[Comprehensive] Aunt sweeping the floor

So where are the two cats now?

Mr. Holmes is not willing to tell you at all, they are still living in a corner of his house, it is too good to be together again!

——Imported cat food and cat litter are provided every day, the drinking fountain is automatic, and a cat climbing frame is also assembled.For a while, he thought that Catherine was really dead, and treating the two cats kindly was also treating the family of the deceased kindly.

The villa where Mycroft raised his two cats is one of his regular residences.Maybe it's because I've been with these two cats for a while. Anyway, the two cats are already very familiar with his attitude, and the situation of rubbing their legs often happens.Sometimes Mycroft would take work back to the cottage and two cats would roam unceremoniously around his lap.

For example, when he and Catherine were on a video call.

On the fourth day of May, not long after the holiday, Catherine's long-awaited impeachment plan was finally officially launched.

The first thing that was thrown out was the information about that congressman. As a relatively eye-catching newcomer in the Fox interest group, his downfall speed was not as brilliant as his previous record.

When two predators in London focus on you, then your existence can only be like a fuse in the record.

Fox is well aware that the long-simmering Cold War has reached its most critical juncture.It's not that he didn't work hard, but Victoria, one of his former right-hand men, has confirmed his death.There was only one of his chief of staff left, but he still had an ambiguous attitude. He didn't know if he was promised a favor by his opponent and was about to stab him at a critical moment.

Based on this uncertainty, Fox did not completely hand things over to the chief of staff.Even on some tense issues, he directly bypassed the chief of staff and turned to others for help.

In this way, it's not just his chief of staff who is not very satisfied.The release of power has led to a lack of morale within the camp, and those who have tasted power are unwilling to let go easily. As a result, the relationship between various responsible persons is mixed, and loopholes frequently appear in management.

And the originally loyal chief of staff was also disheartened.In fact, Fox's chief of staff is already very old.The golden period of his working life is over.If Fox can do well, then the pinnacle of his career can be relatively brilliant.

From this perspective, he and Fox are completely a community of interests, and no one expects Fox to make good results more than him.

But it is precisely this kind of ardent expectation, combined with his own arrogant image, that gives Fox a sense of crisis that they belong to the same camp.

Soon, the old chief of staff was heartbroken to find himself excluded from the excessive planning of the crisis-as long as the Prime Minister wanted to do it, it was actually very easy to achieve it.

Therefore, as the person most likely to destroy the attack plan of Catherine and Mycroft in the entire camp, he was struck out at the beginning.

The old chief of staff could only watch with grief as a group of self-righteous people sabotaged his nearly ten-year efforts in a wonderful mood of self-satisfaction.

But he really could only watch helplessly. The prime minister himself had already refused to answer his call, and all the other appointments were turned down due to work tension.

The Whitehall secretary looked at his former colleague with sympathy.But this is a very normal thing, and the alternation of power is always accompanied by sadness and frustration.The female secretary-general does not know the specific development and victory or defeat.But from her point of view, this is all a loser hoping to re-establish the relationship with the prime minister in an alarmist way.

Likewise, Fox thinks so too.So he turned down all 'meaningless' appointments.Take the last straw as the confession of a traitor, and skip all opportunities from your fingers.

In fact, his act of abandoning his subordinates at a critical moment is quite chilling.The old staffer has served Fox for nearly a decade, and he has participated in many dirty power centers.If you know too much, it will be difficult to die well.

Catherine saves her old staffer in a car accident before launching the plan.

When the old man in a well-fitting suit was pulled out of the deformed car by Catherine unscathed, although he didn't suffer any physical trauma, his spirit seemed to be gone all at once.That suit can no longer support his aura, just like an ordinary old man, he has finally entered the twilight time.

"I won't say thank you to you. It's like... I have done this to many people before, and now that I am old, I was revenged by others.... You and that person will also have Such a day, if you are still working in this line of work."

The old man said this to Catherine in a hoarse voice before leaving.There was no shortage of warnings in his tone. Through those already dim eyes, Catherine saw a practitioner's warning for many years.This is somewhat touching.

But she quickly calmed down and sent the old man back home with a smile.

The former glory of the chief of staff was gone, and the moment he closed the door of the house, Catherine seemed to have foreseen the ominous situation.

On the night of the third day, the old man still died in his home in a strange manner.

This seems to confirm the prophecy of 'no good death' in the industry.

A gentleman appears three times in the papers: at birth, at marriage, at death.

When Catherine saw the tofu-sized obituary of her old aide in the evening paper on the [-]rd, she quietly closed the newspaper, put it on the table, and finally confirmed tomorrow's work status with Holmes.

Catherine said nothing to Holmes.

At work, sensationalism is the most dangerous thing.

Because of the careful planning, the financial and private life of each congressman was quickly exposed, and the newspaper industry ushered in a strange harvest season of the year.It cannot be said that everyone is in danger, but anyone with a discerning eye knows that Fox has encountered a major crisis this time.

The parliamentary reporters were like flies that smelled blood, launching various information and announcements non-stop.The brick-and-mortar newspaper business has been revived very well, as the newspaper reporter said when he had dinner with Holmes: "If it is like this every day, no one can say that the newspaper industry is dead."

"Of course it's impossible. But I think you can seize the moment, and it's a virtue." Mycroft didn't want to revive the newspaper tycoon's insinuation.

People who have accepted this kind of hint and are moved are now being criticized in the newspapers to pieces.It is meaningless to covet immediate interests.

So at the end of a meal, the two of them knocked down the last red wine in their glasses.The giant was a little drunk. He half-truthfully said to Holmes: "You are the most difficult person I have ever met. But I wish you all the best."

The wine glasses collided together, making a crisp crashing sound, and the scarlet blood seemed to be the prelude to Fox's downfall. The people behind the scenes had already foreseen the day when Fox fell off the stage and hit his head badly.

"In the nominal survey half an hour ago, Fox's approval rating has dropped to the lowest point in history. It is second only to... I don't need to say this, you know, I don't like to use historical people as metaphors."

Catherine is sitting in her office surrounded by a pile of papers.Family work is not easy to do, staying up late and working overtime is a necessary activity.

"Open Pandora's box, then. I think we'll be able to toast to it soon."

Holmes glanced down at the white cat, which was still lying at his feet.The black cat was locked in the toilet by the white cat. Maybe cats raised with smart people will be much smarter. Although they don’t usually show it, the black cat really needs to learn more about competing for favor.

These two cats will bring some minor changes to Mycroft's life.For example, he often has to deal with the cat hair on his trouser legs before going out, otherwise someone with a discerning eye will soon know that he is raising a cat.

This doesn't match his image of a tough guy... Hey!

"Aren't you worried about counterattack? Fox also has a plan b, although he has never formulated a plan well."

Catherine frowned.She and her staff all assessed that Plan B was related to the assassination.Perhaps this time the incident was much more serious than the previous ones, but the specifics were kept strictly confidential, and the two detectives involved did not come to a conclusion.

With a feeling of unease, Catherine said at the end of the video: "I hope you don't fake your death once and give it back to me. Otherwise, it would be too bloody."

Of course.

After cutting off the phone, the so-called 'casket' was finally opened.

This is a trap for Fox.No matter how stupid a person is, to get to where he is today, there is a limit to being stupid.Neither Catherine nor Holmes had the immediate means to completely bring down Fox.

Producing evidence at critical moments is also a necessary skill in this line of work.

As for who is that 'Pandora'... the parties are absolutely unwilling to admit it.

Sherlock Holmes returned from the Middle East all the way, gave up the big harvest of chasing after the victory, and gave up the last chance to have a good time to Irene Adler.He came back to be a leader, but if he knew that he was called 'Pandora' in private, he might not want to come back.

Choosing Sherlock to do these things is also because both Catherine and Mycroft are on the bright side.After the whitewashing, Catherine lacks certain advantages in stealth maneuvers. On the contrary, Sherlock, a once extremely high-profile person, has a lot to do after the official confirmation of 'death'.

Naturally, in the middle of the night on the [-]th, the 'casket' was opened.
