[Comprehensive] The daily life of Miss Downton Fourth
Chapter 29 Who Said the Truth
Now that the two teams met and Chatsworth Manor was very close, the Duke couldn't let them leave like this.
He asked the Davis family to go to the manor for dinner, and the previous incident was raging in Derbyshire.The Duke took great pains to invite Sherlock Holmes, a very famous consulting detective, to prove that he did not sell fake books, and invited them to dinner to tell others about his innocence.
The admiration on the Duke's face when he just introduced Sherlock was very obvious. The winking Mr. Davis quickly understood the key and accepted the invitation gladly.
The picnic ended early because of this chance encounter. Since the dinner party was going to be attended, both the ladies and gentlemen had to change their clothes and hurry over.
On the way back, Joanna pulled Cynthia to guess whether the matter had been resolved. It seems that the buyer lied?The Duke of Devin is really innocent, he sold his collection reluctantly and caused a lot of trouble.
Cynthia didn't rush to judge, she didn't know much about this matter, almost all the information was obtained through Joanna.And Joanna didn't know how many times the news she heard had changed hands. Just knowing these things, Cynthia couldn't know who told the lie.
She is not that big detective, she can deduce the case and find the culprit without going to the scene and listening to other people's descriptions.They ah, maybe the brain structure is different.
The Davis family attached great importance to this dinner, and even Sean, who had always been casual, was forced to change into a brand new dress.
Coupled with his height of 1.8 meters eight, it instantly gave him a lot of points.From a delicious little fresh meat to a British gentleman, even Cynthia took a look at him, thinking that people really depend on clothes.
The Davis family's car stopped at the gate of Chatsworth Manor. Sean got out of the car first, turned around and reached out to Cynthia to help her get out of the car.
Unexpectedly, Joanna was the first to come down. Seeing her cousin's disappointed expression, she couldn't help but patted his hand in midair heavily.
I am here to worry about his love, but he doesn't even look at this cousin who is thinking about him.He was reluctant to even help her out of the car, which was too discriminatory.
When the two of them made such small movements, Cynthia had already got out of the car quickly.She glanced innocently at the angry Joanna and Sean who was also wronged next to her. Who could tell her what this was all about?What's the fuss.
Of course, it was not Cynthia's turn to greet the host. Mr. Davis only briefly introduced to the Duke that she was a classmate of his niece and also came to visit his house.
Cynthia hadn't formally stepped into the social world, and had only met Duke Devon a few times at the previous banquet, so she was not worried that they would recognize her.
Sure enough, Duke Devon just thought that this little girl looked familiar, and then thought that there might be some similarities between beauties and beauties.He stopped paying attention to Cynthia, and today his focus was on the Davis couple who had lived in Derbyshire for a long time.
Cynthia made up her mind today to be a very low-key person, and she would not speak unless she could.Anyway, no one here knew her except Sherlock Holmes and Mr. Watson, and they were not very busy people.
As soon as Watson was mentioned, I saw Mr. Doctor.Watson also saw Cynthia. He talked to the people around him and walked towards Cynthia.
"The last time we met was at Downton Abbey, Miss Cynthia. Your injuries from the previous car accident are not serious."
Hearing him mention the car accident, Cynthia subconsciously raised her hand and touched her forehead.Not long after, the scar hadn't completely faded away, so Cynthia wasn't too worried. Cora complained about her carelessness a few times.
"Oh, if you don't mention such a shallow scar, Watson, Miss Cynthia may have forgotten it. After all, she is a very bold person, and she won't take such a small matter to heart."
Why did this sound so wrong? Cynthia recalled that she hadn't offended the detective recently.Why is he looking for something for nothing?Is the case not fun, or is it too idle?
"Long time no see, Mr. Holmes. I haven't introduced you yet. This is Sean Davis. Sean, this is Mr. Sherlock Holmes and Mr. John Watson."
Watson glanced at Sean who was two steps away from Cynthia, and gave him a slight nod.He doesn't have Sherlock's ability to see through other people's lives with two eyes, but judging from his experience of multiple relationships, this Mr. Davis is not easy to Cynthia.
When he mentioned the car accident just now, Mr. Davis' breathing became obviously tense.If there weren't too many people here, he might have to drag Cynthia to check.
At this moment, Sean simply greeted the detective duo, then lowered his head and asked about Cynthia's car accident.Cynthia's height is only 1.6 meters [-], and Sean really has to lower his head to talk to her softly.
The way the two were whispering was caught by Watson, and he stabbed Sherlock.
"It seems that Miss Cynthia has quite a few suitors. Last time, Sir Edward, plus this Mr. Davis. According to your observation, which one will she choose?"
Watson has always respected women, and admired Cynthia, who was somewhat bold and rebellious in her actions.He still wanted to know the answer to this question, but Sherlock only hummed in disinterest.
"You should also be polite to the lady. Don't just mock her for her actions. With your attitude, she still has a good temper when she responds to you kindly. If Mrs. Hudson is here, she will definitely scold you."
That old lady was the one who stabilized the tranquility of the entire Baker Street, but if she was upset, she would cut off 221b's food.Only when she was happy would she invite the client in with a good attitude, otherwise there would be no notification.
Sherlock twitched the corner of his mouth, and said rarely, "She wouldn't choose either. Sir Edward is a fool with an empty mind, and this Sean is a fool with only love in his mind. If she was smart, she wouldn't choose these two people. "
If his news is correct, the property of Sir Edward's family has been increasing year by year, and he has also expanded his family's business in the past two years.The real estate in London definitely only increased by a lot. Can this be called a fool?Still empty-headed?
Well, it's not the first day that my friend thinks differently from ordinary people.Watson shook his head, not going to take Sherlock's thoughts to heart.
"If you let me say, Mr. Davis is more likely. Miss Cynthia is not a person who cares about the amount of property, and that Sir Edward has no advantage. Moreover, there have been a few scandals with actresses in the gossip tabloids. , it can be seen that he usually hangs around those clubs. On the contrary, this Mr. Davis looks very innocent."
The more Watson talked, the more he felt that his inference was correct. When he turned to look at Sherlock, he realized that he had put down his wine glass and walked to stand elsewhere.When the people next to him talked to him, he would return a smirk that could no longer be fake.
What was this sudden awkwardness again? Watson couldn't figure it out and shook his head helplessly.Watson, who considers himself an emotional expert, never thinks of his friends in the direction of jealousy. After all, the shared life in the past few years has made him know Sherlock very well. This is a detective without emotions.
Cynthia, who was explaining to Sean that the car accident was not serious at all, didn't pay attention to Sherlock. Sean looked like an academic talent and couldn't stop talking.
She has heard more than 20 reasons why driving is unsafe, and the topic is developing on how to protect life safety.Cynthia's head hurts from this mess, what is it all about.
Seeing the distressed expression on Cynthia's face, Xiao En realized that he seemed to be too obsessed again.If those girls before had turned around and left at this time, Cynthia was still standing here.
"Sorry, I've talked too much."
Cynthia looked at him with the eyes that you finally realized. It was just a small car accident that she got here and was taught by Sean. Is she getting worse and worse?
When the dinner officially started, the Duke of Devon toasted everyone and first raised the case of authentic and fake works.
"I invite everyone to come here today, mainly for the recent rumors. First of all, I want to declare that the collection I sold is absolutely impossible to be fake. It is an insult to my personality. Herman misunderstood me before, Now the truth of the matter has been announced, we are all the ones who were deceived and misunderstood, and the real culprit is someone else."
As he spoke, he turned his head to the right to look at a young, slightly lighter man with a handsome appearance.
He said: "I shouldn't have misunderstood you because of being deceived, I hope you can forgive my mistake."
That man was actually Herman the Duke said, so it seems that the new Duke is really a kind person.After such a twists and turns, he could still sit with the person who made the trouble.
The other party apologized, and the Duke readily accepted it, saying that the matter was officially over.The prisoner is Herman's professor friend. His obsession with Shakespeare exceeded the moral bottom line, and he secretly cheated and planted money.
The other party was a duke, and Herman was just the son of a baron. My friend thought that Herman would suffer from this dumbness, but he didn't expect him to tear his face directly.As a result, the matter got out of hand, and the Duke invited Holmes through the police to solve the matter for his own reputation.
Cynthia connected things together through their words, and it turned out that both of them were victims.Fortunately, Mr. Holmes has caught the criminal, otherwise the new Duke would have lost not only money but also reputation.
The other guests who were invited all expressed their feelings about where the pot fell. Fortunately, the truth has been announced now, otherwise we would all be deceived.
Sherlock, who broke the case for a while, became the most popular person, and praise was like asking for money.Some people saw that his reaction was always cold, so they compromised and went to Watson, speaking tactfully and reservedly.
It was not the first time for Watson to deal with this group of people, and a few words changed the topic.No matter what, he would never agree to the next request. It was written on his face: Please go to 221B Baker Street if you really need it. Thank you. We welcome all clients, but it depends on the detective's mood.
Cynthia amused herself by deciphering this sentence, and she snickered in the corner.He didn't realize that his appearance fell into the eyes of Sherlock on the opposite side.
He elegantly cut a piece of steak in his hands, lowered his eyelashes, and asked in a cold voice, "Did you go to Belfast?"
This place name is very strange to others, only Cynthia knows that he is talking to herself.
She slightly restrained her smile, "Travel, Mr. Holmes. Belfast is a very romantic city. Its food and handicrafts are very attractive. I spent a very happy time there."
Cynthia's eyes were full of sincerity, and no one except Sherlock thought she was lying.Sean next to her also echoed that if there is a chance, she must go to Belfast to have a look.
Sherlock knew that this witty ghost couldn't tell the truth, and she could lie to herself by opening her mouth.From the last time in the carriage, Sherlock felt that Cynthia had a secret.
She hid it well and was not found by others.Only when the commission was mentioned last time, Sherlock was too emotional to grasp that clue.
She couldn't solve that problem by herself, so she wanted to ask herself.But Cynthia flinched again, explaining that there must be something about it that he couldn't know.
Her going to Belfast must have something to do with that matter, what exactly is it, Sherlock is very interested in such unknown things.
Cynthia just watched Sherlock neatly cut the steaks on the dinner plate, each piece was cut along the veins, and they were all about the same size.
But I just didn't eat a bite, what is this for, thinking about dissecting and cutting the steak?This hobby is in line with the other party's personality.Cynthia stared at the plate and complained in her heart, but Sherlock directly picked up the plate and handed it to her.
"You keep looking at it because you want to eat it? It just so happens that I have cut it all up, and I haven't moved a piece. Do you want it?"
Brother, you can look at the occasion.Dinner, brother, how can you bring me the plate?You thought it was your own dining table, what do you want, Cynthia screamed frantically in her heart.But there was no expression on his face, and he raised his hand slightly to let the servant beside him come over very naturally.
"Mr. Holmes said to remove the plate. He no longer wants to use it."
After the manservant bent down to listen to her, he took the plate with his hands in pure white gloves and quickly removed it.
Both Watson next to Sherlock and Sean next to Cynthia saw this, and Watson was completely caught in the trap.As for Sean, he thought he looked at Holmes secretly, but he didn't know what kind of result he came to.
"You took the wrong medicine?"
Watson asked Sherlock in a low voice, and Sherlock continued to cut the other meat on the plate without being affected.
"As a doctor, you don't know that I haven't taken medicine? Don't make me doubt your professionalism."
Watson resisted the urge to pick up his collar, "Of course I know, I mean what were you doing just now? Don't you know what occasion this is?"
"You know that I am a person who can do whatever I want?"
The smile on Sherlock's face when he said this must have been extravagant. Cynthia lowered her head, pretending that she couldn't see or hear anything, and didn't even look at him.
