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

Scattered ice cubes floated on the surface of the water because their density was lower than that of water, and gradually melted in the heated restaurant. First, the edges and corners were worn away by the temperature, and then only the small round piece in the middle remained.

Aurora stared intently at the glass of ice-water mixture in front of her, and remained silent.

She did this only because she had secrets that she didn't want him to discover.

Sherlock Holmes, the spokesperson of absolute reason and absolute science.And Aurora, as a Squib, violates materialism and the laws of physics, and is an irrational and non-scientific existence.

In fact, when she noticed that the big boss Mycroft began to doubt her identity, Aurora should give up carrying out such dangerous missions, and stay as far away from Sherlock, who can always see through everyone, as possible.

At that time, Aurora had already keenly sensed Mycroft's intention of sending her to spy on Sherlock, most likely because he wanted his brother with a high IQ to take advantage of this perfect opportunity to investigate her true origin .Otherwise, no matter how much Sherlock's younger brother likes to do things and doesn't let him worry about it, he has no reason to send an MI[-] ace agent like her to carry out such low-difficulty tasks as surveillance.

Then there is only one possible explanation, Mycroft is not sending her to spy on Sherlock, but on the contrary, let Sherlock watch her every move to figure out her mysterious past that no one knows.

That's why when Aurora was still trying to conceal Mycroft's order to her, Sherlock didn't say whether he believed her words, but took the opportunity to exchange his actions for Aurora.Only when Sherlock understands what she is doing better, can he find some clues in this person who behaves almost seamlessly.

But soon, Sherlock found that when Aurora sent him a text message to report the trend, she did not relax her vigilance against him at all, and there was no flaw in her words that he could notice, as if she had already guessed his thoughts .In order to relax Aurora's vigilance towards him, this matter was left behind.

In fact, Aurora noticed Mycroft's intentions very early, but at that time she still insisted on winning against Sherlock who always found out the truth before her.Although she knew it would be extremely dangerous to do so, her vigilance against Sherlock still lost to her own competitive spirit.So while she continued to stay by Sherlock's side, trying her best to turn defeat into victory, she kept comforting herself with seemingly reliable words.

Even if Sherlock Holmes really noticed something, it is absolutely impossible for a materialist like him to believe in the existence of the wizarding world.Even if he really found a flaw in himself, so what?He would not believe such a truth.

Aurora keeps giving herself such psychological hints, but she is still not absolutely sure that maybe Sherlock will really tear a crack from the corner of the curtain that wizards have hidden between the two worlds for thousands of years, Peek through the cracks to discover the mysteries of the wizarding world.

Later, Aurora's luck can be said to be unbelievably good, and she encountered three cases in succession related to fields that she was very familiar with but Sherlock knew little about.

Fairy tales, popular songs, Chinese language... One pile after another, the three cases piled up, making her unable to find a way out or an exit.Aurora was addicted to the joy of finally winning and getting a triple kill, and couldn't extricate herself at all.

Every time she thinks of the danger she endured when facing Sherlock, she always reminds herself secretly in her heart that after this case, she will try to get out of Sherlock's sight.Even if he has eyes like an electron microscope, he can't observe, let alone analyze.

But these cases are like a finely woven spider web, trapping her in it, making her unable to get out of the emotion that she was better than Sherlock, and even forgetting the warning to herself at the beginning, forgetting to leave Sherlock. farther away.

until a month ago.

During this time, Aurora clearly felt the changes in Sherlock.He became concerned about other people's feelings, especially her.She thought about this question again, people will change, since Sherlock can become concerned about other people's feelings, why is it impossible to accept the existence of magic?

So after a long time, Aurora finally chose to stay away and made a decision that should have been made long ago.After working under Mycroft for these years, she has become used to considering all the possibilities like a boss, and then choose the path that maximizes her benefits.However, when she really embarked on the long journey she chose, she discovered a very important thing.

She forgot to consider her emotions.

Song Jiuhua picked up a pair of chopsticks and picked up a lily flower. Her movements were impeccably elegant. She looked up at Aurora who was still in a daze, and said with a smile: "Aurora, if you don't want to eat, rice It's going to be cold."

The gloomy-looking Aurora came back to her senses, picked up her pair of chopsticks, poked a lily directly, tied it up and moved it to her lips, and unceremoniously opened her mouth and stuffed it into her mouth. Still nothing was said.

There was a gentle smile on Song Jiuhua's tender pink lips, and a pair of extremely faint dimples appeared, and he asked inadvertently, "What is it that can be ignored by Aurora, who takes it as her mission to eat delicious food all over the world?" The existence of this table of delicacies?"

While Aurora kept raising her chopsticks to pick up food and stuffed it into her mouth, she lowered her eyes to avoid Song Jiuhua's inquiring gaze on her. There was a little disappointment in her tone that could not be concealed. She said sullenly: "Jiuhua , I didn’t know it before, I like to handle cases with Sherlock so much, whether it’s helping each other to solve the case together, or making a bet and acting separately to find out the final truth.”

Aurora is used to having a Sherlock who sprays venom from time to time when handling cases. When she laughs at Inspector Lestrade's touching IQ, she just pauses a little bit habitually, waiting for Sherlock to make up the knife. There was no one around to join her in jeering at Lestrade's presumably rusty head.

Just as Sherlock is also used to handling cases, there is Aurora who can keep up with his thinking and even ahead of his progress at all times, when explaining the reason to Inspector Lestrade, he always It is a habit of only speaking half, waiting for Aurora to fill in the other half of the content, even if no one around him will continue to speak in such a tacit understanding.

"Living a life without Mr. Holmes, do you feel empty in your heart?" Although Song Jiuhua had never experienced anything similar, recalling her feelings when she was just discharged from the hospital, she expressed how Aurora felt now.

Aurora pondered for a moment, as if she didn't want to admit it, but finally she nodded slowly.

"Then why do you have to stay away from him?" Song Jiuhua picked up the porcelain cup with cloud patterns on the side, took a sip of green tea, and asked in a very gentle voice. The ending sound was not rising like ordinary interrogative sentences, but sinking downward. It seemed that Aurora's answer had been predicted in advance, and she just wanted her to say it herself.

Aurora's throat was a little dry after eating, she picked up the teacup and drank it down in a simple and rough gulp. Taking the time to do this, she thought about how to answer Song Jiuhua's question, and pretended to say casually: "At that time, I didn't know, so Sherlock is still more important to me."

Song Jiuhua pursed his lips and smiled, knowing that Aurora was too embarrassed to speak too clearly, and wanted to pretend to be indifferent.

Not only is Sherlock more important to her, it can be said to be "very".

But what qualifications does she have to say this now?After all, the person who forced Sherlock to disappear from her sight with a simple sentence was herself.

Does she regret it now?The answer was no, and Aurora knew very well that even if she did it all over again, she would still choose the same choice.Although she didn't have a good impression of wizards because of her childhood experience, she didn't want Muggles to find out the mysteries through herself.

What's more, with Sherlock's temperament, after knowing that his family is all people with special abilities, he would probably send her to the hospital for autopsy and do his favorite experiment, right?

Aurora smiled wryly, took out a paper towel from the paper box, wiped her mouth, crumpled it up, pointed it at the center of the trash can not far from her, and threw it lightly, the paper ball just landed on the trash bucket.

This action reminded her of Sherlock again. At that time, he stood by the window and bathed in the afterglow of the setting sun. The warm light reflected in his gray-blue eyes, turning into tiny shimmers.

And at that time, she was sitting on the sofa in the living room on the second floor of 221B Baker Street, where Sherlock had just sat, clearly feeling the temperature that hadn't dissipated on the sofa through a layer of light and soft fabric.Warm, but it seemed to burn her skin.She stared at Sherlock's soft eyes in the setting sun, and felt that his eyes were also warmed by the orange light.

She thought Sherlock had nice eyes.

At that time, he was standing by the window, just as she did just now, holding Mr. Skeleton in his hand, throwing a perfect arc in the air, and accurately falling into the trash can directly below the downstairs window.

"With you here, I don't need it anymore," he said.

And she responded like this: "Although I know what you said is only literal, but what you said just now is ambiguous, and it is easy to attract people's imagination, which leads to unnecessary misunderstandings."

Although her answer was serious and righteous, God knows how red her face was at that time.Before saying that, she had a few seconds to consider the possibility that Sherlock hadn't meant it literally, but she quickly dismissed it.

When he said later, "Aurora, you should have misunderstood me because I am Sherlock Holmes", her face seemed to be pressed into a pot and cooked, as if it was overcooked.

In the end, Sherlock's words showed that he had misunderstood the meaning of "misunderstanding", and Aurora breathed a sigh of relief, but at the same time, she couldn't help but feel a little lost that she didn't even notice.

It turned out that it started at that time.
