There was a little accident while hiring a car.It was a family in the town who was willing to rent the car to them, and Sherlock paid a high price and clever words to let the owner relax.Krista left the bracelet as collateral.

It was a new season's product of a certain jewelry brand. Mr. Andre gave it to her when he came to London last time. The design was exquisite, and Krista liked it for a while.Didn't expect it to come in handy on this occasion.

The heavy responsibility of driving was handed over to Sherlock, and Christa expressed her full distrust of Mr. Detective in this regard. Mr. Detective gave her a cold look, expressing with his eyes that you do what you want.

... The little girl Christa, who was one step away from adulthood without a driver's license, shut up obediently and climbed into the back seat of the car, acting as if nothing had happened.

Sherlock's driving skills are slightly better than she thought, but unfortunately this is of no use in the rough roads in the woods.

Feeling the constant bumps of the car, Christa rubbed her head, "Sherlock, let's walk over. It might not be easy to drive in ahead."

After stopping the car, the two walked for a while, and saw a car parked on the side of the road in the woods.

This is probably the car of the unknown couple.She glanced at it casually, and it was clear that the time in the story was written in summer, and it was reasonable to come to the lakeside for vacation in summer.But coming to the lake to blow cold wind in this winter, normal people can't do it, can they?

Thinking of this, the little girl Christa sneezed.

Sherlock, who was walking in front, looked back at her, extremely disgusted, "I thought your brain could still make you think of the fact that the wind is strong by the lake."

"That's what you thought." Christa hugged herself with both hands, and said unceremoniously: "You give me the same scarf and coat. I'm about to freeze to death... The wind is too strong. You can't Abuse the assistant."

Sherlock looked at her for a while, then took off the scarf and threw it into her arms.

"Thank you." Krista wrapped the scarf neatly, the soft wool carried the temperature of the detective's body, and there was also a slight smell of chemical reagents.She touched the scarf, obviously the smell of those reagents and medicines had always only disgusted her, but today... somehow she felt relieved.

But the situation did not allow her to think about it, she ignored the slight palpitation and followed Sherlock's footsteps.

The closer the lake was, the colder it was. A young man and woman were squatting by the lake to set up a barbecue grill.

The man seemed to have spent a lot of effort to light the fire, but it was blown out by the wind within a few seconds.

The woman who was bending over to pack her things saw them as soon as she looked up, and smiled politely at them.

"Kindergarten teacher," Sherlock said.

It is a woman's profession.

Christa could already understand the complex meaning expressed in Sherlock's short sentence, she nodded with understanding, "It's the same as Cecil's occupation in the story, it should be right." unlucky and innocent couple.

She rolled her eyes as she said, "Let's go there. Great actor, it's up to you next."

Neither of these couples has a difficult temperament to get along with. Under the deliberate approach of the two of them, they got their words together very smoothly.

"By the way, are you a couple here too?" The woman who told them her name was Jenny asked interestedly.

Sherlock didn't deny it, "Well, we passed by the town and heard that the scenery of this lake is very beautiful, so we came here to have a look." He said with a helpless look at Christa.

Christa smiled a little shyly, and Jenny couldn't help but pay more attention to her for a while, the limp mixed-race little girl is very cute!

The last doubt in Jenny's heart about the two of them coming to play without bringing anything was finally dispelled. It turned out that they were just passing by.It should be that the little girl heard that the scenery here is very good, but her boyfriend couldn't change her original itinerary and came here.

"We also came in a temporary diversion." Jenny smiled, "We set up a barbecue grill, and there is plenty of food. You can eat something together. Steve is a good cook."

Steve is her boyfriend.

Christa nodded first, "That's great. It's actually quite cold here, I thought there would be no one else but us."

"I thought so too!" Jenny smiled at her, then turned to call her boyfriend who was still trying to light the fire, "Steve! Are you done yet?"

"Quickly. Wait for me again." The man wiped the sweat from his forehead and replied.

"Xiali, go and help him." Christa held her small face, and said to Jenny with bright eyes after speaking, "Xiali is amazing. He will definitely do this, let him help."

An innocent little girl who fell in love.

I don't know what Mrs. Hudson will think when she finds out that each of her three residents is better than the other.

Jenny saw the young man with an unenthusiastic expression get up and walk towards Steve, his eyes seemed to pass over the girl's body, and there was imperceptible indulgence in the heavy eyes.

She withdrew her gaze, looked at the unconscious girl in front of her again, and smiled knowingly.

This couple was much more interesting than her and Steve.

Sherlock walked over here, Steve was in a state of desperation, the wind by the lake was too strong, and the fire had been blown out several times.

"You brought her here to propose?" Sherlock asked seemingly unintentionally while lighting the fire.

Steve wiped the sweat off his nose with his sleeve, "Yeah! How can you tell?"

"Simple. Because the engagement ring fell out of your pocket."

Steve looked down and saw that the small box containing the ring rolled down on the ground at some point, he quickly picked it up and smiled awkwardly.

"Actually, we were going to another place, which is full of our memories. I don't know why we were diverted here."

"Have you known each other for many years?" Sherlock continued the routine calmly.

"Of course. You and your girlfriend haven't known each other for long, have you? She doesn't look like an adult." Steve smiled meaningfully.

He casually glanced at the girl who was talking and laughing at Yanyan, and then turned his gaze back to the grill, "It's coming soon."

"Hey! The fire is really on fire now! Brother, okay!" Steve patted him on the shoulder and turned to call the two women who were chatting.

"Jenny, Krista! Come here, you guys! Sherlock has lit the fire!" Steve said, raising his voice.

The two women who were chatting and sorting out the ingredients stopped and walked towards the grill side by side.

Christa thought it was a little strange that Sherlock, who had almost zero skills other than solving crimes, could actually light a fire?Had she been caught in some kind of misunderstanding before.

She sat casually on the ground next to Jenny and Sherlock.

The two of them had eaten in the restaurant earlier, and they couldn't eat much at the moment, so the chat became the focus.

Krista smiled as Jenny and Steve spoke for two hours about their "romantic destiny for each other."

"Actually, you are very suitable." Jenny finished telling her own story, and finally expressed emotion to Christa and Sherlock.

Krista flipped the chicken breast, and said with a smile that couldn't tell if it was true or not: "We are also destined by fate."

Sherlock pushed aside the charcoal fire with a thin iron rod, and said almost at the same time as Christa: "Of course, we are made for each other."

The author has something to say: Although they are not together yet, they even have their child's name in my mind. (sigh)
