Sherlock: "......"

He looked at Mia speechlessly, and finally couldn't help asking, "How did you know that my leg was injured?"

He was very sure of one thing, that he didn't reveal any flaws while walking. In fact, if the woman in front of him hadn't hit his leg, he wouldn't have known that his leg, which didn't hurt before, hadn't healed yet!

So does this guy have a perspective eye? He can actually see that there is something wrong with his leg through a layer of clothes?

Sherlock looked at the woman in front of him, and his heart quickly analyzed things related to her.

When he saw the other party in Faulkner's territory just now, he deduced that this woman was not someone related to Faulkner, but an outsider. But at that time he didn't know that he would encounter such a thing, and he didn't analyze it carefully. Now if he observes carefully, he will find that there are many contradictions in the other party.

The first is the hands.

This is not a pair of very beautiful hands. There

    Anne didn't want to interfere with her daughter's life, but things have been really turbulent recently. Does anyone remember that her husband died less than a month ago, and the murderer hasn't been found yet? The continuous stimulation made her want to control herself and not be so anxious, but if this kind of thing could be controlled, there wouldn't be so many mental problems in the world. "Thank God, you're back safely!" Anne's tight nerves finally relaxed a little when she saw Mia coming in. "I went to the dock and bought some fresh fish to make soup." Mia put down the basket in her hand and raised two fresh cod with her other hand. "I didn't meet Tom today, so I went by myself." The boss's son Tom, who I met in the grocery store before, has become their supplier? Specifically, various fish and chickens. Since Mia asked him to help find chickens for stewing chicken soup in Chinatown, he seemed to have opened a magical door. He also asked someone to make a list for Mia to help

    Putting aside the distance and language issues between India and Afghanistan, the handwriting on the two ingredient lists was very familiar to her. It was exactly the same as her husband's, with no difference, even some small writing habits, and it was Arthur's handwriting at a glance. But why didn't he take out this ingredient list before? Anne was confused for a moment. Her husband had been home for four years, not four days. Wasn't this long enough for him to use this formula in his own store? Mia looked at her like this and was also confused, "Is there something wrong?" She flipped through all the manuscripts and letters left by Arthur in the house, and practiced several times before getting the current result. It can't be said that it is 100% the same, but as long as it is not directly put into the machine, she is confident that the human eye can't find any difference. Although Anne's eyesight is very good, it should not have reached this level, right? "...... I just don't un

    "Officer Derek?" Mia hurried over to help Annie, who was still unconscious, down. "What happened?"Annie was unconscious, her hands and feet were hanging unnaturally, and Perry had a blank face like a wandering soul, which looked a little strange."………………Let's check Mrs. Colette's foot injury first." Derek looked exhausted, and after putting Annie down, he sat down to catch his breath.At this time, Mia noticed that the clothes on his arm that was blocked by Annie were stained with blood.Looking at his tired expression, she decided to take care of Annie's legs first.Lifting Annie's skirt, she saw that Annie's ankle was swollen so much that she could hardly take off her shoes, and her calves were also swollen.* : "......."I don't know what happened. She could get injured like this just by going out.Speechlessly taking off Annie's shoes, and making sure that there was no problem with her bones, Mia went to find some herbs to reduce swelling and blood stasis and crushed them to appl

    Mia finally had time to spend time with Annie after she had cleaned up the table, and learned about the specific situation during the day. "I have already discussed the supply with Susan. If the first batch of goods is good, she will continue to purchase from Colette Herbal Store in the future. We don't have to deliver the goods ourselves, they will come to pick them up." The thing that Annie was most grateful for today was that she had negotiated the business with the owner of the brothel before the terrible man went crazy, and did not let the business be delayed. Otherwise, she would have to negotiate the business with her daughter in her current state! Thinking of what happened in the brothel, Annie shuddered and her face began to turn pale. "It was so terrible. The police opened the wooden warehouse, and the man went crazy, waving a knife and slashing everywhere. When I fainted, he had already killed two people!" If Annie knew that there was a symptom of PTSD, she would definit

    What light?She looked at Alaire in a daze. She couldn't say about other people, but she didn't feel any supernatural power from the gypsy witch in front of her, and it was impossible for her to discover the existence of the Scepter of Light.And even if the person on the other side was a genuine witch with extraordinary abilities, hiding her strength and discovering the Scepter of Light, the Scepter of Light was not the Scepter of Sherlock Holmes, so what did it have to do with investigating the case?Mia had two black lines hanging on her head, and was speechless about the nonsense of the lady in front of her. The so-called good reputation is simply a rumor that she is very good at talking, understands the situation, and can grasp the psychological state of the customer, right?But the money has been spent, and Ms. Alaire didn't charge a second time, so she pretended not to see it. After all, she is a very likely partner, so she still has to give her some face.Thinking of this, Mia

    As time entered the end of the year, various cases in Whitechapel occurred more and more frequently, and the previous unsolved cases made the atmosphere in Whitechapel more solemn.Especially when the murderer who killed Reverend Clement was not caught and was suspected of committing more crimes, Anne strictly required Mia to return home before sunset and not stay outside for more time."God bless, can't Whitechapel be a little calmer?" Anne looked at the report in the newspaper, holding her chest in great pain?? This is a new problem she has developed after Arthur's death. She feels uncomfortable when she hears about the death of a person.Mia doesn't have any good way to deal with it. Psychological problems are not so easy to solve. Anne's problem is at least not like battlefield PTSD that hurts others and herself. It will always heal with the passage of time.

    Although he was known for his ferocity and strength on the battlefield, Derek was still an ordinary person after all. In the end, he was hit on the head by someone with a stick in the chaos and fell to the ground.Mia kicked a burly man away and gave a right hook to a man next to him: "…………"Sensing the sound of wind coming from behind, she lowered her body, turned around and gave the other party an elbow, rushed to Derek's side and stretched out her finger.Fortunately, the strong pulse under the skin confirmed that the man was still alive. Only then did Mia finally have the energy to pull apart his hair to look at Derek's injuries. There was no bleeding on the outside, but it was hard to say what was wrong inside... "Miss Colette?" A familiar voice suddenly sounded. Mia looked up and saw an equally familiar face. Wasn't it Dr. Eric Kleinte? What was this man doing here? "I think you need a little help?" Eric's eyes swept over Derek who was lying on the ground, and the stick in his h

    "Ah?" Derek was a little confused by what Anne said, and felt that there were more heads in front of him. What could happen to him? This kind of problem has happened before. Wouldn't it be enough to just lie down in the trench? At most, the accuracy is a little bad when shooting at the wooden warehouse, but there are so many people on the battlefield. As long as you don't deviate a few meters away, you can still hit people... "Officer Derek, you should stay here temporarily until you recover." Anne said worriedly, "Let Mia go to the police station to help ask for leave." Officer Derek was so seriously injured because of her daughter. Anne felt that no matter what, she couldn't drive him out at this time, otherwise it would be too ungrateful. How can she ask for help from others in the future? Mia was asked to help ask for leave for Derek, and looked sideways. She really deserved to be the good person Anne Colette in the Ripper Street. It was refreshing enough. But it is right to

If it doesn't work, then he can only use hypnosis."Oh, what kind of fate do I have?" Mia sighed and made a schedule in the study, feeling that she was really unlucky. Why did she always encounter such pitfalls?"What kind of fate?" Arthur, who had just been tortured by the teacher, floated in. He was shocked when he heard Mia's words. What happened again?Just got the news from Mr. Holmes that their youngest uncle also died in Africa. Arthur was shocked to death, and now he is a little allergic to all the wind and grass in the outside world."...A not very reliable guest came to the door."

    Her tone was serious, but Lionel's focus was on her last sentence. What did he mean by he knew nothing about the power of nature? Not only would he die, but even the people who followed him would die? Is there anyone in this world who knows the power of nature better than him?He is very professional, okay!Mr. Bresmons, who felt that his professionalism was slandered, looked unhappy, "Do you know what professionalism is? If I say I am the second in sports today, who dares to rank ahead of me?"Come on, he is a well-known athlete. Do you know how many people's eyes he will attract every time he takes action?You admit that you are second, but no one dares to admit that you are the first?Mia was stunned when she heard this, and couldn't help but hit Mr. Bresmons from head to toe. Finally, her eyes fell on his shoulder and sneered, "Just you? Is your shoulder injury healed?

    Wait! Old Lady Leamington was stunned. Suddenly she remembered something and grabbed her maid’s hand. “What happened to Patricia and Catherine?” She had a horrified thought in her mind. Why didn’t the general go to find Broussard’s two children? Could it be that…………… The maid was also stunned. Patricia and Catherine? Master Broussard’s two married daughters? What happened to them? Oh oh oh oh, that’s right, they never showed up in this matter from beginning to end! Could they be implicated together? The maid took a breath. No, weren’t these two people in England? How could they go to Africa? “Go and send them a letter!” Old Lady Leamington shouted with shaking hands and a horrified face, and her voice broke. So after another round of chaos, the people sent out brought back the news, “Mrs. Sledge and Mrs. Matt set off for Africa after receiving Master Broussard’s letter, and there is still no news.” Old Lady Leamington rolled her eyes and fainted.

    "I helped her so much, so I deserve to be treated well next time I go to Scotland to chase a hurricane, right?" Lionel said naturally, not feeling that there was anything wrong with him. This is the bastard who wants to kill her brother and take the position of earl. Now that such a big problem has been solved, isn't it normal to provide some help? "Are you sick?" Mars looked at Lionel with a look of a lunatic. He spent so much time and energy, and asked him to help keep an eye on the place, and the result was to find logistics for himself abroad? It's more credible to say that you want to chase people! "Watch your tone, dear Mr. Pellesena, you are insulting a great project to explore the truth of the world." Lionel said unhappily, feeling insulted. What is sick? You can say I'm a jerk, but you can't insult my dreams and pursuits! When Lionel thought of his efforts in pursuing the truth of the world and challenging the limits of human beings, he suddenly burst out with an indom

    Frieda smiled happily. What could be happier than getting other people's wealth into her own hands? "When I get the money back, I will definitely hold a grand ball!" She waved her fan and squinted her eyes happily. She had loved passionately when she was young, but now she even has grandchildren, and her love with her husband has long disappeared. What's left is the pursuit of luxurious life and beautiful flesh. But how can she pursue these things when she is in Africa? Fortunately, she will soon be able to return to London, the political center of the world, and live the life she really should live! Broussard was also smiling, "You can hold a grand ball if you want. At that time, we will have whatever we want, and the lights in Rosemary Manor will stay on all night!"

    What he thinks has nothing to do with Mia. There are so many things going on in Scotland. How can he have time to pay attention to irrelevant people? No matter what project it is, the side effect of rapid expansion is that there is a shortage of manpower, and the same is true for Luwos Manor. Before winter, thanks to Mia's spending, Luwos finally completed the repair of all infrastructure. The various furnishings, artworks, and decorations that were previously piled up in the warehouse can finally see the light of day and appear in the mansion. By the way, the empty warehouses and cellars are also filled with enough food to survive several winters. However, considering the problem of Luwos's growing population, these several winters are still to be discussed. "There are seven people coming from London this time. They are all retired from the battlefield and entered the police station. Together with the local staff, the number of security guards in the entire manor has exceeded 30.

    He hesitated again and again, but finally succumbed to reality. The main reason was that he couldn't delay any longer. If the money didn't arrive quickly, he couldn't afford to delay! Since the seller compromised, the buyer would certainly have no problem. Mia quickly prepared the money and jewelry, and asked the lawyer to bring Lord Desborough, which gave him a big shock. "..." Lord Desborough felt a little sorry when he saw the jewelry inlaid with large diamonds. Putting aside his rubbish vision and indecisive character in business, this lord is actually a person with aesthetic vision, so he was particularly shocked when he saw the jewelry in front of him at this time, "So ugly!" He controlled his mouth and blurted out, and the people around him twitched their eyes. Who can see that these jewels are so ugly without any aesthetic value? But did they say it? Did they say it? Is this something that can be said openly in front of everyone? "......My Lord, let's discuss the value

    Although the wind is strong and cold, Scotland has a long coastline with the Atlantic Ocean in the west and north and the North Sea in the east, and is rich in products. Not only seafood, but also agricultural products and animal husbandry products. Scotland, with its small population and large land area, plays a good role as a resource provider. The British Empire provides a lot of food and uses its own rich mineral resources to help Britain expand. In short, whether it is seafood, land products or mineral products, Scotland's resources are very rich, and there is even oil here! And the geographical location is also good, with easy access to all directions. If you live here and don't buy a dock and run it well, Mia feels that it is a shame for herself. "There is a dock that is intended to be sold, but the price is overflowing." Bol frowned and looked at the notebook in his hand. He was not good at this. "According to the investigation, the owner of this dock has always wanted to

    Located in the north of England, the wind here is too strong, and the place is empty. If you don't take care of the heating and other basic facilities, the winter will probably be miserable. "How is the mansion in London?" Mia asked Paul, picking up the property list and turning a page. The three brothers Maurice, Emeril, and Dominic left too much property. With the things left by Elizabeth, Mia's current net worth can be said to be comparable to the wealth under the name of the Earl of Lymington, but it is indeed richer than most nobles. To put it in a distant way, the wealth of the Viscount Bridgerton family, who had met Arthur and Derek in London before, was just a child in front of her, and it was not worth mentioning at all. However, the property left by the individual was too complicated, which was also a problem. Even after arriving in Scotland, Mia did not really deal with all these things. Movable property such as jewelry, books, wine, artworks, weapons, furniture, stock
