[Shen Xia + HP] In the name of a detective

Mycroft was sitting behind the desk, fiddling with the black umbrella in his hand, looked up at Aurora who was facing her with her head down, and asked leisurely, "So, Sherlock has already exposed your identity? "

"Hmm." Aurora answered, wringing her fingers, her eyes fixed on her fingertips.

"He already knew?" Although it was a question, Mycroft's tone was firm and unquestionable.

"Hmm." Aurora has never been able to deal with this big boss, so she replied nervously.

"I didn't expect you to keep it from him." Mycroft said flatly, without any extra emotion, but it just made Aurora feel that he was blaming her.

"The subordinate is incompetent." Aurora almost buried her head in her lap, almost crying out loud.

"You're the first person to make him wait until now to confirm his guess about you." Mycroft didn't really blame her, but he was used to putting pressure on his subordinates. Simply can not stop.

Aurora's eyes lit up.So, is the big boss praising her?Ahhh, I'm really excited to be praised by the big boss.

Although I thought so, I couldn't really say it out of my mouth: "The mission failed, and the subordinates are willing to accept the punishment."

Mycroft said nonchalantly, "Your task is to spy on Sherlock Holmes, not to spy on Sherlock Holmes without being detected."

So, no matter what, she will continue to stay by Sherlock's side to monitor him. Why does she always feel that the big boss did it on purpose?She did know that Mycroft had always cared too much about his younger brother, but it wasn't that...

It's not that Aurora is boasting, but as an MI[-] ace agent, she really has never taken on such a simple task.In other words, asking her to spy on Sherlock Holmes is indeed a bit of a waste.

Her boss, Mycroft Holmes, must have had a purpose in pushing her to Sherlock's side so deliberately.

Could it be that the big boss has begun to doubt her identity?Help!She refuses to be Ferrero!

Aurora seemed to confirm her guess and wanted to ask Mycroft something.However, she dared not ask.

Aurora, who came out of Mycroft's office trembling like walking on thin ice, had had enough of the Holmes brothers, because every time she was with them, she was always the one who was seen through, not the one who saw through everything.

Aurora took a taxi to the hospital for a change of heart, because she didn't want to go home at all.Just the thought of Sherlock living next door to her made her sick.

Lying on the hospital bed, Song Jiuhua still smiled lightly and said, "Aurora, you are here."

"Hmm." Aurora responded casually, thinking of Mycroft's suspicion of her, she still felt lingering fear.

"You don't seem to be in a good mood." Song Jiuhua sat up, took a pillow and stood on the head of the bed, and leaned back.

Aurora sighed deeply, and said listlessly: "Yeah, I have the urge to fire the boss. Talking to him is really tiring."

Song Jiuhua nodded slightly, indicating that he was listening.

"There is also his younger brother, who can see through a person in minutes. No matter how many layers of camouflage you put on, he thinks it is your self-portrait. What's more, he likes to show off very much. Although I also like to show off. But he I like to show off more than I do, no matter what I see on you, I will expose you to your face and tell you that your disguise is simply vulnerable." Aurora shrugged and spread her hands with a look of helplessness.

Song Jiuhua smiled when he heard the words, and asked in a weak and lifeless voice: "Does he often treat you like this?"

Aurora recalled it carefully, and replied with a conscience: "Hearing you say that, he is really very polite to me. Before yesterday, he never broke through me."

"It seems that he is very special to you." Song Jiuhua commented.

Aurora replied absently: "Of course, I am his future opponent."

Song Jiuhua smiled without saying a word.

There is no life in the huge forest. The oriole hides in the tree and no longer sings.The rabbit hid in the hole and stopped running.Bamboo shoots are hidden in the ground, unwilling to break through the ground.Everything was eerily silent.

The seven people who had already set up camp came out of their tents, intending to find a nearby water source, fill their empty kettles with water, and find some firewood by the way, to use it as a bonfire at night.

"What's the situation with Allen? We agreed that the eight of us would come together, why did we suddenly say we couldn't come because of an urgent matter?" said a charming girl.

"That's right. Alan has no family and no job. What's the rush?" The girl who was holding the man's arm just now echoed.

"I definitely don't want to come, so I just made up a reason." The voice of the man leading the way at the front was very pleasant, and he said casually.

"But Alan is not the kind of person who will break an appointment." The second girl seemed to be very close to the legendary Alan, and retorted.

"Hey, you didn't say anything, are you upset?" A hoarse male voice teased.

"I didn't..." The little girl lowered her head shyly, her cheeks were flushed.

"Don't bully our little Caroline (Caroline), be careful that Alan will take care of you when you go back." The charming woman teased the little girl leaning on her while protecting her.

"Oh, am I still afraid of him?" The hoarse man smiled contemptuously, then turned to look at the blushing little girl, and said, "Only you, a fool, would believe that guy Allen's nonsense, He lied to you, can't you tell? He called this morning and temporarily canceled the trip, and he doesn't know where he went to fool around last night. "

The little girl was stunned for a moment when she heard these words, and was about to cry out of anxiety.

The man with a hoarse voice didn't notice, and wanted to continue talking about something.

"That's enough!" Another woman who had been silent just now interrupted him and shouted, "Even if you like Caroline and feel dissatisfied with Allen, you can't slander him in front of her like this."

"I didn't slander him, what I said was the truth!" The man tried hard to make others, especially the little girl, believe what he said.

However, the three women standing in front of her shook their heads and expressed their disbelief.

"Henry, you should comment on this." The charming woman stopped the man who was walking in front.

The man glanced at the silent partner next to him, hesitated for a long time, and then said in a generally determined way: "He didn't lie, we have seen Alan with our own eyes..."

He didn't go on, but the others understood what he meant.

When the little girl Caroline heard the words, her eyes widened, and tears filled her eyes.

The other two women wanted to persuade her to look away, but the little girl couldn't listen to a word, she left them and ran away into the depths of the forest.

Seeing this, the man with a hoarse voice shouted Caroline's name anxiously and followed quickly.

The rest of the people looked at each other, at a loss.

Caroline ran forward aimlessly, not knowing where she came from, let alone where she was going.Thinking of those people's evaluation of Allen just now, she burst into tears.

She suddenly felt something in front of her, blocking her way.So she raised her head slowly.

On a relatively open flat ground, there was a coffin made of crystal, and inside lay a man in a fine attire, holding tightly in his right hand an artificially spliced, half-green, half-red, bitten-off... apple.

Caroline started to get scared, but she still walked into the crystal coffin curiously, looked at the expressionless person inside, and stretched out her hand out of nowhere to check her breath.

The man is not breathing.

"Ah!" Caroline finally realized what she saw, and screamed hoarsely.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Lestrade flipped through the detailed information about the case compiled by Police Officer Donovan, and explained to Sherlock and Aurora: "The victim's name is Doris Wilson (Doris Wilson). The time of death was the day before yesterday. Family members Only husband and stepdaughter.

According to Anderson's test report, the red half of the apple in her hand was poisonous, the green half was non-toxic, and the red part was bitten.After testing, the undigested apple in the victim's stomach matched the red half, which should be the bitten one, which can be confirmed as the cause of death.The iron dancing shoes on the victim's feet were put on after being burned red, and had been connected to the scalded skin.

The body was found by seven people who came to camp. According to them, a friend who had originally planned to come also made an appointment, but sent them a message this morning and decided to cancel the trip temporarily.

There are two other cases similar to this case: Beth Katz, who died five days ago, wore a pair of small-sized crystal slippers on her feet, and Sophia Stanovich, who died three days ago. Stanovich, dressed as a witch, cast in a sugar-watered house.It's worth noting that both men, like Doris Wilson, come from reorganized families. "

Aurora, who listened carefully to Lestrade's explanation of the case, had been thinking about it. After listening, she suddenly showed a confident smile, and walked firmly in front of Sherlock next to her.

Never wearing high heels, in order to be at the same level as Sherlock's line of sight, she tiptoed lightly, stared into his gray-blue eyes from the front, and said loudly, "Holmes, let's compete this time, the first to solve the case." How about winning?"

"I'll stay with you to the end." Sherlock accepted the challenge indifferently, and then said again, "It would be boring without a bet."

Aurora said in a big tone, a little arrogantly: "If I lose, you can mention the conditions as you like."

"Me too." Sherlock raised the corners of his lips slightly.

Aurora, who was speaking wildly, suddenly remembered something. She seemed to be hiding from Sherlock after setting up the flag.So she, who was handsome for less than three seconds, froze for a moment, and then fell into deep despair.

The author has something to say:

Queen Aurora is mighty!Who do you think won?
