[Comprehensive Anglo-American] A genius report on love

Chapter 34 Sherlock with full mockery

One can imagine the mood of Sherlock, who was inexplicably shown by Neil.

However, he is by no means the kind of man who would sit still and have no ability to fight back.

Although the skill of picking up girls is negative, but the reasoning skills of this genius detective with the effect of mouth cannon are full.

"Yes, although I haven't had the chance to taste it myself, but seeing your full memory and confidence in this dish is enough to make people believe that it will indeed be an unforgettable delicacy. But, so what? You The relationship with Mia is probably limited to the relationship between ex-boyfriends and boyfriends who have been separated for many years."

"..." Neil's hand, which was carving carrots, suddenly stopped, and a rose that was about to take shape was ruined just like that.

"You don't need to look at me with such unbelievable eyes, and Mia didn't tell me this information." Sherlock continued his reasoning, "Actually, you need to know that the relationship between the two of you is very simple. Mia is an FBI, and you But a criminal. You can tell by the gps tracker on your ankle the moment you enter the house. Apparently you cut off contact at least before Mia went to college, otherwise she wouldn't have passed the fbi entrance exam.

You also admitted that the last time you celebrated your birthday was when Mia was 18, so you haven't seen each other for so many years.

Moreover, Mia's forged resume has already deleted all the past between you and him. What is the reason for a woman to choose to change her name and surname after breaking up, hide her identity, or even completely change her life.I am afraid that this kind of breakup will never happen to many people in this life.Although I can't guess what happened that year, the obvious fact is: it must have been an unpleasant breakup process, so that she would deliberately choose to let you find him for so many years.

By the way, I did eat paella made by Mia, but it was in London, and in fact if this meal has so many memories between you, she should not share it with a Only met twice, people who are completely unfamiliar with each other, and she did this, it can only show that Mia has completely let go of this past experience.

To sum up, the possibility of reunion between you and Mia is probably less than 10%, no, maybe only 1%. "

In Sherlock's view, the last composite percentage is still about 30% possible, but he deliberately lowered the value, which is probably the only dishonest reasoning in his life.

Facing Sherlock, Neil suddenly seemed to turn on a certain switch. A series of non-stop words could only widen those blue eyes, completely powerless to parry...

Where did Mia pick up such a freak, wouldn't she be mad at herself first when getting along with such a person?

The steam in the pot on the stove began to "puff puff", which finally brought the shocked Neil back to his senses.

He quickly processed the ingredients, and then continued with his carving on the plate.

******************************************************************************

Mia came down from the upstairs terrace in a hurry. According to Neil's habit, he shouldn't call people here too early and then toss the more complicated dishes by himself, leaving her to wait.

Sure enough, when he entered the house, Neil had already started to put the prepared salad and appetizers on the table one by one.

Mia glanced at Sherlock who was quietly helping.

It seems a little different.

It always felt like something happened between them in less than two hours after she left this room.

Did it start a fight?

Not like it!The weird atmosphere in this room is clearly the smoke of gunpowder after the war.

It's just that these two people are neatly dressed, and they don't look like they have touched at all.

in argument?

Neil, who has always been kind to others, and Sherlock, who has always been indifferent to strangers, what can these two people argue about?

Mia secretly looked at the two people up and down for a few minutes, but decided to eat first!

*******************************************************************************

The atmosphere of the dinner, if you put it politely, can be regarded as harmonious.

At least for Mia, she has deeply experienced the extreme hospitality a man can achieve.

Basically, she didn't need any words or instructions, a look or the slight movement of a knife and fork, and the two men around her already understood.

The meals, drinks, and seasonings you want will appear within your reach immediately.

The only fly in the ointment is about...

"Did you really find the legendary Osmond yellow diamond? It has been missing for hundreds of years. It has always been rumored that the person who finally got it was in a shipwreck because of smuggling, and that diamond has long since disappeared."

The diamond that Mia and Neil are talking about at the moment is the Osmond Yellow Diamond, once known as the eighth largest yellow diamond in the world. The brand image of the company, unfortunately, this diamond disappeared after the death of Osmond.

"Yeah, I was just going to steal a painting. I didn't expect to see the Osmond Yellow Diamond in his vault. You know it's so big and shiny..." Neil said while gesturing, " I think if it is made into a brooch, it will match you very well."

"Well, I heard it was very beautiful, but it's a pity I couldn't see it with my own eyes. Then, how did you put it..."

"Obviously, Mr. Caffrey didn't get this diamond. Usually, if it needs to be preserved and displayed, and also play a good anti-theft role, this diamond should be stored in a vacuum-sealed bullet-proof glass. The alarm system passes Judging by the surrounding air pressure, if you want to take away the diamond without triggering the alarm, you must open the glass cover in a completely airtight vacuum environment. If Mr. Carvery just went to steal a famous painting, he would not be equipped with such a complete set of tools, so... ..."

"That's right. I did miss it. It's a pity that the rich businessman left the United States afterwards, and the Osmond Yellow Diamond was also heard to be secretly transferred to another place for storage."

Neil admitted the facts explained by Sherlock with a look of indifference, and then the dinner table fell into an unspeakable silence.

Can you still speak well?

Sherlock Holmes, you can't be a man if you don't attract people's suspicion, can you?

Mia growled silently in her heart...

How should her birthday party continue now?

The room was so quiet that the sound of chewing food could be heard.

Mia began to think about how to restore this awkward atmosphere.

"By the way, I haven't seen the birthday present you gave me yet." Mia randomly picked out a gift box from a corner of the table, flipped through the small card on it, "This is Neil's." She flipped it in her hand , the weight is very light, and the size of the thing does not seem to be large. "What is this? I heard that you don't have much salary in the fbi."

"It's lipstick." Sherlock is indeed a master at destroying the atmosphere. "From the outside of the box, you can smell some mixed fragrances. It's the smell of cosmetics, but this amount should not be perfume. Read the newspaper in the morning. There is a new brand of lipstick in New York that sells very well. I heard that it will be sold out almost as soon as it arrives. The advertisement says that a woman must have such a unique lipstick in her life. Mr. Carvery understands women's hearts so well, he should Will buy you one."

Mia didn't want to listen to Sherlock's detailed analysis at all, so she opened the box directly. It was indeed a lipstick, which was a bit bright red, but it was unexpectedly attractive.

The lipstick tube is white, and the material is a bit like ivory, or something like a cow bone. The shell is decorated with leather carvings, which are dyed black, with a wild beauty.

The fragrance is also very special, a little floral and herbaceous with a smell like shower milk, or to some extent closer to a woman's body fragrance. No wonder the advertisements praised it for its magical power to control men.

"It's really a special style. It seems that I have to think about what clothes to wear with it." Mia said, putting the lipstick back into the box, and picked up Sherlock's copy.

The gift was a bit heavy, and it seemed to be something like a book depending on the size.

Mia didn't know what to say, should I give someone a novel for her birthday?The great detective is too useless to be creative!

Seeing that Sherlock seemed to be looking forward to it, Mia was hesitating whether to dismantle it, when the cell phone by the table rang suddenly.

This time it turned out to be Garcia's call.

"Hi, beauty."

"Hi birthday, happy birthday." On the other end of the phone, Penelope Garcia's energetic voice always lifts people's spirits.

"Thank you, I thought you were all too busy to forget my birthday."

"Of course not. Hozner and the others are on the plane now and will arrive in New York in a while. I think they are planning to surprise you."

"Have you come to New York?" Mia thought for a while, "Is there any case?"

"That's right, and when I called you this time, I wanted to tell you besides congratulating you on your birthday. Hozner wanted to apply to the higher authorities for your assistance in this case, but the higher authorities meant to respect your wishes. "

"What's the matter? The case is serious?" Although she hasn't been away from Bau for a long time, they should have solved many cases these days, so why did she suddenly ask for her own help?

"It's true this time it's a bit complicated. If you agree to help, I will send you the information directly. Hozner and the others will call you when they arrive in New York."

"Of course, if the case is really difficult, of course I will help."
