Chapter 6: The Subway Bombing (5)
"Connie."
"In?"
"I don't know ...... you"
"My hand hurts, and I probably won't be able to cut things for Mr. Sherlock."
“…… Don't know anything about the Guanyin method? ”
“……”
"Oh dear, what are you two talking about?" Mrs. Hudson put down her knife and fork and looked at the surprised Connie and the expressionless Sherlock in surprise. I don't understand what the two of them said at the same time.
"No, nothing ......"
"Could it be that Connie is thinking about my previous mentions?"
The two said this at the same time, and Connie silently took a sip of milk, feeling that she had dug a hole for herself.
"It's not ......" She just didn't know which tendon was wrong, looking at Sherlock's eyes, she subconsciously thought of what he said before, and then subconsciously said it.
Sure enough, when I was with the great god, my IQ was sucked away /(tot)/~~.
Sherlock frowned, looking at Connie directly, a little frightened by such a gaze, Connie plucked up the courage to change the subject: "Did Mr. just want to ask me something?" Could it be related to the case? "Speaking of which, as long as a case is involved, it will attract all of Sherlock's attention, right?
Really.
"Yes, those in Scotland Yard after the tracks of the Underground were blown up...... A string of Sanskrit words translated to mean the person who hears the sound, and a strange symbol was drawn next to it. Although the sheep with worrying IQs said that they were terrorists, I felt that there was definitely more than that, after all, ......" Sherlock did not say anything more, and Connie was dazed to hear it.
"The one who hears the voice?"
"Yes, I suspect it is Guanyin Bodhisattva in Chinese history. But that symbol is not the same as any symbol handed down in China. ”
Symbol? Connie was sure she must have turned into a star-eyed by this time.
Guanyin Bodhisattva ...... Not to mention anything else, there are countless images in it alone, she only knows the "Thirty-three Guanyin" and "Twenty-one Tarpa", which still drags her grandmother who eats fasting and recites Buddha every year and does not forget to worship Buddha and worship Guanyin, in addition, she really doesn't know anything about these religions.
"I'm sorry, sir, but maybe I can help you look up some books, I don't know if I can find anything useful, but can you show me the symbol?" Connie wiped her mouth and said solemnly.
Connie felt a little honored that the gods called the officers of Scotland Yard little sheep, but came to ask her about this.
It's just that he is still surprised by Sherlock's strength, he is only in his early 20s, and he has already begun to cooperate with the police, although he looks down on those people...... And Mrs. Hudson said that his deduction was highly praised by university professors, and I heard that he could get a doctorate a year earlier......
"Of course. Good lunch today. Still smiling with eight teeth, Sherlock wiped his mouth, threw down most of the unresolved pasta on his plate, and turned to go upstairs.
"Sir, don't you want to eat any more?"
"A cup of coffee, two pieces of sugar, thank you."
“…… Be. ”
As soon as Connie finished making coffee, Sherlock took two phones down and handed one of them to Connie, who was stunned and took the brand new phone.
“?”
"My number has been saved in zài, and I will send it directly to you when I need you to inquire about some related things in the future." :)
“…… But I have a phone. ”
"It's an old model from a few years ago, not to mention the poor internet speed, and the quality of the picture is not clear, I need you to take some photos of the information and send it to me." :)
Connie looked at Mrs. Hudson with some embarrassment, this mobile phone was an old mobile phone used by Mrs. Hudson, and later gave it to her, although it was indeed an old mobile phone, but it was also given to her by her, which made the old man inevitably unhappy when he heard it, but when he turned his head, he saw that she looked at himself without mind...... and Sherlock, with a dreamy and beautiful expression on his face.
It was commonly known as the state of fantasy, and Connie was sure that whatever was going on in Mrs. Hudson's head right now, she would never be happy to know.
"Of course, the computer is upstairs, you can choose one and put it in your own bedroom, or look it up in my room at any time, if you don't mind." Sherlock finally stopped smiling.
Connie stiffly took the phone and said thank you.
The great god is now asking her to do things, a mobile phone or something, and she just takes it obediently.
Intuition told her not to refuse for politeness, otherwise it was herself who would be hurt ==.
Of course, there is still a little bit of joy in my heart.
After all, I used to use smart phones with large screens.
She still likes the improvement in the quality of life and mental level.
What's more!
In the future, you can justifiably climb over the wall (*^__^*)!
"Okay, in the future, if Mr. Sherlock is out investigating the case and needs my help to check the information, you can call me at any time to read;." After a little entanglement, Connie decided to accept this gift, although she still wondered in her heart how Sherlock, who has always been hands-on, could suddenly ask her to help check the information, she is still a 12-year-old girl in the eyes of others, and anyone will think it is unreliable, right?
Connie didn't ask, but Sherlock saw something, but he didn't say anything, or rather, he didn't feel the need to say it.
After lunch, Connie sat down on the table in Mr. Sherlock's room to find out what the symbol meant.
This taste is so joyful (v-v)~
It's just that the sky doesn't follow people's wishes, and after checking it all afternoon, Connie didn't find anything, and finally looked at the symbol in the phone and was stunned.
Lying on her bed, Connie looked at the phone that was about to run out of battery, feeling a little black in front of her eyes, she hadn't sat in front of the computer for so long for a long time, and she was a little unaccustomed to it.
She tossed her phone aside, ready to close her eyes and rest for a while, when it suddenly rang.
Hurriedly picked up the phone, it was Mrs. Hudson's call, it is said that she met a nice person in the café in the afternoon, and did not come back after making an appointment for dinner in the evening, and then received a text message from Sherlock asking about the relevant progress, Connie exhaled in frustration, and was about to send a text message to apologize, when the phone slipped and smashed directly in the face.
(ノ'Д)ノ It hurts!
The nose was smashed in the middle, rubbing the red nose and picking up the phone that had slid under her neck, the light interface instantly met Connie's eyes, making her stunned.
[Arrive home immediately.] A bell woke Connie up, she saw the text message that popped up, her hand slipped, and the phone slammed into her nose again.
"Ahh *......" She screamed in pain, but the man immediately sat up.
I probably got up too violently, and I was dizzy in front of my eyes, but I was ecstatic in my heart.
Although that angle was a coincidence...... But if you look at the picture the other way around, the symbol looks like a twig in a bottle.
This symbol may not mean anything, but as long as a Chinese knows, China has a very famous Guanyin, Yang Zhi Guanyin. Hold the poplar branch in the right hand and hold the bottle in the left hand.
The famous poplar branch manna in film and television dramas! Anyone who has watched Journey to the West knows that there is a wood and a !?
Of course, this was only Connie's own speculation, but she had searched through all the symbols of various religions in an afternoon, and none of them were similar, which was probably the most likely.
It's just that Guanyin Bodhisattva has anything to do with the subway bombing......
After thinking for thirty seconds, Connie gave up decisively, and this kind of problem should be left to the gods to solve.
Just as he was about to go upstairs to search for some information, there was a knock at the door.
Ah, it's Mr. Sherlock back.
Connie strode to the door and opened it, seeing a dusty Sherlock and a police officer behind him.
"Mr. Sherlock, I found some clues." Connie smiled happily, a big smile that infected the people behind Sherlock, and seeing this white little girl smiling so cutely, Officer Lestrade said that he was very happy with this smile.
"The two of you go up first, and I'll make tea and bring it up to reads;." Connie smiled and welcomed the man into the house.
Sherlock was about to speak, when Connie happily took his words: "A cup of coffee, two pieces of sugar, I know, Mr. Sherlock, don't worry." So is this officer also coffee? Or tea? Connie still has a good impression of the police in this country, after all, she also received a lot of help from them at the beginning, otherwise she may not be able to be adopted by Mrs. Hudson, so when she saw the officer in the police uniform, Connie was very kind.
Lestrade covered his mouth and smiled: "Tea is fine." Thank you, lovely girl. ”
Sherlock glanced impatiently at the two of them, who were still having a pointless conversation, and went upstairs into the house.
Connie smiled and said, "Don't mind, Mr. Sherlock, Mr. Sherlock is a good man. ”
Lestrade was surprised, it was the first time someone said this about Sherlock, although they hadn't known each other for a long time, but Sherlock's personality shouldn't be a good person, right? It seems that this is really a kind little girl......
"I'm Lestrade, so I'll go up first."
"Hello Officer Lestrade. My name is Connie. Connie replied with a wave of her hand. Officer Lestrade has a pampered smile.
The sense of accomplishment was indescribable, so Connie hummed a small tune and made a beautiful cup of flower tea for the officer, and put it on a tray and sent it upstairs.
"Oh, Sherlock, I didn't think you had such a lovely girl at home, could she be your sister? Much cuter than you......" Lestrade said, rubbing his hands, thinking that if he had such a lovely daughter, he would love her very much.
Sherlock glanced at Lestrade with a "you're bored" gaze, sat down at his computer and began to look through Connie's results for the afternoon.
Unfortunately, the great god of learning only knows very little Chinese.
Buckle buckle clasp.
"Come in."
Connie came in with a tray, placed the coffee on the table, glanced at the computer, and handed the cup of rose tea to Officer Lestrade.
Lestrade froze as he turned to the cup of tea, and when his eyes touched the water.
"I also added fresh honey, the police officer probably rests every day in order to investigate the case, this rose honey tea can not only refresh the mind, but also care for the skin, the police officer try, if you like it, there is still at home, I will bring you a pack back later, and Mrs. can also drink it together."
Lestrade stiffly said thank you, and Sherlock gave him a sneering look and said even more embarrassedly, "I'm not married." "Does he look old?
Connie was silent, and suddenly remembered that this was the BBC version of the theater, and hugged the tray with some embarrassment and apologized: "Oh, I'm sorry, I thought that such a good person as a police officer must have already had a lover, but don't worry, police officer, your heart is so good, and you are so handsome, you will definitely meet a person who will join hands for a lifetime in the future!" She said with some encouragement, vaguely expressing her position.
As long as it's true love, gender isn't a problem!
Sherlock gave her a strange look.
The person who was praised looked embarrassed and happy to look at Connie and thanked him.
Oh, lord, the little girl is getting cuter the more she looks at it......
