103. The Goldfish of the British Empire[29]
Sherlock offered to hold out a hand: "Sherlock Holmes." His action made Watson, who did not understand what bloody accident had happened, almost fell his jaw, and he saw Sherlock like an ordinary man for the first time.
Moriarty was still the same shy as before, his big wet eyes flashed innocently, as if what Sherlock said before was none of his business, and stepped forward to shake Sherlock's hand: "Moriarty, Jim Moriarty." ”
Sherlock looked even more upset.
Watson saw it, let alone Gu Qing, but he looked at Watson as if he hadn't seen it: "John, I'm glad you're here." As soon as Gu Qing said this, Sherlock and Moriarty, who were shaking hands, let go of their hands and looked at him, Watson squeezed out a dry smile, and his heart was on the verge of collapse, what is he, was he shot while lying down?
And then...... So they drove back to the old house of the Sherlock Holmes.
On the way, after Watson calmed down, he began to imagine what the parents of the Sherlock Holmes were like, and basically everyone who met Sherlock would be curious about it, okay? What kind of parents can give birth to an extraordinary combination of Max + Genius Max like Sherlock?
Not to mention that not only Sherlock, but also the British government is smarter than Sherlock - this must not be said to Sherlock's face, and Sherlock will never admit it - and this is not over, there is also a little Sherlock Holmes who can make Zuò mobile phones by hand......
For God's sake, can you imagine? After you have made up a lot of extraordinary images of genius parents in your mind, and then you see a pair of ordinary old men and old ladies in the old Sherlock Holmes house, the contrast ...... It's amazing.
However, that's not all.
Watson was fortunate enough to witness the scene of the lawless Sherlock being touched on the cheek by Mrs. Holmes in his arms, and he wanted to avoid it but restrained it, and finally avoided it after two seconds, I have to say that it was really delightful!
The youngest Sherlock Holmes was Mommy's apple pie as always, and he didn't dodge when Mommy came over, but for some reason, Watson just felt a little pain in the face of Gu Qing, who looked like a good baby. Watson thought, this is probably how well-behaved he is now, but in fact, how murderous he is, think about what Sherlock said about his boyfriend who used to peel his skin, the contrast is too great, and it's not cute at all!
Watson quietly turned his gaze to his boyfriend who was playing with skinning, but the other party looked at it as soon as possible, and gave Watson a shy smile, Watson: "......" The cold hair is about to stand up.
Sherlock snorted.
Moriarty turned his head casually, Gu Qing turned his head sideways and took the initiative to take Moriarty's hand and introduced him to Mommy and Daddy.
Next, how to say it, #丑媳妇见公婆#的过程是很平和的. For one, Moriarty, like Sherlock Holmes, is proficient in disguise and has superb acting skills; Second, never underestimate the enlightened Cheng of the Sherlock Holmes family, after all, if you can raise three extraordinary Sherlock Holmes, that is really not an ordinary person, and at least the one you bring back is a real person, isn't it?
Watson thought to himself that this was very ordinary, there was no sword and sword shadow as he imagined, and Watson, who accidentally opened his brain, said to him with a smile from Mommy, "Oh, you are from our family Xiali-", I don't know which tendon was not straightened, so he rushed to answer: "No, no, I'm not GAY!" ”
Mommy finished speaking: "Roommate? ”
Watson reluctantly remedied himself before he could embarrass himself: "Yes, I'm sorry, because there are many people who misunderstand my relationship with Sherlock, I have a girlfriend!" Uh, I mean, I'm Sherlock's roommate. ”
Mommy patted Watson on the shoulder and said kindly, "Don't worry, child, we didn't misunderstand, welcome to Sherlock Holmes's house." Daddy smiled happily beside him.
Watson: Is it too late for ...... to turn around and go back to London?
Sherlock put his hand in his coat pocket and whispered in a tone that I don't know whether it was regret or discouragement, "The earliest train back to London is tomorrow at seven o'clock-" Before he could finish speaking, Mommy's voice came: "Charlie, bring your friend in." ”
Sherlock reluctantly flattened his mouth, kicked down the wall before entering, and tilted the knocker again.
Watson slowly realized what Sherlock meant, and Sherlock was happy to take the earliest train back to London instead of staying at home for Christmas.
Well, Sherlock has been particularly restless lately, and the number of group ridicules has increased, and the director has complained about Scotland Yard, but after knowing that Sherlock is going home for Christmas, they have found a way to deal with Sherlock, talking about Christmas, playing Christmas songs, Anderson singing Christmas songs, etc., and then causing Sherlock to be more irritable, and the number of group ridicules will increase, and so on.
Watson inexplicably remembered that when he saw Mycroft for the second time, McCroft asked him, "Can you imagine what our Christmas dinner was like?" What did he say?
Watson's inner activities were about to break through the sky, but Gu Qing kindly pulled him back: "John, what I need to state is that in the Sherlock Holmes family, there is no discrimination. ”
Watson: "??? ”
Gu Qing blinked and said, "For example, a straight man." ”
Watson: There are really too many slots in the sentence "......", which makes people can't say it! Also, why did he feel like a century had passed since he first arrived at the Sherlock Holmes house, and he was so tired!
Fortunately, Mrs. Holmes's delicious snacks and Mr. Holmes's tea soothed Watson's messy feelings.
Sherlock placed his hands in front of him in a tower, his eyes with light iris looked lighter and more like inorganic matter, filled with emotion, and his sharp gaze was fixed on Moriarty sitting on the couch across from him.
Moriarty was very calm.
Sherlock's eyes were half-narrowed, and he felt like he was going to explode the other person's head with his mind← this was the idea of Watson, a real goldfish, and he already felt the imminent danger of the atmosphere, but what puzzled him was that the youngest Sherlock Holmes was not there. How did you drop the chain at a critical time!
Saying that everyone had arrived, Gu Qing came over with a dinner plate and placed it in front of Sherlock.
Sherlock gave up killing Moriarty with his gaze and instead stared at his brother: "What are you doing?" ”
"Obvious, isn't it? Eat the food in front of you, or would you rather I'm going to tell Mommy, it's been fifteen hours since you last ate. ”
After two seconds of staring at his brother, Sherlock reluctantly said, "I'll eat now, and I'll have fourteen hours and fifty minutes." ”
"Uh-huh." Gu Qing let out a sticky snort from his nose, which sounded a little sarcastic and dissatisfied with being corrected by Sherlock. "I know."
So you just prepared a sandwich and milk for Sherlock? Sherlock obediently picked up a sandwich and stuffed it into his stomach. In this way, the relationship between their brothers is not as stiff as he thought on the surface, and the Holmes have special skills for expressing brotherly affection, or what?
When Gu Qing sat next to Moriarty, Sherlock snorted dissatisfiedly.
Watson decided to empty himself, and he immersed himself in Mrs. Holmes's traditional Christmas dessert English cake, which was very delicious with layers of fruit, cakes, jelly, the sweet aroma of fruit and soft cream. After Watson finished eating a serving, he looked up again and was glanced at by the youngest Sherlock Holmes and his boyfriend, oh oh, are they kissing? And Sherlock's face was completely blackened.
#眼见不为实#啊华生.
Moriarty leaned into his ear and said aggrievedly: "It's him who doesn't like me~"
Gu Qing moved his lips: "That's normal." In fact, Sherlock basically didn't like anyone, and even Mycroft didn't get any good looks from him, so you can imagine how surprised Sherlock was that he found himself a roommate in such a short period of time, and lived with him for more than a year without an accident of "the former medic killed a bad roommate".
Moriarty rested his chin on Gu Qing's shoulder, pretending to be dissatisfied and said, "My dear, it makes me sad that you say that." ”
"Just tell the truth." Gu Qing's eyes were half-squinted, and the warning was very obvious. Moriarty flattened his mouth, remembering that this was the old Sherlock Holmes mansion, so he restrained his perverse posture and sat upright.
It just so happened that Sherlock gave a comment: "Boring! ”
Watson, who simply thought they were kissing, covered his face silently, and couldn't expect Sherlock to learn to look at it!
Gu Qing continued to eat his dessert without blushing and his heart beating, Sherlock was originally leaning forward and wanting to tear it apart, but suddenly leaned back as if deflated, and muttered: "Dead fat." ”
Gu Qing blinked: "Mycrof is back." ”
Watson reflexively looked to the door, where was McCroft, but he seemed to hear the sound of brakes. After figuring out the joint, Watson suddenly thought that his five bodies were thrown to the ground, and the Holmes should leave the earth quickly!
After a while, Mycroft entered the door gracefully with his black umbrella, which he never left, and of course, the black umbrella that was already hanging behind the door when he came calmly, and he bowed his head to the crowd with a reserved bow: "Good afternoon, gentlemen." ”
Gu Qing and Sherlock rolled their eyes in unison.
Naturally, McCroft saw the "welcome" of his brothers, and he gave them a conniving, disobedient childlike look, and then looked at Moriarty, "Aren't you going to introduce me, Patrick?" ”
"Come on, Mycroft! You've found out who he is, and you've met him, no, not in some underground parking lot, but at the Diogenes Club. It seems that his identity is more troublesome than I think, of course, he can direct and act in a fake death to get out, and he also deceived Patrick, of course he is not simple. So, what happened later? Reunion of husband and wife after an enforced separation or rupture? It's so boring! Sherlock jumped almost out of the couch, transformed into an AK47, and swooped out his subwoofer.
"Sherlock," Mycroft called Sherlock, "don't frighten our guests. ”
Watson shrunk his neck, he felt that McCroft's words were not aimed at him, but he just couldn't help it, the current atmosphere was too terrifying, in order not to be killed or something, he retreated decisively: "Uh, I'll go outside to take a breath." ”
Mycroft turned his head to Moriarty with a friendly smile - at least on the surface, it looks weird after Sherlock has performed so much - and did not say anything, but looked at Gu Qing, who pursed the corners of his mouth and introduced them to each other: "Moriarty, this is my eldest brother." ”
Hearing this, Mycroft's smile widened, and apparently after Sherlock's prompting, he also remembered what had happened back then, which he had not known before. The feeling of oppression spread, and despite the unbearable intimidation that he would have brought to others by not having to do anything, he eventually reached out and shook Moriarty, who was not affected.
As for Sherlock, who fired the first shot, he stared at his obsessive brother, Gu Qing was annoyed by his staring, reached out and picked up the apple that was originally placed on the plate for Sherlock to eat, stuffed it into his hand, and said unhappily: "Eat your apple, Sherlock." They're in the living room, a dining room and two walls away from Mommy and Daddy's kitchen, and he's trying to maintain his image of being a good and obedient apple pie.
Sherlock seemed to have a belly ready to say something, but in the end he held back, sat down on the sofa like a cat, and said to his brother in a commanding manner, "I don't eat skin." ”
“Fine.” #国民好弟弟#脾气很好的答应下来, and then with a dagger as thin as a cicada's wing, he began to peel the apple.
Sherlock was a little satisfied, and he watched his brother peel apples for him to eat, and stopped staring at Moriarty, sneering at Mycroft before looking down and pulling out his phone, seemingly nonchalantly fiddling with it.
McCroft unbuttoned his suit jacket and sat on the couch closest to the fireplace, pulling his gaze away from his two younger brothers and looking at Moriarty, who, as Sherlock had said, had wasted much effort finding out who Moriarty really was—a consulting criminal. Based on the information he was able to gather, Mycroft had to admit that he was a criminal genius who could match the Sherlock Holmes in intelligence, which marked his danger level.
For a variety of reasons, they met, and Mycroft got answers to what he wanted to know, arguably most. As for his attitude, it is enough that Moriarty will follow his young brother back to the old mansion at Christmas Day smoothly and safely. Now, however, Mycroft thinks it needs to be thought through. "I didn't even know that Mr. Moriarty had such a long connection with our family."
Moriarty glanced at Gu Qing, who was burying his head in peeling apples, Gu Qing didn't look up, he didn't even stop peeling apples and said, "I thought you were omnipotent, Mike." ”
Mycroft sighed slightly, and his face softened a little as he looked at his younger brother, "Since you don't want to talk about that matter again, then we won't talk about it anymore, and Mommy's name is Mycroft." Of course, he didn't ignore the momentary stiffness of the guest.
"What was Mommy thinking when she named us?" Gu Qing handed the peeled apple to Sherlock, who pouted and said, "I probably remembered her pregnancy pains." Then he "clicked" and took a bite of the apple.
Moriarty lowered her eyes to hide the darkness under her eyes.
……
Watson, who came out to breathe, took a breath, and suddenly felt a cold on his face, he slowly realized that it was snowing, and was about to go back to the house, when he heard footsteps coldly, and without waiting for Watson to think about it, he heard someone say: "What do they mean?" Think I'm not worthy of you? ”
Watson: "?!! "Wait, this is the rhythm of sprinkling dog blood? What did the Holmes do? ← former military doctor selectively ignored such a bloody thing as skinning.
Then Watson heard the youngest Sherlock Holmes say, "Yes." ”
Watson: Has the "......" EQ been added to the IQ? At this time, you should say no, even if you tell the truth! The former military doctor, who has the nickname "woman who sleeps all over three continents", thought. There was movement over there again, "Sure enough, I'm just a stand-in for you, you never forgot your first love!" ”
Watson rubbed his chin secretly, this is even more bloody than he imagined, don't damn what he's doing, it's not good to eavesdrop on people's **, it's all Sherlock's fault. Watson bared his teeth and tiptoed away as he could. As everyone knows#Hearing is also false#, after he walked away, one of the male protagonists in the bloody story put his hands around his chest, "Your usual hobbies are really hard for me to agree with." ”
Moriarty didn't look angry and said, "I thought you would argue with your first love." The tone is soft, but there is darkness leaking out of it.
Gu Qing put down his hand, put his hand into his trouser pocket, and raised his eyebrows: "So are we going through old accounts now?" Jim. ”
The name seemed to be turning on a switch for something, Moriarty's pupils suddenly dilated, and then pulled Gu Qing's collar to bring his face closer, and kissed his lips.
……
Watson tiptoed into the house, and was startled by Sherlock, who played the black-faced god at the door, "What the hell are you doing?" ”
Sherlock took a few bites of the apple in his hand and gnawed, Watson remembered the conversation he had overheard, and then looked at Sherlock, who was exuding an air of "I'm super upset", Watson had to be glad that they were now at the Sherlock Holmes house, not 221B Baker Street. After all, Sherlock is not happy here to gnaw on apples, if it were in 221B, it is estimated that Mrs. Hudson's wall would have to be torn down and rebuilt, it has already suffered too much, and it needs no more. But then again, "Are you not happy that your brother has a boyfriend because you think he, uh, is not a good fit for your brother?" ”
Watson did not repeat what he heard, but replaced "unworthy" with "unsuitable".
Sherlock snorted, "That's McCroft's business, it has nothing to do with me." With that, he threw the leftover apples into the trash bin and went back to the living room.
Watson rolled his eyes, would he die if he said that he cared about his brother? Watson followed a few steps, and when he saw Sherlock and McCroft talking, he thought about it and didn't want to be cannon fodder, so he turned around and went to the kitchen, where he felt he was still fit to stay with the Sherlock Holmes.
Then he stayed with the honest Mr. Holmes for a while, and learned that Mrs. Holmes was a well-known mathematician when she was young, and that she had published books, and he was ashamed, thinking that it was good that there was still a common man here Mr. Holmes. But when I think about it, living in the Sherlock Holmes family, surrounded by geniuses, Mr. Holmes can still maintain an optimistic nature, and that is not an ordinary person!
Mr. Holmes suddenly said, "Oh, it's hard to be roommates with Sherlock." ”
"Ugh." As a person with very normal emotional intelligence, it is obviously wrong to speak ill of other people's children with other parents, and he was about to find a tactful to speak, when he heard Mr. Holmes laugh and say, "Sherlock is a smart child, but his emotional intelligence is too low, oh, the emotional intelligence of the three brothers is low." It's not like Mommy at all, and I don't often feel like I'm being crushed by my IQ when I'm with Mommy. Hehe, you know what I'm talking about, right? ”
Watson: "......" I fucking know that! It's just that I feel weird about this conversation.
But Watson didn't stay in the kitchen for long, and Mrs. Holmes made punch for him to serve, but when Watson got to the living room, he found that only the youngest Holmes was left, and he casually asked, "What about the others?" ”
Gu Qing sat on the single sofa with his hands together, raised his head and replied after hearing this: "Well, Mycroft said he wanted to talk to my boyfriend, and he is now in the study upstairs, as for Sherlock, I don't know where he went, he didn't say." ”
Obviously, when Gu Qing and Moriarty came back from the outside, the brothers who had deduced what they had done as soon as possible were furious, and before the situation was out of control, McCroft proposed to talk to Moriarty alone, and they went up to the second floor to talk alone, as for Sherlock, he disappeared the next moment.
Watson blinked, decisively remembering his own accident of being softly kidnapped by the little black car, as well as the previous saber-rattling, and the overheard conversation...... In an instant, the brain hole was opened, and the blockage couldn't be blocked. He put the punch on the table, and then looked up at the youngest Sherlock Holmes, who looked like a college student in a sweater and checked trousers, and snuggled up on the couch with his eyes down, the fire in the fireplace reflected on his face, adding a sense of vulnerability and loneliness.
Watson's heart relented, and he organized the next words and said, "I'm sorry. ”
Gu Qing asked silently.
"Uh, I mean your first love, he was killed, right? That's why Sherlock said to be skinned or something, and your current boyfriend said stand-in, sorry I didn't mean to eavesdrop on your conversation, uh, so please mourn. After Watson finished speaking, he watched as the youngest Sherlock Holmes was stunned for three seconds, and then burst out laughing uncontrollably.
That's right, laughing.
Gu Qing smiled and fell on the armrest of the sofa: "Dear John, allow me to praise God for your sense of humor, hahaha." ”
What fragility and loneliness, that's all shit! Watson already felt that he had nothing to love, so he took the punch and poured it into his mouth mechanically, and drank what he had given to the others. Wiped his mouth and stacked the wine glasses on the table, I don't know if it's an illusion, he seems to have seen a few ants, and when he looked at it again, there was nothing on the table, he felt that he was dazzled, and he seemed to have drunk too much, the former military doctor thought dizzily.
Gu Qing smiled enough, leaned on the armrest to support his forehead, and his ant team climbed down the table in a row and left. Mycroft said that he wanted to talk to Moriarty alone, and he obediently let them talk alone, but he didn't say that he couldn't eavesdrop, didn't Sherlock also ambush in the study?
At this time, the advantages of his ant team are highlighted, although they are not intelligent enough, they can be pervasive, and they are more extreme than McCroft's CCTV+ agents.
Gu Qing sat downstairs listening to the broadcast of the ant team, the warmth gradually gathered in his eyes, the light snow outside the house had turned into a heavy snow, but the old house infiltrated in it revealed warmth and peace.
How wonderful.
……
……
Dr. Watson, who was moaning in pain the next day on the train back to London, did not want to think about the messy Christmas that had just passed and the whole world!!
