101. The emergence of unsolved cases
Mycroft had already made up his mind to find a new girlfriend for Lestrade, and even had his first secretary, Anthea, screen London women who meet the age criteria, which must meet Lestrade's aesthetic and the needs of their family.
It's a task that is neither easy nor easy, with a large population, a large number of women, and a mix of people. Mycroft didn't say what kind of woman she was, and there were no restrictions on nationality or skin color, and Ancia thought about it herself, probably not in the scope of consideration.
Women, who will like children, understand Lestrade's work, accept eight children who do not belong to them.
Oh, Anthea sighed, it's still hard. In view of the fact that Lestrade's marriage and his last girlfriend were all due to the fact that Lestrade's work finally came to an end, because few women could bear that their husbands were so busy all the time and spent more time with work than themselves, they could not bear to choose to separate from Lestrade in the end. Another thing to consider is that Inspector Lestrade doesn't seem to want another child, her own biological child, so this woman should be able to tolerate this as well.
To sum up, Ancia looked at the information in front of her in embarrassment, and she didn't know how many lucky people could stay after such a screening.
However, Lestrade also has advantages, first of all, he is handsome, which is that Ancia also has to admit that Inspector Lestrade is a very attractive man, not only able to attract the attention of women but also to attract the attention of men, such a man may not be summed up by a simple handsome word. Secondly, Mycroft once asked Ancia to audit the property of Lestrade's family, and it can only be said that their family is not poor in London, as long as Lestrade is willing, they can change to a big house at any time, and the most important thing is that Lestrade's fourth son, Harold Lestrade, seems to have some small property of his own outside, and becoming Lestrade's wife is at least materially rich.
In the end, even if Lestrade works more time than at home, but this man is indeed a rare good man who takes care of his family, and he is still a dedicated person, there has not been a single cheating situation in his life resume, he has always been single-minded for the person he likes, and he has all his efforts for the family, such a man is really rare.
In fact, in addition to the above three points, there are many advantages of Lestrade, such as his relationship with McCroft will make his future smooth sailing, such as the short-term characteristics of Lestrade Jr. will also protect his new Mum and so on.
In short, if it weren't for the fact that Ancia didn't want to get married, she would definitely have booked Lestrade, a good man in the new century.
But it's a pity that not only does she not have the idea of getting married, but she doesn't even have time to fall in love.
So Ancia began to sift through the task, which Mycroft didn't give time, but she thought it would be better to finish the job sooner, and who knows when Mycroft would remember.
Lestrade didn't know anything about this, after Mycroft left, he comforted his bear children, made a lot of promises to coax all the little Lestrade to sleep, the next day McCroft's exclusive doctor came early, although Lestrade was sick before, but the foundation of the body is still there, after two days of recuperation and Mycroft's careful care he has been running on the road to recovery.
Lestrade thanked the doctor, the doctor smiled and didn't speak, he was just helping Mycroft with his errands, he said to Lestrade that if he was grateful, thank Mycroft, I don't know if this doctor is too playful, he even winked at Lestrade and jokingly said: "Probably you are the important person in Mr. Holmes's heart, you must know that I have treated you in addition to the two Holmes." β
Lestrade unexpectedly understood the meaning of the old doctor's mouth, his face instantly turned red/moist, and he hurriedly waved his hand and said, "You misunderstood, the two of us are not that kind of relationship. β
God knows why he and Mycroft have always been mistaken for a couple, and the two of them have never even had an intimate relationship. But what Lestrade probably didn't know was that although the two of them were not close in terms of movements, the eyes that looked at each other and the atmosphere around them were full of pink bubbles.
The old doctor shook his head, picked up his things, and said to Lestrade, "I am not old and stubborn, and besides, Mr. Holmes the Great is a relatively strict man, and I am glad to see him as a doctor." β
Lestrade scratched his head, and it seemed that the old doctor would not listen to any of his explanations.
After sending the people away, Lestrade rolled his eyes as he looked at Sherlock, who was standing in front of the door of his room as if he had something to say, "When did Sherlock's mouth be gagged?" β
Sherlock coughed lightly, he was just thinking about something, "I'm just thinking about what the talkative doctor just said. β
What did the doctor say? He wasn't joking at Lestrade, so Lestrade looked at Sherlock helplessly and said, "Don't sue me, you think you have something to do with me Mycroft?!" β
"How is it possible, I'm not one of those goldfish who don't open their eyes, I know very well what the relationship between the dead fat man and you is."
Sherlock was still waiting to see what happened, how could he tell SΓΉ Reistrade about McCroft's plan.
He immediately looked for another topic, about the last ogre case had been solved, the murderer who was evaluated as resembling a beast confessed to his crime after being rescued, he confessed that he had killed the poor people, and found the missing organs in his house, but the lost organs of the first two victims were no longer found, and they had long since become a delicious meal in the mouth of Oliver James.
During the two days that Lestrade fell ill, Scotland Yard also interrogated the ogre Oliver James, and they wanted to know who had made him like this, but unfortunately because the man's tongue was lost and the tendons in his hand were severed, he had no way to talk to the police at Scotland Yard about the horrible little boy.
The man could only look angrily at the stupid cops, who had no idea what a horrible criminal they had spared.
He dared to guarantee that the little boy in the white shirt would definitely become a powerful and terrifying criminal, even surpassing Professor Moriarty, who had been helping him behind his back.
It's a pity that this group of stupid detectives can't catch him anymore.
What awaits the ogre, Mr. Oliver James, is probably an endless prison life, but given his current disability, his prison life will not be easy.
Of course, Hannibal knew that he would be safe, and no one would believe him even if the man tried his best to portray him, because the following year later, there was a mental report in the man's health report, and there would be a psychiatrist who could prove that the ogre Oliver James had mental problems after his prison life, and what he said could not be used as evidence.
However, this premise is that the man can live to that time.
Hannibal had already calculated the end of the man, one who died and the other who barely survived.
And what Sherlock wants to talk to Lestrade is about Oliver James, although the ogre's case is solved, but who made Oliver James like that and sent him to the police.
The only thing that can be confirmed about this mysterious prisoner is that he is very worried that he will be portrayed by Oliver James, so he not only took away the man's tongue but also took away the ability to use his hands, this mysterious prisoner gave Sherlock the feeling that in addition to his calmness, he also had the ruthlessness of his attack, not everyone can change a person into that way slowly, and even pose upright.
In Sherlock's interpretation, the mysterious prisoner is at least psychologically powerful.
"You're talking about the prisoner who made Oliver James look like that?"
Sherlock nodded, he was very curious about this person, he checked the scene several times, and found a few vague footprints that did not look real, and judging by the blood splattered on the ground, the mysterious prisoner was also wearing something smooth on his body, such as a raincoat, as if Oliver James was killing people.
He was more professional, and Oliver James's wound was neatly taken to the hospital, and the doctors there were also saying that the prisoner they were looking for had calculated the amount of victim's blood, and that he would not die, because Oliver James's wounds had begun to coagulate.
"This prisoner is more mysterious than Oliver James, and his purpose is clear, it seems that he is only interested in ogres, and even brought earplugs to Jasmine Amber to show his ...... Considerate. β
Although Sherlock didn't want to, he had to use the word considerate, judging by Jasmine Amber's intake at the time, no kind of sound could wake her up, and the mysterious prisoner probably just didn't want the screams to enter her ears at the time.
Lestrade sighed, and after a case was over, there was a case that could become an unsolved case.
"Is it possible that a professional killer?"
Sherlock smirked, "Huh?!" Killer? I have to warn Inspector that even a killer wouldn't have such a powerful psychological element. β
If it was really this ogre Mr. Oliver James who was remembered by some killer, at most he would have been shot down, and according to his appearance at the time...... The murderer was deliberately selected to turn people into that way, which means that this mysterious prisoner was probably waiting for Oliver James to appear in ambush early.
None of the qiΔ is a coincidence, but it is intentional.
"Although I don't want to admit it, I guess this case will become unsolved."
Sherlock touched/touched his back molars, and if it weren't for the fact that the ogre couldn't really ask anything, the case wouldn't have been clueless.
Hannibal knocked on the door of the room at this time, and he stood by the door and glanced at Sherlock before saying to Lestrade, "Greg, it's time to take your medicine." β
After that, he looked at Sherlock meaningfully and said, "Sherlock, not every case will be solved perfectly, and sometimes regret is also a kind of beauty. β
"I'll definitely catch this prisoner the next time he commits a crime."
Hannibal stepped back to make way for Sherlock, shaking his head slightly, no one would be able to catch him, unless he wanted to be caught.
It's like ...... That time......
