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

Ever since Mycroft pushed open the door, Sherlock, who heard the movement, knew that he must be looking for him. He didn't even give his brother who was sitting next to him a look, and continued to read with his eyes lowered at the same reading speed.After a long time, two words came out of her tightly pursed lips: "Curiosity."

Sherlock didn't say so, but Mycroft saw what he meant.

Curious, what is the charm of these books that Aurora liked to read before?

When Mycroft went to look for Sherlock at 221B next door, Mrs. Hudson casually mentioned that he has been shutting himself out these days and actually stayed at home watching TV dramas.Probably TV series like "Criminal Minds" and "Don't Lie to Me". Why is the IQ lower than the average IQ of Scotland Yard", but he persisted in watching.

Although Mycroft is the boss, he hasn't figured out what Aurora's suspicious identity is until now, and he still can't figure out the details. Naturally, he will send his subordinates to investigate.Later, Aurora got involved with the younger brother he had always valued, so he sent people to investigate more.

Aurora likes to stay in bed, she can't drink too badly, she can get drunk after taking a sip of wine, and she also likes to stay at home and watch TV series, especially those related to her profession like "Criminal Minds" and "Lie to Me" There is a TV series related to it, and I still watch it with gusto.

These, Mycroft had investigated early in the morning.

Sherlock wanted to try to get to know Aurora better, and Mycroft had no qualms about that.

"Christmas is still a week away, what are your plans?" Mycroft didn't want to discuss Aurora's problem with him, otherwise Sherlock would be angry again, so he went straight to today to find His topic.

"Of course it's the same as in previous years." Sherlock continued to maintain the speed of ten seconds per page, while reading Tagore's poetry collection, while distractedly answering Mycroft's question.

The meaning is the same as in previous years, which is to invite a few people to the house and give each other Christmas gifts, which is extremely boring.By the way, regular customers who come to Baker Street to give gifts on Christmas Eve include Sherlock, who is often half-dead by Sherlock's anger, and Jasmine Amber, a female forensic doctor who wholeheartedly admires Sherlock.

"You don't come home very much, mother misses you very much." As a "small employee of the British government", Mycroft is used to only half-spoken, "You don't come home very much, mother misses you very much" The subtext is "Mother Wants you to come home for Christmas."

"It's as if you often go home. You are the one mother misses." In a blink of an eye, Sherlock had finished reading the "Flying Birds" in his hand, and threw it to the last book in the stack of books on the sofa next to him. Above, finally looked up at Mycroft.

"To go, or not to go?" Mycroft stared into Sherlock's gray-blue eyes and asked word by word.

"No." Sherlock completely disregarded Mycroft's coercion and lure, and categorically rejected this seemingly insignificant proposal, and replied sparingly, picked up another literary classic and began to flip through it. Look, it took a while before he asked in confusion, "You obviously don't like going home for Christmas, so why force me?"

In the beginning, the old Sherlock Holmes couple would call their two sons home every Christmas, which was so boring that it could be called a nightmare.Mycroft and Sherlock quarreled and the two brothers rarely agreed on one thing, that is, "there should be no such thing as Christmas in this world", and gradually they stopped.

Mycroft also didn't want to go home for Christmas. In the past, the old Holmes and his wife kept calling out that they missed the two of them and asked them to go home. He didn't pay much attention to it. He needs urgent attention.It doesn't make sense. As soon as Mrs. Holmes said that she missed her son this time, he immediately agreed, and even helped to persuade Sherlock to go back.

Sherlock couldn't understand it, and didn't know what Mycroft was thinking. It was suspicious, really suspicious.

Mycroft sighed softly, and put on a look of "If it weren't for you, how could I agree to my mother", and suddenly felt that I was really worried about this uneasy brother, and replied: "Since O After Lola's accident at the Hamilton's dance, you're getting less and less sparkly."

Sherlock has been lonely since he was a child, and he is not good at communicating with other people.Otherwise, with his financial resources, there is no need to rent a house on Baker Street. It's just that Mycroft wants him to know a few more people, which is better than being alone at home with no one to talk to.

Originally, there were not many people who could talk to Sherlock, Lestrade was one, Mrs. Hudson was one, and forensic doctor Jasmine who was devoted to him, and of course Aurora.Originally, everything was going in a good direction, but since Aurora disappeared for no reason and her life and death were unknown, Sherlock cut off contact with everyone and stayed at home alone, not going anywhere.Normally, only Mrs. Hudson would talk to him sometimes, and he didn't pay much attention to it.

Mycroft was very worried about Sherlock's current situation, and just as Christmas was approaching recently, he came up with such a solution.Even if you don't talk to others, it's good to be nagged by the old people in the family.So when old Mrs. Holmes proposed to let the two of them go home a week before Christmas as usual, Mycroft, as a fairly competent brother, agreed with the spirit of self-sacrifice and promised to delay. Go with Sherlock.

It has been a long time since Sherlock heard the sensitive word "Aurora" mentioned by the people around him, so he snorted coldly and said nothing.

"You're blaming me." Mycroft looked at Sherlock's indifferent look, understood what it meant, and concluded.

"No." Sherlock denied, but very soullessly.

"You're blaming me, blaming me for forcing you to make a choice." Mycroft said that when Aurora poked Sherlock's mind face to face, he asked Sherlock to choose between work, faith and people. Old things.

Sherlock didn't say anything this time, Mycroft knew his brother well, and no rebuttal usually meant acquiescence.

"But don't you remember, I forced you to make a choice, but I didn't make it for you." Mycroft said calmly, implying that no matter what, it was Sherlock What he chose had nothing to do with him, and Sherlock could only blame himself.

Sherlock remained silent, not knowing whether he didn't want to say something or had nothing to say.

Mycroft was silent for a moment, picked up the black umbrella on the small coffee table, left a sentence for Sherlock, "I advise you to find a co-tenant, it will be beneficial to you", turned and left.

It's the same sentence, Sherlock is not short of money, and of course finding a co-tenant is not to share the rent.

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

After two weeks of study, Aubrey scheduled his first formal audition exam.

At this time, the examinee Aurora was standing opposite the examiner Aubrey, with an unprecedentedly serious expression.The examiner cleared his throat and emphasized again and again: "Today is the first review exam. Of course, I don't expect you to beat me the first time. It's just a try. There is only one rule, and that is to beat me."

Candidate Aurora did not have the miserable look of the students in the examination room at all, but looked directly at Aubrey opposite, without any fear, and her eyes were full of firmness, the kind of person who believed that she would definitely Win firmly.

The two brothers and sisters stood facing each other. According to the duel rules, they first bowed to each other at ninety degrees, then raised their wands and pointed straight ahead like sharp swords. When they silently counted to the third number at the same time, they began to attack. .

"Bones to pieces!" Aurora took the lead, pointed the tip of her wand at Aubrey, and shouted.

Aubrey also easily deflected Aurora's first attack, and responded with an eye sickness spell.Aurora blocked the spell with an "armor bodyguard" in time, and then the two took turns attacking for another seven or eight rounds, but they never hit hard.

Finally, it was Aurora who couldn't hold back anymore, and quickly raised her wand and pointed it at the crystal chandelier in the living room above Aubrey's head, shouting, "Torn apart!"

The crystal chandelier, which seemed to be of great value, just broke into several pieces and hit Aubrey. The prodigal Aurora felt a little distressed. Of course, it was not her brother who felt distressed, but the crystal chandelier.

Aubrey dodged in a hurry and had no time to cast a spell on Aurora, which allowed her to seize the opportunity again and cast three spells in a row, pointing directly at Aubrey.

Aubrey was cornered for a moment, unable to fight back, he used a Transfiguration spell casually, turning the fragment of the dropped chandelier into a Boggart.

Originally, the chandelier fell down, and there was no light source in the living room, only the fireplace still emitted some light and heat. As soon as Boggart came out, Aurora felt the darkness in front of her eyes.She only felt that there was no light in the dim living room, and the surrounding gradually became noisy, mixed with various sounds, but she couldn't hear clearly.

In an instant, a little flame sprang up, tore through the lifeless darkness, and slowly spread into a sea of ​​flames, burning to the end of the field of vision.Fire, sometimes it is hope, sometimes it can bring despair.And Aurora didn't know why at the moment, and felt deep despair in her heart.

Gradually, the noisy voice became clearer.A man shouted and cast a spell, his tone was exactly the same as that of Aurora who just chanted the spell.Next to him was a woman, most likely his wife, screaming in despair.Not long after, the baby's cry also appeared. Although the cry was very weak, it was continuous and endless, and it hurt Aurora's ears.

Aurora knew very well that this was a nightmare she hadn't seen for a long time.

The author has something to say:
