On this day, Clara's friend Louise came to visit her in the store. When the two were chatting happily, a guest interrupted the pleasant conversation.

"Ma'am, I want a glass of lemon juice without water."

Louise: "..." Huh?What? ? ?

"Ok."

Not as stunned as Louise, Clara took out two lemons from the cupboard and handed them to the visitor. After collecting the money, she continued to sit in the room and excitedly gossip with her friend Louise: "You mean Peter? With his roommates! Gosh, I've seen problems with them since college!"

"They do have a problem," Louise agreed, and then wondered, "But, Clara, are all the products your customers want so perverted? Also, is there really anything in the cupboard? Lemons can Get it out of there!"

"Oh, not that amazing." Clara blinked. "I just happen to know what they need."

Louise asked curiously, "How did you do that?"

"Before I opened the shop here," Clara said, "I investigated every resident on this cross street, and I know their preferences, so I can prepare everything they need in advance."

"I don't live here, how did you get the 230 dead flies you prepared for me?" A voice came from the door.

Upon hearing the voice, Clara smiled, happily went up to Louise, and introduced to Louise, "This is Sherlock Holmes, my boyfriend."

"Hello, Mr. Holmes, I'm Louise Eyre." Louise said hello politely, then tilted her head and asked Clara in doubt, "Honey, when you called me yesterday, you still said You just confirmed your relationship with a lawyer named Winslow..."

Clara held Sherlock's arm: "Oh, I unilaterally broke up with Winslow after hearing Sherlock's heart-warming voice 30 seconds ago."

"Then you can unilaterally reconcile with Mr. Winslow now," Sherlock pulled his arm out, took another big step back, nodded and smiled at Louise, and then said to the proprietress who was pouting unhappy : "Clara, do you have any other places to introduce? My roommate has complained to the landlord again."

Clara, who was in a good mood, immediately lowered her face when she heard this, and couldn't help complaining: "Can't you get along with your roommate? I've known you for a year, and I introduced you to four places. to three months."

"You mean, it's my fault?" He looked at Clara with deep eyes, pursed lips, and his voice was low, but his expression showed no sign of admitting his mistake.

So cunning!Clara cursed in her heart, knowing that she had no resistance to this face, yet she still used this expression to seduce her!Hmph, Sherlock really has a crush on her, but he's too embarrassed to admit it, so he must teach this dishonest guy a lesson no matter what he says this time!

Thinking of this, Clara firmly said: "No, it must be someone else's fault!"

It's a pity that in front of beauty, she can only turn into a dog's leg...

Sherlock said with satisfaction: "Then about the house..."

Clara paused: "Of course you can introduce the house, but you must know how to get along with your roommates in harmony, oh—" Clara looked at Louise, her gray eyes rolling in their sockets, "Maybe Louise and I can introduce you to Peter, he gets along very well with his roommate, you can learn from him."

"There will be no one who is completely free from stumbling with his roommate." After Sherlock finished speaking, he noticed Clara's smirk and Louise's helpless expression, and had a wonderful premonition, so he asked, "How close is he to his roommate?" ?”

"Just announced together." Clara laughed loudly, "That's not bad, right!"

Sherlock was noncommittal and didn't intend to take her up on this one, so he said to her, "Give me an address."

"Hey, I actually knew this day would come, so I've been looking for it for you." Clara walked to the cabinet and took out a piece of paper from it, "Go and see, this family is very kind, oh, they still have You don't mind having a cute corgi, do you?"

"I don't mind," Sherlock said, "thanks."

"You're welcome with me." Clara said frivolously, and hooked his chin quickly with her index finger.

Sherlock frowned, and when his nails scratched his jaw, he felt itchy and a slight pain.Although Sherlock has long been familiar with Clara's behavior of eating tofu, he still has the urge to murder her.

"Clara..."

She turned her head when she heard the voice. It was an old lady on the street. She was kind and warm-hearted, and she liked to gossip very much. The latter made her and Clara very compatible, so this lady became her... uh , Forget the New Year?

"Hello, Mrs. Hudson," said Clara, smiling, "let me guess what you're here for, um—you came in last week for a tablecloth, and you came two days ago I took a box of knitting needles, is it—apple butter today?"

Mrs. Hudson exclaimed in amazement: "Clara, how did you do it! You are so clever!"

"It's just remembering the consumption cycle of daily necessities." Sherlock exposed her little trick, "The tablecloth and knitting needles are all pretense."

Hearing this impressive tone, Mrs. Hudson walked a few steps into the store, and then she saw the familiar detective in a long black trench coat. She was even more pleasantly surprised: "Oh, Mr. Holmes! I can meet you here you!"

"Man," Clara shrugged, "somebody stole my limelight the moment he came out."

Mrs. Hudson smiled and comforted her: "You are so funny, Clara, no one can steal your limelight. As for Mr. Holmes—oh, remember my ex-husband, Mr. Holmes set him up for me." sin, I have to thank him very much."

Sherlock smiled politely: "Hello, Mrs. Hudson, how is your love life?"

"Hello," she said, "I'm still in the vacancy period. Now that I'm old, I don't have the heart to find another wife. You come here to buy things, do you live nearby?"

Sherlock smiled and said, "Actually, I'm here to ask Clara to introduce me where to live."

Clara said helplessly, "I'm almost becoming a real estate agent."

"Looking for a house?" Mrs. Hudson was very happy and said immediately, "After Christmas, my tenant will leave here and return to Italy. Maybe you can live in, and I will definitely give you a cheaper price."

"Thank you, Mrs. Hudson, this is good news." Sherlock gently hugged Mrs. Hudson, with a faint smile in his eyes.

"You actually took the initiative to hug Mrs. Hudson, but you never took the initiative to hug me!"

This sentence caused Sherlock's cold eyes, and Clara shut up resentfully.

After a pause, Clara said again: "But I don't think it's good news that Mrs. Hudson gave you cheaper news, Sherlock, can you live in the house I introduced to you for three months? "

"Maybe." Sherlock replied, and then interrupted Clara's movement to speak, "There is no need to introduce Peter to me, thank you, Miss Cooper." After speaking, he gestured to the three present, and strode forward again After leaving the grocery store, Mrs. Hudson chased a few steps away and shouted at Sherlock's back, "I live in Building B, No. 221 on this street, remember to come and find me!"

Sherlock turned around and waved to her with a smile, then a taxi came and he got in the car and left.

Louise said, "Has he always been in such a hurry?"

"Oh, Louise, you're here, sorry, I was too excited to notice you," Mrs. Hudson took Louise's hand guiltily, "their smart people are always in a hurry, as if Time has a grudge. Our Clara, for example, used to leave the store and run around, didn't she?"

"We geniuses don't always pay attention to the time," Clara accepted Mrs. Hudson's compliment bluntly, then raised her chin and looked at the taxi taillights flashing by the street corner, and said with emotion, "I don't care , Some small flaws are considered cute for girls, but that one—no matter what kind of flaws Sherlock has, they can be completely forgiven, he is too sexy, and all flaws are insignificant in front of this charm!"

"Clara," Louise urged, "Lawyer Winslow might be offended by that."

"Oh?" Clara looked back and blinked, "If Winslow got angry with me because of this, he wouldn't have chased me for so long."

Louise smiled helplessly, but was also convinced.

It is true that Clara is a very attractive woman, and she can be said to be coquettish in every way, but in fact she was not like this before, she was weak and timid in the past.

Clara and Louise came from the same orphanage, and were later adopted together by a kind-hearted couple. The couple provided for them to go to high school. They lived peacefully like this, but Clara was in high school. They disappeared the day before school started, and their adoptive parents called the police for a long time but could not find them, and then they had to let it go.

After Louise went to college, in her sophomore year, she saw Clara, whose temperament had changed drastically, at the welcome party held by the School of Arts. Although the process of re-acquaintance was very tortuous, the two recovered successfully. As for the former friendship, it is also very fortunate that it has been like this until now.

Clara would occasionally go home with her to visit her adoptive parents, but she never mentioned the days when she disappeared from home. Although her adoptive parents became less and less affectionate towards her because of this, fortunately, Louise was very understanding. , did not weaken her enthusiasm for Clara because of her wariness, after all, they grew up together.

"Lawyer Winslow invited you to dinner." Louise picked up her vibrating mobile phone and said to Clara, who was busy in front of the store, "Tonight at [-]:[-] at the Keesen Garden Restaurant, eh , where is this? I've never heard of it."

"Then let's go and have a look together?" Clara turned her head and said with a smile, and said coquettishly to Louise, "Oh, don't make such an expression, let's come together."

Louise smiled helplessly: "Clara, this is a date for the two of you, what will happen if I go?"

"Like three people on a date." Clara pulled her with a smile, "Dear Louise, I promise you won't show any embarrassment. With me here, let's see who dares to embarrass you!"

Look, now Clara is very confident and pampered, but also not lacking in sobriety and calmness. Her Clara is almost perfect.
