October London The Autumn In London
Chapter 13
[-]. Cold War
"Sherlock, I haven't seen Lily for two days. Talk to her." Mrs. Hudson persuaded Sherlock and John while serving breakfast.
"We're fine, she's just going back to the palace for two days. I won't do such things as quarreling and venting excess emotions." Sherlock said, picking up the knife and fork to prepare for breakfast.
"Sherlock, Liliana is your girlfriend! You shouldn't have told her about this. She cleaned up all the cosmetics in the room!" John said to Sherlock, "Don't tell me she only has one set of cosmetics .”
Sherlock was stunned for two seconds, then got up and walked to Liliana's room.
The cosmetics on the table are gone, the oil paintings on the wall are gone.All that's left is a photo of Sherlock and Liliana in China.Under Liliana's guidance, Sherlock finally made a heart shape.
Sherlock picked up the photo carefully, looked at it for a long time before putting it back on the table.
"John, I... have something to ask you."
Elsewhere, Liliana sulks in her room in the palace.
"Your Highness, the Queen is here." The maid said respectfully to Liliana.
"Lily, are you still arguing with that Mr. Holmes?" The queen sat next to Liliana.
"No, oops, I don't want to talk about him." Liliana seemed to be having a fight with Sherlock.
The queen patted the back of Liliana's hand lovingly: "Why don't we just be angry with him. Tomorrow German Chancellor Merkel and her son will visit the UK. Why don't you go out with his son? You are about the same age, so there should be some common topic."
"But... I don't want to go." Liliana refused without thinking.
"Just take it easy and listen to grandma. That's it!" The Queen made the decision directly for Liliana.
"That Mr. Holmes doesn't understand love at all.I can't let Liliana get hurt. ’ the queen thought so.
The next morning, Liliana stood in front of Luke Merkel in a crisp suit in a plain blouse and jeans.
"I just wanted to see if you still wanted to go out with me. 』Liliana thought, pretending to walk forward gracefully.
"I've heard that Princess Liliana is very beautiful, and now it seems that even ordinary jeans can make her shine." Luke praised, with a sincere expression on his face, "May I have the honor to invite you to go with me?" Going around Hyde Park?"
When Liliana heard the praise, she almost sprained her feet, but she still said very politely: "Of course."
There are not many opportunities to see Her Royal Highness in person. After knowing that Her Royal Highness will be in Hyde Park, Liliana's fans will be surrounded by the park.Moreover, a few days ago, Liliana was also named "the most friendly princess" in history, which was widely praised.
Besides, to be honest, Luke is really handsome.
"Your Highness, can you sign for me?" "Luke, can you take a photo with me?" Fans kept screaming from the sidelines.
The media also came a lot and took photos of Liliana and Luke.
"Why don't you sit by the lake?" Luke suggested.
Liliana took the bread crumbs from the assistant who was accompanying her and threw them into the lake.
The swan raised by Her Majesty the Queen swam over.
"His Royal Highness seems to like these swans?" Luke said casually.
"I raised this with my grandmother when I was a child." Liliana reached out and touched the swan's head.Swan is not shy at all, and it can be seen that she has a good relationship with Liliana.
Luke brought an exquisite box from the assistant: "By the way, I have a gift for you."
Take the box.Liliana carefully opened it: "Oh, so beautiful!"
Luke sent a snow crystal ball with Neuschwanstein Castle inside.Very nice and delicate.
Liliana was playing with it when a familiar voice came from behind: "Liliana doesn't like such messy things, she likes the retro British style."
Liliana and Luke looked back and saw Sherlock standing in his iconic trench coat.It's really a twitching expression.
"No, I like this crystal ball." Liliana stuffed the crystal ball into her bosom.
"No, you don't like it."
"I just like it, and you don't know me, Sherlock." Liliana suddenly exploded.
"Liliana Westminster, 170 cm tall and 48.5 kg in weight. The person I like most is Queen Elizabeth, and the person I hate the most should be me. My favorite book is "Evil in the Sun" and I like to drink Clear chicken soup. You like Tiffany blue, you like royal bears. I can accurately calculate your menstrual cycle, and I know you better than yourself."
☆、Chapter 14
[-]. Christmas
"It seems that Her Royal Highness Princess Liliana is with the high-functioning anti-social Sherlock. The legend should be true." Luke said, "The quarrel was quite serious?"
"You German boy, don't interrupt!" Sherlock yelled.
Liliana saw that Sherlock was in a hurry, and quickly pulled Sherlock back: "Okay, okay, I forgive you. Luke is a guest, so he can't be so rude."
"It's for my face, let's make up now?" Luke said to Liliana and Sherlock.
"Okay. Sherlock, you are not allowed to mention this matter again, or I will be angry." Liliana straightened the scarf for Sherlock.
Sherlock pushed Liliana into his arms: "I'll buy you the necklace you've seen three times, go to Chinatown to buy your favorite chicken soup on a snowy day, and let McCaughey consign your favorite snacks from China , accompany you to Russia in summer, and take you to Egypt in winter. Forgive me?"
ha?How did Sherlock come up with such a nasty words?
"Great, you finally reconciled!" At this moment, John came from nowhere.
Sherlock let go of Liliana and nodded to John: "What you taught me is really useful."
"Okay, you two, let's be in collusion!" Liliana pretended to be angry.
John patted Liliana on the shoulder: "Just see you two get back together."
Sherlock took the initiative to shake hands with Luke: "Thank you for bringing Liliana a gift, she likes it very much."
"It's really a husband's tone." Luke teased, "But you can reconcile, I have a credit, right? Don't forget to invite me when you get married."
"Sure." Sherlock acted like the master of a family.
"Sherlock, it's Christmas time." Although Liliana and Sherlock have reconciled, Liliana still lives in the palace because she is the national image ambassador of the United Kingdom and in order to facilitate participation in various promotional activities.But Sherlock calls Liliana every day, which is really rare for a person who doesn't call as long as he can text.
"Huh?" Sherlock was going to the scene of the crime with John.
"Spent Christmas together?" Liliana twisted her hair with her hands.
Sherlock thought for a moment and said, "Mrs. Hudson invited John's girlfriend, who is called Annie, and Gray to dinner on Christmas Eve. Would you like to come?"
"Well, what's the case this time?" Liliana guessed from Sherlock's speaking speed that he was rushing to the scene.
"The Missing Blonde, the name on John's blog," Sherlock groans. "That's cheesy."
Liliana smiled: "Then you guys are busy. I'll hang up first."
"Liliana?" Seeing Sherlock hang up the phone with a smile, John didn't need to guess that it was Liliana, "You guys are calling again."
"You can call your Janet too." Sherlock put the phone back in his pocket.
John said solemnly, "It's Jenny, not Janet!"
On Christmas Eve, Liliana came to 221b Baker Street with presents.
"Oh, Lily. You are finally here. It's been a long time. I miss you so much!" Mrs. Hudson gave her a big hug.
"I miss you too, Mrs. Hudson. This is the West Lake Longjing tea leaves that I entrusted someone to bring from China. Merry Christmas!" Liliana took out a beautifully packaged gift.
"I also prepared a gift for you, and it's upstairs. Go up and have a look." Mrs. Hudson went upstairs with Liliana.
"Liliana! You are finally here, Sherlock has looked at his watch no less than ten times." John said.
"Only eight times, John, you are too careless to observe." Sherlock stepped forward and hugged Liliana tightly.
"Sherlock, I can't breathe."
Mrs. Hudson gave a set of teapots, John a silk scarf, and newly acquainted Sheriff Lestrade a baseball cap.
"This is for John, a new jacket. Inspector Lestrade's Japanese peace guard." Liliana took out the presents one by one.
Finally, she took out a dark blue rectangular box: "This is for Sherlock."
Sherlock took it and shook it first.There was only a slight grinding sound from the box.
Opening the box, there was a dark blue scarf lying quietly inside. "I wove this myself. If it's not good, you have to accept it."
"It's beautiful." Sherlock immediately put the scarf around his neck, "how is it?"
"Are you asking me?" John asked in surprise, "It's nice, but you never do."
"It's from my girlfriend." Sherlock said matter-of-factly.
☆、Chapter 15
[-]. Marriage Proposal
"My Christmas present, you must accept it too." Sherlock clenched and loosened his hands, looking a little nervous.
Liliana smiled: "Yes."
Sherlock took out a small box wrapped in flannel from his pocket.He opened it slowly.
Inside is a heart-shaped sapphire with many broken diamonds embellished next to it. It is a Tiffany diamond ring, which is very delicate.
Sherlock knelt on the ground, holding the diamond ring in one hand, and took Liliana's hand with the other: "Miss Liliana, are you willing to marry me? Although you may be angry because I am obsessed with the case."
Liliana was agitated for a while, feeling her nose was sore, tears flowed down.
"Lily, promise Sherlock quickly!" Mrs. Hudson pushed Liliana slightly towards Sherlock.
"I do!" Liliana finally nodded.
Sherlock carefully put the ring on Liliana's left middle finger.Then he reverently kissed the back of Liliana's hand.
In the evening, Sherlock accompanied Liliana back to the palace.
"Sherlock, what kind of wedding dress do you want to wear?" "Does the cake have four or five layers?" "How about going to China for honeymoon? I want to go to Italy too."
"Woo..." Sherlock suddenly lowered his head and kissed Liliana.
Queen Elizabeth soon knew about Sherlock's proposal to Liliana.On Christmas Day, the entire royal family held an important meeting.
"Lily, have you really thought about it?" Princess Kate asked Liliana solemnly.
Prince William added: "Once it is announced that you are engaged, it is irreversible."
"I've made up my mind. I want to be with Sherlock." Liliana nodded.
Queen Elizabeth whispered a few words to the waiter and said to the three of them: "Since Liliana has made a decision, we should respect her. I called McCauf to discuss the wedding date and some specific details."
"Liliana, really, you're going to get married in a blink of an eye." Princess Kate walked over and hugged Liliana.
Liliana had a very good relationship with her brother Prince William since she was a child, except for the two who had disputes over who would inherit the ruling power, but most of the time they often stuck together.
For the sister-in-law of Princess Kate, Liliana also likes it very much.They will go shopping and watch movies together when they have nothing to do.The aesthetics of the two are also very similar.
"Don't worry Kate, I'm marrying an Englishman, not going abroad." Liliana said with a smile.
After a while, Mycroft arrived.
"It seems that my dear sister-in-law is in a good mood today." As soon as he entered the door, Mycroft joked.
Prince William seemed to want to give McCoff a warning, he walked up to McCoff quickly: "My sister is not your sister-in-law yet. If your younger brother Sherlock can't take good care of Liliana, I don't mind annulling this engagement! "
"William, we will be a family from now on." Queen Elizabeth stopped Prince William, "I am going to let the newspaper publish this news tomorrow."
"Liliana just needs to pick out the dress and bouquet, and leave the rest to us." Princess Kate said to Liliana.
"Well, Kate is the best for me!" Liliana happily snuggled into Princess Kate's arms.
Then, they discussed some details of the wedding.Prince William offered to report the wedding next spring.
"No, I like autumn better, next autumn. Don't be in a hurry, there is still time to make a few more skirts." Liliana objected.
"That's fine, let's make it so. Liliana, you are now Sherlock's fiancée, so you should be more reserved." Queen Elizabeth reminded Liliana.
"I'll bring the news to Sherlock." Mycroft bowed respectfully to the members of the royal family and left.
The next morning, the headlines of the major newspapers in the UK and international newspapers were the same - the most popular British princess Liliana married Sherlock, the savior of the police in the 21st century!
As soon as Sherlock went out, all the reporters gathered around to ask about the wedding date and some details.
Liliana was still happily playing with Sherlock and John under the protection of the bodyguards, and went to various crime scenes.
However, it seems that Sherlock has become extremely busy recently because of Moriarty's comeback.I heard that the court jury acquitted Moriarty two days ago.Liliana couldn't help but want to cut open the heads of those people to see if there was paste inside.

2014. January 1, 21
It was a very ordinary day.
At eight o'clock, Liliana woke up naturally, looked at the engagement ring on her hand for a long time, and then slowly got out of bed to take a shower.
"Your Highness, do you want milk and bread for breakfast today?" the maid asked after Liliana.
Liliana usually wakes up later than Her Majesty and the Williams, so her breakfast is prepared separately.
"I want a croissant for bread, thank you." Liliana's breakfast was more casual.
The maid immediately served breakfast.
"It's been almost a month, why is there still news about me in the newspaper?" Liliana asked while stuffing a mouthful of bread.
"Her Royal Highness's marriage contract has always attracted people's attention. Before, I was curious about you marrying Mr. Holmes, and now I am a wedding guest and bridesmaid and best man." The maid explained.
"Yes, after all Sherlock is also a public figure." Liliana smiled happily.
The maid who grew up with Liliana saw how happy Liliana was, and laughed along with her.
"Migu, migu..." The familiar text message of owl hooting rang.
"A message from Mr. Holmes?" asked the maid.
"Yeah." Liliana smiled and unlocked the screen lock.
"To my dear fiancée: The luckiest thing in my life was meeting you and John. You gave me a taste of what it's like to love someone. If you don't mind, I may have to go first. Take you and leave me fond memories and public interest, I am more than happy to face death. SH”
The hand holding the milk suddenly became weak, and Liliana didn't recover until the sound of the quilt being smashed on the ground and the maid's shouting came.
"Your Highness, what happened?" The royal steward heard the voice and hurried in.
Liliana stood up helplessly holding the phone: "Sherlock, he..."
Liliana started frantically calling Sherlock. "Sorry, the number you dialed is temporarily unavailable..." The cold voice on the phone is always this sentence.
"Quick, get the car ready." Liliana hurried out to find Sherlock before she even had time to change out of her pajamas and slippers.
At 12:18 p.m., Liliana received a call from John, who said Sherlock had died and his body was at Butts Hospital.
Walking into Butts Hospital, Liliana felt that the atmosphere was so oppressive that she could hardly breathe.
"John, where is Sherlock?" John turned his head, and Liliana followed his gaze.
On the autopsy bed, Sherlock lay there with a white cloth covering his neck.
Liliana walked forward uncontrollably, but McCoff stopped her.
"Get out of the way." Liliana's voice was emotionless.
"I'm sorry, but I can't let you pass," Mycroft said.
Liliana suddenly desperately wanted to push away Mycroft's hand: "Let go, I said let go. Sherlock is still there, let me go! Mycroft, let me go!"
Tears couldn't stop falling, and I yelled hysterically until I had no strength left.Liliana knelt on the ground, covering her face and weeping: "He said that after we got married, we were going to visit the Aegean Sea, and he also said that we would go to Shanghai to eat steamed buns again! We just talked on the phone yesterday! Why did this happen?"
Liliana was not brought back to the palace until she collapsed from crying.
In a matter of hours, newspaper headlines turned from well-wishes to sighs of sorrow.
A few days later, Liliana, dressed in a black suit, traveled with John to Sherlock's funeral outside London.
After the crowd dispersed, Liliana gently stroked the name on the tombstone, hoping to feel a little bit of remaining warmth.Only desolation responded to her.
For the next few months, Liliana sat in a rocking chair in her room every day.Either he was in a daze aimlessly, or he read Sherlock's last text message thousands of times with tears in his eyes.
"Lily?" Princess Kate walked up to Liliana and gently put her arms around her shoulders, "Your coronation ceremony will be in a few days, can you cheer up?"
In a blink of an eye, Liliana was already 24 years old, reaching the legal coronation age.Once crowned, it means that Liliana has an additional responsibility to rule the country and protect the people.
Liliana nodded, then buried her head in her arms.
☆、Chapter 17
2014. May 5, 6
Today is Liliana's coronation day.
The President of France, the Prime Minister of Italy, the Prime Minister of Germany, and the Premier of China all came to attend the coronation ceremony, but there was no smile on Liliana's face.
She was wearing a coronation costume, a two-meter-long tail, and a milky white dress.There is a long passage through the church, and you come to the Pope.
"In the name of God, I will grant you the name of Princess Liliana Westminster. Please swear in the name of God to treat your people well." The Pope held the crown in one hand and the Bible in the other, solemnly explain.
Liliana half-kneeled on the ground: "Today, I swear in the name of God that I will treat my people well and manage my country with my heart. I will take on all my responsibilities."
The pope made a gold and gem-studded crown and slowly put it on Liliana's head.
Only those who really understand will know what this ceremony means.They were not happy for Liliana, and even felt sorry for her.
This crown is a cage.
After the ceremony, envoys and representatives from various countries sent blessings and gifts one after another.Sherlock Holmes was carefully avoided by almost everyone.
"We are really sorry about what happened to Mr. Holmes. But we are very happy and honored to be crowned successfully today." Liliana, who thought it was about to end, was about to breathe a sigh of relief, but who knew that the Australian Prime Minister talked about it without knowing the depth this matter.
Liliana's faint smile, which she could barely squeeze out, suddenly turned into a cold face.
Queen Elizabeth watched from the sidelines, silently crossing out several cooperation projects in Australia.
After all the guests had dispersed, Liliana found John who was still in Westminster Abbey.
"Want to go see Sherlock together?" John asked.
Liliana nodded.
The quiet suburbs of London look extraordinarily desolate in spring.
The two stood silently in front of Sherlock's tombstone for a long time, until Liliana took off the crown and placed it in front of Sherlock's tombstone.
"Look, Sherlock, does this crown look good?" Liliana said by herself, "It's too ugly, it doesn't fit my aesthetics at all. It feels so old-fashioned, you must think so too?"
After finishing speaking, Liliana smiled lightly, feeling infinitely lonely.
"Sherlock, you haven't yelled bored in my ear for four months, and I still don't feel used to it." John said awkwardly, "I'm going to move out. I'm just telling you, not asking for your opinion ."
The two of them sat next to the tombstone for a while, chatting about trivial matters from the past.
The two stayed in the cemetery for almost an hour and a half before waving goodbye.
Before leaving, John said, "Call me if you have anything to do." But they both knew that without the bond of Sherlock, they didn't know when the next meeting would be.
"Your Highness, are we going directly to the palace?" the driver asked.
Liliana thought for a while and replied, "Go to Baker Street."
When she came to Baker Street, Liliana felt extremely relaxed.Mrs. Hudson was reluctant to clean the second-floor rooms for fear of thinking about others.Liliana asked the housekeeper to arrange for someone to clean it every day, not wanting to make the whole room look empty, as if it had been dusty for many years.
Sit in the chair Sherlock usually sits on.Nothing else, just sitting.Gradually, fatigue and sleepiness came together from getting up too early to prepare for the coronation.
Liliana fell asleep sitting up, and it was already the next morning when she woke up again.
☆、Chapter 18
2014. November 11, 19
After Liliana's coronation, the first foreign affairs - the 80th anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic relations between the UK and the Czech Republic - was ushered in.
Originally, it would have been nice for William and his wife to attend the celebration ceremony, but the Czech Prime Minister named Liliana by name in the invitation letter.
But if you think about it carefully, Liliana, as the British diplomatic ambassador, also has a very good international reputation.Attending as a representative couldn't be more appropriate.
The luncheon celebrating the 80th anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic relations is neither dull nor interesting.The Czech Prime Minister and Liliana each made a statement.The next step is to introduce the dishes and meals.
So soon the luncheon was over.
In her free time all afternoon, Liliana bought a cup of hot cocoa and sat by the fountain in Prague Square, Czech Republic, watching people go by.
Unlike London, which is depressing and dull like its weather, Prague is like a world like a fairy tale.Children running past from time to time, a group of white pigeons staying in the square.
Changing into plain jeans and a plaid scarf, Liliana blends into the landscape.Her bodyguard sat reading a newspaper.
"Sister Liliana?" A child's voice caught Liliana's attention.
A little girl with blond hair and blue eyes who looked only five or six years old.She held a blooming rose, and tried to lift it toward Liliana.
"Is this for me?" Liliana put down her coffee and asked with a smile.
The little girl nodded: "Well, an uncle asked me to give it to you. He also said that I can't let me tell you who he is. Oh, by the way, my name is Lucy."
Lucy's sweet voice is especially cute.Liliana took her rose: "Thank you, Lucy."
"Then sister, I'm leaving, bye!" Lucy waved to Liliana and left bouncing away.
"Princess Liliana, please let me check." The bodyguard on the side stood up.
Liliana handed the rose to the bodyguard.The latter checked the roses carefully, and after finding nothing wrong, he returned the roses to Liliana.
Curious about who sent it, Liliana looked around.
About ten meters away, with a group of white pigeons in between, Liliana saw a familiar figure from behind.
The same black sheepskin trench coat, the same black curly hair.Exactly the same back.Liliana didn't even realize she was on her feet.
That figure went further and further away.Liliana wanted to chase it out, but felt that her steps were heavy.
She managed to take the first step and the second step, and her pace became faster and faster, but she still couldn't catch up with the person in front of her.
Walking through the center of the square, the white dove in front was startled by a huff.The white dove in mid-air confuses Liliana's sight.
When the group of white pigeons flew into the sky, Liliana found that the figure from the back could no longer be found in the empty square.Just the crowds of people coming and going.It seems that even those people's footsteps have become hurried.
"Sherlock!" Liliana yelled, "Sherlock, come out!"
People around cast strange glances.
Liliana's bodyguards rushed over to hold her back.
The man in front is Sherlock.He is Sherlock!
Liliana wanted to break free and move forward.But the strength of the bodyguard is too great.
Liliana was forcibly taken back to the hotel to rest, and Queen Elizabeth was soon notified of the incident.
Under the queen's instructions, Liliana ended her trip to the Czech Republic ahead of schedule and returned to England.
"Kate, that's Sherlock! I saw him." Liliana tugged at Princess Kate's clothes, "He's still alive!"
Princess Kate held her hand: "Liliana, he is dead. Sherlock is dead, you must have read it wrong."
Tears welled up in Liliana's eyes: "No, that's him!"
Princess Kate gently patted Liliana on the back: "Good girl, don't cry."
Liliana looked at the ring that was still shining on her left middle finger, and she remembered the moment when Sherlock put the ring on her.
She curled up her body so that no one could see her tears.
Only the rose was alone in the vase.
☆、Chapter 19
2015. January 1, 21
Today is Sherlock's one-year anniversary.
In the morning, the butler brought a postcard.It was written by Sherlock to Liliana when Sherlock and Liliana went to Shanghai together last year.
On the front is a cat looking up at the sky under a sakura tree, and on the back it reads:
"I once said that love is a matter of emotion, which contradicts what I believe to be the most important sober thought. I also said that I would never marry so as not to cloud my judgment. But I cannot deceive Myself, say that I do not love you. If this is destiny, I am willing to surrender."
"Ionce said that love is motional thing, and whatever rise motional is proposed to that true cold reason which I putace above all things. I also said I should never marry myself, lest I bias my judgment. But I cannot cheat myself to refuse the fact that I am falling love with you. Accept it willingly."
Liliana carefully read this passage many times.
"Maybe this is what you call fate, it gave me hope but brought me endless disappointment. 』Liliana lowered her head and stroked the ring.
On the other hand, the postcard that should have been sent to Sherlock was forwarded to Mycroft.
Mycroft turned to the reverse side of the postcard:
"People say you're a freak, that you won't be satisfied with solving cases one day. You have many enemies, and your biggest lovers are the case and John. I had everything I wanted, but without you Incomplete. Now, I want to hear from you about the Hound case."
"Everyone says you are afreak, they said one day you will not satisfied with solving the case. You have many enemies, and your biggest lovers are the case and John. I had everything I wanted, but it was not complete without you. Well, I want to hear you talk about the hound."
"I really hope that my dear brother can see these meaty things written by Her Highness the Princess." Mycroft threw the postcard to the secretary next to him.
"I remember that today is Sherlock's memorial day, right? Really, I walked away and left everything to me." Mycroft said to the secretary.He stood up and straightened his suit.
When Mycroft arrived at the cemetery on the outskirts of London, Liliana and John had already arrived.
"John, long time no see." Mycroft stood beside John.
"It's almost a year indeed." John made a rough calculation.
Mycroft glanced at Liliana: "It seems that Her Royal Highness has come out of the shadows. However, it has been so long after all."
Liliana pursed her lips and did not speak.
"Well, I'm starting a new life. I'm renting an apartment out and getting a job in a clinic." John said suddenly, out of nowhere.
"That's good, it's time to start getting on the right track." Liliana echoed, "I seem to have been depressed for a long time."
She looked up at the sky. The weather in London, which is always known for its rainy weather, is surprisingly good today.
It seems that God also wants her to start again like John.
"I'm glad you think so, Your Royal Highness." Mycroft said, "Your grandmother and brother have worried about you for a long time."
Liliana asked her entourage to take out the postcard she was carrying.After she took it, she gently placed it in front of Sherlock's tombstone: "Sherlock Holmes, we will never have any relationship in the future. I am going to start a new life, and I hope you will leave my memory as soon as possible." !"
Liliana bowed reverently to Sherlock's tombstone, then turned and left the cemetery.
Liliana's life is gradually getting back on track.Breakfast on time every day, various social activities, then lunch, afternoon tea and dinner, and go to bed after evening activities.
Before she was crowned, Liliana thought that the princess could do everything she wanted.But now, she found that she had no time for herself at all.
"It turns out that the real work of the princess is like this. Sure enough, only if you have done it yourself, you will know how hard it is. 』Liliana wrote in the diary, finally wrote down today's date, and finally drew a little crying expression.
☆、Chapter 20
2015. December 12, 8
"Hi, John." A few days ago, Liliana unexpectedly received a call from John, saying that he wanted to introduce someone to her, and the two made an appointment to meet at the cafe today.
"Long time no see, this is uh... my girlfriend Mary." John solemnly introduced the lady beside him.
Liliana looked at the lady sitting opposite, with short blond hair and two apple muscles when she smiled.
"You didn't tell me that your friend is the princess, John!" Mary turned her head and asked John when she saw who was coming.
"without
"Sherlock, I haven't seen Lily for two days. Talk to her." Mrs. Hudson persuaded Sherlock and John while serving breakfast.
"We're fine, she's just going back to the palace for two days. I won't do such things as quarreling and venting excess emotions." Sherlock said, picking up the knife and fork to prepare for breakfast.
"Sherlock, Liliana is your girlfriend! You shouldn't have told her about this. She cleaned up all the cosmetics in the room!" John said to Sherlock, "Don't tell me she only has one set of cosmetics .”
Sherlock was stunned for two seconds, then got up and walked to Liliana's room.
The cosmetics on the table are gone, the oil paintings on the wall are gone.All that's left is a photo of Sherlock and Liliana in China.Under Liliana's guidance, Sherlock finally made a heart shape.
Sherlock picked up the photo carefully, looked at it for a long time before putting it back on the table.
"John, I... have something to ask you."
Elsewhere, Liliana sulks in her room in the palace.
"Your Highness, the Queen is here." The maid said respectfully to Liliana.
"Lily, are you still arguing with that Mr. Holmes?" The queen sat next to Liliana.
"No, oops, I don't want to talk about him." Liliana seemed to be having a fight with Sherlock.
The queen patted the back of Liliana's hand lovingly: "Why don't we just be angry with him. Tomorrow German Chancellor Merkel and her son will visit the UK. Why don't you go out with his son? You are about the same age, so there should be some common topic."
"But... I don't want to go." Liliana refused without thinking.
"Just take it easy and listen to grandma. That's it!" The Queen made the decision directly for Liliana.
"That Mr. Holmes doesn't understand love at all.I can't let Liliana get hurt. ’ the queen thought so.
The next morning, Liliana stood in front of Luke Merkel in a crisp suit in a plain blouse and jeans.
"I just wanted to see if you still wanted to go out with me. 』Liliana thought, pretending to walk forward gracefully.
"I've heard that Princess Liliana is very beautiful, and now it seems that even ordinary jeans can make her shine." Luke praised, with a sincere expression on his face, "May I have the honor to invite you to go with me?" Going around Hyde Park?"
When Liliana heard the praise, she almost sprained her feet, but she still said very politely: "Of course."
There are not many opportunities to see Her Royal Highness in person. After knowing that Her Royal Highness will be in Hyde Park, Liliana's fans will be surrounded by the park.Moreover, a few days ago, Liliana was also named "the most friendly princess" in history, which was widely praised.
Besides, to be honest, Luke is really handsome.
"Your Highness, can you sign for me?" "Luke, can you take a photo with me?" Fans kept screaming from the sidelines.
The media also came a lot and took photos of Liliana and Luke.
"Why don't you sit by the lake?" Luke suggested.
Liliana took the bread crumbs from the assistant who was accompanying her and threw them into the lake.
The swan raised by Her Majesty the Queen swam over.
"His Royal Highness seems to like these swans?" Luke said casually.
"I raised this with my grandmother when I was a child." Liliana reached out and touched the swan's head.Swan is not shy at all, and it can be seen that she has a good relationship with Liliana.
Luke brought an exquisite box from the assistant: "By the way, I have a gift for you."
Take the box.Liliana carefully opened it: "Oh, so beautiful!"
Luke sent a snow crystal ball with Neuschwanstein Castle inside.Very nice and delicate.
Liliana was playing with it when a familiar voice came from behind: "Liliana doesn't like such messy things, she likes the retro British style."
Liliana and Luke looked back and saw Sherlock standing in his iconic trench coat.It's really a twitching expression.
"No, I like this crystal ball." Liliana stuffed the crystal ball into her bosom.
"No, you don't like it."
"I just like it, and you don't know me, Sherlock." Liliana suddenly exploded.
"Liliana Westminster, 170 cm tall and 48.5 kg in weight. The person I like most is Queen Elizabeth, and the person I hate the most should be me. My favorite book is "Evil in the Sun" and I like to drink Clear chicken soup. You like Tiffany blue, you like royal bears. I can accurately calculate your menstrual cycle, and I know you better than yourself."

[-]. Christmas
"It seems that Her Royal Highness Princess Liliana is with the high-functioning anti-social Sherlock. The legend should be true." Luke said, "The quarrel was quite serious?"
"You German boy, don't interrupt!" Sherlock yelled.
Liliana saw that Sherlock was in a hurry, and quickly pulled Sherlock back: "Okay, okay, I forgive you. Luke is a guest, so he can't be so rude."
"It's for my face, let's make up now?" Luke said to Liliana and Sherlock.
"Okay. Sherlock, you are not allowed to mention this matter again, or I will be angry." Liliana straightened the scarf for Sherlock.
Sherlock pushed Liliana into his arms: "I'll buy you the necklace you've seen three times, go to Chinatown to buy your favorite chicken soup on a snowy day, and let McCaughey consign your favorite snacks from China , accompany you to Russia in summer, and take you to Egypt in winter. Forgive me?"
ha?How did Sherlock come up with such a nasty words?
"Great, you finally reconciled!" At this moment, John came from nowhere.
Sherlock let go of Liliana and nodded to John: "What you taught me is really useful."
"Okay, you two, let's be in collusion!" Liliana pretended to be angry.
John patted Liliana on the shoulder: "Just see you two get back together."
Sherlock took the initiative to shake hands with Luke: "Thank you for bringing Liliana a gift, she likes it very much."
"It's really a husband's tone." Luke teased, "But you can reconcile, I have a credit, right? Don't forget to invite me when you get married."
"Sure." Sherlock acted like the master of a family.
"Sherlock, it's Christmas time." Although Liliana and Sherlock have reconciled, Liliana still lives in the palace because she is the national image ambassador of the United Kingdom and in order to facilitate participation in various promotional activities.But Sherlock calls Liliana every day, which is really rare for a person who doesn't call as long as he can text.
"Huh?" Sherlock was going to the scene of the crime with John.
"Spent Christmas together?" Liliana twisted her hair with her hands.
Sherlock thought for a moment and said, "Mrs. Hudson invited John's girlfriend, who is called Annie, and Gray to dinner on Christmas Eve. Would you like to come?"
"Well, what's the case this time?" Liliana guessed from Sherlock's speaking speed that he was rushing to the scene.
"The Missing Blonde, the name on John's blog," Sherlock groans. "That's cheesy."
Liliana smiled: "Then you guys are busy. I'll hang up first."
"Liliana?" Seeing Sherlock hang up the phone with a smile, John didn't need to guess that it was Liliana, "You guys are calling again."
"You can call your Janet too." Sherlock put the phone back in his pocket.
John said solemnly, "It's Jenny, not Janet!"
On Christmas Eve, Liliana came to 221b Baker Street with presents.
"Oh, Lily. You are finally here. It's been a long time. I miss you so much!" Mrs. Hudson gave her a big hug.
"I miss you too, Mrs. Hudson. This is the West Lake Longjing tea leaves that I entrusted someone to bring from China. Merry Christmas!" Liliana took out a beautifully packaged gift.
"I also prepared a gift for you, and it's upstairs. Go up and have a look." Mrs. Hudson went upstairs with Liliana.
"Liliana! You are finally here, Sherlock has looked at his watch no less than ten times." John said.
"Only eight times, John, you are too careless to observe." Sherlock stepped forward and hugged Liliana tightly.
"Sherlock, I can't breathe."
Mrs. Hudson gave a set of teapots, John a silk scarf, and newly acquainted Sheriff Lestrade a baseball cap.
"This is for John, a new jacket. Inspector Lestrade's Japanese peace guard." Liliana took out the presents one by one.
Finally, she took out a dark blue rectangular box: "This is for Sherlock."
Sherlock took it and shook it first.There was only a slight grinding sound from the box.
Opening the box, there was a dark blue scarf lying quietly inside. "I wove this myself. If it's not good, you have to accept it."
"It's beautiful." Sherlock immediately put the scarf around his neck, "how is it?"
"Are you asking me?" John asked in surprise, "It's nice, but you never do."
"It's from my girlfriend." Sherlock said matter-of-factly.
☆、Chapter 15
[-]. Marriage Proposal
"My Christmas present, you must accept it too." Sherlock clenched and loosened his hands, looking a little nervous.
Liliana smiled: "Yes."
Sherlock took out a small box wrapped in flannel from his pocket.He opened it slowly.
Inside is a heart-shaped sapphire with many broken diamonds embellished next to it. It is a Tiffany diamond ring, which is very delicate.
Sherlock knelt on the ground, holding the diamond ring in one hand, and took Liliana's hand with the other: "Miss Liliana, are you willing to marry me? Although you may be angry because I am obsessed with the case."
Liliana was agitated for a while, feeling her nose was sore, tears flowed down.
"Lily, promise Sherlock quickly!" Mrs. Hudson pushed Liliana slightly towards Sherlock.
"I do!" Liliana finally nodded.
Sherlock carefully put the ring on Liliana's left middle finger.Then he reverently kissed the back of Liliana's hand.
In the evening, Sherlock accompanied Liliana back to the palace.
"Sherlock, what kind of wedding dress do you want to wear?" "Does the cake have four or five layers?" "How about going to China for honeymoon? I want to go to Italy too."
"Woo..." Sherlock suddenly lowered his head and kissed Liliana.
Queen Elizabeth soon knew about Sherlock's proposal to Liliana.On Christmas Day, the entire royal family held an important meeting.
"Lily, have you really thought about it?" Princess Kate asked Liliana solemnly.
Prince William added: "Once it is announced that you are engaged, it is irreversible."
"I've made up my mind. I want to be with Sherlock." Liliana nodded.
Queen Elizabeth whispered a few words to the waiter and said to the three of them: "Since Liliana has made a decision, we should respect her. I called McCauf to discuss the wedding date and some specific details."
"Liliana, really, you're going to get married in a blink of an eye." Princess Kate walked over and hugged Liliana.
Liliana had a very good relationship with her brother Prince William since she was a child, except for the two who had disputes over who would inherit the ruling power, but most of the time they often stuck together.
For the sister-in-law of Princess Kate, Liliana also likes it very much.They will go shopping and watch movies together when they have nothing to do.The aesthetics of the two are also very similar.
"Don't worry Kate, I'm marrying an Englishman, not going abroad." Liliana said with a smile.
After a while, Mycroft arrived.
"It seems that my dear sister-in-law is in a good mood today." As soon as he entered the door, Mycroft joked.
Prince William seemed to want to give McCoff a warning, he walked up to McCoff quickly: "My sister is not your sister-in-law yet. If your younger brother Sherlock can't take good care of Liliana, I don't mind annulling this engagement! "
"William, we will be a family from now on." Queen Elizabeth stopped Prince William, "I am going to let the newspaper publish this news tomorrow."
"Liliana just needs to pick out the dress and bouquet, and leave the rest to us." Princess Kate said to Liliana.
"Well, Kate is the best for me!" Liliana happily snuggled into Princess Kate's arms.
Then, they discussed some details of the wedding.Prince William offered to report the wedding next spring.
"No, I like autumn better, next autumn. Don't be in a hurry, there is still time to make a few more skirts." Liliana objected.
"That's fine, let's make it so. Liliana, you are now Sherlock's fiancée, so you should be more reserved." Queen Elizabeth reminded Liliana.
"I'll bring the news to Sherlock." Mycroft bowed respectfully to the members of the royal family and left.
The next morning, the headlines of the major newspapers in the UK and international newspapers were the same - the most popular British princess Liliana married Sherlock, the savior of the police in the 21st century!
As soon as Sherlock went out, all the reporters gathered around to ask about the wedding date and some details.
Liliana was still happily playing with Sherlock and John under the protection of the bodyguards, and went to various crime scenes.
However, it seems that Sherlock has become extremely busy recently because of Moriarty's comeback.I heard that the court jury acquitted Moriarty two days ago.Liliana couldn't help but want to cut open the heads of those people to see if there was paste inside.
☆、Chapter 16
2014. January 1, 21
It was a very ordinary day.
At eight o'clock, Liliana woke up naturally, looked at the engagement ring on her hand for a long time, and then slowly got out of bed to take a shower.
"Your Highness, do you want milk and bread for breakfast today?" the maid asked after Liliana.
Liliana usually wakes up later than Her Majesty and the Williams, so her breakfast is prepared separately.
"I want a croissant for bread, thank you." Liliana's breakfast was more casual.
The maid immediately served breakfast.
"It's been almost a month, why is there still news about me in the newspaper?" Liliana asked while stuffing a mouthful of bread.
"Her Royal Highness's marriage contract has always attracted people's attention. Before, I was curious about you marrying Mr. Holmes, and now I am a wedding guest and bridesmaid and best man." The maid explained.
"Yes, after all Sherlock is also a public figure." Liliana smiled happily.
The maid who grew up with Liliana saw how happy Liliana was, and laughed along with her.
"Migu, migu..." The familiar text message of owl hooting rang.
"A message from Mr. Holmes?" asked the maid.
"Yeah." Liliana smiled and unlocked the screen lock.
"To my dear fiancée: The luckiest thing in my life was meeting you and John. You gave me a taste of what it's like to love someone. If you don't mind, I may have to go first. Take you and leave me fond memories and public interest, I am more than happy to face death. SH”
The hand holding the milk suddenly became weak, and Liliana didn't recover until the sound of the quilt being smashed on the ground and the maid's shouting came.
"Your Highness, what happened?" The royal steward heard the voice and hurried in.
Liliana stood up helplessly holding the phone: "Sherlock, he..."
Liliana started frantically calling Sherlock. "Sorry, the number you dialed is temporarily unavailable..." The cold voice on the phone is always this sentence.
"Quick, get the car ready." Liliana hurried out to find Sherlock before she even had time to change out of her pajamas and slippers.
At 12:18 p.m., Liliana received a call from John, who said Sherlock had died and his body was at Butts Hospital.
Walking into Butts Hospital, Liliana felt that the atmosphere was so oppressive that she could hardly breathe.
"John, where is Sherlock?" John turned his head, and Liliana followed his gaze.
On the autopsy bed, Sherlock lay there with a white cloth covering his neck.
Liliana walked forward uncontrollably, but McCoff stopped her.
"Get out of the way." Liliana's voice was emotionless.
"I'm sorry, but I can't let you pass," Mycroft said.
Liliana suddenly desperately wanted to push away Mycroft's hand: "Let go, I said let go. Sherlock is still there, let me go! Mycroft, let me go!"
Tears couldn't stop falling, and I yelled hysterically until I had no strength left.Liliana knelt on the ground, covering her face and weeping: "He said that after we got married, we were going to visit the Aegean Sea, and he also said that we would go to Shanghai to eat steamed buns again! We just talked on the phone yesterday! Why did this happen?"
Liliana was not brought back to the palace until she collapsed from crying.
In a matter of hours, newspaper headlines turned from well-wishes to sighs of sorrow.
A few days later, Liliana, dressed in a black suit, traveled with John to Sherlock's funeral outside London.
After the crowd dispersed, Liliana gently stroked the name on the tombstone, hoping to feel a little bit of remaining warmth.Only desolation responded to her.
For the next few months, Liliana sat in a rocking chair in her room every day.Either he was in a daze aimlessly, or he read Sherlock's last text message thousands of times with tears in his eyes.
"Lily?" Princess Kate walked up to Liliana and gently put her arms around her shoulders, "Your coronation ceremony will be in a few days, can you cheer up?"
In a blink of an eye, Liliana was already 24 years old, reaching the legal coronation age.Once crowned, it means that Liliana has an additional responsibility to rule the country and protect the people.
Liliana nodded, then buried her head in her arms.
☆、Chapter 17
2014. May 5, 6
Today is Liliana's coronation day.
The President of France, the Prime Minister of Italy, the Prime Minister of Germany, and the Premier of China all came to attend the coronation ceremony, but there was no smile on Liliana's face.
She was wearing a coronation costume, a two-meter-long tail, and a milky white dress.There is a long passage through the church, and you come to the Pope.
"In the name of God, I will grant you the name of Princess Liliana Westminster. Please swear in the name of God to treat your people well." The Pope held the crown in one hand and the Bible in the other, solemnly explain.
Liliana half-kneeled on the ground: "Today, I swear in the name of God that I will treat my people well and manage my country with my heart. I will take on all my responsibilities."
The pope made a gold and gem-studded crown and slowly put it on Liliana's head.
Only those who really understand will know what this ceremony means.They were not happy for Liliana, and even felt sorry for her.
This crown is a cage.
After the ceremony, envoys and representatives from various countries sent blessings and gifts one after another.Sherlock Holmes was carefully avoided by almost everyone.
"We are really sorry about what happened to Mr. Holmes. But we are very happy and honored to be crowned successfully today." Liliana, who thought it was about to end, was about to breathe a sigh of relief, but who knew that the Australian Prime Minister talked about it without knowing the depth this matter.
Liliana's faint smile, which she could barely squeeze out, suddenly turned into a cold face.
Queen Elizabeth watched from the sidelines, silently crossing out several cooperation projects in Australia.
After all the guests had dispersed, Liliana found John who was still in Westminster Abbey.
"Want to go see Sherlock together?" John asked.
Liliana nodded.
The quiet suburbs of London look extraordinarily desolate in spring.
The two stood silently in front of Sherlock's tombstone for a long time, until Liliana took off the crown and placed it in front of Sherlock's tombstone.
"Look, Sherlock, does this crown look good?" Liliana said by herself, "It's too ugly, it doesn't fit my aesthetics at all. It feels so old-fashioned, you must think so too?"
After finishing speaking, Liliana smiled lightly, feeling infinitely lonely.
"Sherlock, you haven't yelled bored in my ear for four months, and I still don't feel used to it." John said awkwardly, "I'm going to move out. I'm just telling you, not asking for your opinion ."
The two of them sat next to the tombstone for a while, chatting about trivial matters from the past.
The two stayed in the cemetery for almost an hour and a half before waving goodbye.
Before leaving, John said, "Call me if you have anything to do." But they both knew that without the bond of Sherlock, they didn't know when the next meeting would be.
"Your Highness, are we going directly to the palace?" the driver asked.
Liliana thought for a while and replied, "Go to Baker Street."
When she came to Baker Street, Liliana felt extremely relaxed.Mrs. Hudson was reluctant to clean the second-floor rooms for fear of thinking about others.Liliana asked the housekeeper to arrange for someone to clean it every day, not wanting to make the whole room look empty, as if it had been dusty for many years.
Sit in the chair Sherlock usually sits on.Nothing else, just sitting.Gradually, fatigue and sleepiness came together from getting up too early to prepare for the coronation.
Liliana fell asleep sitting up, and it was already the next morning when she woke up again.
☆、Chapter 18
2014. November 11, 19
After Liliana's coronation, the first foreign affairs - the 80th anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic relations between the UK and the Czech Republic - was ushered in.
Originally, it would have been nice for William and his wife to attend the celebration ceremony, but the Czech Prime Minister named Liliana by name in the invitation letter.
But if you think about it carefully, Liliana, as the British diplomatic ambassador, also has a very good international reputation.Attending as a representative couldn't be more appropriate.
The luncheon celebrating the 80th anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic relations is neither dull nor interesting.The Czech Prime Minister and Liliana each made a statement.The next step is to introduce the dishes and meals.
So soon the luncheon was over.
In her free time all afternoon, Liliana bought a cup of hot cocoa and sat by the fountain in Prague Square, Czech Republic, watching people go by.
Unlike London, which is depressing and dull like its weather, Prague is like a world like a fairy tale.Children running past from time to time, a group of white pigeons staying in the square.
Changing into plain jeans and a plaid scarf, Liliana blends into the landscape.Her bodyguard sat reading a newspaper.
"Sister Liliana?" A child's voice caught Liliana's attention.
A little girl with blond hair and blue eyes who looked only five or six years old.She held a blooming rose, and tried to lift it toward Liliana.
"Is this for me?" Liliana put down her coffee and asked with a smile.
The little girl nodded: "Well, an uncle asked me to give it to you. He also said that I can't let me tell you who he is. Oh, by the way, my name is Lucy."
Lucy's sweet voice is especially cute.Liliana took her rose: "Thank you, Lucy."
"Then sister, I'm leaving, bye!" Lucy waved to Liliana and left bouncing away.
"Princess Liliana, please let me check." The bodyguard on the side stood up.
Liliana handed the rose to the bodyguard.The latter checked the roses carefully, and after finding nothing wrong, he returned the roses to Liliana.
Curious about who sent it, Liliana looked around.
About ten meters away, with a group of white pigeons in between, Liliana saw a familiar figure from behind.
The same black sheepskin trench coat, the same black curly hair.Exactly the same back.Liliana didn't even realize she was on her feet.
That figure went further and further away.Liliana wanted to chase it out, but felt that her steps were heavy.
She managed to take the first step and the second step, and her pace became faster and faster, but she still couldn't catch up with the person in front of her.
Walking through the center of the square, the white dove in front was startled by a huff.The white dove in mid-air confuses Liliana's sight.
When the group of white pigeons flew into the sky, Liliana found that the figure from the back could no longer be found in the empty square.Just the crowds of people coming and going.It seems that even those people's footsteps have become hurried.
"Sherlock!" Liliana yelled, "Sherlock, come out!"
People around cast strange glances.
Liliana's bodyguards rushed over to hold her back.
The man in front is Sherlock.He is Sherlock!
Liliana wanted to break free and move forward.But the strength of the bodyguard is too great.
Liliana was forcibly taken back to the hotel to rest, and Queen Elizabeth was soon notified of the incident.
Under the queen's instructions, Liliana ended her trip to the Czech Republic ahead of schedule and returned to England.
"Kate, that's Sherlock! I saw him." Liliana tugged at Princess Kate's clothes, "He's still alive!"
Princess Kate held her hand: "Liliana, he is dead. Sherlock is dead, you must have read it wrong."
Tears welled up in Liliana's eyes: "No, that's him!"
Princess Kate gently patted Liliana on the back: "Good girl, don't cry."
Liliana looked at the ring that was still shining on her left middle finger, and she remembered the moment when Sherlock put the ring on her.
She curled up her body so that no one could see her tears.
Only the rose was alone in the vase.
☆、Chapter 19
2015. January 1, 21
Today is Sherlock's one-year anniversary.
In the morning, the butler brought a postcard.It was written by Sherlock to Liliana when Sherlock and Liliana went to Shanghai together last year.
On the front is a cat looking up at the sky under a sakura tree, and on the back it reads:
"I once said that love is a matter of emotion, which contradicts what I believe to be the most important sober thought. I also said that I would never marry so as not to cloud my judgment. But I cannot deceive Myself, say that I do not love you. If this is destiny, I am willing to surrender."
"Ionce said that love is motional thing, and whatever rise motional is proposed to that true cold reason which I putace above all things. I also said I should never marry myself, lest I bias my judgment. But I cannot cheat myself to refuse the fact that I am falling love with you. Accept it willingly."
Liliana carefully read this passage many times.
"Maybe this is what you call fate, it gave me hope but brought me endless disappointment. 』Liliana lowered her head and stroked the ring.
On the other hand, the postcard that should have been sent to Sherlock was forwarded to Mycroft.
Mycroft turned to the reverse side of the postcard:
"People say you're a freak, that you won't be satisfied with solving cases one day. You have many enemies, and your biggest lovers are the case and John. I had everything I wanted, but without you Incomplete. Now, I want to hear from you about the Hound case."
"Everyone says you are afreak, they said one day you will not satisfied with solving the case. You have many enemies, and your biggest lovers are the case and John. I had everything I wanted, but it was not complete without you. Well, I want to hear you talk about the hound."
"I really hope that my dear brother can see these meaty things written by Her Highness the Princess." Mycroft threw the postcard to the secretary next to him.
"I remember that today is Sherlock's memorial day, right? Really, I walked away and left everything to me." Mycroft said to the secretary.He stood up and straightened his suit.
When Mycroft arrived at the cemetery on the outskirts of London, Liliana and John had already arrived.
"John, long time no see." Mycroft stood beside John.
"It's almost a year indeed." John made a rough calculation.
Mycroft glanced at Liliana: "It seems that Her Royal Highness has come out of the shadows. However, it has been so long after all."
Liliana pursed her lips and did not speak.
"Well, I'm starting a new life. I'm renting an apartment out and getting a job in a clinic." John said suddenly, out of nowhere.
"That's good, it's time to start getting on the right track." Liliana echoed, "I seem to have been depressed for a long time."
She looked up at the sky. The weather in London, which is always known for its rainy weather, is surprisingly good today.
It seems that God also wants her to start again like John.
"I'm glad you think so, Your Royal Highness." Mycroft said, "Your grandmother and brother have worried about you for a long time."
Liliana asked her entourage to take out the postcard she was carrying.After she took it, she gently placed it in front of Sherlock's tombstone: "Sherlock Holmes, we will never have any relationship in the future. I am going to start a new life, and I hope you will leave my memory as soon as possible." !"
Liliana bowed reverently to Sherlock's tombstone, then turned and left the cemetery.
Liliana's life is gradually getting back on track.Breakfast on time every day, various social activities, then lunch, afternoon tea and dinner, and go to bed after evening activities.
Before she was crowned, Liliana thought that the princess could do everything she wanted.But now, she found that she had no time for herself at all.
"It turns out that the real work of the princess is like this. Sure enough, only if you have done it yourself, you will know how hard it is. 』Liliana wrote in the diary, finally wrote down today's date, and finally drew a little crying expression.
☆、Chapter 20
2015. December 12, 8
"Hi, John." A few days ago, Liliana unexpectedly received a call from John, saying that he wanted to introduce someone to her, and the two made an appointment to meet at the cafe today.
"Long time no see, this is uh... my girlfriend Mary." John solemnly introduced the lady beside him.
Liliana looked at the lady sitting opposite, with short blond hair and two apple muscles when she smiled.
"You didn't tell me that your friend is the princess, John!" Mary turned her head and asked John when she saw who was coming.
