Chapter 17 The Fog of London
The early morning in London is an unknown shrouded in mist. Being in it is like coming to this world. What you see in your eyes is only two or three parts of the original appearance, but the real and mysterious world hidden in the mist is far from being touched by her. It is said that it is far from being touched.
Breakfast is a typical English breakfast made by Mrs. Hudson. Others are fine, but bacon is too greasy for Athena as a breakfast. I am used to Chinese breakfast and want to quickly adapt to British breakfast. It is a bit reluctant, including The lunches and dinners she ate in the past few days made her miss Chinese food especially.
The two of them ate breakfast calmly among the piles of chemical instruments and messy function books, and Athena didn't even care to use Sherlock's book to line the dinner plate.
While eating fried eggs, Athena thought about cooking a delicious Chinese meal in two days. Mrs. Hudson put the black tea by Athena's hand and complained: "John and Sherlock haven't come back yet and don't know How are things going!"
After hearing Mrs. Hudson's words, Athena couldn't help but looked up in surprise and asked, "Didn't they come back all night last night? Didn't they call back?"
Mrs. Hudson shook her head and sat down too.
"It stands to reason that it shouldn't take that long! Could it be that the place they went to was already empty and they didn't find the person they were looking for?" Mrs. Hudson said.
But soon this idea was vetoed by Athena, Athena lowered her head and concentrated on flipping the fried eggs and said: "Impossible! If people go to Loukong, they should have come back long ago. They want to catch them." Harold's group of people looked like they were specifically deceiving ignorant girls like Sophie to seek family property, and they must have run away after the clues were published in the newspaper!"
Mrs. Hudson nodded, and the two of them stopped continuing the topic that Mrs. Hudson was not interested in. Instead, Mrs. Hudson began to care about Athena's life.
"Young girl, are you going to stay in London forever?"
"I think so! I don't want to go back to Paris, but when I go back to my parents, I will be told to get married early. I think it's better to stay with Mike. With him , I have a lot less pressure." Said Athena raised the teacup in hand.
After hearing this, Mrs. Hudson echoed her words: "You can't be sloppy when you marry. A rich and beautiful girl like you can live happily even if you don't marry, but it's really bad if you marry the wrong person."
Athena chuckled and asked jokingly, "You say that...do you think you married the wrong person?"
"To some extent, you can say that!" Mrs. Hudson smiled but did not explain, which made Athena wonder if Mrs. Hudson mentioned in the book had no husband?
At least Athena didn't see her in this room. Could it be that her husband has passed away?Although Athena was puzzled, she thought that she and Mrs. Hudson just met yesterday, and it would be impolite to ask this kind of privacy not long after they first met, so she gave up.
"Dong dong!" A sudden knock on the door from downstairs broke Athena's thoughts. Mrs. Hudson got up quickly and said, "The boys must be back!" Then she went downstairs to open the door up.
Athena picked up the napkin and wiped her mouth and was about to get up, but she heard the sound of a dog barking before she went downstairs, which made her feel even more curious. Athena walked out of the living room and lay down on the railing. It turned out that Lestrade was walking up with a corgi in his arms.
"Why are you here? You have a corgi with you?" Athena asked with a smile, her eyes were fixed on the baby corgi in Lestrade's arms. The upturned nose is as cute as a fox.
"This is a poor little abandoned one. I am a big man who is busy investigating cases all day long and I really can't take care of it. I want to come and foster him with Mrs. Hudson for a few days, and send him away when he finds an owner .”
Lestrade's words were vague, and he didn't explain exactly where the dog came from, but Athena's eyes are all on Corgi now, so she doesn't care about other things.
Just by looking at the little guy's appearance, you can tell that this corgi is not very big. The round grape-like eyes and the little pink tongue that keeps sticking out are even more adorable.
"puppy!" Athena lowered her head and hugged the dog without waiting for Lestrade to say anything else. She just smiled and said, "It's so cute and so obedient! How could anyone abandon him? It's disgusting! Gray Let me raise this little Corgi, and I will take good care of it!"
"Really?" Lestrade almost laughed out loud. He really didn't expect that this little thing that he was in trouble and didn't know what to do with would have such good luck and find its owner so quickly. Generous and beautiful hostess.
Now he can relax and go back so he can give an explanation.Little Corgi will be well taken care of by Athena, which is a comfort!
Lestrade tucked the blue cloth wrapped around Corgi's body, as if he was being careful with a newborn baby. He looked at Athena's smiling face and said shyly, "I was afraid you wouldn't like it." What! I didn't expect..."
"How could it be? How can anyone in this world not like corgis with short legs?"
While Athena was talking, the little corgi in her arms stretched out her tongue and licked her chin, which made Athena laugh non-stop with her eyes closed.When Lestrade saw this, he was about to take it immediately, and in the confusion, somehow he felt a pair of tender hands that belonged to a girl.
"Um~ Yes, I'm sorry!" Lestrade withdrew his hand and only slightly lowered his head.
However, Athena is now fully focused on Corgi, and doesn't pay attention to what Lestrade is saying at all. Lestrade gave up and said nothing when he saw her smiling eyes.
"Mr. Inspector, how were you doing last night? Why haven't Sherlock and John come back yet?" Mrs. Hudson walked over and followed slowly.
"Eh..." Lestrade turned around quickly when he heard the voice: "Things are not very good. When we arrived last night, the building was already empty. There was still charcoal burning in the room where Paul and Melas were tied up. The Greek gentleman Paul was beaten to death...it was too late, we couldn't save him. But Mr. Melas, the translator, is now in good condition and can only be sent to the hospital for further observation."
Upon hearing this, Mrs. Hudson quickly covered her mouth and said, "My God!"
Athena also raised her head and asked, "Did Sophie find it?"
Lestrade took off the hat on his head and shook his head: "I'm still chasing, but it's not the worst." He paused before saying: "We also found a 14-year-old in Benham's house. The young girls also speak Greek. We only found out after we brought her back to the police station that the girls were also abducted from Greece, but they are not as lucky and wealthy as Sophie.”
"They? Is it human trafficking?" Athena asked quickly, Lestrade nodded and scratched his messy hair casually: "That's right, that girl Melina took advantage of the group of people to deal with her." Gentleman Paul escaped by flipping the window in order to escape. According to her, at least a dozen girls were imprisoned in that house, none of them native to England."
"They're all girls?" Athena asked softly, and everyone knew what selling girls could do.
Lestrade's face was also very ugly, and he said lightly: "They forced those girls who couldn't even speak English to prostitute|prostitution. What's worse is that Harold and that wretched middle-aged man were not the masterminds. Now it seems that It should be that during the process of abducting Sophie, they knew that Sophie had inherited a large amount of property, and they decided to make decisions without authorization, which led to the following things..."
After hearing this, Athena and Mrs. Hudson looked a little depressed.Lestrade only comforted: "Don't worry! The entire Scotland Yard and Sherlock are on the hunt, and I believe they will find those girls."
Hudson sighed softly and said: "Oh my god, it's really scary, these people really do everything for money!" Athena glanced at her, handed the little corgi in her hand to Mrs. Hudson and said lightly: " Little Corgi seems to be hungry, can you help feed him something?"
"Oh! Of course Athena!" Mrs. Hudson looked at the little cutie who was whimpering in her arms and hurried to the restaurant.
When Athena saw her walking away, she pulled Lestrade and said, "It's a good thing that the whole of Scotland Yard is investigating this case, but what about Catherine? The murderer Jack fell into the Thames River and still doesn't know about it." Is it life or death?"
Lestrade pursed his lips and said with a serious expression: "Athena, I haven't had time to ask you something. You said that the murderer Jack pretended to be the cleaner when he was in Paris, and he wanted to attack you at that time... ...want to kill you?"
"No! He didn't want to kill me at all. If he wanted to kill me, I would have died. Don't forget, he met me when he came to Catherine's room to sell wine pretending to be a waiter. If he wanted to kill me, it would be easy for him " Athena sighed and said: "Now think about that night in Paris, he pretended to be a cleaner not to kill me, but to save me!"
"Save you? Why?" Lestrade looked at her suspiciously, "What is this Jack thinking? He killed Catherine so cruelly but then saved you?"
Athena frowned, and said coldly: "Torture me? Remind me?"
"Remind you? Remind you of what?"
Athena shook her head and said, "No matter what it is, there will be more and bigger plots behind this. Greg, what happened to Catherine will not be the end... On the contrary, I think this is just the beginning! Behind the murderer Jack There must be some deeper instigator hidden, I have a hunch that these things are definitely not aimed at me alone, I am afraid they are aimed at the entire Sherlock Holmes family."
Speaking of which, she pulled Lestrade straight to her bedroom, and Athena handed Lestrade the card she found in her stolen suitcase yesterday.
"I found this last night, can you find a way to check it?"
Lestrade nodded and said, "Don't worry! I haven't concluded this case yet, I will investigate it!" He turned to go out, but Athena suddenly stopped him.
"Greg!"
"what happened?"
Athena approached, raised her head slightly and said word by word: "Can you help me find someone? James Moriarty, it should be a professor!"
Breakfast is a typical English breakfast made by Mrs. Hudson. Others are fine, but bacon is too greasy for Athena as a breakfast.
