"This concerto must be completed with you and me! Everyone knows that Athena liked this first piano concerto very much at the concert..."

Athena sighed slightly, why does this foreigner like to put on some kind of theatrical performances at dinner parties?After the dance, she noticed that the servants moved the piano up immediately, so it turned out that they were waiting here!

The Earl of Dulle hoped that his daughter Adjani would fully demonstrate her ladylike temperament at this ball. Whether it was dancing or musical instruments, she would only highlight her most outstanding advantages, and wished to put her on display as a commodity In front of you noble young masters, it is easy to sell for a high price.

Adjani on the stage was still bragging about herself, but Leslie beside her said: "It seems that the relationship between you and Miss Adjani is not very good? Doesn't she know that you are not good at musical instruments? Or do you know clearly? ...But deliberately trying to embarrass you in front of many admirers? Since you snatched Lord Eustace in front of you just now, I am afraid that you have no chance to show yourself now?"

"You understand everything, so why ask?" Athena smiled slightly, turned her head and continued to look at Adjani, who was proud of herself, and the spectators around her booed and applauded following Adjani's words. The will pushed Athena forward.

She was almost forced to come on stage, and Adjani had been sitting in front of the piano waiting for Athena to make a fool of herself, and the servant brought up the violin.Even before Athena stretched out her hand to take the violin, countless gentlemen in front of her pulled out kerchiefs from their pockets, scrambling to make shoulder pads for her when she played the violin.

Athena sneered and turned her head to look at Adjani, who was complacent and wanted to see herself make a fool of herself. She really knew her original Athena too well, and knew that Athena would never allow herself under the brilliance of all the attention Being inferior to others, she also knew that her original body, Athena, not only liked to show off, but she also always pretended to be ignorant for the sake of face.

But what Adjani didn't know was that she had replaced her as the Athena Holmes of this world, and Adjani didn't know that her violin was heavier than the original Athena and even many people present class master.

Want to see her make a fool of herself?

Athena chuckled, she shook her head very calmly and turned her head and said: "I'm sorry, I'm not good at the violin. I think Ajani must have misremembered. I'm not the omnipotent angel in everyone's heart. God made me When I was in the world, I didn't look at me differently. I think Adjani, you must find a good gentleman or lady to cooperate with you, and that will be the icing on the cake!"

You set a trap, am I going to take advantage of it?

If you make a move, am I going to pick it up?

Always follow your rhythm, do I not have a long head?

I'm here to attend the ball and not to compete with you for No. 1 in the talent competition. It's not difficult to admit that I don't know how to play the violin.There are many people present who don't know how to play the violin. Is it a pleasure for everyone to come up and step on me because of such an insignificant matter?

They are all high-class people who want face, and they can't wait to pretend to have the broadest mind in the world, so as to show their nobility, integrity, kindness, and tolerance.

Adjani was stunned by Athena's words, and she blinked her eyes obviously not believing that it was Athena's words.

Why would Athena bow her head?

She looked at Athena hesitantly, and tried her best to maintain the smile on her face, "Why...how could it be?"

"Really! I don't know if I know it myself? Whether it's the violin or the piano, I can't! I can't! I'm not good at it!" Athena still didn't forget to put on her signature smirk , directly refused Sanlian to speak up.

And she still didn't forget to remind: "Didn't I mistake Paganini's music for Mendelssohn in that concert? You corrected me at the beginning? Why? Did you forget?" ?”

After Athena's words fell, everyone around started to discuss from the initial shock. The expressions on the faces of these gentlemen and ladies were more absurd than the mocking expressions. Miss Holmes insisted on it even though she clearly wouldn't. What's the point of calling people to perform in concert?

Isn't this an obvious way to make a fool of yourself?

Athena didn't care about the eyes of the people around her, and stepped off the stage alone, and those painting artists who didn't intend to watch the concerto talent show followed Athena all the way, almost swarming around her to ask questions He talked about painting techniques, genres, and even plans to hold an art exhibition.

As for Ben sitting by the piano, Ben is the object of everyone's attention—Ajani, but now she is once again robbed of all the brilliance by Athena. All the eye-catching colors and their pitiful selling points.

She bit her lower lip tightly, and even her tender white fingers, which were like green onions, were pinched red by herself due to shame and anger.

Damn Athena Holmes!

The damp and cold air hit Athena almost as soon as she walked out of 221B Baker Street. She was choked by the cold wind and coughed twice, and she blushed instantly.Seeing this, Vettel quickly followed up and covered Athena with the cloak made of warm fur.

He looked at the rainy weather outside the window. Even a place like Baker Street with a smooth road has accumulated a lot of muddy puddles, not to mention some people who said worriedly: "Miss, it's still raining outside and it's very cold, why don't you Why don't you go? It's just a concert, and besides, I vaguely saw that Professor James that day. Although I feel familiar, I can't remember where I saw him.

It would be inappropriate to agree to his invitation rashly without knowing the details. If you catch a cold because of such a concert on such a day, it will be even more troublesome. "

Athena stomped her feet, the cloak she had just put on had already been soaked on the fur by the rain, and the round water droplets were hidden between the soft fur, one didn't need to reach out and touch it to know how cold the wetness must be.

What a bloody hell!

But even so, at the ball that day, he had already agreed with Leslie James to attend Paganini's special concert, so he still had to go to the appointment.

"It's agreed to go, but how can we let the pigeons go without saying a word?" Athena sniffed, and even sucked a burst of cold air into her nasal cavity, even her whole body was shivering from the cold.

Seeing her persistence, Vettel had no choice but to hold up an umbrella and send her to the carriage.

"You go back! Remember to be patient when you teach Melina. When I come back to eat at night, remember to ask Mrs. Hudson to cook some delicious food for me!" Athena smiled and stretched out her hand. An umbrella that was already soaked after only a short while.

Vettel trotted up the stairs, patted the drops of water on his shoulders, and only watched the carriage go far before entering the door.

Niccolò Paganini's special concert was performed in London by an orchestra from Vienna, Austria. In this era when there were no planes, because of the inconvenience of crossing the ocean, it seemed that this concert was divided into two parts. Extra precious.

Today's show is already the last show of the local tour in London. The hard-to-get ticket for the final show can't even be bought with money. At least for Lestrade, even if he has money, Can't buy it.

He has no interest in music, and even hates such a concert where he can't make a sound and sits for several hours. It is a waste of time for him to sit on pins and needles.

The Whitechapel case has not yet been solved, and the murderer's escape is more like a time bomb. No one knows when he will commit another crime or kill again.The daily pressure from the top boss of Scotland Yard is heavier than the whole Alps for him, and the case with no clues is pending, but he is forced to come here to watch this boring concert.

Wearing a newly cut stand-collar shirt, the most popular four-in-hand knot tie around the neck, and expensive custom-made vests, suits and overcoats.All the expensive and uncomfortable clothes are just to make him look more decent and handsome, so as to win the favor of Mrs. Pembasa.

He felt that all these behaviors were not like him, why did he suddenly become a little boy just to win the favor of women?He stood down the stairs smoking a little depressed, thinking about how to deal with the concert that his father, the Duke of Lancashire, forced him to come to.

But before he could open his mouth to Mrs. Pembasa beside him, his eyes suddenly stopped on a man and a woman in the hall without moving away. The girl's hearty and charming smile was so familiar to him that he couldn't help but dream about it. of.

He bent over awkwardly, the soot in his hand had burnt out a long section, and he still didn't notice it.

"Greg? Greg?" Madame Pembasa beside her shouted, she turned her head and looked into the distance following Lestrade's eyes, and only smiled and said, "Isn't that Miss Athena Holmes? "

Lestrade: "You know Athena?"

Mrs. Pembasa did not answer his question, but instead asked: "Athena? Are you familiar with Miss Holmes?"

Only after hearing Mrs. Pembasa's question, he hurriedly raised his fingers to shake off the cigarette ash, stammered and said vaguely: "Because of my relationship with Sherlock Holmes, I often go to Baker Street... Er... ... Sherlock lives there, I mean Athena lives there with Sherlock, so it's kind of familiar."

Mrs. Pembasa narrowed her eyes slightly, with a familiar smile still on her face, and she just smiled quietly and softly in her words: "So that's how it is!"

"Yes! That's right!" Lestrade nodded without looking into her eyes.

Unexpectedly, Mrs. Pembasa folded her hands and said suddenly: "Then let's say hello together!" She couldn't help but walk to the hall where Athena and Professor James were, "You..."

Lestrade didn't even have time to say anything, he just watched Mrs. Pembasa walking forward quickly. He stood where he thought he should go with her, but his legs were stiff. Can't take a step.

The chaotic thoughts in his mind disrupted all the rationality of this man.

He wanted to know who the man next to Athena was and why he came to the concert with Athena.He also wanted to know what Athena's expression would look like when she saw him, would she care?Would you care if you came to this concert with another woman?

Even... If Mrs. Pembasa told her about her relationship, how would she react?

All these questions entangled him crazily, like vines entrenched on his body, the more doubts he had, the tighter he was wrapped around him, so that even the heart in his chest couldn't stop beating.

He still stood where he was, holding the cigarette that was burning rapidly in the cold wind.Lestrade's eyes were fixed on Athena, for fear of missing the slightest change in expression.

Mrs. Pembasa naturally didn't expect Athena to appear here, and of course she didn't expect Lestrade to react like this when he saw her.

If you can't see the complex emotions in Lestrade's eyes, and believe that what he said is Athena Holmes, who you only met because of your relationship with Sherlock Holmes at work, then these years will really be in vain .

However, Athena didn't seem to react when she saw Lestrade.If there is, it seems to be just surprise, she was surprised how Lestrade knew her, she was surprised how Lestrade would appear here, she was surprised how Lestrade would come to the music with her meeting.

But other than that, as a woman towards another woman, jealousy, excitement and anger, in Athena's eyes, there is no trace.

"You also know Inspector Lestrade?" Athena asked Mrs. Pembasa with a smile, but her beautiful eyes were already looking at Lestrade in the distance.

Since that night in Whitechapel, he hadn't voluntarily entered the Baker Street door, perhaps because Sherlock had no excuse for not being in London, or perhaps because he simply wanted to hide from himself.Anyway, Athena hadn't seen him for a long time.It's just a pity that today he is dressed so handsomely but he didn't come to see me. Instead, he came here to attend the concert with Mrs. Pembasa.

This can't help but make Athena feel curious and surprised. Mrs. Pembasa has a great reputation, and Lestrade has such a personal relationship with her. Could it be that... Lestrade is one of her many lovers?

Mrs. Pembasa did not answer her question, but instead asked, "Why...you know Miss Holmes too?"

"Oh! I'm very familiar with it. Inspector Lestrade often comes to my brother Sherlock's house to discuss cases with him. I also live in my brother's house, so I'm familiar with it!" Athena smiled and looked away, and looked at the Madam Pembasa said lightly.

The two spoke the same words, but Mrs. Pembasa didn't believe that there was nothing between the two of them. If there was nothing, why would Lestrade still stand there upright, not even refusing to come over to say hello?

But Mrs. Pembasa didn't ask any more questions, she just said goodbye to Athena and Professor James after a brief exchange of greetings, but Athena tilted her head still puzzled and said to herself: "Reis How did Triad come to the concert with Madame Pembasar?"

Professor James, who took off his hat beside him, still looked at Mrs. Pembasa and Lestrade in the distance with his hands behind his back. He turned his head to look at Athena in a very leisurely manner. He asked with a smile Said: "Why don't you know? Inspector Lestrade asked to marry Mrs. Pembasa?"

"what?"

The author has something to say: Yesterday, many little angels left messages in the comments and felt that the progress was a bit slow. They felt that the female supporting role was too annoying and there were too many scenes.

I think maybe I didn't write out the characteristics of the supporting roles, the characters are not full enough so that everyone thinks these supporting roles are very cumbersome, but I will continue to work hard haha!Regarding the slow progress, I swear I have no word count!My weight dropped below 80 jins by lying

In the process of writing, besides the plot, I will also work hard to improve my writing, add details, and plant foreshadowing. There are actually many love lines and career lines at the dance, including some tricks and annoying behaviors of Adjani. It reflects her character.

From my own point of view, these are all necessary descriptions, otherwise the XXXX (no spoilers) written later will be given too quickly, and everyone may feel very inexplicable and hasty!And it's only from the heroine's point of view, it mainly revolves around the heroine!

As for the male protagonist, he is mainly busy investigating the case, and he is not qualified to enter a dance party of this level. According to my original outline, he will appear today.I know and understand the mood of the little angels reading this article. On the one hand, I hope everyone can be more patient. After all, this article is not over after 10,000+.On the other hand, I will continue to work hard to do better, and I will try my best to enrich the plot so that everyone feels that the content is not empty.Thanks to the little angels who voted for me or irrigated nutrient solution during 2020-07-1322 36:19:2020~07-1422-03 45:[-]:[-]~

Thanks to the little angel of irrigation nutrient solution: 20 bottles of ten years like a dream;

Thank you very much for your support, I will continue to work hard!
