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

Mycroft easily came to the conclusion that Aurora was the younger sister of Director Hopps and also belonged to that world, but she was different from other so-called wizards.

Facts have proved that his conjecture was correct. Hearing what Mycroft said, Aubrey curled his lips in disdain, and said, "So it was just accidentally involved? But I heard that Mr. Holmes personally I don’t know why it suddenly became accidentally involved when it was assigned to Sister Sister?”

Mycroft saw that Aubrey would not let it go if he didn't give a proper explanation today, so he evaded the seriousness and replied lightly: "It seems that Director Hopps is here to ask the teacher for his crimes. This is indeed my negligence. Director Hopps can blame me for putting Lingmei in danger. It’s just that I haven’t seen Lingmei for a few days, and I don’t know if she has recovered from her injuries or is she still healthy?”

"I don't dare to ask the teacher for a crime. My sister is fine and can't die." Aubrey's attitude suddenly became cold, and his face became tense.

"It's just that Lingmei is not the only one who is in danger. Sherlock, who is not talented, also performed missions with Aurora." Mycroft responded with only one simple sentence.

The implication is very obvious: first of all, not only did I send your sister to carry out the task, but also my brother, so you don't have to be mentally unbalanced.Secondly, when the two of them were in danger at the same time, Sherlock didn't think about asking Aurora to go by herself, but your sister insisted on covering for my brother, so she was seriously injured, all of which cannot be blamed on me on the head.

"Since Brother Ling is mentioned, may I ask Mr. Holmes, what are your plans for the matter between them?" Aubrey also knew that Mycroft was not to blame for this matter, and his sister was also responsible. Yes, so I accepted it as soon as it was good, and turned the topic to the key point.

In the past, Mycroft must have felt that Aurora would bring potential risks to Sherlock's special profession, and would definitely strongly oppose it.But now it turns out that not only will Aurora not bring risks to Sherlock, she even chooses to cover him and sacrifice herself at a critical moment.And since Aurora is closely related to people with special abilities, maybe she can use this ability to protect Sherlock in the future.

More importantly, during this period of time, Aurora's life and death were uncertain, and Sherlock was bored with solving the case and finding out the truth, which he was always most interested in.Don't talk about occupational risks, even the occupation is almost gone, so what risk are you talking about?

Hearing that Aubrey was begging for an explanation for his sister, Mycroft immediately said: "It will be Christmas in a few days, and it just so happened that my mother asked me and Sherlock to go home for the holiday, and I will ask him to bring a Aurora's."

In fact, Sherlock hadn't agreed to go home for the holidays. Mycroft persuaded him for a long time, but he refused to agree to death, and the matter has been dragged on until now.But now that it was clear that Aurora was in good health, Mycroft felt a little more certain in his heart, thinking that he would be able to abduct his disobedient brother into his home for Christmas.

Aubrey was silent for a moment, then nodded slightly, obviously agreeing to the proposal, and finally left a sentence: "If someone treats Lola badly, I will naturally use my actions to prove that we are not easy to bully."

He never took a sip of the coffee that Mycroft poured him, stood up slowly, nodded slightly, and said, "Thank you Mr. Holmes for your hospitality, I have other duties at the Ministry of Magic, forgive me Goodbye, please give my regards to the Prime Minister."

Seeing this, Mycroft also stood up from the chair, stretched out his hand to shake hands with Aubrey, and assured him, "Don't worry, Director Hopps, with me here, no one would dare to treat Aurora badly." .Please send my regards to Minister Granger, too."

Seeing that he had said that, Aubrey shook hands with Mycroft with dignity, then turned and walked towards the fireplace in the office that hadn't been used for many years.

Mycroft watched Aubrey disappear by the fireplace, then arranged a car and headed directly towards Baker Street.

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

After Mycroft arrived at Baker Street, he guessed that Sherlock should not be in 221B at this time, and walked to the door next door with ease.Sure enough, after going up the stairs, I heard the voices of two people talking in the living room. The cold and deep one was Sherlock, and the other one with a relaxed and bright tone and a cadence was undoubtedly Aurora.

Just when Mycroft was hesitating whether to go in now, he heard Sherlock say to Aurora inside: "Mycroft has always regarded you as his confidant and favorite general, as expected, you have not been back since 10 He arrived in a few minutes, and this must be attributed to the people he sent to watch on this street."

In fact, Aurora also heard the sound of someone going upstairs, but she was not sure who it was. After hearing what Sherlock said, she quickly stood up and moved to the door of the living room to open the door for the big boss.You must know that she is not afraid of anything, but the big boss.

Mycroft walked in holding a black umbrella, smiling a little smugly, and couldn't help but lighten his tone: "It's been a long time since you made a mistake in your reasoning, unlike when you were a child, you often had the opportunity to criticize and correct."

Before Sherlock opened his mouth to retort, Mycroft turned to Aurora calmly and continued, "Just now your brother used the excuse of work to find me."

Aurora saw that Mycroft didn't look surprised to see her, and already felt that something was wrong. Obviously, she knew about her situation a long time ago, and when she heard him mention Aubrey, she suddenly realized what was going on. what happened.

No matter how much Aubrey cared about himself, as the head of the First Division, he would not rashly confess his identity to a Muggle he had never met.So if he wants to have a chance to talk to Mycroft, he can only use the pretext of work, as the Department of Magical Accidents and Disasters, to meet this "small British government clerk", which is indeed very similar to what he would do things.

But if this is the case, then even Lestrade's IQ can guess her identity, let alone Mycroft?And as an elder brother, he will definitely tell Sherlock this "shocking secret".So in the final analysis, Sherlock will still know his own details in the end, and he will certainly know why he was seriously injured but now he is safe and sound.

What Sherlock said just now, "You don't need to tell me, I will know sooner or later", will be fulfilled so soon.And in this way, the first condition that Aurora just raised is useless, which is equivalent to wasting a precious opportunity in vain.

Aurora is so angry, now she wants to take back what she just said, is it too late to press the undo button?However, the answer is probably in the negative. Specifically, "messages sent for more than 2 minutes cannot be withdrawn."

Sherlock naturally understood this too, so he looked at the depressed Aurora and squeezed out a big, triumphant smile.

Of course, Mycroft had a plan to explain to Sherlock, but he didn't intend to explain in front of Aurora, so he planned to explain to her why he came, and said: "Aurora, in a few days It's Christmas, and Sherlock will be home with me for the holidays..."

Before he finished speaking, Sherlock was the first to not cooperate, with an impatient look on his face, he interrupted and retorted first: "If my memory is not wrong, I should not have promised you this matter."

Mycroft immediately changed what he said last time, and no longer tried hard to persuade Sherlock to go home, but looked indifferent, raised his eyebrows, and said: "It doesn't matter whether you go or not, I am now It's none of your business to invite Aurora to spend Christmas with us."

Sherlock hesitated for a long time, as if he was deciding whether it would be scarier to go home for Christmas and be nagged by his parents all day, unable to do anything, or take Aurora home for Christmas and introduce her to himself. Parents are even more attractive. After several comparisons, he still resignedly uttered two words: "I'll go."

After hearing this, Aurora complained secretly in her heart. If she hadn't heard the context, she must have thought that Sherlock was about to start swearing.

After that, Mycroft and Sherlock completely ignored Aurora's personal opinions, and got together to discuss the itinerary and arrangements for the day. The discussions were heated, and they argued a few words from time to time. When the disputes got serious, they began to mock each other.

Aurora realized that she hadn't expressed her opinion on the invitation yet, and the two Holmes brothers regarded themselves as acquiescing. They were speechless for a while, but they interrupted them: "Mr. Holmes..."

Mycroft glanced back at Aurora, and said in a long tone: "Although I'm not sure whether I will have other identities besides the boss for you in the future. But if there is, I will Thought Mycroft seemed more like what you'd call me."

Aurora couldn't help but continue to complain silently in her heart. If it was Lestrade, she probably wouldn't understand the twists and turns. The purpose of Mycroft's words was actually to let her call him directly. There is no need to call out your name so politely, Mr. Holmes on the left and Mr. Holmes on the right, a simple sentence must be so complicated.

I think that when Sherlock proposed that Aurora could call him by his Christian name, he also adopted the same very roundabout way as his brother. Aolora asked at that time, "However, Holmes, do you really care about Mr. Holmes' leaving the country?" Don't you know anything?" Sherlock didn't answer and asked "Don't you think it's a mouthful?"

The reason why it is a mouthful is because "Sherlock Holmes" appears twice in a short sentence. If you want to make it not a mouthful, you must delete one, that is to say, you need to change the name of a person.And Aurora was Mycroft's subordinate, so it was naturally inconvenient to call him by his name directly.

Then, there is only one choice left, which is to change his address from "Sherlock Holmes" to "Sherlock".

In a way, the two brothers are really alike.
