221. Rub rice with a bear
Sherlock Holmes was ready to rot this secret in his heart, after all, he could see that John Watson seemed to have some special feelings for his former false identity John Tolan, oh, not love, of course, but that kind of gratitude.
Sherlock didn't know that he had such a big role, he just told Watson's heart at the time, who knew that he would be so decisive to leave the comfortable and high-paying job, join the army and go to Afghanistan as a military doctor, you must know that many people also have the spirit of adventure, but they have not abandoned their previous life.
John Watson was no ordinary man.
In fact, Sherlock is still worried about one thing, he is very worried that Watson will have a different idea about himself, the word gratitude is easy for people to step into love, which is why many girls fall in love with heroes after saving beauty. Sherlock didn't want to taste the sour smell of love, and if he was talking about himself now, Watson wouldn't believe it, after all, in Peanut's heart he probably knew everything.
Sherlock was bitter in his heart, he would never tell this secret.
But what he didn't know was that there were some secrets that could not be kept secret forever, especially when the secret was still known to the bear children except Watson, and Sherlock later received the lesson of blood, which was probably a later story.
Sherlock was a little tired when he was lying on a bed, and he would only get a good night's sleep when a case was over later, and the feeling of sharing a bed with someone for the first time was not so annoying.
However, Sherlock is a person who likes to sleep in, and one of the last people to get up in Lestrade's house before this is Sherlock, but it is still related to the fact that Lestrade has always raised him as a child, and he wakes people up every day when he is ready to eat.
But unlike Sherlock, Watson was a soldier who had a strict schedule, and no matter how late he slept the night before, he would get up the next day according to his biological clock.
When Watson woke up, Sherlock was still there, the window of the room was closed tightly with the curtains, Watson fumbled with his phone to look at the time, eight o'clock in the morning, just enough to have a breakfast, and by the way, also moved his legs.
Watson is still very happy about the fact that his leg has recovered, at least he needs to see a psychiatrist recently, because he can find a job and a girlfriend with peace of mind because of the lameness solved. Watson still wanted to blog about last night's adventure and the case of this pink study.
This time it's not to express my feelings, I just want to simply record something.
He tiptoed out of bed, and shook his head when he saw Sherlock still sleeping with the quilt in his arms, if they slept so well in their barracks, the enemy would not know that they would come to the end, and they would definitely be cannon fodder in the end.
Before, Sherlock gave Watson a bit of a strong feeling, but now it seems that the sleeping Sherlock is really very different from the usual Sherlock.
Watson had quietly left the room, he needed to find out what to eat in the house, and where to cook, at least they both had to find a way to fill their stomachs in the morning.
It's just that Watson swept around the kitchen and found that there was not even bread in this house except for human organs, and everything he drank was coffee.
Watson silently closed the door of the refrigerator, he was not yet metamorphosed enough to eat human organs, so let's go out and buy something, probably need to buy the breakfast that has already been prepared, he observed that there was no place for cooking in the kitchen at all, even the microwave was full of human eyeballs, and if you wanted to grill sausages, there was only Sherlock's spray gun.
Watson sighed, if he wanted to be roommates with Sherlock, he would at least need to get used to it...... Human organs.
After Watson had bought breakfast and made coffee by the way, Sherlock came out of the bedroom in his robe and pajamas, and he looked at Watson, who was sitting next to the coffee table, when he was about to say why he was not at the table, and silently glanced at the dining table with those real equipment.
Sherlock coughed, "I'll clean it up." β
Put in order? Just now, Watson really wanted to clean up, but he found a problem, that is, there was no place to put those things at all, and the apartment was so messy that he couldn't find a place to start.
"Maybe we can buy a simpler table."
That's what Watson said, at least that way they wouldn't have to be crammed into the same room as Sherlock's real equipment.
Sherlock touched/touched his chin, this mention yì was not bad, he used to be called outside by himself, just take a bite casually, sometimes Lestrade will help bring him something to eat, and it is also solved on the sofa.
Now at least he is a roommate, and the two of them can't always eat on the sofa face to face, but Sherlock doesn't want to buy it himself, so it's time to ask Lestrade.
"Damn, I almost forgot about it, Greg told me to visit Scotland Yard today."
If it weren't for the thought of asking Lestrade for help, Sherlock would have deleted the fact that he was going to Scotland Yard, and when Watson heard that he was going to make a transcript, he thought for a while and asked, "Shall I go with me?" β
Sherlock thought for a moment and nodded, if Lestrade closes the case smoothly, he can still have dinner at Lestrade's house at noon, after all, today is Sunday, isn't it.
So Sherlock looked at Watson and nodded decisively and said, "Of course we went together, and by the way, I will take you to dinner." β
Sherlock didn't hesitate to say it, giving Watson the feeling of going to eat in a restaurant, he thought it was a bit inappropriate, and he was taken by Sherlock to eat as soon as he became a roommate.
He said to Sherlock, who had just come out of the kitchen with a cup of coffee, "I think it's a bit rude, I'd better forget about it." β
Sherlock sat on his couch and looked at Watson, "Believe me, if we don't go, in the future, Lestrade and the dead fat man will come by themselves, so it's better to take the initiative." β
Judging from the importance they attach to finding a roommate, the two of them will definitely come over in the future, so it is better to go to Lestrade's house for a meal in the open, and by the way, find Harold to help him find out about Moriarty.
As well as laughing at the dead fat man who may be at home with children today.
Sherlock thought the idea was perfect.
Watson couldn't argue with Sherlock, so he could only nod his head in agreement, and as for moving or something, he hoped that he would have time in the afternoon.
Lestrade probably understood what it was like to be roommates the day after McCroft and himself met, and then investigate the case together, and probably wait until the weekend to receive the news of their engagement, and he looked at Sherlock, who had generously brought Watson to Scotland Yard, as if he was going to kick people out.
Sherlock didn't see the eyes of his subordinates glaring at him, this man was always like this, never saying hello before coming.
Donovan stopped Sherlock and Watson, she looked Watson up and down, the person was obviously lame before, but now he has become no different from normal people, when did freaks also have the ability to heal.
"Freak, what are you doing again?"
Sherlock motioned to the office over there, "Your head of the family called me." β
Donovan gritted her teeth, she couldn't let go of what Sherlock saw about herself and Anderson yesterday, although Anderson and his wife divorced by agreement, but they didn't really divorce, and Sherlock didn't know how this person would laugh at them after seeing it.
The main thing is to mop the floor, damn it, when will he be blind once.
Lestrade looked at the confrontation between Donovan and Sherlock and didn't know that it was wrong, John Watson next to him obviously wanted to persuade the two but didn't know where to start, so Lestrade opened the door of his office and said loudly: "You two let me in." β
The two didn't seem to have much to do, and she was self-aware so she pondered for a moment to get out of the way so that Sherlock could go to Lestrade's office, and the man who was next to Sherlock nodded at her, she looked at the backs of the two and said that at least this one was a little more polite than Sherlock.
Sherlock, who was all too familiar with Lestrade's office, closed the door and went to Lestrade's desk and pulled out a chair and sat down, telling Watson not to stand either. Lestrade looked at such a "conscious" Sherlock and sighed helplessly, he was used to it, wasn't he.
"I asked you to take notes, not to have you come to quarrel with Donovan."
Sherlock says that this time it wasn't his own start, but that Donovan was just angry that he had broken the matter between her and Anderson yesterday.
"This time it has nothing to do with me, and I don't want to come over and quarrel."
Lestrade looked at Sherlock helplessly, and then decided to ignore him for the time being, so that Sherlock could stop for a while, he turned his gaze to John Watson, who was sitting on the other side, nodded to him, and said, "Hello, Dr. Watson." β
This is obviously a respectful title, and Watson didn't know about the relationship between Lestrade and Sherlock and maintained Sherlock over there, but now it seems that people are laughing at it.
"Hello, Mr. Inspector."
Reistrade recalled what McCroft said to himself, and it is estimated that Sherlock had already told SΓΉ Watson about himself and Mycroft and his relationship, so this time Reistrade did not hide it and said: "I'm glad that you can get along with Sherlock more pleasantly, to be honest, I was worried that Sherlock would starve to death before he moved out, but now after seeing you, I'm not worried at all." β
A doctor and a soldier, John Watson has a strong sense of responsibility, which allows him to help them take good care of Sherlock, at least not to let Sherlock do something illegal. Or literally starve yourself to death in your apartment.
"I'm here to talk about the case, not to listen to your nagging."
Lestrade looked at Sherlock angrily, this is a typical three-day untiling, "I'll ask Donovan to help you make a note, you can go out now, I have something I want to talk to Dr. Watson." β
Lestrade added a sentence in his heart about Guan Yu.
Watson was a little flattered, he didn't know what this Sherlock's nominal family wanted to talk to him, which made him feel much more frightened than facing the confused Mycroft before.
Sherlock had tried to drag Watson away, but when he saw the way Lestrade looked at him, he withdrew his hand, and Greg Lestrade treated him like a child who had not grown up, as he had done with Mrs. Hudson, and he probably wanted to tell Watson something.
So Sherlock thought about it for a moment and then turned away, anyway, if Lestrade didn't talk about it now, the dead fat man would have robbed people for his wife.
Watson looked at Lestrade in front of him and scratched his head, and said to himself what he was going to say.
Lestrade brought him a cup of coffee and sat back in his seat, "Dr. John Watson, is that?" It's a pleasure to meet you, and I haven't greeted you before because I'm busy with the case. β
Watson thought that Lestrade's words were too official, and that the official gave him the feeling of going to meet his lover's parents, and he sat up straight and let himself dispel the idea.
"Sherlock must have told you about our ...... relationship, I should be his brother. β
Lestrade wouldn't admit that he was his sister-in-law, which revealed the fact that he hadn't kept Mycroft under him, so he preferred to use his brother's identity to describe his relationship with Sherlock. Watson nodded, and by the way, he had provoked the wolf.
"Sherlock likes you very much."
Looking at Watson's dilated pupils, Reistrade immediately explained that this liking was not the kind of liking he had in mind.
"It's not the kind of liking you think, Sherlock doesn't like to make friends, and he hasn't had any friends in years, so I was surprised when he took you with him."
Watson twitched the corners of his mouth, he actually really wanted to know how Sherlock had come over for so many years, without friends? Aren't all human beings in need of human interaction?
"I always thought that Sherlock had no lovers, but I didn't think that friends were ...... too"
Lestrade shrugged, "Trust me, this is too normal for the Sherlock Holmes brothers, the average person is a goldfish in their eyes, only seven seconds of memory and stupidity. β
The word goldfish is already a true word, and he is glad that the two brothers did not position themselves as goldfish at first.
"Goldfish?! Well, should I say it's very Sherlock-esque. β
"Of course."
Sherlock's arrogance can actually be seen from this goldfish, so it's normal for such a person to have no friends, and conversely if there are many friends, it's called abnormal.
But Sherlock's shortcomings are that he can't say a word or two, and he's not used to fitting in with other people, and he's so willful that he can tear down the house. Sherlock had a history of injecting coca/caine before, and seven percent of the solvent seemed to him to be a way to be able to make his brain think, and I haven't seen him resurgence in the last five years, but it's not impossible. So Dr. Watson, this is going to require you and Mrs. Hudson to help us supervise Sherlock. β
This is self-evident, Watson then nodded, he didn't have a good impression of this kind of thing, even seven percent of the solvent was very dangerous in Watson's opinion, and he would promise Lestrade to help favor Sherlock.
In the future, Watson has been fulfilling this obligation.
"By the way, another point is that Sherlock's mouth is unforgiving, if he is really annoying one day, believe me to punch someone down."
After a pause, Lestrade continued, "I believe you have what it takes, Dr. Watson. β
The corners of Watson's mouth were numb with laughter, he thought that Sherlock must have a grudge against the Lestrades, otherwise the very handsome detective opposite would not have said such a thing as beating people down, is this still the solution given by his brother?
It turns out that this is the only way for Sherlock.
When Sherlock had finished his transcript with a stinking face, he knocked on the door of Lestrade's office, and the damned Lestrade must have said something bad about him, no different than he had said to Mrs. Hudson, as if he had always been a child.
He just hasn't been in love, and he knows much more than normal people in other aspects.
Lestrade pointed to the door and said to Watson, "I wonder if you like football?" When can we make an appointment to drink and watch the game. β
"Of course, that's my pleasure."
Finally Lestrade said to Watson, "Thank you very much for saving that little bastard Sherlock, otherwise he would have done something to eat the poison." β
"It's not ......," Watson wanted to retort, but thinking that he couldn't hide it, he had to admit it, "Well, Sherlock really should have done it." β
"This matter has already been settled with Mycroft, so no, there is no need to worry."
"Thank you."
The two shook hands politely, Watson looked at the fiancΓ© of Sherlock's brother and felt a little envious, after all, Sherlock's family is very, very concerned about him, although Sherlock looked like I didn't care, but it also made Watson a little jealous, thinking about his relationship with Harry.
It's hard to put into words.
After taking the transcript, Sherlock left Scotland Yard with someone, he had just texted Tony to ask if they were at home, and by the way, he told Tony about going back to dinner, and Tony immediately said that he would tell Hannibal to prepare two more servings of food, and it seemed that they all knew that Sherlock had found a roommate.
Sherlock took a taxi with Watson to Lestrade's house, and the more annoying thing was that the dead fat man was also at home, and it was Tony who opened the door for him.
Tony looked at Sherlock, who he hadn't seen for a long time, and immediately pounced, and by the way, he also paid attention to Watson beside Sherlock, Sherlock patted Tony's head, and then watched Tony pull the corner of his coat and let Sherlock squat down so that it was easy to bite people's ears.
"Is this what McCroft said about your roommate?"
"Mycroft has a lot of mouths."
Tony covered his mouth and laughed, he winked at Watson and said, "Welcome to the Lestrade house, this gentleman." β
Tony Lestrade's politeness gives Sherlock the feeling that he is hiding a knife in his smile.
Watson was actually a little surprised when he saw Tony, he just habitually said thank you, I don't know who this is, Lestrade's child or McCroft's child? But judging by Tony's appearance, he doesn't look like anyone else.
Sherlock only remembered at this time that he had forgotten something yesterday, he had forgotten about the fact that there were a few bear children in the Lestrade family, and then he dragged Watson directly without saying anything just now. Tony snickered at Watson with a confused look, how to deal with Sherlock's roommate is funny, it doesn't seem to be shrewd at all.
Tony winks at Sherlock, who pats him on the head and lets him in.
Before he and Watson officially meet all the bear children at home, maybe Watson should be given a defensive shot, about the fact that there is not much else but more children in Lestrade.
"Ahem, I forgot to tell you yesterday, you just met Tony Lestrade, is Lestrade's sixth adopted son, their family plus Mycroft's adopted Will is a total of nine children, the eldest three of them go to school outside, and the rest are at home."
Watson was shocked, a total of nine children were all adopted? It seems that Lestrade is stronger than he thinks, no wonder he can restrain Sherlock.
"Little Xiali, how long do you want to rub in front of the door?"
Instead of a shirt or a suit, Mycroft wore a soft/fluffy sweater today, and Sherlock knew that Lestrade also had an identical low-key couple shirt that the two of them bought.
Speaking of the gradual increase in couple shirts since the relationship between the two people was confirmed, but most of them are suits that ordinary people can't see anything, except for a few family clothes, which I really can't wait to wear exactly the same.
Sherlock gave Mycroft a roll of his eyes and led Watson to the living room.
Watson looked at the bear child sitting on the sofa and was still in shock, and Mycroft stood there against the wall and said that Sherlock also had a hundred secrets, and he actually forgot to tell Watson about such an important matter.
Sherlock didn't know how to introduce Watson, so it was only McCroft who helped, and he said to Little Lestrade: "This is Sherlock's roommate, Mr. John Watson." β
Little Lestrade had known about this Mr. John Watson, of course, not because of the case that had been in the past, but that this morning Mycroft had said something about Mr. Watson.
Little Reistrade greeted Watson one by one, and in their opinion, if it was Sherlock's roommate, it should be their friend, of course, this generation is a little problematic.
Watson looked at the little Les Traids who greeted him one by one, they looked really beautiful, in fact, Watson likes children, he hopes that he can have one child or two or more, and then he will teach them not to have an awkward relationship like himself and Harry, but to live together with love.
He found that there was a girl among the six children in the house, and that this girl was so beautiful that Sherlock whispered to him, "The only girl in the family, the little princess sapphire of the Lestrade family." β
It should be said that it is a real sapphire little princess.
Sherlock knew Raven's secret for a very short time, but the day he saw the truth/phase was still brought with him, and Sherlock affirmed that little Raven was a human variant, a mutant who was more powerful and had more abilities.
That's how he defined Raven, but what Sherlock didn't know was that he was actually very close to the answer.
Watson raised his hand and carefully said hi to all the bear children, and the little Lestrades bit their ears to make Watson a little worried, but he didn't know the content of Little Lestrades's biting of the ears The fact that he was more gentle and soft.
Harold sat on the couch, talking about why the name John Watson was so familiar, maybe he needed to find some time to investigate, he didn't want this person to be in their house or Sherlock's undercover agent.
Just when Harold was puzzled, Sherlock came to his side, Harold pushed his glasses and looked at Sherlock, obviously this person had something to ask himself, Harold took the initiative to speak, "What do you need my help with, Sherlock?" β
They were so familiar that it was really hard for him to hide from the clever Harold, and Sherlock stopped grinding and chirping, and he said to Harold, "I want you to help me find someone." β
Harold tilted his head, who is Sherlock going to investigate, is this Mr. John Watson?
So Harold gestured with his eyes to see if Sherlock was Watson, Sherlock shook his head, Watson's information was probably already found out by Mycroft, and if he wanted it, he could get it directly from Anthea.
"You should know that Lestrade has been working on the suicide case, and the murderer told me a name, and he said that the person was interested in me."
People who are interested in Sherlock, Harold touches Will who is sitting on the carpet with his foot, Hannibal has already gone to prepare their lunch, so now only Will can help, who is interested in Sherlock, this is not good news.
Will knew that Harold was trying to hear something, so he focused, and Harold motioned for Sherlock to tell who he wanted him to help look for.
So they heard Sherlock say a name they knew all too well, Moriarty.
Harold immediately frowned, Moriarty? Jim Moriarty interested in Sherlock? Shouldn't it be said that this Hannibal cultivated pervert has finally changed to an opponent, but this opponent is still their family.
Will also frowned, he heard the name of Moriati, the man who wanted to find Hannibal, and the man who created a lot of troublesome cases in Hannibal's account?
Sherlock looked at Harold's furrowed brow and asked, "You know the name." β
Harold knew that he could not fool Sherlock, but he could not divulge everything about Hannibal, so he replied to Sherlock, "I have heard of it." β
At that time, Sherlock didn't suspect anything too much, if Hannibal was the most mature one in Little Lestrade, then Harold was the one who first came into contact with society, he saw all kinds of people/colors through the Internet, and also saw all kinds of things/colors, except for people who never used electronic products, no one could escape Harold's "eyes".
"Tell me what you know."
Sherlock wondered who this person could be remembered by Harold.
"If the murderer of the case sues you this time, probably this Moriarti has a lot to do with the case, and it is also an accident that I found out about him, I think it would be better for you to ask Mycroft to come and listen to it, because he should also know this person."
Hannibal once said that he reminded Mycroft of this man once, and after that he didn't know if Mycroft was interested or not.
Mycroft also knew that this made Sherlock even more curious about what kind of person his so-called admirer was, and he guessed that it should be a dangerous person, otherwise it would not have attracted the attention of the British government.
When Mycroft saw Sherlock's eyes, he knew that this man was looking for him, so he came over and motioned for Sherlock to speak, and then Sherlock hesitated and said, "Do you know Moriarty?" β
"Moriarty? Jim Moriarty? β
How did Sherlock suddenly know the name, but when McCroft looked at Sherlock further, he knew that he didn't know the full name, but heard the surname. They have always been watchers about Moriati, and this is not a worrying person, but because what he has done has not further threatened the security of the country, Mycroft has always treated people as casual clowns.
This sudden hearing of Jim Moriarty's name from Sherlock's mouth really shocked Mycroft.
"Jim Moriarty, is that his name?"
Even if his full name is Sherlock, he has never heard of it, in fact, it is normal that Sherlock has not heard of it, because this person only likes to work behind his back, not a person who likes to stand on the surface, the people he contacts are generally through the Internet or telephone, he is a criminal consultant and a sponsor of many criminals, in fact, Sherlock does not know that many of the cases he has handled before have a lot to do with this Moriarty.
"Where did you know that name?"
If even Sherlock knew the name, it would prove that the man was being dishonest again.
"Yesterday that brother told me that this Moriarti is very interested in me."
This time Mycroft really frowned, as far as he knew, Moriarty had been tracking down the psychiatrist called "Will Graham", and the two had even had a confrontation, since when did this Moriarty also have an interest in Sherlock.
"Crime consultant, this Moriarti likes to call himself that, he once founded an underground violent website, you should remember that when the Dad man was arrested, the so-called most beautiful dancer posted information on the website belonged to Moriarty."
Sherlock was glad that Harold didn't name the murderer, otherwise he might have been discovered by Watson, but it was all in 2006, could it be that Moriarty started to commit crimes at that time?
"It was at that time that Moriarty first came into our sights, but he only started a website at first, and he didn't commit any crimes, and he wasn't called a criminal consultant, which is the name he gave himself later."
Mycroft continued to say that Harold's words were at that time when they began to find ways to spy on Moriarty, but this man was very cunning, and they often lost people in the cunning rabbit hole.
"And then there's the ogre case with Moriati's shadow behind it, and the case that punished the guilty."
Sherlock had handled both cases, and he thought that the two were clever and seemed to have a promoter behind them.
"So he's eyeing me?"
Harold nodded, the man who liked to be challenging, and it seemed that he was gradually starting to shift his attention from Hannibal's false identity and instead began to care about Sherlock, who had been an indirect opponent.
"Moriarti is a dangerous person, he has always played the person behind the scenes, and the crime has always been petty, it is not under my jurisdiction, and I just sent someone to monitor him."
No one said anything to Sherlock about Will Graham, after all, they were talking about Moriarty, weren't they?
"A little fight?"
Watson suddenly interjected, that perverted/perverted brother has already killed four people, if it is really this Moriati behind it, then can this still be called a petty fight?
"John."
Sherlock called his name, which seemed to McCroft to be petty, and he was more concerned with the extremist groups than with some so-called criminal consultant.
"If Moriarti is interested in you, I'm sure he'll find you soon."
Harold glanced at Sherlock, Sherlock raised an eyebrow, if he didn't have Harold by his side, maybe he wouldn't be able to know himself, but now it's different, he said to Harold, "I need all the information you can find about this Jim Moriarty." β
Harold nodded, this is easy to do, and he can give it to him in the evening.
But the only pity is that he doesn't know what this Moriati looks like, and all he can give is an analysis of Moriati and general information.
But speaking of the dancer's case reminded Harold of the company he had acquired, Adrian Tomlinson's company, a pharmaceutical company.
He remembered that the name of Sherlock was John, and while he was checking the staff, there was a researcher named John who quit his job and was supposedly enlisted in the army.
Could this be ...... Is it a coincidence?
Harold took advantage of Sherlock's thoughts on Moriarty to check the company's personnel changes over the years, and in 2006 there was indeed a John Watson who left the company for the following reasons...... Joining the army, the main thing is that this John Watson used to be John Tolan's mentor.
He looked at Watson sitting next to him in surprise, there are really many coincidences in the world.
Harold put on a smiling face, of course this funny thing had to be shared with the brothers, and it looked like there was another drama.
