Mary's Nineteenth Century

Sunset, beach, evening wind blowing.

Mary finally gave Mycroft a bright smile. "Dear Mike, stop teasing you, I am very satisfied with your proposal. I will tell you quietly, I have always had a small regret. I wrote "Teaching You to Rob a Bank Through the Sewer" before, but unfortunately, it was rejected by the godfather Possibility of publication."

Not only did the book fail to be published, but also the tunnel was not dug by hand.

At that moment, Mary looked at Mycroft with glowing eyes, "I went around and around, and finally someone found the desire in my heart. As expected of you, Mr. Holmes, your wisdom shines beyond the stars, and you came up with such a good idea." No, it couldn’t be better! Although this secret passage doesn’t lead to the bank vault, it leads to your residence, allowing me to dig out the most precious treasure in the world.”

A series of sweet words fell head-on.

Mycroft was a little depressed at first, but just now Mary had acted so well that he almost thought that his marriage proposal had been coldly rejected.But these small flames of depression had no time to spread, and were extinguished in an instant, leaving only joy.

"Your liking is my honor."

Smiling, Mycroft took out a small box from his pocket, and inside it was a delicate diamond-studded ruby ​​ring on a platinum chain.

"Although you said you don't need gemstones to propose, I think there should be an engagement ring. You can't wear it on your finger, but as a necklace. May I put it on for you?"

"Of course, I like your intentions."

Mary smiled and lowered her head slightly, coordinating with Mycroft to fasten the clasp of the necklace on the back of her neck.

Mycroft did not stop immediately after fastening the chain button, but unbuttoned the first collar button of Mary's shirt, and stuffed the ring pendant properly inside the clothes.

His eyes are focused and his movements are soft.He carefully buttoned up Mary's clothes again, and gently stroked Mary's collar with his fingers, smoothing out the invisible folds on the collar.

Take your time and do it all.

Mycroft looked up, and met Mary's eyes that captivated him.

On the peaceful sunset beach, two people met each other's eyes.

At this time, the breath is heard, and the heart beats a little faster, which is suitable for exchanging a kiss.

However, the rationality of the two still restrained their emotional impulses, and they did not act out of line because of their emotions, because the ship was on the sea not far away.

There are two binoculars on board, and one person is seen helping the other wear a necklace, and they can barely explain it by helping each other.But if the sailors see two 'men' kissing affectionately on the beach, the scene will be more than embarrassing.

"Go back to the ship, we will sail back to London tonight."

Mary suddenly thought of another key point, "Mike, please allow me to remind you of one thing. Back in London, at least the beginning of April. Let's take care of the trivial matters at hand, and we will not be able to go to Yorkshire until mid-April at the earliest. By then Is there still snow on the selected ski trail?"

good question!

Mycroft recalled the monthly temperature changes in Yorkshire over the years, and the track he chose was the most suitable for skiing from December to February.Even if there is still snow in early April, it is no longer enough for people to ski.

"You can choose to wait half a year and wait until this Christmas to play in Yorkshire."

After Mary's voice fell, Mycroft's eyes flashed with resentment, as if he was talking about when year after year is the end.

She kindly offered the second option, “Or, let’s find time to go to the Alps. You can find ski resorts even in midsummer, but you’re not familiar with the terrain.”

Going to the familiar snow in Yorkshire can basically guarantee victory, but there are still at least eight months.Or, go to the Alps as soon as possible and try it out, but at the risk of losing.

Mycroft decisively chose the latter, "I will arrange a vacation in April. This time I won't give the hairy Cupid a chance to call me. Let's go to the Alps. But, dear Mary, can you give your fiancé A little benefit. If I don't win this time, can the priority skiing privilege continue to be used in this competition?"

Mycroft was sure that as long as he kept fighting, he would win one day and get Mary to wear women's clothes.

There is such a good thing in the world, is it possible?

Mary was about to tease whether Mycroft used her as a sparring partner, when a good idea suddenly flashed in her mind, and she immediately nodded her head in agreement. "As you wish, how could I have the heart to let you down."

Mycroft felt instinctively that there was deceit, but he looked Mary up and down, and could not see that she had any bad intentions.

I can only give up and stop thinking about it.Silently comforting myself, maybe he is overly sensitive, and agreeing so readily is a sign that Mary loves him, isn't it?

The two agreed to get on the boat.

The return journey was quicker than the arrival, arriving in London thirteen days later.

The three Germans don't know anything about the "K" stealing the secret red box of the Minister of Finance.As presumed, they didn't know that Kimberly was a well-known thief.

This explosive Whitehall scandal disappeared before it broke out.

Another piece of good news came.

Four days ago, on April Fool's Day, Dr. Jekyll woke up after more than a month in a coma.

In retrospect, the process was extremely dangerous.

On the last day of March, the ferocious man in the special ward suddenly deteriorated and his heart stopped for a while.

At the juncture of life and death, Lawyer Earson gave the comatose man a pill without any hope, which was exactly the bottle of medicine labeled "Hyde" by Dr. Jekyll.

There were three tablets in total, and Watson took one for a toxicological test, and found no known toxins.

After experimenting on plants, it was found that it could prompt plants to grow wildly and die suddenly at a certain critical point.The mice were also fed part of the drug, and after one night, the mice actually grew two tails.

Exactly what kind of pharmacological effect needs further study.But there are only two tablets left, which can no longer be separated for experiments.

At the end of March, the comatose man was in critical condition.

Attorney Earlson makes the difficult decision to gamble big and give the man a pill.

The situation couldn't be worse.Not taking medicine is definitely a death word; taking medicine, maybe the man can change back to the form of Dr. Jekyll and die.

An hour after the medication, when the clock struck zero o'clock on April Fool's Day, a horrifying scene occurred on the hospital bed.

The fierce man with an unfamiliar face gradually transformed into the familiar Doctor Jekyll.

I can't tell what the specific medical reason is, but it may be that the body's functions have improved rapidly under strong stimulation. Not only did he transform, but Jekyll barely opened his eyes.

I cultivated for four days.

Dr. Jekyll was still weak, but he didn't shy away from seeing Mary.

"Up to now, I really have nothing to hide. I made the transformation potion because I wanted to split the "evil thoughts" in my body. "

Dr. Jekyll said, with a flash of light in his eyes, it was his obsession with exploring the unknown.

"You know, this is not schizophrenia, but a complete division of good and evil into two people. It's a weird and genius potion invention, isn't it? Transformation potion, let you transform into the opposite of yourself That kind of person."

Mary admitted that it was a sensational but exciting drug. She had a guess when she heard about the medicine that transformed people into werewolves and vampires. "Do you know Dracula? It is said that he has something to do with vampires."

Dr. Jekyll shook his head, "No, I don't know him. It is related to the unnamed island in the Caribbean Sea when he started making transformation potions. I heard from Erson that you have been to Central America during this time, and you must have seen that A cave carved with a scarab pattern. It was using the plants of that island that I extracted the core ingredient of the transformation potion."

"That's it. I guess it's difficult for special plants to be successfully transplanted and grown. At least you haven't been able to successfully cultivate medicinal plants in England, have you?"

Seeing Doctor Jekyll nodding, Mary said regretfully, "I'm sorry, but I have some bad news to tell you. The plants on that island were burned down by the pirates."

"what!"

Dr. Jekyll sat up straight abruptly, then leaned against the head of the bed dejectedly.

"No, there are no raw materials. This is the second time I have taken the transformation potion. It will take effect within an hour after taking it, and the whole person is in a weak state. Who would have thought that someone would sneak into the laboratory to steal things and knock Hyde unconscious. In the future And there will be no more Hyde."

Transformation potion, take one piece to become another person, and take another piece to change back.

It involves a question, why is the other person willing to change back?This is like the master personality's mental control over the sub-personality, subconsciously ordering him in advance to force him to take medicine at a certain point in time.

Here comes the problem, this transformation potion hides a deadly crisis.

As another person keeps appearing, will his mental power become stronger and stronger?Instead of being controlled by the subject?

Now it can't be verified.

The ingredients were burned, and the last tablet in the vial was destroyed by Lawyer Earlson on the spot after Dr. Jekyll woke up.

The reason is very simple. Because Erson didn't want the vicious Hyde to appear again, he always felt that he would go on a road of no return.

Mary felt a little regretful, she did not deny that she was very curious and wanted to try the potion of transformation, but life could not always be satisfactory.

Fortunately, it's not all bad news.Dr. Jekyll did not deny that he took the box from the Nameless Island, and he deposited the password-locked treasure box in the bank in the name of "Hyde" after his transformation.Right now, give Mary the deposit receipt and the withdrawal code.

It was a 28-inch lockbox made of alloy.

There is an Arabic numeral combination lock with seven lock positions on the top, and a sentence is engraved on the bottom of the lock: "The secret of the scarab, one-time opening. If the password is wrong, the self-destruct device will be activated inside the box."

Dr. Jekyll said that he got the nautical chart in the wall brick of No. 199 Fett Lane, and followed the map to find the islands in Central America, but he did not get any hints related to the combination lock.

This seven-digit password is hidden on the back of several scarab club badges.

Previously, Mycroft had deciphered the secrets of the emblems according to the number rules of the Aztec twentieth system, and obtained the group of numbers "2, 10, 8000".

When Mary took out the lockbox and entered the seven-digit number, she finally found the secret hidden by the Scarab Society.

Inside the box are rolls of sheepskins that are easy to preserve for a long time, a total of 49 copies, almost all of which are various weird research results of the Scarab Society, such as the mind control technique encountered before, the resurrection array, and so on.

These theories are esoteric and obscure, and some clearly indicate that blood sacrifices are required to get started.It seems that on the day when the mastery is mastered and the finished product is successfully produced, it is really possible to go to a world full of unique power.

Such rhetoric is true illusion, free heart proof.

But if these sheepskins are obtained by those with evil intentions, what kind of bloody storm will be set off.

Finally, there is a sheepskin that records the list of members of the Scarab Society, just simple names and places of origin, and the date of writing is more than 20 years ago.

Note at the end of the list that these people are not all criminals or criminal reservists, but also crazy people who are just doing research.As for how to distinguish them, whether to find them, whether they are still alive, etc., it is up to the successor who opened the lockbox to judge for himself.

『There are different factions within the Scarab Club.Successor, I think you can easily deduce that I am not the only one who left the relics of the Scarab Society in the world, there must be other scarab remnants.

Among my former club friends, there will always be someone who is unwilling to be lonely and leaves something behind.As for what is left behind, it has nothing to do with me, if you want to explore those secrets. ——The Last Letter of the Scarab Club President, Winter of 1852』

London in April is rarely sunny.

The sun does not reach the abandoned sewers.

James Moriarty walked out of the sewers carrying a lockbox.

It was a very old lockbox, the nameplate on the top was worn out, and a pattern resembling a scarab could be vaguely seen.

He called a carriage, went to the pier, prepared to change passenger ships and left London temporarily.

Leaving London this time will be a new beginning. I believe that with the password box in hand, the plan to create the underground criminal kingdom will be even more powerful.

Moriarty glanced at the sky. The warm sunlight was blinding and sickening.His expression was gloomy, and his figure quickly disappeared into the traffic.

In London, some stay and some go.

This is a city full of secrets, one secret is revealed, and another secret is created.

The April spring breeze passed through and blew into Pall Mall Street.

On the window sill of the study, a pot of mountain roses is growing vigorously.Green and succulent, shaped like a rose, known as the beauty and love that never fades.

Mary quickly read through all the scarab society scrolls, and put them away by category.Opening the lockbox is just the beginning, and as the box is opened, countless new secrets are waiting for her to explore.

Stretching, he couldn't help but look at the potted plant that Mycroft had given him on the windowsill.She nodded with satisfaction, very well, she is not a plant killer, and has successfully fed the mountain roses for a year.

This time, he glanced at the desk calendar again, showing the date April 1874, 4.

Five days later, he set off to the Swiss snow mountain to compete with Mycroft in the agreed ski race.

Time is really fast.

Five years ago, in April 1869, she came back from the dead in this world.

This April, after the ski races, she will visit the old Sherlock Holmes couple.Then prepare for the wedding and other matters, and enter a new stage of life.

Speaking of the wedding, Mary knew very well that Mycroft really wanted to win the ski race.And if he loses, his days of dressing up as women will be postponed.

In fact, there is a third possibility-a draw.

The probability of a draw is very small, but it can be artificially created.In case of a tie, a new proposal can be made.For example, she can promise women's clothing, and at the same time, dear Mr. Holmes will also be Mrs. Roman again as she wishes.

Miss Mary married Mr. Holmes, and Mr. Minton married Mrs. Roman.Come and go, everyone can be a groom for a while, and a bride for a while, how interesting.

Mary: It's an interesting proposition, isn't it, to make Mike happy to be her bride for once?

One kilometer away, Whitehall, the office.

Suddenly, Mycroft's nose itched slightly, and he glanced sideways out of the window.The world is bright and bright, in broad daylight, there shouldn't be any strange things waiting for him, right?

At this time, a breeze blew by.

The wind seems to have guessed the strange little secrets in people's hearts.
