[Sherlock Holmes + Shenxia] Mirror Theory

Facts have proved that smart people think much more and see farther than ordinary people, but they are also more likely to lose everything.Fortunately, smart people usually have good execution ability. They can eliminate those wrong ideas in time and quickly return to the correct road.

When Mycroft Holmes accepted his brother's commission at five o'clock that afternoon, his first reaction was to investigate the details of this Doctor McQueen—how could it be such a coincidence?They just confirmed that McVitie is a stateless person, and then there is a case related to smugglers in a refugee camp?

After the results of his investigation came out, Mycroft decided to meet the lady doctor in person.It can be said that he did his best in dealing with Sherlock's rare commission, after all, that worrying younger brother almost never spoke to him - even though the commission this time was based on Sherlock's paralysis in bed.

After all, no matter how active a smart person is, it is impossible to drag drainage tubes, drainage bottles, urinary catheters, urine bags, and hanging bottles to check another person's details.

So, when Andreasia McQueen returned to her office exhaustedly after an emergency operation, she was almost taken aback by this senior government official who suddenly fell from the sky.Mycroft Holmes, this name is almost equivalent to a living legend in the government, and Doctor McQueen, who came from a dignified family, understands the horror of this seemingly gentle and elegant man better than ordinary people.

She looked at this man almost vigilantly, her mind was spinning rapidly, thinking about the reason why this high-ranking official suddenly appeared - who wants to deal with MI6?At least she doesn't want to.

Mycroft sat on the sofa in a relaxed posture.His deep eyes quickly looked at the beautiful woman in front of him, raised his eyebrows slightly, and said with a smile: "Doctor McQueen, don't be so nervous, after a sudden duodenectomy, you should properly Let me relax my nerves. I just came to visit my younger brother and ask his attending doctor (accent) to understand the situation."

When people are in a tired state and encounter unexpected situations, they can hardly maintain their disguise.Even though Dr. McQueen had received the best and most restrained aristocratic education, she couldn't control her momentary gaffe.But Dr. McQueen recovered immediately, and she calmly showed a reserved and polite smile to Mycroft, and said happily: "I have heard your name for a long time, Mr. Antarctica. I heard your name from my uncle." , but I really never thought that one day I would meet you in person."

Mycroft raised his eyebrows, and looked at her with some kind of probing eyes for a while, the pressure of being in a high position poured out almost unreservedly from the person in charge of MI6.He chuckled lightly, with a leisurely demeanor, but it was extremely inconsistent with what he said: "McQueen... Most of the McQueen I know are taciturn, and they can only be called outstanding when they are responders. Dr. McQueen Let me have a new perspective on the future of this family - what a responsible and energetic young man you are."

The demeanor of chatting, the attitude of uncertainty, the sharp words of the visitor.The place where this high-ranking government official is located is the kingdom where he lives and dies.At this moment, Mycroft is condescending, arrogant and cold, but also indifferent and peaceful, with elegant demeanor.This kind of outward power has nothing to do with the hidden threat or wisdom of the blade, but the power of pure power.Turning your hands into clouds and turning your hands into rain is just as easy as flipping the palm of your hand.

For Dr. McQueen and even the whole McQueen family, Mycroft Holmes is the real superior.A careless thought of his and a moment of joy, anger, sorrow, and joy are enough to determine their rise and fall.

This was pure coercion and domination, and Mycroft didn't even need to use his best wits when faced with such a trivial goal.If the criss-crossing forces and relationships of the nobles are a net that can engulf the entire country, then Mycroft is the fisherman standing at the top, leisurely observing the direction of every ripple.

Doctor McQueen barely managed a smile.She had intended to sit down, but Mycroft's casual threat kept her from doing anything, and she could only frantically try to figure out what he meant.Suddenly, she grasped his thoughts, and in panic, blurted out: "I have no malice towards your brother! I just... I have to admit, maybe this kind of thinking is not kind enough, but it's not my fault, Isn't it? I can't go to war for a stowaway, or even use my uncle's power... Well, I'm just giving it a try, I just have an idea!"

Mycroft stared at this noble lady who was on the verge of collapse under the heavy pressure with his characteristic ruthless and sharp eyes. The solemn atmosphere made the office silent and suffocating like a deep sea.After a while, he just smiled lightly.

The moment he laughed out loud, all the majesty, all the power, all the coldness and arrogance disappeared in an instant.Sitting on the sofa at the moment was just a peaceful and elegant gentleman, and he smiled gently at Dr. McQueen, even looking a bit ordinary and gentle.

"I have to apologize to you, Miss McQueen. My brother and I have over-interpreted your intentions, and I hope you can understand—special times, everyone's life is difficult." He sighed, An Ran made a gesture, signaling the other party to sit down and talk.

Doctor McQueen breathed a sigh of relief.She only felt a cold swish on her back, and she was covered in cold sweat.But now that the pressure was off, she also relaxed a little.After sitting down following the other party's signal, she answered casually: "Is Mr. Holmes paying attention to the issue of illegal immigration recently? This is really a headache. I heard that the explosion (anti-harmony) bombing case a few days ago—"

She stopped abruptly.

Mycroft's cold and merciless eyes had already caught up.

The man's posture is still gentle and kind, but the smile on his face is quite meaningful.Such insightful and cold eyes actually made Dr. McQueen more restless than the pure pressure just now, as if every pore, blood vessel, muscle and bone in his body had nothing to hide under those eyes.

"You are such a smart woman, smarter than ordinary people... You even dare to use Sherlock Holmes and Lee to solve your 'little problems'." Mycroft smiled lightly, "But your Bad luck. Shirley has always had too much useless tolerance for ladies, and my little brother is in a bad mood, so you attract the last person you should not provoke. You know? The last thing ordinary people should do , is pretending to be smart.”

Dr. McQueen was silent.

"Let's open the sky and talk straight! Miss McQueen, I'm not interested in you and your family's small business in refugee camps-although I think they will have to pay the price sooner or later, but your family's political sensitivity is very serious. Same! At this meeting..." Mycroft stopped right.He smiled slightly, changed the topic, and said indifferently: "Under certain conditions, I don't mind solving some small problems for my friends. For example--Miss McQueen, can you tell me that you are looking for Where did you send that little parrot?"

After a while, Dr. McQueen finally let out a long sigh.

The aristocratic lady from a family finally put away all her elegant manners, and lay down quite dejectedly.She laughed at herself, and said frankly: "I think you can see that I am not such a warm-hearted person. In the beginning, I wanted to protect Anxi, not out of compassion - she discovered my family Some of the "small businesses" in the family happened to be near the hospital where I worked, and I just wanted to keep an eye on her. The people who deal with those small businesses in the family are at odds with me. I have long wanted to stop these practices, but There's no other reason, I just feel that if I'm found out, it's really over. So I kept Anxi, and used it as a handle to check and balance that old guy."

"But after a long time... I feel that she is a little pitiful again. It's like raising a pet. After a long time, there will always be some affection. Who knows what will happen this time? She doesn't want my money , I only want to work in a Chinese restaurant, that's all, and I wish to be a maid... And at this time, the explosion (anti-harmony) bombing happened, my uncle warned us, the government's eyes are on the refugees problem, and reminded us to solve the problem. Just at this time, Anxi disappeared, and I thought it would be fine. It should be someone in my family who solved the problem. It’s a pity, but that’s all gone."

"But at noon today, I actually found out from her 'colleagues' that she really went to Winchester..." McQueen showed a wry smile, "I have to think about my family, so I I can only entrust Mr. Holmes who is in the hospital, after all, it is rare to see Miss Li... I did not expect that I would see the legendary 'Antarctica' so soon."

Mycroft half-raised his eyebrows, and looked at the woman in front of him with a playful expression.

What a ruthless femme fatale, with wisdom and executive power that are rare for ordinary people, who can actually use this method to get rid of her own obstacles and surrender to him.

Mycroft changed his mind, and gradually had a plan in his mind.

"Miss McQueen, I don't accept useless people. I am not a refugee camp here, nor is it your 'McQueen Medical Research Center'." Mycroft looked at the beauty in front of him indifferently, as if he was estimating a worthless person. The value of inanimate sculptures is average, and the eyes are cold but contain a kind of appreciative color that makes one's heart tremble. "But even rotten wood, under my hands, can be used to burn fire. And you... hope your value can be slightly greater."

No matter what political activities were behind this disappearance case, Li Mingye still had her integrity as a consulting detective.Since there was indeed a lady who had been tricked to Winchester, and who would be in negligible danger for the foreseeable future, she was determined not to sit idly by.

After discussing with Mycroft, she couldn't help being amazed at his plan—just as she thought, when McVitie wanted to hide, he was like a fish escaping into the sea, no matter how seasoned he was. No fisherman could catch him.But once he moved, he jumped out, planning to taste the sweet bait on the hook...

That was when he was most vulnerable but also most vigilant.

It has to be said that McVitie's (anti-harmony) bombing this time has completely annoyed Mycroft, and it would be a terrible and tragic consequence for a man like Mycroft Holmes to target him. It is when the professor is already in a weak situation.

But all of this has nothing to do with Li Mingye. What she should do is to solve this disappearance case properly, and Mycroft will take care of the political intrigue.

Speaking of this "disappearing refugee case", Li Mingye really had to thank the advancement of modern technology, which saved the poor detective a lot of effort.Based on the clues in Anxi's residence, she screened out the time when Anxi left the residence, and then returned to her monitoring room, and began to quickly call the monitoring.

Following the infinitely connected images on each screen, the whereabouts of this thin, somewhat timid Chinese girl was clearly outlined.Anxi took the train that departed from Paddington Railway Station at 15:30 that afternoon, and according to the bus schedule, the estimated arrival time at Winchester was around 16:55.

Li Mingye raised his eyebrows, his expression became a little serious.

The nearest station to the hospital, which also has trains to Winchester, is not Paddington Station, but Waterloo Station.One of these two stations is in the London Eye and the other is in Hyde Park, so the distance is not far.

Ansie chose Paddington Station, probably because she didn't buy the ticket herself—it was bought by the person who sent her to Winchester to apply for the job.In this way, I am afraid that once this little parrot gets off the train, it will directly fall into the palm of others.

With some apprehension, Li Mingye called the surveillance at Winchester Railway Station that day.The quality of the surveillance at Winchester Railway Station was a little old, and the picture was a little blurry, but this did not prevent the detective's sharp eyes like a falcon from finding the person she wanted to find.

After more than an hour of investigation, she was almost sure of one thing—after getting off the train, Anxi met the person who picked her up and had an "interview", because it was not until more than half an hour later that she and another A man reappeared in the surveillance footage.And that man is obviously very experienced in dealing with surveillance. He doesn't have a face facing the camera lens, and he can only see his stout to somewhat fat outline from the blurred image.

Then they got into a car, which was a black Ford SUV—seriously, this Ford SUV is quite popular, even Li Mingye was almost mistaken.The car didn't have a license plate, and it drove out of Winchester with a big rattle and headed out to the suburbs.

This is the last image left by Anxi.

It is rather sad that not every inch of the British Empire is monitored, especially in rural areas.Those sparsely populated southern villages have rapidly evolved into large farms. The developed dairy industry and horticultural industry have made those damn small manor owners live farther and farther away, and the surveillance on the roads cannot be safe. Go to someone's house.

And through the last frame of the car appearing and then disappearing, Li Mingye quickly called up the map of that area, and finally determined three possibilities.She turned around the cigarette in her hand—yes, it was still a cigarette. It was impossible for her to quit smoking in her life. She would rather continue to fight against the ban on smoking than to keep this little hobby.

"I think you'd better go there yourself." Behind her, Mycroft, who had been watching for a long time but still didn't speak, finally said.

Li Mingye's hands paused, and he glanced back at him with some surprise: "I thought that after you had a plan just now, you would be impatient to implement it? Mycroft, I don't think there is anything here that can be done." Worry about it, my legs are going to protest my brain if everything has to be on the spot."

Mycroft was quite at ease - he even loosened his tie.It was nearly two hours. After discussing their "fishing plan" with Shirley, he had been sitting on the sofa beside him with great interest and observing Shirley's work status.Watching other people think—for example, Sherlock or Shirley—was even a rare relaxation for Mycroft.

After all, over the past few years, the relationship between the three of them has eased a lot, instead of fighting against each other like before.

Mycroft leisurely turned the black stone long-handled umbrella on his lap, and he said: "Actually, in these two hours, I have indeed implemented the first part of my plan—for example, let the My secretary makes me a cup of coffee and sits here for two hours."

Li Mingye sneered.Just at this time, her cell phone rang, and she opened it, and it was a multimedia message from Sherlock—this young man was not idle even though he was recuperating from his illness, and he didn't know how he did it. An extremely clear photo of Anxi.The Chinese girl in the photo looks no more than 15 years old, with a thin body, a timid demeanor, and a pathetic frailty.Li Mingye handed the phone to Mycroft casually.

"Huh?" Mycroft took a look, "A poor oriental who is often exposed to various cleaning agents, suffers from inflammation of the tonsils and is malnourished. From the background, she seems to be working in a certain restaurant. What's wrong?"

Li Mingye pouted: "Obviously, this is Anxi."

"Oh!" Mycroft coughed lightly, "Well, what a...um, little parrot?" He seemed to be thinking for a while, and finally said with a smirk: "At this time, it seems that I should Just say 'poor', huh?"

Li Mingye was a little helpless: "You didn't even record the missing person's information, Mycroft."

"Ah, I'm so sorry, I exposed my inability to record useless information." Mycroft sneered, but he immediately ended the joke, and his expression became serious, "I need you to check it yourself. Chester, Shirley."

"Oh?" Li Mingye's thoughts flashed, and he understood immediately. "How long?"

"The progress of the plan can determine the length of your vacation, dear Shirley." Mycroft leaned forward, staring at the three places marked on the map, and whispered: "Hope You come back safe and sound, I don't want to see a Sherlock Holmes go mad someday in the future."

The author has something to say:

Chinese to Chinese

McQueen pointed out McQueen’s ulterior motives from the very beginning (the accent of the attending physician)

McQueen showed his favor ('Antarctica' code name is not known to ordinary people, McQueen knew McGrand, and expressed his harmlessness by not expecting to meet McGroff, showing that this was an accident)

Brother Mai (putting pressure, pretending to be coercive, calling out his high position and authority, so that the other party should stop playing tricks)

McQueen's first gaffe

Maggie (restraint and cliché)

McQueen's set (inadvertently showed his concern for politics. Most people will only know that the bombing (anti-harmony) bombing came from a terrorist organization, and only those who have checked carefully will know that McQueen started to screen illegal immigrants because of the professor )

McQueen pointed out the small business of the McQueen family (using people in refugee camps for medical human experiments, etc.)

McQueen collapsed, to be honest (the person in charge of the human experiment had conflicts with McQueen in the family, McQueen’s original intention was to use Yuan Fu to find out Anxi’s whereabouts through this case and expose the person who performed the human experiment. Because she It is the client, and has a certain degree of initiative. When Yuan Fu finds out here, she can take advantage of the situation and surrender to Brother Mai, and then remove the obstacle of her own power in the family)

Mai Ge accepted her surrender, and planned to use this person's power in other ways

Well, the Chinese translation is complete!

The professor will probably be banned in a short time. McQueen is quite an important character. Her appearance is an opportunity for the three Sherlock Holmes.
