Sherlock, Watson, Iori, plus Jimmy and Allen, a group of five came to Jimmy's house in a taxi.

It was a house in the suburbs, with three floors and ancient decoration, which looked very historical.It has a large yard with a tall fruit tree, under the tree there are swings for children, sand piles, slides, runners, and a kennel for large dogs with a beautiful husky inside.The big dog was lying there lazily without a leash.

"It reminds me of the big dog. You know," Watson said to Sherlock.

At this time, Alan smiled and said, "Are you talking about the 'Hound of the Baskervilles' written in your blog? Oh, our Harlan is much cuter, isn't he? Harlan!"

With Allen's order, the husky stood up abruptly from the nest, barked and rushed towards the group of people.

Allen opened his hand to meet the big dog, and Jimmy touched it, and the two chatted and laughed.On the other side, Iori looked at the large dog and couldn't help but think of Inuyasha.I don't know what happened to Kikyo's body after I left, did she turn into a ceramic dead body and turn into ashes, or... Kagome's soul in the anime did not go back?Anyway, no matter what, she has no way to know now, which is really a pity. ╮╭

Sherlock looked at the dog and said to Watson, "I hate this big furry animal."

"You also hate cats, rabbits, and goldfish." Watson said unbearably, "I think there is no animal you like."

"Yes, they are too much trouble to bear." Sherlock took it for granted.Then he looked at Watson, and suddenly said, "Except for you."

"Hey, what do you mean?" Watson looked at him disapprovingly.

Sherlock said: "I'm complimenting you. Although you are very loud, you know when to be quiet-of course, we have to ignore special times, such as now, you are very loud."

"Sometimes I can't stand you—I think I can understand Mycroft."

"You know him? Are you sure? His thinking has never been normal. I don't think you can understand what he thinks all your life."

"No, I think I understand deeply."

"... John, sometimes I really... well, think you don't know yourself."

"Sherlock!"

"Aha... still full of love." Yagami muttered to himself.And at this moment, she suddenly saw a woman in the window on the second floor. The woman stared at Jimmy and Allen expressionlessly. When she realized that Yagami saw her, she suddenly smiled at Yagami, and then stretched out her hand to open the window. , stuck her head out to say hello to them: "Hi" Then she shouted to Jimmy and Alan: "Jimmy, Alan, why didn't you tell me sooner when you brought your friends back? I should have prepared in advance!"

Jimmy looked up and said to the woman, "Beyoncé, Sorry, but there's a reason for this. We'll go in right away, and I'll explain it to you later."

"Okay. But don't think that this matter will pass so easily." Beyoncé said coquettishly.

Jimmy smiled dotingly, "Yes, I know, okay."

Then Beyoncé came down to open the door for them and welcomed them into the house. Her words and deeds were very decent, and she was gentle and amiable to Allen, as if she didn't notice that her husband was having sex with Allen at all. together.

Iori directly positioned this woman as a false white lotus.Premium black.

Beyoncé handed out guest slippers to several people, and warmly invited them into the house. After they changed into the slippers, they walked into the house through the hallway with Jimmy and the others.

The house of the Borg family is the same as what you see outside. It belongs to the kind of ancient decoration. As soon as you enter, you have the feeling of walking into an old castle. Although the house is full of modern technology products, the decoration style, the wallpaper on the wall, and the wall lamp , all kinds of oil paintings hanging here give people the illusion of a mix of ancient and modern.

Beyonce led them into the living room and then into the kitchen.

Sherlock and others who stayed in the living room naturally noticed a huge oil painting hanging on the wall of the living room. Several people walked over to watch curiously: in the painting was an old man with white hair who looked about 50 years old. He was wearing the nineteenth-century gentleman's clothes, holding a scepter in his hand, and sitting on a chair that looked luxurious. Angry and majestic, his temperament is extraordinary.

Watson thoughtfully, turned to look at Jimmy and asked, "This oil painting is...?"

"He is my grandfather, Daniel." Jimmy also stood in front of the oil painting, but looked at the painting and frowned.

Sherlock looked at the old man carefully, "Is this what he looked like when he was young?"

"No." Allen looked at the portrait and replied for Jimmy: "This is Daniel...Daniel looked like before he was about to die. After Daniel knew that he was about to die, he asked me to draw a picture for him. He wanted his own portrait To be able to stand for him and accompany Angelina who is heartbroken because of losing him——Angelina and Daniel have a very deep relationship. Because of Daniel's illness, Angelina was very sad. During the period when Daniel was about to die, she even suffered from depression. Daniel was really worried, so he asked me to draw this portrait of him and hang it at home so that Angelina would have something to think about."

"You drew this?" Watson looked at Alan in surprise.He didn't expect such a young man to draw so well.

Allen looked to be in his twenties.

Before Allen could answer, Sherlock said, "It was drawn by him. He has calluses on his hands, and the location is very special. You can tell that it was left by a painting."

Watson nodded in confusion.

Beyoncé came out of the kitchen shortly after, bringing coffee and pastries, and a large fruit platter.And then, Jimmy found an excuse to drag her into the kitchen again—probably because Jimmy wanted to explain to her why Sherlock and the others came, or maybe it was because of other reasons, anyway, the two of them stayed in the kitchen for a long time, Allen also became a little irritable from his calmness at the beginning, and finally apologized to Sherlock and others, and then walked into the kitchen.

Watson whispered to Sherlock: "It seems that they have a good relationship." He was referring to Beyoncé and Jimmy.

"You really think so?" Sherlock asked in disapproval.

When Watson heard his tone, he knew that he had guessed wrong. He nodded and asked, "Well, what's the problem with her?"

Sherlock talked eloquently: "The earrings on the ears and the necklace on the neck. The two accessories can be seen at a glance. They are styles that were popular many years ago-the initial judgment is about four or five years ago. They are old, but However, it is very clean, which means that the owner cherishes these two things; her clothes and collocation are very particular, and the pair of shoes on her feet are also branded products. She is a meticulous and rigorous person who pursues perfection; while the ring on her hand, the wedding ring, looks neat and clean, but compared to the other two meticulous care, it is obvious that this ring has been treated carelessly. What does this mean? It means that she is not as satisfied with her marriage as it appears on the surface, and her dissatisfaction is naturally because she found out that her husband cheated, or with his uncle."

"She obviously hates Allen, but she is very natural and enthusiastic, showing that she has a deep city and knows how to hide her conspiracy. Sometimes when she smiles at these two people, she will show a kind of... um , a smug expression, which means that she must be planning something to get revenge on Jimmy who cheated and Alan who is a third party, which makes her feel very happy and has a sense of superiority, she feels that these two people are under the control of her hands." Sherlock curled his lips when he said this, "A self-righteous woman. But she is indeed a little smart, but unfortunately she is not smarter than me."

"Oh, yes." Watson gave a perfunctory compliment, and then asked Yagami: "There really isn't, uh, that kind of thing here? It's that kind of 'dirty' thing." He tried to signal to Yagami what he said with his eyes. what is it.

Although Iori didn't understand what his eyes meant, but Iori understood what he said.

"No, it's very clean here." Yagami replied bluntly, and after seeing the kitchen door opened from the corner of his eye, he quickly gave the two people a look to signal that someone had come out.

Sherlock and Watson stopped their conversation immediately.

Next Jimmy invites them to dinner.It turns out that the time has slipped to the time for dinner without knowing it.

During dinner, all members of Jimmy's family were seated. They sat around a long table in the dining room. Sherlock and others sat opposite Jimmy and them, and Jimmy's grandmother Angelina sat in front of them on the right. Next to Angelina was an empty seat with tableware. Sherlock and others who knew the situation naturally knew that it was reserved for Jimmy's grandfather Daniel.

Seeing Angelina on the upper right with a smile on her face filling Daniel's bowl, and other people pretending to talk to the non-existent grandfather Daniel, the atmosphere at the whole table seemed inexplicably weird.Watson felt quite uncomfortable, as if he had stepped into a horror movie, and he felt a creepy sense of unease.Fortunately, he knew that the Iori sitting next to him was a professional ghost catcher, and Iori also said just now that there is no such thing in the country, which made him feel a little more at ease.

But Sherlock and Yagami looked calm and relaxed, not at all uncomfortable.

After dinner, Angelina returned to her room, and the rest of the Borg family sat on the sofa in the living room, with the three of Sherlock sitting opposite them.

After Angelina returned to the house, Jimmy's father, Bobby, urgently said to Sherlock: "Do you think this is really artificial? But we really saw Daniel's..." Since he could ask this question, it is obvious that he He knew the truth, knew that Jimmy and Alan were looking for Sherlock, and also knew why Sherlock and the others came.

Sherlock interrupted him and said, "I'm sure. If you don't believe me, you ask her, she is professional." He looked at Yagami, "If it wasn't because she has some professional knowledge—" He stopped talking here.

"If I wasn't a ghost catcher, you wouldn't let me come. I understand. You don't have to repeat it." Yagami took a sip of coffee calmly.

Sherlock said as a matter of course: "It's good that you know."

At this time, Bobby excitedly asked Iori: "What do you say you are? Are you a psychic? Can you see ghosts... no, can you expel ghosts?! Can you really?!" He There was a hint of surprise in his eyes.

Yagami looked up at him, then glanced at the other members of the Borg family, and found that, except for Beyoncé, they all looked at her with life-saving eyes.Thoughtful, she nodded calmly on the surface and said, "I can."

"Great!" Jimmy's mother Lisa hugged Bobby in tears of joy.

At this time, Iori said calmly: "It's useless to be good, because there are no ghosts here."

"What?!" Bobby exclaimed in surprise.The Borg family also looked at Yagami in surprise, and Lisa said sharply: "How could it not?! We saw Daniel, we all saw it! It must be you, you are a fake-ah!!! "

Before Lisa finished speaking, Yagami took out the demon sword from his chest to find its sheath, and put it around her neck.Lisa screamed in fright, and all the other Borg family members looked at Yagami in fear.

Watson grabbed Yagami's hand and said, "Don't get excited!"

"I'm not excited." Yagami gave him a helpless look, "I'm not planning to hurt anyone at all, John? You can tell by looking at Sherlock, so he didn't move." She pointed at Sherlock with her chin, Then he suddenly looked at Watson and said, "But John, do you really think that I am the kind of person who hurts people when I disagree with you? Oh, yes, your actions just now show that you think so. This really makes me so sad, you actually look at me like that." Yagami pretended to be sad and looked at Watson with Sam's signature dog eyes.

"Uh, no, Sorry, Tina." Watson withdrew his hand in embarrassment.

Yagami glanced at him, then retracted the knife, and slashed at the coffee cup on the table - with a snap, the coffee cup was chopped off in half.Then Iori inserted the demon knife back into his chest, and said to the Borg family with a smile, "Now do you think I'm still a fake?"

Beyoncé's pupils shrank, and she held her hands together nervously.And this scene was not missed by Sherlock.

"You, you, you..." Lisa pointed at Iori and was speechless.

Yagami put away his smiling face and said solemnly: "Don't worry, I'm not a liar, I'm a professional witch. There are really no ghosts in your house, and this thing is really done on purpose. As for why you see ghosts?" ...This will be resolved by Sherlock." Yagami looked at Sherlock.

Sherlock stood up from the sofa, shook his windbreaker in the same signature action, looked at everyone and said, "Let's go."

After he finished speaking, he turned and left.

Everyone followed behind him, and Watson asked anxiously, "Hey, Sherlock, where are you going?"

"Go and solve the case." Sherlock said it as a matter of course.
