Baker Street Charterers

The days that followed were unremarkable. Of course, there were a few cases that were not sensational, but for Sherlock Holmes, they were not "difficulties, challenges" at all, which made his life difficult. It was quite boring, and almost half of the time was addicted to writing all kinds of weird (compared to other people) alternative articles and smoking. For this reason, Mrs. Hudson complained more than once about the smoky house. Never paid attention to it.

As Sherlock Holmes, Nora Sharp, and John Watson appear more frequently at murder scenes, the detectives who are familiar with them humorously nicknamed them "Three Bitches in London". Of course, the focus of attention is still on Sherlock Holmes is the main detective at home, but obviously the addition of a member of the opposite sex made the readers of the Concern Daily very curious. The reporters who were moved by the news keenly sensed a news that seemed to be related to interests, and they found it on purpose. Baker Street, with a high-profile intention to interview Miss Nora Sharp, one of the "maverick" sluts-after all, in the tabloids, single women who rent together with other opposite sexes are always the classic and timeless gossip protagonists.

Mrs. Hudson was surprised and disturbed by this. In her opinion, a lady should not be seen in public, even if she is full of wisdom or beauty.But Watson disagrees with this. He has always praised Nora's intelligence and sensitivity, and encouraged her to give full play to the charming qualities of women. As for Holmes?Well...his attitude is quite unremarkable, with neither support nor opposition, the only condition is that "that group of fools whose minds are full of pounds and no ink (from Sherlock Holmes's original words)" don't Mess up his house and don't sit on his couch.

Since she couldn't persuade the group of tenants with different thinking, Mrs. Hudson tactfully persuaded Nora to buy a suit of clothes that fit well. Although the thinking was very traditional in this era, the concept of maintaining a decent image in public has always been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.Although Nora didn't care about her appearance, she thought that if she was too casual or sloppy, it might affect the reputation of the great detective?She thought about it for 3 minutes, so she went to ask her partner for advice——

"New clothes? Of course—of course!" Watson agreed with this very much, or he has never expressed any objection to women. "Dear Nora, you have such a good look, you should try more to suit... Uh... beautiful clothes for women." In the words, she still had a heart for her usual neutral dress.

"New clothes? Yes! Nora, look at you on your first day here, you got the lads excited with flowers - I mean, you should buy more clothes for the girls." That's pretty disgusting Her scruffy Mrs. Hudson.

Holmes was sitting on the exclusive sofa with a newspaper in his hand. He just cast a calm glance at Nora's troubled appearance, with a slightly sarcastic smile on his lips, and said unhurriedly, "In my opinion, appearance Has nothing to do with personality, especially when she's plain looking."

"..." Both Watson and Mrs. Hudson praised her for her beauty. Even though she didn't care about her appearance, objectively speaking, her physical appearance was indeed good. Is Holmes face-blind?

——The resentful female tenant.

As a doctor's assistant who has no achievements in dressing and dressing, Miss Nora Sharp needs a good helper with extraordinary aesthetic concepts-it's a pity that the approachable Mr. Cleveland Hawke's knowledge of dressing is limited to corpses, and Watson is working with a The daughter of a hotel proprietress had a hot chat, Holmes was completely out of consideration, and Mrs. Hudson relapsed... After thinking about it, Nora found sadly that she didn't have anyone who could accompany her to go shopping, discuss gossip about single men and women, and share troubles. The existence of a girlfriend who cares about her heart is simply an indelible failure in life.

She had no choice but to come to the Apollinai tailor shop in despair alone.

Compared with the scene seen last time, after entering the door for the second time, seeing the proprietress Amanda still having sex with the male guest, Nora can already keep her eyes straight and her face is calm.She carefully observed the colorful and exquisite long dresses in the store, and the teasing laughter from over there had little effect on her.

"Amanda... you kept me waiting..."

"Oh dear Teena, that's not what you said the last time your tigress came to my place."

"Hehe..." The male guest smiled awkwardly, "You know...she is always unreasonable...but I swear, you are the only one I like—"

Still staring at Nora in a long black dress very seriously.

"Hehehe..." Amanda chuckled very charmingly, "But dear, you never told me before that that you have a fiancee who is 'extremely fierce'."

"..." The man fell silent.

kindness?Have a family?Nora pricked up her ears.

But Amanda is obviously not an infatuated person who lingers on an old relationship. She unceremoniously sent her ex-boyfriend off, and turned a blind eye to the other's gloomy face and lost eyes. When she turned around, she saw Nora looking up and looking serious Stepping on the newly made skirt, squinting her eyes, she leaned over with a smile, and a strong feminine fragrance enveloped her, "Oh, my dear, long time no see, how are you and Sherlock?"

Nora pulled away without any trace, and straightened her face, "Sherlock's life is not good, he didn't find a case he was interested in. As for me, life is ordinary and there is no disturbance."

Amanda's eyes lit up, "Sherlock? Look, the last time I came to my place was Mr. Holmes, who was still unfamiliar. It seems that the dinner made your relationship develop rapidly..."

Nora gave her a strange look, not understanding why this sentimental proprietress always likes to bring her and Holmes together, she explained earnestly, "It's not actually the case, we are excellent friends, partners, I think that's enough."

She currently has no thoughts beyond friendship with the famous Mr. Detective, and I believe the other party does too, and Sherlock Holmes does not seem to be a suitable family choice for living.

Amanda gave her a meaningful look, "Of course, good partner... young girl, apart from love at first sight, you should believe that there is love in this world for a long time... In my opinion, Sherlock has never recognized any Except you, ma'am."

"Probably because he never saw me as a lady." Nora was expressionless.

Amanda covered her red lips with a fan and smiled softly, "I see. So, dear little Nora, why are you here this time? Let me guess, those crazy little reporters Want to interview you, right?"

The proprietress who usually only talks about love is not as frivolous and big-chested as she seems, or Holmes' acquaintances are often not so superficial and simple.

"That's true," said Nora despondently, "so I'm here to learn from you the femininity that never existed in me."

Amanda looked her up and down, and finally said unceremoniously, "That's not necessary, in my opinion, you will never learn."

"..." stare.

"But I can make you temporarily become a lady in a painting when you shut your mouth." Amanda said confidently, her eyes rested on her chest for a moment, and finally turned her head in disgust, "Well... for a long time No, you're still nowhere, dear."

Nora clutched her chest, making a hurt expression.

Amanda chuckled, "Okay, don't pretend. Tell me, what kind of clothes do you want?"

"Convenient, durable and simple." Nora replied without hesitation.

"..." Amanda was silent for a while, and finally pointed to the door with her slender and delicate fingers painted with water-red nail polish, "It's easy to leave."

Nora was frustrated, "So in your opinion, Miss Annwood."

Only then did Amanda raise her chin in satisfaction, "You are not suitable for the bright clothes worn by ordinary ladies at all, it will make you look as ridiculous as a crow splashed with mixed paint."

"..." Nora Woman Han Sharp who was blown into the dust.

"But unexpectedly, little girl, you are very suitable for white, so let's take a look at this dress." Amanda took the long black dress that Nora had been staring at before, and threw it to her, condescending, " Go and try."

Nora walked towards the back hall obediently, holding the dress with smooth ironed material.

After tossing for a full 15 minutes, after confirming for the second time that the belt was not worn wrong, Nora came out with a face full of discomfort, and looked up at Amanda with some anxiety, "... um... Is it a little tight?" ..."

Amanda tapped her forehead with her fingertips very affectionately. This little gesture like a good friend made Nora stunned, only to hear the arrogant and slightly satisfied voice of the proprietress, "I just said, I never There was one misjudgment - tight? Oh dear, you should ask those ladies who bought clothes from me for a lot of money, I've been 'tolerant' enough of you, what lady doesn't want to have one for herself A small waist with charming curves and tight lines?."

Nora touched the faint red mark on her forehead, and at Amanda's urging, she walked slowly to the mirror, tilted her head slightly, and looked at the figure reflected in it.

Well... In fact, the proprietress is not wrong, she is indeed very suitable for black and white clothes.

The skin of this body is fairer and more delicate than other people's, and the facial features are darker, so it doesn't look so delicate and outstanding. The only bright spot is probably the pair of emerald green eyes that are as clear as lake water, and the long rust-colored hair that is naturally curly and thick.The black fabric accentuated her snow-white skin and hair and eyes. The trendy design of the V-neck was not like other skirts in this era. It only slightly exposed a piece around the collarbone, which was elegant and slightly reserved.The sleeves and waist of this dress are tight, and she just fits it well, and girls who are a little fatter may find it uncomfortable.The hem of the clothes is not as exaggerated as others, but it just hangs slightly and naturally, and it is slightly elegant when walking, and the design of the skirt is smooth.At first glance, it is very unique, mysterious and elegant, just like in an oil painting, an unknown woman sitting alone beside the jumping fire with her side face down, the contrast between black, white, static and dynamic is extremely sharp.

Amanda nodded with great satisfaction, but Nora's reaction made her stunned first, and then became angry inexplicably, wishing to poke her to the ground with sharp nails——

The girl in the black skirt glanced at her cautiously, "This...clothes must be expensive? Can I change to a cheaper one? Or... rent it like last time..."

Amanda's face darkened in an instant, she closed her red lips, the veins on her forehead twitched involuntarily, and stared at her slightly ferociously, "What are you talking about? Are you insulting the clothes in my clothing store?"

Although it's really expensive.

Nora sensibly shut her mouth and blinked at her.

Amanda sneered, "Where do you think this is, a cheap costume rental shop? My clothes have always been the pick of people, but after you put them on, you still dislike my clothes because of money? Nora Sharp, I assume you Look down on me as a female boss who lives alone, don't you look down on the clothes I make?"

"..." Nora opened her mouth slowly, not understanding why the other party had such a reaction, or she didn't quite understand the sensitive and secret dignity of being a fashion leader in London. She froze for a moment and touched it. Nose, and said anxiously, "...you misunderstood, Miss Annwood, I don't dislike you and your clothes at all, I'm just..." I was shocked by the price.

Amanda snorted coldly.

Nora hung her head in frustration, "Okay, I'll be responsible for this dress...Maybe you'll give me a discount for Sherlock's sake?"

Amanda held up five slender fingers.

Nora, "You take my life, I want nothing more."

Amanda narrowed her eyes and snorted coldly, "You poor, stingy little girl."

Then one finger was bent down, the other fingers were still firmly erected in place.

"Is the fabric durable?" Nora said with a sad face. "You know, maybe I will disappear from the shopping street for the next six months because of the economic situation."

Amanda once again covered her red lips with a delicate fan, and gave a seductive low smile, "Don't worry, my dear, black is the color that never makes mistakes. It is not only durable, even if you wear it to murder At the scene, no one will find it offensive."

Nora breathed a sigh of relief, which put her at ease.
