80. Inexplicable crying

Bournemouth is a town in Dorset, southwest England. It is about 40 kilometers northeast of Southampton and borders the English Channel. The local climate is pleasant, with warm winters, and it is a seaside tourist destination. Bournemouth's most famous attraction is the award-winning beach – seven miles of sparkling crescent-shaped sand where you can sunbathe, surf, swim and more.

In addition to being a great place to spend a holiday, Bournemouth is home to a football club in the south-west of England, founded in 1889 and officially renamed Bournemouth in 1972, which is still preparing for the English First Division.

Truth be told, there aren't a few people in the UK who don't like football, except for the two Sherlock Holmes. Although he used to live in France, he also loved English football, and whenever he had free time, he would sit in front of the TV and watch the games, and even go to the scene to support him if he had the chance.

In the information about Reestrade that McCroft once read, the club that Reestrade likes is marked as Manchester United Football Club, and McCroft once thought about giving Relestrade a ticket to the game as he likes, but because of the conflict between Reestrade's work and the game, he has never done so.

By the way, Mycrogh Holmes, who plays for the queen as the British government, still said that he admires football, and his favorite team is the same as the British royal family, which is Arsenal Football Club.

Mycroft's invitation was not very sudden, and the current form made Mycroft see a little clearly, because Lestrade's invitation made them implicated by Mycroft, and those who wanted to attack Mycroft would not stop at least until McCroft's official return, of course, Mycroft would fight back, but if they wanted to fight for a fish to the death, Lestrader would definitely be affected.

So Mycroft decided to invite the Lestrade to go out on a trip together, anyway, the little Lestrade were on vacation, and Lestrade had said before that he wanted to take his children out to play, and now the time is just right.

Originally, Mycroft wanted to go abroad, but then it would not be convenient for him to control things in London, so he set the place of travel in Bournemouth, because it was a tourist city, although it seemed dangerous, it was convenient for Mycroft to operate in the back, and those who wanted his life should be more careful recently, because Mycroft Holmes was about to fight back.

Now Lestrade looked at Mycrof and asked, "Vacation?!" ”

"Yes, vacation, you know I've been injured recently, so it's useless to stay in London for a long vacation, so a vacation can change my mood."

Lestrade could have been deceived so easily, and after redressing McCroft's wounds, he sat down on the bed and said, "You wouldn't be planning anything in secret, would you?" ”

"It's all a small thing, and I think the little Lestrades will love this vacation too."

This sentence made Lestrade ponder for a while, the bear children do like to play, before they had no extra money to go on vacation, and when they have money, there is no time, Lestrade spun like a top every day, although the bear children think about family travel but see Lestrade busy but will never bring it up, this time Mycroft gave him a chance.

"Well, what time? I need to apply for my vacation. ”

Lestrade is the detective of the murder team, where he can say go, and the group of vampires in Scotland Yard will not let people go lightly.

"In a few days, when my wound heals a little better." Mycroft took one look at his wound and said, "I'll take care of all the work and vacation." ”

Lestrade thought for a moment and nodded, the vampires of Mycroft's power would have nodded.

The next day, when Lestrade told the bears about the vacation, he heard cheers, and Merlin and Tony immediately ran to Lestrade's side, looked up into his eyes and asked, "Vacation?" ”

"Yes, we went on holiday with McCroft and Sherlock in Bournemouth."

"Yaye yes - vacation, vacation!"

In fact, Merlin and Tony didn't know where the name Bournemouth was, but as long as they heard the word "vacation", they were very happy, and Lestrade touched Merlin's head and thought to hope that the sea would not discourage Merlin's positive β–‘β–‘.

Some people are happy to pay taxes and some people are against, such as Sherlock Holmes, going on vacation with Mycroft is simply the scariest thing in the world, why should he go with him?!

"I'm sorry gentlemen, I'll wish you a wonderful holiday."

Sherlock made it clear that I wouldn't go to you to have fun.

But how could Mycroft rest assured that Sherlock would be left alone in London, as long as it was a small investigation, everyone could know that Mycroft had a little brother, and he had always been relieved that he was holding the little brother in the palm of his hand, as the person that McCroft valued, Sherlock had a great role.

"Sherlock, this is a group event, you can't say no, and I'll say hello to you at Butz Hospital."

β€œOhno!”

Sherlock wouldn't have listened to Mycroft, he hadn't heard it in the first place. But this time there was a lot at stake, and it was impossible for McCroft to leave Sherlock in London, and Sherlock had only two options, to go on vacation or to return to Mommy's care for him.

"Two choices for a vacation and going back to Mommy, little Harry's decision is yours."

Sherlock put down the cutlery in his hand in anger and glared at Mycroft, neither of these two options was Sherlock's liking.

"I chose to stay in London."

"It's a shame that there isn't that option."

McCroft didn't give Sherlock this option, he wouldn't leave his enemies with any chance to defeat him, and this time when he left London for a holiday and came back, McCroft had to come back in style and sweep away all the crises.

"Sherlock, if you're going on vacation with us, maybe I can promise you one thing, anything."

"Anything?"

This was something that shook Sherlock, and if a vacation alone could be exchanged for Mycroft's surveillance for a period of time, then it wasn't too difficult to even go on vacation.

"Dead fat man counts."

"Of course."

It's done, Sherlock touched his chin and smiled, when the time comes, he just needs to go out and play by himself, and it's good that McCroft is out of sight and out of mind.

This matter was decided for the time being, just waiting for McCroft to set a time, because Mycroft's tentative vacation was about ten days, so Lestrade also had a lot to prepare. For example, their luggage, and since they are going to the beach to know how to swim, Lestrade is going to buy new swimsuits for the bears.

During this time, Mycroft has figured out a lot of things, such as who is behind the ghost, and just like Mycroft feared before, someone in his team of agents has indeed been bribed, and after betraying the news of Mycroft's political enemies, Mycroft sneered after reading the report in his hand, his agents don't need a mouse, otherwise something happens in the face of an important mission, and he can't make up for it.

But before the official start of the vacation, there was a little thing, and it had something to do with Little Merlin.

Merlin's background has always been a mystery, he is abandoned obviously, and Merlin is probably because of what has happened to him, he is not only timid but also likes to cry, and even Merlin's least favorite thing is water, whether it is by the lake or the river. But this time, I probably didn't see the sea, and I just listened to Merlin still show his enthusiasm.

They had already set the date of the holiday, and Lestrade's vacation had been approved, after all, it was the first person with Mr. Mycroft's side, Anthea had personally called, even if the vicious vampire was going to let Lestrade go, and they all knew what the consequences of offending Mycroft would be.

The holiday is here, and Mycroft has also arranged the hotel and a simple itinerary in Bournemouth, a total of ten days can probably play the whole Bournemouth, and these ten days are just enough for Mycroft to come to a big cleansing by remote control.

Perhaps his actions will be big, but the Prime Minister of the McCroft phenomenon will also turn a blind eye to his actions, after all, it is in the interests of the British Empire.

Shopping, probably everyone's favorite, because Sherlock came home normally today, so Lestrade left the two Sherlock Holmes at home and took the bear children out to the supermarket by himself.

On the way here, they chattered a lot of things they wanted to buy, after all, they were still children except Hannibal, even if Harry looked like a big brother, he couldn't help but turn into chatter in front of Lestrade. Lestrade enjoyed the time with the children, so he laughed along with them as he talked about the things he wanted to buy and the little stories.

"Mycroft didn't even get angry with you?"

When they talked about how they had played a prank on Mycroft lately, Lestrade almost bent over with laughter, and oh my God, he didn't expect that Mycroft would one day be pranked, and it was clear that because he was a child, Mycroft wouldn't take their pranks to heart, even though the pranks were really unexpected.

"Of course not, or Dad would have kicked him out."

Merlin jumped up to the front and said loudly, and Lestrade rubbed his hair and said, "Because Mycroft is a gentleman, don't play any pranks on him." ”

"He's taking up so much of Dad's time!"

It seemed that they were still angry that Mycroft had taken up too much of Lestrade's time, and Harry turned his head and said unusually sternly, "And Miss Angelia's breakup with Dad must have been caused by Mr. McCroft taking up too much of Dad's time." ”

Lestrade was still shocked, when Angelia broke up with him had something to do with McCroft, and he said with a smile: "My Harry baby, how did you come to this powerful conclusion?" ”

"Because when Dad broke up, it was official, when Mr. McCroft was injured."

Well, in fact, Harry was still worried about this matter, he couldn't say it in front of Mycroft at home before, and this time he asked casually when the family finally came out.

Lestrade beckoned to Harry and called him to his side and said, "The breakup has nothing to do with McCroft, my little angel, don't think about it, you'll bring up Dad's sad story, remind me that this old man has been dumped again." ”

Lestrade made a sad expression for Harry to immediately change his tone and comfort, "Dad will definitely meet a better person, Miss Angelia is not as good as she thought, and we don't care if the future Mum is male or female, Dad just likes it." ”

Lestrade looked at Harry and smiled and didn't speak, but he was thinking in his heart when he said that the stepmother of the bear child was...... Male?

He's a heterosexual!

"We are temporarily on hold for the time being, and now the most important thing is our holiday! Now go and choose what you want, Harry and Hannibal are the captains, and the rest of the babes are up to you. ”

Because if nine people walk together to buy something, it will definitely affect the efficiency, it is better to separate a little faster, and wait to set a time to gather. Lestrade knows what his bear children are capable of, and they will buy what they want.

The final grouping was as follows, Harry was with Loki, Saul and Tony, while Hannibal pushed Raven and Harold in a group, and Merlin was hugging Lestrade's thigh just now, as if he didn't want to leave, but Lestrade picked up and said, "Okay, Merlin and I, let's go look at the groceries." ”

Lestrade glanced at his watch and said, "Meet in half an hour, let's go pick out new swim trunks together, and remember to call me if there's something, okay?" ”

β€œYes!”

Lestrade kissed the bear's children on the head and said, "Then let's go." ”

β€œGooooooooooo――”

Because the things they wanted to buy were different, so they were almost divided into three ways, and there were two days left before the holiday, and they still had to eat during these two days, so Hannibal was ready to take a look at the food, and that day Reestrade's flower trotters gave Hannibal an idea, and he carefully studied the Chinese recipe in private, and found that there were many dishes that looked good, so he was going to buy ingredients and try it.

For example, the dumplings are very good, and the cheese and pork are his top choices.

Harry, on the other hand, went to buy the children's camera that Tony wanted, and a lot of fun little things.

And Lestrade pushed Merlin to start wandering around in the daily necessities, the one thing that is bad about the children in the house is that everything is used quickly, just like now that the toothpaste has run out, Lestrade takes Merlin to choose the toothpaste they will use for the bear children with different preferences. Lestrade held up the fruit-flavored toothpaste and asked Merlin which one he liked, and Merlin scratched his head and said, "It's all good." ”

"Absolutely."

There were other daily necessities to buy next, and Merlin took Merlin's hand and pushed the cart on, Merlin was actually a shy child, and at first he seemed a little reluctant to use his little talent in front of Lestrade, or Merlin dared to use it in front of his brothers after Lestrade encouraged him. Lestrade didn't know what Merlin had been through, but after the official adoption, he fell in love with him more and more, because he was so distressing.

If Lestrade established a new worldview and morality for Hannibal, then he also took Merlin out of shyness and inferiority to become more lively, just like now he has a children's toothbrush and begins to tell Lestrade about the cuteness of the little animals above, and Lestrade also patiently listens to where he is talking without interrupting.

The child changed the subject very quickly, and he crouched in front of the storybook and began to think about which one he should buy.

"DadDad, Mycroft's storytelling is particularly interesting."

"Really? So do you like to listen to it? ”

Merlin nodded vigorously, he liked it very much, even Loki would fall asleep every day in the childishness of complaining about the story, in fact, they both knew that Loki also liked it, but he was hard-mouthed.

"So Merlin is going to buy a storybook and go back to McCroft to tell it, right?"

What Lestrade didn't expect was that after Raven, Merlin was also subdued by McCroft, that man really had to be liked.

"Yes."

Merlin chose for a long time and finally held a historical story in his arms, he said that he had grown up, those childish stories were no longer for him as a big boy, he wanted to hear historical stories.

"Okay, let's go to the next place then."

Lestrade pushed the cart and walked forward with Merlin, talking and laughing, and just then a little boy walked past them, he was a little taller than Merlin, but he looked about the same age, probably because the little boy was so cute that he only needed a glance to remember it. He has blonde hair, a somewhat baby fat face, and big blue eyes, which are very beautiful.

When Lestrade sighed in his heart that the little boy's genes were good, he didn't know why Merlin suddenly stopped, he didn't know why he suddenly cried, as if there was no warning. The weeping Merlin startled Lestrade, who immediately picked him up and asked, "Dear, angel?" What happened to you? Is there something uncomfortable? ”

Merlin wiped his tears with his little hands and shook his head vigorously, his voice still crying, "No...... It's uncomfortable, I'm just ...... It's just that...... Suddenly, I wanted to cry. ”

Seeing Merlin crying like this, where was he still in the mood to go shopping, he hugged Merlin and patted him on the back and said, "Honey, I'm here, what can you tell me?" ”

"Dad, I, I just want to cry, I don't know, I don't know why."

Merlin cried even more as he looked at the direction the blonde boy had just left, and for some reason he felt a kind of sadness when he saw that person, as if that person was someone he had known for a long time and been looking for for a long time.

But he didn't know the boy......

Lestrade coaxed him but Merlin still cried as much as he could, for no reason, and when the bears came back in half an hour, he saw the rabbit version of Merlin, his eyes were red in Lestrade's arms, Hannibal looked at Merlin who was still sobbing there and asked Lestrade, "Greg, what is this?" ”

"I don't know, Merlin just said that he was suddenly very sad and wanted to cry."

Merlin's tears seemed to drop on the tip of Lestrade's heart, although Merlin is also a tear bag who likes to cry on weekdays, but it was the first time that it seemed so sudden, and there was no reason or discomfort.

"Merlin who never grows up."

Loki looked at the red-eyed Merlin and said.

Thor took his hand and said as if to himself, "I hope my brother can be so cute as little as he is." ”

Loki: β†’_β†’

But Merlin had stopped crying by this time, and Lestrade was about to hold him anymore and put the man on the ground, he crouched down and looked at Merlin and said, "Honey, are you alright?" Shall we go to the hospital? ”

"Dad, I'm fine."

Originally, Lestrade was not at ease, but Hannibal checked Merlin to make sure that he did not have any signs of illness such as fever, so Lestrade changed his words and said: "Okay, then there is something that must be said, and you don't want to stay in the room when you go on vacation." ”

"I'm fine, great!"

Merlin, fearing that he would be left in the room, immediately showed Lestrade a strong posture, and Lestrade kissed Merlin's rabbit eyes in distress, and then told the bears to go on to the supermarket and buy everything.

Merlin smiled and took Harry's hand and began to ask if they had bought any good food and if they had their own.

The crying just now and the unexpected encounter with the little boy left Merlin behind.

Outside the supermarket, a couple pushed a cart and waited for their child to come, the boy with blonde hair was the cutie who had just met Merlin. He took the woman's hand and looked back at the supermarket, just now he seemed to feel something and like he had missed something, anyway, the feeling was indescribable, but his heart was a little uncomfortable.

"Arthur, what are you looking at?"

"I just met a beautiful little brunette boy......"
