i'm not weird

Chapter 47 Queen Victoria
after an hour.

The Empire on which the sun never sets, the capital of fog, and Victoria Palace.

Gu Qingjiu and Chi Chen got off the carriage and stood at the gate of the palace.

Four guards stood at the gate of the Victoria Palace.

They wear uniforms similar to those of the Royal Guard, but have stricter and more advanced discipline and weapons.

"This is the Imperial Guard of the Empire on which the Sun Never Sets." Gu Qingjiu looked at the heroic expressions of the four Imperial Guards and couldn't help sighing, "It's no wonder that the Empire on which the Sun Never Sets was able to become the world's top country in the early days of industry. It seems that this is not unreasonable."

"Mr. Holmes, Mr. Watson, please follow me."

The female coachman parked the carriage in the parking space dedicated to the royal family, came to the two of them, and said.

After finishing speaking, the female coachman stepped forward and talked with one of the guards for a while before the four guards let them go.

Gu Qingjiu and Chi Chen followed the female coachman, and they had a taste of the beauty of the Victoria Palace.

"Wow!" Gu Qingjiu looked at the artwork hanging on the wall and said, "Master Chi, have you ever thought about building such a big palace? Facing south and north, absorbing the essence of heaven and earth, glow."

"I've thought about it, and I've done it too," Chi Chen said, "Actually, there's nothing bad about this palace, it's just a little big. I once woke up from a [-]-square-meter bed and almost burst my bladder while holding in my pee. .”

"..."

"Brilliant!"

Gu Qingjiu glanced at Chi Chen, quite speechless.

The three of them walked through a corridor and landscape, and came to the depths of the palace.

Going forward is the reception place of Queen Victoria of the Empire on which the sun never sets.

The female coachman stopped, bowed slightly to the two of them, and then said: "Mr. Holmes, Mr. Watson, in front is the place where Her Majesty the Queen will receive you. It is inconvenient for me to enter. Please walk the rest of the way by yourself."

Gu Qingjiu and Chi Chen nodded, and walked directly to the place where Queen Victoria was received.

It was a two-story house connecting the front yard and the back porch.

The height of each floor is about eight meters.

The interior decoration is prosperous, which makes people feel a little dazzling.

In the very center of this room, there is a rectangular table with chamfered corners.

Benches are placed next to these tables.

Chi Chen sat down on one of the benches, took out a pipe from his pocket and put it in his mouth.

Gu Qingjiu didn't pay attention to Chi Chen's behavior. He glanced at the bustling interior decoration of the house and the masterpieces hanging on the walls.

"Sure enough, it's a master's work. This style of brushwork is extraordinary." Gu Qingjiu looked at the paintings hanging on the wall and said to himself.

Chi Chen took out another pile of shredded tobacco from his pocket. He stuffed the shredded tobacco into the pipe, snapped his fingers, and the shredded tobacco in the pipe ignited.

Chi Chen finished smoking a lump of shredded tobacco, and Gu Qingjiu also finished reading all the paintings in this room.

Queen Victoria still hadn't come.

Gu Qingjiu was a little impatient, but Chi Chen said, "What's the rush, what's the rush, don't be in a hurry...Your mentality is unacceptable."

Under Chi Chen's persuasion, Gu Qingjiu finally calmed down and sat on the bench beside Chi Chen.

"Master Chi, this Queen Victoria is too good at showing off." Gu Qingjiu took out a book from Chi Chen's pocket and said while reading it.

"Signing up?" Chi Chen smiled, "Someone else is also the queen of a country. If you don't show off, do you still think you and her get along as equals?"

Gu Qingjiu was right when he thought about it, once he figured it out, he didn't worry about it anymore.

It was late in the afternoon when Queen Victoria arrived.

"Alas..." Gu Qingjiu looked at Queen Victoria walking in from the outside, her eyes lit up, she poked Chi Chen beside her, and whispered, "Master Chi, this Queen Victoria is so beautiful!"

Chi Chen ignored Gu Qingjiu. He stood up, bowed slightly to Queen Victoria, and said, "Your Majesty! All the best!"

"You must be Mr. Holmes!" Queen Victoria waved her hand and motioned for Chi Chen to sit down.

Chi Chen also sat down obediently.

Queen Victoria took the main seat, followed by a royal life steward.

"I have long admired you!" Queen Victoria said with a smile, "I wonder what Mr. Holmes would like to drink, the palace has everything."

"Being respectful is worse than obeying orders!" Chi Chen replied with a smile, "So, Your Majesty the Queen will bring me a cup of black tea."

"I knew that Mr. Holmes is a person of taste." Queen Victoria said with a smile to Chi Chen, and then she pointed to Chi Chen to the housekeeper beside her, "Serve Mr. Holmes a cup of Keemun black tea."

"Yes! Your Majesty the Queen!" Queen Victoria's life steward bowed to Queen Victoria.

"Oh! Sorry! I forgot that there is a doctor here!" Queen Victoria looked at Gu Qingjiu pretending to be surprised, and said, "Doctor Watson, what would you like to drink?"

"I think Queen Victoria is targeting me, Gu Qingjiu!" Gu Qingjiu whispered to Chi Chen, then stood up and bowed slightly to Queen Victoria.

"Thank you, Her Majesty, for your kindness! I have the same taste as Mr. Holmes."

After Gu Qingjiu finished speaking, she sat back on the bench.

"I didn't expect Dr. Watson to be such a person of taste!" Queen Victoria's smile was a little fake.

Gu Qingjiu knew that Queen Victoria didn't want to see him.

"Housekeeper, bring me three cups of Keemun black tea! Thank you!" Queen Victoria said to the housekeeper.

"As you wish, my queen!" The life butler smiled slightly and walked towards the door. Before leaving, he kissed the back of Queen Victoria's hand.

"Master Chi, why do I feel that these two are having an affair." Gu Qingjiu whispered to Chi Chen.

Chi Chen glanced at Gu Qingjiu, sighed, and replied: "Others are just a hand kiss, you can think so much, yes! Gu Qingjiu!"

Gu Qingjiu shrugged and did not respond.

After the three cups of Keemun black tea were served and Queen Victoria took a sip, she looked at Chi Chen with a smile.

"Mr. Holmes, I heard that you know who killed the Duke of Rose. There are no ears in this place. You might as well tell me." Queen Victoria pointed to the point.

As soon as Chi Chen took a sip of Qimen black tea, he heard Queen Victoria's words, quickly put down the Qimen black tea in his hand, and replied.

"Your Majesty, as you can see, I am an expert in tracking down this matter." As soon as Chi Chen opened his mouth, he revealed his identity. He took a sip from his pipe and said, "According to the clues I have , the murderer who killed the Duke of Rose should be hiding in the top ranks of the empire on which the sun never sets."

"How do you say this?" Queen Victoria asked curiously.

"Your Majesty, please allow me to speak slowly..."

Chi Chen took another sip of Keemun black tea to keep it a secret.

Sitting next to Chi Chen, Gu Qingjiu was a little displeased with Chi Chen's words, but he still complained in his heart.

'It's started, it's started!Master Chi is about to start pretending again! '
