Yuukoku no Moriarty

William Moriarty ermittelt gegen den Adligen Lord Argleton wegen der Ermordung von sieben Jungen im London des späten 19. Jahrhunderts.

William James Moriarty, future nemesis of Sherlock Holmes, lives in late 19th century London. William learns of a serial killer who has murdered seven young boys and immediately deduces from their fathers' occupations the killer is a nobleman who encountered the boys at their fathers' shops, except for one boy who was homeless. After interviewing the homeless boy's friend, William deduces the killer must have first seen the boy from a window of the Gastros fine dining club. William's brother, Albert, uses his connections to get William inside the club. William is immediately suspicious of Lord Argleton, a founding member. William notices Argleton's attire was bought from the boys' fathers. After hinting to Argleton he knows about his obsession with young boys, Argleton sends a thug after William, who is easily taken out by William's other brother, Louis. Later, William provides a restrained Argleton to his client, a father of one of the boys, for revenge, revealing that William secretly works as a crime consultant, alongside his brothers Albert and Louis, to help their clients commit crimes. With the police and general public unaware of Argleton's death and disappearance, William declares it another perfect crime. (Source: Wikipedia)

Albert's father further infuriates her when he pays for Louis' surgery in order to impress another woman. The real William attempts to bully the brothers, but is unsuccessful.

That night, the real William attempts to hide stolen silverware in fake William's room in order to frame him. Fake William had guessed he would attempt this and catches the real William in the act before allowing Albert to stab the real William as a sign of his commitment.

One of William's noble students, Lucian Atwood, goes missing. William learns Lucian is dating a waitress named Frida. Dudley Bale, an administrative assistant for the university, advises William to ignore the situation. William learns from Frida's employer that Lucian had proposed marriage, despite Frida being a commoner, and she became pregnant. A man had later visited Frida and claimed Lucian no longer wanted to marry her, so Frida threw herself off a bridge and drowned. It is revealed that Dudley staged Frida's murder as a suicide then drugged and imprisoned Lucian in a brothel. William contacts two men, Sebastian Moran and Fred Porlock. Fred retrieves Lucian and places him near the bridge. Dudley rushes to retrieve Lucian only for Frida to rise from the river, terrifying Dudley into confessing to drugging Frida. William arrives and reveals Frida is Fred in disguise. He also reveals Dudley owns several brothels and opium dens and uses his noble status to lure students into them so he can blackmail their families. Sebastien fires several sniper shots at Dudley's feet, causing him to jump backwards and fall into the river where he drowns. A distraught Lucian has Frida buried in a noble cemetery.

Count Blitz Enders wird für den Mord in die Ecke gedrängt, während William seinen gesellschaftlichen Reformplan ausführt.

A commoner is chased down by a hunter and his dogs before being shot. The ocean liner Noahtic begins its maiden voyage and Count Blitz Enders, an openly arrogant noble, heavily criticizes that commoners are allowed aboard. Days previously, William shared his plan to slowly remake society by plunging London into an era of crime, all while committing murders designed to educate commoners in exactly how the nobility have been abusing them, starting with Blitz. Onboard, Sebastien pays Thomas Michaelson, a rapist and murderer, to provoke Blitz, hoping Blitz will overreact against Thomas, reasoning that the death of a man like Thomas can be put to good use. Fred further enrages Blitz by delivering a telegram claiming his home burned down and one of his coal mines closed after an industrial accident. William meets a man who instantly deduces William is a mathematician, so William responds by deducing the man's hobbies, amusing the man who leaves without introducing himself. Blitz, revealed to be the hunter who hunts commoners for fun, lures Thomas to his cabin and murders him. With his plan a success, William enters Blitz’s cabin, pretending to catch Blitz in the act.

Moriarty und Blitz inszenieren Thomas' Tod, während William Sherlock Holmes zur Rede stellt.

Moriarty pretends to believe Blitz's lie that he killed Thomas in self-defense and offers to cover up the crime. Together they throw Thomas into the sea, though Fred and Sebastien secretly retrieve the body. The next night, during an onboard ballet, William approaches Blitz and reveals that Thomas is somehow alive. Blitz chases after Thomas through the ship, really Fred in disguise, intending to kill him again, only to be confronted with Thomas' corpse. Deciding to make sure he is dead, Blitz begins stabbing the body. When he is publicly revealed as a murderer, Blitz is disarmed by the man William met earlier, who immediately deduces something strange about Thomas' corpse. Blitz climbs the ship's mast to escape, but Sebastien shoots at him with a silenced rifle, causing him to fall to his death. William influences Parliament to investigate Blitz's hunting grounds so that when his victims' bodies are discovered, there will be public outrage among the commoners. He also reveals to his friends he has concerns about the man from the ship, who had approached him to reveal his deductions that the entire murder was staged, and had finally introduced himself as Sherlock Holmes.

Holmes und Watson untersuchen einen Mord, während sie mit Mietproblemen und dem Misstrauen der Polizei zu kämpfen haben.

Sherlock Holmes gets in trouble with his landlady Mrs. Hudson for not paying his rent. Holmes' friend, Dr. Stamford, suggests Holmes get a flatmate and sends Dr. John Watson, whom Holmes deduces is a retired army doctor. Mrs. Hudson is impressed enough to allow Watson to become Holmes' flatmate. Inspector Lestrade of Scotland Yard arrives and arrests Holmes for suspicion of murdering Count Drebber who had written Holmes name in his own blood before he died. Assistant Inspector Gregson, who despises Holmes, collects evidence despite Holmes pointing out that it could easily be faked. Lestrade decides to trust Holmes and takes him and Watson to the crime scene where Holmes secretly steals a piece of evidence, then with Watson's assistance, proves Drebber would have died too quickly to write his name and that the name was clearly written by a very large man unskilled at shooting guns, probably being controlled by an intelligent mastermind. Holmes immediately recognizes the handiwork of the mastermind behind the Noahtic. Excited at the prospect of a real challenge, Holmes secretly passes a note to Watson. Elsewhere, it is revealed William orchestrated Drebber's murder, having helped a man dying of a terminal illness get revenge in exchange for leaving evidence that would test Holmes' deductive abilities.

Holmes ermittelt die Identität des Mörders, während William seine Methoden genau beobachtet.

Holmes convinces Lestrade to let him escape, promising Lestrade the credit when he solves Drebber's murder. Holmes reveals to Watson the evidence he stole, a wedding ring engraved with the name Lucy. To tempt the mastermind, Holmes places a newspaper advert seeking the ring's owner. In response, William sends Fred disguised as an old woman. Fred claims the ring then escapes before Holmes can catch him. Holmes reveals to Watson inside a hansom cab he solved Drebber's murder. Drebber was suspected of raping lower class women then bribing them. One woman, Lucy, refused and was murdered; meaning Drebber's murderer was Lucy's husband, a large man named Jefferson Hope, the driver of the hansom cab. Holmes explains he has a network of homeless children, the Baker Street Irregulars, who located Jefferson based on Holmes description of his large body. Jefferson reveals his illness will kill him soon anyway and offers Holmes a deal: if Holmes shoots him, a nearby Fred will reveal their master's identity. However, Holmes refuses, preferring to deduce his identity on his own and turns Jefferson in to Lestrade. Meanwhile, as he didn't shoot Jefferson, William deems Holmes worthy to be his nemesis.

Holmes untersucht einen Todesfall in York und konfrontiert die Brüder Moriarty in einem Zug

Holmes has a nightmare where he willingly kills Jefferson. He later admits to Watson that despite his fame thanks to the Drebber case, he prefers to solve a bigger mystery. While he is alone, Holmes wonders whether or not he should have accepted Jefferson's offer. He then fires a gun which draws Mrs. Hudson, Watson, and Lestrade's attention. When Lestrade mentions that the Viscount of Redshire died on a lakefront in York, Holmes, Watson, and Lestrade go there to investigate. Following the investigation, Holmes and Watson have an argument. In the dining car, Holmes spots William and Louis. When he approaches them, he claims that he has figured out that William is the mastermind behind the aristocrat murders. While Louis is worried that Holmes knows the truth, William calls Holmes' bluff, stating that he would have to prove it. Later, as Lestrade introduces himself to the Moriarty brothers, they are informed there is a dead body. After Holmes proposes a contest to William to see who can solve the case first, Watson shows up while covered in blood. (Source: Wikipedia)

Holmes und William untersuchen einen Juweliermord, während Mycroft die königliche Genehmigung für geheime Dokumente einholt.

Railway police arrest Watson despite his protest the blood came from a man he bumped into near the toilets. Holmes and William determine the victim, Trevor Redwood, is a jeweler who was inadvertently killed when he woke up in the middle of a robbery after being drugged. With Holmes following the physical evidence, William constructs a psychological profile of the killer. Following their methods, they both determine the killer is a porter who is unable to dispose of his bloody uniform. Holmes discovers blood on porter Eddie Hawthorn, but Hawthorn claims the blood is his own from an earlier accident. William identifies additional blood evidence Holmes missed, which causes Hawthorn to confess. William reveals to Louis he planted the extra evidence, reasoning that while Holmes would have eventually found Hawthorn guilty, his illegal methods got results much faster. With Holmes defeated by William, he reluctantly asks for Watson's continued assistance in solving his cases. Meanwhile, Holmes' brother, Mycroft, meets a young Queen Victoria about missing documents relating to one of Britain's greatest national secrets and is given royal permission to do whatever is necessary to retrieve them.
