Melina woke up in the early hours of the morning, and it was almost midnight after the doctor dealt with her vomiting. Lestrade went home overnight because he had to deal with the Whitechapel case the next day. The doctor fell asleep in the guest room on Baker Street because he had to continue to check on Melina's condition.

So much so that Mrs. Hudson, who came back from the country the next morning, found a middle-aged man reading a newspaper in the restaurant at home. Melina and Vetter were all gone. If it wasn’t for the familiar smell of the kitchen, Hudson The wife thought she had gone to the wrong door!

"My lady, why did you get up so early to make breakfast today? Where's that girl Melina?" Mrs. Hudson put down the messy things in her hands, walked into Athena's side and looked at the dining table The doctor on the bed asked, "Who is that gentleman? Why did he sit in my house so early in the morning?"

Athena stirred the gruel made from the rice in the pot, and said lightly, "It's Mike's personal doctor."

"Private doctor? What? Are you sick?" Mrs. Hudson asked with concern before Athena finished speaking. Athena quickly closed the lid and denied it.

"No! It's Melina. She was sick and passed out after drinking too much caffeine-containing soothing syrup, but we found out in time, and her life is not in danger now. I have been tossing all night last night , thinking that I have to cook something for myself and them, and go to sleep for a while after eating, otherwise I really can't bear it."

In the past, she was always used to staying up all night dancing disco, and ended up with a sudden death. Now she has learned her lesson and thinks about taking good care of herself every day!The best thing for a Victorian with no Internet access and no mobile phones is to get her to bed early and wake up early.I am used to going to bed early and getting up early, but now I really can't stay up late.

What would have happened in the past, but now... Athena's face is completely exhausted.

After that, Athena took out the leftover chicken from the side.

She washed her tender white hands, and followed the texture of the chicken to carefully tear the old and old chicken into shreds.

Mrs. Hudson on the side looked at the movements of Athena's hands and was only slightly stunned. She had long been familiar with Athena's strange cooking skills, frying for a while, frying for a while, this young man Miss always has all kinds of wonderful cooking methods, even if it is a way and side dish that has never been seen, but Athena's cooking skills have won the whole baker since the first dish of pork belly chicken and steamed fish Trust Street 221B.

"Coffee addicted?" Mrs. Hudson exclaimed, "I also drank the soothing syrup at home because of a cough a few days ago, and it seems that nothing happened...but...couldn't be..."

As she spoke, the expression on Mrs. Hudson's face quickly changed from doubt to fear. Naturally, all she could do was to seek help from the ready-made doctor in front of her.

The glow and anticipation in Mrs. Hudson's eyes.It was like burning two holes through the newspaper in the doctor's hands, and the doctor didn't even have to look up to know she was looking at him.

The doctor sighed slightly, put down the newspaper in his hand and said helplessly, "Don't tell me that you also drank a box of cough syrup?"

"A box? Drink a box of cough syrup? Melina? Is this kid crazy? How can these cough syrups be drunk like that? How can drinking like that not be addictive!" Mrs. Hudson walked to the far left of the kitchen Next to the cupboard, she opened the cupboard and took out a brown bottle that was exactly the same as Melina's and handed it over.

But unlike Melina, compared to Melina drinking a whole box of more than a dozen bottles, the bottle in Mrs. Hudson's hand is equivalent to not being opened at all.

The doctor frowned and slowly opened the bottle and asked, "Have you drank?"

"Drink it! Use a spoon to take out a spoonful of water and drink it!" Speaking of this, Mrs. Hudson pulled out her chair and sat opposite the doctor. She looked at the doctor and said, "My husband told me Wan told me that these cough syrups and soothing syrups on the market are all fortified, even if it is this kind, I have to reduce the amount again and again. If I don’t have a bad cough, I don’t want to buy it!”

After Mrs. Hudson finished speaking, Athena, who put the shredded chicken into the pot, turned around and walked over with the spoon in her hand and asked, "Mrs. Hudson, is your husband also a doctor? How does he know that there is something in the syrup on the market?" Added ingredients?"

"of course not!"

"of course not!"

The doctor and Mrs. Hudson answered almost in unison, Mrs. Hudson has never seen this doctor, how does this doctor know that her husband is not a doctor, and is so sure?She looked at him suspiciously and asked, "How do you know? Do you know Kevin?"

The doctor sighed helplessly, "Of course I don't know! But I know that cough syrup mixed with water will not have any effect. In fact, after drinking cough syrup, which is a sugar water with high concentration of sugar, it is to promote saliva and blood circulation. The respiratory tract secretes mucus, which slows a severe cough. Cough syrup diluted with water is the same as plain water with sugar and has no effect at all.

If your husband is a doctor, how could he not even tell you such basic common sense?Unless he did it on purpose, it just means he's not a doctor. "

Mrs. Hudson listened to the doctor's explanation, but frowned and refused to believe it. Instead, she retorted: "But I feel much better after drinking it! How could it have no effect at all?"

The doctor snorted softly, held up the newspaper again and said, "Probably it's just a psychological effect. If making sugar water can cure the disease, those syrup manufacturers outside would have closed down long ago!"

Athena, who was standing by the side, had gotten used to the doctor's straightforward temper after spending the whole night with the doctor, but Mrs. Hudson obviously didn't like it. sentence.

She was about to go up and grab the doctor's newspaper, and argue with him. Seeing this, Athena pulled Mrs. Hudson over and asked, "Hey, hey... Mrs. Hudson, since your husband is not a doctor, why is it that you don't know why?" Do you know there's something added to the cough syrup?"

"My husband Kevin originally opened a factory to produce syrup! Since last year, the business has become more and more difficult. The syrup on the market is said to have developed a new product. It is because he refuses to be like those unscrupulous black-hearted businessmen outside. The same thing is added to cough syrup, those things are said to make people addicted after drinking, so the business is good because of the repeated purchases!

Kevin doesn't want to do those bad things to harm others, but everyone else does it, so how can he compare to other factories?So the factory couldn't survive, and soon closed down, owed a lot of money, and hid in the countryside. I went to the countryside last night to see him.To be honest, if it weren't for the fact that Sherlock rented my house, he and Watson went to Mycroft to help arrange relations, those people would have come to ask for debts! "

Speaking of which, Mrs. Hudson poured out all the bitterness in her stomach. Finally, someone took the initiative to ask her that she wanted to vent her complaints after holding it in for so long.

"As soon as the factory closed down, no one wanted to use those cough syrups to offset the debt, saying that no one drank it! Look how many boxes are still piled up in my warehouse!"

The doctor disdainfully said: "Your husband is not much better! Although there is no Datura flower in this bottle of cough syrup, there is quite a lot of caffeine! Otherwise, why would he tell you to use it to make medicine?" Drink with soaked water?

These harmful things should have been thrown away a long time ago, if not, I wouldn't let... that maid with dirty hands and feet be tied up in a cocoon.Did you know she secretly drank your case of cough syrup?I drank coffee|I almost died at your home due to poisoning! "

"Hey! Why do you speak so badly?" Mrs. Hudson heard him scolding, and she was so angry that she directly refuted it back. "Melina is a good girl, even if she drank a box of syrup, it doesn't mean she has dirty hands and feet! If my husband didn't have a conscience, how could we be in debt? You don't even know anything about other people, so you just slander The child’s innocence still accuses us because of this, you are really a good doctor!”

"Hmph~ Whatever you say, I'm not the one to save my life in the end!" The doctor stood up in disdain, and walked to Athena's side just smelling the fragrance in the pot.After all, I haven't eaten anything since last night, so I'm really hungry.

Who knew that Mrs. Hudson stood in front of Melina, even blocking the way for the doctor to find out, and said unceremoniously: "What are you looking at? This is for us to eat. Food for patients, how can such a brilliant doctor like you still eat fireworks? Gods and angels don’t need to eat!”

The doctor was choked up by Mrs. Hudson directly, but he still maintained his etiquette and complained: "It's not a Buckingham Palace banquet, as if I care too much! Heh~" and sat down obediently go back.

Athena shook her head helplessly, she just put her arms around Mrs. Hudson and said: "Okay! You and the doctor are angry and you have to think about Melina's illness and rely on him to treat it! Give him some face, You also know that most of Mike's friends are dumb.

so!Can you go and see Melina first?Vettel went out to send a telegram to Mike, and I was too busy cooking to take care of her.

Don't be angry, I'll bring you some delicious food later, and leave all the delicious food to you and Melina.okay? "

Athena coaxed Mrs. Hudson downstairs, and Mrs. Hudson said indignantly: "When Vetter comes back, I will also send a telegram to Watson to ask him to come back. John, the little sweetheart, is better than upstairs." That nuisance is ten thousand times more considerate, and if John is not gone, why don't you ask him to come to the doctor!

If the disease is not optimistic, the person will be mad at first! "

Mrs. Hudson was muttering non-stop, and she didn't stop until she opened the door and saw the weak Melina. She walked lightly to the side of the bed for fear of waking up the poor child.

Athena closed the door and was about to go upstairs when there was a rapid knock on the front door. She walked quickly to the door and opened it, thinking it was Vettel, but she didn't know it was Alek.

Alek was wearing a pair of boots that were completely muddy, with one hand on the door frame and the other on his knees, breathing quickly as if he had just finished a marathon.

"Alek, why are you here? Lestrade went back in the middle of the night! Why didn't you see him in Scotland Yard today?"

Almost as soon as Alek heard the word midnight, he was stunned. He blinked his eyes and asked in doubt: "Our detective stayed with you until midnight...and then came home?"

"Why don't you know?" Athena tilted her head, and it seemed that he didn't come here because she couldn't find Lestrade, so she just explained: "Yesterday, the maid at home fell ill, and Mrs. Hudson was not at home. ..."

Just as Athena finished telling Mrs. Hudson that Mrs. Hudson was not at home, Mrs. Hudson opened the door and walked out. Alek was even more puzzled when she saw this.

But in an instant, his face changed into a look, don't say it!I understand!Expressions that don't need to be explained!

This night, handsome men and beautiful women, whores, even use Mrs. Hudson to deceive themselves. Is it because of adultery?

But Alek didn't take this into consideration, he couldn't tolerate Athena's explanation, so he said again: "An accident happened again in the Whitechapel. In the middle of the night last night, it was still a female corpse belonging to a prostitute."

Athena only heard the words of Whitechapel, and her heart suddenly sank. That damned Jack committed another crime so quickly.It was still in the same area as the last crime. After what happened last time, after Scotland Yard had stepped up inspections in the Whitechapel area, he dared to come back here to commit crimes again.

The degree of his arrogance is really evident.

She asked almost subconsciously: "Where is the person? Have you caught it? Has the murderer Jack been caught?"

Alek shook his head lightly. Before he could say anything, Athena muttered to herself: "It rained so heavily last night, and all traces were washed away. Last time there were some traces that were found. There is no clue about him, let alone this time!"

Unexpectedly, Alek shook his head excitedly: "No, Miss Holmes! We have more favorable and direct clues this time. We have witnesses, and we found witnesses at the scene of the crime last night! Our detective I have brought the witness to you, I hope you can draw a portrait based on the witness's description for the police to search for!"

"Have we found any witnesses?"

"Yes, that's right, we found a witness!"
