Chapter 35 Before Marriage 1

"Mary? Why are you here?"

John finishes his lunch at noon every day, and at about 11:30, he routinely sorts the garbage at home and Mrs. Hudson into several green rectangular trash cans less than five meters away from the entrance of 221B. When he left the door, he saw a woman who was beyond his expectations.

"Hey! John, long time no see." Today, Mary is wearing a black gauze dress, black high heels and a long windbreaker with imitation leather and a white thick mink collar. Holding a small black bag decorated with pearls all over the body, with a pretty smile, he waved and greeted John kindly.

"Uh, yeah, we haven't seen each other for a long time, how are you doing?" John replied politely while skillfully sorting the gray garbage bags in his hand into several green garbage bins, then clapped his hands, and finally Walked towards Mary and finally stood in front of her.It's been a long time, but in fact it hasn't been more than three months. Three months ago, they were close boyfriends and girlfriends, but now they both have an illusion that they are just people and nothing else.John suddenly felt a complex and unspeakable sense of bitterness welling up in his heart. When he found the same nostalgic look on Mary's face, he was startled, quickly retracted his thoughts, and at the same time raised the corners of his mouth, suggesting: "That... Why don't you go up and sit down? It seems that you haven't been to 221B before."

"No need, I just passed by this street. It's such a coincidence that I ran into you." Mary stuck out her tongue mischievously, as if she was the lively, cheerful woman who loved to act like a baby to John.As the cold wind blew, Mary raised her hand to cover up the blond hair that was blown on her forehead and pulled it behind her ears. She raised her head and looked at the place she had no chance to visit before and never had the chance to set foot again. ——A love nest that belongs only to her ex-boyfriend and another man whom she likes very much.

Mary looked at John at the same level. She knew that John was nervous now, because every time John was nervous, his hands would not consciously hang down on the sides of his thighs, and the palms would keep repeating the movements of stretching and clenching. Mary felt that this Small habits, maybe even John himself has never noticed it?With a comforting smile, Mary said, "Seeing this famous house, I feel really complicated."

"Mary, I'm sorry." John hesitated for a long time and murmured.Not only did Mary have mixed feelings when she saw 221B, but so did he when he was confronted with this woman again.

"Oh forget it! Since the breakup, how many 'sorry' sentences have you nagged at me? It should be no less than 10 sentences. In the relationship between a man and a woman, you have nothing to be sorry for me. "Fanzheng is nothing more than my unrequited love that you don't want, that you can't ask for.Like John is her own thing, it has nothing to do with John, and he doesn't need to feel guilty. If a hundred sentences of "I'm sorry" can offset the four words "I don't love you", she is willing to be in John's ear every day Say it a thousand times and ten thousand times until John gets dizzy and tinnitus.

"I don't want to go to your and Sherlock's house, can you find another place to buy me a cup of coffee? Don't forget, you still owe me the most expensive meal."

"Then... How about this Debis Cafe in front?" John glanced around, and then pointed to a large floor-to-ceiling glass directly opposite where they were standing, with a simple wooden signboard cafe, ask Mary.

"I just wonder if there are any particularly expensive things for sale there?" Mary glanced at John and asked expectantly.

"Mary, don't worry about ordering food. If you can't finish eating, you can take it home." John also remembered what happened to them at the Chinese restaurant on Mary Le Boon Road. Sherlock broke the promise that he had made to Mary. , Later, too many things happened, so it was delayed. I have to say that this kind of thing had to be brought up by a lady, which really made John a little embarrassed.

"Then it's a deal! Please pack coffee and cakes for 30 people later, and I will give them to all the colleagues in the clinic as favors." Mary patted John on the shoulder unceremoniously, and followed closely Behind John is a busy street full of traffic.

"Got it." John turned his head and glanced at Mary with helplessness in his eyes, and then continued to observe the traffic flow left and right. The gentleman protected Mary and walked ahead to open the way.

"Oh John, are you here to buy Sherlock chicken tacos and Yorkshire pudding again?" The chubby boss, wearing a black uniform apron and with a sleek back, stepped out of the wooden high chair after seeing that it was John coming in. He stood up, put his elbows on the edge of the counter and asked with a teasing smile on his face, and then saw Mary coming in after John, the smile on her face gradually changed into surprise, and she looked at John It has also changed.

"Danny, don't make random guesses! We are just ordinary friends, hurry up and serve us a cup of coffee." John looked at the neighbor's wonderful facial expression like a face-changing face in Sichuan opera, and gave him a warning look, but Still explained.Otherwise, God knows if this big mouth will sing about his meeting with Mary so that everyone in Baker Street knows?Moreover, once Sherlock hears this extremely outrageous rumor, he will definitely be tortured to death by that jealous detective!

"Oh dear, I thought you finally abandoned Sherlock?" Taking out a thick order book, Danny blinked, reached out and patted John on the shoulder, and said sincerely to John: " John, if you don't want Sherlock, you can come to me too, I welcome you with open arms anytime."

"Come on, stop joking. Just you? I'm not afraid that George will come back and beat you up! A guy as timid as a mouse wants to learn how to play 3P like others?!" John glanced at the fat man disdainfully. ,Do not make jokes!Who in the whole Baker Street doesn't know how much the fat man loves his little boyfriend who is still a senior at Cambridge?That has definitely reached the outrageous level of "hold it in your hand for fear of falling and hold it in your mouth for fear of melting"?It is impossible to say that he will empathize with another, unless the sun rises from the west! ! !

“A Cornish pasty stuffed with various vegetables and beef or my newest invention, the yo sandwich? The yo sandwich, named after my partner, is made with fresh chicken, bacon, pickles and lettuce. Serve the latest cheddar cheese. After eating it, you will definitely have endless aftertaste and love in your heart.” Danny pointed to the black fluorescent advertising board that he had placed prominently at the entrance as if avoiding it, and made a mouthful. It is highly recommended, uh... In fact, it can also be said to be a strong show off.

"Okay, get me a sandwich and a cup of coffee as usual. Mary?"

"Same thing, replace the coffee with caramel macchiato."

"Didn't you never drink such a sweet drink?" John handed back the meal book to Danny, turned around and walked with Mary to the position closest to the door, even leaning against the floor-to-ceiling windows, asking inexplicably.In John's memory, Mary is a woman who cherishes her figure very much. She always stays away from high-calorie foods in order to wear beautiful clothes, although she loves sweets very much.

"I used to dare not eat too much because I was afraid that I would not be able to wear beautiful clothes in front of my beloved, and I was even more afraid that I would not be the most dazzling and beautiful bride in the world when I got married." Mary put her bag on the wooden rattan A corner of the chair, he waved his hand at John with a nonchalant face, but a nonchalant face does not mean that he will feel better in his heart.Mary had always taken it for granted that she and John would be the happiest couple in the world, that they would have a beautiful baby, and that they would love him equally, regardless of whether they were boys or girls.She likes John, and John is a responsible and good man.It's a pity that all these good hopes are based on the premise that the great detective Sherlock Holmes is dead, otherwise it will become the current ending!The two of them were destined to become strangers after the detective returned. John's heart was always on the detective, and it never changed from beginning to end.

"Is David still in touch with you?" John was silent for a while, and decided to change the subject.

"David and I haven't seen many times in the past two years, but we have been in touch by phone recently." Mary spread her hands and explained.David was her ex-boyfriend. Before meeting John, although they couldn’t be a couple, they still kept in touch with each other on the phone. In Mary’s heart, that man was like a best friend. Unfortunately, he still lost to The honest and honest John.

"Really? He might be a good choice, Mary." John clasped his hands on the solid wood tabletop, and made a serious proposal to Mary.

"Why do you say this?"

"Mary? It's not easy these days to find a lover who is good to you, loves everything about you, and centers on you. Although David broke up with you, I know he has always missed you. I think you should have Did you notice it?"

"E.g?"

"He will put your photo on the desk of the clinic, will remember your birthday and buy you gifts, and will always appear in front of you in time when you need him. You should not let such a good man go. .” Without him, David and Mary would have been a very good loving couple, and so many things would not have happened later.John knew that it was because Mary worked in that clinic that the man would abandon the high-paid surgeon at the Royal London Hospital and become an attending doctor in a small clinic silently.David has always done much more for Mary than he does. He can no longer give Mary the relationship between a man and a woman, and he will never have anything to do with her again. The trajectories of the two of them are doomed. The starting point begins to diverge farther and farther away, and ends with never meeting again.

"At this time, you actually recommended my ex-boyfriend to me. John, do you really not miss our life together at all?" Mary laughed a little sadly.She understands John's kindness, but it's a pity that David loves her, but she still loves this man, how ridiculous.

"I will miss, but not miss you, but miss that I once liked you. Thank you for giving me warmth in my most difficult and painful days. Although we still can't be together in the end, you are the most important thing to me forever My friend, this will never change." John looked straight into Mary's eyes sincerely, yes, Mary was the woman he once liked, but it wasn't 'love', what he loved was Sherlock Holmes.

"I'm going to resign from the clinic, and now I'm working in a newspaper." Mary took a deep breath, calmed down her ups and downs, and then told John.

"So suddenly?" Changing from a hospital to a newspaper office, the span is too big, right?

"It's just entrusted by a friend, it's my good sister Jenny, remember her?"

"John and this beautiful lady, you have all the meals you ordered." The fat Danny walked over tremblingly with the tray in one hand and his waist in the other, interrupting the atmosphere of the conversation between the two who were getting better.Put the tray on the table and put the things in front of the two, and finally patted John on the shoulder vigorously, winking at John: "Man, I will give you an extra fish and chips, free, no need polite!"

"What's the point of that?" John smiled and scratched his short brown hair.

"What's so embarrassing between the two neighbors? Besides, you and Sherlock are regular customers of our store." Danny smiled nonchalantly while holding the plate, then turned to face Mary, and said warmly and kindly: "Then , Beauty, you are welcome, John and Sherlock's friends are our friends."

"Thank you." Mary's face was a little ugly. How could she not understand the hidden meaning behind the words spoken by the cafe owner?In short, Sherlock and John are a couple that everyone recognizes anyway, and if she gets involved, she will be the third party that everyone shouts and beats, right? !

"Then you guys chat slowly, I'll go to work first. VVwVV," Danny stared at Mary in a daze with his elbows propped on his elbow, then turned back to the counter with a smile on his face, continued, and then crypticly from time to time He glanced at John's table.The author has something to say: every morning at 7 o'clock, it will be updated on time, I hope you will collect a lot n_n)
