[Shenxia Tongren] My dear brothers and adults

When Hypatia came home, she ate, washed, picked out clothes for tomorrow's banquet, and then went to bed. Another boring day.

However, when she was lying on the bed, she began to toss and turn and felt sleepless. When she was in the office, she needed to keep calm. She was instructed by Sherlock to clean up the nail polish just after get off work, and she had no time to be sad.And now, in the middle of the night, in this quiet and secret time, when the loneliness and longing are quietly increasing, she feels that her mind is starting to sing heavy metal rock, although she has never heard it, but she feels that it is, at the beginning At the same time as the concert, it also started to roam the galaxy.

Accompanied by the noise in her head, she saw with horror that the French windows leading to the terrace opened, and Moriarty came in through the screens.After that, she was startled awake.

She was so frightened that she sat up and turned on the bedside lamp. She wanted to swear, but when she saw the picture of her mother on the bedside table, she opened her mouth and said nothing.She sat for a while and still didn't feel sleepy, so she got up and walked to the mirror.

Looking critically at myself in the mirror, my skin is a little pale, have you worked too much overtime recently?Fortunately, no dark circles.The lips seem to be a little cyanotic, which is probably the sequelae of being frightened just now, she thought, so the conclusion is that it still needs to be touched up.

She opened the closet and looked at the rows of clothes hanging and felt a little silly. I am such an idiot. I should be sleeping instead of trying on clothes in the middle of the night, but if I really see him again, I hope I Time is the best state, but why?Make him regret it, attract him?This is absolute bullshit, Hypatia said to herself, the problem is that I can't restrain my emotions, this is really a sad thing, she feels a little panic, the loss of control thinking is terrible, what can I do?

She spent 10 minutes dejected for a while, and decided to match the long dress and makeup that will be used in the banquet tomorrow. This is all for work, and the external minister should pay me an extra overtime pay.

An hour later, she stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling mirror in the room, her hair was in a high bun, with diamond-encrusted hair accessories, and the white Lyon satin dress was gorgeous and elegant, she thought as she mentioned her layered skirts , will this be too grand?Or is it the other one? Hypatia looked at the closet and looked at the hanging dresses of different lengths, feeling a little depressed, as if she saw a better one when she passed the shop window today, and it was a pity that she didn't buy it.

Three hours had passed by the time she had matched her gown with her makeup and hairstyle.She looked at the sky, and it was almost dawn, so she didn't need to sleep.Wearing a long dress and walking out of the terrace, she looked at the rising sun and a bright red glow in the sky, sighed, and asked quietly, "Why did you come back?"

Going to the office, Hypatia's direct supervisor, Sir Harker, the permanent secretary of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, was still so critical, and criticized Hypatia's work.Hypatia, who was already nervous, almost announced in the office the fact that Sir Huck hadn't returned all night and was out fooling around, but fortunately she controlled it.The consequence of patience was to make her day even more difficult, and she silently set a new deadline for herself again: the deadline to take Sir Huck off and send him to retirement.

In the evening, the foreign minister, Sir Harker, and Mr. Lindbergh were all startled by Hypatia's somewhat grand attire.Sir Harker thought of the place where she worked before, and couldn't help thinking, could it be that the Ecuadorian ambassador is not the Ecuadorian ambassador, but the Ecuadorian intelligence officer? !Mr. Lindberg wondered if this was an overreaction?Just an ordinary diplomatic banquet.

Went to the embassy of Ecuador, the banquet started, after a toast and a speech, finally it was time for the waltz.It is impossible for Hypatia to leave the Minister of Foreign Affairs and find out where Moriarty is hiding. Instead, he can only follow him as an artificial teleprompter, memorize the names in advance and then quietly tell the minister. grown ups.Finally, next to the Ecuadorian ambassador, she saw the person she hated but wanted to die.The moment she saw her, Hypatia's face turned pale.Moriarty obviously saw her too, and smiled at her very innocently, revealing two dimples.

The Ecuadorian ambassador was as enthusiastic as the weather in South America. After shaking hands with the foreign minister, he personally introduced his entourage to the minister, pointed to Moriarty and said, "This is my most important guest, James Moriarty." Professor, he seems to be still English."

"No, he's Irish." Hypatia felt that his thinking had become dull, and said this sentence unconsciously.

"What?" said the ambassador in surprise.

Moriarty looked at Hypatia's hand on the arm of the foreign minister and said, "Lend me the lady next to you, please?"

The minister looked at Hypatia, a little surprised.Hypatia trembled and said: "I'm sorry, sir, please forgive my negligence tonight." Let go of his hand, walked towards Moriarty, and tried to speak calmly: "Professor Moriarty, welcome back to London."

Moriarty stepped forward to support her, and whispered something in her ear: "Of course I will come back, even if it's for you."

The ambassador and the minister watched them come out of the terrace, looking at each other, and finally the permanent secretary joked: "It's almost like in a novel, like Edmond Dantès meets Mercedes again. But our heroine has not yet Get married, where is the leading actor?"

The ambassador laughed and said, "No, he is ascetic as an ascetic."

"Really? What a sweet story that must be!"

After walking no more than ten steps, Hypatia had already recovered. Without Moriarty's support, she stood up straight and moved on her own.Going to the terrace, she lowered her eyes and said, "How did you do it? That photo was faked?"

"It can't be faked, it's my body. I need to let you know I'm dead."

"You don't need it. My brother has been cornered by you."

"I need it. The UK has limited my development, so I went to some wild places to have fun. Their methods are brutal and direct, but the imagination is not bad. I gained a lot there."

"Then why did you come back?! How dare you come back? Leaving the UK now, I believe that the so-called security consultant must have made it up. If you leave, the ambassador will probably be happier."

"How can it be said that it was made up? I have always hated people who sit on vegetarian meals. When I was giving lectures in Oxford, I prepared the lectures myself."

"Don't change the subject, sir, you'd better leave immediately, and I'll pretend I haven't seen you."

"So what? You're going to report to Mycroft? I guess so. But, my dear, you know very well that the British Government has no right to expel a diplomat unless he wants to go to war."

"You have a case."

"Evidence? Juries are easy to fool, and I have the highest degree of diplomatic immunity."

"Then you'd better not break the law here, or I will definitely send you to Scotland Yard myself. I would like to see how those small South American countries can protect you?"

"It's not just South America, my dear, not just. I did everything I could to live a decent life when I came back. I don't like living in hiding like a groundhog."

"You..." Hypatia was too angry to speak.

"Relax, my little Hai Pasha." Moriarty looked into her shining eyes and comforted her.

"Whatever you want, sir. It's time for me to get back to work."

"No, I think my employer will hold him up for a while, so now you can pass the time with me."

"To pass the time? Poison the kitchen? Doesn't that pen in your pocket really contain poison?"

"No, it's just an ordinary pen, I'm sorry to disappoint you."

"Go inside the toilet and try how to use hydrochloric acid and soda to deprive people outside of oxygen?"

"It's a very imaginative method. Maybe we can really try it. Use hydrochloric acid to replace the carbon dioxide inside. That's great, Hypatia, you understand me more and more."

"I hope not," said Hypatia.

"Any other ideas? I can give you a dividend."

"No need," Hypatia said.

"What a pity, what are the people doing outside?" He poked his head in for a look, then came back and said, "Dancing, it's boring."Let's do something fun. "

"Work?"

"Your job is boring enough."

"I know." Hypatia said, "You know what? I scared away my assistant yesterday because I told him about his appointments in the last few days, and then I almost offended my boss today. Fortunately I got it under control."

"Under control, boring."

"If I say it directly, I guess I will go home to rest in the afternoon. Will you support me then?"

"My pleasure."

"You think too much." Hypatia said, reflecting on why she would become childish every time she saw him. What's going on?

"How about we try to escape at a party?"

"Such behavior, I would only do it when I was underage."

"It's lucky. I can only do this kind of behavior when I am an adult." Moriarty said with a little melancholy.

"What?" Hypatia asked, feeling a little incapable of accepting Moriarty's sudden change from naughty to melancholic.

"It's nothing, I think you've figured it out, a strict father, a picky mother, that's about it."

"My God, I'm sorry to hear that," Hypatia exclaimed in surprise.

"So, let's go." Moriarty said, snickering in his heart, woman, your name is weakness, this method really works.Why are most women so interested in men's tragic childhoods?Because they all aspire to be good mothers?interesting!

Before she could protest again, she had been led out of the embassy gates by Moriarty.
