It's really a ghost [Comprehensive]

Chapter 3 Goldfish in London 03

Sherlock focused his eyes on Irene who was sitting opposite him, trying to get her reaction into his eyes, and then made further analysis and judgment, but the other party's reaction was beyond Mr. Detective's expectation——

"Oh."

The pupils did not shrink slightly, and the whole person was as relaxed as before, without the fear and anxiety that should have appeared.If possible, Sherlock would like to touch the young lady's hand, to escape the psychological emergency mechanism, and the blood will flow back to the leg first, causing the hand to become cold.But doing so is obviously not what a gentleman should do, is it?

Irene seemed to be slow to react, and she added: "Can I eat first? Before I came here, I was eating."

"Japanese food, I know." Sherlock quickly answered.

Facing Irene's curious and probing eyes, Sherlock explained in a normal tone: "I smell wasabi from you, I bet the only dishes that use this strong mustard are Japanese dishes. In addition, do you acquiesce in my question just now by saying so?"

As Sherlock spoke, he also attached a piece of more intuitive evidence, a short surveillance video about turning people into living beings out of thin air.As for the source of the video, this is an undisclosed secret.

Erin put down the menu, blinked and said, "I thought this was your special way of opening the topic. In order to avoid silence, I will cooperate with you. Don't worry, you are really a very interesting man, and you are dating It won't be unbearable."

Sherlock: "...Then how do you explain this video? It was intercepted from a street monitor."

"Hmm—" Irene thought for a while and gave an answer that sounded reliable, "Magic magic? Maybe I'm a magician."

Sherlock quickly asked: "Even this obviously creased coat on your body, did you conjure it out of thin air?" Then he pointed out: "The shirt and jeans you are wearing now are obviously not what the temperature in London should be. The clothes you wear, and considering the time displayed on your watch, it is perfectly eight time zones away from the current time in London, and considering that you are Chinese, it is Beijing time. Obviously in China, during this season you Now the suit fits just right."

Irene responded to all changes with the same: "I'm afraid I can't tell you the secret of magic."

Sherlock's eyes fell on Irene's shirt, and he asked another frightening question: "Then can you tell me, what kind of material is this shirt you are wearing? I can't tell."

"You are so good at blouses?" Irene said pretending to be surprised, and looked at the purple shirt worn by Mr. Detective in the same way, and said meaningfully, "Well, this is not difficult to understand , after all, you are wearing a purple shirt."

Sherlock pointed out sharply: "I don't think there is any connection between the two, and you are avoiding the question, Miss Ai."

Irene explained "intimately": "It also has another name called gay purple, Mr. Holmes."

Angelo, who saw Irene gesturing and came over to memorize the menu, happened to hear what Irene said, and was afraid that Sherlock would end up alone, so he quickly covered him: "Sherlock is not gay, I can testify to that. Uh , do you think so, Sherlock?"

How could the lonely Sherlock understand the boss's kindness, he turned his head and looked out the window and said, "Girlfriends are not my type."

Angelo: "..." You were right when you said you were born alone!He turned to look at Irene, and said apologetically, "Uh, just order whatever you want, and it will be charged to my account."

Irene showed an unusually bright smile: "Thank you so much!"

Angelo looked at the girl's bright smile, shook his head in his heart, and said sorry for Sherlock.After writing down Irene's order, before he could look at Sherlock, Sherlock's dry voice said "I'm not hungry". They are the only guests at this table.

"Your hand." The consulting detective who seemed deflated before said suddenly.

Erin: "?"

"Your hands are obviously not what a magician should have. Before I shook your hand, you acted like a forensic doctor or a medically trained surgeon, but you are obviously neither. Your hands The thin cocoon is very special, but considering your identity, it is easy to understand, you write with a brush all year round.

Plus you studied mechanical engineering and you smell like perchlorethylene, the oil used to remove those hard-to-remove bolts.You also have a Harley, as you can see from your pant leg. "

Irene subconsciously glanced at her trouser legs. Obviously, she couldn't deduce from the traces on her trouser legs like Mr. Detective did, that she owned a motorcycle or a Harley motorcycle.

Sherlock's interpretation continued, "In addition, you have also practiced swords, not Western swords, but a lighter sword. Judging from your sitting and walking postures, you used to wear your sword behind your back , although I haven't figured out your intention to do so."

The last sentence is really too rare for a Sherlock Holmes, but Sherlock's eyes are very bright-his complexion is pale, and the color of the iris is also very light, as if the other pigments on the whole face Sucked away by his black curly hair.And to be honest, the appearance of the consulting detective does not conform to the current mainstream aesthetics, but he has a special charm when he shows off his IQ, especially his eyes, which have the illusion of sucking people into the vortex.

Now Sherlock is using these eyes to stare at the girl sitting opposite him who seems to be hiding many secrets, and her reaction is beyond Sherlock's expectations again——

She didn't have the surprise, shock, and displeasure of being offended that most people would have, but her eyes became very bright, with that kind of sparkling feeling, as if a child got a favorite toy, and then sincerely admired it Said: "This is really amazing, I want to learn more now! Well, to express my apology and sincerity, I can tell you the truth. Well, I told you earlier "Before I came here, I was eating ’ thing, it’s true. And that video of yours reminded me yet again of the fact that I’m on an amazing journey right now. Believe me, it took me 10 minutes to physically and Mentally accepting this. Speaking of which, you seem pretty convinced that I've been on an amazing journey. Forgive me, I haven't found a proper, or more scientific, word for it yet .”

"I'm not an ordinary person." Mr. Detective said as he stretched out his arms and unbuttoned his cuff buttons.
