Josie, who hung up the phone, stood leaning against the door of the restaurant, surrounded by more and more people entering the restaurant. The sun began to set early at five o'clock in February, and the orange-red sunset glow in the sky Like a beautiful oil painting, the roller coaster and Ferris wheel standing in the distance are like a scene in the painting, complementing each other.Sherlock left Mycroft, who was still sitting on the seat busy arranging the work of his subordinates, and walked out.
"Did Mycroft tell you why he hasn't started to attack Adrian yet?" Josie turned her head to look at Sherlock who was standing beside her. Literally.
"It's not difficult to guess that Adrian either has the handle of the government or something that Mycroft needs. The former is more likely, otherwise Mycroft will go to him to cooperate." After a pause, Xia Locke also turned his head to meet Josie's eyes, "A while ago, I went to the Middle East..."
"I know, and I also know what you are going to do." Josie put her hands in her coat pockets, and as soon as the sun set, the temperature dropped a lot.
As expected, Sherlock just continued: "That woman is a witness, and she can't die until the Canadian police erase your name from the file."
Josie was stunned by Sherlock's words, but she laughed again after a while, her beautiful sky blue eyes reflected the warm orange light from the sky, "Sherlock, I thought you knew, I don't care about this. "
"I know, but someone cares." Josie's parents would care. No parent in the world would want their child to be framed as a murderer and put in the police file.
Josie's gaze was still looking ahead. She quietly stretched out her right hand that was in the coat pocket, then put it into Sherlock's left coat pocket, and held the other's hand in the pocket. Sherlock looked at She, "I have cold hands," Josie explained casually, and then seemed dissatisfied with the other party's expression, "Don't show that expression, it's rare for you to show a human touch that doesn't fit a high-functioning antisocial personality, don't spoil the atmosphere."
Sherlock was stunned for a moment, and then he held the hand of the person next to him in his pocket very cooperatively. Josie couldn't help laughing, "Sherlock, do you want to hear the story of the original me?"
The latter didn't speak, but met Josie's eyes, as if they were connected with each other. Josie said slowly as if she had already got a positive answer: "When I came to this world, I was already living in the original world. 25 for six years, so, when I was young, I actually knew everything, and I could understand everything you told me," Sherlock's slightly surprised expression made Josie smile, "In the original In the world, I am a Chinese who has studied in the UK for 13 years, which is why my Chinese is so good that I don’t even have an accent problem. I was an architect at that time, and I just graduated from school For two years, I have done two good design projects with the leader of the group. I really like this job, so I chose to be an architect without thinking about it after I came to this world. It's amazing, relying on the knowledge I have learned for several years, I can do better than in the original world."
The broken hair on Josie's forehead fluttered in front of her eyes with the cold wind that was approaching at night, but it did not prevent her from looking straight ahead, "In the original world, my parents were businessmen, and their careers were very successful. After I was six or seven years old, I hardly sat around and had dinner with them. Do you know that in China, we have a very grand festival every year called Spring Festival, just like Christmas in Western countries , This is a festival for family reunion. Every Spring Festival happens to be the time when the school is on winter vacation. The driver of the family drives a car worth millions to pick me up from the boarding school. Every time I pass by that building When I was in other people's houses, I looked at the lights inside and wondered if they were having a family gathering to celebrate the festival? Then I came to school in the UK, and I still remember that there was a class that happened to talk about various countries I am the only Chinese in the class. The teacher asked me to share with my classmates what Chinese people do to celebrate the festival. I sat in my seat for a long time in silence, and then celebrated my neighbors. I talked about what I did during the Spring Festival, and everyone thought it was very interesting, but only I knew that I didn’t even spend much of the Spring Festival, how ridiculous.”
Sherlock turned his head and looked at the people around him. The cold wind made Josie's nose a little red. She pursed her lips, as if she didn't notice that the people around her were looking at her, and continued: "I've always kept all the memories, so with Ellen and Carly, I never really had to accept in my heart that they were my biological parents, I mean, I knew they were the biological parents of this body, But... But in my heart, I would prefer to regard them as important people rather than parents. They love me very much. To them, I am their biological daughter. My thoughts are for them who are kept in the dark It's unfair, I admit that I don't know how to love my parents, let alone how to express them, because my original parents have wiped out my love for them and the nature of family affection, but no matter what, I don't want Alan If there is any danger with Carly, I hope they are safe, healthy and happy, just like a daughter wishes her parents are well." Josie looked at Sherlock, her sky-blue eyes misted, "Sherlock, I I want to save my father."
"You will." Josie responded with a firm and deep voice, like an oath, reassuring.
The young boy wearing the waiter uniform of the themed restaurant looked at the time displayed on the wall, bypassed the crowd of tourists who came for dinner, and walked through a dark corridor. He stopped outside the private room at the end of the corridor, stretched out his hand and knocked regularly He knocked on the door three times, and without waiting for a sound from inside, he whispered outside the door: "Sir, it's already six o'clock, do you need to serve the dinner you ordered?"
Adrian, who was staring at the computer screen in front of him in the private room, suddenly raised his head and happily replied: "Oh! Yes! Yes! Serve it up!"
The waiter outside the door left after getting the answer, and Adrian turned to look at Annabelle who was sitting beside him, "Did you hear that? This will be my last dinner in this world, Artemis, how wonderful it is!" The only regret is that this is just a theme restaurant in an amusement park...but it's okay...it's okay," Adrian's eyes were full of excitement, "because when I return to the world that originally belonged to me, I will Then I can taste the food that I dream of the most, and everything that belongs to me."
"Congratulations, sir, this world also has everything that belongs to you."
However, Annabelle's words made Adrian, who was originally in high spirits, turn black all of a sudden, "This world? Oh no, no! This world doesn't have my stuff, and the current ones are just Margaret McCulla's." It’s left by the stupid bitch, she owes it to me, I don’t care for these things, what I really have, in another world,” Adrian leaned closer to Annabelle, looking at the latter’s young face, “You really Make me sad, after so many years, have you forgotten what I said? Why are you still so willful? Put away the unwillingness in your eyes, Annabelle. "
"..." Annabelle let go of her lower lip that was bitten by her white teeth, and the unwillingness in her eyes was forced back, "I see, sir."
"Good girl," Adrian moved his finger on the keyboard of the laptop, and the control system of the amusement park roller coaster appeared on the screen, "Now it's time for you to act, let Alan Jonathan ride on the roller coaster, It’s fine for him to go up alone, and other irrelevant ants also sit up, ah, by the way, don’t let the people under the government officials of the Holmes family find out, that’s no fun.”
A man in a gray coat and a black hat came out of the bathroom. The tourists who came and went did not notice that he was inappropriately integrated. He walked to the roller coaster in the deepest part of the amusement park like an ordinary tourist. Perhaps it was almost At night, there were very few people queuing in front of the roller coaster. The man walked to the end of the line. When he reached him, there was no one behind and the people in front were just enough to sit. The staff who were in a hurry to get off work had to arrange him to sit alone.
"Sir, are you sure you still want to sit? You are the only one left in line. If you want to sit, you can only sit by yourself." The girl in the uniform of the amusement park staff confirmed again.
Ellen Jonathan nodded with empty eyes, "Yes."
"Okay, then come in here and wait." The girl indicated a position, and the last batch of tourists who had just finished riding the roller coaster got off the car one after another. Under the guidance of the girl, Allen got on the roller coaster, "Lift up the roller coaster." Just lift the bar in front of you to make sure it won't come loose."
After completing the safety confirmation work, the girl signaled her colleagues in the operating room to press the start button, and the roller coaster drove the only passenger on the car to high altitude.
Adrian looked at the movement displayed on the laptop screen, and his left index finger rested on the top of the Enter key, "You can leave his brain, Artemis, come and help me choose where to stop Alright... Ah! How about the highest point here?" He pressed the enter key without waiting for the people around him to respond, and the roller coaster on the other side of the amusement park came to an abrupt stop in mid-air with his fingertips falling. "It's time to give dear Josie a call."
As Adrian spoke, he picked up the mobile phone at hand and dialed Josie's number. Josie, who was standing at the door of the restaurant with Sherlock, felt the vibration of the mobile phone in her pocket, took it out and pressed the connect button.
"My dearest Josie! Afternoon... Oh no, good evening!"
Josie turned her head and mouthed Sherlock, who immediately took out her phone.
"It's almost 06:30, are there any new ways to play?" Josie turned and glanced at the clock on the restaurant wall.
"I was a little worried that you would not find a good spot, but now I am not worried, my dear Josie, you have found yourself a perfect viewing spot."
"what……"
"Raise your head and look ahead, there is a surprise I prepared for you."
Josie followed the instructions on the phone and looked over. After the sun had completely set, only the moon glowed with a faint white light in the night sky. The street lights and decorative lights in the amusement park were turned on one after another, and the roller coaster that was supposed to be running was shining bright red. The light stopped in mid-air, and Josie couldn't recognize the person above it because it was too far away, but her intuition told her that the answer must be the last thing she wanted to hear.
"Guess who's up there?"
The voice on the phone was pleasant, but Josie no longer had the heart to express her dislike for the voice, "It's... my father."
"Bingo!" Adrian took a sip from his glass, "He has a miniature bomb implanted in his fingertips, I know you know what to do."
Josie's eyes were red, staring fixedly at the roller coaster parked at the highest point in midair, "You scum..."
"I told you how to save him, Josie, I told you," Adrian put down the glass in his hand, "Besides, he is not your biological father at all, why bother to curse at me because of him? ?Stay by my side and I can give you more, including love."
Josie's knuckles holding the phone turned white, and the person on the other end of the phone continued to say, "I don't have much time for you, get ready to make a decision."
The phone was hung up by Adrian in the end, and the location on Sherlock's phone finally stopped at the amusement park, but the specific location could not be determined.Mycroft walked out of the restaurant with an uneasy expression on his face.
"The control system of the roller coaster has been hacked and malfunctioned. It will not be repaired in a while," Mycroft looked at Josie, "Mr. Jonathan has a bomb strapped to him, right?" Mycroft always acts cautiously, considering With this possibility, he didn't immediately ask his men to get on the roller coaster to rescue him.
Josie nodded, "The fingertips have been implanted with miniature bombs. On the bright side, we are very passive and can't do anything at all."
"Is there anything that can't be done?" A familiar voice came from behind, accompanied by the sound of the machine turning off, "I'm not late, am I? The damn air traffic control has been delayed for a long time, otherwise I would have arrived long ago , is there anything I can do for you?"
After hearing the voice, Josie turned around, looked at the red iron man walking towards them, and shouted in surprise: "Tony?!"
The author has something to say: The small theater——
Tony: I always come last.
Josie: It’s enough to look good. Look at the circle behind you who is crazy about you...
Sherlock: They are all a group of children with poor IQ.
Tony: ...Did you provoke you?
Sherlock: Oh, no, it's habitual to hate people.
Josie: ...
Tony: …
"Did Mycroft tell you why he hasn't started to attack Adrian yet?" Josie turned her head to look at Sherlock who was standing beside her. Literally.
"It's not difficult to guess that Adrian either has the handle of the government or something that Mycroft needs. The former is more likely, otherwise Mycroft will go to him to cooperate." After a pause, Xia Locke also turned his head to meet Josie's eyes, "A while ago, I went to the Middle East..."
