[Comprehensive] The winner of life

"Sherlock, I brought you the case file!" Good Inspector Lestrade ran upstairs panting, unexpectedly there were other people in the living room.

Lin Sheng raised his head and smiled at him: "Good morning, Inspector. Just hand over the case to me. We are Sherlock's assistants today."

"us?"

"Cough." Theodore put his chubby little fist to his mouth and coughed. When the inspector turned his attention to him, he puffed out his chest, "And me."

"Are you kidding me?" Lestrade felt that he must have forgotten to pray before coming here today. Where did Sherlock find a female assistant and a child!

"Hmm, I thought the inspector had a big heart of inclusiveness? If you don't want to waste time and let some bank's vault be stolen, then the dossier——" Lin Sheng stretched out his hand, Lestrade subconsciously handed over the file in his hand.

"Uh, how do you know? Where's Sherlock?" Lestrade glanced around and didn't see Sherlock, but when he lowered his head, he met a pair of light blue round eyes - Theodore was very unhappy, His eyes widened, his mouth was pursed, and his plump cheeks looked even more bulging.

"My dear Theodore, this is normal, and the problem will be solved when you are two years older." Lin Sheng quickly flipped through the case file. It was a bank vault robbery, in which diamonds worth 80 pounds were stolen rough stone.The bank's alarm system did not go off, and there were no witnesses. Coincidentally, the same case happened a year ago, but the four perpetrators in that case have been arrested.

"It's really interesting, worth nine points." Lin Sheng raised his head, saw that the inspector was still there, and said casually, "Oh, Sherlock has gone to visit the prison."

"what?"

"One of the perpetrators of the last case wanted to see him, and he went to learn about their crime process by the way. Have you found the insider of the bank?"

"Not yet. Wait, who are you?" Lestrade's curiosity overwhelmed the urgency to solve the case at this moment.God, Sherlock has always been insulated from women, let alone has a child. I don't know why he thinks this child looks familiar, but he can't remember where he saw it?

"Dear Inspector, I don't think your hearing has deteriorated at your age. As I have already introduced, we are Sherlock's assistants. Oh, are you asking about our names? Our surname is Holmes, In a sense, we and Sherlock are a family." Lin Sheng said without raising her head, she clacked the keyboard, and quickly retrieved the information of the four prisoners in the previous case Come out, "Unfortunately, one of them has gone to see God."

"What?" Before Lestrade had time to digest Lin Sheng's words, he subconsciously looked at her screen, "Where did you get the information?"

"Just look for it and find it."

Lestrade: "..."

At this time, Lin Sheng's cell phone rang.

Theodore connected skillfully, "Hello, this is Theodore."

"Erica, here you are." Theodore puffed up his cheeks when he heard McCoff's voice, and put the phone to Lin Sheng's ear.

"Mother and father have already arrived at Baker Street, considering the mental capacity of the old man—" and a series of follow-up events if they are discovered, McCoff feels that it is not what he expected to see.

"Huh?" Lin Sheng let out a casual 'huh', and then quickly realized, "For God's sake!" She quickly cut off the call, pulled out the surveillance video of Baker Street, and cursed softly .Then quickly put Sherlock's laptop into the bag, and stuffed it into the arms of the unknown detective.

"Honey, we have to go." Lin Sheng put on his overcoat, wrapped a scarf around Theodore, hugged him into his arms, and signaled Lestrade with his eyes to stop standing there. "Sherlock is in danger."

Inspector Lestrade grabbed the case in a daze, and followed the mother and son downstairs.

"Mrs. Hudson, goodbye." Mrs. Hudson heard the voice coming out of her room, Lin Sheng greeted quickly, and Theodore pushed the door open in unison, and they quickly got out of 221b.Lin Sheng hugged Theodore without saying a word, and got into the police car driven by the detective.

As soon as the Holmesov couple got out of the taxi, it was really half a minute away, and it was like a war.

Driven by her, Lestrade also hurriedly started the police car, "Where is Sherlock? What happened to him?" Little bastard, don't let anything happen!

"Huh? Sherlock is fine."

"what?"

"Keep driving, Inspector. Don't make such a fuss, I thought you should get used to it. Oh—come on, have you ever seen a criminal who came out to commit a crime with a child, let alone one who took the initiative to get into a police car?" Lin Sheng said She rolled her eyes, "Why don't we go to Scotland Yard and wait for Sherlock to testify against our mother and son? Oh, this reminds me, Scotland Yard's firewall, how can it be called a firewall? Technology from 20 years ago?" She said The disgust on his face made Lestrade feel alarmed, and in the end he actually drove the mother and child to Scotland Yard.

What a novel experience.

"Scotland Yard really hasn't changed at all." Lin Sheng sighed when he got out of the car, and gestured towards the nearest surveillance probe when his back was turned to the inspector.

Theodore took Lin Sheng's hand and looked left and right curiously.

Lestrade still held Lin Sheng's bag in his hand, which contained Sherlock's computer, and looked at Lin Sheng vigilantly.

Lin Sheng: "...Why don't you send Sherlock a text message to ask?"

Lestrade led them both to the police station and left Donovan to watch them while he texted Sherlock.

When Lestrade came back, he was no longer there.

"Donovan!"

Donovan came over with a complicated expression, "Boss, where did you find the female version of Sherlock?"

"What about people?"

"The evidence room."

Lestrade: "...Didn't I tell you to keep an eye on them? Forget it." He hurried over.

In the evidence room, Lin Sheng was taking pictures of the napkins in the evidence bag, and Theodore was observing the papers with a telescopic magnifying glass.

"Sherlock had other business, so let me get this case out. He's hit the breaking point. In a similar case last year, a member of the jury asked to see this napkin a few times. It's funny. Yes, in addition to the names of the four criminals - so you can catch them - there are a few lines of programming code written on it."

"What about this kind of programming code, well, I don't think I need to explain it to you, as long as you know how to use this code to write software, you can hack the random number generation program they steal from the bank, that is, you can predict the entry of the bank vault. password, which would explain how easily they got into the vault."

Lin Sheng said while sending the algorithm to Sherlock, "It's really interesting, maybe we can talk to the bank's management, and I can help them eliminate this loophole, ah, forget it, I'm too lazy to deal with bankers."

Lestrade and Donovan looked at each other.

Lin Sheng found out the person in the jury who asked to read the napkin several times, "Software engineer, I think he must have understood it, you can arrest him now."

"Wait, we have no proof."

"Huh? If you search and search, there will be evidence." Lin Sheng said confidently, "What are you still doing, waiting for him and his accomplices to sell the stolen goods?"

Lestrade reluctantly summoned people to arrest him, Donovan's eyes widened, "Is that why you trust her?"

"Sherlock said I could trust her." Where the hell did she come from?Lestrade was helpless and curious. When Donovan left, he looked at Lin Sheng, "Well, you can go now."

"We mother and son are penniless and have nowhere to go. Can we stay at the police station for a while until someone comes to pick us up? Scotland Yard has an old case that hasn't been solved, and I think I can help, as return."

What a pity.

"How about giving your police station a free upgrade of the firewall?"

Lestrade: "..." He felt that if she was left idle, Scotland Yard would be turned upside down, so he turned around and brought over a stack of files, which he intended to show to Sherlock.

Lestrade also spontaneously poured her a cup of coffee and two pieces of sugar.After he finished this by himself, he felt that Jiongjiu was insane, and it was all Sherlock's fault!

Lin Sheng waved to the inspector.

Theodore curiously wanted to taste Mommy's coffee, but Lin Sheng quickly took it away, "You can't drink it." She pushed the coffee cup away and hugged her precious son in her arms, "Mr. Before picking us up, let's find another case to solve, okay?"

Sherlock was called back to 221b Baker Street by Mrs. Holmes. He looked at his phone without looking up: "You should have made a call beforehand. There hasn't been any musicals that suit your preferences recently in the West End of London. What are you doing here? ?”

Mrs. Holmes gave him a reproachful look: "We miss you, come and see you, Xiali."

"Well, the "Malburgh" programming language, it seems that this case can be solved." Sherlock threw the phone aside and lay on his back on the sofa.

The Holmes couple are used to this kind of attitude of the younger son. Mrs. Holmes went on and on about who's son got married, and whoever had a grandson... Even Sherlock's roommate has a fiancée.

Sherlock heard her babbling: "Go to Mycroft." That's what a brother should use.Sherlock heard the sound of parking downstairs, "Here comes the fat man."

Thinking of Lin Sheng and Theodore, Sherlock immediately regained his energy and sat up from the sofa.After McCoff came up, he threatened him secretly: "If you don't give me the information, I will tell Mommy, in fact, 'you' are not only married but also have a son. I took a picture of Theodore, Mommy I will definitely believe it."

McCoff confronted his younger brother for a few seconds, "fine."

Sherlock won McCoff for himself with a bright smile, and McCoff returned to his usual expression. He couldn't tell that Sherlock had threatened him with a photo just now, and he had to release the state secrets. The information was given to him.

Sherlock stared at him for a few seconds, snorted, sat on the sofa, picked up his phone and pressed it.

When Mycroft coaxed the Holmes couple downstairs, Sherlock suddenly said to his brother: "Ha, I am more popular with children than you! Mycroft, you should really go on a diet and take care of your increasingly sparse The amount of hair, wearing a wig or hair transplant or something, haha."

"Thank you for your concern." Mycroft showed a frightening smirk, and went downstairs with a black umbrella. When he reached the door, he could still hear Sherlock's laughter, and McCoff's cheeks twitched.

On the other hand, Miss Secretary was ordered to come to Scotland Yard to pick him up.

Lin Sheng put down the case file in his hand, and left the rest to Sherlock to solve.

After getting into the car, Theodore said to Lin Sheng, "Mum, Maeve hasn't changed at all."

The secretary, whose real name was called out all of a sudden, looked up in shock, and met Theodore's curious gaze, and she immediately lowered her head to look at her BlackBerry.

"Oh——" Theodore made a disappointed voice, "Mommy, when can I see Papa?"

"Well, how do you want me to answer you?" Lin Sheng put his arms around him, "I hope it will be as soon as possible, Theodore."

The secretary tried her best to focus her attention on the BlackBerry instead of letting herself listen to the conversation between their mother and child and make associations.

On the way, they also made a detour to a restaurant to pick up the dessert that Lin Sheng had ordered, signed by the secretary - her boss liked the desserts of this restaurant very much.

All the way to mi5, Lin Sheng subconsciously took out her card, and a second before swiping it, her hand paused and put the card back, "It's better not to be so ostentatious." Her card is definitely not recognized here , As for Theodore, he has always been a faceless person.

Miss Secretary really has a lot of questions.

After entering the elevator, Lin Sheng asked the secretary, "Has my laptop been returned?"

"Yes, ms."

"I'm already married." Lin Sheng felt that it was really uncomfortable to face a familiar environment but to be replaced by both familiar and unfamiliar people.She is really not interested in parallel universe travel or anything now.

Mycroft was already waiting for them in the office, and that was the worst part.Not only Theodore, but even Lin Sheng resisted a little, and they were speechless for a while.

Miss secretary withdrew tactfully.

Theodore held the dessert box and glared at McCoff with puffy faces. He and Papa used to eat desserts in the office behind their mother's back.He didn't like this man who looked exactly like Papa at all, and his eyes were not the same as Papa's at all.

"Papa, I want papa!" Theodore was very obedient, but he just wanted papa, so he couldn't help crying.

Lin Sheng couldn't care less about looking around McCoff's office now, picked up his precious son, and sat on the sofa in front of the fireplace to coax him.

Mycroft originally thought children were annoying, especially when he was crying, but it was strange that he didn't frown in disgust, and then he felt his heart was twisted, soft and sore, this is too abnormal .

He is too used to controlling everything, and feelings are undoubtedly the most difficult to be controlled. It is precisely because of this that McCoff has never considered marriage, nor has he thought that there will be a wife who will be with him for a lifetime, or even blood. child.Therefore, it is really hard for McCoff to imagine how his self in another world made up his mind to give his feelings and hand them over to another person.

While McCoff was reflecting, Theodore stopped crying, but nestled in Lin Sheng's arms, chubby hand tightly clutching her collar, sobbing softly.

"I'm sorry, Theodore." Lin Sheng felt that this trip through parallel time and space was probably due to her past.But this time there was no warning, and she brought Theodore along with her. She still kept a trace of anticipation that it would take so long here, and only a few minutes would pass on Mycroft's side.Otherwise, it was really hard for her to imagine how Mycroft would react if she and Theodore just disappeared out of thin air.

"Give you."

Lin Sheng raised her head and looked at McCoff who handed her a handkerchief with a complicated expression, "Thank you." Before she wanted him to stay away, McCoff had already consciously walked away.

Lin Sheng wiped away the tears from Theodore's face, and ran them down his back over and over again. After a while, he fell asleep in Mummy's arms with the traces of tears.

"I'm sorry," Lin Sheng said to Mycroft silently, "Theodore usually spends most of his time with Mycroft, and he is very dependent on his papa." Lin Sheng never had a normal childhood of the same age, she and Neither of Ms Turner's mother-daughter relationships was normal.As for Mycroft, well, he thought he lived in a world full of goldfish. It didn't get better until Sherlock was born, and his childhood really wasn't normal.After Theodore was born, perhaps to make up for themselves, the two of them devoted a lot of effort to Theodore...

Mycroft's eyes slid over Theodore's flushed face, and he sighed inwardly, which he could naturally see.

Theodore slept for half an hour and woke up rubbing his eyes.

"Are you hungry?"

"Ah."

Now that the desserts bought will not be wasted, Theodore looked at the desserts in front of him, held his cheeks for a while, and then ran over to ask McCoff who was sitting behind the desk: "I papa like it." Do you like the desserts that Mommy and I bought back? Well, I want to know what is different between you and Papa." When he said this, he unconsciously looked at McCoff's hairline.

Lin Sheng lowered his head and suppressed a smile.

After all, Mykoff is Mykoff. If he wants to, there is nothing he can't do, such as getting someone's favor.It's just that the British government has even put out psychological warfare against a baby who is less than two years old. Isn't it a bit bullying?

Soon, Theodore was not so resistant to McCoff, and had dessert with McCoff happily.

After Theodore finished eating the amount of desserts he could eat every day, he said to Mycroft, "You really are not my papa."

"Ok?"

"Mommy won't watch Papa eat so many desserts, we all eat behind Mommy's back," Theodore quietly looked at Lin Sheng who was sitting on the sofa typing on the keyboard, and clapped his little hands mysteriously at the same time. "Mommy would know about it, though," McCoff said.

Mycroft put down the fork in his hand, wiped his mouth, and said in his usual tone: "It seems that your parents are very loving."

Lin Sheng couldn't help interjecting: "Although thank you very much for your sincere praise, it feels very weird, Mr. Holmes. If possible, can you take us to Pamel Street? Since our starting point is there."

"of course."

"Thank you, Uncle Holmes." Theodore patted Mycroft's big hand with his chubby hand, and said sincerely.

Mycroft's expression was a little subtle. After he saw off their mother and son at midnight, he felt lost for a moment, but soon that emotion disappeared. He poured himself a glass of wine, sat on the sofa and closed his eyes. repose.

In another world, Mycroft, who returned home from work at one o'clock in the morning, was hugged by his son's thigh as soon as he entered the house.

"Papa, it's really you!"

Mycroft hung up the black umbrella in his hand, bent down and picked up his son, "Why do you say that?"

Theodore put his arms around his neck, and enthusiastically smeared Mycroft's face with saliva, "I dreamed that Papa didn't love me anymore, and I cried so sadly."

Mycroft met his wife's sincere eyes and said slowly, "It seems we have something to talk about."
