Daily demolition of the store [Comprehensive British and American]

With more paperwork to sort out, Novia no longer doubts the authenticity of the Memory Palace.The IQ of the Sherlock Holmes brothers is off the charts - that's an indisputable fact.

But in front of those paper documents that will always run out of ink cartridges every day, Novia still can't help but wonder if there are some extremely confidential information, such as information that she has no access to, that Mycroft has hidden in a certain place. A hidden place that is less likely to be discovered than the red box.

To describe Novia's suspicion more precisely——

She tried to find out if Mycroft knew anything about her family, and refused to share it with her.

Novia took over and sorted out a lot of written materials, and as many times as she had been lucky, her wishes had come to nothing.

Finally, Novia couldn't help asking questions once.

"Sir, will some documents keep the principle of avoiding the parties, and then don't transfer them to other places?"

Are all the files here - that's Novia's exact question.

In the midst of his busy schedule, Mr. Holmes looked up from the papers.He looked at Novia—had a roadside hot pot with mustard for breakfast.He ran through a traffic light on the way here, but of course he managed to save the day with his good skills.But even if Novia arrived at the workplace safely, all the traces she showed were as bad as the question she raised this time.

"what do you want to say?"

"Are materials of the same level equally important in your cognition?"

Mycroft paused his movements, put down his pen, put his hands crossed on the table, and said to Novia in a slightly helpless tone: "You'd better describe it more clearly."

This repeated behavior aroused Novia's vigilance, and she realized that her behavior disturbed Holmes' work and was also very unprofessional.

Novia bit her lips tightly, she tried hard to restrain herself, not to ask the question absolutely straightforwardly.Her expression was enough for Mr. Holmes to know what she meant. If he didn't respond, there must be deep considerations.

Now, the question itself has become meaningless on the spur of the moment.

But the conversation that started has to go on.

Novia changed her mind, and she turned to Mycroft to ask another question: "Would you hide the information somewhere else?"

"Of course not, Novia! There is no place safer than here!"

Novia wasn't sure what Mycroft was referring to. His gaze was indeed on the black umbrella. Since the handle of the black umbrella was hollow, it was indeed a good place to hide paper or memory chips, but Mycroft's half-smile expression seemed to have seen through Novia's strange imagination.

It's still possible, though, that he was referring to the security of this office, or his brain.

Novia's work is basically like this, it is difficult for her to fully understand what the boss is thinking.

It wasn't until long after she left the office that she belatedly remembered that she had been fooled by Holmes again!

She had never seen the information about Sherlock on paper, but Mycroft still knew it very well, down to the exact time his brother woke up.

But at this time, Sherlock hadn't moved to Baker Street, and Novia was just relying on the future and commenting on the present.

She was about to despair of the story of the black umbrella.

There is one thing that the distressed Novia will never know--after she left the room, Holmes shook his head slightly, and one day Novia will know--her family is not what she used to be. What I saw in 18 years.

But it is not at this time, the current Novia is not yet capable of bearing the truth.

_____

In addition to having a black umbrella, Mr. Holmes also has a small black car.

In addition to her job as a secret agent and part-time secretary, Novia also has a more hidden job-to be the driver of Mr. Holmes.

Drivers have always been a very well-informed business.The relatively closed environment is easy for people to have the idea of ​​speaking freely, and the driver sitting in the front row is the completely neglected audience.

It's the last day of the year, and I work overtime as usual, but in the hours before New Year's Eve, even Iceman will give himself a short break.

Novia didn't like this day of carnival. She spent every new year after that at work, and no longer relied on the sense of ritual brought by all-night carnival.

Especially this year, when Mycroft was finally willing to tell Novia the truth about the accident, it took her a long time to get out of depression and despair.

In fact, this year's New Year's road conditions can also be called a disaster.

——Late at night, crowds during the New Year's Eve, heavy rain, and finally a vigorous car accident at the end of the road.

Novia drove the car carefully trying to avoid pedestrians, but she soon realized that it was pointless.Those who came out of the bar, drunk by the carnival atmosphere and alcohol, put on a raincoat perfunctorily because of the weather conditions. Many people's clothes were torn, and they screamed and cheered unconsciously. A kind of suicidal, attacking, attacking aura, bumping into it on its own.

Under such a difficult situation, it was not too surprising that there was a car accident ahead.

"It seems that your luck is not very good, you will be stuck on the road during the New Year!" She turned around from the driver's seat gleefully, and shouted at Mycroft, the noisy voices on the street made her have to do this Only by doing can the meaning be conveyed.

——The rearview mirror was not enough to see Holmes' expression clearly.

But when he turned his head, he could observe clearly, and Novia wanted to take a photo of this expression as a souvenir.At the beginning of a year, even Mr. Holmes became a little softer. He rubbed his forehead helplessly and reminded Novia: "Never let yourself become a cynical person!" Even Novia's experience It was heartbreaking indeed.

"I'm just expressing sympathy!" Novia shrugged. This was not the kind of 'car accident' caused by Mycroft, but I'm afraid not many people would believe it.Occasional accidents are full of comedy elements, which also gave Novia the mood to have a simple chat after months of frustration.

"What's more, your refrigerator is empty. Why don't you go home at this time and find a better bar to have a drink or two."

But this is not the Diogenes Club, and the crowded bars nearby are not enjoyable at all. Novia's suggestion is more of a joke.

The next topic can be to discuss future career planning. Novia's business has made great progress during this period. She has been out on the field with tailors in London, and cooperated with them to fill out the corresponding mission report.There are also some world-class thieves, artists and even superpowers who have done something to save the world.

No matter what the circumstances, Mr. Holmes was like the anchor chain on the big ship, ensuring that Novia would not go too far in the wind and waves.

At least when they were in the ward that day, none of them thought that there would be such a relatively long-term cooperative relationship.

"If so many things hadn't happened, I would have opened a dessert shop. It would definitely be loved by many people." Or if he hadn't experienced these variables, Novia would be one of the New Year's Eve drunks outside the car Be a good girl who will always be kept in the dark. During college, she thought she secretly had a boyfriend without being discovered by her family!

The car moved forward with difficulty for a distance of one parking space.

Under the mixed lights of street lamps and signboards at night, Novia saw a familiar figure standing on the side of the street.

For a moment she couldn't believe her eyes.

The standing man didn't wear much, but the leather pants and oversized fashion brand jacket on his body were very eye-catching.The former highlights the advantages of his long legs, while the latter adds some student's feeling to him.

One last detail - the man has curly hair.

Novia peeked at Mycroft's expression in the rearview mirror.Holmes was silent, but Novia had indeed seen Sherlock under the eaves.

A simple quiz question.

When an addict is short of money, what career will the money come in quickly?

A simple tip.

This profession is very old and has a long history.

Conclusion - Novia guesses that Sherlock may be researching a topic of interest to him, but it's not 100% sure.

No one knows what Sherlock, who is addicted to drugs, will do.

But of course his elder brother will take care of him.

Noah shrunk her neck, she was worried that Mycroft would explode on the spot, and she was even more worried about whether she would be assigned to follow Sherlock all the way - the agent who was originally assigned to monitor Sherlock, if If it wasn't for taking a leave of absence during the Chinese New Year, it was probably because he was not good at learning and lost Sherlock.

"I wanted to share a glass of red wine with you. But now it seems that we will part here, Miss Reeves."

Holmes' heavy tone made Donovia dumbfounded.After all, this year's Sherlock Holmes can't imagine the big news that Sherlock will make in the future.

"There are still 10 minutes until the new year, so I wish you a happy new year in advance."

Novia didn't think this blessing was necessary.She is alone, and will always be so lonely, no one will re-enter her life, so how can there be happiness?

But she has no intention of sharing these unpleasant thoughts with Mr. Holmes, who is obviously suppressing his anger.

The latter got out of the car in heavy rain and opened a black umbrella amidst jostling by a group of raincoat-clad revelers.

Novia forgot to drive the car for a moment, she watched Mycroft and his younger brother finally stand under the same roof, first raised her chin to reprimand and taunt - this can be seen from the movements and mouth movements come out.And later, the elder brother and the younger brother compromised with each other, and Mycroft took the reluctant Sherlock, and the two of them held up the same umbrella and blended into the crowd.

Novia suddenly became less concerned with the secret of the black umbrella.

What must be summed up, when an umbrella is opened, it can protect the people you cherish from wind and rain.

Of course, the brothers who snatched umbrellas on New Year's Eve probably don't count.

Novia leaned on the leather car seat, stretched her waist, and felt that she should make up her mind to end her current life early.

She wants to open a sweet shop but can't start in London.
