#Sherlock's Gift#

The second time I came to 221B Baker Street, Xiao Wu was already familiar with the road.Standing in front of the brown wooden door with the house number "221B", Xiao Wu knocked on the door lightly.Soon, Mrs. Hudson's bright smile appeared in front of her eyes.

"Hey, Urina, are you here to see Sherlock?" Mrs. Hudson seemed to be in a good mood, she put her arms around Xiao Wu's shoulders, "Sherlock went out early in the morning and hasn't come back yet, you can come in and taste my Freshly baked biscuits, eat and wait for him."

Smelling the tempting aroma of freshly baked biscuits on the tip of his nose, Xiao Wu licked his lips, not rejecting Mrs. Hudson's enthusiasm.She had never eaten biscuits before, but Mrs. Hudson's crafts were so good, those biscuits were still warm, sweet and delicious to chew, and satisfying.

"Thank you for your warm hospitality." After receiving the tea from Mrs. Hudson, Xiao Wu praised sincerely, "The biscuits are really delicious, and the tea is also very fragrant."

"You're welcome, I'm very happy to have your compliment." Mrs. Hudson smiled even wider. She picked out a biscuit from the plate and put it into her mouth, chatting with Xiao Wu.

Xiao Wu was really hungry. At breakfast, she only cared about bringing food to Sherlock, but she didn't eat much.Mrs. Hudson's biscuits were sweet and delicious. Xiao Wu unconsciously ate one piece after another, and finished nearly a plate of biscuits in a short while.

Seeing that the plate in front of her was almost empty, Xiao Wu's outstretched hand stopped in mid-air, she looked at Mrs. Hudson with some embarrassment, and apologized, "Sorry, I accidentally ate too much."

"Oh, it's okay Urina, there is still in the oven." Mrs. Hudson didn't care at all. She seemed very happy that someone appreciated her handicraft.

"No need, Mrs. Hudson, I'm really full." Seeing Mrs. Hudson bring another plate of biscuits, Xiao Wu hurriedly declined.

The door was suddenly pushed open, and light came in. Xiao Wu looked up, and saw the man with curly hair and windbreaker walking in.He glanced at Xiao Wu, quickly stepped forward and snatched the biscuit plate from Mrs. Hudson's hand, and sat on the sofa to eat it.

"Sherlock, this is for Urina." Mrs. Hudson said angrily, she reached out to grab the plate in Sherlock's arms, but Sherlock avoided it lightly.

"Yurina has already eaten a whole plate of biscuits, she is full." Sherlock glanced at the girl opposite, with biscuit crumbs on the corner of her mouth, and never left her eyes from beginning to end. 'What a strange girl, shouldn't she prefer the mild-tempered Mycroft?Why do you come here again and again to bother yourself? 'Sherlock hid his curiosity, pressed the things in his pockets, and leaned on the sofa in a comfortable position.

"Let's talk first, I'll go downstairs to prepare lunch." Mrs. Hudson said something, turned and left.

In the quiet room, there was only the sound of Sherlock chewing biscuits. Looking up at the door, Xiao Wu couldn't help but cleared his throat and asked, "Where's John? Didn't he come back with you?"

"Oh, he said he wanted to find a serious job, but he actually went to Barts Hospital to interview a pediatrician. It's boring." Sherlock's tone was a little dissatisfied. He chewed the biscuit, as if he was choking, and quickly reached out to take Xiao Wu away. He drank from the glass in front of him.

"That's my cup." Xiao Wu frowned, comforting herself secretly: Sherlock drinking water is Si Mao brother drinking water, thinking this way, the unnaturalness in her heart finally disappeared slowly.

"Sorry, but I really need water, I choked." Sherlock apologized, but his expression was natural. He leaned comfortably on the sofa, looked at Xiao Wu habitually, and began his deductive reasoning.Her two braids are much messier than in the morning, obviously she went out early and walked on the road for a long time.Sherlock noticed that Yurina's white shirt was stained with yellow fluff, and she should have taken the monkey out in the morning.But why, now she came to Baker Street empty-handed?

"I lied to my mom about going out for a monkey in the morning, and I actually took the monkey to Mycroft, who helped me save the owner so I could return the monkey to its owner. Oh, and we're still at Mace After eating, I ordered his favorite sirloin steak for Mycroft, I didn't eat anything, the vegetables in the restaurant are too bad." Xiao Wu knew that Sherlock was deducing herself again, so she simply put herself Tell me your itinerary, so as not to see him frowning in thought, with a serious and cold look on his face.

"Boring!" Seemingly dissatisfied that his reasoning was interrupted, Sherlock frowned slightly, took something out of his pocket and threw it at Xiao Wu's face.

Sherlock's movements were too fast, and when Xiao Wu didn't realize it at all, an old book slightly bigger than the palm of her hand hit her face with a "bang".

"It hurts!" Xiao Wu muttered dissatisfiedly, rubbing his forehead, bent down to pick up the old book at his feet.

This is a dilapidated and yellowed ancient book. Xiao Wu even smelled a faint musty smell. She carefully opened the old book in her hand and saw symbols like tadpoles drawn on it. It is a musical instrument, very similar to her 'Yuluo'.

"When I was investigating a smuggling case recently, I found this ancient book, which seems to be helpful to you." Sherlock rubbed his ears, pretending to show disgust, "I hope it can help you improve your flute skills, after all When I was at the Sherlock Holmes house, I didn't want my mother's ears to suffer."

"Thank you, I like this gift very much." Xiao Wu thanked him with a smile on his face while holding the book. It seems that Sherlock is not as unreasonable as he seems on the surface. At least, he is willing to give this seemingly useful book to him. Own.

"Don't get me wrong, this is not a gift, I just picked it up." Xiao Wu's smile was too bright, Sherlock quickly denied his kindness, and reminded Xiao Wu not to change his opinion of himself.

"No matter what you say, it's a very good gift for me." Xiao Wu didn't care, she kept smiling, and reached out to take out the Yuluo from her pocket.

"What do you want to do?" Sherlock held the plate and looked at Xiao Wu warily. She wouldn't want to start studying now, would she?

"Practice flute skills!" Xiao Wu showed a look of course, she studied the pictures in the book, pinched the flute holes on Yuluo, changed her fingering one by one, and played softly.Yuluo still only made monotonous 'ding' and 'dong' sounds, but the tone was steady and much more relaxed, not as sharp and piercing as before.

Sherlock's frowning brow eased, and he nodded in satisfaction, as if admiring Xiao Wu's cleverness.The ancient book comes from country Z, and the text on it is naturally ancient Chinese. Sherlock couldn't understand it after reading it for a long time. He thought that Yulina would have to study for a few years to understand it, but he didn't expect that she could learn it well with simple pictures. Sample.

Sherlock couldn't help but think with pride that the Sherlock Holmes children are indeed extremely smart.

……

"Ding ding, boom!" Yuluo's melody gradually became smoother. Others may not be able to notice it, but Xiao Wu can clearly feel the changes in Yuluo. Her cultivation is not high, but she can sense the spiritual power in Yuluo. , Yuluo, who was originally lifeless, suddenly seemed to come to life, and a little bit of spiritual energy gradually gathered, giving her a completely new look.

"Ding dong..." Suddenly a rushing voice came from Yuluo, and Sherlock's heart slowed down a beat. He didn't know if it was an illusion, but he felt his hands and feet were heavy with sackcloth, as if he had been hypnotized.

"Boom..." The plate in his hand fell to the ground with a crisp sound, and Sherlock regained his energy and returned to normal.

"Are you all right?" Xiao Wu hurriedly put away Yuluo, she saw Sherlock's abnormality, and secretly pleased, maybe... this book can help Yuluo recover her mana.

"My body suddenly became a little heavy." Sherlock showed a puzzled face. His body has been feeling strange recently. Last night he went to sleep in Yulina's room even more outrageously. It seems...he needs Go to Barts Hospital for a medical checkup.

Xiao Wu didn't know what Sherlock was thinking. After comforting Sherlock, she continued to pick up Yuluo and put it to her mouth.

Staring at Sherlock's face, Xiao Wu played it calmly. Following the melodious tune, Sherlock felt the helpless heaviness again, his limbs were numb, and his brain was dizzy and unable to think.

"Urina..." Come to a stop, Sherlock wanted to stop Urina, but obviously...he couldn't even yell.

Seeing Sherlock leaning on the sofa with a soft body, Xiao Wu quickly stopped playing and ran to Sherlock's side.

"Hey, wake up." Yuluo actually recovered her mana, Xiao Wu was full of excitement, she slowly pushed Sherlock, who was leaning on the back of the sofa with half-closed eyes.

The person leaning on the sofa didn't move for a long time, and Xiao Wu was a little nervous at once, maybe he didn't control the strength well and hurt Sherlock.Xiao Wu was full of nervousness, she knelt on the sofa, and slowly approached Sherlock's face with her head.

"Huh..." Sherlock suddenly opened his eyes wide. He was panting heavily, his face was pale, and he muttered in his mouth, "Stop, stop quickly."

"Sherlock, don't scare me." She didn't expect Sherlock's reaction to be so strong, and Xiao Wu blamed herself a little. She raised her hand and put it on Sherlock's chest, sliding it up and down to ease his breath.

"Fat bug, it's me." The relieved 'Sherlock' suddenly said, he stared at Xiao Wu with fiery eyes, and raised his heavy arms to hug her into his arms.

"Brother Si Mao?" Xiao Wu couldn't believe it. She stretched out her arms and hugged him back.

"Fat bug, I won't be awake for long." Smaug's voice trembled, he hugged the person in his arms tightly, rubbed her shoulder affectionately and said slowly, "Stop blowing Yuluo, it wants to take me away, I I don't want to leave you."

"Yu Luo wants to take you away?" Xiao Wu didn't understand what Brother Simao meant.

"After the fire in Iruber, my body was sleeping in the ruins. Yuluo's spiritual power brought me here. If you awaken Yuluo, it will send me back to Middle-earth." Smaug's body trembled, and he I can clearly feel that I am gradually losing control over this body.

"But this is not your body. Are you going to be trapped here forever?" Xiao Wu couldn't understand Smaug's decision. Wouldn't it be better for Yuluo to send him back to her own body?That was what he was most proud of, the stalwart dragon body.

"I would like...to stay here." At least, I can still see you, Smaug's voice was hoarse, and he was full of reluctance, but... everything was involuntary.

When Sherlock woke up from a deep sleep, he found himself hugging Yurina tightly, and he quickly pushed Yurina away, a little embarrassed.

The corners of the eyes seemed a little moist, Sherlock slowly raised his hand to wipe it, put it in his mouth and tasted it, it turned out to be salty tears.

"I actually cried?" Sherlock frowned, showing disbelief on his face.He slowly raised his head and looked at Yulina in confusion, but it was obvious that the other party was crying more exaggeratedly.

"Don't cry, I will suffer if my mother finds out when I go back." Sherlock took a few tissues from the table in a panic, and wiped Xiao Wu's face indiscriminately without tenderness.

"It hurts!" Surprised by Sherlock's clumsy movements, Xiao Wu didn't care to cry, and hurriedly took the tissue to wipe his tears.
