I became DIO's vicious stepmother

Chapter 110 Revenge

Holmes' hands were broad and warm, with callused knuckles where he had been holding the pipe, and there was a slight smell of tobacco.He let go of my hand after less than a minute, then nodded politely to me.

"If that's the case... It's an unexpected discovery that completely rewrote my cognition."

He seemed to find something that interested him very much. He looked at me with bright eyes and said, "How does Ms. White feel about blood? Can I continue to do another test?"

...what does he want?Test whether vampires are as thirsty for blood as the legend says?

I figured Holmes might be inviting me to suck his blood, but it felt slightly disrespectful.I hesitated for a while, and when I was thinking about how to politely refuse, Dio suddenly interrupted us and said in a slightly eccentric manner.

"Enough is enough, Mr. Sherlock Holmes. Instead of caring about these meaningless things, you should think about where to find Mrs. Brown. After all, if you delay for one minute, one more person will be victimized, right? .”

"You are right, but it is not appropriate at this time."

Holmes glanced at Dio who was staring at him coldly, and his lips curled up in an arc of interest.

"Maybe we need to schedule a separate time for this."

I don't know if Holmes said this to test Dior, or if it was purely out of curiosity.

With his vicious eyes, he had already seen through what kind of person Dio was when he killed his father, but because Dalio is a scumbag, he just warned me to be careful of this stepson and to keep him under strict supervision. prevent him from going down the path of crime.

I did discipline him very strictly, so that compared with Dior's record in the original book, his current resume is innocent except for poisoning his father. I also plan to teach him to learn ripples, I always feel that I have dug a big hole for myself...

Dio's expression became quite distorted all of a sudden, but for these older adult men, he behaved much more decently than when facing Jonathan.

"This is not appropriate, Mr. Detective. Although I thank you for clearing us, I hope you can still be more polite."

It may be that Baron Zeppelin also felt that something was wrong, so he had to smooth things over, "There is no need to study these, Mr. Holmes, this will only hurt Miss White, and this is not what she wants. But I What I can tell you is that Mrs. Brown turned into a very dangerous creature, and the threat is much higher than that of Miss White, so it doesn't make much sense to use Miss White as a reference."

"I know, this is just my personal curiosity."

"Sherlock, don't forget what we're here for."

Watson finally couldn't bear to stop Holmes' disrespectful behavior, and apologized for him, saying, "I'm sorry, it's just because this kind of thing is hard to accept at once, and Sherlock didn't mean any harm."

"It doesn't matter. I understand Mr. Holmes's personality. He just likes to find answers and is interested in unknown things."

I waved my hand generously, saying that I didn't mind about it, "If Mr. Holmes is really interested, I can answer your curiosity if I have a chance, but I have to remind you that this may be dangerous... "

"I'm very happy with your understanding of me, Ms. White." He smiled and said, "Then you must also know that I am an adventurous man."

"...Yeah." I also knew he had self-destructive tendencies.Of course, he is much better than Dior, who likes to pursue the limit and is keen to die.

I always feel that the character of Sherlock Holmes is not quite like the version of Robert Downey Jr., nor is it the same as in the original novel... It's a bit hard to say, but the only essence will not change.

Just like creating countless parallel worlds, Dior will always be the same bad thing...

After we had answered all of Holmes' questions, he quickly deduced several places where vampires might be hiding, so that Baron Zeppelin could try his luck in these places.

In the slums of East London, the police patrols are extremely careless. Missing a few people is commonplace. No one cares about the life and death of the poor. The way the police close the case is very rough and sloppy.It is a better place to hibernate, make companions, and obtain food.

If that kind of vampire can't appear in the sun during the day, from the time she attacked the Whites last night until dawn, it was too late to escape from London, and there was no carriage to leave last night, so it is most likely that she went to hide somewhere in the East End up.

At the same time, Holmes said that he needed to confirm some things. After he finished his reasoning, he didn't stay for too long, and left with Watson in a hurry.

"The police cannot be allowed to investigate."

Baron Zeppelin frowned and said, "You can't scare the snake away, or those civilians will become Mrs. Brown's hostages. I will first ask the servants at home to notify the division, and then start an investigation."

"Yes, ordinary people can no longer be involved in this matter." Jonathan nodded in agreement.

Speaking of which, I have an idea...

In fact, I also have an intelligence network in the Eastern District.

For those women who started the street stall economy, their information is absolutely fast enough. Alyssa does not have the ambition and courage of Dior. I guess she dare not be exposed to the public eye, and the possibility of escaping in order to survive is relatively high.

But I want to find the stone ghost face, so I have to find her out.Otherwise, the century-old grievances between Dior and Jojo will become the century-old grievances between Alyssa and me...

After accepting the detective's investigation, I said goodbye to Sir Joestar and left their manor with Dior.

Because I wanted to contact the women in the Eastern District of the Mutual Aid Association, I mentioned this matter and my plan to Dio.

"I'm going to visit Lily next. It's up to you if you want to stay at home or go back to school. In fact, I suggest you stay at Sir Joestar's house. It's safer for them to ripple."

"Oh? Aren't you worried about my safety?" Dio squinted his eyes at me, "What if your sister comes looking for me, Jenny?"

"...Don't worry, Dio, you'll be fine. Take a step back and say, if you die, I will avenge you."

I rolled my eyes, and said with a sneer in my heart, are you kidding? Can ordinary people escape from Alyssa, who just lost control, or even negotiate terms with her...

"is it?"

He seemed to be pleased and laughed, "I'm very happy, Jenny, but I like it even more when you said you were going to kill me together... It made me directly feel your passionate feelings for me for the first time."

"..."

...Listen, is he speaking human language?What kind of pervert is this?

I grinned, not wanting to talk to him very much.

"I'm going to go with you to that woman with a brain problem and see what you guys want to do."

He happily made his own decision.

"Also." I looked up at him and said, "Then, as the vice president of the mutual aid society, go meet your members."

…………

After meeting Lily at a support meeting on Dorian Gray's behalf, I briefly explained the matter to her alone.

"That kind of vampire is far less harmful than a man's harm to a woman."

Lily sneered, maybe because of the undead creatures, she didn't care about Alyssa's danger.She didn't take Alisa's affairs very seriously, but she still agreed to help.

Because men are stealing the business of the women in the Eastern District recently, and they will lose everything. At the recent mutual aid meeting, they have been discussing how to take back what belongs to them, which is very radical.

"How dare you treat us like this! They must pay the price!"

"That's right! Let those damned men know that we can't be trampled on by them!"

Angry women clamored for a revolution, and the mutual-aid clubs were noisy and chaotic.

However, Dio's patience at this time was unexpectedly good. Unlike Dorian Gray, who had already broken down with these women, he listened for a while, and suddenly took the initiative to integrate into their conversation.

"Maybe we should go to the source and destroy the threat at the root."

He cared about everything related to the law, and he told these women in the East End that the person who exploited them and passed laws that raised the cost of doing business for them was a man named Duke Joan.

Duke Huo An is a very ambitious man. Because of the decline of the textile industry and the planting industry, the industries of women on the East Street will bring great benefits. The passage of this law has won him a lot of support.As long as some women are sacrificed, more benefits can be obtained...

The name seems to have been heard, but I can't recall it.

But the source is not just Duke Huo An... I thought to myself, even if he didn't propose it, someone else would. Now that such a big piece of fragrant steamed bun, who wouldn't be tempted?

Dio seemed to be intentionally or unintentionally instilling the idea that the cause of these women's pain was the idea of ​​those upper nobles. I wanted to interrupt him several times, but I couldn't say it.

Life has been so hard, and they need someone who can vent to them... This problem cannot be solved by one person's efforts, and I can't think of a way to help them, and I feel very powerless.

In short, when this mutual aid meeting ended, the hostility became extremely heavy.But Dio seems to be doing well with them. He won their favor the first time he participated, although he didn't actually give any effective advice...

"You are No.1 in the law department, do you have any good advice for the sisters, Dior." I frowned and asked him.

"Because of this, what I can tell them is that they will never be able to solve this problem through the law. The object of legal services is only the class that makes the law." Dior pretended to be very sad and said helplessly.

"That's right, we still need a revolution!" Lily slapped the table and shouted, "Let those damned men know the limit of what we can do!"

"I agree." I raised my hand and nodded.

It's just that this must be accompanied by sacrifice, which is inevitable.I'm planning to wait until the matter of the stone ghost face is resolved first, and then see if there is anything I can help.After asking these women to keep an eye out for the whereabouts of Alyssa who might be lurking in the East District, and reminding them that they only need to provide information, and they must flee immediately after seeing them, I took Dio and left the mutual aid club.

On the first day of the initiative, everyone, including Jonathan, got nothing.I'm going to wait for Holmes to share his findings. He must have found more than we have. The entire East End is too big. Finding Alyssa hiding there is like finding a needle in a haystack.

I spent the night exploring London's sewers and other areas, and in the morning I found nothing.When he came back from exhaustion, he saw Dior sitting leisurely on the sofa and reading the newspaper, with a faint smile floating on the corner of his mouth.

"Have you found any clues?"

I took off my shoes and coat and sat down next to Dior.

"Have you drilled all over London's sewers? You smell like dead rats. Go take a shower."

Dior frowned slightly in disgust, then gave me the newspaper in his hand.

"There is good news, maybe we can celebrate today."

"What good news."

I glanced at the news in the newspaper without any expectation, but at this moment, I was suddenly stunned.

On the front page of the newspaper, it was impressively written that the Mackenzie family was wiped out by a promising politician——

They died tragically, as if they were torn apart by some ferocious beast, and most of their bodies were missing. The police initially judged that wild beasts broke into their house.

McCann's entire family was wiped out? !

When I saw this news, I was immediately stunned, and my first reaction was: Damn it! !

How is this possible... what the hell happened?I haven't carried out my revenge plan against them, and they are all dead all of a sudden?

what is the problem?

After repeatedly confirming that I read the news correctly and the date of the newspaper, I turned my head instantly and looked at Dior with the corner of his mouth slightly raised in horror.

"Does this matter concern you?"

"What are you thinking, Jenny, I have an alibi."

He glanced at me with an evil smile, not hiding his joy, "I stayed with you all day yesterday, and Sir Joestar can testify to me in the evening, I have been learning ripple breathing from Jonathan Law."
