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

Sherlock is the only consulting detective in the world who has always regarded his work as his life partner.And that Aurora Hopps, who had just entered Scotland Yard, had shown her skills and repeatedly solved strange cases, which caused Lestrade not to come to Baker Street for a long time to ask him for help.

This can be regarded as breaking his peach blossoms for two whole months.

During that time, he had to grow mushrooms at home.

However, one day two months later, Lestrade, who had not seen him for a long time, came to him again for help.It seems that Scotland Yard, a newcomer with a slightly higher IQ than everyone else, has also encountered difficulties.It is impossible to say that Sherlock has no resentment in his heart, after all, he has been cooking salted fish at home for two months.

But of course he wanted to see a case where even Scotland Yard's new experts were helpless.

When she met Aurora for the first time in that bar whose name she didn't know, she was very polite to him, with a stylized smirk on her face.But he could tell at a glance the arrogance that had subsided in her eyes.

Before meeting her, Sherlock predicted that she would be a very different person, at least not just an ordinary Scotland Yard detective.He glanced at her, but didn't see anything.So he looked at her carefully again, but still didn't see anything.

What he has always believed in is that no matter how disguised, he can only paint a self-portrait.But he couldn't see anything on Aurora, as if she was really just an ordinary police detective who couldn't be more ordinary.This is the first time I have encountered this kind of thing, this person is a bit interesting.

But she counted and counted, and she still missed a step.If she is really just an ordinary person, there will be many flaws.In the process of seeing her through slowly, he realized that she was not counted as missing, but was simply ready to be discovered by him.This is all for later.

At the time, Aurora Hopps said she had read articles she had published on her blog, especially the method for identifying 243 types of soot, which benefited her a lot.He could tell that the smile on her face was fake, but what she said was sincere.

Only a few people knew about their soot article, and negligibly few people actually praised it.

This person is really interesting.

The original resentment towards Aurora also dissipated a bit, and he responded that he felt that it was a shame for her to stay in Scotland Yard.But she will also encounter cases that are difficult to solve, he thought to himself, she is nothing more than that.

Later, when analyzing the case, as soon as he discovered something, she could understand what he was thinking.There are very few people who can keep up with his thinking, and she is one of them.It's not tacit understanding, he puts it down to IQ.

As the case progressed, Sherlock found that although Aurora's IQ barely lowered the average value of the entire London, her associative ability was poor, she didn't pay attention to details, and she didn't have the basic ability to handle the case.He knew from that time that she had never worked as a police officer or detective before entering Scotland Yard.This time he was ordered in danger, and as for whose order he received, he was either targeting his mortal enemy or his pseudo mortal enemy Mycroft.

Although this case is said to be difficult, it is not difficult.Half a day was enough for him to find out the truth.But this time, for the first time, he didn't immediately put on an appearance of "I've seen through everything" after figuring out the joints, and started to show off his extraordinary IQ, but chose to keep silent.

Sherlock was curious how long it would take for Aurora to solve the puzzle after being reminded by him.

After she was instructed by him, she immediately figured out what was going on, a little faster than he imagined.

She might be his opponent, of course, he was referring to the future.

After the case was over, he continued to stay at home to grow mushrooms, and unexpectedly found that the Scotland Yard "intelligent" detective lived next door to him.This can be regarded as confirming his previous guess, no matter who she was appointed by, she came to Scotland Yard for him.

Since then, Lestrade seems to be taking precautions. Whenever there is a case that requires Aurora, he always calls Sherlock, and also entrusts Aurora with this glorious and difficult task. .And she also began to get used to communicating with the Morse code tapped on the wall when both of them were at home, euphemistically calling it thrifty and saving phone bills.

At the beginning, Sherlock insisted on sending text messages, but when he felt that it was actually more convenient to type Morse code, he resolutely chose the latter, which was misled by Aurora.

It was the first time he saw her having such a happy chat with someone when the apartment fell from a building.It was a Chinese man who took pictures in time to collect evidence before the police arrived, and he seemed to have known Aurora for a long time.

The case was very simple, and it was solved by Aurora.Sherlock originally expected her to be responsible for driving and take him home, but she actually wanted to go to the restaurant with this orangejuice for dinner.So he expressed extreme dissatisfaction with the fact that Li Chengzhi robbed him of the opportunity to take a taxi, and had inexplicable hostility towards him.So he tried to sabotage their plan, but unfortunately he was unsuccessful in the end.

Li Cheng is very upset.

Later, Aurora inexplicably began to compete with him, and she really would do anything to solve the case before him.According to Lestrade, she had never been so serious when handling the case, and even rushed to his house in the middle of the night and dragged him to the murder scene.

But she was still not as fast as him.

After that, for a long time, she stayed at home and seemed a little depressed.Not only because he hadn't won against him, but also because he didn't know if he had exposed him.He hadn't intended to show that he doubted her identity so quickly, but when he saw that she had tried her best but still lost to him, he just wanted to bully her who was already miserable.

She also reacted quickly, and when she realized that her flaw was discovered, she immediately thought of a corresponding excuse to make up for it.And he naturally knew her tricks, and he didn't even tell her directly that he knew her identity, but acted dubiously, and it was not right to let her continue to pretend, nor was it to be honest.

He made an appointment with her to report on the itinerary to each other, and at the same time he was paid by Mycroft and the mysterious man.In fact, he doesn't care about the money at all. As for what he is doing for it, he hasn't figured it out until now.

In the memory palace of Sherlock Holmes, there is another unsolved mystery.

In fact, it wasn't that he was too lazy to send too many texts to Aurora, but that period of time was really boring and there was nothing to say, and he didn't have the ability to write a very ordinary day in a picture like her. ability.So every day, what I sent was just "I'm at home today, no case", and if it didn't work, I sent "same as above".Over time, the number of text messages sent by Aurora has become less and less.

Knowing that Aurora was with that Li Chengzhi, Sherlock felt inexplicably upset again, not for the two of them, but for Li Chengzhi.He is probably still brooding over Li Chengzhi robbing him of the ride.

He wanted to ask her exact location, but instead of answering him, she told him that Li Chengzhi was also the eyeliner of that mysterious man.

He felt even worse.

Sherlock, who was a little irritable, decided to calm down and continue to study the properties of soil in various parts of the UK and do chemical experiments.Soon, he received a text message from Lestrade.

"223 Forest Road, Aurora is in danger, go quickly."

Sherlock didn't believe it when he first saw this text message.He is very clear about Aurora's abilities in all aspects. Since Mycroft sent him to monitor and protect him, it is impossible for her to be poor.So he began to hang his head again, concentrating on doing chemical experiments.

However, Sherlock, who never made a mistake on weekdays, kept shaking his hands and adding various wrong reagents.He felt that if this continued, the experiment would not make any substantial progress, so he put on his coat and planned to go out for a walk.

While on the road, he, who had always been concentrated and thought about many problems at the same time, was in a daze. This was probably the first time in his life.When he came back to his senses, he was already on the forest road.

He looked up at the house number: 223.

When Aurora came out of the house, Li Chengzhi was by her side.Frowning, he told what he knew of her employment with Mycroft.

Later, he followed her to the hospital.Those in the emergency room were the victim of the murder, who also appeared to be her friend.But as far as he knew, the two of them met for the first time today.But she has never been the kind of person who is full of sympathy. During so many cases, she never brought her own feelings into her. She only cared about Vivienne Washburn last time and Song Jiuhua this time. .

He sat on the bench and watched her walking up and down in front of him, circling around the door of the emergency room.He looked for the common ground between Vivienne Washburn and Song Jiuhua, and it was not difficult to find that both of them were betrayed by their families.

With that said, there's a good chance Aurora has had a similar experience.

And then, here's the case.

At the beginning, when Aurora said that she would compete with him and made a bet, he was still wondering where did she get the confidence that she would win.Still, he thought it would be fun.

It didn't take long for him to know the answer.This case was related to fairy tales, and he obviously had never read such things as fairy tales, so she wanted to take the opportunity to make a comeback.This man is quite good at seizing opportunities.

He spared some detours because he didn't realize that this was designed as a fairy tale, but he didn't admit defeat because of these small things.To arrange the crime scene like that, the murderer needs a lot of preliminary preparations, so that he can find clues.

However, to his surprise, the murderer left surprisingly few clues in these preliminary preparations.At that time, he realized that this case was not completed by an individual alone, and the murderer was probably supported by a gang.

But also because of this, he has always been a step behind Aurora, but he doesn't know it.It wasn't until the end, after he finished talking in the orphanage and figured out all the joints, that he learned from the dean's wife that Aurora had already been here.

It seemed that she had won.

Maybe he should think about it and throw his Mr. Skeleton in Mrs. Hudson's trash can when he gets home.

With her, he no longer needs Mr. Skeleton.
