[Comprehensive] The Great Devil

A new Facebook post by Sierra Jones has reignited the buzz.

Not only because she is a first-line actress in the UK, she has an excellent reputation among actors of the same age and class and has a good box office appeal. Although she has always followed the high-cold and low-key route and is a famous scandal insulator, The news of the murder and breach of contract, as well as starring in the recently hit unit drama "Unfinished Story" has a very high degree of exposure, which makes her attract the attention of people from all walks of life, not to mention her Facebook They are all updated by her agent, and there is rarely a day when she personally releases the news——

Until one night, a sentence that was obviously from my own tone directly made this post a hot topic on the homepage.

"Guess, who am I drinking tea with now?"

Below is the head of an alpaca staring at the camera and grinning so magically.

The comments immediately exploded.

The masses have expressed their views on this picture, with various opinions, and there is even a wave of well-spoken textual research parties——

"Alpaca, Latin scientific name: Viapacos, English name: alpaca. This must remind us that the person who drinks tea with the goddess is called 'Apaca'!"

"This animal seems to have originated from South America. What do you mean? Could it be that the goddess is dating the newly-emerged Brazilian football star Salvador?!"

"Does anyone know which star in the circle likes to raise alpacas?! This is obviously not a wild animal but a pet!"

"After thinking about it, I'm afraid it's not that simple—"

"What kind of animal is this...the face and hairstyle are weird...was it just rescued from the explosion, so it was burnt into such a curl?"

"Since I saw this picture, I feel that the whole person has become a bit bad..."

"The World Animal Protection Association sent a protest! Refuse to abuse all creatures! All creatures on earth are equal!"

"Xiu Enai still has this kind of operation!"

"This picture is very likely to be turned into this by P! Is there any master who is proficient in restoring pictures? There must be the truth behind it!"

"No, I actually laughed out loud along with it ==..."

"Drinking tea at such a late hour proves that we must have had dinner together and stayed alone for a while... Goddess is a good thing is coming soon?! Please tell me the wedding time!!"

"I just want to know what role Sierra will play in the next episode of "Story"... The schizophrenic patient in the last episode scared me out of the shadows of my life. I slept with the lights on and eyes open for three consecutive nights... ..."

"I clicked on the picture with anticipation and thought it was a selfie of the goddess Meimei, but I was shocked when I didn't agree with each other..."

"I didn't expect you to be such a Sierra Jones! You actually drank tea with others behind your back! What kind of tea did you drink? Where did you drink it? Is it delicious?"

"Visual Sierra's next post is 'Guess, who am I married to now?'"

"Hold back the tears... I can't bear it at all... I can't bear it anymore... Cry out loud!"

……

……

Sera excitedly flipped through the comments one by one, laughing from time to time, lamenting the breadth and depth of the people who eat melons - 30.00% guessed that her good deeds were coming, 30.00% were extremely serious and serious, and listed all the evidence , 30.00% are begging for spoilers for the next episode of "Unfinished Story" and answers for the previous episode, and the remaining [-]% are completely unrelated to the topic, making people confused...

Among them, there was a comment that caught her attention——

A netizen nicknamed "I-LOVE-A" only wrote a few short words: "Is it Sherlock Holmes?"

When Sera saw this, she turned her head and thought for a while, showing a mysterious smile, and replied to this inconspicuous comment that was buried in various guesses——

Sera Jones: ^-^

The comments that had been jumping and refreshing suddenly fell silent for a few seconds——

Then it exploded instantly!

"My God, I actually replied!"

"Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah I love you Serra I love you Sherlock I love you and your children ah ah-"

"In my lifetime, I actually waited until the day when my two favorite people drink tea together..."

"Hey! This ID! Is it from country Z!"

"It seems to be really... amazing my Z country netizens..."

"Could this be the legendary mysterious power from the East?"

Soon the netizen who guessed the answer was frantically bombarded by people from all walks of life asking how he knew the answer.Apparently, the other party didn't expect Sera to reply him in person, and was stunned by the number of followers who came like an explosion. After a long pause, he struggled to express his guess in the comments that kept refreshing like a rocket——

"I accidentally clicked on the personal website of Sherlock Holmes, it was... a very magical place, and then I started to pay attention to him. I didn't expect him to become famous very soon... Selah has always been an actor I like very much , I have seen all her works, and I refresh her updates every day... And it is said that in the previous case, she asked Mr. Detective to investigate in person, so I guessed that there might be some sparks between them?...Of course this It's just my own selfishness-.-"

Netizens sighed "WOW~" one after another, and then strongly demanded to continue to dig deeper: Obviously, this oriental netizen with mysterious power knows something inside, otherwise why would they not know that Serra actually named Sherlock Holmes in person?So netizens must have a backer!Maybe he is a policeman!

"I-LOVE-A", who has been followed by everyone, couldn't help being shy for a while, and under the encouragement (and threat) of everyone, he sent another message: "I also like Dr. John Watson's blog very much. He tells about The adventure story with the detective is very interesting, but it is a pity that Mr. Holmes does not seem to take cases frequently, so I can see the new blog dynamics after a while... It is a pity that Watson’s perspective is too straight, let me wait Although I was very interested in watching it, it was not exciting enough, because the story always lacks a strong heroine. And when I first saw this picture, I subconsciously identified it as a detective, so..."

This netizen added a sentence of his own wish embarrassingly: "So I hope that next time I can see the names of my favorite actress and favorite detective appear on the headlines of the gossip page at the same time - CP fan this life No regrets."

……

Soon, the wish of this eastern netizen came true——

The next day, all the gossip headlines in major newspapers were slaughtered——

This is a more modest and connotative statement——

"The hottest actress meets the hottest male detective for tea—but only for tea?"

This is a more revealing and elegant guess——

"A night of super friendship between the so-called zero gossip Sierra Jones and the gossip-filled Sherlock Holmes - the parties reply in person, and the woman's first love will appear."

This is an unrestrained and wild conclusion that simply puts aside all facets——

"The goddess of literature and art and the consulting detective are cohabiting in private, and they are suspected of marrying a child—come on, a beautiful wedding, it turns out that the beautiful goddess will also fall in love with the curly-haired alpaca one day!"

So the downstairs of Sierra's apartment was surrounded more and more tightly by the dedicated paparazzi who heard the news.

However, no matter how eagerly the reporters tried to pry open the mouth of the person involved to get a definite answer, the former goddess of literature and art and box office elixir only showed a mysterious smile like a mystery, smiled without saying a word, and let the scandal rage. The hype was booming, and even the consulting detective was known to many people in the entertainment industry. No. 221B Baker Street was packed to the ground every day, and the business of the coffee shop downstairs was seriously affected. The boss had to call the police to disturb the people. In name, the police forcefully drove away this group of followers of the media, and only then did the nearby neighbors get some peace for a while.

But before that, when Sierra anticipated the direction of the matter and sent out the news on purpose, she conveniently set the contact named "SH" to the "SMS rejection" mode.Facts have proved that she made an extremely wise choice - because Sherlock Holmes was being chased and intercepted by the paparazzi all over the place. After sending her a text message but being told that he could not receive it, he finally couldn't help sending her a message to Mycroft for the first time. Someone outside took the initiative to make a call——

"Mrs. Hudson urged me to tell you to come and spend Christmas Eve with me at 221B Baker Street. It was not my wish. I was just passing on her word and no presents. I have nothing here if you insist. You can completely ignore what I just said as a friendly reminder, please go out after dinner—”

Sierra looked at the hung up phone, was silent for a while, and then suddenly laughed.

See, this is the second key point in dealing with Sherlock Holmes: If you have a Mr. Detective around you who is smart, self-centered, maverick (ignoring the world), doing things like a spinning top that can't stop and will never stop. Say "Icareyou" to the people you care about, and more importantly, this guy has always sent text messages and doesn't like to answer the phone. When the other party wants something from you, you might as well come up with a trick to reject the text message, so that he has to call himself if he has something to do.Let him be forced to take the initiative to find himself, instead of following his rhythm and being driven around by him——

It is more reassuring to hold the dominance and initiative in your own hands.

Sera stared at the pitch-black screen for a long time, thinking that after this time, Mr. Detective would finally remember to change the line "unknown name" to her initials or some more meaningful symbol—for letting He is a rare person who has suffered, and he is always able to impress.

——But she still didn't cancel her plan to "reject text messages" from Sherlock Holmes.The detective managed to find some fun in her text messages during his boring leisure time, so that he would not allow himself to live a boring life again.

On Christmas Eve, there was a fine snowfall in London, and countless warm lights were lit up in the city, which made this snowy night warm and harmonious. Walking through the streets and alleys, you can still walk to the melodious singing from the next room , singing the simple but profound "MerryChristmas", repeating reincarnation non-stop, warming people's hearts.

Only on this kind of festival can Serra go out freely without being disturbed by paparazzi.Wearing a black wool coat and a thick and warm knitted scarf, she walked slowly along the street to Baker Street and came to apartment 221B.She stood downstairs, in the quiet night, she raised her head and looked at one of the brightly lit windows under the street lamp.A fine white snow fell on her eyelashes, which was quickly melted into water by the body temperature, drenching the slightly trembling eyelashes.

She exhaled soundlessly, and it instantly turned into white air and dissipated in the cold evening wind.

She heard the melodious violin music and faint joyful laughter from that window.She guessed that she was probably late, and there were already a lot of people gathered there, which was very lively.Maybe not bad for her.

Yes, of course she will not be missing one.Although Mrs. Hudson obviously has a difficult past, she is still an elegant and friendly old man. She invites Sierra more out of courtesy and wants Sherlock to have interesting company when she is bored.But now, many people are with him, at least for one night, this genius will no longer feel lonely.

Sera quietly looked up at the window. She was only a few feet away, and her eyes were as quiet as this snowy night.

She even began to envy these people—they can clearly know their past, plan for the future, calculate everything step by step, and are ready to face all the happiness and misfortune in life.When they are depressed, they have someone they can talk to and share their secrets with others. It is a kind of hard-won luck to do nothing in the leisure afternoon and fall asleep in a chair.They are all part of this world, blending with it without gaps, running together, and existing in a lively manner. If they are tired, they can stop and rest for a while, and then continue to set off tomorrow.The short life is passing slowly in their eyes, and life becomes more meaningful because of it.

You don't have to worry about walking alone with the weight of your own destiny, and you don't have to worry about having a nearly eternal life and becoming extremely tired, depressed, and the road ahead is at a loss. The desire to fight is gradually extinguished because of the passage of time. The truth seems to be close at hand, but the reality is far away.All those she has experienced, what she has paid, and those who exist in her memory will grow old, die, turn into fly ash, and perish forever.Except her.Only she remembers all the memories of this double.

"Listen, singing." Sera tilted her ears, murmured, and smiled.

The singing is because the people here have festivals, and the festivals exist in their country.But where is her country, her nation, her home?Which day will be her holiday, her birthday and her death?

In the reincarnation again and again, what she needs to overcome most is not a powerful enemy, but eternal loneliness.

Her enthusiasm faded irresistibly with time.But in Sherlock Holmes, she can feel this enthusiasm again. This guy always seems to have the ability to ignite everything and everything around him, so that everyone can feel the strong pulse in his blood. And a passion that won't get tired.Most people in this city can be mediocre, with only the bustling streets and shops in their eyes, and the traffic coming and going.But walking with Sherlock Holmes, you can see a prairie battlefield.She'd been absolutely sure of that the first time she saw Sherlock in the newspaper, when she saw the light in his eyes.

She originally thought that there were not many people who could discover this side, because geniuses always stand outside the crowd, and being alone to death is the best destination for a genius.After all, the world is not worthy of him.Maybe she will be one of the few people who can feel the fireworks and loneliness in his heart.Sadly, by this point, she thought maybe she was wrong.

What a rare and fortunate genius.He has a talent that is hard to beat in the world, but at the same time, he also has the understanding and love from his family and friends that geniuses usually don't have.Perhaps because of this, he becomes a judge rather than a criminal.

Sierra quietly looked at the light coming out of the window, and couldn't help smiling. After standing under the streetlight for a long time, she finally turned around and left without a sound.

However, the vibration of the mobile phone in her pocket stopped her.She took it out and saw that the name of the caller was very clear and eye-catching on the lit screen: "SH".

Sierra lowered her eyes, remained silent for a few seconds, and finally decided to answer the call.She pressed the call button, put the phone to her ear, and said softly, "What's the matter?"

There came faint laughter, and a calm, clear, surprisingly fast bass.

"Mrs. Hudson asked you for the third time in the first five seconds. I think you are already late for 36 minutes and 27 seconds. If you stand downstairs like the streetlight next to you and don't come in, you just peek at everything inside with envious and longing eyes." So may I take it that you declined Mrs. Hudson's invitation and that I can pass the news to her as soon as this call is over—"

"..." Sera curled the corners of her lips silently, and she immediately turned around and looked up at the window. A familiar figure was standing there, holding a cell phone and looking down at her through a window screen.Evidently, if she had actually turned away, he would have been more than happy to go at once and tell the helpful landlady that she too had been rejected on Christmas Eve.

Sera raised his head, and Sherlock lowered his head. Their eyes met in the air for a few seconds, and they remained still. Only the fine snow fell silently on the long hair and shoulders. The picture was so beautiful that it was almost frozen into eternity.

A few seconds later, Sera smiled, and whispered to the person on the phone, "Tell her I'll be right there with presents—including the Sherlock Holmes one."

"Beep beep——" the other side quickly hung up the phone.Always clean and neat detective style.

Sierra lowered her head and smiled, put the phone back into her pocket, and walked into No. 221B stepping on a field of white snow.

Going upstairs, the light and melodious violin sounded again from behind the door, as well as very warm and cheerful laughter.She paused at the door for a moment, then finally stretched out her hand and knocked on the door.

The violin stopped.Two seconds later, the man in the black coat quickly opened the door, glanced at her, then took two steps back to make way for her, and closed the door with a bang after she walked in.

There was a moment of silence in the room.

Sierra stood at the door covered in snowflakes and chills. She glanced around and found several familiar faces and new ones——Mrs. Hudson, John Watson, next to him should be his girlfriend, and A friendly young woman with an upright face who was chatting with the landlady's wife.

The atmosphere in the room froze for a moment because of her appearance.

But soon Sherlock Holmes broke the silence—

"Sierra Jones," the detective introduced her with a stern face, in a short, crisp sentence, "one of the suspects in the hotel murders, actress, and gossip forger."

Serra, "...Thank you, Mr. Holmes—the last sentence is a bit redundant."

Sherlock, "I think the last sentence is the finishing touch."

Serra glanced at him impassively, and the detective returned a deadpan expression.

"Cough, cough, cough!" Watson promptly eased the tense atmosphere. He stood up and stroked his collar restrainedly, with a smile on his face, "Welcome, Miss Jones—"

"Call me Sierra, doctor," she said.

Watson paused, and his smile grew warmer, "Okay, Selah—you are welcome, Selah, Mrs. Hudson mentioned you just now, she asked why you haven't come yet, and we have all the hot tea for you It's so cold—”

"I got caught on a phone call." Sierra remained motionless under Sherlock Holmes' gaze. She looked at one of the young women with a cautious expression, and paused, as if remembering something, before nodding her head to salute, " You must be the Molly mentioned in the doctor's blog, nice to meet you."

The other party tugged at the skirt that was a little too tight, and quickly responded, his eyes flicked between her and Sherlock, with a certain familiar tension and anxiety.

Sera immediately understood, she raised her eyebrows, but didn't say much, she nodded to Watson's girlfriend, then looked at Mrs Hudson, raised a smile, "Good evening, ma'am, I'm sorry I'm late, But I think you'll forgive me if you see what I've given you - oh, and a share for you and your girl, Sherlock, and Miss Molly -"

The other party was stunned, with a surprised expression of "I'm still there".

"Of course," Sera said calmly, slowly pulling out tonight's surprise from the bag, "Good things, of course we need to share—"

"Oh!" Watson exclaimed. "Champagne! Since Serra brought it, it must not be ordinary—"

Molly hurriedly went to the kitchen to get the bottle opener, and with a bang, the fragrance diffused faintly in the room.

Sherlock moved his nose slightly, and immediately recognized the source of the surprise, "96 Bollinger Old Vine Noir Blanc Champagne."

Watson was stunned, "This, this is really... too expensive!"

Bollinger Champagne was originally created in 1829, and was designated as royal champagne by Queen Victoria in the 80s.The old vines used for winemaking survived the phylloxera disaster in France. They are natural and ungrafted. The grapes produced have concentrated aroma, high sugar content and early maturity.The annual output of old vine champagne is less than 3000 bottles.And this bottle of Noir Blanc Champagne has a strong Pinot Noir flavor, and its quality is extraordinary and unmatched. The price of each bottle of 96 years exceeds thousands of pounds, and it is a treasure that can only be bought through certain channels and means.

This sincerity is really enough.In an instant, the stagnant atmosphere became hot.

"A Christmas gift from a generous movie fan," Sierra smiled slightly. "It would be a waste for me to drink it alone. It would be more meaningful for everyone to enjoy it together."

Mrs. Hudson usually likes to drink some good wine, and she is probably the person here who can feel the beauty of wine the most.She did not refuse Sera's kindness, and accepted the gift happily. When the mellow and charming aroma of champagne was poured into the glass and penetrated into the nose, everyone couldn't help sighing softly on their faces. An intoxicating and precious Christmas Eve.

Sierra smiled and looked at everyone's eager expressions. When they praised the unique flavor of champagne, a deep male voice suddenly came from behind, "Where is my gift—you said my gift—?"

Sera glanced at him, "I thought Sherlock Holmes wouldn't care about such insignificant things."

"Since you declared that you gave it to me, then it belongs to me, and my belonging is no longer an insignificant matter." Sherlock replied naturally, then looked at her, and emphasized again, "Where is it? "

Sera didn't move, just raised his eyebrows, and asked him slowly, "Before that, I want to know... am I still 'Unknown Name'?"

Sherlock paused.

He felt incredible for Sera's small-mindedness and vengeance-most of the women around him played the roles of ordinary people. It is the admirable virtue of peace, kindness, and tolerance—at least not as preoccupied, deep-minded, extremely clever and tricky as Sierra Jones.

And she even set up a text message rejection for him!Can you believe it? She actually did that!He didn't even do that to Mycroft and his mom!

She was the first one who forced him to call the other party because of a trivial matter—for example, wanting to know whether the murderer in the play is the person he reasoned about, God——!

Not to mention that she forced herself to get angry again!It is impossible to recall the spectacular scene of the huge crowd at the entrance of 221B Baker Street at that time, but they were chased and intercepted on the street when they went out!

She must be taking revenge on him—and obviously her revenge has an extended timeliness. Maybe he wouldn't have predicted the outcome at the time, but there is no doubt that once it happened, the consequences would be very serious.

It's definitely not something to be messed with - the detective once again confirmed his knowledge of this woman in an instant.

Sherlock Holmes looked at her, stretched his hand behind his back, quickly pressed a few keys on the phone calmly, and then put the phone behind him when Serra stopped and looked at him with raised eyebrows. She showed her in front of her eyes with a serious and fearless expression.

"Here's your new note," he said.

Sierra glanced at the screen and paused.

On the familiar number, there is a column of eye-catching words - "SHE".

Sera looked away, looking at him with a half-smile.

"Sherlock Holmes," she said lazily, "I'm glad I finally have a personal note to read... But there's another thing I'd like to know—"

"SHE—did it come from the text message Watson sent you at that time, or...you forgot my real name again?"

Sherlock, "..." Oops.

Seeing the subtle change on the detective's usually calm face, Sera squinted her eyes.

"Ha, I'm not surprised at all," she said in a very flat tone, and then changed the topic, "—Of course, since you have made the changes as promised, I will keep my promise and give you a special peace Night gift—”

Sherlock Holmes couldn't help pricking up his ears.

Sierra leaned close to his face, with a hoarse and extremely seductive voice mixed with a slightly drunken smell of wine and a smile, she opened her mouth in a low voice.

"You, me, Mike, and the mysterious investor... The next script of "Unfinished Story", after a long and ups and downs official trailer, will be performed by us together, a unique and wonderful legend -"

Sherlock's pupils shrank.

He heard her low, mysterious and dangerous laugh.

"And... that Mr. M, let me say hello to you on his behalf—"

thump—

The melodious chime of zero o'clock resounded through the night sky, and the brilliant fireworks instantly illuminated the sky outside the window.

Sherlock turned his head slowly, looking at the smiling woman.She picked up a glass of champagne and toasted him, as if meeting a friend she hadn't seen for many years, with a familiar and friendly tone.

"Merry Christmas, My sweet Shirley."

The author has something to say: [SH, and SHE...is really a coincidence, do you believe it? 】

And the big devil didn't forget to tease Xiao Gongju Xiali at the end. 233333
