Isaac's expression reflected his mood faithfully, and Anderson expressed his understanding.

After all, even he himself couldn't believe that one day, he would do such a thing.To be honest, after being ridiculed by Sherlock's poisonous tongue for so long, he originally thought that if something happened to Sherlock one day, he would set off fireworks to celebrate.

It's been a long time since Sherlock's leap, and Anderson has come to his senses from the joy of proving that Sherlock was just a grandstanding liar in the first place.Although Sherlock once ridiculed him for lowering the IQ of the whole street, his ability is not bad, it's just that he unfortunately met a genius who can knock people's self-confidence into the dust.

It can be called a vicious circle between Anderson and Sherlock. Sherlock treats everyone equally and is impatient to talk to stupid goldfish.Anderson, whose self-esteem has been hurt, always wants to get back on the scene, and the more anxious he is, the more he makes mistakes. Coupled with Sally's matter, it's no wonder that the relationship between the two is not deadlocked.

But when something really happened to Sherlock, everyone thought he committed suicide in fear of crime, and Anderson felt something was wrong instead.

That was Sherlock, Sherlock Holmes, his old enemy, the bastard who made his teeth itch with hatred but could do nothing, would he really commit suicide so easily?

No matter how convinced others may be, he thinks it's just another Sherlock trick.

However, no one understood him.He didn't believe that other people didn't suspect that Sherlock might have been wronged before, but everyone's attitude was to avoid talking about it. Even Lestrade, who was the friendliest to Sherlock, persuaded him tactfully, saying that Sherlock was dead and don't continue. Tossed.As for Sally, she also started to get bored with his constant entanglement on this matter, and sherlock teased them so many times that they never broke up, and now because of Sherlock, their relationship was in jeopardy.Not to mention that his marriage is also on the red light, and his wife has separated from him.

"I know it looks a little ridiculous." Anderson was a little depressed, the people in front of him knew about his bad relationship with Sherlock, and even one of them turned away from Sherlock, "I..."

"No, no, no, this is not ridiculous, sit down first." Issac interrupted him, "I also believe that Sherlock will not die so easily, he must have used some method to fake his death and leave. This question also It's been bothering me for a long time, and I didn't expect you to have this idea. After all, I've been here this time, and the people I've met who also know Sherlock think he's dead."

"Do you think so too?" The surprise in Anderson's eyes was unmistakable, "They all think I'm unwilling to accept the truth because of guilt, but I've dealt with Sherlock too many times, and even though he's a jerk, he's also an asshole." Unparalleled genius, he used to hang out with some bad people, and tried all kinds of dangerous things. I have been to his room at 221B Baker Street more than once for a drug search, but since he has Dr. Watson This roommate has already begun to correct himself."

"That's right, since he has John, he doesn't even have the possibility of killing himself out of boredom." Although the person he was talking about with was a bit unexpected, Isaac was still very enthusiastic.What do people who follow dramas hate the most?It was the end of last season that left a big mystery, but due to personal reasons, he could only think that the show was cut in half.Of course he could guess the result, but he couldn't figure out how it came about.

Isaac felt that he had lost and gained, and began to discuss with Anderson, who had been upgraded to an important plot character.

Reid listened for a while, and couldn't resist joining the discussion.

In the end, dinner was ignored, and it wasn't until the restaurant closed that they realized how much time had passed.

Anderson still has some ideas, "Tomorrow I will take you to see the building where Sherlock jumped." He said, "Field investigation is always more reliable than imagination, maybe this will bring new inspiration, or discover something that was not there before. noticed."

Isaac and Reid nodded happily, but he suddenly remembered something, "Tomorrow is Friday, don't you have to go to work?"

"I can ask for leave." Anderson said indifferently.

On the way back, Reid noticed that Isaac was in a good mood, "Are you happy?"

"Hmm," Issac admitted, "doesn't it sound like a puzzle game to you? The reward at the end is a living Sherlock."

"Are you sure that's your reward?" Reid said with a smile in his voice.

"Uh." Isaac was speechless for a moment. In the memory fragment, he and Sherlock did not seem to be very friendly, and later dug a hole for him to jump into. I don't know if he held grudges.But in front of Reid, Isaac still bravely said: "Someone will be happy about it. Besides, what I care about is not the reward, but the enjoyment of the puzzle-solving process."

Reid groaned, not sure if he believed it or not.

Isaac just thought he had convinced him.

The next day, Anderson drove them to the place where Sherlock fell.The bustling traffic has already recovered there, and it is completely impossible to see that anyone has fallen here. Anderson walked over and made a virtual circle with his fingers, "Sherlock fell here when he jumped off, and there was a white line crossed at that time, but it has disappeared long ago, and only I remember it."

Isaac took a few steps back and looked up at the tall building, "There must be some mechanism in it, otherwise there is almost no possibility of surviving by jumping directly."

Anderson coughed lightly, "One thing, I don't know if it's accurate or not. After Sherlock jumped off the building, I didn't believe that he died just like that. Because of the ridiculous crime of committing suicide in fear of crime, I did a private investigation around the place. Looking at the circumstances, some people say they heard gunshots before Sherlock jumped off the building."

"Gunshots?" Isaac repeated unconsciously. Didn't the police know about Moriarty's existence?

Are you kidding me?

Anderson thought it was because Isaac didn't know about it, and he didn't mind revealing a little dry stuff to like-minded friends.Many things, he found out himself after Scotland Yard closed the suicide case, "Yes, gunshots. And this gunshot was heard by some people, and some people said they didn't hear it. I'm assuming there was a gunshot." , and then asked someone to make a model, and finally got two locations where a shooting could occur but someone could hear it and someone could not hear it within the same distance, and one of them was on the top of the building."

"You are amazing." Compared with Anderson, Isaac felt that he was really inferior.

There's a hint of pride in Anderson's eyes, and he's really proud of himself for being able to do this.

"Assuming that there was more than one Sherlock on the roof at that time, there might have been a fight between the two of them. During the fight, the man fired a gun in his head and shot himself. In order to hide his killing or killing by mistake, and to let him get The already infamous reputation will not get worse, Sherlock has come up with a golden plan to get rid of the shell!" Anderson suddenly felt that everything made sense, and this thought suddenly appeared in his mind, and the more he thought about it, the more likely it was That's how it looks, "That person is dead, so Sherlock teamed up with the brother of his government official, and asked him to send camouflage supplies to dress that person up like himself, then called Dr. Watson over, and put that person Throw it down and create a witness to your own suicide. Sherlock is a jerk, but we all believe in Dr. Watson!"

"Wait!" The more Isaac heard it, the more he felt wrong, "Do you think Sherlock still killed someone and then pretended to commit suicide?"

"That makes sense!" Anderson's pale face flushed with excitement, "I said a long time ago that if one day Sherlock wants to kill someone, he will be able to clear himself of the crime so that we can't catch him. .Just like this time, we all thought he was dead, but it was someone else. But if Sherlock appears in the future, we will only feel that he survived with a method we don't know, and we won't realize the real truth. The one who lost his life."

It never occurred to Isaac that he just wanted to find someone to find out how Sherlock survived jumping off the building, and in the blink of an eye he was charged with murder.

"And what about the corpse?" Reid asked suddenly.He believed in Sherlock's innocence, and thought Anderson's thinking was wrong.Without evidence, he can't refute it directly, but he can start from other places. "If it's not Sherlock, it will be found at the autopsy."

"Sherlock's brother is very powerful. From the beginning to the end, the case of Sherlock's 'suicide' by jumping off the building did not pass Scotland Yard, let alone the autopsy." Anderson was a little frustrated, but he was more convinced that the Holmes brothers had jointly done it.

"About the identity of the corpse, do you have any guesses?" Isaac looked at Anderson, inexplicably feeling a little headache.

He thought that his brain hole was big enough, but he didn't expect that there are strong hands among the strong.

Anderson suddenly looked around, and this cautious look made people have to be serious.

"I suspect it's Moriarty who was sent to court by Sherlock before, and then bit him back after winning the case," he whispered.

Isaac really wanted to give him the thumbs up.Obviously his guess was far from the truth, but he was not wrong on this point.

"After the court won the case and cleared his charges, Moriarty accepted several media interviews, and all his actions were controlled by Sherlock. He is a puppet." Anderson analyzed in an orderly manner, "At first, I believed what he said. , but in retrospect, I don’t even know why I believed him obsessively. Maybe what Sherlock said in the trial was right, and Moriarty did all this, and he was the mastermind behind it.”

"So, you believe that Sherlock was innocent before?" Isaac was a little dazed by Anderson.For a while, they said that Sherlock did kill someone and faked the suicide scene, and then said that Sherlock was innocent and Moriarty was the culprit.

This tone became a little faster.

Anderson seemed to see Isaac's doubts, and explained, "It's not contradictory. It's precisely because Sherlock was innocent before that he was more likely to accidentally kill Moriarty who framed him. Because of anger, because he believed in him in the end." People have been... confused by the evidence Moriarty presented, you know, even a freak, he has people who care."

"Why a fumble and not a deliberate revenge?" Isaac asked.

"If Sherlock really wanted to kill someone, he wouldn't leave any evidence," Anderson said. "I still insist on this. He is a genius, and he is a criminal genius."

If he hadn't known the real situation at the scene, Isaac would have been convinced by Anderson.This set of logic can be completely explained to any ordinary person, but Sherlock?

"Good reasoning." Isaac praised first, "But you overlooked one thing. Compared with hand-to-hand combat, Sherlock and Moriarty are essentially the same kind of people. They are not the kind of people who disagree and fight. They I prefer to arm myself with my mind and crush my opponents with IQ. Fighting? Too rude."

Anderson's brain, which was heated up because he thought he had discovered the truth, finally calmed down a bit, "Really? Sherlock has always been a maverick, and it's not uncommon to take the subway with a harpoon covered in blood. It must have nothing to do with the brain." ..."

"Are you sure it's not him doing the experiment?" Isaac also got a little impression when Anderson said it.

Anderson opened his mouth, thinking of the things he found during the search of 221B, he didn't dare to insist.

"But there is indeed no news about Moriarty, he seems to have disappeared." Anderson added a little unwillingly.

Isaac didn't speak, but Reid glanced at him instead. Reid remembered very clearly that Isaac had said that Moriarty was dead, and what happened to Jack London this time was likely to be plotted by Moriarty's organization behind the scenes.

Anderson took Isaac and Reid downstairs for a few laps, and Isaac suddenly thought, "Is there any problem with the ground?"

"What's wrong with the ground?" Anderson was taken aback.

"For example, if people don't know it, they have made a camouflage. From a distance, it is indeed the ground, but when they look closely, they find that it is an inflatable cushion?"

"No, if that's the case, people will bounce if they fall on it." Anderson felt that this was even more unreliable than he thought. "Also, according to Dr. Watson, he ran towards Sherlock when he jumped from the building, and he was the one who did the initial examination to confirm that Sherlock was not alive. I would suspect that he didn't see through the disguise of the body because of his grief, but If there's a problem on the ground, he won't be unaware."

Isaac nodded, admitting he hadn't thought it through.

After going downstairs, they entered the building.It may be because of the jumping incident that happened here, and the door leading to the roof on the top floor was locked. In the end, Anderson showed his identity as Scotland Yard to find the administrator to open the door.It was all very formal, and Isaac swallowed the words that someone would pick the lock.

The rooftop is very open, and now I can't see what happened at that time. Isaac turned around on it with great interest, and finally leaned on the fence to look down.

"Is this fence a rear mount?" Reid asked Anderson.

"Yeah, after that incident," Anderson said, "It's all about safety, and Sherlock has brought some changes to the world."

Anderson didn't stay on the rooftop for long, Lestrade's call came quickly.Lestrade on the other side of the phone seemed furious, and Isaac, who was loud, could catch a few key words.

Anderson seemed to skip work to be with him.

This made Isaac feel inexplicably guilty.

"I have to go." After hanging up the phone, Anderson sighed. "Without Sherlock, the crime rate in London is still high. I'll send you back first."

He had driven to the hotel to pick up Isaac and Reid in the morning, and brought them here.

Isaac wasn't sure why Lestrade was looking for Anderson urgently, but Anderson was a medical examiner, and probably had no reason other than murder.So he rejected Anderson's kindness, "London's transportation is very convenient, we can go back by ourselves. Don't make the detective wait too long."

Anderson clearly wasn't completely out of his mind about Sherlock, and after apologizing for having to leave first, he quickly went downstairs and left.

"Isaac," Reid said after watching Anderson leave and waving him goodbye before getting into the car. "Moriarty's death hasn't even been heard by Scotland Yard."

"That's right, it's very strange." Isaac didn't think there was anything else to do here, so he greeted Reid and left the rooftop together, and didn't speak again until he got on the elevator, "Someone must have intervened in this, it was done cleanly, Completely over Scotland Yard."

"Anderson says Sherlock has a brother who is a senior government official." Reid suggested a suspect.

"It's entirely possible." Isaac thought of the gentleman of the British government, with a receding hairline and a figure that was always laughed at by his brother Xiong. He couldn't change his sweet tooth addiction even if he had to undergo dental surgery. "But why did he do it? It can't really be the Anderson theory that Sherlock accidentally killed someone."

"Not necessarily." Reid lowered his head and tidied up his satchel. "There is no doubt that there is a criminal group behind Moriarty. It may involve national interests..." At this time, the elevator stopped on the first floor, and he and Isaac came out. Walking through the hall, I saw a car obviously waiting for someone parked at the door.

At this moment, the windows of the back seat of that car were rolled down, and a beautiful brunette woman gestured towards them.

"She seems to be inviting us to get in the car." Reid looked at Isaac with some confusion, "Isaac, do you know her?"

"No." Isaac shook his head, of course he didn't know her, but this standard pair made him feel familiar.John had received such an invitation when he knew Sherlock, and he had the backbone to refuse Mycroft's request to spy on his troubled brother.

"Maybe I misidentified the person." Isaac casually said a reason, pulling Reid to avoid it.

Maybe it was because Isaac's avoidance attitude was too obvious, the people inside had to open the car door and come to a formal invitation, "Mr. Costa, Dr. Reid, there is a gentleman who wants to talk to you."

"Who is it?" Reid didn't feel like he knew anyone like that in London.He is not as obsessed with cars as Isaac, but he can also see that the owner of this car is by no means an ordinary person.

"Maybe Mr. Costa knows." The brunette beauty didn't answer directly.

Reid looked at Isaac.

"A small government employee, I guess?" Isaac felt a little headache, and this trip seemed inevitable.

The brunette showed a polite smile, neither acknowledging nor denying, but the attitude of not letting them leave unless they got into the car was clear.

Isaac has to admit that this trip to London exceeded expectations. Not only did he visit the place where Sherlock jumped off the building, but he also had the opportunity to deal with the British government... Damn, he doesn't like the ultimate version that can see through people at all Is it OK to deal with Holmes?

It's just that when things come to an end, he has no chance to refuse,

The legendary little black car is very comfortable to sit in. I don’t know if they have calculated the traffic lights in advance. The road is unimpeded, and the last place they arrive at is not an underground parking lot. Isaac had to admit, he was a little disappointed.

When the brunette beauty told them to get off the bus when they arrived, Isaac still asked the question he had endured all the way: "Can you tell me your name?"

"Abby." The brunette replied.

Sure enough, changing the name at any time, Isaac is satisfied with this discovery.

The Holmes brothers were not easy to mess with, Isaac reconfirmed this after meeting Mycroft.Compared to Sherlock's Holmes, who can stretch out his claws and scratch each other, Mycroft is more mature and less messy.He didn't say a word, but the aura around him was exuding the message of being in a high position for a long time.

"Mr. Costa." He nodded to Isaac, with a reserved and indifferent attitude, and when it was Reid's turn, he brought a little kindness, "Dr. Reid, Sherlock once mentioned you to me."

"You are?" Reid had an answer in his mind, but it hadn't been confirmed yet.

"Mycroft Holmes." After Mycroft's words confirmed Reid's guess, he looked at Isaac again, "There is not much time, I guess Mr. Costa knows why I invited you here. In order to be more open and honest, you can talk about your doubts first."

"My doubts?" Isaac had sensed Mycroft's discriminatory treatment.Could it be said that a high IQ really deserves preferential treatment?Hearing Mycroft's words suddenly, his reaction was a beat slower.

"Not bad," Mycroft said.

"Nice suit." Isaac complimented, still not having the guts to be too presumptuous in front of Mycroft.

But who is Mycroft? Sherlock's deduction was still taught by him. Issac's small thoughts could not be hidden in front of Mycroft. He kept his face calm, but took a breath quietly, trying to make his belly smaller.

The author has something to say: Xiao Ai: The suit is good, and the belly is not visible~

Maggie: …… damn you
