[Comprehensive] Baker Street Survival Guide

Watching a movie in a movie theater was a new experience for Mycroft.If he had to book tickets by himself, there would definitely be a large number of people filling the venue and booking services.

Therefore, when he stands on the streets of London at night, without a three-piece suit, and when the cold wind blows on the street, he always has a feeling that his whole body is not covered.

But that's part of dating.

No one would wear a three-piece suit in the downtown area and watch movies with discounted movie tickets. If Mycroft really did this, he could basically foresee the consequences of Joanna pretending not to know him.

Coming out this evening, Mycroft was wearing a black double-breasted overcoat.Although the texture of the clothes is crisp, if you don't observe carefully, it won't be eye-catching.

After getting out of the car, Mycroft saw Joanna standing at the entrance of the theater waiting for him. She was wearing the owl embroidered skirt that Mycroft gave her, the leather shoes and belt matched well, and she put on light makeup. The car came and stood at the door for less than 5 minutes.

"You're not late."

"Punctuality is a good virtue... what's so funny about that?"

Mycroft didn't have anything to add, but Joanna smiled so happily when she came up, he didn't grasp Joanna's thoughts.

"I just think it's pretty good for you to dress like this. The color of the scarf is nice, but it's not wrapped properly." Joanna leaned over, and she stood on tiptoe to straighten the scarf for Mycroft.She had never seen any mistakes in Sherlock Holmes' three-piece suit, and this unwrapped scarf became an obvious crack in the wall, revealing that Mycroft hadn't fully grasped the date. confidence.

The sapphire blue short scarf was slightly adjusted. Mycroft felt Joanna's approach, and saw Joanna take a few steps back and look at the results.

That was actually looking at himself, and the silent warm current infiltrated the two of them.Mycroft gave a dry cough, and he pretended to look down at his watch, reminding Joanna: "It's almost time, let's go in first."

As soon as he said that, Joanna let him go. She also glanced at her phone, pretending to be very surprised and said: "Ah! We haven't bought popcorn yet, and we have to collect movie tickets..."

"I go···"

"That's the best, I'll get the movie tickets." Joanna interrupted Mycroft's distribution fantasy, and she got into the crowd in just a few seconds, leaving only one person who was asked to buy Sherlock Holmes of popcorn.

This must be on purpose. — can be seen without basic deduction.

Mycroft stood at the door for two seconds, then turned and walked towards the sales point in the cinema.

Near the opening of the movie, the line to buy popcorn was very long.It may seem almost daunting at first glance.Holmes only brought two plainclothes security guards with him today, and it is conceivable that the first difficulty of his date has come.

After a simple calculation of the selling speed of the popcorn, there were twenty people in line in front of Mycroft.Six of them will choose the large popcorn.This means that the popcorn machine has to wait for a certain period of time to make a new batch of popcorn...should be able to buy it before the movie starts.

What a disaster!

—whether Mycroft one day uses basic deduction to calculate queue times, or he already knows that he's the last one to get the popcorn before the movie starts, both are equally a pain in the ass.

Not to mention a middle class (you can tell from the style of clothing, Mycroft did not forget to bring his black umbrella), not a young man, not in some high-end restaurant with his wife or girlfriend Enjoy dinner together, but to see Captain America, which is bound to arouse the curiosity of some passers-by.

Behind Mycroft, a young man wearing a sports jacket with the shield pattern of the US team, dressed in a standard nerd, playing games at home As for worshiping superheroes, he was bored while queuing, "Excuse me, I'm a little curious, you Are you also here to see the US team?"

"Obviously so, tonight's filming is for the US team, isn't it?" Mycroft still paused when he said the word US team.Purely out of daily habits, Mycroft's daily work is not lacking in negotiating with people like 'Steve', the only thing those people don't have is superpowers - the comparison between reality and film and television works is enough to produce a kind of Subtle feeling.

The otaku at the back obviously misunderstood Mycroft's tone and regarded him as an accompanying moviegoer who had no contact with Marvel.

"Are you watching it with your family? Let me tell you that this electronic music is not very suitable for you! You must have never watched Captain America 1! There are still some connections between 2 and 1... "——A very enthusiastic young man, almost all his thoughts are written on his face.As long as Mycroft nods, he will briefly introduce the US team 1.

This kind of person has almost disappeared from Holmes' life.Sherlock might still be able to meet one now and then.But Mycroft... the goldfish he encountered in his daily life were at least ornamental, not so... pure natural.

"I've seen it beforehand."

"Hey? What about other Marvel series?"

Holmes frowned slightly, but nodded anyway.In his view, these are typical commercial products. In the process of searching for information, Mycroft tried his best to keep his attention on the development of the story, instead of calculating the operation behind the play and the daily life of some main creators. flow direction.The latter is his job, and the former is about to become a part of his memory palace.

In the memory palace, in the room where Joanna's information was stored, Mycroft added an extra bookshelf to display Marvel's comics.

Obviously, he has one more classification knowledge than Sherlock.But Sherlock doesn't need to know this part.

Marvel's universe view, including DC's, parallel universes of different years, different settings of comics and film and television.He can't quite understand why Joanna likes these.

"That's really..." The otaku had nothing more to say.What's more, he also saw Mycroft's impatience.I just stopped talking.

The popcorn team slowly moved forward. In order to prevent anyone from striking up a conversation, Mycroft took out his mobile phone and glanced at the latest file.

The timing was just right when Joanna pushed her way through the crowd.

There were less than three people in line ahead of Mycroft.

"It's coming to you soon! I took the movie tickets and bought souvenirs along the way." Joanna showed Holmes two brooches. She looked at Mycroft's clothes, hesitated, and continued: "Well, let me keep it for you first." Mycroft's clothes were so flat that Joanna couldn't imagine the effect of pinning the US team badge on it.

"No, just put it on." Mycroft held Joanna's retreating hand, and half a minute later, there was a cute little badge on his left chest—actually, it was still very incongruous...

Joanna wanted to laugh, but she held back, Mycroft's kindness, Joanna didn't want to hurt him at all. "Ahem... let's take a picture."

With the phone in place, in selfie mode, Joanna stood on Mycroft's left hand side, and the two of them stood next to each other, and 'clicked' at the camera.

There's nothing wrong with taking selfies per se.This seems to have become a common hobby in the Internet age.

But... if the object of the group photo is Sherlock Holmes, it is really enough to make the sense of accomplishment bursting!

Posting a photo to show off is meaningless to both of the people in the photo.Joanna would never upload a photo, but she forwarded a copy to Mycroft's phone, and she had taken the group photo as a screen saver first—replacing the original custom background.

There is no way to save the countdown on the top of the person's head through shooting techniques.There was only a frozen frame of time on the screen, but Qiao Anan felt that the ticking countdown sound never stopped.

"You...you...you..." When there was only one person in front of Mycroft, the otaku who spoke to him spoke again.

He suddenly stuttered, looking at Joanna blushing, but fortunately, it didn't take long for her to return to normal: "This is your daughter! Does she have a boyfriend? Can I ask her for a phone number?" ?"

This is your daughter.

your daughter.

Daughter.

daughter.

Son···

Joanna was taken aback by this sudden conclusion. The words of this familiar gentleman kept echoing in her brain... Joanna didn't know what Mycroft said to this strange man What happened, but this kind of misunderstanding is too dramatic.

"Cough! We are lovers."

"Love... lover...?!"

"I have a boyfriend, that's the gentleman standing next to me." After being surprised, Joanna solemnly changed her description to express the same meaning.

The gentleman she calls her boyfriend is buying popcorn right now.After the sale was over, Mycroft turned his head, his face was a little scary, and the otaku secretly called this expression the 'boss face'.He was startled by Mycroft's aura.At the same time, it is inevitable that there will be an accident in the brain.

"The movie is about to start. Now that the misunderstanding is cleared up, let's get in quickly." Joanna pulled Holmes's sleeve and mourned for the unfortunate passer-by who said something wrong.

After checking in.

Mycroft's constant silence was a golden virtue.Joanna shook her head helplessly: "Didn't you already buy the last piece of popcorn?" They couldn't eat the biggest piece of popcorn at all. The only reason to buy it was to wait for the otaku to come back to his senses. , he will find that the popcorn is sold out, and he will not be able to catch up with the opening of the movie...

"He deserved a lesson." There was no bitterness in Mycroft's voice.After sitting in the seat, Joanna saw him turn his phone to silent, and the screen saver was replaced with a photo of two people.

"Are you actually..." Joanna leaned close to Mycroft's ear and put her hands on his shoulders. She paused for a while, using the dim light in the movie theater as a shield, and gently kissed Mycroft Kissed on the cheek: "...not too old... um!"

Not followed by a self-convincing 'Hmmm! ', Mycroft could also hear the smile that couldn't be hidden in Joanna's breath.

He grabs Joanna's hand on her shoulder, and the movie finally begins.
