My years as a menswear boss
Chapter 49
Although they are brothers, Mycroft Holmes and Sherlock Holmes look very different. Mycroft Holmes is taller and fatter than Sherlock Holmes.
"I'm a little flattered by your sudden visit." Jiqiu poured a cup of black tea for Mycroft Holmes. She knew that it would be best to get straight to the point when dealing with such a person. "Of course, if it's a commission or something, I might not be able to do it."
After all, Sherlock Holmes once said that her elder brother's abilities are completely superior to his. Jiqiu dare not expect that she, who is not as good as Sherlock Holmes, can help things that Mycroft cannot.
"Not necessarily, I have great expectations for Miss Gary." Mycroft put six cubes of sugar in his black tea, picked up the handle of the coffee spoon and stirred it gently, "You might as well listen to my request , and then make a decision after listening.”
"...Yes." Jiqiu never thought that her men's clothing could fool Mycroft, and after hesitating for a while, she agreed to listen. She was really curious about any cases that even important officials of the contemporary government could not solve.
Mycroft took out a photo from his jacket pocket and handed it to Jiqiu, "I wonder if Miss Gary has heard of the Diogenes Club?"
"I heard your brother mention that this is a men's club you run."
Jiqiu took the photo, and the only information she knew was that talking was forbidden in the club, and she could only read it. She didn't know if there was a deeper purpose.
Looking down at the photo in his hand, the person in the photo is a middle-aged man with a bald head and a thin figure.
"This is a member of my club named William Brooke. Killed in his home a week ago.
He is the only son in his family, his parents are both bakers, he completed his work-study studies at Cambridge University, after graduation, he was appreciated by a member of parliament and embarked on a career. "
Mycroft picked up his teacup and took a sip of black tea, staring at the girl dressed as a teenager in front of him.
Since Jiqiu appeared beside his younger brother, he sent someone to check the girl's information and found a lot of interesting things.
But he wasn't his younger brother, and after confirming that Jiqiu was harmless, Mycroft didn't go any further.
But thanks to Sherlock Holmes, after his brother's suspended animation and retirement, he refocused on Jiqiu.
"But I heard some rumors that William Brook planned to make some deals with an Italian named Francis a month ago." Mycroft waited for Jiqiu to finish writing and drawing in the notebook before continuing, "That transaction is about the blueprint of the successful improvement of weapons. If that blueprint falls into the hands of a hostile country, it will cause great turmoil to England."
Jiqiu knew that what Mycroft said was a rumor, but since he said it, he was sure that it was true. "Only William Brook's status, how did he get that blueprint?"
"He is the lover of the weapon improver." Mycroft said it directly without leaving any rags for others, and without any scruples about Jiqiu's gender and age, "And that person will be with him next month. A noble lady is married."
Isn't this a cheating marriage?Jiqiu had the first thought, but she knew that the moral standards of later generations would not work in this era, so she could only listen to Mycroft silently.
However, her question was solved. No matter whether it was a man or a woman, they would not be too defensive towards the person next to her. It is not surprising that William Brook could get the blueprint.
"William Brooke stole the blueprint and wanted to take revenge on that man, but he hesitated at the last moment. He didn't want to be a traitor, so he unilaterally broke the contract." Mycroft expressed indifference, without any Emotion said, "After the buyer behind the Italian learned about this, he killed him in order to get the blueprint."
"He hasn't got the blueprint yet, right?" Jiqiu calmly analyzed the ins and outs of the matter.
"Yes, William Brook hid the blueprint in a very hidden place. The person behind it has never been found."
Mycroft twisted a butter cookie into his mouth, "So can you accept this commission, Miss Gary?"
"There is one last question." Jiqiu looked at Mycroft without dodging his eyes, "Why did you come to me instead of asking the people around you to investigate this matter?"
"Because some little mice came, and they haven't been cleaned up yet." Mycroft smiled.
"Then I accept this commission." Facing Mycroft Holmes, the pressure is far greater than that of Sherlock Holmes. Jiqiu always has a sense of fear of being seen through anytime, anywhere when facing this big Holmes, even if he is more powerful than Sherlock Holmes. My former boss is more gentlemanly.
"I'm a little flattered by your sudden visit." Jiqiu poured a cup of black tea for Mycroft Holmes. She knew that it would be best to get straight to the point when dealing with such a person. "Of course, if it's a commission or something, I might not be able to do it."
