5. The Goldfish of London 05

Sherlock's pale pupils stared straight at Erin, those eyes were bright and perceptive, very oppressive, and often uncomfortable.

Erin thought for a moment and asked tentatively, "Do you want to know what that is?" โ€

Sherlock moved his fingers.

Erin assumed that he was asking, and she explained briefly: "This is [incantation], but you can rest assured that I just used an improved version, and it didn't add any suffix, it just made it impossible for you to pass the information out, and the rest didn't hurt." So, I hope you can be courteous too. To be honest, this meal was the most disturbing meal I've ever had. "Erin still knows a little bit about the situation she finds herself in, thanks to the ghosts that come and go nearby." The strong dragon does not suppress the snake", before fully understanding the situation, Erin chose to use a modified version of the spell.

"You know?" Sherlock didn't really like the "you" in Irene's words, and he wasn't in the same league as the fat dead man.

"I don't know anything." Erin, who didn't admit it after eating, said a little scoundrel, and she felt tired from the temptation, "Soโ€”" Erin reached for her coat, and she felt it was time to say goodbye.

At this time, Angelo saw the situation and said embarrassedly, "Are you leaving?" Just in time for us to close! โ€

Then, Sherlock and Erin are kicked out by the restaurateur. Angelo, who thought he had come with a strong and effective assist, quietly squeezed his eyes at Sherlock, and Sherlock, who didn't know why, squeezed out half of the smirk. When she noticed Erin again, her pupils narrowed slightly, and she didn't know when an extra black scarf appeared around her neck.

It's too ...... Amazing!

Sherlock's brain was running fast and efficiently, but in an instant, he made a decision-

"How do you feel about the violin?"

โ€ฆโ€ฆ

โ€ฆโ€ฆ

Angelo was dumbfounded as he looked at the couple who had left hand in hand and planned to live together, and he felt that he no longer had to feel sorry for Sherlock's emotional intelligence.

As for the mysterious gentleman who did not appear and provided Sherlock with the video, he witnessed the whole process through the surveillance screen, his expression was solemn, and his back molars began to hurt again.

On the other side of the spectrum, the consulting detective, who is uncomfortable without solving the puzzle, has almost all his attention on her as he walks back to Baker Street with Erin. When he arrived at Baker Street almost five minutes later, Sherlock had to admit in frustration that if he hadn't known in advance that Erin was different from ordinary people, and the "special sight" he had seen in that minute, he would have only thought that Erin was just a goldfish who was a little special but still a goldfish.

After all the way and then all the way, Sherlock took out Sherlock's acting skills and asked Erin: "You don't seem to be anxious, but your mother will be worried if you are gone, right?" โ€

Erin showed a tangled expression: "I'm afraid he's crying faint now." โ€

"Him?" Sherlock was keen to get to the point.

"Well, my dad, and I don't have a mom."

"Your dad? I can tell that you grew up in a single-parent family, but your family is very good, and the coat you wear and the watch you wear on your hand speaks for that. In addition, the shirt you are wearing that I can't see the material is handmade, according to your situation, it is unlikely that you will find someone else to make it by hand, most likely an acquaintance, but I don't know if you have found it, your shirt is very intimate, and it is also embroidered with a pattern in the place where the shirt is not obvious, obviously someone who knows you very well, it can only be family, most likely your mother. Now you sue me, that's your father? I knew I had to make a mistake. โ€

Sherlock said this, but the look of distress on his face was not at all like he didn't mind.

Erin also looked at the entanglement of the past, which was still a rare and vivid expression she revealed. It's not that she doesn't have an expression, it's just that she is relatively calm at other times, and even when she saw the video of the big change, she didn't have the panic and anxiety that a normal person should have.

- But considering that she is surrounded by a group of ghosts, can handle it calmly, and walks on the street like a normal person who can't see ghosts, I know that this calm style is not pretended, but experienced. Now there may be a factor that cannot be ignored, that is, Lao Ai...... Daddy.

Erin silently spoke: "Um, my scarf was also knitted by him, if you want to know. โ€

Sherlock: "......"

It was getting late, and without waking the landlord, Mrs. Hudson, they went straight to the second floor. The living room was cluttered, with boxes placed casually and paper flying on the floor. Looking at the kitchen on one side, it is more like a real room, with all kinds of test tubes, distillers and other test equipment stacked on the dining table, and a skull next to the fireplace.

Erin fixed her gaze on the skull, and Sherlock followed her gaze, "That's my friend, and when I say it's a friend, I mean talking to it enlivens my mind, just like talking to you at the scene of a crime." โ€

I don't know if it's an illusion, but he spoke faster, which made Erin have to take a little more time to react, and she showed a bright smile: "Great! Although you are the most calm I have ever seen, and you invited me to stay with you for a while, I only intend to stay here for one night. However, now that you seem to have more guts than I thought, then I can rest assured, I think we will be in good tune. โ€

It's great that this funny man is not "Ye Gong Good Dragon"!

Erin thought for a moment and added, "And you're surprisingly clean here." โ€

"Aren't there any ghosts?" Sherlock seemed to be waiting for Erin to say this, and almost as soon as Erin's words fell, Sherlock finished speaking, and the tone was mostly excited.

As for Erin's reaction?

She thought about it seriously, and then she was puzzled: "It stands to reason that it shouldn't be so clean." On the way from the restaurant, I saw no less than a hundred ghosts, but the more I walked here, there were only two or three ghosts. Besides, since you have a skull here, there is a good chance that the owner will follow it, but no. โ€

That's what Erin didn't say before, the living environment here is much better than she imagined.

Sherlock: "......" is good, and now there is another question. From the time he met Erin, there were too many questions entrenched in Sherlock's mind, and as he learned more and was opened to new worlds one after another, more questions followed. Although I was stunned by Irene's [Curse] before, after knowing that there was no danger to my life, the curiosity of the consulting detective fermented to an unparalleled level.

It can be said that the appearance of Erin is really the savior of the Death Star people who are bored.

And this new question, the consulting detective can't think of a reason, after all, he has only been in contact with the new world for less than an hour, and the information is not enough, but Erin is obviously an expert in this area, and she proposed a solution without changing her face: "I can go to them and ask." โ€

"Can I follow along?" Sherlock immediately came up with a more "shocking" idea.

His current idea is, in Chinese, not to enter the tiger's den to get a tiger. Or, if there is a difficulty, there is no difficulty, and if there is no difficulty, you must also go up. Ahem, anyway, he's a warrior who isn't afraid of death.

When Erin heard this, she looked Sherlock up and down. He was tall, but he was thin, his face was very pale, and his towering cheekbones could be sharpened. Of course, this is all appearance, in Erin's eyes, she can still see his essence more, and at this time, her dark pupils are even more bottomless.

In the end, Erin came to the conclusion: "You're a little weird. โ€

Sherlock immediately asked, "What do you mean?" โ€

Erin couldn't explain it to him, so she told him, "It means you can't see ghosts anymore for a while." โ€

Sherlock was silent for a moment, and then pointed out a point: "You didn't have such concerns before, I mean you must have assessed my body just now, although I don't know what the difference between what you see in your eyes and what I can see, but what I don't know." But when you were in the restaurant before, you didn't do that, you just did something for me to see. Look at the change in your expression, I'm right. โ€

Erin: "...... To be honest, you remind me of a word like this, [sharp eyes], which describes people with sharp eyes and the ability to distinguish between truth and falsehood. ""Fire eyes and golden eyes", an idiom exclusive to Sun Dasheng, Erin said it in Chinese, but the later explanation became English.

Sherlock frowned and wrinkled the folds in his forehead, he had never encountered such a reaction. Such a straightforward praise or something, it still makes Mr. Detective uncomfortable, as for whether he is secretly happy in his heart, only he knows, maybe you can ask the corners of his mouth that are quietly raised.

But after such a hiccup, the matter of going to hell was delayed. Originally, Erin didn't plan to ask now, there was enough that had happened today, and she also needed time to calm down and settle down.

The same is true for Mr. Detective, who is more curious.

Baker Street is falling silent, and tomorrow will be a new day.

โ€•โ€•Well, there is one more thing that needs to be put on the agenda, and that is to learn Chinese! That's really ...... Loved!
