Christa's hand that pushed the door stopped, and her curly long eyelashes flapped three times from top to bottom, "Oh. I wasn't purely for him. And...he didn't mean to harm me, did he?"

The tone was understated, and he didn't care at all.

Sherlock glanced at her somewhat unexpectedly. The girl was thin and fluffy. Her long, fluffy hair fell on her shoulders in a soft cloud, and she wafted the light scent of crabapple while walking.

If she was willing to look back, Sherlock would understand that it was her indifference to everything she hadn't expected.

Regrettably, it took him a long time to realize the truth that he could have known earlier, that was right in front of his eyes.

***

The snow-white and soft wedding dress stretched seven feet across the floor. In the floor-to-ceiling mirror, the girl's lips were moist and her figure was light and beautiful. A diamond carefully cut out of countless facets swayed slightly in front of her smooth and fair neck.

Arthur gently embraced her from behind, playing with the dazzling diamond on her neck with his slender fingers.Taroy saw the smile on the lips of the man behind him in the floor-to-ceiling mirror, like the warm monsoon wind blowing over London.

However, no matter how warm it is, it also carries the strong arrogance of the ruler.

"Like this one?" Arthur's warm breath was blown against her ears, tingling and tingling, a little bit deliberately seductive.

Disgust flashed in Taroy's large, bright eyes.

When there was no answer, Arthur chuckled lightly, "If you don't like it, we can change it. We can try it slowly until Sunday."

"No, just this one." She pushed Arthur's hand around her waist, "If I'm done trying, can I go back?"

"There's no rush, there are bouquets and jewelry, and the shape hasn't been decided yet." Arthur lowered his head to adjust the slightly skewed sapphire earrings for her.

"Cornflower Blue, it's very nice of you."

"Just let the person in charge of the wedding decide." She turned her head slightly, trying to avoid his touch, her tone was cold.

Physical rejection cannot be concealed.

Arthur's hand on her soft earlobe was stiff, and he lowered his eyes and kissed her hair, "If you find it troublesome, we won't watch it, you just need to be a beautiful bride with peace of mind. By the way , I invited Isidor for you on the wedding day, I think you will be very happy to receive his blessing."

She finally couldn't bear it anymore, and swung Arthur's right hand around her chest vigorously, tears filled her beautiful eyes.

"What else do you want? I have already promised you a wedding! You...why did you ask him to come? You know...you know..."

Arthur looked at her, his eyes flashed with bewilderment and confusion.

"Taroy, why do you like him? Obviously, I was the one who rescued you when you were kidnapped. We have known each other for so many years, why can't we compare to an outsider?"

"I just... hope you like me a little more..."

He was really puzzled, and looked like an innocent child.

Taroy sneered, look, she is so innocent. When she was just caught by the Byrd family, she did not plan to escape. For the first time, she was about to leave here successfully, but Arthur appeared.

His whole body was covered with blood, and his snow-white shirt was torn apart by something, and he was extremely embarrassed.She thought that this delicate and beautiful boy was also trafficked here, and for a moment she couldn't bear to take him away with her.

At that time, he also looked at her with this innocent and ignorant expression.

So she paid the price of freedom for the rest of her life.

But this time, she had nothing left to give.

"Even without Isidore, I can't like you! People like you who take pleasure in trampling others and only see money and benefits don't know what liking is! I'm not sick, and I won't like you in this life The last person who imprisoned me!"

What's more, there is still an unforgivable hatred between them.

Those hatreds that she thought she could only swallow alone and could not tell the world.

"As for the kidnapping...if it wasn't for you, who would go to such lengths to kidnap a worthless girl?"

"Besides, isn't the person you so-called like Anne Bird? You can kill the person you like for the sake of rights, but in the end you have to find Anne's shadow in others. It's a joke!"

Arthur's eyes darkened, and he reached out to brush a strand of hair around her ear as if he had never heard of it, but Taroy avoided it.

He sighed, "Things are not what you think, I... It's not because of Annie, I really like you."

"Oh. I can't deserve your noble love. You should leave your love to your 'Anne'."

The girls she had stumbled across had a name called Anne.They should have their own names and their own lives, but they were all turned into the same "Annie" by this lunatic.

And she, to Arthur, was just the one who most resembled "Annie" among these people, but she was clearly...

"Taroy, you are tired, let's go home first." He looked at her, as if looking at a child's ignorant pampering and tolerance.

***

Christa always felt that her senior brother was absent-minded today, and even when the teacher asked him to demonstrate the technique for himself, he made several mistakes.

What happened to Taroy had a profound impact on him, and... She squinted her eyes slightly when she thought of the bronzing invitation. No one would be able to calm down when they received the news that their girlfriend was married to someone else.

Professor Smith raised his hand and said in an unexpected tone, "If you don't have the mind, don't touch the violin!"

Isidore put down the violin upon hearing this, "...Sorry, teacher."

"Don't tell me you're sorry. The only thing you're worthy of is the violin in your hand." Professor Smith spread out the score, "Think about it for yourself, the recital is about to start, so don't embarrass me by then."

"I will adjust my state as soon as possible." Isidore narrowed his eyes.

"...So you think he's going to elope with Taroy tonight?"

Sherlock quietly put aside the sweet sauce on the plate when Krista wasn't paying attention, and answered the question calmly.

Christa caught a glimpse of his small movements, pretending not to notice, and sliced ​​open the cheesecake with a silver fork.

"It's not that I think, but he really wants to do it. ... I heard him call his manager to ask if he can cancel the concert. Do you think a violinist suddenly has such an idea?" Her eyes fell on the soft On the greasy sliced ​​cake, it felt rather dull, "I'm worried that the teacher will be very sad if he does this."

Isidor can bear the consequences of any decision she makes, so she won't interfere with his decision, even if she thinks it's a little... dizzy.But as a student whose teacher has devoted half his life to teaching him, giving up everything for the sake of love is simply a denial of half his life.

"Krista, your poor brain is finally doing a little bit of what it's supposed to, but you should go to an emotional specialist or cry in Mrs. Hudson's arms. I'm a detective and this Scotland Yard doesn't care about that kind of thing!"

Christa was slightly taken aback when she heard the words. Indeed, it's not that she didn't know that Sherlock was not good at dealing with these problems in the world, but when she encountered a problem, her first reaction was to ask Sherlock to solve it.

If Sherlock hadn't pointed it out today, she wouldn't have noticed.She seems to subconsciously trust Sherlock a little too much...

Putting away the messy and complicated thoughts, Christa smiled maliciously: "The coupon for this restaurant was given to me by the teacher. For the sake of the teacher, the owner of the restaurant just gave us a free order. In other words, today You are relying on my teacher's face to eat this meal."

Sherlock dismissed her logic, "You still have a dozen of these coupons in your bag, ready to give to Mrs. Hudson and Ancesi. Even without your coupons, I can enjoy free orders at the restaurant next door .”

…Condolences to the novelist who does not deserve the proper name.

"The restaurant next door?" Krista raised her eyebrows in confusion.

"I testified to Scotland Yard that the restaurateur was committing a burglary when he was suspected of being involved in a hit-and-run car accident."

Krista: "..."

"You don't need to worry uselessly about this—Talroy won't elope with him."

"Who knows for sure? There are accidents in everything." Although according to the conclusion drawn last time, it is unlikely that Taroy will elope with Isidor temporarily, but the variables in a relationship are unpredictable.

"That's you, my inference will not be surprising."

The tone is extremely arrogant.

***

Arthur was temporarily notified of an unexpected incident in the group and had to rush over to deal with it immediately.This allowed Taroy, who was highly tense under the pressure of his breath, to finally take a breath.

Taroy went up to the second floor.

The maid opened the door for her, Taroy's face changed slightly, "You go first, please let me close the door."

The maid didn't notice the momentary unnaturalness in her expression, she lowered her head and gently closed the door for her.

The young man in the room turned his head and smiled, "Taroy."

"Isidore!"

After a moment of great joy, there was a dark worry in her expression, "Why are you here? It's too dangerous here!"

If Arthur finds out that he has sneaked in, it is impossible to let him go.

Isidor calmly said, "It's okay, I've made arrangements. Arthur Bird has been taken away by me, and we have enough time to leave here."

The wedding of Taroy and Arthur Bird was brought forward, not because of the young Patriarch's impromptu idea, but because someone poked him in order to teach him a little lesson.

After all, not everyone can get cheap from that authoritarian lady.

But how is he willing?

Even if the authority within the organization is banned, it doesn't mean that he can't find someone who doesn't know what's going on and who has enough authority.

—He got in touch with Emma.

Fortunately, she seemed to be targeted by someone, and the information communication with the organization was unilaterally cut off, so she has not received the news that his authority has been banned.Coincidentally, Emma happened to be in charge of this part of the work with the Byrd family.

Therefore, using Emma's authority to make some small arrangements will not arouse suspicion for the time being, and when they are waiting to be discovered, they have already left London.

Fortunately, Emma didn't think too much, otherwise things couldn't have gone so smoothly.

And the only thing that wasn't in his plan——

Taroy shook his head when he heard this, and took two steps back, a pair of beautiful eyes filled with apology.

"Sorry, Isidor, I can't leave with you."

"Why?" He was puzzled.

Taroy stared at him for a long time before making up his mind and speaking slowly.

"Because I told you my real name when we first met. I'm not some Taroy. I'm Anne Bird. The only legitimate heir to the Bird family."

The author has something to say: By the way, don’t you think it’s a very unacceptable thing for Taroy to use the name Annie?

Of course, the truth is far from out. (manual smile)
