[Comprehensive] Aunt sweeping the floor

"I will be transferred to complete my work the day after tomorrow. So I can't follow up William's case from beginning to end. There are many puzzles in it, so I need your help." Catherine said familiarly The menu made its own choices.

Catherine handed the menu to Sherlock, and said, "You are the only consulting detective in the world. If I entrust this case to you, I think I can work for your brother with confidence."

"You made a deal with the fat man?" If that could be called a deal - Sherlock gave a mocking smile.

"Yes. It's not convenient for me to disclose the specific content. But one of them is regular attendance. This is a death order... so this means that by the time I come back, you may have concluded this case .”

"You have a reason to fall on Fatty... The previous murder cases were really boring. You didn't use any brains other than showing off your knife skills and background resources."

Dim sum is served quickly in the tea room.Catherine also nodded frankly.She didn't intend to hide it from everyone from the beginning.Murder is a fact, if she frightens Watson because of this, it can only be a pity.

Before the military doctor swallowed a mouthful of snacks, he coughed non-stop due to Sherlock's words.

Catherine thoughtfully poured him a cup of tea. From her pale fingers and slender wrists, it was not clear that she had the ability to kill people.The military doctor looked up, silently looked at Catherine's pretty face, and then thought about who she was working for, so that he could comfort himself.A smart head is the key to victory, which may involve some hidden reasons, and Catherine may not want to do such a cruel thing.

"I'm so sorry." Catherine didn't look up at Sherlock.She started to get a cup of tea for herself, looked at the tea stems floating up and down in the cup, put on a fortune-telling posture and said, "It's just a scandal involved. Once the scandal of the Duke's family gets out, it will definitely have a big impact. I think now There's nothing wrong with doing it this way... After all, someone has to give an answer."

"William and you are just adoptive father and daughter?"

"You should know that if you ask the person concerned, you will only get one kind of lie or another." Catherine didn't want to answer such a personal question.She could tell that this question was just Sherlock mocking Mycroft with some private stuff.

"Say what you want to say."

Catherine could of course use flashbacks on Sherlock if she wanted to, as if she used it at the crime scene.Some of the information there, combined with what Catherine saw at the poker banquet more than ten days ago, are all pointing to a clear answer.

"That George and William may have some relatives. DNA identification is indispensable. I also have reasons to suspect that he may have appeared at the scene at that time. In addition... you can research on superpowers, Morrie Artie's subordinates are no longer ordinary people."

"In the morgue records of Barts Hospital, there have been such accidental deaths every month since August. The frequency of these cases should be regular 1/3/2/3/4, not the date Not a password."

"But around William, you've only died once a month recently. The statistical error caused by the large base is not as complicated as you think."

"These deaths are not communal."

"But the person who did it may be the same."

"You fought him?"

"He killed someone in front of me." Catherine frowned, and said to Sherlock seriously: "Believe me, that picture is not that beautiful. I can only tell you that the death of this person who died in front of me The law is also different from the previous ones, somewhat adapted to local conditions."

"What are you going to Barts Hospital for?" Countless entries and information flashed before Sherlock's eyes. At this time, there is no need for a memory palace. What Sherlock has to do is to filter out the information he needs.

Any seemingly irrelevant clues may be related to the case. Sometimes the clue is hidden in the weather, sometimes it is the age of the deceased, and sometimes it may just be a flower on the road.

"Do you suspect that the previous corpse was swapped? The corpse truck caught fire a few days ago?" Sherlock quickly found the information Catherine hinted at.

"It's a pity that so many donated organs are reimbursed at once."

That case was closed by Sherlock himself. The body truck did not catch fire naturally, but someone deliberately murdered the organ recipient.As long as those patients with organ failure cannot get their own organs on time, they can only die a painful natural death. "This is a good starting point. I promise, you can find traces of old friends from inside, um... and there may be different surprises."

It's not a matter of days since Catherine followed up on this question.Since November, this matter has been an important part of Catherine's schedule, but until now, she has grasped the key to the problem belatedly.

"besides?"

"Other than that, I won't create that kind of useless case for you. You can also convey this to your brother, since he really doesn't trust my assurance."

Sherlock just snorted.

Both of them knew that this time Sherlock still failed to find any clues from Catherine.

Sherlock restrained himself a moment before he made sure not to turn his head to look at Watson sitting next to him.He can still read from the teacups: porcelain, modern artifacts, water temperature 176 degrees Fahrenheit, slightly worn edges, teacup lockers are ordinary synthetic wood stand cabinets.

Catherine's cover skill is maxed out.Even if other places are occasionally rough and there are subtle loopholes, but from the perspective of the basic deduction method, Sherlock can only see a series of question marks all the time-it is even more difficult than Irene Adler.

——? ? ? ? ? ?

Catherine had said all she had to say.It also happened to be at this time that her temporary mobile phone received a greeting from Mycroft.

ah!That guy didn't simply greet Catherine.At the same time, he also arranged specific work for Catherine's first field trip.Is the British government all this idle?This kind of thing that obviously only needs to be handed over to the people below must be sent from his own mobile phone?

Catherine scanned the information at a glance, and then turned off the temporary phone.

"Catherine, have you changed your phone again?"

"That's not true. In fact, my last phone is still being held by someone. We all know who that someone is, don't we? Military doctor, sometimes I really think that guy is a controlling big man." Demon King."

Watson was amused by Catherine's exaggerated comparison.They then exchanged some experiences on feeding cats.Sherlock just stared at the tea on the side, quiet and abnormal.

Catherine put away the phone that Mycroft gave her. The function of the phone was so simple that it looked like a smart phone, but in addition to making calls and sending text messages, well, maybe there was an additional positioning function.

"Then it's time for me to leave. I wish my trip well... No, no, in fact, I didn't leave London this time." Catherine stood up, and she took out a few pounds from her wallet, Put it under your teacup.

Before leaving, she gave Sherlock another hint: "Mr. Holmes, pay attention to all the mirrors you can see, that may be the key to saving lives."

Afterwards, a certain culprit left the tea room with a relaxed attitude.As for their agreement to send Catherine home, this is of course impossible.Catherine also has to go to her studio to do subsequent preparations.

[Kingsman secret service organization.Contact task. ]

Such a message is as simple as possible.Besides, Catherine was not given any chance to go abroad as agreed.This situation made Catherine a little dissatisfied.

But dissatisfaction can be suppressed.After careful recollection, Catherine still finds this situation very miraculous.She was sure that she hadn't seen any institutional information related to this spy agency when she searched for the London-based forces.

In other words, the independence and concealment of this intelligence agency are higher than the mi6 controlled by Mycroft.

At the same time, this must be an intelligence agency with a long history.

Three days later, Catherine stood in front of a tailor shop wearing her usual trench coat.

In the British cultural environment, the status and income of tailors are quite enviable, especially the high-end tailors serving the royal family, who have rich heritage and the pride of serving the royal family.This reminded Catherine of Her Majesty's hatmaker. The long-lived queen has replaced three hatmakers.The thing is, both hat-making and tailoring are lifelong careers.

However, the tailor shop where Catherine is located is obviously not just for the past.He is also responsible for customizing suits for some wealthy people.Of course, the cost of customization is expensive, and this place is very suitable for the latent needs of the agents.

Catherine stood at the door of the store eager to prepare her fists. She brewed her emotions, and then opened the door and entered the store.

The times have developed to this day, and suits are no longer the only needs for male customers.This store doesn't look as conservative and nostalgic as his appearance, and it offers customized suits for women.It's just that there are not many women who need this kind of advanced custom-made suits in their lives, so when Catherine made her request to the clerk, the clerk still gave her a sneaky look.

——The joy of public travel is that you don’t need the best, only the most expensive.Catherine loves to talk about things that can cost someone money.

But Catherine could also bet cat food on black and white bread that none of the clothes on McColloft's body were bought from this store.

This was the best tailor in London, and Holmes had not chosen the best tailor.The problem is clearly there, and it seems that the people in charge of our mi6 are not unaware of the problem of this store.

"Lounge No. [-] is empty, I'll take you to record the data." The clerk's service is very good, and the decoration here is enough to make people feel good.

"Thank you." Catherine followed the tailor into the so-called No. [-] fitting room.

It's no surprise that Catherine is behaving like she's having a suit made for the first time.As a girl who grew up in the fashion capital, Paris did not teach Catherine to be a powerful fashion connoisseur. She seemed more suitable to be a young man who took the street route.

"Okay. Ma'am, your back curve is very beautiful, this suit must be very exciting." Catherine looked up at her tailor-this temperament should not be a simple clothing worker.This can also be seen from the calluses on his palms-long-term training with modern machinery, and the muscle curve of his elbows shows that he also has a good fighting foundation.The fabric of the suit worn by this person is very different from the samples in the store.

Catherine opened her mouth to ask: "Does this fabric on your body provide customization?"

"...This is our work clothes, not for high society."

"But it's bulletproof material. Quite the contrary, I thought it might suit me."

From the moment you walk in the door.Catherine observed the entire layout of the dressing room.The weird thing about the arrogance here is that changing mirror.There are still subtleties in the texture of this non-double-sided mirror, which is a bit like some kind of high-tech equipment.

Catherine wiped the frame of the mirror with her hand.The left hand flashed back a short message indicating that it was a giant fingerprinting mechanism.Many people have used this mirror to open this magical mechanism.

The people shown in the flashbacks have one thing in common—nice suits, gentlemanly looks, sexy waistlines.

Cough cough, it is better to cross out the last item.Catherine recorded the faces with a relatively high appearance rate through flashback early.The task that Mycocroft gave her was more of a test of the waters, and there was a lot of freedom in the initial contact. Under the condition of ensuring her own safety, Catherine would not have any bad effects if she wanted to come.
