Countdown all over the world

Pier No. [-] has always been crowded with people, and it is the most important transit point for going out to sea.

It is no exaggeration to say that at least one-third of the goods transported by water every day flow into the city from here.

Therefore, when the news came out, it can be said that it caused an uproar.

The ship going out from the third pier exploded!

The boy selling newspapers on the street was very grateful for such news.Although he didn't know why this happened, it almost doubled his earnings today.

That alone was enough to excite him.

"Sir, do you buy a newspaper?" the boy asked, "There was a serious accident at Pier No. [-], the headline on the front page!"

Mycroft looked at the subordinates around him and nodded slightly.

The boy took the coins, put down a newspaper, and left happily.

McCoff frowned and looked at the information in the newspaper: "I thought, you have already dealt with it? Why is it still leaking out today!"

Such a sensational news got everyone's attention precisely because of the importance of Pier No. [-].After all, if it is said that everyone eats and wears daily, there is a problem with the source terminal.This is a big event that worries every citizen.

The person standing next to McCoff lowered his head: "I have talked with the newspaper yesterday, and most of them are willing to cooperate. Even if there are a small number, I promise to consider the sentence."

Of course he knew how important such a news blockade was.When everyone does not know the specific situation, it is the most terrible thing to rashly alarm the masses.

Frightened crowds, might do things.It may be much more terrifying than this incident itself.

Mycroft's cane tapped the ground.The rainy weather made the ground very muddy and covered with water vapor.

"Mr. Holmes." The subordinate said tentatively.

Mycroft turned his head and glanced at him: "Say."

The subordinate was terrified by that look, but he didn't dare to hide the news because of the importance of it.He swallowed, and said with a little trepidation: "Your brother has something to ask you."

At the moment of the explosion, Holmes thought he would end like this.

It is said that at the last moment, the speed of life will slow down to an unimaginable speed.Holmes could even see the wire being triggered by the lifted box, setting off what was buried beneath.

A huge flame suddenly appeared in front of his eyes, illuminating this supposedly dark cabin extremely brightly.

"What a pity," thought Holmes.

He always felt that he would stop in a certain adventure.This is what is bound to happen, and Holmes has long been prepared.

In his plans, however, it would be a remarkable expedition.It will be a complex process designed against him by a sophisticated opponent.

Even the final result, Holmes has imagined.

Perhaps, jumping down from a wonderful waterfall will be a beautiful ending?

perish together.

Our great detective Mr. Holmes, in the process of fighting criminals, sacrificed his life for righteousness.For the safety of the people, he gave up his life!

Sherlock Holmes had even imagined the headlines of newspaper headlines.

In the firelight, Holmes dropped the box in his arms, thinking a little helplessly, such an ending would be too embarrassing.

He looked at Annie at the side, and for some reason he felt a little stuffy in his chest.

During this period of time, Holmes always felt that when he saw Anne, his body was a little strange.Redness at the tips of the ears and a hot head are the norm.But some time ago, even the heartbeat couldn't help speeding up.

He wanted to make a good guess...

But now it seems that there is no time.

Holmes felt very sorry.

It would be great if I didn't come with Annie when I came this time.Holmes thought to himself, in that case, at least Anne could still sit down with little Rebecca in Baker Street.

A stuffy and slightly painful feeling lingered in Holmes' chest.Let him no longer have cranky mood.

It seems that a long time has passed, but the above complicated process is just a blink of an eye.

Before Anne saw the fire, she accidentally glanced over Holmes' head.

In just an instant, the string of question marks disappeared.

Instead, there is a frighteningly short number.

5 seconds.

Anne's heart sank, and she saw the box that Holmes had lifted up.Even, when he couldn't see whether it was an illusion, he felt something unusual under the box.

But before she could figure it out, she jumped out.

Before falling on Holmes, Anne unexpectedly saw that the question mark above Holmes' head appeared again.

She felt a little bit of stability in her heart, and she actually felt a little bit of joy and peace of mind about this string of familiar question marks.

The flames and the huge heat wave came from behind, making Annie feel so painful that she was about to lose consciousness in an instant.

However, in the second before she fainted, Annie was still a little bit behind-the-scenes—how could she be so brave?Can you rush out to save people?

Sherlock, it looks like I've fallen for it.thought Annie.

Holmes's calm heartbeat stopped for a moment when he saw Annie rushing towards him.

The explosion was not violent and ended quickly.Even Watson, who was outside the cabin, did not suffer any huge and substantial injuries.It was just that he was dizzy from the impact of the air wave.

This is a warning.

Warning from Moriarty.

Holmes hugged Annie who was on his body, and the wet touch in his hands made his eyes bloodshot.

is blood.

Annie's back was covered in blood.

Holmes had never felt so disturbed.Even in the last moment, when I realized that I might end like this, I was never so nervous.

He held his breath and gently hugged Annie.Carefully avoiding the wound on her back.

"Watson!" he cried.

Watson, who was fainted by the blast for a while, was suddenly shaken by Holmes, and he was a little dizzy.As soon as he opened his eyes, he saw his friend losing his composure.

Watson had never seen such a flustered and completely lost composure.

In the arms of Holmes, holding the unconscious Anne.And her back was covered in blood.

……

When Darren got the news, Annie had already completed the operation and was in a coma after the operation.

When he felt the hospital, he saw Holmes and Watson standing outside in bandages.Without saying a word, Darren's fist landed on Holmes' head.

"You wait for me!" He shouted angrily, and hurried into the ward.

Annie's life is not in danger.It's just that the back was affected by the fragments of the explosion, and the wound looked quite scary.

If it wasn't for Moriarty, he didn't intend to kill Holmes at all.Such a short distance, directly facing the center of the explosion.

Darren couldn't imagine that if it was a real explosion, he might go directly to the police station to claim the body.Just thinking about it like this made him feel so painful that it was hard to breathe.

He stood quietly beside Annie's hospital bed, trying to touch her sleepy face with his hands.But he was worried that his own strength would make Annie feel pain in a coma.

It stayed in mid-air stiffly, and then retracted.

"It's a good thing you're alright, it's a good thing you're alright..." Darren couldn't help muttering.

To be alive is the greatest luck at this moment.Darren closed his eyes so that the turbulent emotion would sink and not explode all at once.

Scared Annie in front of her.Even if she is still in a coma, it won't work.

Darren pursed his lips, and looked at Annie's calm appearance again, feeling at ease as if he had finally found a foothold.Turning around and going out, he needed to ask Annie about the specific situation.

God knows, when he heard the news, his whole body seemed to be thrown into the air at once.There are no footholds, no gravity, no handrails.Just hanging like this, floating.It was as if instinct led him all the way to the hospital.

He just didn't see Annie for two days, just two days!

How could such a terrible thing happen!

Darren thought, with a murderous look in his eyes.

"The patient's condition is not bad, not life-threatening. But there is some mud in the wound, and the scratch is too deep. I'm afraid her back..." The doctor's meaning is self-evident.

However, these things are particularly unimportant under the safety of Anne's life.

Darren shook the doctor's hand and thanked him very seriously.

The doctor shook his head, pushed the glasses on his nose, and smiled earnestly: "You know, this is my job."

Darren looked at the doctor's glasses, and suddenly he was taken aback for what he saw.He paused, then smiled self-deprecatingly, and let go of his hand.

"I still have to thank you." He restrained his emotions, turned and walked out the door.

Watson stood beside Holmes, rubbing the bruise on the back of his head in pain.He didn't know how to comfort him.This was the first time he saw Sherlock, who lost his composure, hugging Annie.

If Holmes hadn't discovered the clues of the explosion in the end, Watson could hardly imagine what Mr. Detective would do at that time.

After all, Anne looked unconscious at the time, covered in blood.Even he was shocked.

"Holmes!" Darren's voice made Watson stand up suddenly.

He watched Darren approaching warily, and put down his hand rubbing his head.That nervous look, as if if Darren punches Holmes again, Watson will immediately go to beat him.

On the contrary, Darren glanced at the drowsy Annie and spoke calmly.

"If you're doing Anne's best, don't get her into trouble anymore. OK?"
