Sherlock Holmes' Neighborhood 221C

Chapter 63 The North Pole

Location, Greenland, ice sheet.

Unlike the snow and ice she imagined, this place is like a wasteland, the temperature is very cold, and the ground is frozen hard.I had already worn enough cold-proof clothes before I came here, but the air-conditioning was still blowing up from the soles of my feet.

Wu Zhen stomped his feet and moved his body to stomp away the air-conditioning.She was inexplicably happy to be frozen by the air-conditioning here. She likes the low temperature very much, and she feels good when it rains. Most people don't like rainy days, so she didn't tell anyone about it.

Sherlock seemed to be obsessed with his black slim-fitting windbreaker. He wore cold-proof clothes inside and a large black windbreaker on the outside.

"He was 13 minutes late."

"He" refers to their arctic guide Daniel, who was only seen in the photo—in 221B, Sherlock suddenly said that he would take her on a tour, and then gave her a photo of the tour guide.

——But he didn't say that the tourist destination was Greenland in the Arctic.

When Wu Zhen knew the destination, his scalp would explode.

It’s still here, a person can come to the North Pole several times in his life, even the Arctic border, Greenland, which is known as a paradise.She has always had an adventurous spirit.

Here is a desolate land, only a handful of people live in villages in Greenland.

"There are polar bears here, you are unlucky to meet them. Hahahaha. Don't worry, I have a gun!"

Daniel is their tour guide. His face is very white, his smile is deep and deep, and he is dry and hard. He is only in his early thirties and is in his prime.His eyes were sharp, but he was defenseless.Carrying a well-maintained gun on his back, it shows that he is an excellent hunter.

Wu Zhen remembered reading in a certain magazine that quota hunting was allowed in Greenland.When a polar bear attacks actively, the hunter is allowed to shoot in self-defense.

After being late for 24 minutes, Daniel arrived late in a broken car with all internal organs.When the three of them got into the car, their body temperature rose a little bit, and the three of them introduced themselves.

"It's really rare for the two of you to travel together." Daniel said: "In the past, photographers came here in groups, taking pictures of polar bears and plants in the Arctic."

The vehicle takes a long time to warm up.They have been talking.The interest was not very high, and after Sherlock analyzed the information he wanted from the conversation, he ignored Daniel's answer.

Having stayed up late last night, Wu Zhen sat in the car, his body was warmer and there was no cold wind blowing.She soon felt drowsy and her eyelids twitched.

......

She heard Sherlock's deep bass in the haze. "You can lend us your hounds, just three."

The corners of Daniel's eyes frowned, and he said bluntly, "Of course, don't say three, ten are fine. I'm not exaggerating. The average hunter doesn't have as many dogs as I have. How do you know?" He laughed loudly. Get up and howl like a bear at the top of your laughter.

Sherlock said succinctly, "Guess."

"amazing!"

Wu Zhen heard the conversation in a half-dream and half-awake state, and vaguely felt a smile spreading in his heart.

"Hunting! Let my blood boil, every man loves hunting, do you love hunting!"

"Yes, I especially love extremely dangerous and cunning prey. They are like giant poisons lurking in the dark, secretly stretching out their sharp poisonous claws..." Sherlock said in a brisk tone: "Hunting them Pleasant, isn't it?"

"Hey, yes!" Anthony felt that there was something wrong with the customer he picked up this time, but he was not the only one who chose to come to Greenland in the Arctic in autumn.What he meant was that Greenland is beautiful, but also very harsh. After autumn, the cold of the Arctic is enough to freeze anyone who is unprepared.

Boom, boom, boom, boom——

The car drove slowly, making the sound of falling apart.Most of the road is bumpy.There are often some stones on the road, and fluffy white balls flash by.

Daniel accelerated without any mental barriers.

"Those cunning rabbits are so fast, I've never seen a car hit them."

"It's a rough road, sir. Occasionally bumps into wild animals."

It doesn't matter if you don't meet the beast, the main reason is that the road is too bumpy.Wu Zhen was so shaken that he didn't feel sleepy at all, and he didn't eat much in his stomach, so he felt fine.Wu Zhen felt that the blood on his face had faded a little.

There are lichens and arctic plants outside the car window. The bright yellow leaves lie on the ground about ten centimeters. If you look carefully, there are clusters of snow-white hiding behind the black stones.

"Arctic rabbit?"

I don't know how long I've been driving, Wu Zhen looked down at the phone, more than 40 minutes passed, the surrounding scenery didn't change much, in the wilderness, killing people and stealing goods is fine.

It can be disguised as a wild animal attack, she thought while scratching the car window.

Wu Zhen was wearing a down jacket, with a fur collar around her neck, covering her entire chin, and a plush hat. She could only see a pair of obsidian-like eyes embedded in her snow-white face, calm and thoughtful.

Or sinking into a glacier, the temperature here is like an ice cellar. After a person drowns, his mouth and nose are filled with ice water, which freezes into a big ice lump, and it is difficult to float up. There are still fish below...

Daniel turned the steering wheel. "Do you need me to prepare fishing tackle for you? This is the famous place where cod is produced, and the meat is very tender."

Sherlock agreed: "Okay, it's negotiated in the contract, we need a place to live, just the two of us."

Wu Zhen looked at Sherlock abruptly, with an inexplicable gleam in his eyes.What do you want, Sherlock?

The words were not asked.

"There are beasts here, I'm not joking." Daniel was a little embarrassed. "I have to keep you safe, and that's what the contract says."

"So, I borrowed three fierce hounds from you. Your hounds won't let me down, will they?"

Daniel's anger sank to his dantian. "certainly!"

Daniel turned the car into the village, and a group of houses looked like houses. Looking closely, they were assembled huts. It seemed that they could be disassembled and taken away. They are nomadic people in the Arctic.

A few children were watching them get out of the car from the windows of the house.

Daniel yelled at them, he was wearing heavy clothes, his arms could not be raised too high, and he waved at the group of children like a bear.

The children squeaked and laughed together, shyly hiding behind the window.

It is not backward here, with modern furniture and electricity, because there is a generator, approved by the above.

Anthony took out the key and opened the door of a blue house, and he handed the key to Sherlock.The furniture inside the door is very simple, the bed is very big, it is a common bed.

"They're all houses like this. It's rare for the two of you to come here."

After Daniel left, Sherlock sat on the sofa, took out the computer from his backpack and placed it on his lap.Click on the video.Wu Zhen leaned over and took a look, and didn't think it was strange.

——221B indoor real-time video.

Ha ha.

Her boyfriend is so perverted that he even monitors his own house when he leaves the house.

In the video, the interior door was pushed open.It was Lestrade who entered, followed by Mrs Hudson, her hands dusted with flour.

Sherlock stroked his chin. "She's making cookies again - but we're not here, so guess who she's making them for."

"Hmm, new boyfriend?" Wu Zhen opened the suitcase and squatted in front of him to check if the luggage was scattered.

"Oh." Sherlock laughed: "You are right. I found something was wrong before I went out."

Wu Zhen asked curiously: "The bakery owner, how did her ex-boyfriend manage to step on several boats?"

Sherlock shrugged: "It's very simple, but I don't understand why he has so many girlfriends, one is enough." Sherlock Holmes, a patient with social dysphoria, said.

Wu Zhen heard another meaning and was very satisfied.

Sherlock gently closed the computer and said, "I don't seem to have told you about Louis yet."

"I know, he's a... vampire."

"I think vampires are just a disease. I saw him ten years ago, and he hasn't changed at all since he is now. He has become more withdrawn. When he jumped from the fourth floor in front of me, he was unharmed. When I was a child, I really wanted to understand what was going on with the disease 'vampire'."

Do vampires like to go off the beaten track?Hobby is going downstairs without taking the stairs and jumping directly?When she was tied up, so was Lestat.

"I do think that vampires are a real kind of...monster who live forever and never grow old."

Sherlock's eyes instantly lit up with an unyielding light: "Please talk about science, Ms. Wu"
