Chapter 78 The Last Greeting

"Gladstone is the first person to notice the plan, he knows me too well; Mycroft is the second, he is not only a smart man, but also has the intelligence agencies of the empire as eyes and ears; as for you, it is the third One." In Disraeli's words, there was a bit of embarrassment, but also a little appreciation.

"But frankly speaking, although our reasoning is heading in the right direction, there is still a big gap from the real details. Why do you want to tell us all about it?" Di Renjie had an answer in his heart, but He still asked the question.

"Probably because of a show-off mentality." Disraeli raised his eyebrows slightly and said, "I must admit that you are the most outstanding young people I have ever met, so after I learned that the plan was finally successful, I endured it." I can't help but share it with you.

"Of course, on the other hand, it's also because I don't have much time. If I were young, I would definitely keep this secret. But now that I have half a foot in the cemetery, I don't want to worry about it anymore."

"I see." Disraeli's answer was in line with Di Renjie's expectations, but he still said sincerely: "Thank you for your answer and everything just now. This really solved many doubts that Sherlock and I had."

"You're welcome, but I would like to ask, what do you guys think about this matter?" Disraeli slightly adjusted his sitting posture, obviously he was a little concerned about the two people's answers.

"I don't know how to evaluate it. For me, this matter has surpassed the category of crime." Sherlock showed a embarrassed look.

"I think, from the point of view of an Englishman, I have no objection to your position; but from my own point of view, I do not approve of this assassination." Di Renjie expressed his opinion.

After listening to the thoughts of the two, Disraeli nodded thoughtfully, and after a moment of silence, he spoke again: "You are right, assassination is not a good method, but everything is over, even if It might have been a mistake, but it's over."

"So now let's talk about the next thing, as I said before, I appreciate you all, but unfortunately I don't have much time left, but I believe that with the help of Mycroft, you will also have a good time. But just in case, I still want to give you a gift." Disraeli said, and took out two special gold coins engraved with the head of a refined man from his bosom.

"These are two commemorative coins presented to me by a friend of mine. They can be 'exchanged' with anyone or anything when necessary, and the objects of exchange are not limited. It can be an item, or It can be an idea, a rule, or an opportunity, and the upper limit of exchange is the fourth level. I think they may be able to provide you with some help in the future when you encounter a crisis."

After Disraeli finished speaking, he stretched out his hand and handed the two gold coins to Di Renjie and Sherlock, but they didn't take them immediately.

"Please don't refuse, just treat it as my last investment in the future of the British Empire." Disraeli showed a relieved smile.
-
On March 1881, 3, the news of the assassination and death of Tsar Alexander II of the Russian Empire swept across the land of Europe like a tsunami, and the aftermath was like a storm blowing to all parts of the world, disturbing the hearts of political leaders from all over the world.

In this epic political upheaval, the tense European situation was like a wave crashing on a cliff. At first, it was huge, but at the end, it flew and shattered like a dream bubble. Looking back at this moment, Looking at it, there was an absurd feeling that the previous turmoil was nothing but a huge fantasy.

But everyone really knows that all of this has actually happened, just like the death of the tsar, it has become an established fact, and the political impact based on this fact is also in a state of panic. It is happening subtly and subtly on the quiet international political arena.

For the Russians, the power vacuum left by the death of the old tsar will be succeeded by the new tsar, but whether the young tsar will continue his father's reforms, only the gods know at this time;
For the Ottomans, the originally tense Russian-Turkish border gained a respite, and both the Russian Black Sea Army and the Caucasus Army retracted their fists.

For the French, they don't have to worry about the Russians' southward expansion for the time being, and the Republic can still watch the situation in Europe.

For the Germans, the brief stifling of the ambitions of their uneasy "ally" the Russian Empire allowed Bismarck once again to maintain the peace he wanted, albeit a brutal one.

For the British Empire, whether it is the prime minister, the cabinet or the royal family, they can finally sleep comfortably.

But these have nothing to do with Di Renjie and Sherlock who live at 221B Baker Street for the time being. After visiting Disraeli, the two returned home and lived the ordinary life full of rhythm and regularity.

"Gululu," the hot water just boiled was poured into the teacup, and pieces of delicate and small black tea leaves floated on the water, ups and downs, like the epitome of life in this era.

Taking an iron strainer to separate the tea, Di Renjie picked up the teacup comfortably and blew on it. After it was a little cooler, he narrowed his eyes and took a sip.

"Huh," he breathed out comfortably. There is nothing more relaxing than warming tea in winter.

Since the Crown case happened, the cases followed one after another, and the truth was wrapped in layers. Speaking of which, he hadn't enjoyed such an afternoon tea time without any psychological burden for a long time.

For Di Renjie, this case did not allow him to reap the brilliance of good fortune that is closely related to his strength, but he did not take it to heart - after all, no matter how harsh the standard is, his promotion speed is still the same. Some are too good.

In addition, it is hard work to advance from the second level to the third level, and you need to find your own way from the third level to the fourth level. Therefore, Di Renjie thinks that he can take a little longer and make good use of the existing ones. Polish the level, tamp the foundation, and then consider the issue of promotion.

You know, until today, he has not fully grasped the ability bestowed by his current real name words. After all, the only thing he can fully grasp at present is a "passenger across time and space". , To say that he has a half-knowledge is a compliment.

But beyond the extraordinary level, the Crown case brought Di Renjie unprecedented gains.

The first is the hush money that McCoff gave him. Although it did not serve as a seal, Di Renjie did not intend to let McCoff "break his promise". After all, McCoff provided him with more than just a job. At the same time, it gave him a window to understand and intervene in this world.

In addition, perhaps due to the influence of Sherlock, Di Renjie unknowingly found that he could pick up Mycroft's wool with peace of mind
Sure enough, those who are close to vermilion are red and those who are close to ink are black.

Secondly, Di Renjie and Sherlock also obtained a bao biao. Of course, Francis in the pocket watch state is probably not the real body of the sage, and he must not be able to display the true strength of a sage, but Di Renjie estimates that Francis The strength of the brand pocket watch is probably between the fourth level and the third level, which is quite enough for the two who are still relatively new to the extraordinary world.

In the end, he and Sherlock each received a gold coin that could save their lives. Since Disraeli claimed that the gold coin has the power of the fourth level, it is estimated that when necessary, this careful gold coin can play a role beyond that of Francis. More importantly, there is only one pocket watch, and it is not easy to carry (with a baby), but gold coins can be carried by each person, which is not too convenient.

In short, for Di Renjie and Sherlock, this case has brought them a lot of rewards.

"Sherlock, John, come and taste the freshly baked pumpkin pie." Mrs. Hudson's words interrupted Di Renjie's thoughts. He put down his teacup and was about to reply when he heard Sherlock who hurried out of the bedroom shout loudly :

"My dear Mrs. Hudson, let me have a bite first, John is a big eater."

[Big eater? 】Di Renjie glanced at his stomach suspiciously and patted it, expressing that he did not see the familiar scene from his previous life.

So he couldn't help but laugh, and started to chase downstairs: "Sherlock, the detective is going to tell the evidence!"
