Holmes said that he went to Mycroft's office, but in fact he went to the house he rented in Cambridge Town. It was his current "detective agency" for temporary work, and it was more important than receiving clients. More is to put some of his equipment.Some experimental instruments and the tools needed for disguise are not suitable for school.And the detective agency he prepared is not yet famous, and he is not even half interested in the task of finding the cats and dogs of the ladies who are trying to show his love. Fortunately, he can change his face, which allows him to He sneaked into Scotland Yard from time to time, looking for something he was interested in doing.

He now wants to see what one of the suspects, Mr. Miller, has done.

Miller's family background is not good, he can be regarded as a lower middle class group, he studies hard and has no problems at ordinary times, but this person always speaks a little bitterly on weekdays, with some self-righteous attitude, and he is not annoying like.And Davis happened to be the former heir of an upstart family, so in terms of values, it didn't meet Miller's preferences.It's just that Miller is very respectful to Mr. Davis on this face. After all, the teachers in the school will be his resources in the future.

It would be fine if it only stopped there. Rancho Davis was also the heir of the Davis family at the time, and he chose to be a teacher because he was tired of the sharp-edged feeling in the conversation. Le's mask couldn't be worn firmly in front of Rancher Davis.

Just two days before Davis died, the two had a dispute. The specific reason is unknown. It can only be said that Miller himself confessed that it was because Mr. Davis accused him of hypocrisy, and Miller also felt that Mr. Davis It is not hypocrisy to say that you are tired of the life of the nobility but actually have to rely on the blessing of your family.

On the morning of the incident, Miller had no class. According to Miller, he worked part-time at a restaurant for a long time. The restaurant is not far from the coffee shop. Scotland Yard also asked the boss to obtain evidence that he was indeed at work that day.Holmes calculated that he would be working in the restaurant at this time today, so he pretended to be a beggar and squatted across the street from the restaurant.

Holmes thinks there is something wrong with Miller.Miller's watch was not something he could afford. Even if the owner of the restaurant was generous, Holmes felt that it must be beyond his financial range.He felt there must be something else, and perhaps it had something to do with Davis' death.

Holmes waited at the spot for about 15 minutes, and saw Miller. He was even dressed up, not like the clothes of the migrant student union.

A young beggar with a crooked mouth came to his side, holding a bowl in his hand. Holmes raised his head sharply and looked at the young beggar in bewilderment.

"You are new here." The young beggar spoke in a strange voice because the corners of his mouth were crooked. He stood and spoke to Holmes in a very determined tone.

Holmes stood up quickly, and his voice seemed to be choked out of his throat, almost as if he was scraping a blackboard with his fingernails, sharp and hoarse: "Yes."

The young beggar grunted, and held out his bowl to Holmes, who graciously took a shilling from his own.

The young beggar frowned, looking at the hunchback with messy hair and dirty body in front of him, his tone was a little displeased: "A shilling? You are too—"

"Frank."

An equally hoarse voice stopped the young beggar. Holmes looked gratefully at the person who interrupted their conversation. He felt that this person looked familiar, but his mind was stuck for a while and he couldn't react.Holmes stretched his neck and nodded submissively, with a flattering look, and lowered his eyes flatteringly to show his humbleness—of course, for Holmes, it was just for him to observe more comprehensively.

When he noticed the beggar's nails, he was a little stunned. Compared with his own disguise and the appearance of the crooked man called Frank just now, this man's nails were too clean.

Frank took the bowl back resentfully: "I said, Karen, the newcomer should behave a little bit."

Annoyed, he wiped his nose with his fingers to relieve the itching, but after rubbing it, he sneezed itchyly and didn't cover it up with his hands, all the saliva landed on Holmes' hands.

The beggar named Karen frowned, and stabbed Frank, laughing that he asked others to behave at a time like this, obviously he himself was the most naughty.Frank just smiled flatteringly.

After Karen turned around and sat down in his usual place, Holmes looked at Frank and sat down honestly in his place.Frank frowned and looked at him, and kicked his thigh with his foot wearing a dirty leather shoe he didn't know where to pick up: "Go aside."

Holmes timidly retracted his legs a little more. Under his deliberate camouflage, Holmes seemed to be shrunk into a shadow, looking pitiful.

Calendo glanced at it, as if something was touched in his heart, his brows twitched, and he walked up to Holmes: "Those who endure to the end will surely be saved."

Holmes heard that it came from the Bible, but as a beggar, he should not understand it, so he just looked at it in a daze.

Karen seemed to want to say something, but suddenly got bored again, turned around and walked away. He was also a little hunchbacked, his body was rickety, and his walking was a little unsteady.Holmes felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't figure out what the problem was.

The gray Cambridge sky was like a curtain for this man, and he seemed to melt into it as he walked.

Holmes glanced at the dining room. Mr. Miller did not come out after entering the restaurant. He looked back at Karen. Karen had already caught the attention of passers-by. He was giggling and holding the bowl high to catch it A coin tossed by a passerby.

He seems to be the leader of the beggars here.

Holmes is thoughtful—a bible-able beggar who deserves attention.

While paying attention to the movement in the restaurant, he listened carefully to Karen’s words—the distance wasn’t too close, but Karen’s voice was quite loud, and he could clearly hear the Bible and some side-notes coming out of Karen’s mouth. In other words, it can be seen that Karen sometimes doesn't seem to care so much about the charity given by pedestrians, but as long as the pedestrian gives him, he will accept it.

Some passers-by gave Holmes a coin or two. Holmes sat weakly on the spot, nodded his thanks, and looked around for what he wanted to see with his squinted eyes.

He had to go to the back of the restaurant to see if Miller was there.

Cecily didn't sleep well all night, she tossed and turned, and didn't know what was going on in her head. When she woke up the next day, she glanced at her pocket watch. It was only early five o'clock. She couldn't fall asleep, so she simply woke up body.For some reason, he also didn't want to study, looking at all the medical books on the table, Xianxian Yusheng suddenly fell down.

She sighed.

very confused.

She is really confused.

Even more confused, she hardly knew what she was confused about.

She suddenly wanted to see Mr. Holmes.

It was only six o'clock when we went out, and the sky in Cambridge town continued the grayness of London. Cecily remembered that the original novel mentioned the sky that Mr. Holmes saw from the window of Baker Street more than once.In such humid air, she only felt that the entire periphery was wrapped in moisture, but it seemed as if all the moisture in her body had been sucked out, and she felt dry from the bottom of her heart.

She joked that she was a medical student, and even cited such an example.

In a daze, she walked to the downstairs of the crime scene, thought for a while, and then simply walked up.

When I walked to the second floor, I didn't expect to meet someone—it was so early in the morning.

"classmate!"

Cecily turned around in a trance, and found that it was a professor-like person. She was a little puzzled: "Sir?"

"Have you arrived at the teaching building so early?" The man's eyebrows were raised, but his demeanor was different from Mr. Holmes's sharpness, with a hint of gloom, but his tone was very gentle.

Cecily smiled, her voice was sleepy: "I can't sleep, I want to sit up."

"A suicide case just happened in this building. You look mentally ill by yourself. You must pay attention."

The man seemed to look at Cecily carefully, and said sincerely, and then went straight to the classroom on this floor.

Because Cecily was still a little out of bed, she was a little unconscious, until the man walked away and suddenly felt a chill stabbing her back.She began to feel that the man seemed not simple.

There is no reason, maybe it comes from a weird intuition.

She couldn't speak, and she didn't want to think about it.

The door to the roof was locked, and Cecily was a little slumped, so she simply leaned against the steps of the roof door, sitting with her legs bent, but she felt drowsy again, and her spine hurt when the door panel slammed, she couldn't help it. Laughing at myself in my heart, I touched the cane with one hand and let myself be occupied by unconsciousness.

It seemed like a nightmare.

But there was a tear in his voice.

"Here I am," he said.

The voice matched a certain scene in her dream. She didn't have time to change out of her clothes, but carefully put on her favorite pectoral, and cautiously raised her head to look at the man who opened the door.

At that time, he didn't expect that she was asking for marriage, but he just told her in a slightly confused but gentle way: "I'm here."

The author has something to say: a small question:

In fact, when I said that Fu’s character was designed, I considered Fu’s meanness. At that time, I considered that when I met Cecily in the early days, he was just a college student, so I wouldn’t say it all, so I just complained in my heart and looked like a gentleman.Then when I wrote it, I seldom directly wrote blessings, and I didn’t want to write it as an argumentative essay. Why did he say such a thing and why did he do it so he didn’t show it.When I write it later (when Cecily and Fu are getting closer, and they should be more joking), Jeremy's face is substituted, and he seems to be too gentle in the writing!The following manuscripts probably cannot deviate from this sense of gentleman, (Fu's complaints are usually one or two incisive sentences, I will try to reflect it later) Maybe I have my own fangirl halo.I hope everyone understands, and I will improve as soon as possible.

Anithin gave me a summary, Fu has an idol halo, I have a fan girl halo, and Cecily has an idiot halo.

I have been sticking to Futongren all the time, and I feel that the blessings I wrote seem to be too gentle (fan girl halo), maybe I need to adjust my mentality.

Back to text.

Miller's character is based on a case from the original book, can you see it ;)
