Human words are always powerful.In many cases, one sentence can make people jump for joy, and one sentence can make people jump in anger.Joanna felt that since Mycroft still had the energy to talk about her weight, there shouldn't be a major problem.

Even so, she carefully observed Mycroft's state to make sure he was really only joking.

"It's really a blessing! I can't even imagine what kind of disaster it would be if my father saw me in the office this time!" Joanna moved her body, and the tingling part gradually regained her intuition.Joanna, who had lingering fear, looked at Mycroft's smiling face and asked a little strangely, "You're so happy that something like this happened?"

"Isn't it a good thing that Katu was discovered? Charlotte will soon be able to catch his accomplice by following the clues. Even if he delays for some time, it will not be difficult to do all this within two months." Holmes' euphoria comes from Catto's arrest.

Joanna was still in shock standing by the window behind Mycroft, pulling back a corner of the heavy curtain, and below was the only way to enter and exit the building.Joanna saw her father walking away slowly.

This was the first time she saw Mr. Hilde's back.He was really safe, Joanna couldn't see the numbers above his head, a string of garbled characters took up the original place.This also means that Mr. Hilde is also a person who breaks away from the rules.

Joanna smiled subconsciously, but the smile hadn't fully unfolded yet, like a petal that had been frosted by frost, it completely withered and disappeared on her face.

She saw a series of countdowns from the shallow reflection left on the glass window.Joanna's face almost overlaps with the scenery outside the window, and the trimmed greenery is vibrant, but in Joanna's eyes, it seems to be the background.She looked at the string of numbers above her head, from hour to year and month, it was only more than a month.

Joanna had never seen her own countdown before.Joanna once thought that it was the god of death who had forgotten her out of the rules, but now it has been proved that the god of death has never let her go.

Now, Joanna didn't need to speculate on her own death from the figures above Mr. Hild's head.She saw the ending very clearly.So straightforward——died by Mu Cangsha.

"Do you want to open champagne to celebrate? Ah...! I almost forgot that you are not allowed to drink any alcoholic beverages yet." Turning around, Joanna became very happy again.She made up her mind to keep it a secret until the last lesson, and as usual she had to taunt Mycroft verbally.

Joanna said something indiscriminately, but felt that her own soul seemed to be split in two out of thin air.Part of it was the exultation of breaking the boat, because she made up her mind to live the last month or so.But the other part, along with the countdown that only she could see, slowly melted away and fell into the vortex of fear.

"There's an opera on Sunday... I have two good places here." Mycroft extended the invitation.

He seemed to have decided to do it on a whim.Carefully designed lines should not be so "simple and natural". After all, those students who have no love experience are also using the same routine to pursue their favorite girls.

Joanna froze for a moment.She was caught off guard by the invitation.

This is actually more like a signal, marking that they have entered the normal love process.

—Live like an ordinary person.

"What is the name of the opera? Who is the singer?"

Mycroft called out a name.He also very intimately included a short introduction about the soprano.This is certainly suspected of showing off, but since Mycroft added later: "...This is just a whim on my mind, you can choose to refuse."

Cynthia, who never left, sighed silently in her heart.If she hadn't bowed her head, the other two people in the room would have seen her expression of disapproval.

The well-known classic repertoire has almost reached the point where tickets are hard to find!Mr. Holmes spoke as if it were some obscure play.What's more, if it wasn't for a minister whom Cynthia contacted late at night, 'begging' him to transfer the note, she would probably have believed Holmes' so-called insignificance.

Think about that Sherlock has the same habit.For the first time, Cynthia felt that the aura of the Holmes brothers had fallen off.They are also mortals, they have joys, sorrows, sorrows, and failures in their pursuit... No, it should be said that they are terrible at pursuing their partners.

——Joanna declined Mycroft's invitation after sending a few short messages.

"I don't want to make the same mistake twice. I just found out that my father's private room is directly under our seats, and there is a good chance we will run into each other during the intermission and exit. If this kind of thing happens· "..." Joanna paused, she shrugged, and half-mockingly concluded: "That's much more exciting than an opera."

"Sorry...it was my negligence!" Cynthia's scalp was a little numb.

If we turn back the time to yesterday afternoon, everyone will find that it was Cynthia, the all-powerful female secretary, who suggested that Mr. Mycroft Holmes take Joanna to listen to the opera.

So from a priority point of view.Cynthia's admission of mistakes is not to embarrass Mr. Holmes, it is the only way she can make up for the mistakes, which is to allow Mr. Holmes' troubled date to proceed successfully.

It must be no more difficult than solving a terrorist attack.

The first time Cynthia was blamed, Joanna looked at Mycroft with a half-smile.

"It seems that someone actually prepared carefully..."

"I don't think it's too difficult to be honest, we need more time together." Mycroft raised his forehead.

"Compared to an opera house with many acquaintances, I think watching a movie is enough. You've seen the movie... right?"

Just like Mikelcroft had read all of Joanna's files, Joanna had also carefully screened out the information of Mycroft.This gentleman has been a top student in the school since he was a child. He has received the most elite education and has the most outstanding mind. He has never been inferior to others since he was a child.

···Joanna didn't expect Mycroft and his classmates to have any experience of going to the movies together.But... he and Sherlock always went to see it together... right?

"Of course." Mycroft smirked.It seemed like Joanna was asking a really stupid question.

Um.He did see the movie in the cinema.That was with Sherlock - Austin "Emma".Mycroft still remembers that disastrous viewing experience.He and Sherlock sat in the middle, surrounded by lovers.The filming technique of the movie is different from what the original book takes for granted, and this gap is actually within an acceptable range.What really made Mycroft intolerable was Sherlock's rational analysis of the emotions between the hero and heroine after he left the movie theater.

Can't say Sherlock is wrong.But think about it, at that time Sherlock had just realized that he wasn't actually the dumbest person in the world, on the contrary, he was smarter than most people.Mycroft was almost drowned out by the chatter and examples of the teenage Sherlock.

For a long time to come, Mycroft attributed his receding hairline to this problem, at least in large part because of Sherlock!

Joanna didn't know the past that made Holmes have a headache when he recalled it.But she was getting better at analyzing Mycroft's microexpressions.

—Mycroft must have thought of something bad.

"So what movie do you want to see?"

"Captain America 2."

"We are British..." Mycroft's first words came out very naturally.Then he stopped the car, because both Cynthia and Joanna looked at him, and the disapproving look in the female secretary's eyes was almost concretized and written on Mycroft.As for Joanna?Her half-smile expression is more telling.

"I think... this is a brand new experience." Mycroft swallowed what he wanted to say, and he changed his words temporarily, even though the boss could be heard to be reluctant.But judging from the reactions of the two ladies, his answer should be a high-scoring answer.

"Since this is the case... the tickets for tonight... the theater is very close, and the seats are very good. I will send the address to your driver. You have a very good driver..." Joanna concluded decisively.While discussing, she efficiently booked movie tickets.

"I have nothing else to do and I'm leaving first. I have a bunch of papers to deal with at home...err...I mean, I have a lot of papers to sort out in my office...it's work time after all. "Joanna walked out of the office while talking.

The door of the office was closed from the outside, and Cynthia looked at her heart, pretending that she didn't hear Joanna's slip of the tongue just now.

"Increase the monitoring level of the other three suspects." Joanna left, and Mycroft was at work.

Joanna poked her probe out of the door again: "One last question... remember to take your medicine!"

The door closed again, and this time they could be sure that Joanna would not think of anything to add.

After Mycroft returned to his desk, he looked down at the contents of a few lines of documents. After Cynthia was about to leave, he quickly turned on the computer. He had to wiki Captain America 1...
