"I heard from Mycroft that Mr. Sylvester is looking for a fiancé for his sister." His voice was a little unnatural. "I know she has a relationship with Mr. Lancaster Davis. I just I wonder if Mr. Sylvester has any intentions in the end..."

Cecily couldn't tell whether the sudden emotion in her heart was happiness—this feeling that although you refuse to marry me, I know you still care about me.

But it was quickly overshadowed by other emotions.

Perhaps he meant that he would be less embarrassed if "Cicily" married someone else.

She has considered the relationship between Larry and Cecily for a long time, and she thinks it is most appropriate to have a certain amount of concern but not too close, because Larry and Cecily are not close in blood, and there is no such strict rule that close relatives cannot marry in this era In order to avoid developing in another direction, this is the most appropriate.

The main reason is that Larry and Cecily will inevitably appear at the same time if it develops in another direction, which is difficult to deal with.

"I'm not sure about the relationship between Cecily and the Mr. Davis you mentioned," Cecily was a little puzzled, "but if the Lancaster Davis you mentioned is from the Davis family that your brother mentioned yesterday Heir, I don't think Leslie would allow an engagement. Your brother has a lot of influence on Leslie."

Holmes seemed to breathe a sigh of relief: "Although other things have happened, I still hope that she will marry a good man."

Cecily smiled, noncommittal.

She was not in the mood to do the experiment again, and she had to visit another family in the next few days. Cecily oscillated the test tube on her hand, but still had no results, so she simply gave up.

"Then let's stop here today." This was the first time Holmes offered to leave, and he would usually be exhausted until Cecily had to leave. "Schools are about to start, so see you at that time?"

Cecily nodded, as if she suddenly remembered something: "But I think, if it was you, you might secretly make the result behind my back."

"Ha!" said Holmes with a short laugh. "Do you take me for a snail girl...a snail boy?"

Cecily was very surprised: "I never thought that Sherlock Holmes would read fairy tales... I think you can do it."

"Come on, you are the best."

With a straight face, she popped out word by word, with a serious tone, but her words seemed immature, coupled with her expressionless face, it made people feel... very funny.

That's right, an indifferent compliment.

Although Cecily is not indifferent at all, she is even quite unrestrained.

Holmes hung his white coat behind the door and put on his overcoat: "Don't expect too much. I will do a few more sets at most. I have a hunch that it may take several years to find a suitable reagent for this experiment."

"So your hunch is also the guiding ideology after the accumulation of knowledge?"

Holmes took Cecily's hat from the hook behind the door and threw it to her. Cecily almost missed the hat and he laughed again.

Cecily was happy again, and the cold air was full of happy molecules.She didn't seem to have any friends before, and she seemed to think it was okay, but at this time, even if he smiled, he felt the tacit understanding between friends.

No wonder everyone wants a friend.

This feeling is really good.

"Sylvester."

Before the two waved goodbye, Holmes suddenly stopped Cecily.

At this time, Cecily was able to turn around naturally, instead of seeing him as an idol and watching him leave.

When she turned her head, she could see that the whole street was his background, and he stood in the most beautiful position of the composition, as if the world existed for him—the sound of horseshoes, the sound of the coachman's whip in the air, the old The street lamps and the wooden doors of the opened shops - these are all just his foil.

"You seem to have talked a lot recently."

He said with a smile.

It was only then that Cecily realized that she had fallen into disrepair. She felt a little embarrassed, but she couldn't see it on the surface, so she simply complied with her setting of "a person who doesn't talk too much". After taking off her hat and saluting, she left neatly .

When I got home, I just met Lancaster Davis going out from their house, and Leslie saw him off behind.

Cecily subconsciously hid in the corner and did not make a sound, and did not return home until the Davis family's carriage left.

Leslie's expression didn't look very good, but when he saw his sister, he still let go of his guard and touched her fake hair.

"Your hair, should you get a new one?" Leslie teased, "It's also a problem that your hair doesn't grow long, and for a British man, your hair is too thick."

Cecily: ...

"Brother, your hair is quite thick too."

Leslie touched his hairline. At his age, many people's hairlines were already at the top. Looking at it from the front, it was rounded to a bald head, but he was fine.

"Our family's genes are still good, but why don't you change your hairstyle?" Leslie looked at Cecily's broken hair thoughtfully. "The real hair is pressed underneath, so it's still too thick."

"Brother, why are you suddenly entangled with my hairstyle..." Cecily was a little confused, but after thinking about it, she found it made sense, "Then can you help me find a new one?"

"Let's just let Larry do it. If I go buy a wig, tomorrow high society will be full of rumors about my hair." Leslie said with a smile, "I'll get you a new one before school starts." of."

>>>>>>>>

Time is always like this. When you are trying new things every day, you will be full every day, but if you suddenly relax, time will become faster, and the memories seem to be lacklustre.

Cecily thought so.

The time with Holmes is always very fast and very slow.

It was so fast that it passed in the blink of an eye, so slow... After the past, she could recall these details for a whole night. She even remembered the angle of his hat and salute very clearly, just like watching a movie, she would always be caught off guard. The small movements are picked up, tossing the windbreaker, or playing with the stick in the hand, and the movements of dexterously walking through the crowd to find the only vacancy left in the cafeteria.

It's just a pity that Mr. Holmes only has this last year left in school. If it weren't for the fact that he was still relying on the school's laboratory, maybe she wouldn't even be able to see him for this year.

But Cecily is not so idle to pester Holmes all day long. As far as she is an independent woman, she can't pursue stars to the point of bankruptcy.Some regrets are true, but they have not affected her life. As usual, she is immersed in the ocean of medicine. The medicine of this era is somewhat different from the one in her mind. She has doubted herself more than once-practice is the only criterion for testing truth. She secretly conducted an experiment to verify that some of the conclusions in the textbooks were wrong, but she was not sure whether to say it properly, and she was a little more convinced of her conclusions from the future, so she didn't seem so confused.

She and Mr. Holmes can meet two to three times a week, and they can stay for an afternoon at a time (doing experiments or reading books, they are friends with a lot of common topics), and Mr. Holmes also said that she looks much better.

During the semester, there was an experimental exam in pathology. After the exam, Cecily and Kent checked the answers outside. Because they told Holmes about today's exam in advance, their library appointment was cancelled. Cecily is fine. Discuss with Kent the polycystic kidney of the specimen they shared with Kent. Kent often talks a lot at this time, and Cecily only needs to be responsible for affirming or negating.She always talks less in front of other people and looks a little indifferent.

Cecily was not a very popular person, and she had no intention of communicating with others, but after the Smith case, Kent always seemed to trust her more, so she didn't refuse much.

"I see that you often go to the library recently. Are you researching something?" Kent asked her as if suddenly remembering something. His classmate is always mysterious, and he should be considered to have a good relationship with Sylvester. Well, it's not intrusive to ask this question.

"Recently I was reading Mendel's paper. Although the teacher didn't comment on it, I think it is very meaningful," Cecily remembers clearly. "After all, a lot of time and energy, and breakthrough methods, put mathematics into biology. Going in, I think his theory can explain a lot of things.”

Only when it comes to the content of the subject, Cecily will say more.

Kent was just about to open his mouth, but suddenly his eyes and mouth were all wide open: "...My God!"

Cecily looked over there suddenly, and saw a figure falling from the side building.

Too soon, the back of his head hit the ground heavily, and the blood flowed out, and the bright red blood spread out on the gravel road.

Before her thoughts could keep up with her body, when Cecily came back to her senses, her fingers had already touched the side of the man's neck—it was Lan Che, his eyes were wide open, and the original melancholy eyes lost their luster, which made people feel uncomfortable. Feel the shock.

he died.

Cecily looked up to the rooftop, but saw no one.

"Kent! Go call someone! Pay attention to see if there are any different people coming out of the building!" She shouted sharply, and ran into the building.

Just running to the second floor, someone grabbed her wrist and stopped her——

"Sylvester?"

"Rancho Davis fell from upstairs, I have to go up to have a look." She was not in the mood to care about anything else, she just shook off his hand and rushed up.

Holmes reacted quickly when he heard Cecily's words, and ran up three or four steps with his hands on the railing.

"What about Davis?"

"Kent is watching from below, I asked him to call someone!"

It was obviously Cecily who started running first, and Holmes was already ahead when they reached the fifth floor.

"The door is locked." Holmes pulled the door, but it did not open, nor did he turn the handle.He frowned and was thinking about what gadgets he had at hand to pick the lock, but saw Sylvester take out a black clip from his pocket, as if he was about to pick the lock.

"Sylvester!"

He stopped her.

Cecily raised her head in bewilderment: Isn't Mr. Holmes also a good lockpicker?

"Can you pick a lock?"

The author has something to say: Cecily said that I couldn’t explain my excitement so I pried it open

Then she was taken by people from Scotland Yard 233333

By the way, I reply to every comment!If you are interested, you can take a look!Meme-3-

Just because Cecily treats people as friends now doesn't mean she has always been... Her attitude is always vacillating between friends and idols.Let me say a little bit, because I am afraid that the little angels will be a little uncomfortable when she starts chasing stars again.

The comments yesterday were very enthusiastic!I'm more enthusiastic today, you don't know how to support porcelain~

Speaking of which, when Holmes asked Cecily, she thought she had lost her horse, but she didn't... emmmmm, let me spoil the spoiler. In fact, Fu and Cecily have other intersections. It's not that Cecily only sees two sides, Fu actually still pays attention to it. For Cecily, it's been a long time since Cecily has been on social occasions, and Fu didn't see her when Fu visited, and Maggie couldn't get a word out of her mouth, so I still cared about it. (This content is not good to add in the main text. I don’t know if it will be written in the extra episode in the future. I will explain it first, so that you don’t feel like it’s broken.)
