[Sherlock Holmes] Captured a detective

Chapter 110 Four

When John learned that his friend needed him, he immediately put down other work and rushed to 221b with his medical kit.When he saw the frail and pale Sherlock, he knew that things were probably worse than he thought.

"Did you cross the ocean to Africa to investigate the case? You look as if you just escaped from the cannibals in the tropical rainforest. I almost thought you were not a detective but an explorer." John said with a rare venomous tongue model.

"Let me remind you that there is no tropical rainforest in Africa." Sherlock corrected, "But I did cross the ocean, the Atlantic Ocean."

"You went to America?" John asked as he checked Sherlock.

"To be precise, it's the Midwestern region of the United States. Compared to the United Kingdom, the Americans are really a bunch of barbarians. But they are developing very rapidly. Hiss." Sherlock moved his leg cooperatively, but accidentally stretched the wound.

"Does this have something to do with your injury?" Jenny brought two cups of tea, and she put the plate aside first, "Doctor Watson, how are you?"

"The wound of the bullet is a little festering because the medicine was not applied in time (Jenny gave Sherlock a look), but it doesn't matter, I have already treated him. Fortunately, no bones were injured. After the injury, he can be with me It's the same as before. Recently he may have a fever frequently, if he has a fever, give him a pill of this." John took out several medicine bottles and put them on the table, "If he feels pain, take a pill of this, and morphine will be more effective , but I would not recommend that. Holmes has used coca/ine before and I fear he may become addicted...can only hope the wound does not worsen."

There were no antibiotics at this time, and there was little one could do if the wound got infected, which was why Jenny and John were so nervous.

"The bone is corrected very well, there is no problem. I adjusted the splint and try not to use my arm at ordinary times." John instructed, "The dressing needs to be changed every day. I will come back tomorrow, and then I will bring a bottle of alcohol for disinfection. "

"Okay, Dr. Watson, it's good to have you here."

"You are always welcome, you know."

Probably because of returning to a familiar environment, Sherlock's bravado didn't last long. He said he was fine a moment ago, but he started to have a fever at night. Fortunately, Jenny was well prepared to keep his injury from getting worse.

But even so, Sherlock lay on the bed for five whole days before recovering.After waking up, Sherlock was immediately dissatisfied with his current situation-wasting his life in bed...he couldn't even go to the bathroom by himself!But then John brought a solid wooden cane to solve this problem.

This is not the only thing that troubles Sherlock. Jenny also got some recipes from nowhere, and she has to cook a bowl of something that looks like "Jenny the Witch's handmade potion" every day for him to drink, and she can't do without it... … Sherlock has drunk his most hated ginger smell in it more than once, but since drinking this stuff, he found that ginger is actually a kind of food that tastes pretty good.

Five days later, John confirmed that Sherlock's wound was no longer inflamed, and now he just had to wait for it to heal.And Sherlock finally got permission to sit on the recliner by the window and tell Jenny and John what happened after he left.

It turns out that Sherlock didn't go with Bruce Willie. Bruce Willie sent two policemen to America with Sherlock because of a rumor that "Jack the Ripper" is in America.

"Jack the Ripper" brought great fear and shadow to the citizens of London, even if it was just a little rumor, it also brought unexpected panic to the people, not to mention the subsequent political storm, even the grandson of Queen Victoria was not immune.Therefore, even if it is just a rumor this time, it is only a very small possibility, and the British royal family never wants this name to appear on British soil again.

...Sherlock actually didn't want to be sent to the United States. Based on his own reasoning, he believed that the man named Aaron Kosminski, who had been thrown into a mental hospital, was the real "Jack the Ripper". But he didn't have exact papers because he wasn't in the UK at the time.

It's just that Bruce Willie expressed his request as a royal family, so Sherlock had to consider it.

It's not easy to find out, especially when the American and British police look down on each other.

"Those Americans are rude and savage. They don't need IQ at all. They just do things by instinct. Even if the clues are put under their noses, they can't see them. Their interior is also much darker than Scotland Yard. By comparison, Ray Those policemen under Strade are almost like angels." Sherlock couldn't hide his disgust even when he lay on the bed and thought about it.

The other two policemen are of course Bruce Willy's confidants, but they can't escape the fate of running errands, but Sherlock goes to the police station to try his luck from time to time.

Really let him meet one.

One day, Sherlock accidentally discovered that a person who had just been arrested by the American police turned out to be his "old acquaintance"—of course not a friend, that person was one of Moriarty's subordinates, and he was the one in charge of weapons.But he hasn't been around Moriarty for a long time. Sherlock thought he was sent to Europe by Moriarty, but he didn't expect to come to America.

Out of humanitarianism... um... well, it's actually just a habit of going against Moriarty, Sherlock spent a few minutes showing his reasoning under the frightened expression of the "old acquaintance".

Sherlock deduced from the guy's hair, collar, skirt, trouser hem, shoe hem and the contents of his pockets the environment he lived in recently, the road was being repaired near the door, there were two accomplices, he just ate a hot dog sandwich, and a group of Italian gang in America doing arms business...

What privacy, what password, what date and place of delivery... It seems completely transparent in Sherlock's reasoning.

"That was just a test," Sherlock said to John and Jenny with reserved pride. "I don't believe Moriarty has put his hand out to America yet, but he's actually working on it, but I'm afraid he'll have to take it out." The matter has been postponed." Sherlock felt that he was lucky to meet this matter, and it was better to nip the signs in the bud than to wait until Moriarty became stronger.

Back to the events in America...

A few minutes ago, Sherlock cast a piece of reasoning, and a few minutes later, he harvested a bunch of rice... Of course it is impossible!

However, after those American police officers dubiously left the mission, they found out... Nima, that serious British guy is amazing!Of course they didn't express their surprise in front of Sherlock, but who is Sherlock, how could he not notice that these Yankees almost dropped their jaws in fright?

It must be said that after this incident, those American policemen who went straight to the strong first really changed their attitude towards Sherlock, which is specifically manifested in the fact that Sherlock's investigation has become much easier.

With more clues, through Charlotte's reasoning, the police quickly found the person who claimed to be "Jack the Ripper" and confirmed that "Jack the Ripper" was indeed a fake news: it was just a man from the UK. The wanted criminal who fled to the United States pretended to be "Jack the Ripper" in order to show his strength in front of his accomplices.

After learning of this fact, Sherlock and the two British policemen were relieved, and then the fake "Jack the Ripper" was thrown into an American prison with the acquiescence of the two British policemen.In view of Sherlock's previous help, the American police promised their British colleagues that they would not give this guy a chance to leave prison.

Things didn't end there.

Just as the three were about to return to England, someone came to visit Sherlock.It turned out that the "old acquaintance" was not only in the arms business, but also in the population business.There was a British boy who fell in love with a girl from Philadelphia while he was working in the United States, but just when he was thinking of proposing to her, the girl was taken away by a group of human traffickers.

Oh yes, by Sherlock's "old acquaintance"... not for free, of course.

The British guy choked his blood to find his missing lover, and tracked down the scene where the police arrested him, but his lover was no longer there.

As an Englishman, the guy naturally knew who Sherlock was. After knowing Sherlock's address, the guy immediately went to the villagers for help and paid for it.

The reason why Sherlock agreed was not because of the fellow, nor because he was moved by the love of the fellow, but because he wanted to see if anyone else hooked up with Moriarty.

The result is not.

The girl was captured by a few Moshes from Philadelphia (just a group of heretics in Sherlock's eyes), the girl's father had given his life to let her escape from them, and now they came specifically to catch her .

"Because her father left her a large inheritance and she was the sole heir, they chose a 'husband' for her to 'legally' get that inheritance," Sherlock explained.

"What a bunch of villains." John waved his fist and said angrily.

"I think what happened next must be related to your injury." Jenny stated.

"Uh, yes." Sherlock spread his hands helplessly.

What followed was simple yet intense, and they found the outlaws - luckily they found them in time, and the poor girl was almost forced to marry one of the villains, but the wedding was stopped by Sherlock and the others .

This group of villains who flouted the law rejected Sherlock's "good intentions", or it should be said that each of them had a bloody case on them, and Sherlock deduced all of this from their criminal records, so even if they handed over the The girl and surrendered to the police, they will also be thrown in jail, or even sentenced to death.Naturally, they refused to surrender, preferring to fight to the death.

It was a fierce battle. Sherlock was lucky compared to those who died, but compared to those who were only slightly injured, Sherlock was really unlucky.But the result was good. In the end, the villains were all brought to justice, and the lovers finally became family members. Sherlock/unlucky guy/Holmes was carried back to England all the way.

"Well done my friend, well done." John said enthusiastically. "You brought the bad guys to justice again, and you saved a couple of lovers. I think you did the right thing."

"I don't think you did anything wrong, but it would be better if you didn't get hurt." Jenny hurriedly kissed Sherlock's forehead worriedly (Sherlock made a strange gesture where Jenny couldn't see) expression, a little dissatisfied and a little bit of enjoyment).She is not as optimistic as John.Whether it cut off Moriarty's tentacles, hindered his business, or even got his subordinates arrested, it is estimated that this "professor of crime" will blame Sherlock.
