53. Born a pair of 06

"Linlin, she was the one who helped me before." After a "guest-to-behold" meal on Baker Street, Erin and Eye returned to the hotel where they were staying. It was so coincidental that when Ai Ye was walking around, he met the young lady who helped him enthusiastically, and when he invited someone to come up and sit down this time, the girl did not refuse, and then Ai Ye introduced this girl to his precious girl as a matter of course.

Erin's expression didn't seem to change, but Miss Moriarty, who had been staring at her, didn't miss her slightly narrowed pupils, and he stretched out his hand to say hello simply: "Hi~"

Erin had a polite smile on her face and spoke English very fluently: "It's a pleasure to meet you, and thank you for your help." ”

Moriarty also acted with Erin, and he could also speak simple Chinese, but the pronunciation was not so standard. Ai Ye originally liked this very motivated young man, and now his good impression of him doubled - well, Sherlock spoke Chinese quite fluently, but Ai Ye said that it was unscientific - Ai Ye also corrected Miss Moriarty's pronunciation, Gao Leng Fan was not so sufficient, and took the time to transmit to his precious girl: "Lin Lin opened her eyes wide and saw clearly, what is his behavior called, it is completely a door-to-door provocation, it is simply crazy!" ”

- Well done!

Erin ignored her father's message to her, and after Moriarty left with a shy smile after two minutes before saying that she was leaving, she hesitated for ten seconds and decisively followed.

Moriarty was not surprised that Erin would catch up, and looked at Erin with a smile: "Hmmm, I have to say, Miss Ai, you always give me surprises, you don't know how happy I am to see you again." ”

"I can see it," said Erin after a pause, "your sincerity." ”

Moriarty could hear Erin's words, so he didn't feel half embarrassed by his current outfit, but instead arranged the black scarf that covered the Adam's apple, and said apologetic: "My fault, but to avoid your dear boyfriend, always have to do some disguise, don't you?" So, I made such a big sacrifice to meet you this time, I sincerely invite you to dinner, let's have an open and honest conversation, well, little Jim has been looking forward to this conversation for a long time, so you won't let the cute little Jim down, dear Irene~"

Erin didn't speak immediately.

Moriarty furrowed his brows, and said aggrievedly like a little boy who didn't get a toy: "I'm really inviting you sincerely, you can't refuse me!" He said and approached Erin without refusal, blinking at his big wet eyes that seemed innocent, "You know what? I like Mr. Ai very much. ”

Moriarty was delighted to find a crack in Irene's calm expression, and although it was only for a moment, it was enough. He smiled, showing his white teeth, "You're going to be a good girl, aren't you?" Daddy prefers good girls~"

Erin's hand clenched in her coat pocket and gave Moriarty a deep look, "As you wish, Mr. Moriarty." ”

Moriarty flattened his mouth: "Don't be so rusty, sweetheart, I'm sure we'll get along." He said and became happy again, "I can't wait for our dinner, so please allow me to go back and get ready, Seeyouverysoon, girl~" He swaggered out, just took two steps and then stepped back, looking studious and enterprising, "Hmmm, 'respectful is better than obeying' in the context above, right?" Chinese is really interesting. ”

This time he was really gone.

As everyone knows, after he left, Erin lowered her head and rolled her eyes fiercely. Of course, he didn't forget to send paper birds to follow him.

Ai Ye, who was taken as a hostage by Moriarty as a threat to Erin, waited for his baby girl with strange excitement, and he couldn't wait to ask: "Linlin, you and Xiao Mo didn't fight, did you?" Ahem, what did you say? ”

There was a crack in Erin's expression, and she said slowly, "It's nothing, it's just that he said he likes you." ”

Ai Ye: "...... Skittish! ”

"Who's to say it isn't?" Irene had met Moriarty face-to-face once before, when Moriarty was dressed as an otaku, but Irene still saw through the cobwebs behind his back, so the two had no substantive conversation. In addition, she had watched an episode of a TV show in which he appeared, and he only revealed his true colors when he strapped a bomb to John at the end and confronted Sherlock in the pool. However, Erin didn't know much about him, but it was all theoretical, and it was the first time she had a substantive conversation with Moriarty. She had to admit that she was sucked off, and agree with her boyfriend's evaluation of him, madman, don't add the "elegant" in front.

The surprises are yet to come.

Moriarty asks Erin out for dinner, and Erin attends.

It was a fine dining restaurant, and it was full of diners. They weren't half curious when Erin came in, Erin quickly swept over them, narrowing her eyes slightly, and just then Moriarty, who was finally back to herself, walked over with a cheerful step, "Oh, don't worry, they won't bother us." ”

He stretched out his arms as he spoke, and his tone was as cheerful as his pace just now: "Come on, beautiful lady." ”

Erin reached out and grabbed Moriarty's arm after a second of pause, Moriarty looked happier, he took Erin into the seat, stared at Irene with his cheeks, and said: "Please forgive a boy who has been looking forward to a new playmate for a long time, little Jim is just too excited~"

Erin frowned slightly at the words in Moriarty's words, but soon relaxed, Moriarty let out a "hmm", and the glint of interest in his eyes became stronger: "I like smart people, God knows why there are so many fools in this world!" Playing with them always takes my interest off me, can you imagine how happy I was when I discovered this extraordinary genius of Sherlock? I showed what I was capable of, I relieved so many people, so many little troubles, and even gave up thirty million, just to get his attention and let him come and play. Well, well, I think it's worth the money. ”

Moriarty was intoxicated with her own words, and Erin remained expressionless, but her mind couldn't help but fly. To be honest, she usually teases her boyfriend about it, but it was herself, and now she says it personally from another party, which always feels very subtle.

And at this time, Moriarty finally remembered the guest he had invited, and he licked his lips: "Oh, did I say too much about Sherlock?" You have to forgive me, I'm a huge fan of him, and I can't help but talk about him. Now, let's talk about you, no, no, no," Moriarty shook his head repeatedly, "you're boyfriend and girlfriend now, and you can't seem to get around your boyfriend." Okay, let's talk about it together~ Let's talk about the romantic love story of a lonely boy who always wants to show off himself, and a girl who is so smart that he thinks he is special. Romantic, I love romance. ”

Later, Moriarty's tone became exaggerated, like the recitation of a stage play.

Erin made a deaf gesture.

Moriarty saw that Erin was still calm and composed, and did not show half a flaw, he blinked his eyes twice, and his smile became bigger and bigger: "Let's start with the first romantic encounter, I remember that it was a case of imitation of Jack the Ripper's revenge, when the fools of Scotland Yard had nothing else to do, so they invited the boy, which would have been his stage, but there was a surprise that a girl provided information about the murderer before him, which of course attracted the boy's attention."

Now that we have a romantic first encounter, then the next is even more interesting, the girl in trouble, the promise of love, the pain of loss, and now the happiness of redemption, oh - dear Charlie is completely in love with you, isn't she? What's next? Throw him the puzzle and watch him play to his heart's content? Of course he will do that to please you! I have to say, Erin, you're the prettiest spy I've ever seen, perfect~"

Moriarty applauded, and the applause was particularly striking in a restaurant so quiet that only the occasional sound of knives and forks on plates and wine glasses touching each other was heard, but not a single guest in the entire restaurant looked sideways.

Erin lowered her eyes, hiding the love that was about to be concealed in her eyes, and when she opened her eyes again, her eyes were calm and calm: "I must say, Mr. Moriarty, this is not only a romantic love story. ”

"No, it's a fact, dear." Moriarty muttered as if reading a narration, and then he applauded again, "Let's talk while we eat, believe me, I like to peel back the layers of disguise that hide the facts, usually I can't have fun, but you surprised me, very surprised, you should listen to the nickname I gave you, 'Thesurprise'~"

At this time, a waiter came, and Moriarty took the menu and eagerly recommended the dishes to Erin, like a considerate gentleman, and winked at Erin at the end with his big charming eyes, "Oh, I hope that the guests will be happy in the end." He seemed to feel incredibly confident that he would get what he wanted in the end.

Next, Moriarty shows Erin how he peels back the layers of truth and disguises, and shows Irene how she was considered a spy by Moriarty.

"I've been following you, and finally the hard work paid off, and I found your true information. You did a few things for your government, and when you went to study at MIT, a U.S. nuclear bomb-related project was forced to be shelved, and no one would suspect that a clean college student studying in the United States was involved, and I have to say that you did a great job that time. ”

Erin's expression fluctuated, and Moriarty keenly grasped it, and he licked his canine teeth with some excitement, and then said: "This time, the trap was set up from the beginning, waiting for our poor and lovely 'TheVirgin' Charlie to come in, I have to say that the beginning of the artificial case is very creative." And then to the later fake death escape, and the high-profile return, wow, dear, you are like a very patient spider, forming a web early, waiting for the prey to stick to the web, and finally waiting for him to be paralyzed and capture him in one fell swoop. ”

Erin couldn't help but tug at the corners of her mouth: "Mr. Moriarty, consult the criminal, are you talking about yourself?" ”

"Do you feel that way? We have a good idea of how to capture Xiali. Moriarty held her cheeks and made herself look like a flower, and looking at Irene was like looking at a piece of jade.

Erin raised her eyebrows, "What do you mean by that?" ”

"Really sharp girl, it's okay to sue you, anyway, this plan has been nullified. Before I find out who you really are after you're gone, I've prepared a great gift for Sherlock and another Mr. Holmes, Theiceman. It's another collaborator of mine, oh, your English name is the same, which shows that we are so fate~" Moriarty said in a long tone.

Irene gave Moriarty a deep look, and then her gaze fell on the red wine offered by the waiter, the garnet red wine exuded a plump and delicate aroma, and said casually: "You want me to be your collaborator?" ”

β€œBingo!” Moriarty snapped his fingers and leaned forward, his voice sounding seductive under the crystal lamps hanging in the dining room, "You'll be my perfect collaborator, my dear, you're already tempted, aren't you?" Let me think about it, you knew me from the beginning, and you recognized me - no one had ever found me before that, even our dear consulting detective only found out about me after I played with him - not to mention how you found me, that means that you are indeed very smart, but the government behind you did not know about me, and you did not sue them, did you? ”

Moriarty's eyebrows fluttered, he looked excited, and although he said rhetorical questions later, he used a very firm tone.

Erin was about to be convinced by him that she was a spy for a government organization, and she chuckled, "So what, no so what?" ”

"I can free you from the organization that has imprisoned your talents, or send you to a higher position. In addition, it seems that your espionage mission is going very smoothly, so Mr. Ai will be allowed to come to London with you, he loves you very much, I can see that it is really enviable. Moriarty said meaningfully, his expression even happier after noticing Erin's subconscious pursed lips. Hitting snakes and hitting seven inches, Moriarty has always been well aware of this truth.

Moriarty looked at Erin, who was lost in thought, and took a sip of red wine triumphantly, knowing that he had won again.

Sure enough, after half a minute, Erin's back had been straight for a moment, but soon she straightened her back even straighter, and she couldn't hear anything emotional: "What do you want?" ”

"After giving Holmes a big gift, he broke his heart with our great consulting detectiveβ€”" Moriarty said and made a gesture of Xizi's heart, and Irene immediately sneered, "You say that, I have to wonder if you like Sherlock Holmes, Mr. Moriarty." ”

"We're fateful rivals, and I just want him to play the big chapter with all his heart." Moriarty's face flashed with a hint of fanaticism and yearning, and then he puffed up his face again, "And your storage zΓ i distracted him, which is not good." Of course, I promise you that after that, you will have a wider world waiting for you to conquer and set foot in peace, and I am very optimistic about your growth, Irene! ”

Erin didn't say anything, she took a sip of red wine from her glass, and Moriarty took a sip from her glass, which seemed to be a real pleasure for the guests.

After Irene left the restaurant, she took a taxi to Baker Street.

When she came to the living room on the second floor, she couldn't hold back any longer, and laughed in her boyfriend's arms, tears streaming into her eyes, "Oh my God, Sherlock, did you hear that?" Mr. M's imagination, haha, he said it so surely, so much, I almost believe it, haha. ”

Sherlock rolled his eyes.

That's right, after Moriarty invited Erin to dinner, Erin asked Paper Bird to inform her boyfriend that there was a good show to watch in the evening. It is true that the restaurant from the chef to the waiters to the guests in the restaurant are all Moriarty's people, but she really can't stand the unnatural means used by Irene, she not only filmed their meeting, but also transmitted it to her mobile phone, well, it is now Sherlock is using the phone, and Sherlock is using his laptop to watch the whole time.

Erin laughed enough, she really endured it all the way, and then rubbed in front of Sherlock's face, blinking her moist eyes, "Dear Charlie, how are my acting skills?" ”

The nickname immediately brought the word "Pissoff" to Sherlock's face, and Erin leaned over to take his lips and sucked on him, straightening up before he could kiss him back, and said thoughtfully, "Maybe I should go to Mycroft and ask him to help forge a hidden secret organization." ”

Sherlock snorted, "Draw snakes." ”

Erin thought about it, Moriarty had decided that she was a good spy belonging to the government organization based on that alone, and she didn't need to do anything more, and maybe it would make Moriarty suspicious. She glanced at her boyfriend lightly, "Fateful opponent, I understand." ”

Sherlock was about to snort, but fortunately, his emotional intelligence, which had been up and down, returned to its peak this time, and he changed his words and said, "I'm talking about our triple murder this morning, and the suspect took away a computer and a hard drive containing data in the real room. ”

Erin took off her coat and hung it on the hook behind the door, she was dressed more formally today for Moriarty's dinner, wearing a simple orange halter skirt under a long black coat. Instead of looking at Sherlock, she glanced around the living room, and finally focused on the various materials that Sherlock casually threw on the desk, and casually asked while picking them up, "Do you have the answer?" ”

"Oh, the answer lies in the useless information you have." Sherlock wrapped his fuchsia nightgown around his body and said angrily.

Erin glanced back at him, he simply closed his eyes and performed his classic thought move. Erin rolled her eyebrows, put down the useless information, sat down on the side of the couch, and asked slowly, "John is not here?" ”

β€œYoutellme.”

"Oh, John came back so early yesterday, and had a drink with Inspector Lestrade before, and the movie ticket didn't come in handy, indicating that the lady named Mannie had left for some time. However, given that Mannie has a crush on John, she will definitely ask John out again today, so John won't be back tonight. Erin meant to say so much, and she noticed that her boyfriend was shaking his feet impatiently, and he was shaking faster and faster. Erin couldn't help but reach out and stroke his thin ankles, Sherlock shrunk his feet like an electric shock, almost tucked into the couch cushions, Erin coughed, and looked at the carpet on the floor, "Okay, okay, you can say your tirade." ”

Sherlock is in no mood to say anything about his deduction right now - yes, he now knows who the killer is, no, strictly speaking, at the scene of the previous crime, he had already locked on the suspect when he was dressed up as a prefect outside the real yΓ n, and then it was just a matter of further searching for conclusive evidence, poor Scotland Yard was still sifting through the social circle of Dr. Renard, who was the first to be killed, and he gave his girlfriend a dry hint: "It involves an aid, a suffocated guinea pig and a cane." ”

Erin, based on Sherlock's prompts, basically pieced together the circumstances of the triple murder in half an hour - not a professional killer, of course, but an insider, with authority higher than that of the three researchers. The reason why there was no sign of struggle at the scene was because he used a sound wave mask, which emits low-amplitude sound waves that correspond to the frequency of the vibrations of the lung tissues. Before he entered, the three scientists were out of breath, and the mouse had suffocated from damaged lungs, leaving a trail on his crutches as he moved the sound wave hood. The motive is naturally for promotion, after all, if there is such a scandal in the real yΓ n room, the first to bear the brunt is naturally the number one - this is still disgusted by Sherlock: "I almost said the name of the murderer!" ”

Erin naturally knew, so she sincerely admired Sherlock's incomparable brain, coaxed him to be happy, intertwined his ten fingers, and lowered her eyes: "So, great consulting detective, have you figured out how to play the upcoming magnificent chapter with Moriarty?" ”

Who would have thought that this magnificent chapter would be the last, Moriarty laughed and snapped his head open with a single shot, after which Sherlock jumped off the rooftop.

Moriarty still had an eerie smile on his face, which became the last expression he had when he was alive, and when he regained consciousness, he believed that the door to a new world had been opened, and he could treasure his surprised expression.
