Alex looked stunned, as if he had forgotten what to do next, this plan Sherlock was originally meant to let himself, it was not difficult for an adult, but he was always worried about this, worried about that, so he refused the other party's proposal without thinking about it, originally thought that Sherlock could escape safely, but he didn't expect his naïve idea, but he personally sent the other party into a situation of no return.

At this moment, the six-pointed star array pattern drawn on the ground by the other party with blood suddenly emitted a dazzling purple light, and there was already a handsome man wearing a black tuxedo with a pair of red eyes standing in the dark place.

He had been hanging his head all the time, but at this time he suddenly raised his head and looked at Alex with a frightened face, but there was a mockery on his lips that was almost nothing, and said: "A cowardly and cowardly guy who can only escape, a shrunken turtle hiding behind others, it seems to be a waste for you to live." ”

When Alex heard this, he couldn't help but show a look of extreme fear on his face, in fact, at that moment, he almost wanted to refute, but he didn't dare, because his heart was weak.

It is true that he is afraid of death, so he chooses to retreat at a critical moment, Sherlock clearly knows what kind of person Stanley is, everyone is afraid of death, but he dares to block everything just to arrest the murderer, even his life, why is he so cowardly, compared to a boy who is only fourteen years old, he is simply extremely ugly and ridiculous

Alfred no longer has the interest and mood to talk so much nonsense with the coward in front of him, and the most important thing is that Sherlock used to treat this friend sincerely, and never did anything to hurt the other party, and even took out his own sincerity, but Alex crushed it with a merciless kick.

By this time, the sky was already white, and the faint light of the morning glow stretched Alfred's shadow for a long time, and he looked back at the house that had been engulfed in flames, and there was a rotting, stinking corpse hidden in it.

Suddenly, there was a "bang", and the house was suddenly shattered by this sudden explosion, and half of an arm that was burned black and blood-red flew out of the way and fell into the grass on the side.

There was a charred silver-white pocket watch next to the arm, and a small photograph of the lid, half destroyed by the fire, but it was clear from the blue eye that the person in the picture was Sherlock, who gave it to Alex as a token of friendship.

At this moment, Alfred, who was supposed to have left with Sherlock, returned at this time, bent down and reached out to pick up the pocket watch on the ground, since the other party betrayed it first, and this one is also dead, then this so-called should also end here, and the pocket watch should also be recovered.

Sherlock didn't know how long he had been unconscious, he only felt a dry mouth, a burning pain in his throat, and the pain all over his body was unbearable, and he saw the maid's clothes neatly stacked on the side, and suddenly, the previous memories flooded back, and then a strong shame and resentment suddenly spread in his heart.

He was sold to the White Lotus by his father and sister on his fifth birthday, and I remember the first and only time you knew what your father said about you, saying that you Sherlock was a dirty, shitty thing.

Those people had seen it, but none of them had come to his aid, not even Alex, the person he trusted the most.

He will make those who have insulted him and trampled on him pay the price of blood one by one, and let them pay with blood.

The weather in the UK is always unpredictable, and in this winter, when the wind is bitterly cold, the wind and snow are everywhere covered with snow,

Sherlock woke up from his memories, remembering that he didn't seem to have seen Alfred's figure recently, this was the first time he had disappeared for so long, could it be that a sense of foreboding rose in his heart when he thought of this, at this moment, the black gentleman had walked in front of him for some time, he looked up at him, but saw him take out a letter, Sherlock took the letter and opened it and took out a pocket watch from inside, he knew this pocket watch, It was the day that Ella, the maid of the Edwin family, was killed, and he and Alex went together to find out what he really wanted, because of the betrayal of the other party, his life was ruined like that

However, when Alfred signed a contract with him, he clearly promised that he would always be by his side until he completed his revenge, but he broke his promise, and Sherlock threw the pocket watch in his hand out of the window, and said coldly: "This pocket watch has no meaning anymore." ”

On the Locke commercial street in Atlante, England, a carriage drove forward unhurriedly, and then the carriage slowly stopped on the side of the road, Edvina opened the door and got out of the carriage, and ran to the bookstore without caring about the image, and took out the horror novel called "Soul", which is the fourth work of the famous novelist / Margaret Denis / , paid three hundred pounds sterling and ran back happily with the book There are all kinds of shops on both sides of the street, Edvina looked out through the window of the car, and was far behind by their carriage, and couldn't help but feel very amused, and sure enough, it was still the kindness of her homeland.

At this time, Edwina saw a horror novel of "Soul" on the shelves in the bookstore on the side, and quickly stopped the carriage, Sherlock looked at him suspiciously, I don't know what she was attracted to, and then saw that the bookstore called "Mina" had horror novels called "Soul" series on the shelves, but these series have long been sold out in Atlante, England, I am afraid that they can only be bought in Italy and France, in Italy a total of five thousand euros, In France, it costs 1,000 francs for a single book, and there are 10 films in the whole series, which cost 10,000 francs when sold together.

Then the carriage came to a slow stop on the side of the road, and Edvina opened the door and got out of the carriage, and ran to the bookstore without any image, and took out the horror novel called "Soul", which was the fourth work of the famous novelist/Margaret Dennis/, paid three hundred pounds, and ran back happily with the book.

But after Edwina got into the carriage again, she didn't have to be happy for long, but Sherlock said something that she couldn't accept at all: "Margaret Dennis's novel "Soul" series has been sold out in China, and you can't buy the original version unless you go to Italy or France, but the price is very high, and it will cost you a thousand pounds a copy in China."

"What do you say, it's sold out? What about this ......"

Edwina's hand holding the book couldn't help but tremble, and for a moment she only felt that the blood was flowing backwards, she was a loyal fan of the "Soul" series of novels, but she didn't expect to be happy for most of the day to buy a fake.

"This book is not written by her, it is just a counterfeit—" But before Sherlock could finish his sentence, the other party had already covered his ears with his hands and shook his head vigorously: "I don't listen, I don't listen...... the following six words are omitted......

Sherlock looked at her exaggerated behavior in amazement, and was almost stunned for a long time before he became angry: "Edwina! ”

Edvina gasped for breath very exaggeratedly after hearing this, rolled her eyes and almost turned her back on her breath in the end, and only breathed a sigh of relief after pinching it for a long time, she looked at the book in her hand with a complicated expression, and finally seemed to have made up her mind, and raised her hand to throw the book out of the carriage window, but her hand was just raised in the air but was stopped by the other party: "Why throw it away, isn't it better to keep it as evidence?" ”

Edwina may have been confused, obviously so easy to understand, but now she is a little incomprehensible, and she can't help but ask in confusion: "Evidence?" What evidence? Edwina was white after hearing this, and there was a hint of puzzlement on her pretty face.

"yes." After Sherlock finished speaking, he took the book, opened the cover, pointed to the name of the author on it, and said, "Martina Dennis is the sister of the original author, Margaret. ”

"My sister is copying my sister's work, it doesn't seem too serious, right?" Edwina was surprised when she heard this.

Sherlock disagrees with her: "It's not something that can be said with family affection, it already infringes on the intellectual property rights of the original author." ”

"How did you start caring about the law and solving crimes?" Then it took Edwina a full half a minute to remember, she forgot that the other party had been solving the case all along, "Oh I forgot. ”

Sherlock was almost speechless to the extreme.

Dennis Mansion, Martina is counting the three hundred pounds she got today in the room, thanks to her sister Margaret, a genius writer, if it weren't for her works so hot, she wouldn't have thought of such a way, the other party is her sister, everything is shared, and others can't say anything, that kind of brainless person, obviously you can get a lot of money by selling your works, but you have to make something that is not for sale (in fact, it was sold out). ）

A maid came to Martina's room with black tea, just walked to the corridor, but saw Margaret walking towards her, and quickly stopped to salute, Margaret's eyes fell on the red black tea in the other party's hand, and then, looking at her calmly: "You go to work on something else, I'll push this in." ”

The maid looked slightly uneasy: "Miss, this ......"

Margaret's face immediately turned cold: "Is there a problem, now my words don't work?" ”

I don't know why she became so irritable since she learned that her work had been copied by Martina.

"Yes." The maid was startled and handed the black tea to the other party and walked away quickly, Margaret looked at the other party's distant figure coldly, and poured all the white powder in the glass tube into the black tea with her left hand, Martina, I will let you know what happens to stealing the fruits of other people's labor.

Margaret's tone was extremely hateful: "It's nothing, I just want to tell you that if people don't know unless you do it, stealing other people's products won't end well." ”

This is the first time that Sherlock wants to protect a girl like this, even Violet didn't let him do this, in fact, this person can only be his relative, not to mention that there has been news from the Faulkner family that on December 20th, Violet is already engaged to the Huston of the Alhibert family.

Although this feeling of betrayal is still very uncomfortable, since they don't like each other, wouldn't it be better to be decisive and break it off as soon as possible?

The sky was dark unconsciously, and it was already time for dinner, but Alfred, who had not appeared for several days, suddenly appeared in front of Sherlock at this time, and then without saying a word, he took his hand and pulled the person directly into the room,

"Let go of me!" Sherlock finally couldn't suppress his anger, and suddenly waved his hand away, and his backhand was a slap in the face that fell on his face, his gaze was extremely sharp and cold, "Alfred, are you crazy?!" "The person who had disappeared for three days suddenly appeared now, can't he even speak?

Alfred didn't expect the other party's temper to be so bad, he hit someone without saying a word, maybe he had never been beaten by the other party, but he couldn't tolerate it, the moment his hand was raised, he was scared from the bottom of his heart when he came into contact with the other party's cold and ruthless gaze, but why? Obviously he wants to break the contract with the other party, but now he doesn't even dare to fight back, does this mean that he is just a humble ant in front of him after all.

In fact, Sherlock knew why the other party suddenly appeared today, and the purpose of making such an abrupt move, otherwise he would not be so annoyed, since the termination of the contract can be so decisive, then it is even more decisive Don't completely disappear from his eyes forever and come back to do something, he just looks at the other party now, he will feel extremely disgusting, extremely bored, he has a vague premonition of something after disappearing from the other party for three days, and he has never been so tired of a person, so, He shouted mercilessly, "Get out!" Immediately! ”
