Miss Watson of the Sherlock Holmes

"That's what you call 'unaccountable' affection, poor lady."

At this time, Hook suddenly picked up the demeanor that he should have as the captain of the Ivy in the clouds. He took a big step and stood just right to separate Ursula from the Greek soldier: "You still It’s too polite, let me say that human girls of your age all have this problem.”

"Too much pursuit of so-called etiquette, and I can't say rude words to those rude guys." Hook blocked Ursula and knocked off Xi's hand that was trying to kiss her, with a dignified look Said: "Remember, miss. This kind of thing is not called "inexplicable", but harassment."

"Pirate, get out of the way." The Xi who interjected slightly turned sideways, with a kind of inherent arrogance in his voice: "This is a matter between me and this lady witch, you know the rules."

The sound was still metallic, and Ursula couldn't help standing on tiptoe, looking over the umbral's shoulder for a few more glances.She didn't know why, although she couldn't see the expression on the soldier's helmet, she always felt that the soldier was smiling.

"I don't know if the Greek army's rules are to slander your compatriots behind their backs, ha! Or talk nonsense to the other party's fiancee." Hook's tone was full of gunpowder and full of momentum, but the leader Xi was sitting on a horse. With a tall head and a tall horse, the geographical location is condescending, and it naturally has an advantage in the aura field.

After raising his head for a while, the umbral also noticed this. In order not to lose his momentum in the next scolding, he fought back, grabbed Ursula's cuff, and took several steps back together until they were in contact with each other. It was only at a comfortable distance from the neck that he let go of his hands, and used the pirate-like expression that he used for business.

Ursula touched the back of her hand, and Xi almost touched it with a helmet just now: "I think..."

"Miss Ursula, stand back, it's about the dignity of the Ivy!"

"...then you continue." Ursula took a step back,

Mr. Umbrella was obviously using all his body language and expressions to show his rejection of Xi in front of him.

"They really treated Eric..." he said harshly,

Ursula felt that there was a lot of story in this "sure enough", and the small expression of the umbral floating over from time to time also hinted that she could ask herself, preferably in front of Xi, but Miss Witch held a grudge quite a bit, even if the captain This protective action of the husband now shows that he still has a conscience as a "friend", but Ursula thinks that being a human being should be fair, especially for Eric's friends, they should be treated consistently.

"Ah, I'm such a good and understanding girl." Ursula felt a little moved when she thought of this.

The heavily armed Xi Shu on the opposite side turned his gaze over, obviously looking at her.

While Hook was swearing, the content was generally wishing to be a man, and it sounded like there was a lot of old grudges, and he also glanced at her from the corner of his eye.There was also the group of Greek soldiers standing not far away. Although they all wore helmets that completely covered their faces, Ursula would bet that they were paying attention to the situation here.

So Ursula deftly bypassed Hook, and under the puzzled eyes of the other party, she jumped in front of Xi who seemed very rude to Hook.

"Miss Ursula!" He tried to call out to the other party from behind, and at the same time ran two steps forward, so as to prevent Xi from doing any more excessive behavior.

"Please help me!" Ursula ran under the opponent's horse, first lowered her head, and when she raised her head again, her eyes were already filled with tears, and her eyelashes flicked slightly, and the tears fell Roll down.

The soldier's hand that was holding the rein firmly tightened all of a sudden, and the clean white horse he was riding snorted dissatisfiedly because of the sudden tightening of the rein.

Ursula shifted her position indiscriminately so as to avoid the direct front of the horse, and then she reprimanded the umbral in a very sad tone: "I was actually acting just now, pretending to be calm, it's all this pirate Those who persecuted me, he held me hostage!"

Miss Witch raised her face, her body trembling slightly, she looked weak, but her fingers pointed firmly towards the umbral.

"what?"

Hook, who was suddenly accused of being a kidnapper, almost tripped over his left foot and fell over his right foot, staring at Ursula with betrayed eyes.

"What nonsense are you talking about, we are in a wave."

"No, we are not. Because I have nothing to do with Mr. Holmes since Egypt, and you, as his friend, have nothing to do with me."

There was an uproar among the other Greek soldiers who were watching the excitement quietly, but these movements were quickly suppressed, and they turned into a very obvious silent whispering.

"This gentleman." Ursula glanced over there, and then continued to accuse: "This pirate, he, my ex-fiancé, and some relatives of my ex-fiancé, planned this ridiculous kidnapping together in an attempt to kidnap me Send that throne."

"I just escaped from there." She pointed to the ruins of 221 Baker Street.

The leader Xi didn't immediately respond to Ursula's accusation. A few steps behind him, the other Xi's warrior who had been playing the role of a wooden man let him do his best coughed dryly, reminding him that this Xi had to react .

"Over there? Was there anyone else there before?" Xi's warrior comforted his mount, looked at Miss Witch, and asked in a muffled voice.

"Yes, I escaped from a man who called himself "Moriarty"." Ursula was tearful, but her tone was extremely serious.

"There's no Morrie at all..." Hook, who knew who was originally in the grid on Baker Street, wanted to interrupt Ursula, but was bumped suddenly.

At this time, the knight of the Greek army stood between the two of them.

"Go on, miss." The knight encouraged: "Your clues are very important."

"You know, that "Moriarty"...where did he go now?" Another knight who hadn't spoken all this time took a step forward and spoke up.

"I know, he possessed Miss Rose at the last moment."

"Is Rose the girl who has something to do with the alchemist, one of the ridiculous queen candidates?" This Xi's voice was colder, and it seemed especially cold with his words.

"... yes." Ursula nodded.

"In this way, your information is correct." He rushed to his colleague and nodded.

"It seems that we have a tough battle to fight, let's go quickly, we can't waste time, Ai...uh, Ai... Lun, those sky demons should be in place already."

"What sky demon?" Hook looked at Ursula blankly, hoping that the other party could give him a hint.

It was beyond his expectation that Xijun came in. What happened to the demon in the air? Could it be that Xijun missed his old opponent?

He instinctively felt that this matter was not right, and it might have a big impact on the overall situation.

"Can you take me with you?" Ursula ignored the umbral that had materialized as a question mark, and stared seriously at the Greek knight who was uttering surprise words at the beginning and courting her.

"Ursula Watson!" Hook was really angry: "They are a bunch of sanctimonious hypocrites, you can't go with them."

"Are you accepting my courtship by saying that?"

"If you can get off your horse, stand on the ground, and make a formal contact request with me, I should agree." Ursula took out a handkerchief and wiped away her tears with a sincere face.

Click.

The umbral crushed a black branch in anger.

There was muffled laughter from under Hee's helmet, and Ursula looked at him pitifully.

"Not yet. It should be said that the time and the scene are wrong." The knight said with a smile. Even though the sound was still distorted by metal conduction, everyone present could hear the joy of the other party.

"If you're going to propose to a beautiful and smart Miss Witch like you, it should be more formal." He leaned forward and extended an arm, and Ursula felt a tightness around her waist, and then her body was lifted.

After a whirl, Ursula's back rested on the silver armor of a material she was rather curious about.

"Hey!" Hook was stopped by another Xi, and he yelled when he saw the girl being led onto the horse.

"You bandits, what is the difference between your behavior and the demons in the sky?"

However, no one paid any attention to him. Those Xi should have a certain discipline, just watching from afar, not coming over.The only three participating human witches, Xi and Ying, maintained an amazing tacit understanding and ignored him.

The two knights nodded to each other, tugged on the reins, and rode away.

The Greek soldiers who were watching followed closely behind.

"What's going on here!" The umbral messed up his hair and squatted on the ruins.

The previously inconspicuous chessboard lines became obvious, but they were no longer flat. No matter what kind of terrain the grid was, it was now covered with light and dark branches in a strange balance, although the ground was light. The world of trees, but those intertwined root systems did not leave room for pedestrians because of their own attributes.

Fortunately, the Greek army always marched in the air, and this team rode their horses above the clouds, higher than the roots of the long fallen tree, which also allowed Ursula to see what happened to those ominous thorns. from where.

"It's actually empty." Above the clouds, there is no soil for a tree to grow, but the tree doesn't seem to need any attachment points, it doesn't even have roots, and its empty trunk is open.

"You can go down inside." The knight behind her introduced her.

"Go down?" Ursula looked at the black hole for a while: "It's like an abyss."

"The analogy is very appropriate. Congratulations, miss." The knight said with a smile: "You have passed your rhetoric this semester."

"Pass?" Miss Witch's tone was dangerous.

"Oh, I'm sorry I made a mistake, it's excellent." The knight and his desire to survive added: "It's the abyss, and many characters who can't be underestimated even in the age of mythology have entered it, trying to to find out its depth, but they all had to return without reaching the finish line."

"Is it bottomless?" Ursula understood the implication of the words.

"Yes, a tree that is still growing vigorously, so may it have a bottom, or a fixed height?"

"Or, whether humans or elves in this world, how can they stop doing stupid things? This world is advancing, but at the same time it is also regressing." The tone of the elf knight did not have much ups and downs: "Civilization and barbarism , will appear in an era, in a country, and even in the same person at the same time."

"What we can do is to suppress the savage side as much as possible, so that the tree that grows positively can be more wanton."

"So it's not the first time it has appeared." Ursula tried to find a comfortable angle to lean on, but the metal armor obviously couldn't serve as a good backrest. After being knocked by those cold metal parts a few times, she decisively Sit up straight and keep your distance from the knight.

There was another muffled laugh behind him.

Ursula snorted, and elbowed the man in a rude manner.

"Cough." The Xi next to him suddenly coughed dryly: "Yes, miss. It's not the first time it has appeared, but it's all in a small area. It's the first time it's so exaggerated."

"Thank you Kepu."

Ursula blushed a little, and silently withdrew her hand.

The two rode quietly for a while.

"For a pirate captain whose side job is to be an information dealer..." The knight who led her was quiet for a while, and then suddenly said: "The most painful thing is that a certain victory that is about to be obtained is cut off, and all the cards in his hand are invalid. The development of the situation blinded the eyes."

"He will always suffer from the finale." The knight said: "For a umbral born from the fear and fantasy in people's minds, this kind of mental punishment is more severe than the physical punishment, and this is only the first step. Then he has to take responsibility for what he did because he made it his own."

"That would be great." Ursula nodded, and then stopped, realizing that the other party should only be able to see the back of her head.

"You are like this now, what should you do as a magician? I heard that when the queen enters the palace, the magician will perform." Ursula asked curiously.

"Ah, this." The knight said briskly: "Don't give her a chance to enter the palace, otherwise I can resign."

"Huh?" Ursula suddenly wanted to take off the other party's helmet, but she couldn't see the other party's expression, and her voice couldn't fully express her emotions, which was too difficult to guess.

"In my plan, the king will at least successfully enter the palace." Ursula tried to turn around: "Then it will be the main event."

"My original plan was the same, but because I discovered something, I changed my mind." The knight said: "Because of having a "Moriarty", everything becomes troublesome, but it is also easier."

"What do you mean?"

"In reality, Sherlock Holmes is still there, but Moriarty's henchmen have long been cut off. You know, London is still a reflection of London's dream world at this stage, not a reflection of reality. The Queen's return will make this place more realistic. Let’s make some, but is this really a good thing?”

"But if we infer from Hook's behavior, Li London already has independent thinking." Ursula was a little puzzled: "It already has life, isn't that inevitable?"

"This is where we have been misled." The knight summoned a stronger wind, lifted the clouds, and flew towards the grid with the red throne.

"Misleading?" Ursula's voice was muffled by the howling wind, so she had to raise her voice: "Misleading what?"

"Hook was born from the sea of ​​stars, did his birth add anything to the sea of ​​stars?"

"But Xinghai is not a city!" Ursula shouted.

"The oceans on the ground corresponding to the Xinghai are not the shared property of mankind." The knight said: "The oceans also belong to the country, miss."

Under the reminder of the other party, Ursula suddenly realized: "Ah, I understand! We have been misled. Some people want to make Gensokyo a reality, so they have been linking the existence of the queen with the evolution of London. In fact, Even if London's consciousness becomes a god, it doesn't matter, the reflection of the dream does not need to correspond to reality one by one, it can have no queen, or it can have multiple queens..."

"That's right, only when everyone thinks that there can only be one queen, and that London's ruling power must be consistent with reality, will there be trouble. The law of collective consciousness of human beings unique to Fairyland."

"So we have to stop the red side first, and stop this war that actually doesn't need to exist at all?"

"Wouldn't that be a waste of their painstaking arrangements."

"what do you mean?"

"Didn't you think that the esteemed gentleman has already written the first act, and you have performed the beginning of the second act beautifully?" The knight laughed.

"Ah, that's for..." Ursula, who suddenly thought of Mr. Holmes' hint, swallowed the following words: "I see."

"They're so cunning," she sighed, but couldn't help smiling.

"Our arrangement has also been taken into account by them. I guess I will have to make up lessons when I go back." The knight said despondently, but his voice was smiling. He suddenly raised his voice, and the wind element made his voice louder.

"Since the demons in the air have set off! The Xishen must gather!" The elf laughed loudly: "Let us bring London a grand dream, in which everything is as the children wish, and justice will be done." Victory over evil."

The people under the red throne were startled by a voice in the sky, someone was singing, and they were getting closer and closer.

Miss Sophie, who was depressed because of the situation she was in, was moved in her heart. She looked above the clouds and listened to the war song of the elf:

"...empty your heart of mortal dreams.

The long wind has awakened, the leaves are whirling,

……

If anyone gazes at this galloping procession,

We disturb his business,

We disturb the hope in his heart. "

(Quoted from Yeats' "The Gathering of the Gods")
