Chapter 9: The Subway Bombing (8)
Thinking about the menu for the evening, Connie exhaled a hot breath and looked at the thin frost on the side of the road, suddenly missing the hot pot very much.
Or...... Eating hot pot?
Connie thought about it last month, but the weather was not particularly cold at that time, and the hot pot must be good, so it was put aside, but Connie did not give up this idea, during which she not only went to the store to order a mandarin duck pot, but also prepared a lot of hot pot seasoning, although it is not as professional as a professional, but in ordinary people's terms, it is already very good.
Hot pot with a delicious sauce and a cold glass of soda...... Suck~
Thinking of this, Connie unconsciously began to drool o(* ̄▽ ̄*)o
If you can eat a hot pot, it will really be a death in Xinghu without regrets......
Good!
Connie hammered her fist and set the menu for tonight, so have a good meal! Let's go buy hot pot ingredients! ~~~
There are several supermarkets in the UK that sell vegetables, the largest of which are in the center of London, although in the city center, the vegetables here are cheaper, a third cheaper than the average convenience store, but Connie prefers the wet market here.
It is similar to the domestic vegetable market, but it is much simpler and cleaner, and the price is the cheapest, the disadvantage is that the things here are more cluttered, and there is no such thing as in the supermarket.
But it also has many advantages, a wide variety, cheap prices, and the freshest.
Generally, Connie chooses here, once a week for a big purchase, usually the family needs something or something special, she will go to the nearby supermarket to buy, after all, some things in the big supermarket if they are on sale, it is still very cheap.
Carrots, broccoli, tomatoes, cucumbers...... 100 pence can have a small basket of enough, enough for them to eat for a whole week, and the most gratifying thing is that Connie also accidentally found Chaotian peppers imported from China, but the people who tried it felt too spicy to stand it, so this small stall was very deserted, and only a few people wanted to challenge this spiciness.
But Connie was overjoyed...... How can the hot pot be less Chaotian pepper!
There was a small box for 10 pence, and Connie bought three in one go, with the sauce she had made...... I'm so good at Xinghu! ~~~~~
Green onions, potatoes, garlic...... At the end of the purchase, almost all the vegetables in the vegetable market were brushed back by Connie, which also led to her thin body...... and its precarious posture towards the meat stall.
Having bought a whole box of lamb fillets, Connie went home satisfied, and although she wanted to save money and walk back, there was nothing she could do......
The sin of greed.
It took only 10 minutes to take an hour's journey.
After shopping for most of the morning, although her whole body was sore, Connie still had a feeling of pain and happiness......
When the car arrived at Baker Street, it was stopped at the interface, and I don't know if it was a traffic jam or something, the car stalled, and after looking at the half of the street that was still left, Connie decisively paid and got out of the car and walked over to reads;.
The more I walked, the more I felt that something was wrong.
So many people? Are there any activities here?
Crowded crowds, noisy streets, mixed with the whistle of the patrolman.
The nerve in Connie's head was immediately plucked, no, something was wrong.
Could it be that something happened again? Or did it explode somewhere? Murder!?
But this is near 221b, so it stands to reason that there shouldn't be any major accidents around here.
"I'm sorry, ladies and gentlemen, please give way, my family lives over there." Blankly facing the pitiful gazes of the crowd at her, Connie staggered past the crowd with two bundles of green onions in her hands, a sliced lamb around her neck, and a box of vegetables in her arms.
I'm a grass!
Around the corner, the door of 221b has flown off.
Next door is a big dark hole, what about 222b!?
Connie's heart was filled with grass and mud horses galloping past, trembling with her feet moving into the cordon.
"Who are you? It is not possible to enter here. A female police officer grabbed Connie's arm, and the thin arm was already overwhelmed, but now the female police officer dragged her, and immediately dropped two bundles of green onions.
"Hello officer, I'm a ...... living in 221b" She secretly complained bitterly, rubbing her sore arm, this woman looks so thin and has so much strength, the black man simply can't explain it!
The policewoman looked at Connie and seemed to think that she didn't look like a dangerous person, so she let her in.
Connie scowled down and picked up the green onions on the ground, seeing that the female police officer looked good, but she didn't want to help at all, she suddenly cursed in her heart, compared to Officer Lestrade, this officer's Su zhì simply lowered the average level of the whole London!
"Oh~Connie!" Mrs. Hudson was wrapped in a blanket at this time, and when she saw Connie coming in through the front door, she suddenly rushed over to hug Connie, but Connie shook and did not flash to the side in time, and was knocked squarely, and two packets of broccoli smashed her small body...... What should I do if the cliff was smashed into an airfield, and the development will not be good in the future!
"Oh~ Connie, fortunately you went out early in the morning to shop, otherwise I would be really afraid of you......" Mrs. Hudson looked scared, Connie knew that she put down the box in her hand, reached out and patted Mrs. Hudson: "I'm not fine, don't worry, but what's wrong, I see that the 222b next door is completely gone......"
"They're investigating, and it's said that the terrorists did it, but I don't know why they chose this place again, but fortunately you're gone, otherwise you'll suffer."
Before Connie could react, she was pulled upstairs by Mrs. Hudson, where Sherlock and Officer Lestrade were sitting on the couch in the room, seemingly discussing the case...... Well, it's Officer Lestrade alone in blablabla.
Sherlock seems to be in a daze......
"Oh. Well-on, you're back? Good thing you're okay...... But is this a new look? Lestrade was visibly relieved to see Connie.
Connie looked down when she heard this, and was suddenly a little embarrassed, she had a slice of lamb hanging around her neck, and two bundles of green onions hanging from her left and right hands, sweating ......
"Thank you, officer, for worrying, I'm fine, everyone is terrified, I'm going to make you lunch, is Officer Lestrade going to stay for lunch?" Today make distinctive Chinese food reads;. Connie smiled and beckoned to Lestrade.
This mentality is enough to see, and Lestrade glances at Connie with admiration, and the people who can live with Sherlock are not mortals, just like Mrs. Hudson......
"Okay, that's going to bother Connie." Lestrade hesitated for a moment but agreed, looking at the mood a little relaxed.
Connie turned to look at Sherlock, remembered his text message, and realized that there seemed to be no coffee cups around him, and only a broken machine with a screen split in half on the table.
Sherlock wasn't going to finish that text message and explode...... So, the phone was when he was blown up......
"Mr. Sherlock, are you alright?" Connie asked, a little worried.
Sherlock came back to his senses and met Connie's gaze.
"A cup of coffee, two sugars, thank you. I'm fine. ”
“…… Good. ”=_=
This obsession with coffee is also unprecedented......
With the lamb and green onions in hand, Connie went downstairs and put her things in the kitchen, ready to go back to her room to change her clothes.
As soon as she opened the door, she was petrified by the sight of Qiē.
This dark world.
"Ahh Subconsciously shouted out, Connie looked at this qiē in disbelief, who could tell her why her room had become a big black hole, and the huge hole by the window!!
As soon as Mrs. Hudson and Lestrade heard the screams, they immediately rushed downstairs: "What's the matter?" What's wrong? ”
Connie turned around and pointed to the room behind her with trembling fingers: "My room ......"
The two of them breathed a sigh of relief: "It turned out to be this, when the explosion next door exploded, your room was affected because it was connected to the wall next door." ”
Affect...... Connie looked back at the two-meter-high and two-meter-wide hole, the cold wind blew in, the bed was only sawdust, and the wardrobe was half gone...... Is this called a ripple?
"Don't worry, dear Connie, I've already sorted out the upstairs room, fortunately, the room on the third floor hasn't been rented out yet, you can live there for the time being, there will be insurance here, and you can live in it again when the renovation is done." Hudson was too □□ comforting Connie.
Connie nodded stunned, made coffee and asked Lestrade to bring it to Sherlock, but her heart was full of barrage.
Can't be better......
Terrorists bombed a house, but it was 222b......
and blew up her room......
Mrs. Hudson and Sherlock were both fine, and not even a speck of dust had fallen from the room......
Her room was blown up......
This insecure world......
