In the middle of the night, he dragged Watson to a very dark and dilapidated old mansion, and through the dirty window, he looked out and saw that across the street was the old mansion of Sherlock Holmes on Baker Street. The curtains of the old mansion revealed a figure, it was exactly the same as Sherlock Holmes, Watson quickly looked back at whether Holmes was still there, I handcuffed for three years and did not see Holmes out of a twin? Without much thought, there were sudden footsteps behind them, and the two of them crouched in the dark corner, the footsteps were getting closer and closer, only to see a tall and thin old man come in, slowly approaching the window, observing, and then holding up a sniper rifle, aiming at Holmes on the opposite window, "booing", only to hear the glass shattered, Holmes and Watson instantly pounced on the goods to subdue the goods, and the police came. Candles lit, hey! This is none other than Colonel Moran! On the cliff, he fought Against Sherlock Holmes, who had served in the Indian Army and was the best gunner!

Everyone looked at each other, what do you say? He was obviously murdering you, how can you say that he murdered Adel? He took Watson to the old mansion across The Street from Baker, and it turned out that the shadow was his wax figure! He had been shot in the head by a sniper rifle, picked up the bullet, and was a lead-headed revolver bullet.

Conch believes that it is not unjust. The most likely problem of the second generation of officials is to become a stupid child, who does not learn and wanders around all day. Of course, it is not excluded that there are young people with ambitions in the second generation of officials. But this Adel, where is the casino good? Even if you know Moran, you still have to partner with him, and even if you partner, you can't just stupidly expose him, this is when a bitch still has to set up a archway, of course, Moran does not agree. It is said that he took a step back from the sea and the sky, but Adel forced Moran to quit gambling, which was too wide, and Moran killed him, which was unexpected.
