After making up the knife, Catherine left contentedly, leaving only Irene standing there sluggishly, and her evaluation of Catherine rose by more than one degree.

Irene Adler even began to wonder if her own thoughts were the ciphers that everyone knew.Otherwise, why would Catherine have already guessed the password she just replaced a few hours ago.

——ked.

The more you go to the center of the banquet, the more and more various childhood memories become denser.The corner of the gate is a must for hide-and-seek, but at that time Catherine could only watch Mr. Nolan and Sophia interact with each other.

More often, Catherine can't even watch.The young Catherine would be locked in a dark basement, and she would spend a long time in confinement only by guessing what Mr. Nolan looked like.

So many years later, the image of that elegant man in a three-piece suit is still clearly engraved in Catherine's mind.What Catherine told everyone, that she didn't remember Mr. Nolan, or even know Mr. Nolan, was a blatant lie.

The truth of the matter is that, in countless dark childhood dreams, Catherine expected to have a father who would hold her up and play games of raising her up in the sun in a less gentlemanly way, or with a beard, or The cheeks that hadn't had time to clean up rubbed against her.

But these are luxuries.

Even Catherine herself was very surprised. When she returned to this manor after many years, she could still remember many details of that year, but many things had changed due to time.

"You shouldn't be here. I very much doubt whether you can control your emotions, Miss Nolan."

Mycroft didn't know when he stood behind Catherine.He shouldn't have appeared in this place, after all, this is already the interior of the manor, where the guests who observe the ceremony should stop.What he shouldn't do is to appear behind Catherine on such an occasion, because Catherine is not very happy to see him at this moment of remembrance.

"So what? Control your emotions, or get out of control, I think I can bear what I do. And...you don't have the right or the obligation to persuade me."

Don't mind your own business!

It's like what Mycroft called Catherine—"Miss Nolan"—the name contains warnings and reminders, alienation and calculations, which are not very good feelings.

But this Holmes in front of you is such a person, you sometimes feel that you are very close to him, and then you find that you are just being sentimental.You can't see through him because he never opens up.

But... are they not each other?

Catherine raised her forehead, and she was not in a position to accuse others, especially since she had just dug a small hole for Mycroft.

"Remember what we said before? I will help you control Irene's risk. If you can solve her problem yourself, then you don't have to fulfill our agreement.... You must be working very hard to break it Find out the password of Irene's mobile phone, because your brother is really in love as I said, and because Moriarty is really involved in this conspiracy."

Catherine turned her head and stood up straighter. She had to be inviolable, because the banquet had just begun.

The morning sun was very good, and the girl in front of me had a rare pair of beautiful high-heeled shoes on board.Her ankles were slender, and she was very thin.Her hair is beautiful, the mysterious black waterfall is flowing, and the black gemstones on her neck are like the splashes of the waterfall. As long as Catherine dresses up seriously, it is no doubt that she will become the focus of the crowd.

"I very much hope that you can judge me from a better perspective, instead of always making the worst plan... that is a very insecure expression. Well, I think I still have to admit what you said, I really do You are working hard, and what you are doing is to prevent me from cracking the password successfully."

"It seems that you are indeed doing it. I thought the right to choose things has been handed over to your brother?" Catherine interrupted Mycroft directly.

The environment of Nolan Manor made her feel very depressed.Just like the dream that was always repeated, at Mr. Nolan's memorial service, dark clouds gathered above his head, making people breathless.

Mycroft did not linger on the previous question.Following Catherine's blurred gaze, he sighed in an aria in a low voice: "Over the years, things have changed."

Although Catherine was a little annoyed that this person standing by her side affected her to regulate her emotions.But she had to admit that Mycroft was right.

——The blooming flowers in the manor were replaced with carnations of the same style.The story of a hundred flowers blooming in summer has become a swan song.And at this moment... Catherine caressed the carvings on the wall... These wall decorations, which were supposed to be complex patterns, also became different carnation shapes.

Nolan Manor is not what it used to be.Not surprisingly, the last real Nolan passed away today, and everything is over.

But Catherine was not accustomed to admitting such things.She turned her head and smiled coldly: "Things are right and people are wrong? Everything is closed? You old people always don't believe that miracles will happen."

Catherine turned her head, pointed at the large buildings of Nolan Manor, and raised her head: "Even if there is no miracle to save everything, I can cause a disaster. How could this kind of thing end so easily?"

"Then... I am very happy to invite you to enjoy today's ethics drama."

Mycroft watched Catherine as she spoke.When she was at Nolan Manor, Catherine was unexpectedly personal.She shed some pretense and became a little more real.

For example, at this time, Mycroft finally saw clearly that Catherine is a right-handed person through and through, rather than her left-handed or right-handed person who has always been inclined to deceive others.

For another example, what this little girl has been trying to hide is that her mastery of magic has improved, and maybe she will become a perfect magician in the near future—after all, she hides her wand better, maybe What kind of magic was used so that I couldn't find a place to hide things.

And... she caused a lot of trouble for Sherlock to crack the code during the conversation with Irene Adler.

Holmes nodded in satisfaction.The complicated thoughts were locked in the memory palace again, the more you know, the closer you are to the answer.

"Wait and see."

While speaking, it was time for the wedding to begin.And Catherine's position is the first place the bride must pass through when she appears.

Unsurprisingly, the two people standing at the door met Miss Sophia Nolan who was surrounded by bridesmaids.

Almost at the same time, Mycroft's basic deductive method showed the state of the opposite Miss Nolan.

-drinking, tears, big movements, just getting dressed in a few hours = no expectations for marriage.Looking around at the wedding venue, asking about the time, acting in a self-defensive manner = not seeing her for a few years, Sophia's fear of Victoria is even stronger.

But what Catherine saw was another scene.

——Advanced custom-made wedding dresses and jewelry = a pampered life.Surrounded by female companions, surrounded by her but with disdainful eyes = lack of sufficient majesty.Cowardly, educated but showing a certain fear = this is fear of Victoria.

All right.At least on the one about Victoria, Catherine and Mycroft agree a bit.

Two people attended Sofia's wedding, each without a male or female partner.But at this time, they stood together in a tacit understanding, facing Sophia and her female companions together very harmoniously.

"Hello, Miss Nolan. This is my female companion, Catherine. Catherine is a student at Oxford University. This is the protagonist of the wedding. I don't think there is any need to introduce anything."

A thoughtful introduction makes people feel good, and the so-called thoughtful is to be able to introduce one or two personal backgrounds, or hobbies and specialties.

Mycroft did such a good job that everyone assumed Catherine was indeed his lady companion.Even if their attire lacks a certain uniformity.

——Catherine is wearing a dress that is complicated enough to attend a wedding. It is not as rich and luxurious as a cabbage, but the design of this dress is very suitable for the bride's wedding dress. Even with Catherine's makeup, it gives people a kind of strong hint.

And Mycroft's outfit is completely ordinary formal attire for formal occasions.The wedding guests, at least in terms of the choice of dresses, did not pay the same attention at all.

Fortunately... they are all used to talking nonsense on different occasions.

Catherine smiled without any sense of disobedience, and she approached Sophia intimately, expressing that she wanted to be pleased with Sophia - the bouquet held by Sophia's bridesmaid could also make Catherine praise several times.

The scene quickly heated up, and the bride was still a little sullen when she went out, and everyone was happy to open a bottle and drink.

time does not wait.Sophia used this excuse to get rid of the two people standing at the door unexpectedly.

Including the bridesmaids and the staff on duty, maybe only Sophia is still wondering why these two guests are standing at the door blocking the way.

It wasn't because of Sofia's calmness or anything, though.Unfortunately, due to sisterhood, Sophia... may have fallen in love with the same man as Catherine.

The same sisters are related, and the sisters are equally slow in accepting their sensitivity to liking a man.Sofia had a crush on Mycroft in a three-piece suit.

Although he was afraid of his working state, this favor was suppressed very low, but at the same time, Mycroft's puzzle-solving conversation could also make Sophia's fear weaken a lot.

In addition, Mycroft is far away from others, and his mystery can also give Sophia more room for imagination.So knowing that it was impossible, all kinds of emotions turned into clear and silent concerns.

Sophia has already moved forward on this matter, but she still can't stop thinking about it in her mind - the female companion brought by Mr. Holmes is still a college student, she may graduate from Oxford in the future, she can become her secretary, or there are more possibilities!

Intellectually, Sophia knew that this assumption was not valid.Mycroft's female partners kept changing, and he never showed any inclination. This is his brilliance, and outsiders don't even know whether he likes a man or a woman.

And she... Sophia Nolan is also among the ranks of this outsider.

alright.Miss Catherine and Mr. Holmes, who watched Sophia leave, reached another consensus—Miss Nolan fell in love with Mycroft.

—Damn sister synaesthesia!When they met, they didn't recognize each other and cried, but they confirmed that they fell in love with the same man.

"Okay." Mycroft's smile seemed a little awkward to Catherine, and what he said afterwards made Catherine furious: "It seems that the ethical drama you mentioned has already begun, Miss Nolan .”
