The big winner in life [Comprehensive]
Chapter 148 The Goldfish of the British Empire [34]
Ten-year-old Sherlock and five-year-old Apple Pie took the train home, and Sherlock was silent all the way. This incident left a deep impression on him, and it was the starting point of his consulting detective career, really.
The little Gu Qing held his brother's hand and held on halfway, then fell asleep leaning on Sherlock's shoulder amidst the sound of the train tracks.Sherlock felt a heavy weight on his shoulders, returned to reality from contemplation, and said in a low voice, "A child is a child." However, he moved his position clumsily and let his brother lie on the chair with his pillow on his head. Sleeping on his knees, he stroked his younger brother's curly hair like his own - among the three Sherlock Holmes brothers, Sherlock and Gu Qing both have black curly hair, but Gu Qing's curly hair is not as curly as Sherlock's, but this does not prevent Sherlock from always Automatically put him in his own camp, especially after he got into the 'bad habit' of confronting Mycroft--muttered in a low voice: "Pie, you're right, they are all goldfish, I don't Don't be as knowledgeable as a goldfish."
"Their brothers are so cute. The elder brother is taking care of the younger brother."
Some passengers were so cute that they didn't want to, and they made louder voices, and were glared at by Sherlock viciously, but they didn't know that it really had no effect.
"Do you think we made my brother sleep because of the noise? It's even cuter."
Sherlock originally wanted to play them to tell them to shut up, but he was really afraid of disturbing his brother's sleep, so he kept staring at them until they stopped looking this way.
The two brothers left home early in the morning, and it was already evening when they came back, but they had already thought about this problem and left a note for Mommy. Besides, Sherlock often doesn't come back for a whole day after going out recently. It's not a problem for the curious younger brother to go out together.However, there is still a problem-
"Mycroft will definitely sue Mommy when he sees it!"
Sherlock held his brother's hand, pouted and said.
"Charlie?"
"what happened?"
Gu Qing wanted to say that they didn't hide it from McCoff at all, but considering his current study progress, he hadn't come here yet, and just about to say something else, he saw McCoff, "I saw Mike! Mike !"
"Don't call him!" Sherlock confronted Mycroft again, and he also knew that he was no match for McCoff now, and now he didn't want McCoff to know what happened in London!
It's a pity that it was already too late. Mycroft, who had followed them all the way back from London and was waiting on the way home before them, had of course seen them.He walked over in a relaxed manner, "Mummy asked me to come out and find you."
Sherlock snorted, "Did we find the candy store? Oh, the candy store owner's daughter likes you, she almost knocked you out and—"
"Sherlock!" Mycroft stopped before Sherlock said anything more or on a larger scale, but he noticed that before Sherlock said these words, he had put The younger brother covered his ears, and didn't continue to talk about this topic, "If you are like this, Mommy won't believe that you are going out to find materials for experiments."
Sherlock was even more upset because of the meaning of knowing + reluctance not to report in McCoff's words. When his younger brother threw himself into McCoff's arms and let him walk on his back, his mouth was so pouted that he could hang a soy sauce bottle, but Instead of teaching his weak brother a lesson, he warned Mycroft: "You have to keep Patrick on your back, who knows if you don't have the strength to eat sweets today!"
Little Gu Qing lay on the elder brother's back and whispered to him: "Mike, I can secretly give you my fruit candy."
The gums that McCoff just had the treatment yesterday are still aching, and when he thinks of the fruit hard candy of his younger brother, he becomes #十动然激#, and even pulls Mommy in, "What Mommy said for a week It'll be over soon." He didn't want to turn one week into two.
"Well, I wanted to say that I left you a piece of sponge cake yesterday. It seems that only Xiali and I ate it." Gu Qing happily told Sherlock that Sherlock didn't like it himself, but he was very happy to eat it. To be angry with McCoff, I made an agreement with my brother.
Mycroft: "..."
Of course, the eldest brother would not "sit and wait for death" like this, if he wanted him not to complain to Mommy, he would have to pretend, so he took his younger brothers to the pond to catch frogs, under the pretense that he caught frogs for Gu Qing.Dissecting a frog is an entry-level experiment. Mycroft was caught by Sherlock before. At that time, the relationship between their brothers was still very good. Mycroft was directed by Sherlock who stayed on the shore in the pond, and he detested this frog. It wasn't big enough, or the frog wasn't a good color, and at that time, the red beard was still breathing stupidly by the side.
Now there is an extra apple pie, but the red beard is gone.
Sherlock took off his shoes and socks, rolled up his trouser legs, and said to his brother before he went down to the pond: "No matter what happens to the frog I catch later, you have to say it's good, you know?"
Gu Qing took Mycroft's hand, tilted his head and asked his second brother, "Why?"
McCoff didn't speak, he just needed to be silent, and the mysterious silence was enough.
Sherlock turned his face away and yelled at his brother: "Look at the water in the pond. The water in this pond is stagnant water, the main source of which is rainwater. Have you seen the color of the water? It's emerald green, which is a sign of aging water. Is there a green film floating there, is it disgusting? That's because there's a lot of blue and green algae in the water, well, I'll put a test tube back later and put it under a microscope for you to see. Now, you know my Do you mean it?"
Little Gu Qing nodded solemnly: "I see."
When Sherlock stepped into the pond, he heard his brother cheering: "Charlie is great!"
Sherlock's face flushed suddenly, and he turned his head and yelled at his brother on the shore: "Send you little fool!" Such a shout made him look like a fool.
Mycroft almost wanted to laugh, but he held back to avoid #友军阵伤#, but he still laughed out loud, but it hurt his gums and the laughter turned into a hiss.
Sherlock, who was originally ashamed and turned into anger, suddenly became happy, and said "It deserves it!" before going to find the frog.
"It hurts?" Little Gu Qing asked Mycroft as if she felt empathy, clutching her cheeks with baby fat. McCoff looked down at him, as if he felt that the younger brother was asking nonsense.He also felt that he should learn a lesson from himself. Mycroft didn't ask his younger brother to stop eating sweets, as long as he didn't eat it in front of him during the week.However, I didn't wait for my younger brother to learn from the pain, but——
"It doesn't matter, I have to change my teeth anyway, and Mommy said that my teeth are of good quality. After changing my teeth, according to the principle of probability, it will become better. Mike, am I using it right?"
"My Mommy gave me the name Mycroft, so you can keep using it until I die." McCoff even blamed his younger brother for sweets, no, it's "toothache is not a disease, it hurts and kills", by the way Lament again the genetic difference between the brothers.
——Well, in a few more years, the eldest son of the Holmes family will lament more than one genetic difference. His own hairline is tragic, but his younger brothers' are as strong as ever. It's too cruel.
Sherlock quickly caught a frog, and the younger brother would naturally praise him: "Xiali is amazing! Xiali is the best!"
If it weren't for that little episode at the beginning, Sherlock would have liked his brother's compliment, but now he really would rather not have it, and gave him a glare to tell him to shut up.
After catching another one, Sherlock didn't want to be a clown anymore.However, he still brought test tubes and straws from the tree house (his secret base) not far from the pond, filled a test tube with water quality and waited to show it to his younger brother. lunch basket.
Mycroft looked at the time and felt that it was almost time, so he called his brothers to go home.
Sherlock carried his shoes and lunch basket and got muddy all over his body. It looked like he had been hanging out all day, but Gu Qing was clean. It's not surprising, everyone knows that he has a clean freak. What about symptoms, but Sherlock still messed up her hair, and also lost a button of her small suit, so she had to pretend to be decent.
The three brothers went home like this, the sun was setting and it was shining on them, casting shadows so long that it was almost impossible to distinguish between you and me.
When they arrived home, little Gu Qing, who was lying on McCoff's back, asked a soft question: "Mike, Xiali, have you ever eaten frog meat?"
Mycroft: "... Sherlock, don't try to bring Patrick!"
After hearing what his brother said, Sherlock, who was ready to move, snorted: "True knowledge comes from practice!"
He's still very reasonable. Mycroft knew that he couldn't stop this matter. He could only do it under the premise of asking them to find out the information.
But the eldest brother of the Holmes family can rest assured that in my big foodie country, everything that flies in the sky, swims in the water, or runs on the ground, as long as it is edible, can’t escape. It’s not like the current Great Britain. The most famous cuisine is 有#死不省盖# known as star-gazing pie, and eel jelly.
When I got home, Mummy was so worried that she put her arms around the apple pie that she went out with her brother for the first time and looked at it again and again. After finding that nothing happened, she asked what Sherlock had done with her brother, so she let the two of them go to bed. Went upstairs to shower and change clothes.
Mommy didn't seem to notice anything. After watching his brothers go upstairs, Mycroft turned his head to look at Mommy, and was stared at by Mommy viciously.Mommy wasn't tricked, she just didn't say it.
Mycroft felt quite innocent, but he couldn't confront Mommy right now, so he said, "I'll talk to them."
"You'd better do this, Mike." Mommy turned around and took Daddy, who didn't know why, to prepare dinner, and heard Daddy say in the kitchen, "Kids like to play, so don't be angry with our beautiful Mrs. Holmes." , Mycroft couldn't help but rolled his eyes.
After dinner, it was Mycroft who delivered the pie to bed this time.
After the younger brother went to bed, the elder brother sat by the bed, smiled at the younger brother with the curly hair on his head, and asked, "Shall I read you fairy tales?"
Don't think that the Holmes family doesn't have this kind of book. Gu Qing fished out a book from the bedside table and handed it to Mycroft: "Here you are."
McCoff raised his eyebrows and took it over, with a look of disgust on his face: "It was from Aunt Marilyn. She doesn't like us, and she gives the exact same gift every Christmas, without even taking off the label."
"Oh." Gu Qing didn't care, he patted the quilt and looked very expectant, "I want to hear Mike read the article "Snow White", with both voice and emotion."
Mycroft looked at the younger brother who made such an unreasonable request, "No one taught me how to read fairy tales with emotion, or you can show me, or you can tell me that today you and Sherlock will go to London by train. What have you done?"
"Mike, you know." Gu Qing pulled down the quilt to make room for McCoff.In fact, Mycroft was quite happy to start this mode of lying in the same bed and secretly talking about things with the younger brother. He took off the vest and hung it aside, and then lay on his side - the smell of the younger brother's bed was very good. , the smell of sweet milk—putting his arms around his younger brother's body, "Okay, now we can talk, little guy."
Gu Qing rubbed his elder brother's cheek, this is really a novel experience, so he started talking to him about today's #伦敦一日旅游#.Mycroft is clear about most things, but he is still very happy to listen to his younger brother, but #天有防风风云,人有早晚停福#, don’t forget the other party in the day trip——
Sherlock noticed something was wrong when Mycroft sent apple pie to bed. He dawdled for 5 minutes, and finally couldn't help but go upstairs, and then... was watched by Daddy and brushed his teeth for another 3 minutes, After his father left, he heard the sound of his father going downstairs, and after another minute, he dawdled to his younger brother's room.
Oh, he didn't climb the window this time, so he didn't want to give Mycrof another chance to sue Mommy.But when he got to his younger brother's room, he not only saw his brother so close, but also heard his younger brother talking about the scene of the crime. He immediately became angry from embarrassment, threw off his shoes and flew straight to the place where the quilt was raised.
It is conceivable that the volumes raised by the 17-year-old Mycroft and the five-year-old Gu Qing on the bed, calculated purely according to probability, have a high chance of being thrown by McCoff, let alone Sherlock. up.
Mycroft was overwhelmed by the brat Sherlock, almost out of breath.
"Sherlock!"
Sherlock knelt on the bed, gave McCoff a condescending look, and stared coldly at his brother who had betrayed him, "Patrick!"
"Xia Li, do you want to sleep together too?"
"Are you an idiot? How can you tell, tell Mycroft about this!" What happened in London today, in the eyes of the ten-year-old Sherlock, who has extremely high self-esteem, is a sore spot. It hurts, the first thing he doesn't want others to know is McCoff!If, if Mycroft had been there at that time, he would not have been as helpless as he was, and he would have convinced the police that he was still too weak.
Sherlock bit his lower lip stubbornly, he didn't want to see Mycroft, he would laugh at himself and be disappointed with himself.
"Okay, Xiali, listen to me." Mycroft called Sherlock's nickname again after a few years, and Sherlock still didn't look at him. He moved to the bed and sat down after Gu Qing called him again. Arms wrapped around knees, eyes fixed on the ground without looking at brother and brother.
Mycroft originally planned to let Sherlock go through this difficulty by himself, but seeing Sherlock's appearance now, he couldn't bear it anymore, and after thinking about it, he talked about an incident that happened when Gu Qing was one year old.
As I said before, Gu Qing has an aura of "luck ±E" in this world, that is, wherever he goes, there are many disasters and disasters, and he has been kidnapped a lot since he was a child. It's okay, it's all about accidents to the people who plotted against him, this is ﹢E.
He started this kind of lucky ±E when he was one year old, and he didn't even know how to say it.
At that time, Mycroft was only 13 years old, but his IQ was high enough to find the clues ignored by the police, but just like what happened to Sherlock today, the police did not believe him.Even if Mommy and Daddy insisted later, the police would investigate according to what McCoff said, just like what he said, they also insisted that McCoff was talking nonsense.
Gu Qing doesn't remember it. At that time, his body was not strong enough to support the supply and demand of the brain, and he often needed to sleep for a long time to reduce the energy supply. He didn't get better until he was two years old.Sherlock was only six years old at the time, and he only remembered that a major incident happened at home at that time, but he did not expect such twists and turns.
Sherlock looked up at Mycroft, with a rare blank look in his eyes, "Why?" he asked.
"Arrogance, the arrogance brought about by the power differences that society bestows on individuals, ubiquitous, self-righteous arrogance." That incident brought a spiritual baptism to McCoff at the beginning, and he refused to imagine himself. Daddy insisted, but the police didn't do what he said. His younger brother had no possibility of being saved in the end, because he wouldn't count his younger brother's life, but he decided that he would take this The supreme power is in his own hands, protecting his younger brothers and family.He's getting strong, and before he becomes strong enough, he'll teach his brothers to become strong themselves.
"Think about it, Sherlock." Mycroft stroked Sherlock's curly hair, and Sherlock jumped off the bed like a frightened cat, grinning at McCoff, "Why should I Listen to your words?" After speaking, he walked out angrily, and his younger brother stopped him before he walked out the door.
"What's up?" he said angrily.
"Charlie, you forgot to put on your shoes."
Sherlock: "..." Sherlock became furious, didn't even say he put on his shoes, he just stomped away with his shoes on, and decided to replace the sugar in his younger brother's milk with lemon juice tomorrow, you little traitor!
After completing the task of talking to the younger brothers assigned by his mother, Mycroft was ready to say good night to the youngest brother.
The younger brother showed him a soft and cute smile: "Don't you read "Snow White"?"
"...Let Daddy read it to you!" The eldest brother of the Holmes family, who was still mature and prudent before, who loved his younger brother, rolled his eyes at the stupid fairy tale book with various illustrations, and rubbed his eyes again. Rubbing the younger brother's curly hair, it feels good, rub it again, before Gu Qing protested to him, he moved his hand away, and pulled the quilt for little Gu Qing, "Good night, brother."
When McCoff closed the door and left, Gu Qing rubbed the soft pillow. To be honest, he was not used to the feeling of being cared for and protected at the beginning. He was used to being strong and letting others rely on him. He, but looking at himself now, this feeling of being under the wings makes him feel a little...addictive.
Well, tomorrow, add more sugar to the milk and give it to McCoff.
As for the next day, Mycroft drank milk with sugar and took a sip of lemon juice, his whole face wrinkled together, but Sherlock, who originally wanted to bully his brother, saw that the effect was better, so he squirted the water in his mouth The porridge accidentally splashed into Gu Qing's bowl opposite, and was punished by Mommy, who had to hold his nose and drink a large glass of milk or something. That can only show that their brothers really... love each other.
After breakfast, Sherlock and Gu Qing went to Sherlock's (accent) laboratory, Mommy turned a blind eye and pretended not to see it.
In the laboratory, Sherlock said that because Apple Pie sued Mycroft without his consent, he deprived him of the right to conduct independent experiments.
Gu Qing was not interested in dissecting frogs. He...was more interested in frog meat, so he let out a soft "Oh" and focused on the two frogs waiting to be put on the cutting board.
Sherlock crossed his arms and stared at his brother who seemed to be very disappointed (?) for a moment, then "cut", and said in an impatient tone: "Okay, okay, the second one will let you dissect the head office independently."
Unexpectedly, the younger brother did not become happy because of his words, but looked at him with big watery eyes blinking and said, "Xiali, let's roast frog legs! You and Mike haven't done it before, have you?"
Sherlock, who has always flaunted himself as a maverick - just different from Mycroft - said that this can be possible.
Of course, the brothers still have to do their homework before that. After all, frogs are the hosts of many kinds of parasites, viruses and bacteria. No matter how interested in frog meat, you can't ignore your own health.So until then, still have to dissect the frog.
After Sherlock instructed Apple Pie to dissect a frog, he said abruptly, "Pie, I will protect you in the future."
Gu Qing blinked and looked at Sherlock, who glared at him: "So you'd better not become a goldfish!" What is the connection here, second brother?
"I love you too, Charlie."
"What nonsense are you talking about?" Sherlock widened his cat's eyes, thinking that his brother's hearing and comprehension skills are very problematic, but his ears are all red, which is enough to explain the problem, isn't it?
……
If you must know, the two brothers failed to bake the frog legs in the end. When they went to the kitchen to search for seasonings, they were discovered by Mummy. After learning about their intentions, they really suppressed them.
Upstairs in the study, Mycroft clutched his sore teeth, casually flipping through the original document in his hand.
Well, this is still the warm daily life of the Sherlock Holmes brothers... right?
The little Gu Qing held his brother's hand and held on halfway, then fell asleep leaning on Sherlock's shoulder amidst the sound of the train tracks.Sherlock felt a heavy weight on his shoulders, returned to reality from contemplation, and said in a low voice, "A child is a child." However, he moved his position clumsily and let his brother lie on the chair with his pillow on his head. Sleeping on his knees, he stroked his younger brother's curly hair like his own - among the three Sherlock Holmes brothers, Sherlock and Gu Qing both have black curly hair, but Gu Qing's curly hair is not as curly as Sherlock's, but this does not prevent Sherlock from always Automatically put him in his own camp, especially after he got into the 'bad habit' of confronting Mycroft--muttered in a low voice: "Pie, you're right, they are all goldfish, I don't Don't be as knowledgeable as a goldfish."
"Their brothers are so cute. The elder brother is taking care of the younger brother."
Some passengers were so cute that they didn't want to, and they made louder voices, and were glared at by Sherlock viciously, but they didn't know that it really had no effect.
"Do you think we made my brother sleep because of the noise? It's even cuter."
Sherlock originally wanted to play them to tell them to shut up, but he was really afraid of disturbing his brother's sleep, so he kept staring at them until they stopped looking this way.
The two brothers left home early in the morning, and it was already evening when they came back, but they had already thought about this problem and left a note for Mommy. Besides, Sherlock often doesn't come back for a whole day after going out recently. It's not a problem for the curious younger brother to go out together.However, there is still a problem-
"Mycroft will definitely sue Mommy when he sees it!"
Sherlock held his brother's hand, pouted and said.
"Charlie?"
"what happened?"

"Don't call him!" Sherlock confronted Mycroft again, and he also knew that he was no match for McCoff now, and now he didn't want McCoff to know what happened in London!
It's a pity that it was already too late. Mycroft, who had followed them all the way back from London and was waiting on the way home before them, had of course seen them.He walked over in a relaxed manner, "Mummy asked me to come out and find you."
Sherlock snorted, "Did we find the candy store? Oh, the candy store owner's daughter likes you, she almost knocked you out and—"
"Sherlock!" Mycroft stopped before Sherlock said anything more or on a larger scale, but he noticed that before Sherlock said these words, he had put The younger brother covered his ears, and didn't continue to talk about this topic, "If you are like this, Mommy won't believe that you are going out to find materials for experiments."

Little Gu Qing lay on the elder brother's back and whispered to him: "Mike, I can secretly give you my fruit candy."
The gums that McCoff just had the treatment yesterday are still aching, and when he thinks of the fruit hard candy of his younger brother, he becomes #十动然激#, and even pulls Mommy in, "What Mommy said for a week It'll be over soon." He didn't want to turn one week into two.
"Well, I wanted to say that I left you a piece of sponge cake yesterday. It seems that only Xiali and I ate it." Gu Qing happily told Sherlock that Sherlock didn't like it himself, but he was very happy to eat it. To be angry with McCoff, I made an agreement with my brother.
Mycroft: "..."
Of course, the eldest brother would not "sit and wait for death" like this, if he wanted him not to complain to Mommy, he would have to pretend, so he took his younger brothers to the pond to catch frogs, under the pretense that he caught frogs for Gu Qing.Dissecting a frog is an entry-level experiment.

Little Gu Qing nodded solemnly: "I see."
When Sherlock stepped into the pond, he heard his brother cheering: "Charlie is great!"
Sherlock's face flushed suddenly, and he turned his head and yelled at his brother on the shore: "Send you little fool!" Such a shout made him look like a fool.
Mycroft almost wanted to laugh, but he held back to avoid #友军阵伤#, but he still laughed out loud, but it hurt his gums and the laughter turned into a hiss.
Sherlock, who was originally ashamed and turned into anger, suddenly became happy, and said "It deserves it!" before going to find the frog.
"It hurts?" Little Gu Qing asked Mycroft as if she felt empathy, clutching her cheeks with baby fat. McCoff looked down at him, as if he felt that the younger brother was asking nonsense.He also felt that he should learn a lesson from himself.

The three brothers went home like this, the sun was setting and it was shining on them, casting shadows so long that it was almost impossible to distinguish between you and me.
When they arrived home, little Gu Qing, who was lying on McCoff's back, asked a soft question: "Mike, Xiali, have you ever eaten frog meat?"
Mycroft: "... Sherlock, don't try to bring Patrick!"
After hearing what his brother said, Sherlock, who was ready to move, snorted: "True knowledge comes from practice!"
He's still very reasonable. Mycroft knew that he couldn't stop this matter. He could only do it under the premise of asking them to find out the information.
But the eldest brother of the Holmes family can rest assured that in my big foodie country, everything that flies in the sky, swims in the water, or runs on the ground, as long as it is edible, can’t escape. It’s not like the current Great Britain. The most famous cuisine is 有#死不省盖# known as star-gazing pie, and eel jelly.
When I got home, Mummy was so worried that she put her arms around the apple pie that she went out with her brother for the first time and looked at it again and again.

After dinner, it was Mycroft who delivered the pie to bed this time.
After the younger brother went to bed, the elder brother sat by the bed, smiled at the younger brother with the curly hair on his head, and asked, "Shall I read you fairy tales?"
Don't think that the Holmes family doesn't have this kind of book. Gu Qing fished out a book from the bedside table and handed it to Mycroft: "Here you are."
McCoff raised his eyebrows and took it over, with a look of disgust on his face: "It was from Aunt Marilyn. She doesn't like us, and she gives the exact same gift every Christmas, without even taking off the label."
"Oh." Gu Qing didn't care, he patted the quilt and looked very expectant, "I want to hear Mike read the article "Snow White", with both voice and emotion."
Mycroft looked at the younger brother who made such an unreasonable request, "No one taught me how to read fairy tales with emotion, or you can show me, or you can tell me that today you and Sherlock will go to London by train. What have you done?"
"Mike, you know." Gu Qing pulled down the quilt to make room for McCoff.In fact, Mycroft was quite happy to start this mode of lying in the same bed and secretly talking about things with the younger brother. He took off the vest and hung it aside, and then lay on his side - the smell of the younger brother's bed was very good. , the smell of sweet milk—putting his arms around his younger brother's body, "Okay, now we can talk, little guy."
Gu Qing rubbed his elder brother's cheek, this is really a novel experience, so he started talking to him about today's #伦敦一日旅游#.Mycroft is clear about most things, but he is still very happy to listen to his younger brother, but #天有防风风云,人有早晚停福#, don’t forget the other party in the day trip——
Sherlock noticed something was wrong when Mycroft sent apple pie to bed. He dawdled for 5 minutes, and finally couldn't help but go upstairs, and then... was watched by Daddy and brushed his teeth for another 3 minutes, After his father left, he heard the sound of his father going downstairs, and after another minute, he dawdled to his younger brother's room.
Oh, he didn't climb the window this time, so he didn't want to give Mycrof another chance to sue Mommy.But when he got to his younger brother's room, he not only saw his brother so close, but also heard his younger brother talking about the scene of the crime. He immediately became angry from embarrassment, threw off his shoes and flew straight to the place where the quilt was raised.
It is conceivable that the volumes raised by the 17-year-old Mycroft and the five-year-old Gu Qing on the bed, calculated purely according to probability, have a high chance of being thrown by McCoff, let alone Sherlock. up.
Mycroft was overwhelmed by the brat Sherlock, almost out of breath.
"Sherlock!"
Sherlock knelt on the bed, gave McCoff a condescending look, and stared coldly at his brother who had betrayed him, "Patrick!"
"Xia Li, do you want to sleep together too?"
"Are you an idiot? How can you tell, tell Mycroft about this!" What happened in London today, in the eyes of the ten-year-old Sherlock, who has extremely high self-esteem, is a sore spot. It hurts, the first thing he doesn't want others to know is McCoff!If, if Mycroft had been there at that time, he would not have been as helpless as he was, and he would have convinced the police that he was still too weak.
Sherlock bit his lower lip stubbornly, he didn't want to see Mycroft, he would laugh at himself and be disappointed with himself.
"Okay, Xiali, listen to me." Mycroft called Sherlock's nickname again after a few years, and Sherlock still didn't look at him. He moved to the bed and sat down after Gu Qing called him again. Arms wrapped around knees, eyes fixed on the ground without looking at brother and brother.
Mycroft originally planned to let Sherlock go through this difficulty by himself, but seeing Sherlock's appearance now, he couldn't bear it anymore, and after thinking about it, he talked about an incident that happened when Gu Qing was one year old.
As I said before, Gu Qing has an aura of "luck ±E" in this world, that is, wherever he goes, there are many disasters and disasters, and he has been kidnapped a lot since he was a child. It's okay, it's all about accidents to the people who plotted against him, this is ﹢E.
He started this kind of lucky ±E when he was one year old, and he didn't even know how to say it.
At that time, Mycroft was only 13 years old, but his IQ was high enough to find the clues ignored by the police, but just like what happened to Sherlock today, the police did not believe him.Even if Mommy and Daddy insisted later, the police would investigate according to what McCoff said, just like what he said, they also insisted that McCoff was talking nonsense.
Gu Qing doesn't remember it. At that time, his body was not strong enough to support the supply and demand of the brain, and he often needed to sleep for a long time to reduce the energy supply. He didn't get better until he was two years old.Sherlock was only six years old at the time, and he only remembered that a major incident happened at home at that time, but he did not expect such twists and turns.
Sherlock looked up at Mycroft, with a rare blank look in his eyes, "Why?" he asked.
"Arrogance, the arrogance brought about by the power differences that society bestows on individuals, ubiquitous, self-righteous arrogance." That incident brought a spiritual baptism to McCoff at the beginning, and he refused to imagine himself. Daddy insisted, but the police didn't do what he said. His younger brother had no possibility of being saved in the end, because he wouldn't count his younger brother's life, but he decided that he would take this The supreme power is in his own hands, protecting his younger brothers and family.He's getting strong, and before he becomes strong enough, he'll teach his brothers to become strong themselves.
"Think about it, Sherlock." Mycroft stroked Sherlock's curly hair, and Sherlock jumped off the bed like a frightened cat, grinning at McCoff, "Why should I Listen to your words?" After speaking, he walked out angrily, and his younger brother stopped him before he walked out the door.
"What's up?" he said angrily.
"Charlie, you forgot to put on your shoes."
Sherlock: "..." Sherlock became furious, didn't even say he put on his shoes, he just stomped away with his shoes on, and decided to replace the sugar in his younger brother's milk with lemon juice tomorrow, you little traitor!
After completing the task of talking to the younger brothers assigned by his mother, Mycroft was ready to say good night to the youngest brother.
The younger brother showed him a soft and cute smile: "Don't you read "Snow White"?"
"...Let Daddy read it to you!" The eldest brother of the Holmes family, who was still mature and prudent before, who loved his younger brother, rolled his eyes at the stupid fairy tale book with various illustrations, and rubbed his eyes again. Rubbing the younger brother's curly hair, it feels good, rub it again, before Gu Qing protested to him, he moved his hand away, and pulled the quilt for little Gu Qing, "Good night, brother."
When McCoff closed the door and left, Gu Qing rubbed the soft pillow. To be honest, he was not used to the feeling of being cared for and protected at the beginning. He was used to being strong and letting others rely on him. He, but looking at himself now, this feeling of being under the wings makes him feel a little...addictive.
Well, tomorrow, add more sugar to the milk and give it to McCoff.
As for the next day, Mycroft drank milk with sugar and took a sip of lemon juice, his whole face wrinkled together, but Sherlock, who originally wanted to bully his brother, saw that the effect was better, so he squirted the water in his mouth The porridge accidentally splashed into Gu Qing's bowl opposite, and was punished by Mommy, who had to hold his nose and drink a large glass of milk or something. That can only show that their brothers really... love each other.
After breakfast, Sherlock and Gu Qing went to Sherlock's (accent) laboratory, Mommy turned a blind eye and pretended not to see it.
In the laboratory, Sherlock said that because Apple Pie sued Mycroft without his consent, he deprived him of the right to conduct independent experiments.
Gu Qing was not interested in dissecting frogs. He...was more interested in frog meat, so he let out a soft "Oh" and focused on the two frogs waiting to be put on the cutting board.
Sherlock crossed his arms and stared at his brother who seemed to be very disappointed (?) for a moment, then "cut", and said in an impatient tone: "Okay, okay, the second one will let you dissect the head office independently."
Unexpectedly, the younger brother did not become happy because of his words, but looked at him with big watery eyes blinking and said, "Xiali, let's roast frog legs! You and Mike haven't done it before, have you?"
Sherlock, who has always flaunted himself as a maverick - just different from Mycroft - said that this can be possible.
Of course, the brothers still have to do their homework before that. After all, frogs are the hosts of many kinds of parasites, viruses and bacteria. No matter how interested in frog meat, you can't ignore your own health.So until then, still have to dissect the frog.
After Sherlock instructed Apple Pie to dissect a frog, he said abruptly, "Pie, I will protect you in the future."
Gu Qing blinked and looked at Sherlock, who glared at him: "So you'd better not become a goldfish!" What is the connection here, second brother?
"I love you too, Charlie."
"What nonsense are you talking about?" Sherlock widened his cat's eyes, thinking that his brother's hearing and comprehension skills are very problematic, but his ears are all red, which is enough to explain the problem, isn't it?
……
If you must know, the two brothers failed to bake the frog legs in the end. When they went to the kitchen to search for seasonings, they were discovered by Mummy. After learning about their intentions, they really suppressed them.
Upstairs in the study, Mycroft clutched his sore teeth, casually flipping through the original document in his hand.
Well, this is still the warm daily life of the Sherlock Holmes brothers... right?
