Summary of Undead Murder Farce episode 6

In the previous episode, Arsene Lupin disguised himself as Sherlock Holmes and visited Holmes' residence. Watson, the first to arrive, didn't recognize him, but Mycroft quickly saw through the disguise. Later, when the real Sherlock arrived, Lupin revealed his true face, declared his intent to break into Phileas Fogg's basement chamber, and then promptly made an exit.

Mycroft then cautioned Sherlock about the Royce agents, who might be plotting to steal the Penultimate Night. These agents are hostile towards supernatural beings and, given that the diamond reveals the location of werewolves, they might intend to use it to track them down.

Meanwhile in the anime, on their way to the Madame Tussauds wax museum, Tsugaru and Shizuku discovered that they had misplaced Aya's cage. Two thieves, who had previously crossed paths with Aya, found her and took her hostage.

Shizuku, upon spotting her master getting abducted, pursued the thieves in a car, unaware that Arsene Lupin and the Phantom of the Opera were the ones driving it. Tsugaru caught up as well and effortlessly rescued Aya.

Upon seeing Arsene Lupin, Aya recognized him and Tsugaru immediately engaged in a fight with him. However, the battle was short-lived, and Tsugaru found himself defeated.

That night, those assigned to safeguard the Penultimate Night assumed their positions in various areas of Phileas Fogg's mansion. Aya, Tsugaru, and Shizuku were stationed at the top of the tower, while Sherlock and Watson were inside the basement chamber. Sherlock fired a few shots at the chamber door to ensure that opening it would take at least a few hours.

But then water suddenly began to flow into the chamber through the sole vent that supplied air. It was revealed that a portion of the outer wall had been destroyed, allowing water from the moat in. Sherlock grew concerned because if he drowned, there would be no way to safeguard the diamond.

What to expect from Undead Murder Farce episode 7?

Aya had entrusted Sherlock Holmes with the task of safeguarding the chamber and housing the Penultimate Night. With the place flooded and no way out, it is clear the detective might need some help. However, given that viewers have yet to see his incredible brain in action, he may have something up his sleeve that will be in Undead Murder Farce episode 7.

On the other hand, if Arsene Lupin manages to obtain the black diamond, it remains to be seen what Aya and Tsugaru will do, both to save those trapped inside the chamber and to arrest the thief. Finally, in Undead Murder Farce episode 7, viewers will look forward to Moriarty, who also has an interest in the diamond, making a spectacular appearance soon.
