Chapter 293 "Miss Nightingale!"

The muscles all over Watson's body tensed suddenly!

He bit his lip hard, and without controlling the force, he bit his lip directly. The pain made him sure that he was not dreaming or hearing wrongly, and then he suddenly froze in place.

Watson is a person who has an absolute pursuit of beautiful things. This pursuit accounts for 80% of the meaning of his life. He likes gentlemanly demeanor, exquisite food, paying attention to the matching of clothes, the cleanliness of the living environment, and even being intimate with others. During the long conversation, they paid great attention to the sense of ceremony. For a grown man, this is indeed a bit petty, but Watson is like this, quiet, polite, and even feels like a lady.

He likes the element of 'beauty'.

Miss Nightingale is undoubtedly the most beautiful person in the world. When Sherlock met Watson for the first time, his portrait hung in his office.

"Miss Nightingale?" He repeated the name in confusion, and then suddenly reacted and glared at Sherlock: "Why didn't you tell me earlier!!"

"Huh? You didn't even ask." Sherlock spread his hands.

"If I don't ask, you won't tell?!" Watson seemed a little nervous: "That's Miss Nightingale! Don't you know her status in every doctor's heart? Don't you know she is the world's most important person?" The most beautiful person?!"

As he spoke, Watson adjusted his collar, and then he became more and more flustered when he thought that this dress was not newly washed, and it did not match his tie very well.

Seeing him like this, Sherlock waved his hand casually: "Okay, okay, don't pay too much attention to appearance. According to Miss Nightingale's beauty, as long as she looked in the mirror when washing her face this morning, then you will be fine. You dress yourself up to look fancy, and she probably thinks it's just so-so. Well, I think your outfit is pretty good. Besides, her personality is very casual, and she's even easier to get along with than Mrs. Hudson."

"How do you know? You've never seen her." Watson ignored Sherlock at all and began to tie his cuffs carefully.

"." Sherlock seemed to have discovered something suddenly and fell silent.

"Why didn't you speak?" Watson asked.

"." Sherlock continued to hesitate, and then cautiously asked, "Didn't I tell you?"

"tell me what?"

"I know Miss Nightingale."

"I know that there is no one in the entire empire who doesn't know her."

"I mean, I met Miss Nightingale, I have her personal phone number, I saved her life, these things, I never told you???"

"???"

"???"

The two of them were suddenly stunned, looking into each other's eyes, with a hint of embarrassment and shock in the silence.

The encounter between Shylock and Nightingale is a very delicate matter.

At that time, he was stuck on the dividing line between the first and second stages of being a contractor. His body was constantly collapsing, and he was in danger of belching at any moment.

That guy Moriarty introduced Miss Nightingale to him on a personal basis.

In fact, no matter from any angle, this introduction cannot create any intersection between Miss Nightingale and Sherlock. It is just the most ordinary patient-patient relationship.But who would have thought that several airships would just fall from the sky!
In that place where gas explosions were everywhere and countless blocks were roaring and collapsing, Sherlock carried Nightingale and her spoiled servant and ran all the way, and then escaped from the dangerous area.

Obviously, Shylock saved Nightingale's life.

After that, Sherlock desperately tried his best to kill a third-level great contractor, and his body was finally in a state of death. Nightingale arrived in time and narrowly saved his life. .

This is a real life-long friendship.

Sherlock didn't tell anyone about this matter. Well, actually it's not like he didn't tell it. The main thing is that after such a big incident, no one would care about the role a detective played in it, let alone no one. I believe that an unknown detective in lower London will have any interaction with the great Miss Nightingale.

After that, Watson was chased by a member of the Pope's family. In short, all kinds of coincidences came together. The last thing that happened more than a year ago, Watson still doesn't know about it.

A few minutes later, Watson sorted out his mentality and followed Sherlock into the villa area.

In the shade of greenery, a three-story building appeared in front of us. It looked very quiet, and the air looked extremely fresh surrounded by countless green plants. This is unique in London, a steam city that has been shrouded in fog for hundreds of years. Here, it is very rare.

However, both Sherlock and Watson were aware that there were at least five secret sentries surrounding the villa, and at this moment, at least seven or eight pairs of eyes were staring at them.

Of course, Miss Nightingale was no ordinary person, and this level of protection did not surprise these two people.

As they got closer and closer to the courtyard gate in front of the villa, some people in casual clothes came out from behind the shade of several surrounding trees and stopped in front of the two of them. It could be seen that these people all had guns on their waists. .

"I'm sorry, this is private property, please leave." The leader warned.

Watson smiled: "It seems that these people don't know that we are coming today."

"It's understandable. According to the original plan, we should have come here with the person named Natasha, but we were picked up by Moran halfway. There was a deviation in the time estimate."

However, Shylock did not announce his name in front of these people, because he did not know the status of this group of people in the court, in case some of them were qualified to know Augustine It would be embarrassing for the person who was responsible for the murder of the Emperor to shout out the name Sherlock Holmes, and then frighten the group of people so much that they all draw their guns and shoot at him.

"Both of us were invited by the Inquisition to come here to take charge of Miss Nightingale's safety."

He explained tentatively.

However, the people in front of them still had no intention of getting out of the way.

This is also normal. If two people randomly show up and say that they are responsible for someone's safety and are let in, then these security personnel will stop working.

But Sherlock didn't want to waste any more time explaining, or waiting for these people to contact their superiors, or waiting at the door for Natasha or Hopkins to come all the way over.

Therefore, he used a gentler, safer and more convenient method:

"Miss Nightingale!" Sherlock shouted directly to the inner courtyard of the villa: "Can you let us in?!"
