[Comprehensive] Sherlock Holmes

026.

Jane sat alone on the living room floor, surrounded by a mess—the place where Sherlock and Wade had turned over, the blanket that was about to fall, the table legs that had been moved from their original positions, and scattered items.Sitting in the chaos, she glanced slightly at her ankle, which seemed to be swollen, accompanied by a slight pain - but her nerves were completely relaxed, and she finally felt that the tense atmosphere was over After the pressure, I was a little weak to calm down my violent heartbeat.

Everything was calm, she suddenly felt sore all over, the shoulder injury, the impact of shooting, the sore arm, the swollen ankle, the brain that was spinning at high speed and now finally stopped.

It all hit in an instant——she took a rough breath, but subconsciously clenched the gun tightly in her hand.

"Boom—" she turned around in vain.

The door was kicked open, thank God - a familiar figure.The police officer with a gun came in vigilantly, and saw Jian Ruo sitting on the floor.

"Hi, dear Officer Lestrade." She smiled slightly and waved to him.

"Jane!" He rushed over nervously, bent down to support her, "How are you?!" He asked her, while scanning the surroundings vigilantly, "I received your distress message— —”

"I'm fine——" Jian Ruo shrugged, and with the strength of Officer Lestrade, she stood up with the support of her uninjured foot, "Fortunately, you saw that text message."

Ever since she witnessed the tragic story of "handling the case alone and being arrested by Scotland Yard as a murderer" happened to Sherlock, Jane Ruo had a complete mind-she would report it before the two of them went to a certain place to handle the case. Give the general direction of where I'm going to Police Officer Lestrade—_(:з)∠)_It's better to have a third-person ID these days, so that I can help if something happens.

Naturally, this reliable police officer did not disappoint her, thanks to her old Logia keyboard phone!

Being able to send an SOS to a police friend with your finger in your pocket couldn't be smarter!

"I thought you wouldn't arrive so soon?" Jian Ruo was still holding the gun in her hand, "You know, Yorkshire is not very close to London." ——She was already prepared to delay the time, or Just give up hope that the police will arrive.

"—Actually, this is a coincidence." Lestrade was a little embarrassed, "Er—I accompanied my girlfriend home these few days, and she happened to live in Yorkshire, otherwise I wouldn't have come so soon .”

Jian Ruo was stunned for a moment, feeling a little complicated: "...Meet the parents? I mean, congratulations." She looked Lestrade up and down, feeling a little sad.

——The sadness of a single dog.

She paused for a moment, and suddenly realized that something was wrong. Logically speaking, shouldn't there be a large number of police officers arriving? Why is there still only Officer Lestrade alone after so long?

"...Are you the only one who rushed here?" She swallowed, her expression a little stiff.

"Yes. No warrants—" Lestrade was a little embarrassed. "Fortunately I know the head of the Yorkshire Police—I borrowed a police car from him, and it sounds scary anyway. of."

Although it was different from what she had imagined, Jian Ruo still had the bottom line in her heart: "I must praise you, police officer—you are really the light of the people!"

Lestrade was a little embarrassed, the two looked at each other and laughed at the same time.

Jian Ruo smiled, and suddenly remembered Wade and Sherlock who escaped over there. She thought that a large number of police officers could surround and arrest Mr. Wade, but now this plan cannot be realized...

Her expression changed, and she hurriedly urged Lestrade: "—Officer! You hurry up and help Sherlock! He went to hunt down the murderer alone, I'm afraid he alone—"

He was also injured a little bit, what if something happens to him!

Lestrade's face also changed when he heard that: "Where is it?"

Jian Ruo quickly showed him the way, and seeing Lestrade rushing over with a gun in hand, she slowly lowered her fingers in relief.

She felt relaxed for a while, and her body was a little limp.

Great—she thought quietly, just keep going—

"Hey, girl." A deep male voice sounded, and Jian Ruo suddenly raised her head——

It's Charlie Wade.

Bad luck - can't she let her rest for a while? ? ?

Her fragile nerves are about to collapse! !

He stood by the window, his deep eyes seemed to be tired, and he smiled slightly at this moment: "How can I neglect a beautiful lady?" Wade said so.

Jian Ruo raised the gun without hesitation, narrowed her eyes slightly, and stared at Charlie Wade.Fortunately, her left hand was not injured.

"I'd rather you snub me, Mr. Wade." Her face was expressionless.

"Mr. Wade? That's not me—" He seemed to think of something interesting, and the smile in his eyes deepened, "...Call me Antonio."

—That doesn't sound like an English name.

Jian Ruo feels that there is nothing to say about this kind of second-year illness - although she thinks second-year-old is cool, but this kind of middle-aged uncle stands in front of you and looks like second-year-old, and it is obviously a real... No. [-]. Murderer, no one has any extra favors, okay?

"—a very good name." Her expression remained unchanged, with a trace of indifference in her serious attitude, and she held the gun tightly in her hand, "What a pity, I thought you were outside—you could have seen me Another companion's—he's a police officer." She tried to imply that there was another officer here—and it would be nice if he got away with it.

"What are you testing? Dear? Do you think I'm afraid of the police officer?" He leaned over the window, easily turned in, and waited for it. "It's a pity, I guessed wrong."

Jian Ruo moved back subconsciously: "You'd better not come here——I don't want to kill people, but it doesn't mean I don't dare to kill people."

Wade, no—it should be Antonio, he tilted his head, and there was a kind of cold interest in his eyes, like a cat teasing a dying mouse, cold, cruel: "—interesting declaration. Why don't you Would you like to get closer to me? Keeping a distance is not suitable for enhancing the relationship between us."

"Why should I increase the relationship between us?" Jian Ruo felt that it was ridiculous and ridiculous, "If I were you, I would leave here far away now instead of finding an irrelevant person to discuss some emotional topics. Yes As far as you are concerned, is this meaningless thing more important than your own life?"

"My life is important." He looked a little casual, as if he was sure that Jane would not shoot, "but it's not my life. I haven't met anyone who can't be under the influence of my hypnosis for a long time, good girl— —” He twitched the corners of his mouth, “If you were me, you would understand how boring God’s life is—”

--here we go again.Jian Ruo twitched the corner of her mouth.Her hands are almost stiff, anyway, the longer the time, the more unfavorable she is, in case Sherlock and the others have not rushed over, but she has no strength, or is injured by the recoil after a single shot - this lunatic will treat her The greater the threat—

She quickly flashed through the emergency measures in her mind, but at the next moment she saw Antonio moving quickly to this side while her eyes were wandering.

Jian Ruo was horrified for a moment, and pressed the trigger without hesitation.

"Boom-" sound.

I don't know if it was Jian Ruo's illusion, but she seemed to hear the sound of bullets piercing flesh and blood clearly.

Although this feeling is cruel, it is not enough to make her completely care about——

She cares more about whether this blow can protect herself.

Jian Ruo's facial expression changed drastically, Antonio stopped a few meters away, and she couldn't even determine where he hit.At this moment she wished she had hit the nail on the head, that Antonio could die instantly—

ended.

The handsome man seemed to want to look down at the place where he was shot in the chest, but in the end he could only grin slowly, showing that kind of evil predatory smile to Jian Ruo, keeping his hands stretched forward , as if he was about to reach it but failed to reach it, which made his eyes look like a beast was hiding in his eyes. Even the moment before he died, what he missed was the prey he didn't get——

There is no resentment, but it is more terrifying than resentment.

He fell.

Death is so close to Jane.

Jian Ruo let go of the hand holding the gun weakly, looked at the ceiling above her head, and panted heavily. This feeling was very strange, like happy, sad, proud, and bewildered. Her emotions were mixed together, making her face look slightly weird.

Jian Ruo slowly grinned in this long silence and weird atmosphere, she was trembling silently, laughing while trembling, her brain had gone blank, but the nerves that controlled everything were inexplicably Prompting her to laugh, Jian Ruo's eyes were silent and brilliant light, blooming in an instant, with a trace of fanaticism that no one noticed - she laughed silently and trembled like this, as if she was lucky for the rest of her life after a catastrophe, and seemed to be a The triumph of hitting the target——Jian Ruo even gradually laughed——

She finally stopped.

She thought about what she had done in a daze, and looked at the hand hanging by her side that had lost all strength and even lost consciousness.

—no blood.

Jian Ruo lowered her head, her black hair covering her face.

Why do people kill people?

For pleasure?For profit?

Or... for self-defense?

She heard hurried footsteps, heard the sound of police sirens in the distance, and the scenery outside the window was beautiful. Yorkshire at the end of October was still sunny, and she seemed to be able to hear birds chirping. The world seemed to be her illusion. A big dream, will not wake up.

The door was opened, and Sherlock and Lestrade appeared at the door one after the other.

"...Jane!" Lestrade nervously glanced at the corpse on the ground, and called Jian Ruo's name with some concern.

Sherlock leaned on the door rail with one hand, frowning slightly.

Not long after he chased him out, he discovered something was wrong, but it was already too late, and he had already spent a lot of time judging Wade's behavior pattern--Wade was obviously not a person with normal logic, and he really didn't expect that Wade would Immediately turn back and attack Jian Ruo——

Plus Lestrade...

He pursed the corners of his lips, cursed in a low voice with some dissatisfaction, and finally took a step forward, approaching Jian Ruo: "Jane—"

He paused.

Jian Ruo raised her head slowly, the Asian face that had been remembered by him showed a kind of helplessness and fear that had never been seen before——

Tears kept rolling down, and she seemed to be unaware of it, sobbing, her mouth trembling silently, her eyes gleaming, silently.

"...I'm so scared...Sherlock—I killed someone..."
