108. Hello sir

Will Graham had been waiting for the hunter to appear, he had already decided that Mr. Tom who had been hiding in their orphanage was the prey, and although he looked dangerous, if he was really a strong man, he would not have run away from all corners and even tried to find women and children.

He waited for a while, and finally met an out of place man from England on the streets of this small town.

Will didn't come forward to contact him, he needed to watch to see if the man had any intention of looking for Tom.

Mycroft Holmes, in Sherlock's words, his brother was a lazy terminal cancer, and it would have been harder than a field job to get him out, and if it weren't for the cunning of the traitorous agent this time, he would still not have done it himself.

After arriving in Lithuania, he secretly went to this town, his agents knew very well, that person would probably be aware of their movements, the most dangerous place is the safest, if there is no news of his departure, then Mycrof believes that this person is still in this town.

Mycroft is not in a hurry, he doesn't want to startle the snake, as long as the man is still in this small town, he will definitely leave clues about his life, and when the time comes, he just needs to make a secret arrest.

This Lithuanian town has a very strong atmosphere of life, without the fast pace of London, in Mycrof's opinion, it is very suitable for retirement or short-term settlement, he did not let Anthea and them follow him, but walked through the streets of the town with a small black umbrella, he needed to build a number about this town in his brain, On the one hand, it was to screen the location of the codenamed No.2 agent, and on the other hand, McCroft thought that he might be able to invite the Lestrade family to visit the area when he had his spare time.

The official language of Lithuania is Lithuanian, and in its capital and other large cities are still proficient in English, but this small town in northern Lithuania has less contact with the outside world and a sparse foreign population, so most of the residents living here use their own country's Chinese language.

In order to communicate with the above convenience, McCroft began to learn the local language when he set out from England, and after a day he finally mastered the language belonging to the Indo-European language family, which is very tongue-twisting compared to English, probably if it were not for Mycroft, ordinary people would not be able to learn it in such a simple time.

Not only did Mycroft master the language, but he even learned the pronunciation of the locals so he had no trouble conversing.

McCroft, who had bought a doughnut from a dessert shop, continued to wander through the town, he had already walked half of the town, and every alley and street he had walked in front of him had been imprinted in his brain, preserved in the zài memory palace. He hadn't found any signs of the agent's activity yet, and it looked like he was hiding deeper than McCroft thought.

Mycroft was now thinking about the fact that if the person was hidden, he would need to eat and drink, unless the place he was hiding didn't require him to go out and buy groceries......

Mycroft stopped and touched his chin, he was calculating the probability that the No.2 hiding position needed him to go out shopping by himself, and now McCroft thought that the probability should be above 60%, otherwise he would not be able to find traces of the man's activities.

Will was right behind Mycroft, who had been following her down the street for three days, and he looked no different from a normal tourist as he walked around like this, and Will wondered for a moment if he had found the wrong person. It's just that the man's temperament is unique, and he doesn't fit in with the whole town, and if he really doesn't have any identity or background, Will really can't believe it.

Will then followed McCroft's pace to see what the man was trying to do.

Mycroft felt that someone was following him, not because he had found traces of the stalker, but because he had been an agent before, he was more sensitive in this regard, and he had a beam of eyes staring at him all the time, and he felt that there was no malice, but he had been following him for three streets, which made Mycroft have to be vigilant.

Will thinks that Mycroft probably found himself, because the man stopped at a stall to buy something when he entered Fourth Street, and his eyes kept looking at his location while shopping, so Will had to suspect that the man had discovered his tracking.

Will stood behind a tall man and looked at Mycroft, he decided to get here first today, he wouldn't leave until McCroft didn't find the Mr. Tom, and the man's alertness made it difficult for Will to sneak with him, maybe he needed to arrange a "chance encounter" with this gentleman.

Will turned around and left, the nun arranged for him to help buy some ingredients, he hadn't finished the job yet, and she still needed to find a reason to explain why she was half an hour late, Will smiled slightly, he would tell the nuns that he was playful today, after all, no one is perfect.

When Mycroft stopped to buy something, he looked back, and there were no suspicious people within fifty meters of him, except for a little kid who was bouncing away, the time of his departure was a bit too coincidental, and the gaze that stared at him disappeared, just a child who followed him four streets to watch him, which made Mycroft doubt his judgment.

But it was at this time that Hannibal's appearance came to McCroft's mind, and he had also seen unusual children, such as Hannibal, a teenager who could not be judged by common sense, a teenager who was only eight years old.

If McCroft remembered correctly, he should have met the kid before, he looked like he was six or seven years old, with slightly curly hair, clean clothes on his body but rather shabby, he looked like he had taken care of himself but could not afford to change into new clothes, and the pockets of his trousers had a small bulge plus he appeared at the town's farmer's market, probably to buy them.

Seven-year-old children come out to buy, it shouldn't be too far away, but the housing prices in this neighborhood are said to be very high, if the children in the nearby community will not be so shabby, so the biggest possibility is ......

Mycroft asked the lady who had bought something with a slight smile.

"Is there any orphanage around here?"

"There is indeed an orphanage nearby, but it is five streets ahead, and it is relatively remote. Does the gentleman want □□? ”

The lady eagerly asked if McCroft wanted to □□, and answered McCroft's question by the way. The location of the orphanage also proved McCroft's suspicions, if it was really the boy, the right location, because he had followed him here four blocks ago, and McCroft took out the money and gave it to the boss, "Yes, my wife and I want to adopt a child, so we want to see if there is a suitable one." ”

Mycrof spoke Lithuanian fluently, and no one doubted that he was from somewhere else, let alone the truth of what he was saying.

The middle-aged lady laughed twice, "You must all like children very much." ”

"It's what he likes."

Mycroft nodded to the female boss and left, the lady pondered in her mind what McCroft had just said, if I heard it right, the man had just used "he", the male him.

Although Mycroft inquired about the location of the orphanage, he did not make any further moves, he had two thoughts about the little boy, the first was that the person he wanted to arrest was hidden in the orphanage, which could be in line with the reason why there was no sign of his life in this town, the boy was used as an eye for the man, and the second possibility was that the man was in the orphanage, and the boy who was following him wanted to ask for help.

Whatever the possibility, Mycroft was in no hurry to move on to his next step, he admired the boy who followed him, because not anyone could follow him for three streets before he found out, whether the boy was codenamed Agent NO.2 in the eyeliner or wanted to ask for help, he would definitely appear again, and Mycroft was ready to wait for the rabbit.

Will didn't know that he had been discovered by Mycroft, he bought what the nun wanted and hurried back, recently Mr. Tom's temper began to be a little unstable, he was irritable, and there were signs of danger, which made Will sometimes start to miss Hannibal a little, if Hannibal was here, he must have a way to calm the irascible man.

He handed the things to the nun, because when she was "playful", the nun knocked her head and stuck out her tongue, he picked up his chess and ran to Tom's side, raised his head and said to Tom, "Mr. Tom, can you teach me chess?" ”

The Mr. Tom stared at Will for a moment and took the chessboard from his hand, "Alright, let's go over here." ”

Will smiled brightly and nodded vigorously, following in Tom's footsteps.

The second time Will saw the man in the three-piece suit was in a café in the town, where the three-piece man was dressed in a suit and sitting on a chair by the window, with a cup of coffee in front of him and a jar of sugar cubes on the table. Will looked at Mycroft and frowned, the man looked like he was waiting for someone.

Will sat in front of the pet store teasing his owner's puppy, his eyes glancing across the road at Mycroft.

Mycroft looked at Will playing with the puppy and smiled, he put down the coffee in his hand and looked at Will as well.

The eyes of the two men intersected, and Mycroft reached out and made a gesture of please to the position opposite him, and Will bit his lip when he saw the gesture, it was clear that he had been spotted and that the man was inviting him over.

He stood up and threw the bread in his hand to the puppy and patted the dust on his body, the man was already inviting him, he had no reason not to go, Will walked to the restaurant where Mycroft was, but when he was about to enter, a lady in a long black dress cleverly blocked his way.

The lady reached out and took out a small signal transmitter in his school bag, Will raised an eyebrow, it looked like he thought that men were indeed not idle people, and his late return yesterday also made the Mr. Tom feel a sense of crisis, so he put a miniature transmitter on his body to confirm his location.

Will nodded to the lady and entered the dining room, where he came to Mycroft and asked innocently in Lithuanian, "Sir, are you going to treat me to a little cake?" ”

"You'll play in the nearby park for a while, and then you'll buy two books in the bookstore and go back to the orphanage."

Will touched his nose, it seemed that the man didn't want to play dumb riddles with him, and said straight to the point.

Will sat down in the chair across from Mycroft, dangled his legs, and said, "Hello, my name is Will Graham, and it's a pleasure to meet you, sir. ”

This time he spoke native English.
