“GAY.” As he walked past the table and pretended he wasn't the man he was dating his boss's daughter, Sherlock spat out the word at random.

Well, the man's reaction was a bit big, "What? ”

Erin looked at him in confusion and didn't say anything, just following Sherlock in front. When they left the restaurant, they also said hello to the owner behind the counter, and before Angelo could breathe a sigh of relief in her heart, she heard a raised female voice: "He said GAY, what does that mean?" ”

Angelo: "......" Don't come again!

Erin, who was standing outside the dining room and watching the ensuing development through the glass window, turned around and asked Sherlock, "So, Western Highland Beagle?" ”

Sherlock put his hand in his coat pocket, "Oh, you said the widow. Of course, it's a widowed mother, or a sad widowed mother. She had a men's ring in her necklace, apparently her husband's, and she wore it too big herself. She is exquisitely dressed, but the jewelry is all bargains, and she can wear better ones, but she has always kept it as a souvenir, sentimental. As for the Western Highland Beagle, she has small fine hairs on her legs, but none of them exceed her knees, indicating that she is a puppy. As for how to judge the type of dog by guò hair, you need more practical exercise in this regard. Oh, don't worry that Mrs. Hudson will suspect us of making a mess of the living room, she's used to it. ”

"I think we'd better hurry up." After listening to Sherlock's words, Erin originally remembered the dent she had made on the floor of 221B, which Mrs. Hudson didn't know about, but seeing that the lady in the restaurant who had learned that the man she was dating was actually GAY, she had already stood up and was about to go out, so in order to avoid non-combat damage, the two of them should leave the "place of the incident" as much as possible.

Sherlock also saw it, and the two looked at each other, and then turned around and walked away quickly, turning a corner and laughing.

Erin thought for a moment and said, "I actually like his seafood and cheese gratin." ”

"Don't worry, he's here for takeout." Sherlock, who understood Erin's subtext, pouted and said, casually looking around, and the next moment he noticed that the surveillance camera on the building at three o'clock on his right hand was aimed at them, and it seemed to be a condescending point up and down. Sherlock's face immediately darkened, he glanced at Erin, who was facing away from the surveillance camera, and remembered that she was affected by the dead fat man, although the influence was removed later, but this was definitely a bad start, and the mood was even less good, so he said stiffly: "Go back." ”

The next moment, I heard Erin say suspiciously, "Aren't you going to the video store?" ”

Sherlock: "...... It was on our way back. ”

"Really?" Erin began to think back to the day they first met, from the restaurant to the shops on both sides of the road back to 221B Baker Street, and as soon as she remembered the beginning, Sherlock was pulled back to the little game they had been playing in the restaurant, and her attention was suddenly diverted.

Fortunately, they didn't toss so much in the video store, otherwise, they might really be ruthlessly kicked out.

As they walked back to 221B, they were about to go upstairs when they met Mrs. Hudson, who was shocked to see the DVDs they had rented from the video store and the complete set of Harry Potter they had bought in the bookstore next to the video store, "You two are going to watch the DVD together?" What movie is it? My Fair Lady? "Titanic"? She said a few more romance movies that she thought she was familiar with, but none of them were right, and the landlady finally gave up, "So you're going to watch it?" ”

"A, oh, I was wrong, it's still a series, a movie that tells the adventure, inspirational, magical, and so on stupid story of a man-made savior defeating a brainless demon king." Sherlock snapped the first Harry Potter novel in his hand and said to Mrs. Hudson, oh, with a big smile.

Mrs. Hudson: "? ”

"Harry Potter," or Erin said the name directly, and by looking at Mrs. Hudson's expression, she knew that she knew this, no, it was this series, and said to Sherlock, who was about to go up the stairs, "It seems that this series is really famous." ”

"Oh, I can see that from the bookstore they put this series in the most prominent position, and the number of their deposit slip when they printed it shows that they sold thirty-two copies in one day today, which is much higher than the other series, and it is obvious that they are very popular." Sherlock and Erin were talking as they were going up the stairs, and when he had said this, they went up a few steps, and when he finished speaking, he said down, "Good night, Mrs. Hudson." ”

Mrs. Hudson, who was already confused, waved her hand unconsciously, "Good night, children." "Oh, she'd better go back and cook her supper, but the sound of the stairs still pricked her ears—

Sherlock's girlfriend, the pretty girl, said, "I think you'd better sleep for a while, since I woke you up last night, you can only sleep this morning, how long have you been asleep?" Less than two hours. ”

- Was this done all night? But what a love, no wonder the girl slept until the afternoon when she went to call her.

Sherlock said disapprehantly, "That's enough." ”

- Sure enough, it's a young man.

"But I think you're going to need it—" Mrs. Hudson heard this, and the two of them had gone up to the second floor and closed the door, but did they need to listen to the rest? Mrs. Hudson waved her hand in front of her face, "Oops", and when she turned to go back, she still thought, who said that Asian girls are more conservative, but really...... It's nice to be young.

Upstairs, Erin looked at the bag in her hand: "Given that we have a wrong understanding of quantity, why don't we read it together tomorrow, and besides, haven't you already summarized the whole story in the first book of Guò?" ”

"I know you think it's a waste of my time, and I have a hunch that it will, but as an Englishman, I think it's worth taking the time to get to know this set of writings that even an eighteenth-century ghost thinks represents Xiàn in England." Sherlock found a reason for himself that sounded very strong about national honor, but was suddenly exposed by Comrade Xiao Ai: "You can directly say what you want to see, Sherlock." ”

Sherlock: "......" he snorted heavily, and went straight to his bedroom, tossing at him before closing the bedroom door, "You have half an hour to attend to your personal affairs." ”

In the living room, Erin's smile faded as she remembered Sherlock's mention of Edward Harris. WHEN SHE WENT UPSTAIRS, SHE ALSO THOUGHT OF THE GAY SHE HAD PERFORMED IN THE DINING ROOM EARLIER, AND SHE STILL HAD A DOUBT, BUT THE GHOST SENT THE GOD TO MENTION IT TO SHERLOCK.

Sherlock listened upstairs to the movement on the stairs, frowned fiercely, casually ripped off his scarf and threw it on the bed, took out his mobile phone and pressed the keyboard as Mycroft's fat face: "Don't meddle in my business again, you know the consequences!" ——SH”

The text messages came back almost instantly, and it seemed that McCroft had anticipated what Sherlock would send and what kind of text he would send him: "You like her, don't you?" ——MH”

"It's none of your business! ——SH”

"Oh, Sherlock, do you remember Redbeard? ——MH”

"I'm not a kid anymore, Mycroft! ——SH”

"No, maybe I should have made it clearer, Irene, this goldfish is special to you, she won't stay in this parallel universe to her, she knows it. You should have deduced it, Sherlock, or did you deduce it, but you turned a blind eye? Love is a dangerous disadvantage, as we have always known, Sherlock, and it is not too late to stop from the precipice. ——MH”

Sherlock stared at the text message, pursed his lips tightly, and after a while, he threw his phone on the bed hard, gritting his teeth and spitting out the words: "Dead fat!" ”

If a bear child listens to his parents, then he is not a bear child, but he can't say it, what McCroft said, Sherlock didn't listen, if you have to ask for physical evidence, then there is:

Half an hour after they had agreed, Erin came downstairs, and when she looked up, she saw Sherlock, who was sitting on the armrested couch where he used to sit, reading the Harry Potter book with his legs crossed, he had obviously taken a shower and changed a new set of clothes, although his clothes were similar, but apparently he had changed again, and he looked as slim as ever, showing off his good figure, but, "You wore a purple shirt." ”

Purple = purple = girlfriend is not my thing, Sherlock obviously thought of it, and the content he searched for on the Internet with "purple" as the keyword, squeezed the book tightly, and then turned the page very lightly, and explained casually: "My clothes are all prepared by the fat man, I thought you knew this, given that you also said that I was gnawing the old clan." ”

"That's it." To this, Erin said something that was basically not emotional, and it sounded very perfunctory, and she answered the same answer as if she didn't.

Sherlock couldn't help but glance up at her, very dissatisfied with her perfunctory, but he couldn't just tell her so bluntly, "I'm not GAY", besides, he felt that he had hinted so clearly, she should have understood! What the hell did the fat man tell her?

Anyway, it's all my brother's fault, so it's right.

Let's not talk about whether this GAY is GAY or not, the two of them originally made an appointment to watch a movie together, and they still used Sherlock's laptop. Originally, they were going to put their laptops on their desks, but it would be silly for two people to sit in a row with chairs or something, and they were also reliable... Near.

Finally, the laptop was placed on the coffee table in front of the couch, and Erin sat directly on the floor leaning against the sofa, while Sherlock, a typical unseated consulting detective, occupied the entire sofa by himself, and before the first movie started, he still disliked the series: "Just by looking at the beginning, you know the story of the end, which is not challenging and boring." I think you can spare your energy to flip through the original book while watching the movie, or we can also play a scavenger hunt, oh, I mean looking for characters whose IQ is really online, first of all, the biggest villain in this, the second generation of the Dark Lord can be ruled out - what is your expression? ”

"Have you ever been to a movie theater with someone else? I just think that if you spoil it like this, it will definitely cause outrage. "Is it really just a spoiler issue, Comrade Xiao Ai?

"No, I mean I haven't been to the cinema with anyone else, but I've been to the opera house and accompanied Mommy to the day theater of Les Miserables." Sherlock said with a look of disgust, which was so obvious that Erin was curious: "And then?" ”

Sherlock pouted: "After going once, she won't be happy to call me, anyway, is there Mommy's good baby with her." ”

Another new nickname appeared, "Mycroft? ”

Sherlock did not hesitate to Brother Black: "It's that fat man, he never dares to complain to Mommy in person, he will only be in pain in private." Believe me, I'd love to hear him complain in private. ”

Erin's eyes widened and she muttered, "It's a little hard to imagine." ”

"'Oh, Sherlock, I beg you, you can take over during the intermission, you don't know how painful it is, how terrible it is!' Sherlock spared no effort to smear Mycroft, and vividly learned the scene when Mycroft called him in the play "Les Miserables", which was very expressive and very unbeatable.

Erin was really shocked, she imagined such a picture in her mind, and somehow made Ai Ye's voice into background music, and the superposition of the two made her shudder. There was silence for a moment before she spoke up and turned her gaze to the computer and said, "Well, let's watch the movie." ”

Sherlock smiled triumphantly in the lightning, the fleeting kind.

Although Sherlock disliked it in various ways before the movie started, well, in the movie, he also disliked it in various ways, and Comrade Xiao Ai "went along with him", which also fueled his arrogance, the two of them still found interesting aspects.

For example, take out a map of the whole of Britain and use the clues in the book to determine the possible location of the Leaky Cauldron and Hogwarts;

Another example is that Erin is very interested in the charms and potions mentioned in it, although Sherlock criticizes the recipes of specific potions and the process of making them from a scientific point of view, and does not dampen Erin's interest, she eagerly says: "Maybe I can make a wand out, oh, don't pretend, I know you want to see me try to make potions, Sherlock." She said and poked Sherlock in the arm.

By the way, Sherlock is now sitting on the floor as well, side by side, the kind that can rub against each other by mistake. Well, now they don't feel close.
