Chapter 16: Here comes Holmes
As a result, this meal, which sounded full of Bai Xue's atmosphere, was not eaten, and Feng Linwan left again before school, and only Xu Xiaoming and He Yexiu were left in the meal of the three, and the two of them did not simply cancel, the two went to the small restaurant at the school gate to talk and laugh and have a meal, and then went back to their respective homes, making this incident that could have caused serious consequences (the worst possibility is probably that the anomaly carrier He Yexiu vs. Feng Linwan, the investigator of the research institute itself) became a small episode.
However, this vignette still had some effect, it reminded Xu Xiaoming of his relationship with He Yexiu. The two of them did have feelings for each other before, so Xu Xiaoming chose to confess and take the initiative to match this affection together. But when the system, abnormal events, and abnormal carriers came one after another, Xu Xiaoming couldn't bother to confess, and the few opportunities he had were all disturbed by the system that didn't work.
To be honest, his confession was originally impulsive, but the easing during this period of time eased the impulse, making him hesitate and think about whether he should be with He Yexiu again.
Especially when both of them have a lot of secrets, if they really become a couple, wouldn't they be the Smiths who are a copy of modern superpowers? Reality doesn't necessarily have to be as smooth as a movie story.
No one knows Xu Xiaoming's entanglement, most of his friends in college think that he has blown up with He Yexiu, and He Yexiu himself is very open to the relationship between himself and Xu Xiaoming, and it doesn't matter if he can achieve it or not-to be honest, her own attitude is also one of the reasons why Xu Xiaoming hesitates.
"Xiao Ming, someone is looking for you."
But no matter how entangled he is, he still has to live this day by day, and although the university courses are easy, they are not to the point of completely giving up studying. Xiao Ming's classmates were also entangled while studying, and by the way, he studied and studied a few of the contained objects he obtained, and spent his days. A few days later, on Friday, a strange uninvited guest suddenly came to Xu Xiaoming's classroom.
Xu Xiaoming subconsciously looked at the door, and then was stunned. The person standing at the door was wearing a standard Celestial Empire High School uniform, his face was childish, and his usual wisdom, calmness and stubbornness were also well concealed, but he deliberately showed some panic, cautiously probed in to find Xu Xiaoming's figure, and after finding it, he greeted timidly: "Brother Xiao Ming!" ”
Xu Xiaoming: "??? ”
- My old fortune can't be so weak!
The person who came was Sherlock Holmes, who possessed high school student Du Weiyan! As soon as he saw him, Xu Xiaoming was full of vigilance, walked out of the classroom quickly, leaned in and asked softly, "What's wrong?" ”
"Brother Xiao Ming, I have something I want to ask you for help with...... Du Weiyan said with some hesitation: "I don't know what to do, I can only come to you." ”
"Okay, don't worry, I'm here." Xu Xiaoming pursed his lips in a place where others couldn't notice, and then followed his performance, "This is not the place to talk, I'll take you somewhere else." ”
"Hmm."
Xu Xiaoming pulled him to the empty classroom where no one was around, then closed the door casually, frowned and asked, "What's the matter with you?" ”
"Brother Xiao Ming, what's wrong with you?" Du Weiyan tilted his head, "What's going on?" ”
"Let me ask you, it's just the two of us here, you don't have to pretend to be Lao Fu."
"Hey, I'm not pretending, this is called acting in my true colors." Du Weiyan smiled, and his temperament suddenly changed dramatically, from the weak and small high school student to the familiar detective Xu Xiaoming, "That's my original character." ”
The corners of Xu Xiaoming's mouth twitched slightly, and he slapped his head a little speechlessly: "Okay, what happened to you and suddenly came to our school?" Besides, how did you know I was taking classes here? Why come in person instead of contacting us on your phone? ”
"Simple reasoning, it's easy to know your information." Du Weiyan shrugged, his reasoning ability contained supernatural elements, and there was no principle at all, so naturally he couldn't explain it to Xu Xiaoming, "As for mobile phone contact...... I only left Feng Linwan's contact information, don't you remember? This time, I want to go over her and work directly with you. ”
Xu Xiaoming suddenly became vigilant, he squinted his eyes and looked at the young man in front of him, and asked coldly, "Why?" ”
"Because I don't trust her, and she's not here, right?" Du Weiyan spread her hands with a smile, "After that, I investigated a little and learned some knowledge about the 'research institute', and by the way, I also investigated Feng Linwan, and found that her recent whereabouts are very strange." This kind of behavior made it difficult for me to trust her for a while, and I could only work with her again when I had the ability to match her. ”
"Equivalent?" Xu Xiaoming thought about Feng Linwan, who was as agile and powerful as a flame elf that day, and then thought about the Master of Barton who was easily kicked by Jack the Ripper that day, he couldn't help but snort, and then forcibly suppressed his smile and asked, "So you want to get abnormal things that improve combat effectiveness?" ”
Du Weiyan's face darkened suddenly, and he gritted his teeth and said, "It's good to chat with smart people...... I do want anomalous things that improve my combat effectiveness, and you do the same, right? ”
- I'm different, I will not lack this kind of anomaly in the future, and now that I have obtained the Ripper's Blade, I am not so eager for weapons, and the dagger itself is possessed by personality and its sharpness is enough for me to solve many problems.
Of course, as long as Xu Xiaoming knows this kind of thing, it is impossible to take the initiative to tell Du Weiyan.
And he also seemed to see Xu Xiaoming's disapproval, his face changed slightly, and he was a little strange why the other party's attitude was different from what he expected. Soon, Du Weiyan's abnormal reasoning ability from Sherlock Holmes seemed to have come to some conclusions, his expression changed slightly, he regained his composure and spoke: "Although I don't know why you are so confident, maybe you have your own hole cards, but can this hole card really allow you to fight against a senior investigator like Feng Linwan?" To put it bluntly, did she really run out of hole cards when she beat Jack the Ripper that day? Now your composure stems from your familiarity with Feng Linwan and your ignorance of the research institute, so let's go home with me today, I will show you what I have learned about the institute, and then you will know why you should cooperate with me. ”
Xu Xiaoming frowned, he could feel the sincerity of the other party, and he was really curious about what the other party had investigated, he thought about it, and nodded cautiously after a long time:
"Okay."
