When Pei Donglai dressed as John Watson

"Yeah, military courage." The man laughed at John's attitude, but in fact, John didn't think he had done anything worth laughing at. "Braveness is clearly a glorification of stupidity, don't you think?"

"I feel the same way, so I never do things I'm not sure about." This is John's answer.

The man choked for a moment, he narrowed his eyes, and looked at the other person arrogantly, with a look of scrutiny in his eyes: "So, you came here prepared?"

"I can't talk about it, because it happened too suddenly." John said, "But this is an obvious provocation, and I can't ignore it. Although I don't have a gun, I know you don't have any killing intent, at least not now, otherwise If so, just relying on your ability, it is not very difficult to assassinate me, is it?"

John's performance was different from the information the man checked before, but the man was sure that this was indeed John himself, and perhaps the various things he had shown before were probably the problems of the person he was facing.However, this John is much more interesting than the information.

"What is your relationship with Sherlock Holmes?" The man did not change his arrogance, but his expression eased a lot.

"It's okay." John hesitated for a while before deciding to answer.After all, although he and Sherlock have become roommates, they have not actually lived together officially, and it is still unknown whether he can make up with him. "I don't know much about him. I just met him yesterday."

"You just met yesterday, and you became roommates today, and now you're investigating the case together, shouldn't it be time to announce your engagement by the end of the week?"

"..." I suddenly remembered the scene when I and Di Renjie were investigating the * case together. "who are you?"

"It's just the interested parties." The man smiled.

"How could you have something to do with Sherlock?" Thinking of the man's behavior of not even daring to call his cell phone in order to avoid Sherlock's attention, John couldn't help asking, "You don't look like friends."

"You also know him a little bit, and you can see what kind of friends he will have." The man indirectly admitted John's doubts: "Sherlock Holmes and I can be said to be almost friends."

"Then what is your relationship?"

"enemy!"

"Enemy?" John didn't think so.

"Of course, from his point of view." The man sighed, but the smile on his face did not diminish at all: "If he were to say it, he would be a deadly enemy." The man shrugged: "He only wants to make himself attractive." , to dramatize everything."

"Really? In my opinion, you are not an ordinary person." John said so, and then took out his mobile phone from his jacket pocket, because the notification sound of receiving a text message just sounded.

The text message was sent by Sherlock, and the content was [If it is convenient, return to Baker Street. ]

"I hope you haven't been distracted." The man said speciously, but he didn't know if his distraction meant that he interrupted John's polite words, or implied that the text message interrupted their serious conversation.

John put the phone back in his pocket. He was obviously not in a hurry to go back, so he planned to continue dealing with the man. "No."

The man was very satisfied with John's attitude, and asked seriously: "Are you going to continue working with Sherlock Holmes?"

"Even if I shouldn't, this matter has nothing to do with you, right?" John saw the text message sent by Sherlock, and compared the man's attitude towards Sherlock, and finally remembered why he felt that the man looked familiar.Maybe the man didn't look too much like Sherlock, but the height was almost the same, the hair color was the same, and although the tone of speech was somewhat different, it still made people feel strangely similar to a certain extent.

This man is probably Sherlock's relative.

As for why it is Sherlock's mortal enemy?That's probably a bit of a contradiction.Looking at the man's caring attitude towards Sherlock, and what he said just now that Sherlock considers him his mortal enemy, it is likely that Sherlock unilaterally confronted him.

However, before knowing the man's plan, John didn't feel that he should unilaterally express any kindness. After all, the relationship between the man and Sherlock was just his own guess, and he might be misled, and even if he didn't, in this way, It will also be noticed by men, and then use themselves.

Even though he wouldn't let himself do anything bad, just thinking about being used by someone other than the queen made John feel very uncomfortable.

"It really shouldn't be." The man really didn't notice anything wrong with John, and said to himself.

"So what you said doesn't count."

"If you insist on moving in..." The man's words paused, then he took out a small notebook from the inside pocket of his suit, opened it and glanced at it, and then continued: "For 221b Baker Street, I am willing to provide A substantial fee to relieve your immediate needs."

John raised an eyebrow at this. "Why?"

"Obviously your life is not well off." This was the answer the man gave him.

"But it's obviously conditional, right?" When John was the Minister of Dali Temple, he had encountered many such things, so he knew this situation well, and naturally knew that there would be no unreasonable pies in the sky, and there would be no such things in the world. There is a free lunch, and everything has a price.

"Information." The man put the notebook back, "I don't have any extravagant demands, and I won't let you do anything embarrassing. I just need you to tell me about his recent situation."

"why?"

"I've always missed him." The man replied sincerely. Seeing John's expression seemed a little strange, he continued: "Of course, there are some secrets that have not been mentioned in the missing. Said it was...complicated!"

John took out his mobile phone again-come back as soon as possible if it is inconvenient! sh

"My answer is, no!" John resolutely refused.

"But I haven't mentioned the specific figures yet." The man said with some surprise.

And John's answer was, "Don't waste your time talking."

"You are really loyal and decisive in making decisions." The smile on the man's face became more sincere, and he was both satisfied and dissatisfied with John's rejection.Because he didn't like being rejected by others, but John rejected him because of Sherlock, the person they were discussing and trying to make a deal with.

"No, I'm just not interested," John said.

"Here it is said that there is a 'crisis of trust'." The man said as he took out the notebook again, which contained John Watson's information.

"what is that?"

"Have you already trusted Sherlock Holmes?"

"How do you know?"

"You don't seem like a good friend."

"Have you finished?" John felt that his bad temper, which had finally improved, was about to emerge again.

"I'm afraid someone warned you to stay away from him, didn't you? But I can tell from your left hand that you won't."

see?John felt that the man and Sherlock must be brothers, otherwise they would not have the same bad personality, and they would also like to guess people's hearts.

But form is stronger than people, and he can only endure it for the time being, otherwise, it will be more difficult for him to hail a taxi in this remote place than in Blackston.God knows, John doesn't like living in the open air at all!

Even in his previous life, when he had to go to a distant place to investigate the case, he missed the head and had to sleep in the open, but this is also the previous life.In a world where technology is so advanced and there are hotels and hotels everywhere, John doesn't want to relive the past at all.

So, when the man asked John to hold out his right hand, he thought about it, and finally held out.But instead of reaching for the man, he was lifting up.

The man stepped forward, grabbed John's right hand under his vigilance, and said briskly, "Obviously."

"What do you mean?" In order to escape from the Afghan army, John used a little trick to make others think that because of psychological factors, even if the gun injury healed, his right hand was stiff and difficult. move.He didn't think that a man could see his own appearance, but he had to guard against that possibility.

"Many people are running around in London, only seeing shops and cars on the street, but when you are with Sherlock Holmes, you seem to see a battlefield." The man let go of John's hand and said his own words analyze. "You've got that feeling back, haven't you?"

John looked at him: "What happened to my hand?"

"Your right hand is always stiff. The consultant diagnosed it as post-traumatic stress disorder. She thinks that the root cause is that you can't get rid of the memory of your service." The man said: "Fire her, because the consultant is completely messed up. Wrong. You are under a lot of psychological pressure now, but when I touched your hand just now, it didn't feel like a stone."

"You are not trapped by the war, Dr. Watson." The man stared into Watson's eyes: "It's because I miss you so much."

I guessed half right.

John smiled wryly.

He did miss, but not the war, but the days when he dedicated himself to the Queen of Heaven and served in Dali Temple.

Pei Donglai is a baizi, because of this reason, he has been looked down upon since he was a child, and he can't touch the sun and has no friends.Originally, he had a serious father and a loving mother, but everything was broken by a fire and a massacre when he was 13 years old.

Afterwards, he struggled to survive, and in order to find out the cause of his parents' death, he entered Dali Temple.There, there are his good friend Xue Yong who has always maintained his proud self-esteem and took good care of his father, Zhang Xun who held an umbrella for him, and many colleagues who cooperated in investigating the case...

It's a pity that I can't go back.

As for myself, it seems that I can only use this method to miss the past...
