[Comprehensive British and American] Exchange bodies with Chaoying

And Mary offered to allow him to stay a little longer.

"Thank you." Watson thanked him sincerely. He needed to thank his wife for her understanding. "Thank you, Mary."

"I'm sorry at the same time, and I hope I can get your forgiveness."

"It's okay, you didn't do anything wrong, you were right." Mary smiled, "And I love you, and you love me, that's enough."

Watson opened his mouth, wanted to say something but didn't say any more, and after a long silence, he said, "Okay."

After a while, he called Sherlock who was thinking again: "Sherlock..."

"Sherlock!"

His voice raised unconsciously, and Sherlock was finally called out of his mind palace.

"Huh?" Sherlock just responded without even saying a word, which was weaker than the previous reaction.

"Mary is going home, take Rosa." Watson could only sigh helplessly, and then said.

"What about you?"

"Stay here and stay with you for a while."

After a short pause, he said, "...that's what Mary meant too."

Then Sherlock raised his head and stared at Watson for a long time, but the question he asked was directed at Mary: "Do you think I will tell him? It seems that I am deliberately avoiding you. Don't you want to tell me?" Say something?"

"But we both know it isn't," Mary replied, "and we both know what the next conversation is going to be, there's no need to ask."

"Besides, it's just a possibility, even if it's very likely."

"...Come back before midnight." This is what Mary said to Watson.

Watson nodded to her.

Then Mary got up and went downstairs with Rosa in her arms, and Watson followed and called them a taxi.

After sending them to the car and seeing the car disappearing from sight, Watson went back to the house and went upstairs, and sat in his 'exclusive seat' just like Sherlock.

Silence spread between the two again.

It seems that when they communicate recently, there will always be silence suddenly, and the silence is like a gap, blocking them.They can understand some things without words, but communication is necessary, even without communication, they can understand, but in this case they have nothing to say.

What's more, he didn't know what Sherlock was thinking, what could make him show such a thoughtful look?What is it that can worry even the smartest detective?

Thinking of this, Watson sighed, but he still took the initiative to speak.

"Sherlock, since you asked me to stay, you must have something to tell me, let's talk about it, let's discuss and solve it together, isn't that how it used to be?"

Sherlock shook his head when he heard the words. He rarely said such depressing words, but this time it was different: "I can't solve it, and you can't solve it, at least no one in this world can solve it."

No one, no one can do this.

"But you always need to know, right? After you know it, we will study it together, and we can solve some problems." Watson said helplessly. He has been helpless many times today.

Sherlock often made him act helplessly, but this time it was different. He knew that Sherlock was really trapped by these things.

The smartest Mr. Detective is trapped, and he's a not-so-smart ordinary guy who can only keep him from getting trapped even deeper.

"...Then do you know what Judas means?" Sherlock suddenly raised his head and asked, staring straight at Watson.

Watson was looked at a little strangely, this look was different from the ones he had seen before, but he still answered seriously: "Judas? Judas betrayed Jesus? I don't believe in religion, that's all I know."

"But I think you know more about Judas than I do. Don't they use it often?"

Criminals often formulate their own plans according to religious traditions or legends when committing crimes. They have encountered such cases once or twice. Normally, Sherlock is familiar with these cases, and they are always related to solving cases.

"Judas betrayed Jesus..." Sherlock repeated under his breath, as if it were some magical spell, "Judas betrayed Jesus..."

Although Judah has many connotations, this is the most famous.

--betray.

So now the question comes, who is Judas?Who is Jesus?

This is a decisive question.

And why would you betray?For the benefit of those thirty silver coins?

This is not necessarily the case, the simple betrayal of interests is too simple, there is no need to set up such a complicated situation.

He has seen this scene of wanting to declare something and verify it several times in solving the case, and those few times...

Behaviors related to religion are very sensitive and incomprehensible to ordinary people. Some behaviors that seem meaningless to people are as important as proving one's own piety when verified by those who agree with them.

Sherlock pondered, thinking deeply from the clues he observed, but he still couldn't get any bias. He even felt that the little girl and these two had nothing to do with each other.She has nothing to do with religion, she has nothing to do with betrayal.

Seeing Watson looking at him trustingly and worriedly, Sherlock pursed his lips, and quickly deduced in his mind whether to tell Watson the matter.

Mary was right, he really wanted to tell Watson that it was a kind of subconscious protection (?) not to say it before, after all, the piece of paper he saw was like a letter of war, and it was placed there brightly for him to Remember the dangers of waiting until certain conditions are triggered to declare yourself.

Now that the battle has begun, the enemy is in the dark but he is in the light. He doesn't want to drag others into the water, especially since Watson has suffered many injuries and even faced many death threats because of him.

The fire... how could he forget?

Watson saw that Sherlock was thinking again, sighed, and said helplessly, "Are you worried that I will be in danger if I find out?"

Sherlock's body froze, and he looked up at Watson involuntarily.

Watson also observed Sherlock's reaction, and couldn't help but smiled: "Hey, why are you worrying about this? This is not your style. You were not like this before."

Sherlock is always determined, always unafraid to pursue the truth, always the consulting detective.

He will always be Sherlock Holmes.

"Just kidding, do I have a lot of danger because of you? Is this one worse?"

"You are the smartest consulting detective. Are there any mysteries that you can't solve? You have solved so many unsolvable cases hidden in the eyes of normal people."

"Sherlock, I told you so."

Speaking of this, Watson's voice became serious and firm, as if he was making an oath.

"No matter what happens, I will stand by your side."

Then there was a long silence in the air.

Sherlock didn't speak or move. Such silence made Watson think that Sherlock would not continue talking, but then Sherlock spoke again.

"Watson," said he, "these words I am about to write may have many connotations, and may have many combinations."

Watson nodded, but didn't say anything else, just waiting for Sherlock to finish writing.

Sherlock took a newspaper and copied it exactly according to the position of the words in the Memory Palace, except that the little girl's name was not written.

He still didn't want Watson to know it was about the little girl.

【Destruction, Judah, evaluation, universe, lamb, silk, future, glory. 】

【die. 】

Watson stared at the words carefully, pondered, and then...

Then he fell into the same confusion as Sherlock.

These words are not related, for example, silk is very abrupt in these words.The arrangement of other words can be seen at a glance, but is that the real arrangement?When there are two or three words whose meaning is not clear, the probability of sorting errors is much higher than that of correct ones, not much higher than the probability of winning a lottery ticket.

What's more, they still don't know what they really mean. It is extremely irresponsible to make any inferences without guaranteeing a certain accuracy rate. They are all aware of the possible impact of bad consequences.

"Can you see anything?" Sherlock asked after seeing Watson contemplating the words for a while, "Some ideas are fine."

"No." Watson shook his head, turned to look at Sherlock beside him, hesitated for a moment and then continued, "You...you can't see anything, can I see something? I'm not as smart as you .”

"All I can see is a fog."

There are absolute derogatory words in the front and absolute commendatory words in the back, and the nature of a few words is also vague.This makes the arrangement more difficult. Every two or three words combined can figure out the smooth meaning, feel that it is correct but know that it is not correct.

"It's a puzzle," Sherlock said.

However, they were all wrong. It should be said that they all thought too much. As I said before, this puzzle is very simple, so simple that it is almost impossible to write the answer on the surface.

But they didn't know until after it happened.

And at that time, when the matter was settled, even if the reason was understood, it could not be changed, nor could the impact be eliminated.

There was a small knocking sound outside the window, which tended to become louder. As time passed, the knocking sound gradually became clearer.The street lights came on, and the place where it was illuminated was foggy, as if everything was covered in fog.

Watson was discussing the meaning of the word with Sherlock, and after hearing such a voice, he was distracted and judged for a while, and reached a conclusion in just a few seconds.

"It's raining outside." He turned his head and looked out of the window. The glass was covered with water mist, and the water droplets gathered and flowed down. Everything outside was hidden under this foggy filter.

Sherlock also looked out of the window when he heard the words. The weather forecast said that it would be sunny all day today, but there were many times when the weather forecast was inaccurate, so it didn't seem so strange.

"It should be..." He was about to say something else when he was interrupted by sudden lightning.
