When Pei Donglai dressed as John Watson

Even if he only met a few short times, John could tell that Sherlock's brother, Mr. Mycroft Holmes, was a very powerful person. Find out in a few days what is the difference between the current self and the previous self and you can see it.

The most rare thing is that he was able to reach out to the military headquarters to find out what kind of life he lived in Afghanistan these years, as well as his living habits, and even what the small daily actions represent. It can be seen that John really has to feel admiration.

Therefore, he, who has a good impression of Yao Sulin, naturally doesn't want to see the people from his hometown whom he seldom met, who were sent back to the country and imprisoned because of the forced smuggling a few years ago. So he wanted to go to Mycroft and ask him if he could help him a little bit.

But John and McCoff have nothing to do with each other. Their only connection is Sherlock, but Sherlock has a feeling of resistance to McCoff, so it is really difficult to ask him to help him speak well in front of McCoff. It's a big challenge.

To be honest, John has never deliberately please others.

In the previous life, for some reason, Tianhou doted on her very much, so even though her parents had both died since she was a child, and she was a very conspicuous white child, Pei Donglai really lived very comfortably at that time.

I still remember that Tianhou's doting on him often caused him to be considered as Tianhou's male favorite, and for a while, Pei Donglai also thought that Tianhou doted on him for such a purpose.It can be said that the so-called "a long time sees people's hearts" is indeed very reasonable, so Pei Donglai can tell that Tianhou really loves herself, not because she wants to be her male favorite, but as if she is her own son love.

Although he didn't know why, Pei Donglai, who had no parents, really liked this kind of closeness with maternal love, which made him often think that if his mother was still alive, he would probably be the same as the Queen of Heaven.

Because of this, in his previous life, even though he was just a small minister of the Dali Temple, Pei Donglai didn't suffer any crimes, and he didn't need to go out of his way to curry favor with his superiors.

For this reason, letting the current John try to establish a good relationship with Sherlock, and then persuade him to intercede with McCoff, is tantamount to going up the mountain of swords and going down the sea of ​​fire.However, if there is a choice, it is estimated that John would prefer to go up the mountain of swords and down the sea of ​​fire.

Anyway, after being an official for so many years, John finally knows how to do some official articles.

Sherlock likes to add two sugars to his coffee, so on rare days when there is no case, John makes a cup of coffee for Sherlock, and then brings it to Sherlock who is so bored that he is going crazy because there is no case.

"Have a cup of coffee, Sherlock." John pointed at the coffee he had brewed, and greeted him with a flattering tone.

This is indeed a rare day, isn't it? !

Since John lived in 221b, this is the first time he has leisure time, because as Sherlock's assistant, he always has to run around with him, and a moment of free time has become a luxury.

Sherlock, who was yelling out of boredom and desperately grabbing his hand, became quiet.He looked up at John, as if observing him, and John sat comfortably on the sofa opposite him, not caring about the other party's observation.

Although everyone said that Sherlock had a pair of eyes that could see through the secrets hidden in everyone's heart, John never cared about it, because from his previous life to this life, he was an upright person, and he didn't stick to trifles.Besides, he couldn't say flattering words, if Sherlock could see his thoughts, John would save his saliva instead, so why not do it? !

"Do you want to ask me for something?" Because of the good relationship between John and himself, Sherlock didn't say 'please', but used the word 'please' instead.He tilted his head as if thinking, and within a minute, Sherlock spoke again: "It's for Yao Sulin."

He doesn't use interrogative sentences because he has already deduced the answer and he is convinced of it.

But Sherlock is indeed Sherlock, he has this ability, and he can be proud of his own ability, because the answer he deduces is completely correct.

"Yes, Sherlock, I really want to talk to you about Yao Sulin." John nodded with satisfaction for Sherlock's reasoning ability, and then entered the topic without a doubt: "She is a good girl , I don't want to see her lose everything she has now because of a little wrong decision in the past."

"She is indeed a good girl, but everyone is responsible for what she has done." Sherlock rejected John's words mercilessly. "John, you know, every minute of every second in our world, people are making decisions, and the decisions they make are usually good and bad, we can't interfere, but they have to make decisions for themselves Responsible, why is Yao Sulin an exception?"

What Sherlock said is indeed very reasonable, but John has never been a person who gives up easily, and although the world has been proposing the principle of fairness and justice, both John and Sherlock know that in this world, there is no It looks so bright on the surface.

"Sherlock, I know you're right, but you know, some people don't have to be responsible for their own decisions, they just need someone to clean up the mess, like..." John was silent for a while, and then he spoke : "Just like me in my previous life, as long as I have the backing of power and influence."

This was the first time that John talked about his past life so formally and seriously, even though he stopped talking about it later.

"But Yao Sulin is just an orphan, and she was an orphan who came to England from across the sea. She has no such thing as power." Sherlock lazily leaned on the sofa, drinking the coffee John made for him, making people feel It looks very freehand.

"There's nothing wrong with her being an orphan, but she has us, doesn't she?" John sighed, trying to convince the other party again. "I know, and you know, that what you say is just that you don't want to ask your mortal enemy. But I see a very familiar feeling in her, and she makes me miss her, just like a little sister."

"Us? Sister?" John's words seemed to touch Sherlock's nerves. For this reason, his eyes looked straight at John again, "Well, maybe you convinced me."

Sherlock stood up suddenly, startling John, but what he said was surprising. "Are you serious, Sherlock? It's unbelievable."

"If you go back on your word, I can accept it." Sherlock raised his eyebrows, disapproving.

"No, I never regret my decisions," John replied.

"That's really thank God." He was tit for tat again.

Although John was in a hurry, but because Sherlock didn't intend to leave immediately, but sat back on the sofa again, John knew that it was useless to be anxious, so he had no choice but to do anything.

John stood up and went to the door to take the coat hanging on the hanger. Just as he was about to walk out the door, Sherlock stopped him: "Where are you going?"

"Chinatown."

Sherlock quickly deduced the fact that the other party did not intend to see Yao Sulin in his mind, because John would never lie about military information, and he would tell the truth about where he was going, instead of beating around the bush.But after that, he couldn't deduce what the other party was doing in Chinatown, because he could only infer that the other party might be there to buy some things from China, but he couldn't be accurate enough to deduce what he planned to buy.

"What are you going to buy there?" Sherlock stood up, as if planning to go out with John.

Of course John knew that Sherlock didn't go to see McCoff, because he understood him, and he would never go to McCoff until the last moment, so he must want to go to Chinatown with him.

"You can go and have a look even if you don't buy anything, can't you?" John said, "It's my hometown after all. Even though thousands of years have passed, many things are no longer there, but the shadows of those things are still there. Make me forget."

"You love it? You love your hometown?"

"Of course." John nodded, his face heavy: "Because that's my home." But he quickly adjusted his emotions and brought himself back to normal. "Maybe we can stop by for a Chinese meal. You know, I didn't have as many dishes at that time as there are now. Many of the ingredients in the dishes were only available after the Tang Dynasty. However, even if the taste changes, I will You can still taste the shadow of the previous flavor.”

John said some happy things, then he opened the door and let Sherlock take a step ahead. After locking the door, he walked to Sherlock who had been waiting for him: "When I get there, maybe I can Tell you what has changed and what has not changed, even those jugs and teacups."

"Then I really want to thank you for letting me learn more."

"you are welcome."

John flagged down a taxi and got in with Sherlock.
