live with conscience

It's another day, chatting, who has the highest degree of topicality when it comes to Britain?

In the past, it would probably be the Queen of England...

Now, it's probably Sherlock the Inspector.

Great British detective, a handsome guy with a strange hat, and his assistant, Dr. Watson.

Almost all the major social networks are reposting his miraculous case-solving experience.

Based on these, it occupies the top topic list?

No, solving crimes is too bloody, too brutal, and too destructive to humanity. If you watch too much, you will feel hopeless in life and despair of society.

The reason why our Sherlock Holmes takes the top spot this time is...

Smiling face, he is getting engaged.

Such a freak boy finally got the blessing of Cupid and got engaged!

His friends, police officers and inspectors who have worked with him, exclusive fans, former customers, and even homeless people who helped him enthusiastically, all received invitations to the engagement banquet.

The first time I received it, apart from frequent accidents and shouting to God... Afterwards, I posted the invitation on social media.

Those who have something to do, posted the scene of the police car accident where Inspector Lestrade was holding the invitation in a daze...

And his assistant, Police Officer Sally, was also secretly photographed in a picture of her lipstick crookedly drawn...

Anyway, London seems to have experienced a round of earthquakes, which is quite joyful.

These are one of the reasons why this topic has become more popular. What is even more interesting is that the place where Detective Sherlock got engaged was a very luxurious private castle in Scotland!

And the owner of the castle is said to be a very rich and beautiful single lady!

The surname exactly matches the woman's surname on the invitation.

There are too many places where you can associate and conjecture!

The popularity of the topic just kept rising to the point where the whole people paid attention.

And our Inspector Lestrade gave up his police car, immediately asked for leave, took a taxi and rushed to No. 221b, Baker Street.Hell, he needs to know first hand.

God knows what terrible things will happen if this bastard doesn't pay attention for a while.

Based on his previous experience, this is no joke.

In order to sneak into Magnussen's office, the bastard Sherlock actually bought a ring and proposed to Jielin!

Well, a bastard with a high IQ, he is not surprised to do this. The problem is, he was shot in the hospital in a case of proposing marriage, and he was almost saved!

He had to figure out what kind of messy case this bastard was involved in this time.

The last marriage proposal almost cost me my life, but this engagement won't turn into a terrorist attack in England!

As for authenticity?

Ha ha……

Inspector Lestrade said that the boy would fall in love and get engaged, and he might as well believe that Sherlock and Dr. Watson were true love.

Pushing open the door of No. 221b Baker Street, ran up the stairs: "Sherlock... you... uh... you are really well-rounded."

The landlord Mrs. Hudson standing in front of the kitchen door, John Watson sitting in the exclusive seat, Mycroft Holmes on the sofa, and Jasmine Amber standing in front of the window with a complicated expression.

The only thing that was the same was that everyone present was holding an invitation card, which said that you must attend the engagement ceremony between Sherlock Holmes and Lin Lan Edward.

The protagonist of the invitation, Sherlock himself, is no exception, but the one holding the invitation obviously just woke up after staying up all night, still wearing pajamas, slumped on the single sofa, staring and raising his eyebrows, narrating the words of Inspector Lestrade After finishing speaking: "What do you want to do, you bastard? What strange case are you planning to intervene in?"

The tone was also very impatient and irritable: "Inspector, is your car okay?"

"As the protagonist of the engagement." Sherlock glared at Mycroft: "My dear brother, can you tell me why I was suddenly engaged to your younger brother? And, as the person involved, I was the last one to know! "

Mrs. Hudson, the landlord who was also holding the invitation, also joined the denunciation camp: "Mr. Holmes, are you using Sherlock for some shady deal again?"

Inspector Lestrade was a little confused about the situation: "It's not Sherlock, it's Mycroft? Who is the engaged..."

Watson also didn't recover from the shock of receiving Sherlock's engagement invitation in his lifetime: "The invitation card says...Sherlock."

Mycroft put on a government worker's smile and false emotion: "Inspector Lestrade, Mr. Watson, don't worry, and don't doubt whether the sun is rising from the west today. The engaged person is indeed me." Dear brother, Sherlock Holmes is right, I am here today to tell you that I am very pleased that my brother is also getting engaged."

Sherlock Holmes looked at Mycroft with the expression that you are starting to be stupid again today.

Mrs. Hudson couldn't see it: "Mycroft, what the hell is going on! You can't make fun of Sherlock's marriage, engagement is not a child's play!"

Mycroft returned to a serious face, and gave an explanation: "It's just what you think, a family marriage."

Sherlock sarcastically said: "I really didn't know that Sherlock Holmes is also a family." Picking up the engagement invitation, he folded up the folder: "The ancient parchment invitations are rarely used by anyone except the royal family and nobles. It was custom-made by a special person, and this post is obviously the latest cut, but the paper is not new paper, based on the degree of light and dark oxidation, it is speculated that it is not stored in a sealed environment, but the paper used in daily use."

After flicking the invitation card, you can still see the gold powder falling: "The pure gold powder and self-made pollen on the invitation card show that the owner is very careful in making it. The cost of such an invitation card alone must be due to a very educated person. A traditional family, I don't understand, such a family would have a crush on our Sherlock Holmes family..."

Imitating McCoff's formulaic voice, Sherlock concluded: "This kind of person is more likely to fall in love with you."

Mycroft didn't know what to think of, his face turned dark again and he returned to normal. He shrugged and spread his hands: "I also think that if the other party chooses me, I will definitely agree to it and even hold the wedding right away. Unfortunately, they just fell in love with you. You bastard. But...you have to agree!"

Absolutely don't let the stupid brother know that he also recommended himself, but it's a pity that people despise him for being too old!

"Why!" Sherlock finally exploded, jumped up from the sofa, and shouted at him condescendingly: "Mycroft! You finally can't help but want to control my life like you control the British government!"

Mycroft sighed: "I also told the other party about your situation, but the other party still decided to choose you, so I will help you agree." Before he continued to explode, he speeded up his speech: "Put away your irritability of staying up late and lack of sleep. , because I know that you will not refuse this choice, so I agreed for you."

Watson finally regained his sanity and loosened his stiff neck: "My God, Mycroft, I want to know why you think Sherlock will agree, it's...too..."

Watson couldn't find the words to criticize Mycroft: "It's ridiculous... What do you think marriage is?"

Inevitably, those present thought of the dead Mary, Watson's wife.

That is the eternal pain of Sherlock and Watson!

Mycroft half-raised his hands in a gesture of surrender: "I can explain that this is also for Oulos, our sister..."

Speaking of Oulos, the irritable Sherlock still controlled himself to calm down, sat down again, and motioned: "Give me an acceptable reason."

Mycroft said in a tone that could not be rejected: "I will only say these words once. After I say them, you also forget them. Anyway, I will never admit that I said these words in the future."

"Lin Lan Edward, his great-grandfather, Jack Edward, 94 years old, is the head of al-Qaeda in the Middle East. He is a British citizen. He has never returned to China since he left the UK 50 years ago. He has a completed job in his hand. Top-secret research materials and a group of mad scientists."

It was no surprise to see Sherlock's sarcastic smile: "Is he going to destroy the world?"

Too lazy to coax the giant baby brother, Mycroft rolled his eyes and continued: "He is about to die, but the things in his hands are being watched by all countries. Because of my father, he found me. As long as the Holmes family is willing to protect his Great-granddaughter, these things are British."

"Oh? And then!"

"He also disclosed news that other countries do not know. In addition to the top-secret research, he also has a more important research that has stopped at a key place. The reason is... the calculation method of the test, today's super The brain can't even figure it out! The program must be redesigned. I recommend Oros, no one can compare to our sister, you and I know it well."

Raising his hand again, he signaled Sherlock, who was about to explode, to be calm: "A period of five years of protection, in exchange for the chance that Oulos will make up for it."

Sherlock caught the point: "Five years of asylum?"

McCoff nodded, breathed a sigh of relief, and finally explained the key point: "Yes, a fake engagement. Of course, old Edward doesn't mind turning into a real engagement. After five years, the relationship between you and your fiancée is over, whether it is you or She, as long as one party does not agree to continue this relationship, this engagement will be invalid."

If you like it, then...

Well, get married.

He didn't understand why old Edward was so confident.

Sherlock Holmes, his brother would want to marry, no, that would be a nightmare!

After listening to the explanation, Sherlock was no longer irritable. Instead, he seriously considered the feasibility, and at the same time asked his question: "Why do you want to get engaged? You don't need to do this to protect someone."

The corner of Mycroft's mouth twitched: "The men in the Holmes family... oh... Before they got married, they were all bastards, bastards..." Ignoring the horror of the people present, especially the dangerous gaze of his younger brother: "That's not what I said, it's that According to a grandfather Edward, he said, "It is undeniable that the men in the Holmes family are jerks before marriage. However, Holmes men are born to defend their sovereignty and protect their shortcomings. People who are on their territory, even if they sacrifice their lives, will not be fooled." I will protect you to the end.’ I can’t refute this.”

Watson nodded in agreement: "Indeed, the incisive summary, at least for you, Sherlock, is quite accurate."

Sherlock glared at Watson dissatisfied, and threatened the snickering landlord Mrs. Hudson with his eyes, and Inspector Lestrade who agreed.

Only Jasmine, who has always had a crush on Sherlock, can empathize.

Sherlock is indeed a bastard!

"What's the relationship between him and his father?" Sherlock recalled his younger sister's shy and hopeful smile when he visited Oulos recently, and his heart softened: "If it's only five years, I can accept it."

Mycroft seemed pleased that his brother asked the question: "Father's teacher and our parents' witness."

Finally, he was no longer the only one shocked.

You know, when he heard the news, he almost couldn't maintain his expression.

"...What do I need to do?" Sherlock was very sure: "This business can't be so simple."

"Look, my dear brother, as a Sherlock Holmes, I knew you would agree." Macoff smiled, and the content was very rich: "The most basic thing is that within five years, you must ensure that your fiancée is intact." No loss, the rest, just let you discuss it yourself and let me know. The engagement ceremony is a week later, and I hope to see a perfect Sherlock Holmes. Do you have any comments or questions? I have an appointment Lin Lan, she will arrive in about 10 minutes."

"Ms. Hudson?" Mycroft stood up and bowed to the landlady very rarely politely: "I'm afraid you have to add a new tenant. It's quite a generous and wealthy tenant. I think you should be able to get along very well. .”

The landlady, Mrs. Hudson, was still immersed in the trifling marriage views of the two brothers, and couldn't get back to her senses: "No... God... Mycroft and... Sherlock, what do you think of engagement... so It's ridiculous, it's unbelievable, you treat other girls as..."

Giggling, the rhythmic sound of high heels sounded, interrupting the somewhat hysterical Mrs. Hudson.

Mycroft smiled, looked at his watch, and neatly straightened his collar: "Lin Lan is such a sweet girl, she is too punctual, to be honest, Sherlock, I am really jealous of you! "

His actions made everyone look towards the door, including Sherlock. They were all curious about what kind of person this fiancée would be.

The first to appear were two upright male and female old housekeepers.

The wrinkles on their faces could no longer be concealed, but the rigor on their bodies remained the same, they walked silently, and their backs were straight.

McCoff first walked forward and hugged the two butlers respectively: "Mr. Smith, Mrs. Smith, welcome." And: "Lin Lan..."

The two old butlers stepped aside, revealing a long-haired girl in a white Victorian-style layered dress.

She wears a hand-woven shawl with balls of falling hair, covering most of the lace borders on her chest, her hair is simply tied on top, and her ponytail is tied with a rubber band strung with a few pearls, although apart from a bracelet of five-color beads on her hand, No more accessories.

However, the first thing everyone noticed was the well-bred ladylike aura emanating from her body, and only then did they notice her delicate appearance.

Strictly speaking, according to the aesthetic standards of the British, this lady with obvious Chinese features is really just ordinary.

However, everyone often says that temperament is the biggest weapon to add points to beauty.

This young lady is the kind of beauty who can overwhelm the beauty of others with her own temperament alone.

A set of simple outfits gave her the feeling of wearing an evening dress abruptly!

McCoff shook hands with Lin Lan very gracefully: "Welcome, allow me to introduce, this is my incompetent younger brother. You can call him Sherlock. Sherlock, this is your fiancée for the next five years, Lin Lan. Edward."

"Hello, Mike, nice to meet you!" The girl's unique and peaceful voice, you can know that this is really a real lady.

All eyes were on Sherlock, who was in sloppy pajamas, and Lin Lan, who was smiling decently.

The first feeling is!

It doesn't match at all.

If they were still arguing against Sherlock at the beginning, as soon as the legendary fiancée appeared, their position would shift to the fiancée in a second.

Life is a mess, all kinds of bastard Sherlock, how can he deserve such a crystal-like lady!

What a mismatch!

"Oh my god!... Sherlock, you really hit your luck!" This is Inspector Lestrade who spoke very objectively. He knows that some people are jealous these days. Man, he doesn't understand, anyway, it's good that this bastard didn't get involved in the messy things: "I still have something to do, so I'll take my leave first."

When leaving, he shook hands with Sherlock very happily: "You are a lucky young man, I will attend your engagement ceremony, work hard, boy! Bless you!"

Mycroft shrugged: "Need to clear the venue and give the two of you some private time?"

Sherlock looked at Lin Lan in disgust, and refused without thinking about it.

"unnecessary!"

However, the unanimous words came from the mouths of the couple who are about to get engaged.

Mycroft, who wanted to slow down the scene, frowned, and he signaled with his eyes that his brother should not go too far!

Watson and Mrs. Hudson, who were looking for a chance to leave, were also inexplicably embarrassed, and they also condemned Sherlock's gaze.

Sherlock has never been such an obedient person, his sharp eyes scanned the girl who was said to be his fiancee from head to toe.

Full of loopholes.

There is still a little mud on the tail of the hair above the waist, which corresponds to the mud on the skirt of the soles. It was not in a hurry, and it has been dried for a while. But with obvious cocoons, it looks like someone who takes care of flowers and plants for a long time.

Moreover, the clothes were not new, and there were mud stains on the hem of the skirt that had been washed in several places but could not be cleaned.

After taking care of the flowers and plants, he went out slowly. He didn't change into the expensive clothes, which proved that the other party didn't pay much attention to this engagement.

"The level of light here is not suitable for you to plant flowers and plants. Moreover, I don't like the smell that affects my sense of smell."

Lin Lan smiled: "It's okay, you are Mrs. Hudson, is this the landlord?"

Mrs. Hudson smiled with tears of relief: "Oh... yes, my dear, I didn't expect that Sherlock's fiancée would be... would be..."

Lin Lan took two steps in a very friendly manner, and took the landlady's hand: "I can understand, because I never thought that the fiancé my great-grandfather arranged for me would be like this..."

The words stopped here decently, but the unfinished words are very reminiscent.

Mycroft, Watson, Mrs. Hudson, and the forensic doctor Jasmine who has been standing by the window without any sense of presence: ...

Sherlock was disgusted.

Inexplicably want to laugh so much!

"But it doesn't matter. I believe that my great-grandfather will never harm me. He always has his own reasons. I can only trust him. After all, he is the only relative I have left."

Mrs. Hudson, with well-developed tear ducts, suddenly felt sorry for this well-behaved girl: "My poor child!"

Lin Lan shook her head and said: "I am very happy, not pitiful, thank you, Mrs. Hudson, I just want to ask, can I rent all the remaining rooms here? Of course, if you allow me to do some If you make a small change, I will thank you even more! After all, I will spend the next five years here, and I hope we can get along happily."

Mrs. Hudson: ...

What?

Mycroft also had a dull expression on his face, which was completely inconsistent with... the data!

The housekeeper, Mrs. Smith, frowned disapprovingly: "Miss..."

Lin Lan turned her head and faced the housekeeper's wife, her voice and expression were very decent and loving, very ladylike——

"Mrs. Smith, this is my decision. I have had enough. Although I have always known how authoritarian he is, I am not surprised that he will arrange for me a fiancé he likes. Even, I thought , He will continue to be authoritarian and arrange for my son and daughter! Since he is so capable, why did he throw me to others in the end! Heh..."

Everyone: ...

What a lady!

Lin Lan didn't care about the thoughts of the people present at all, and continued her topic: "Is it possible? Mrs. Hudson, don't worry, when I move out, I will help you rebuild this building exactly the same. We can agree to explain of."

Mr. Smith looked helpless: "Miss."

Lin Lan sighed: "Don't worry, Grandpa Smith, you are all old, just prepare for your evening honeymoon with peace of mind, don't worry about these anymore, I promise, you will stay here for five years obediently You know, I have always done a good job on how to be an obedient child! If rebellion can make the autocratic emperor angry for a few more years, I will do it!"

Mycroft had no choice but to speak: "Lin Lan...I'm sorry!"

According to the data, this young lady is really a model of a good child since she was a child, and she is simply impossible to find fault with.

It's really a little guilty to be bound with my younger brother now.

"No need to apologize, Mycroft, you don't have to worry, I promise, I will arrange my own affairs without affecting your brother...my fiancé's daily life, and will not cause you any trouble."

Mycroft: No, that's not what I mean.

"It's only five years, and it will pass soon." Lin Lan said apologetically, "Mr. Holmes, since we will be a fiancée, I will call you Sherlock. I don't know the relationship between you and your great-grandfather. There is no deal, but I have been a good girl for more than [-] years, and I will continue to be obedient to his last wish. I don't want him to leave without peace of mind. However, I also want to make a small request , can I ask you to promise me?"

It's rare that the Sherlock brothers are very serious.

Mycroft: "Please. As long as I can."

Lin Lan was very sad: "I know... it is impossible for him to come back alive. As his only family member, we have never met or exchanged a word. Even the Christmas present I prepared for him every year has never been sent out. , However, I still thank him for protecting me, I just hope that you can...bring him back, I will bury him in Edward Castle, and let him accompany his parents."

Mycroft thought for a long time, then nodded: "...I promise you. Kind girl."
