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

If Aurora hadn't pierced the window paper, Sherlock would probably never have said it, and would never have alienated her.He would have a complicated mood. On the one hand, he felt that this would affect his absolutely rational mind, and on the other hand, he didn't want to lose Aurora, his hard-won "opponent".

It didn't work out as expected, he didn't know what kind of thoughts Aurora was holding, which revealed his somewhat disordered heartbeat at that time.But no matter what she thinks, he is still forced to face up to this problem that he has been subconsciously trying to avoid.

Should I alienate Aurora from now on, keep myself in a state of sobriety at all times, keep no personal emotions involved, and grow old with my work, or...

Or what, he didn't think about it.

Having this choice is enough for him.

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

After running away from home, Aurora returned to Hopes Manor for the second time, and it was the only time she came back on her own initiative.

At this time, Aubrey was still working at the Ministry of Magic, and there were only busy house elves in the manor.When one of them passed by her, he glanced at her with surprised eyes, and walked straight past her without stopping for a moment.

Aurora's face is full of black lines. Since she was expelled from the family and ran away from home, her status has plummeted. Even the house elves don't regard her as their master. They walk in front of her and pretend not to see her. her look.It's not that she looks down on house elves, it's just that even this kind of creature, which starts screaming at the sky and smashing walls and floors at every turn, dares to bully her, it really makes her... a little annoyed.

Thinking of this, Aurora couldn't help calling out to the unknown house elf, and in a very unfriendly way: "Your eyes, which are as big as two light bulbs, have grown white?" ?”

The house elf obviously didn't expect Aurora to be so arrogant. He was taken aback for a moment, and his footsteps stopped because of this. After a while, he turned his head, stared at Aurora with two big eyes, and said in a voice that could no longer be calm: "It turns out that the young lady knew about coming back, and Xianchen thought that the young lady had already forgotten the way home."

The house elf felt that Aurora was arrogant, but Aurora felt that this house elf was even more arrogant, and dared to talk to her own lady like that, even though she was a lady who was expelled from the family.

She remembered this house elf named "Xianchen". It was her mother's favorite house elf before she was alive, and even the name was given by her mother.The mother's name, Su Liushuang, was taken from a sentence in "Spring River Flower and Moon Night" by Zhang Ruoxu, a poet of the Tang Dynasty in China, "you can't feel the frost in the sky, and you can't see the white sand on the ground." The slender dust, the lonely moon in the bright sky."Aurora remembered that when she was young, she laughed at Xianchen because of its offensive name.

So this is, do you hold a grudge?

She even dared to remember her grudges, and when Aubrey came back from the Ministry of Magic, he must persuade him to rectify his family traditions.

"How could it be?" Aurora has never had a good impression of this house elf who bullied her. She curled her lips, and a smirk appeared on the corner of her mouth, and she suddenly burst into anger, "I'm sorry for the house elf who came home. The memory of Lu, just like the extremely stupid name Xianchen, has a deep impression and is still fresh in his memory."

Xianchen immediately exploded, her shrill voice was trembling, and her big eyes were covered with mist, as if she would cry in the next second: "You! How dare you? This is the name chosen by the hostess herself ! You... you..."

It seemed to want to say something more, but because Aurora's unclear identity was still there, it didn't continue to scold after all.

"Is this how your mother disciplined you? Swearing at the young lady at home?" Aurora raised her chin slightly, her gaze straight down, looking down at the short Xianchen, with a bit of disdain and contempt in her eyes.

Xianchen is not sensitive to being belittled. To be precise, all house-elves are not sensitive to such things. After all, with their status, they will often be scolded.But the former hostess Su Liushuang is probably Xianchen's bottom line. You can say anything bad about it, but as soon as Su Liushuang is mentioned, you will fight back like crazy, no matter who the opponent is, how bad it will be for your situation.

"You are not the young lady of our Hopes family at all! Why can't Xianchen say you?" Xianchen was so angry that he almost pointed at Aurora's nose and scolded. After all, it couldn't reach her nose.

Just as Aurora was about to speak back, she saw Xianchen flying up into the air, stopping in mid-air, unable to move up and down, her eyes wide open, the originally big eyes were now even more terrifyingly big, filled with panic.

Only then did Aurora belatedly see Aubrey standing at the door. He had just returned from Apparation, and the first thing he usually did when he entered the house was to cast the "clean up" spell. Do it, it feels a little dusty.Holding the family cane in his left hand, he drew out his own wand from it with his right hand, and pointed it at Xianchen who spoke rudely, with a serious expression on his face.

It was seriousness that Aurora had never seen before, and she was keenly aware that something was wrong.

"What are you talking about?" Aubrey gave Xianchen a hard look, and his tone was relatively calm, giving off a feeling of calmness and prestige.

Received the master's stare, Xianchen trembled with fright, and reflexively wanted to say "it's Xianchen's fault" while hitting the floor or the wall.But now it is stagnated in the air by Aubrey's spell, it can neither reach the floor below nor the wall next to it, so a new collision method was invented - bumping into the air.

"If you hadn't made any mistakes in serving your mother, and she was quite fond of you, I would definitely throw you a piece of clothing and drive you out of Hopes Manor." Aubrey pursed his lips tightly. , although nothing could be seen from the impeccable expression, but Aurora could tell that he was angry, very, very angry.

Only politicians like Aubrey or the big boss Mycroft can successfully hide their emotions even when they are furious.

"No! Master, don't chase Xianchen away. Xianchen doesn't want clothes! Master, master, Xianchen grew up in the Hopes family since he was a child, and has experienced three generations of family owners. Apart from Hopes Manor, Xianchen has nowhere to go!" Xianchen said Obviously frightened by Aubrey's words, he choked up and screamed, hot tears welled up in his eyes, and fell to the floor.

"You stained the floor." Aubrey looked at the tears dripping on the wooden floor, and did not hide the disgusted expression on his face. His voice was like the weather before the storm, so depressing that people could not breathe. It seems that it will explode in the next second.

Hearing this, Xianchen tremblingly looked at Aubrey's expression at this time, and then looked away, not daring to look at his terrifying expression anymore, and immediately forced back the tears that were streaming down his face, hiccupping.

"You can go to Hogwarts to work, and you can still receive wages there. The treatment is better than here. We can't afford a house-elf with a 'personality' like you." Aubrey continued to add insults to Xianchen , stimulating it.

Xianchen wiped away her tears, not daring to cry anymore, shaking her head mechanically.

"Apologies to Miss Aurora Hope." Aurora originally thought that Aubrey would emphasize the word "Miss" in response to Xianchen's previous words, but he didn't. "S" is accentuated.

Xianchen covered his face, curled up in mid-air, and kept apologizing: "Xianchen made a mistake, I'm sorry, miss, please forgive me, it's Xianchen who made a mistake..."

Aurora waved her hand impatiently, indicating that the matter was over.

"Since Lola has forgiven you, I won't say anything. Don't let me hear you say such things again, or I will definitely add a dress to you as I said." Aubrey will Xianchen, who was still hiccupping, put it down and put away his wand, his eyes filled with warnings to it.

After Xianchen was put down, she tremblingly bent over and bowed to the siblings, obediently responding.

"Let's go, don't be an eyesore here." Aubrey withdrew his gaze and said lightly.

When Xianchen heard these words, he scrambled away like a released fugitive, and ran towards the kitchen.

Aurora stared at Xianchen's receding figure, full of doubts in her heart.Based on what she knew about Aubrey, no matter how protective he was, no matter how much he disliked other people's negative comments about him, it was impossible for him to lose his composure like this.She could see how annoyed he was, even though he was hiding it well.This is not something that Aubrey, who is always calm, will do.

Listening to the conversation between Aubrey and Xianchen, she still found some clues. Compared with being scolded for disrespecting the master, it was more like being punished for saying the wrong thing.

Say the wrong thing?Is it Xianchen's belittling of herself, or the phrase "You are not a lady of our Hopes family at all"?From a certain point of view, Aurora is indeed no longer a member of the Hopes family, after all, she has been removed from the family tree.

But is it really that simple?

Aubrey's behavior was very strange: as a clean freak, he went directly to teach Xianchen a lesson before he had time to "clean up" himself, his emotions were too exaggerated, and his eyes were also warning with unknown meaning.And the most important point, he emphasized "Miss", but "Hopps".

"You are not Miss Hopps at all!" What does this sentence mean?

Xianchen said that he grew up in Hopes Manor and has been serving here, and has experienced the replacement of the owner for three times.Will it know some hidden secrets that no one knows?

If so, did Aubrey know about it?Why doesn't he want to let himself know?What was he hiding from her?
