Zhang Jiayu has always felt that Sherlock is more difficult to get along with than McCoff. After all, McCoff is in a high position and has his own sense of responsibility, so it is easier to reason about some things.

And Sherlock, in all his information, shows that the other party is a standard 'genius', a 'genius' who does not understand the world.

Following Lestrade up the stairs, Zhang Jiayu quickly concealed his inner fluctuations, and when he looked up, he saw the person he was going to meet on this trip.

Sherlock stood by the window, visibly waiting.Seeing the two people coming up, he asked in surprise,

"Lestrade, you have an extra servant?"

Zhang Jiayu smiled friendly at the other party.

Sherlock raised his eyebrows but said, "It doesn't look like a follower."

Zhang Jiayu's smile was a little stiff, so that's why he didn't like staying with Sherlock.

"This is my partner, Tom." Facing Sherlock, Lestrade said helplessly.

Sherlock's attention was all on the case, and he glanced at the unimportant people, then smoothly looked away, bargaining with Lestrade.

The neglected Zhang Jiayu didn't say anything, just sat down, waited quietly, and glanced at the person sitting on the sofa beside him, who was very strange and did not appear in his intelligence network.

Zhang Jiayu said with a smile, "Hi, I'm a police officer from Scotland Yard, you can call me Tom."

"Watson." Watson extended his hand politely, and continued, "Sherlock's new co-tenant."

"He's happy to meet you." Zhang Jiayu shook each other's hand and said very sincerely.He was looking forward to Mycroft's expression when he knew that his younger brother had an extra partner.

"Me too."

During the discussion of the case, Sherlock glanced at the two people who seemed to want to talk happily, and said suddenly, "Tom?"

Zhang Jiayu looked up at Sherlock in surprise, he thought that the other party would ignore him as the background board.

"Are you a police officer from Scotland Yard?" Sherlock asked scrutinizingly.

"Of course, without a doubt." Zhang Jiayu replied with a smile.

"Newcomer, I just joined the job today. I was not in London before. I came back from the United States, which should be New York. And, good birth, regular living habits, rich, strong self-control, and was close to a high position. So, why would you To be a policeman?"

"Sherlock Holmes, I've known you for a long time."

Zhang Jiayu was able to conceal his mental activities, and even pretended to be flawless in his micro-expression, but before coming, Lestrade didn't tell him who he came to see, so he didn't change a suit of clothes for him time.

So, he didn't try to cover up the custom-made clothing, the place name watch on his wrist, and the time difference on the watch that he didn't bother to adjust, and the other party recognized it at a glance.

It's just that Zhang Jiayu has never experienced such straightforward criticism. The corners of his mouth were a little stiff, but he returned to normal and continued with a smile, "I did go abroad recently, and it was New York."

As he spoke, he adjusted his watch back to normal time, and continued, "You're right about everything else, but there's no law saying that someone like me can't be a policeman, is there?"

"As for the reason, I said it was for ideals, do you believe it?" Zhang Jiayu still said with a smile, his face was calm.

"What did you do before?" Sherlock suddenly leaned over and asked quickly.He even turned around the other party vigilantly, his nose moved slightly.

"Working in the government." Zhang Jiayu replied calmly.Even though he had just obtained this identity, he remembered all the information McCoff gave him, including all his experiences and social networks.

"doing what?"

"Working as an assistant in the cabinet, dealing with some clerical matters." Zhang Jiayu said with a smile, then glanced at Lestrade, who was silent beside him, and continued, "Does your question have something to do with this case?"

"Sherlock?" Lestrade asked suspiciously.

Ignoring Lestrade next to him, Sherlock suddenly smiled, and said to Zhang Jiayu, "Did you know that the group of Diogenes clubs like to use a special kind of incense? It is said that it can make people clear their minds .”

This time Zhang Jiayu really felt that his tooth hurt a little. When he went to see McCoff yesterday, he went to the Diogenes Club.

"You know the founder of the club, right?" Sherlock looked at him sharply.

Of course Zhang Jiayu knew that Holmes Mycroft was the founder of the Diogenes Club, and that club gathered three quarters of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs officials and more than half of the senior councilors.

He smiled and said, "I don't know him well. I went there yesterday to find my former boss, MP Chester Mitford."

Chester Mitford is indeed his immediate superior in this capacity, and indeed a member of the club.Mycroft wasn't stupid enough to just add his own name to his fake identity.

Sherlock frowned, but couldn't find any clues, so he looked away.Compared with a spy suspected of being his mortal enemy, the imminent case was more attractive. He said to Lestrade who was waiting for him, "I don't take a police car."

Lestrade shrugged normally and replied, "I'll ask Tom to send the message to your phone later, then let's go first."

Zhang Jiayu nodded and looked at Sherlock and said, "Tell me your mobile phone number."

Sherlock replied blankly, "I usually don't answer calls or text messages."

Zhang Jiayu was not angry, and asked the people around him directly, "Watson, let's leave a contact information, I will send you the information later..."

"Okay." Watson glanced at Sherlock and finally nodded.

The matter of the case was imminent, and the two left Baker Street without any delay.

"He does that to everyone, but trust me, he's definitely a crime-solving genius." Lestrade said while driving, "His attitude is not aimed at you."

Zhang Jiayu nodded, "I don't care."

It's just that he feels that the other party's attitude is definitely aimed at him, after all, the other party chose to ignore his existence at the beginning.And definitely because of Mycroft.

Cases where Sherlock joins basically have nothing to do with the police.What's more, Zhang Jiayu joined the job on the first day.So he can basically leave work on time.

Just seeing the small black car parked in front of the police station, Zhang Jiayu was powerless to complain.

He took out his mobile phone and made a call, then said, "Mycroft, I'm hungry."

"Then let's have a meal together." Mycroft replied with a smile.

Zhang Jiayu put down the phone with satisfaction, and then got into the car.There is a special car to pick you up, and someone treats you to dinner, why doesn't he go?What's more, McCoff has a good taste in food research, and he can definitely eat delicious food with the other party.

Sure enough, Zhang Jiayu was very satisfied with the meal. If it wasn't for the person sitting across from him, he would have been more satisfied.

"What did you call me here for?" Zhang Jiayu finally asked after eating the last bite.

Mycroft said normally, "Eat."

"And?" Zhang Jiayu felt that if he believed the other party, he would be a fool. "You are so busy, just to invite me to dinner?"

"Have you met Sherlock?" Mycroft said methodically.

"I've seen it." Zhang Jiayu took a sip from his wine glass while talking, thinking of Sherlock, he felt that he needed a sip of wine.

Putting down his glass, he continued, "Do you know that your brother is obsessed with solving crimes?"

"I know, it's better than being obsessed with other things." Mycroft shrugged helplessly and said, "He treats me like a sworn enemy, a joke between brothers."

"Don't you know anything about your desire to control?" Zhang Jiayu asked in surprise.He felt that as Mycroft's younger brother, it was good enough that Sherlock only regarded him as a mortal enemy instead of trying to kill him.

Mycroft pouted, he didn't want to continue talking about this topic, he continued, "Moriarty is eyeing Sherlock."

"Are you so concerned about Moriarty's news?" Zhang Jiayu said with a malicious smile.

"I am very concerned about the news of the whole of the UK." McCoff replied as a matter of course.

Zhang Jiayu smiled and continued, "Tell me, what are you trying to do to lure me to Scotland Yard?"

"About Sherlock, help me take care of him." Mycroft said with a smile, "There is no need to take special care of him, just by the way."

Zhang Jiayu asked suspiciously, "Why?"

"Maximize the benefits." Mycroft said with a smile.

Zhang Jiayu pouted and replied, "You are really straightforward."

It was too much for the other party to ask him to take care of his younger brother even though he had already given him to Tunnel Scotland Yard, "I'm not a nanny."

"Just treat it as if I owe you a favor." Mycroft still said with a smile.

Zhang Jiayu knew that the other party was serious, he thought for a while, then nodded and said, "Yes."

"It's just that I need to know whether this favor is owed by Holmes or the British government?" Zhang Jiayu asked with a smile.

"You can't be too greedy." Mycroft shook his head to remind the other party.

"Actually, it's almost the same." Zhang Jiayu felt that he was quite content, and he reminded the other party with a smile, "But my favor is not easy to repay, you should think clearly."

"Sherlock is not easy to deal with." Mycroft said empathetically.As for favors, he always has a way to use them where they should be used.

Zhang Jiayu shrugged and replied, "He already suspects that I am doing things for you."

"How come?" Mycroft asked in surprise, and then suddenly realized, "Damn incense."

Neither of them expected that Zhang Jiayu would meet Sherlock on the first day of employment, otherwise McCoff would probably be more cautious.

After leaving the restaurant, Zhang Jiayu looked at McCoff who was leaving directly in the car, with a blank expression on his face.It was agreed to pick up and drop off, why can't he let him take a taxi back by himself?

But, for a wizard, distance is never an issue.

But before he had time to apparate himself, Zhang Jiayu saw a taxi passing in front of him, and a familiar person was sitting in the car.
