[Sherlock Holmes] Captured a detective

Chapter 54

The two danced dryly for a while, and Jenny felt that it was not a problem: Is there such a stern dancer who dances in silence without talking?Are you tm kidding me?

"Is it because you have been injured and stayed here for so many days because this time is troublesome?" Jenny chose a topic.

Turning around twice, Sherlock noticed that Bruce Willy was looking at him from a distance. He blinked his eyes slightly, and began to worry about it. When he heard Jenny's words suddenly, Sherlock didn't react for a while.

"what?"

Jenny repeated what she just said in a good-tempered manner.

"No, no." Sherlock pursed his lips and said nothing.

Quatrains!

I can't talk anymore today! !

Jenny has completely lost to this guy... Although Sherlock dances pretty well, dancing without a tacit understanding is simply torture! !Jenny looked up at Sherlock, but found that his attention seemed to be attracted by someone else outside the field.Following Sherlock's gaze, Jenny saw the Duke of Windsor and Bruce Willie (she only knew these two in the group), and she suddenly understood.

"Is there really something wrong? Otherwise, you wouldn't have been looking at the Duke." Jenny whispered, "Why don't I cover you and you go?"

Sherlock looked down at Jenny's somewhat excited eyes, not understanding what she was thinking, "No need." Sherlock said, and with a firm hand around Jenny's waist, he led her around in a big circle.Because Sherlock's right hand was hanging on his chest, Jenny could only support his shoulders. When she was suddenly surrounded by this, she secretly exclaimed, her fingers sank into Sherlock's flesh, and her footsteps could only follow Sherlock's strength in circles. .

"Oh~" The women who were watching around the two exclaimed together.

It turns out that Jenny’s skirt has hidden secrets. Her skirt is only tied to her chest, and the skirt below her chest is loose and scattered, layered on top of each other. But in fact, there is a piece of embroidery folded in the middle of every two skirts, and it’s just that she embroiders when she moves slightly. Hidden from view.

The embroidery is eight roses. On the dark gold background, the rice-divided purple and deep purple flowers outlined with white silver thread seem to be blooming in the skirt: from the trembling buds to the buds that are about to bloom, Finally, there are delicate and blooming flowers... There are eight pictures in total, with the steps going down, from Jenny's chest to the left, the flower buds are under her left chest, and the flowers are under her right skirt.

Just now, Jenny danced only by swaying her body slightly, and the flowers were only faintly visible at her feet, but when she turned around like this now, all the flowers suddenly bloomed in front of everyone, just a glimpse, and before everyone saw clearly It was hidden in the skirt again before, which made people yearn for it, and really wanted to find out what the flowers on her skirt looked like.

Jenny was very satisfied with this effect, but she also knew the truth of maintaining a sense of mystery, so she stopped making any big moves, and only made the patterns flash and disappear, which made the hearts of those women itch.

Sherlock didn't seem to notice this. His hand was injured and he couldn't use his strength, and he couldn't dance to his heart's content. As for him, he didn't like to stay too much in such a crowded place.

After the song ended, the two stopped dancing and walked out tacitly, but they were stopped before they reached the door.

Bruce Willie is very dissatisfied with Sherlock, the dance has just started, and the dance music has not been played, and he is about to take Mrs. Hudson away... Doesn't he know that having a good relationship with those noble ladies is very important to Hudson? Is Mrs. Sen important?

"Will you have a dance?" Bruce Willy asked Jenny as he danced over Sherlock.

"I really want to dance with you too." Jenny tightened Sherlock's arm with a look of embarrassment on her face, "But I seem to have sprained my foot just now... You see, I just want Mr. Holmes to take me to rest... …Ah, I am so sorry to have had such a rare opportunity."

Bruce Willie suddenly showed disappointment, "Oh my God, how did this happen, what do you think? Do you need a doctor? Mrs. Hudson, I can..."

"I think we can handle this small matter by ourselves." Sherlock interjected, "I won't bother you, Mr. Bruce Willie, ah... Miss Claire has been watching this way, I think she is waiting for your invitation .”

The duo of Sherlock and Jenny greeted Bruce Willie politely, and left arm in arm.

Sherlock: She rejected other men in front of me...

As soon as the two left, Bruce Willy's face darkened.

Bruce Willy is not a fool, on the contrary, he is very smart, he can understand Jenny's rejection.Even in private, Jenny made it clear that at most she only regarded him as a friend, not to mention on the surface, as long as there was a slight possibility of ambiguous rumors, Jenny would keep him at a respectful distance.

As far as Jenny's appearance is concerned, at most she can dress up, but it is not considered an advantage among a group of ladies, let alone she is a little widow with little money.Sometimes Bruce Willie can't figure out what he likes about her...Maybe, it's her eyes, looking at her eyes can make you calm down and feel the world.

Bruce Willie could sense that he didn't like Jenny the same way he liked his past lovers.

Although Bruce Willie has countless lovers, he has not been rejected.If Jenny rejected him according to the "normal procedure" like everyone else, maybe Bruce Willy wouldn't care so much.

However, Jenny was with Sherlock Holmes while rejecting him...Why?

In terms of money, he has private property in his hands, and that man only has income when he receives a case; in terms of status, he is a viscount, and that man is a commoner; He is gentle and considerate, that man makes you want to die as soon as he speaks; in terms of demeanor... well, that man is still a gentleman; in terms of height... this is no match! =w=

This man is not as good as him in everything (except height)... Well, maybe he is smarter than him in some aspects, but that's just because of his special skills... That's also half as good as him, but why does the eldest brother value that? Man, Mrs. Hudson likes that man too...he refuses to accept it! !

"Your Excellency, Viscount Bruce Willie, where are you~ don't you go...to dance?" A lady stepped forward to strike up a conversation, blinking her big eyes behind the fan.

"Of course, Mrs. Oswald." Bruce Willie smiled charmingly again and held out his hand.Mrs. Oswald closed her fan proudly and put her hands on it.The two stepped onto the dance floor, and the women who were talking about skirts just now hid their faces behind fans and chattered again.

Some people are unhappy, and some are secretly happy.

Sherlock was in such a good mood that even Jenny noticed.

Sherlock led Jenny out of the hall, but instead of taking Jenny upstairs, he turned a corner, walked through a corridor, and entered another room.

"Oh." Jenny looked around. This is a small reception room. Jenny didn't know that Sherlock was so familiar with this building... Also, why did he bring her here?

"Although we seem to have different positions on His Excellency the Viscount, what he said still makes sense." Sherlock walked to the wall and put a record into the phonograph.No matter how stupid Jenny was, she understood what he wanted to do. Standing in the middle of the open space, she raised her eyebrows and said, "I didn't expect you, Mr. Holmes, to agree with Bruce Willie. It's beyond my expectation."

The soothing sound of the violin flows out like a spring river, and Sherlock will play this tune occasionally, and Jenny can't figure out whether it's his sudden intention or premeditated... It feels like it might be the latter.

Sherlock came over, "I've always been right about things and not people." He bent over and stretched out his left hand. Jenny put one reserved hand in his palm and the other on his shoulder.The two of them danced to the music, and they looked really talented, a perfect match...if you didn't listen to what they were talking about.

"I thought you would chat with the Duke of Windsor for a while. After all, it was him...Is it him? Invited you?"

"The matter has been settled long ago. I think you'd better stay away from the Marchioness of Beveridge. The people around her are not very good."

"Are you referring to him? Or her? By the way, I was just about to ask, the lady in the red dress who was chatting with her just now... Have you noticed?"

"Hmph, you mean the lady with all three lovers here and having a good time?"

"... God bless her husband... Is her son his own?"

"One is and the other is not."

"Pfft... Mr. Holmes, have you seen Her Majesty the Queen?"

"?No."

"It's a pity. Have you seen the Prince of Wales? Your Majesty the future king. I heard that he is a handsome guy, but he is a little older."

"... Mrs. Hudson, I have reason to believe that you need to stay away from the Marchioness of Beveridge."

"Well, you're boring, so how about Mr. Brown?"

"..."

It is not surprising that Sherlock is evaluated as "boring". People often say that about him, and he would rather not be interesting in the usual sense.But when Mrs. Hudson said that, he just wanted to roll his eyes. He deeply suspected that there might be some terrible source of infection in the castle of the Duke of Windsor, which made the usually normal Mrs. Hudson become so gossip.

So Sherlock asked Jenny directly: "Can you change the topic to something interesting?"

Jenny: "...Interesting? For example? Well, let's make a case." There's really no way.

This topic caught Sherlock's eyes, and he felt that it was indeed a good topic that could bring the relationship between the two closer.

... Sure enough, Mrs. Hudson was not like other stupid women.
