Who would win this battle of the minds? The most brilliant criminal mind ever conceived versus the most brilliant detective ever conceived.
People forget Hannibal Lecter was not only one of the most brilliant fictional characters ever created, but the way his mind works was flat out scary. He also honed his senses to the point of being more animal than human. He could smell and identify what perfume clarice wore, even though she wasn't wearing it that day. He recreated detailed rennaissance paintings from memory. He talked a guy into swallowing his own tongue. He was polite, civilized and disarmingly charming, but this man also once bit off a nurse's tongue.
You do NOT want to engage in mind games with Dr. Hannibal Lecter. EVER. Unless, you are a man who enjoys and even thrives on playing mind games while constantly hoping to find an equal...a man whose mind works in a different way than normal human beings. A man who sees things no one else sees and therefore knows things no one else knows....a man who can run mental circles around anyone so easily that they have become bored and crave mental stimulus more than anything in life.....Mr. Sherlock Holmes.
This is a battle of wits. Lecter's killing people and Sherlock is put on the case to figure out who the murderer is. Due to Lecter having the advantage of living a century later, for this scenario I'll use the Benedict Cumberbatch modern version of Holmes.
Who wins?
