[Comprehensive] They forced me to die

Chapter 50 About Compromise

The streets of London began to drizzle lightly. Pedestrians on the road quickened their pace, and from time to time they could see a few people running in the rain.

"You intend to stay here?"

Mycroft has a high nose bridge and deep eye sockets. Even if the face has too much fat, it can't hide the more profound facial features of Westerners.

His hairline is V-shaped, and the hard work and various pressures in life have caused some hair loss.

"Why not?"

Alice's hand holding the water glass couldn't help but tighten.

He will always use the face of a superior person to talk to others, calmly, Alice stopped her trembling body.

"Do you still want to count on that fellow Sherlock to support you?"

When Mycroft said this, the corners of his mouth curled up slightly, and his light blue eyes were like a hunting eagle, playing tricks on his clumsy prey.

Alice curled her lips, but she couldn't refute Mycroft's words.

In fact, if the tsundere detective hadn't been secretly funded by his "great" brother, he would probably have to sleep on the streets of London.

She still said angrily, "I can work by myself."

Even if she understands that she has no certainty that she can support herself.

She was terrified in her heart, she couldn't see her future, and everything she faced now showed her insignificance.

When she faced the man in front of her, there seemed to be an indescribable feeling fermenting.

"If you promise me three conditions, I will go back."

After being silent for a while, Alice said slowly, and she put the empty water glass in her hand back on the table again.

"Alice, you don't seem to be qualified to negotiate with me."

There was a mocking smile on the corner of Mycroft's mouth, but it was like a sigh.

"Still a child."

Looking at Alice's disappointed face, Mycroft turned his gaze out of the window.At this time, it was raining more and more in London.

Sometimes, people are like this, the more they care about the person, the less able to express their feelings.

Maybe there are thousands of feelings between them that they want to convey, but there are also thousands of obstacles that drive their distance farther and farther.

"You know, I have ten thousand ways to get you back."

"I know."

"You're pushing me, Alice."

Mycroft looked at her with a smile, as if they were just chatting about the weather in London.

What a relaxed tone.

"Mycroft, don't threaten me there."

She is a stubborn and willful child, even if she knows it is wrong, she will not compromise in her heart.

Alice is like that.

So is she wrong?

Even sometimes she doesn't understand what is right and what is wrong, she has been living in a world called "one person", that world never restrains her, she is free, even if her body is trapped In the old castle, in the mental hospital, even if her soul is bound in the body.

Even if she knew that without a normal education, it would be difficult for her to survive alone in this world. If one day McCoff really gave up on her, she would be nothing.

But is it because of this that one should constantly please others?

No, just because she was like this made her unable to compromise.

She felt that once she compromised, it seemed that she had defeated herself. What was the difference between that and Alice locked in the castle?

Once a person compromises, it is like making a deal with the devil. You will sink deeper and deeper, just like dominoes. Whenever you encounter any difficulties, you will compromise, and you will continue to compromise until you lose yourself.

Alice narrowed her eyes, and suddenly laughed out loud, but this made the person in front of her frown.

This may be a contest.

"Mycroft, I will never be what you want me to be."

McCoff looked deeply at the emotionally agitated younger sister in front of him, didn't say anything else, and when a certain inspector finally bought the dinner, he nodded to him and left.

The atmosphere was as awkward as ever.

"You don't seem to be having a very pleasant chat."

Alice didn't answer him, and suddenly lost her appetite looking at the exquisite takeaway on the table.

She heard the sound of the car engine starting downstairs, and looked out the window at London, which was still raining, and she didn't know what she was thinking.

She has been waiting for an opportunity, she knows that McCoff is hiding a secret, that secret is closely related to her, and this secret will one day be revealed.

And she, a wayward person, will be the one to uncover the truth.
