[Sherlock Holmes] Captured a detective

Chapter 110

Mycroft originally just wanted to say hello politely, but he didn't want to get a personal reply from the Duke of Windsor, inviting him and Sherlock to go to Windsor Castle for lunch.There is no other way, I can only say that luckily both of them brought formal clothes.

As soon as the two of them left, Jenny felt bored. It happened that her arms were still sore and she didn't want to go out. She simply instructed Fantine and Mrs. Gwen to cook at home, and all kinds of scents wafted far away.This caused Mycroft and Sherlock to have serious faces when they came back in the carriage, and laughed from ear to ear when they got off the carriage.

But I didn't expect that Mycroft's visit would bring out sequelae.When he told Jenny that there were two guests coming to visit, Jenny didn't feel anything. Anyway, they just went to the town to do some shopping, and it was definitely enough to treat them.

...Forget about Bruce Willie, anyway (what is it called?) The younger brother of the Duke of Windsor, who is related to the police station and is also a friend, it is not uncommon to come to say hello and have fun.But what happened to the one behind?It looks familiar.

Seeing the familiar Miss Bardwell standing in front of Sherlock with shining eyes, Jenny felt overwhelmed, turned to Bruce Willy, forced a decent smile and asked, "Who is that?"

Bruce Willie was actually quite embarrassed, and that guy followed him forcefully, and it was hard for him to refuse. "Miss Bardwell, she is...my fiancée's cousin." Bruce Willy twitched the corner of his mouth as if he had a toothache, feeling deeply ashamed.

It wasn't just Bruce Willie who felt ashamed, but Miss Bardwell's companion, Mrs. Dalton.

Mrs. Dalton was always with Miss Bardwell, and she was naturally aware of her little thoughts.

When meeting this Mr. Holmes for the first time, Miss Bardwell acted very...abnormally. Mrs. Dalton didn't understand. What was she looking for in him?He has no future, no status, maybe a little fame, but what's the use of that?Mr. Bardwell would not allow it at all, perhaps he would be furious after knowing what Miss Bardwell was thinking.

And the most important point; the way that Mr. Holmes looks at Miss Bardwell is not at all the way a man looks at a woman, okay?

But Mrs. Dalton has nothing to do now. Whether she steps forward to remind her or ignores it, it will always be embarrassing. She can only hope that others will not notice.

...how is this possible?

Sherlock is simply a point of attention, okay?Who is not human here?Bruce Willie's face was even worse.

It's not a big deal for a woman to fall in love with a man, but don't act like a nympho, okay?Where is the face?What about reserved?What about women's scheming methods?When everyone else is blind?Not to mention Sherlock Holmes, he is still wandering when he is facing you, can't you see it?

Since he is a human being, pretending to be stupid is naturally top-notch.Bruce Willie stroked his mustache and said, "The day before yesterday I saw Mr. Holmes, both of you were absent-minded during lunch. I was surprised. I was not surprised to see Mrs. Hudson here today. Mrs. Hudson, I wonder if I can have the cheek to ask for a chance to have lunch together?" He took Jenny's hand and kissed her, but looked at Jenny with "lovely" eyes.

Although she knew he didn't mean it, Jenny was still happy: What woman wouldn't like to be treated so courteously by a handsome guy?

Jenny smiled and became more sincere: "Of course, Your Excellency, what do you want to drink? Coffee? Tea?" Probably because he is used to the Baker Street mode, Bruce Willy doesn't think Jenny's tone of a master What's wrong, the two ignored the master and servant in a tacit understanding.

Mycroft knew that Jenny and Bruce Willie knew each other, but he didn't know that their relationship was so good.This thought only passed through Mycroft's mind for a while, and Mycroft stopped thinking about it, but he still walked towards Sherlock with a very good conscience.

"Hehe, Miss Bardwell, don't just stand here, let's have a cup of tea together." Mycroft stretched out his right hand, and Miss Bardwell had to extend her hand too, and Mycroft led She went to the sofa and sat down.

Sherlock exchanged a grateful glance with Mycroft.With Sherlock's EQ, he didn't notice the feelings of that Miss Bardwell, but just thought she... was so annoying.

Everyone went to the living room. Miss Bardwell took the brunt of it and very consciously found a seat with the best light and sat down. It seemed that she was used to being flattered, so she took it for granted.But when Jenny sat down on the chair next to Sherlock, Miss Bardwell suddenly looked at Jenny in surprise and said, "Mrs. Hudson, aren't you going to make lunch?"

Jenny really didn't know how to react, maybe she was so surprised that she forgot to be angry.How should I put it... I've seen stupid ones, but I haven't seen such stupid ones... Oh, my God, Sherlock can enjoy despising women again to his heart's content.

But as soon as Miss Bardwell came out like this, Jenny remembered who she was, wasn't it the Miss White Lotus she met when she helped Tom watch the shop in winter?

Jenny made up her mind to go back and tell Tom that she would not take orders with the surname Bardwell in the future, unless...they were willing to pay four times the price.

Jenny hadn't had time to react, or when everyone was stunned by Miss Bardwell's stupid words, Sherlock jumped up suddenly, and he looked at Bardwell indifferently Miss, the gray eyes are almost colorless.

"I think the honorable noble lady must feel that the humble room is shabby and she is going to go back?" Miss Bardwell opened her mouth as if to explain something, how could Sherlock pay attention to her?He turned directly to Bruce Willy and said, "Please, Your Excellency the Viscount, please. Take this nobleman who can only eat and drink until his mind is empty and go back to your castle. By the way, remember to remind her not to forget I have to take medicine."

"Uh..." Bruce Willy was also very angry at this idiot, but he didn't want to just leave like this. Isn't this the rhythm of preparing for the end of friendship?Why do you think he can't bear to be deceived by that idiot who said "I want to meet that amazing Mr. Detective"?Why did he hesitate just because she was his fiancee's cousin?

Bruce Willie glanced at Jenny, who was enjoying tea gracefully without looking up.That's right, she's not a saint, she begs for mercy after being said so, and doesn't owe them anything... Bruce Willie knows that Jenny's view of people has nothing to do with status, and she's not the kind of person who would be in awe of the powerful in her bones, and that's exactly what happened. It's one of the reasons why he admires her... This is very similar to Sherlock Holmes, there are really any landlords and tenants.

Bruce Willie looked at Mycroft again, hoping that the employee of the British government could say something to make this matter go away.

"Oh, oh, my God." Seeing Bruce Willy's eyes, Mycroft stood up and said loudly as if he had just understood, "Sherlock, you are so rude to Your Excellency the Viscount, you are so rude. How could it be like this..." He went to the door and shouted, "Wood, where did you go, old fellow? Your Excellency the Viscount is going back, hurry up and help harness the carriage!" After shouting, Mycroft walked back Continuing with the previous words, "At least you should be more tactful."

Bruce Willie: ...

Bruce Willie wiped his beard. He could tell that the owners (a group) of this house did not welcome them anymore, and it was meaningless to force them to stay.Bruce Willy stood up abruptly, acting as though they were just about to go back.

"I'm sorry. Although I came here uninvited, I thought I would have a pleasant afternoon." Bruce Willie's face has also been tempered a long time ago.

"Then, see you next time, Viscount, my invitation is still valid." Jenny also stepped forward to shake Bruce Willie's hand, as if they had never had any unpleasantness before...they had never had any unpleasantness before.

After all, Miss Bardwell wasn't stupid enough. Seeing this posture, she knew that she must have said something wrong just now.If it was in the crowd she is used to, she might still be able to pretend to be cute and use some small tricks to deal with it, but now it is obvious that no one present will buy her, so it is rare for her to be smart and not speak, just keep using She looked at Sherlock with pitiful eyes.

Who is Sherlock, even the King of Bohemia, he can drive out the door without any guilt or embarrassment, Miss Bardwell's glances can be regarded as a blind man.

Mrs. Dalton smartly dressed in a transparent dress from beginning to end, it seems that she has long been used to it.

"But, is it okay?" Jenny watched the carriage go away.At this time, the three of them were standing together at the door watching Bruce Willie leave with his future "cousin-in-law (a long-distance relationship)". It is estimated that he is not in a very good mood now.

"Tsk." Brother Holmes sneered at the same time.

"Don't worry, dear Jenny, Miss Bardwell's behavior can only represent her own stupidity." Mycroft said bluntly.

"No, I'm not worried about that." Jenny put her hand on her forehead, "I'm just thinking, if the viscount's future wife has the same brains as that lady...they are cousins, then the viscount's future wife Who will the child...be like?"

Sherlock: "Tsk, I wish them luck."

Mycroft: That's a real problem... wait, what does it matter to me?

Jenny wasn't actually worried, she was just asking.But when it comes to Windsor Castle, she thinks of Mrs. Beveridge. She is probably there too. Do you want to send a letter of greetings... Jenny thought about it, but forget it. Mrs. Qi has been recruited, so this vacation can't be paid off?

After people leave, they still have to eat the same food, but the original menu will no longer be available. Jenny simply made fried dumplings for lunch, which saves trouble.

Jenny originally thought that Bruce Willy would hide for a few days, but Sherlock received his post in the afternoon, and Jenny felt that she still underestimated the cheekiness of the so-called nobles.

Bruce Willie never mentioned anything about Miss Bardwell. He only said that he would still come to Jenny's lunch appointment tomorrow, and asked the coachman to bring a large ice cube by the way.This thing is a rare thing, and with this gift of apology, Jenny feels very satisfied: the weather is hot and dry these days, and this piece of ice can just cool everyone down.

"But thick-skinned." Sherlock muttered, and he and Jenny had the same opinion on this point.But he didn't want Jenny to use the ice that Bruce Willie sent. Who knows what kind of water ice it is?Sometimes Sherlock is also very stubborn. He asks someone to bring a bucket of well water, add alum to settle for a few hours (Jenny: Where did the alum come from?), filter it three times, and then let the clean well water Mrs. Wen boiled it, let it cool, and threw some saltpeter into the water (Jenny: Where did the saltpeter come from?) The next day the water turned to ice.

"It's absolutely clean and edible, how about using it to make ice cream?" Sherlock raised his chin proudly and asked.

"This bucket of ice is all made into ice cream? Do you know how many there are? Is there any admirer of yours coming?" Jenny asked angrily.
