Forbidden Flower of Moriarty || Moriarty the Patriot Fanfiction ||

Chapter 31: The Final Act Begins

A/N: You know I had this another crazy idea while I was taking a bath days ago. A modern day high school boy was transmigrated as the OG William and as soon as he realized who he is from the manga he read, he has to do his best to survive past chapter 2 without going too OOC. (Because I kinda remember OG William died around chapter 1 I think? Correct me if I'm wrong.) He thinks OOC-ing might end up him going along with the Moriarty trio and he's too lazy to join their cause (his personal reasons was that he wants the plot to progress as to what the manga indicates).

Anyways, I plan that he decided to leave the Moriarty family and change his name before the main story happens to avoid the death flag. And he lived a peaceful life in Hampshire (Or so he thought.)

Maybe I could ship him with another male OC who is his personal butler of sort who is loyal af to him but his personality is like someone who enjoys roasting and sassing others except his master. (Also secretly possessive, lol, I might scrap this idea). Or it depends. I'll make this Shounen Ai. Anyways, they won't affect the canon storyline at all. They are just being... There. For the sake of existing.

I do not own the pic above used, credits to the mangaka.

Anyhowsss, happy reading!!

-------------------------------------------

Looking at the scene right now, the Lord of Crimes, the Blackmail King and London's famous detective facing each other with their guns drawn in a room, it is rather an odd combination forcibly brought together.

Each has their own reasons for going after Milverton; William wanted to kill him as he is a thorn to their plan, Sherlock only wanted to get the evidence that was used to blackmail Mary so John could marry her without any issues.

Milverton was full of himself, thinking that he has the upperhand against the two geniuses. To force William to surrender and to force Sherlock to arrest the Lord of Crimes. He thinks that the blackmail material was enough to force them to do his play for his own amusement.

But both men proved him wrong.

Rather, Sherlock was delighted that the Lord of Crimes was William and he was here in the same situation as him, something Milverton was not able to foresee. He didn't expect the two were already familiar with each other.

In frustration and desperation after he was cornered instead, Milverton was about to jump off from the balcony. At the same time when he jumped, Sherlock shot him on the back and fell to his death.

The gunshot did not go unnoticed by those who were fighting in the lower floor, which prompted them to halt their fight. Louis and the mercenary he's fighting with saw Milverton's body fall from the second floor to the sea below the cliff.

Elise and Fred didn't see the body fall but they also heard the gunshot.

With Milverton dead, it will be reported that the Lord of Crimes is William James Moriarty throughout the country. Sherlock cannot prove that he is the Lord of Crimes with just the circumstantial evidence of him being here right now, so he cannot arrest him that easily.

"...But that's just a wild guess." The ravenette says before lighting a cigarette.

"It's already obvious." William tells him blandly.

"That's right, Liam." He threw the matchstick that was burning to the nearest curtain. "Does Lis know that you are the Lord of Crimes?"

"...If I answer it truthfully, will you go after her like you are to me?"

So she had been an accomplice from the start. It was no surprise seeing how close they are and they share the same humor. Sherlock already suspected that the whole siblings are accomplices of each other.
