Jane watched with relish (?) and forgot the time for a moment, and she didn't look at the small pocket watch until Mycroft reminded her.

"It's already this time!" Jane exclaimed in surprise, "Mrs. Olivia is going to talk about me again."

I have to go back, but Jane is still reluctant to part, "Are these books left like this?"

"Don't worry, someone will come to clean it up." Mycroft quietly stuffed the wrapping paper into his pocket.

It wasn't until they got to the door that Mycroft pulled the bell cord, and Jane hadn't noticed this behind the door until now.

"Someone will come up and clean it up soon," said Mycroft, "but if you don't want to be seen, we'd better go now."

"Oh, let's go then." Of course Jane didn't want to become a special person in the eyes of others.

However, Jane was also very excited along the way. For a while, she was annoyed that she had spent so much time on the reference book, and for a while, she felt that the reference book was also very exquisite, and there were all kinds of realistic illustrations, and for a while, she asked Mycroft Can I go again next time, and so on.

Of course, Mycroft would not refuse. In fact, he didn't like to run around. He took the opportunity to invite Jane to come again in a few days, and of course Jane agreed.The two chatted happily, from the book just now to other books, from books to life, from Cambridge to London...

Jane went to read books with Mycroft enthusiastically, and the regular Hogwarts patrons were the first to notice her absent-mindedness.

"What's up with your pastry chef? Have you hit your wife?" a regular customer asks Ben.

"What? She's fine." Ben wondered.

"Then why are the new snacks selling so fast during this period? I used to be able to buy them in the afternoon, but now I can't buy them at noon."

Ben rubbed his head. It turned out that Miss Bennet was the one to take the blame. He couldn't say that during this time Miss Bennet went out on dates frequently and spent less time in the store.

"Don't say that, sir, I don't beat my wife." Ben said with a good temper, "And the desserts in our store are all delicious, otherwise they wouldn't be sold out, right? Please take a look at today's cake rolls. It's meat floss, and it's the salty taste you like."

Forget about the other guests, Sherlock was very angry.Usually he came two or three times a week, and Jane sat in front of the seat at the gate of Hogwarts every time, but he came every other day for the past seven days, but he didn't meet Jane three times, what a fat thing!

Even though we used to be friends who played games together, you actually abandoned me?

Sherlock stuffed the cake into his mouth angrily, and chewed it in a big mouthful without looking like it.

After adding some sugar, Sherlock felt that his brain was overwhelmed. He discovered some interesting things before and devoted himself to it for a few days, but when he came back to Hogwarts, he found that something was wrong.

Jane is not a person who likes to wander around by herself, so... is this someone who is pursuing her and she is also interested in him?

Sherlock asked for a glass of water, cleared his mouth and calmly analyzed it.He thought of his stupid brother, who most likely liked Jane, but he didn't say anything, knowing how many love rivals he drove away for his brother by staying here.It would be fine if the two were close, but now one is in Cambridge and the other is in London, and they usually write letters... What's the use of that?Neither dry nor crisp.

Sherlock sat in Hogwarts and slandered his brother, but he didn't know that Mycroft was afraid that he would think of the truth, so he never told him about his coming to Cambridge.Previously, Mycroft's visit also identified the timing of Sherlock's absence, and he also asked Professor Beckham not to tell Sherlock about his visit.

So Sherlock was still worried that his brother would have a strong rival in love again, but he didn't know that this "rival in love" was actually Mycroft himself.

Passing by Hogwarts, Master Meow proclaimed himself: Stupid human being? = ̄ω ̄=

Jane went to a play with Mycroft after several visits to the library.On the contrary, Mrs. Wood was originally opposed to it at first, and she didn't know what Mycroft said to her. Later, when Mycroft asked Jane out again, she didn't object much, let alone asked Dwyer to go with him.

The weather was good when I went out today, blue sky and white clouds, it seemed to be a sunny day.Now that the temperature is comfortable, Jane put on a thin shawl and brought a parasol to go to have lunch with Mycroft. After thinking about it, she found out the small hair accessory that Mycroft gave as a thank you gift to wear. on the head.

Unexpectedly, as soon as they arrived at the restaurant, it suddenly rained heavily outside. Mycroft helped Jane to walk a few steps quickly so as not to get wet.

"Oh my god, it's raining so much." Jane touched her hair, it was a little wet, and the corners of her skirt were also a little wet, making it uncomfortable to walk.

"Otherwise, how can we say that the world is unpredictable." Mycroft signaled to the waiter who came forward to serve that he had a fixed seat, and then took out his handkerchief and handed it to Jane.

"Thank you." Jane was not polite. She took the handkerchief and wiped her face lightly. There was a faint smell of perfume and tobacco on the handkerchief.

The two of them were led by the waiter to the seat that Mycroft had reserved in advance. Originally, the place was supposed to be well lit, but the heavy rain outside made it look a bit cold instead.

"A change of place?" asked Mycroft.

"No, no, I think it's fine." Jane said, although it seemed warm inside, but the light was darker, not as good as here.

After Jane sat down and tidied up for a while, she suddenly saw that Mycroft had been looking at her. "What?" Jane asked.

Mycroft settled himself and said: "I'm leaving, Jane, I must go back to London."

"What!" Jane was stunned for a moment. She remembered that Mycroft was only here for business and vacation, and she had so much fun recently that she forgot that Mycroft would not stay in Cambridge forever.

"When... are you leaving?" Jane felt that her mood was as gloomy as the weather outside.

"Perhaps in a few days, about Toby." Mycroft paused, so that Jane could remember who Toby was. "I have already spoken to Mrs. Wood, and she is willing to provide the boy with a small room, Let him follow you from now on?"

Jane thought about it, and thought there was nothing wrong with it, but... "Does he know his background?"

"I don't think he needs to know who his father is for the time being." Mycroft said helplessly, "I'll get rid of that guy first."

"Uh...Okay." Jane couldn't say that she thought this was such a scumbag as a father.

"Jane, do you still remember that I asked you a very important question in Longbourne, and you said that you would consider it... have you considered it now?" Mycroft asked Jane.

After spending this period of time together, Mycroft was convinced that Jane had the same feelings for him as he did, and he thought it would be natural to ask this question again now.However, Mycroft found that Jane's expression was different from what he thought, at least there were no emotions such as joy, shyness, and jumping. On the contrary, Jane became so calm after hearing this question. She seemed to have been prepared for a long time. answered.

"The love and marriage that Sherlock Holmes pursues are different from others. The more we demand of our partners, the more respect and price we should pay for it." Mr. Holmes once said to Mycroft.

So seeing Jane's expression like this, Mycroft was fully prepared for any difficult questions Jane had.

"Have you really thought it through, Mycroft?" Jane's question made Mycroft laugh. "Of course, I thought I'd answered your question already," said Mycroft.

"But you are the eldest son, Viscount Holmes..."

"Of course my father has no objection. I've consulted him on this point. Ah, ah, I mean, you're not the type to think we're not suitable because of these small titles, are you?"

"Of course not because of that."

"That's good."

Mycroft heaved a sigh of relief. Although the class rules have long been broken, and marriages between nobles and commoners have become the norm, there are always people who stick to the rules and oppose it. He also feels that Jane is not this kind of person, but... why is she Still hesitating?

Although marriages between nobles and commoners are the norm now, they are all a combination of status and money. One plus one equals two. What about her and Mycroft?Zero plus two equals two?Oh, it's really balanced... what a ghost!

Jane sighed, thinking that Mycroft was really clever, and she was confused for a moment, so she had to make her words clearer.

"Mycroft, this is not a well-matched marriage." As Jane said, her heart moved. Her sister Elizabeth was world-famous for her love, but she was timid and shy in her two lives... Jane suddenly felt a little emotional, probably only A real girl like Elizabeth will bravely throw herself into marriage because of love, while an old aunt like her will only consider more realistic issues.

"I don't think it's a well-matched marriage." Mycroft leaned forward, determined to find out what was wrong. "I love you, Jane, and I'm absolutely sure of that. I don't think you My family is an obstacle to marriage, because I have never thought about getting any benefits from marriage. The place where we two are most compatible is here." He pointed to the mind, "Your mind is worthy of my intelligence, isn't it? ? Oh, of course, and your beautiful face, you are the cutest and smartest girl I have ever seen, you shouldn't doubt my love for you. "

Mycroft had both Holmes' cleverness and a politician's thick skin for the moment.

Jane sighed, "I've never doubted your feelings, Mycroft, but how long can your feelings last? If you don't love me anymore, what should I do then?"

At this moment, Mycroft should have promised that his love would last forever... Men say that when they propose marriage, but Mycroft didn't. He suddenly realized the source of Jane's insecurity with Sherlock Holmes's desire to survive If it weren't for the fact that he himself was in the middle of the matter, he should have discovered it earlier.

This is a life-and-death question, and whether you answer it well or not is related to whether you will be single forever.

But Mycroft already had the answer in his mind.

Jane is too smart, no matter what she does, she has enough confidence to never doubt herself, but when she meets him, Mycroft, she hesitates and lingers, and her heart is full of insecurities. His performance?

Mycroft: Hey hey hey hey hey~~~~︿( ̄︶ ̄)︿

Mycroft was afraid that Jane would discover his joy, so he couldn't help bubbling from the bottom of his heart, but he didn't show it at all.

"We can sign a prenuptial agreement." Mycroft tapped the table lightly, "As long as we get married, you can control all my properties, and your signature will be as valid as mine, even if the bill is in your name , and I don’t need to look at it. Even in the future, I mean if, I firmly believe that this is impossible, our marriage exists in name only, and the agreement is still valid.”

Jane stared at Mycroft for a full minute before saying, "Are you kidding me?"

"Of course not." Mycroft was relieved, he had the feeling that he had finally taken the matter that had disturbed him into his hands, and this time Jane had no other reason to refuse.

The author has something to say: Mycroft: Is that why you slept in the study today Father?

Mr. Holmes: "..." Get lost, you boy!
