[Sherlock Holmes + Shenxia] Mirror Theory

Moriarty looked calm.

Li Mingye observed him carefully.The young Moriarty seemed to be expressing his emotions, laughing and cursing, but when he actually encountered something beyond his control, he was surprisingly restrained and calm, not even revealing the slightest expression.But in just a blink of an eye, he regained all his emotions and showed an exaggerated expression of surprise.

A dangerous and sober man.All the external performances are his performances, but in reality he is detached from these performances, which shows the complete coldness and emptiness in his heart.

…so why is the Sherlock Holmes and James Moriarty of this world a little mentally ill?I think I'm just a bit masochistic at best, and McVitie is just an ordinary anti-social personality and obsessive-compulsive disorder?Li Mingye complained silently in his heart, feeling unspeakably powerless in this crazy world.

"This really surprised and excited me, my sweetheart." Moriarty didn't mean to look back at Sherlock, but asked Li Mingye enthusiastically, "Did you let me leave the monitoring room on purpose?" ,right?"

Li Mingye pointed to his ears, and said lightly: "The in-ear earphones newly developed by the National Military Factory can allow Sherlock and I to talk smoothly, but since both of us have things to do at hand - we are not The kind of person who likes to chat while doing business." She smiled gently and regretfully, and sighed: "It's a pity that this kind of thing is a little too small, and we have to make an appointment for a minor operation tomorrow, so that this little Take things down."

So they can hear each other's situation all the time.Sherlock knew the attack she encountered, and Li Mingye also guessed all the whole story of the airport bombing (anti-harmony) incident—smart people like them, it is not difficult to guess that the hole card of bombing (anti-harmony) will definitely be In the hands of the last superior.

So Sherlock ordered the "tourist" to be shot dead without hesitation, and Li Mingye also knew that Moriarty must be well aware of the situation at the airport.

She had thought that Moriarty would take care of this matter at the airport, until she saw those "signposts"—deliberately placed, with clear clues, obviously placed deliberately by someone.She knew in an instant that the spider who had been behind the scenes had finally been unable to bear to participate in the game. He wanted to see her, and he was here.

Now that he is here, how can he know everything about the airport?

——Surveillance, cameras, walkie-talkies, mobile phones.

It had to get him out of the monitoring room, get him interested enough in himself to challenge his authority in this treasure hunt, and give Sherlock an opportunity.

So Li Mingye waved goodbye to Moriarty, who was in control of everything in the monitoring room, and the latter finally couldn't help being curious about her, and left the game throne he was occupying.When this man appeared in front of her with ease, what Li Mingye was concerned about was that he didn't have any earphones on his body - he was too confident, and he didn't think a woman could make a comeback.So he comes to the player he intends to get out of the game.

When Li Mingye started to tell the story, Sherlock on the other end of the earphone understood, drove the car like flying, and finally arrived here within the time Li Mingye delayed.

it is more than words.Moriarty may not be a reasoning expert like Sherlock and Li Mingye, but a super criminal who is good at planning and has superb associative ability still connects the cause and effect in the blink of an eye.His eyes were fiery and crazy, and he stared at Li Mingye like two caramel-colored flames, and applauded in admiration and surprise: "Wow...you are really good, my sweetheart. Moran will never forget you , old guy McVitty has you in his heart, and now even I want to fall in love with you."

...what's wrong?

Li Mingye endured it but still couldn't hold it back: "I just think that this sentence means 'I have foiled your plot, and you regard it as my enemy'. As an expert in arresting crimes, I accept your Praise, Mr Moriarty."

Moriarty accepted the anger tolerantly, turned his head to look at Sherlock, turned his head and gave a cute chuckle: "Sherlock Holmes...do you like the performance I gave you this time?" I was quite disappointed when I found out that you chose McVitie's stage."

Sherlock stepped back, hiding his head and torso in the shadows, but kept his gun pointed firmly at Moriarty.He said indifferently: "Performance? It's boring. Apart from the promotion of several forces, I don't see how much your mind can participate in the performance. This case only took me two days, and it's not even as good as that Li (defense) Harmony) multi (anti-harmony) card (anti-harmony) cause barista.”

"You are too harsh, Sherlock, you are cruel - you know, you have my Morgana to help you, my game was originally designed for you alone, but my Morgana Became your cheating tool." Moriarty looked downcast with a slumped face, but he laughed again in an instant, and said softly: "Now the game is over, you tell me, you will look forward to next game?"

"You can play your next game in prison."

"I don't like prison." Moriarty chuckled, "I wouldn't go in and be with Moran either."

"...Magnus." Li Mingye suddenly whispered a name and gritted his teeth.Sherlock's pupils also shrank, and he instantly understood what she meant.

For Moriarty, even if he was arrested today, he would still have the means to get out of the prison intact after being exposed to countless scandalous secrets from Magnus.Even for him, the prison might be a little safer—McVitty is watching outside, but inside the prison is a brand new environment, and with Moran's help...he can live a very, very good life.

"Then what if I kill you now?" Sherlock's voice was flat and indifferent as always, low and slippery like cold water flowing through the strings, which contained profound stability and determination.He didn't care about killing people, he had enough time to pretend to be a scene, and his words were asking Shirley's opinion.

As if a switch had been flipped, Moriarty burst out laughing, almost rocking back and forth, a hint of surprise in his ferocious laughter.After a while, the laughter stopped abruptly. He stared at Sherlock with a soft voice: "What an interesting person... You obviously don't care about killing people, don't you? God, I just realized that you and I are really like me now, You're like a virgin version of me." From what he said, he seemed to be describing the murder as a virgin. "You don't care about killing people, you don't care about ordinary people, you don't care about this world—you know, this world is just our playground, and we can become the king of games in this playground!"

"Why not put on the crown and see? The world is in our hands!"

"You think well." Sherlock snorted softly, still indifferent. "You have no chance to be your Yu-Gi-Oh." He was obviously annoyed and was about to pull the trigger.

Moriarty looked at the gun calmly, with genuine joy on his face, and he smiled all over his face: "You will not kill me, because someone will control you... You have been put in chains, and you are no longer free It's gone." He turned his head to look at Li Mingye, and the smile on his face also changed, like a big boy who pleases the goddess in his heart, with a sincere and awkward smile, with a look of bewilderment, and said in a low voice: "My Sweetheart, please help me... I helped you more than once when I was in Oxford."

Li Mingye's pupils suddenly shrank.The images stored in Oxford in her brain were quickly opened, and a series of images came and went, and finally stayed on one person.

The file on October 2005, 10 was opened, and her eyes stayed on a video - she had just discovered the body abandoned in the Oxford Botanic Garden that day, and made the whole police station go round and round.In the end, she sat in the monitoring room, watching a timid little policeman throw the empty disposable paper cup in front of her into the wastebasket.The jittery little cop has beautiful caramel eyes.

On October 2005, 10, she sneaked into the residence of McVitie's lawyer to find evidence, and then quickly evacuated.At that time, a little security guard who passed by in the corridor saw her, showed a surprised expression, and was called out to her eyes in fear and trepidation. He took her to the security room and sat there for a while. The software given by Locke invaded the system, thus mastering the lawyer's whereabouts.

"You really remember me, my dear Morgana... I'm really flattered." Moriarty showed a shy smile, but his words were extremely bold. "By the time you set foot in this factory, my people in Oxford have already installed something small in the Oxford Police Station and Oxford High Street flats... You can choose to believe it or not, who knows?"

"Maybe this is the power of fate? Morgana baby, you have mixed up McVitty's influence in Oxford, which has given me a chance... You know, I am alone in London. If I don't face You two depend on each other, and I dare not appear in front of you—I am so afraid that my little witch will raise her wand and turn me to stone."

"If I press this little remote in my hand, the (anti-harmony) bomb that was supposed to be at the airport will go off, and my little spiders in Oxford will get a signal... want to try it ?”

Things can only end like this anticlimactic.

Moriarty eventually escaped, Sherlock's reputation on the dark web reached a peak, and McVitie lost his latest partner and a series of channels-the reason is very simple, in fact, the one that was stuffed in his ear was no bigger than a grain of rice. How many in-ear headphones are there for not two, but three.

Li Mingye, Sherlock, Mycroft.

So Mycroft reacted very quickly to Oxford, and at the same time sent people to hunt down and kill Moriarty—this persimmon might not be so easy to pinch next time we meet.

All in all, two hours later the trio received a report: Moriarty was missing, and all the police and people in Oxford who had moved in and out of High Street apartments tonight had been arrested.All of a sudden, Oxford became a vacuum between the two forces, and Mycroft's MI6 strongly intervened in it.

Mycroft's reason is also quite high-sounding.As a world-class university and a famous tourist city, he must ensure the security environment of Oxford.Regardless of whether the cabinet members believe his reason or not, anyway, he has the full support of the Duke of Holderez and his subordinate forces.

In the Sherlock Holmes house, the two consulting detectives who played a big role in this incident silently watched Mycroft pick the biggest peach away as soon as he stretched out his hand, and they were quite calm.

At that time, Li Mingye was sitting beside the fireplace with raging flames, holding a coffee cup comfortably.She was wrapped in a black mink fur, and she was only wearing a thin gray pajamas. She looked like a sloth, and she didn't even bother to lift her eyelids.

The old Sherlock Holmes and his wife are still traveling abroad and will not return home until the 24th.Sherlock and Li Mingye simply moved in three days in advance to do the cleaning and preparation work--but let the two of them clean and prepare?The two of them left the matter to Mycroft the day before they moved in. When they packed their bags and moved in, there was even a Christmas tree in the house!

The layout of Sherlock Holmes's house is quite warm, full of British home style, beautiful lace satin and small cotton flowers, as well as retro furniture and harmonious and beautiful colors.Living in such a comfortable environment, Li Mingye couldn't help but think about the last old man's time in his previous life. After thinking about it, he lost half of his vest anyway, so he didn't bother to pretend, and he simply returned to his old age sloth life every day.

The consulting detective in his old age suffered from rheumatism and mild arthritis, so he would not move away from the fireplace every winter, and it became a habit over time.All she did on the first day she moved in was to move a recliner in front of the fireplace, and then put on comfortable clothes to read or sleep by the warm firelight... while Sherlock jumped up and down to find all the monitors in the house He came out, seeing how leisurely she was, and made her a cup of coffee.

Sherlock's behavior is naturally in the eyes of Li Mingye, and she also knows that this young man definitely wants to talk to her, and the reason for putting away the camera is nothing more than to show that this is a private conversation, Mycroft Tate would never know.So when Sherlock tidied up, changed into his nightgown after taking a shower, and sat across from her, she spoke first, very understandingly: "What do you want to ask me?"

Sherlock looked hesitant.He lowered his eyes halfway, and his eyes fell on the coffee cup in Li Mingye's hand, but his eyes were a little loose, obviously thinking.After a while, he opened his mouth: "There is a legend in China about Tibetan (anti-harmony) transmission (anti-harmony) Buddhism, which says that people can awaken past life memories?"

... What is this thing? How do I know what reincarnation is? If it is true according to Buddhism, you are still my sambhogakaya.Li Mingye stopped his thoughts, only to realize that this is such a good step inlaid with gold and jade.She said noncommittally: "There is such a saying."

Sherlock looked at her silently.

"Well, my friend... I do remember a lot of things." Li Mingye paused and considered for a moment, "I was born in 1854. I was born in a country gentry family and was educated at home. She was the younger sister of a painter in the Napoleonic era, and I was a detective when I grew up, arresting many criminals in my life, and after I retired, I went to the countryside to study beekeeping.”

Vague and short, vague, withholding but not lying.Sherlock listened quietly, without comment.

"McVitty was the most dangerous criminal I've tracked down in my life. He's the Napoleon of crime. He's famous among thieves... Well, he's unknown, but he's the brains of the largest criminal gang in Europe at the time. I I don’t know why he awakened his past life memory like me, but he and I are destined enemies. I cooperated with Scotland Yard at the time and wiped out the leader of the McVitty gang, but he ran away... an instant A man who had nothing, blamed me for his failure, lost his ambition and grace, and came to die with me. It's just a pity that he was old at the time, so he lost, and I survived. "Li Mingye is not very good at telling stories, she was thinking about the content of "Detective Sherlock Holmes" in her memory, trying to polish it.

Otherwise what could she say?Could it be that the old guy chased her to Reichenbach and then got into a fight and finally lost his footing and fell off the cliff?There's nothing to say about this, it's essentially a man in his prime beating up an old man.

Then Li Mingye picked out a few cases he had handled and spoke out. Of course, all the staff used aliases.Sherlock listened quietly, and only occasionally suggested some clues in the case, which made her feel quite strange—it was quite strange, Sherlock Holmes told another Sherlock Holmes about "The Case of Sherlock Holmes" The story of "Collection"...and this tongue twister-like thing actually happened like this.

"It's an unbelievable legend." Sherlock commented on her explanation, and said calmly: "But the logic is reasonable, and the framework of the matter is in line with the social situation at that time. At the same time, it can also explain your understanding of the history and musicology of the Victorian era. , Sociological understanding. I agree with your explanation."

Li Mingye lit a cigarette and did not speak.

People are like this, once there is a comfortable environment, they will immediately become unwilling to change.

From the first time she fell off the horse in the taxi on a snowy night until now, Li Mingye has opened up too much information to Sherlock, and sometimes she can't help but appreciate Sherlock's desire to know the truth and puzzles. It's like a kind elder hid delicious candy, and then secretly encouraged his beloved junior to find it by himself.And Sherlock's peaceful attitude towards this kind of thing also affected her, making her more tolerant of Sherlock's exploration.

Even in the case of the Little Lord's disappearance, Sherlock's ignorance of her flaws greatly dispelled her idea of ​​leaving.It's just that her concern was chaotic before. She kept thinking about how to explain her own problems, but she didn't expect that she was the person who wanted the truth the most, but she took the initiative to hand over a better step.

He is keeping her.Li Mingye realized this, and couldn't help looking at Sherlock.

While the cigarette was curling up, the young consulting detective had a peaceful expression, but the muscles at the corners of his mouth were tense, and he kept his eyelids half-closed and refused to look at her. The muscles on the side of his neck were slightly stiff, and the tip of his nose twitched from time to time.

He was nervous... He was afraid that she would leave.

But neither of them is someone who will turn a blind eye to the problem, so he is afraid that she will really leave, so before revealing this secret, he reminds her carefully - if you don't want to tell the truth, you can continue to perfunctory, it doesn't matter, he can accept.

All the time I saw this young man's flamboyant, clean and pure side. It was the first time that Li Mingye noticed that he was regarded as a student or a friend of the younger generation by him, so cautious and even tolerant with.

Li Mingye knows Holmes' desire to explore the unknown better than anyone else.

But it is such a person who has always expressed all his emotions straightforwardly - he tolerated all violations, held back his curiosity, and did not show off his observation skills in front of her...

He was afraid that she would choose to leave because she revealed the secret.

If Li Mingye was really a woman in her heart, she would have noticed what a bad omen this tolerance was.With her intelligence, she will guess what tricks this man is playing - in this world, only I understand your origin, know your specialness, and tolerate everything about you.Only I know the real you, so you can only stay by my side.Then she would become vigilant and re-examine this man seriously and carefully, and then it would not be difficult for her to see what his usual possessive gaze meant.

But unfortunately she is not.So she just smiled at him gently, and solemnly promised: "I will not leave, my friend. And I swear by the name of the most noble lady in the empire, what I say is true... I Ever wondered, what is the reason for my awakening in this world? Then I saw you. Then I thought, this country may have found that it needs my help, so I am willing to contribute a successor to it."

"So I won't leave you, I will fight by your side as before, dear Sherlock."

"...Is this a promise?" After a while, Sherlock asked calmly.

"Yes, my friend, I will be your loyal companion. Together we will face all things, including the heinous criminals, the aggressive McVitty and Moriarty, and Great Britain is the same after hundreds of years The fickle weather, until our bodies are reduced to dust, and our thoughts and contributions are engraved on the tombstones of others, and passed down for decades and hundreds of years."
