also lost his vitality.

Toru Amuro seemed to realize that ~www.readwn.com~ The former Asano Nobuhiro was extraordinary, not because of his face, but because of his soul and essence.

Nobuhira Asano's soul is gone, is he still Nobuhiro Asano?

Toru Amuro stood up and turned away without hesitation.

Conan, who was following behind him, was stunned, and quickly reminded him: "Brother Anshi, don't you give him the flowers in your hand?"

Toru Amuro stopped, looked back at Nobuhiro Asano, and said, "No need."

No need, it's just an empty shell.

"Mr. Holmes." Suddenly, an unfamiliar voice sounded, "Looking up to the name for a long time, I didn't expect you to attend the funeral of Professor Moriarty."

When Amuro heard the sound, he originally thought that the visitor should be a guest who knew Holmes, but he didn't expect to see Albert's face: "Good day, Colonel Moriarty."

The man raised one eyebrow slightly: "Colonel? If you are talking about Albert James Moriarty, I have to apologize to tell you that he is dead."
