Chapter 1018 The Second Sherlock
Under the guidance of Xi Tiansi, Aiwass and Yasen moved quickly in the Hall of Mirrors.

It's not running, nor is it flying.

They just followed Xi Tiansi and walked slowly forward, but the world around them changed with every step.

They seemed to be shooting some kind of music video, and there was even some dancing piano music.

After just a dozen steps, they arrived at a room that was almost the same as the previous one.

Sherlock's posture was exactly the same as before - he was holding his forehead, thinking seriously.

"Please look," Xi Tiansi extended his hand elegantly, "the person you are looking for is right here."

Sherlock suddenly woke up when he heard the sound.

He frowned and looked over.

After seeing that the people coming were Aiwass and Yasen, he breathed a sigh of relief.

But Sherlock not only did not stand up to greet the two, but leaned back on the chair, and said calmly and melodiously: "Long time no see, gentlemen."

It was as if he had been certain from the very beginning that Aiwass would come to rescue him - and would definitely find him.

He believed it so firmly that there wouldn't be any surprises or accidents at all.

He just stood up politely and sincerely and saluted gracefully. His calm eyes became brighter and the corners of his mouth curved slightly. “Thank you very much for coming to save me.”

——This is indeed the reaction that a real Sherlock should make.

Aiwass breathed a sigh of relief.

Seeing Sherlock after a long time, Arsene should have had a lot to say.

It's just that I've already said the most emotional part once, and now if I repeat it again based on my memory, it will feel a bit like reciting a line. It's a bit more awkward for no reason.

"Thanks to Xi Tiansi for leading the way, otherwise it would be really hard to find."

Aiwass nodded in the direction of Xi Tiansi and carefully looked at this "real Sherlock": "It seems... you haven't suffered any injustice. Mycroft thought you were going to be silenced."

"After all, I'm working in a dream, and even my meals are in the physical world. How can I be wronged?"

Sherlock sighed, "My brother is always too worried about me. The only harm is that I have been doing nothing but eating and sleeping recently. In order to supplement the nutrition of my brain, I have been eating high-calorie and high-nutrition food. As a result, I have gained nearly five kilograms - I think this can be regarded as a work-related injury."

"Work... instead of captivity?"

"It's house arrest at best. But if this level is considered imprisonment, then everyone who goes to work in the company is imprisoned."

Sherlock sighed helplessly: "After all, I volunteered to take this job - I didn't expect it to be so troublesome. But it's okay for me. Such a challenging job is still quite interesting, and my boss respects me very much. The only problem is that my boss doesn't seem to want me to leave work, and he doesn't allow me to contact the outside world... Otherwise, I wouldn't have written to you for help until now."

"It's quite normal. It's difficult for ordinary workers to go through the resignation procedures. Especially when they can't find anyone to hand over the work."

Aiwass commented sharply: "But not letting you go during the holidays is a bit too much. Is he afraid that you won't come back? Then let me guarantee you?"

Hearing this, Sherlock glanced at Aiwass subtly.

He glanced at Yassen again and asked in a statement that was almost certain: "Aivas knows his mother's last name - you told him."

Sherlock knows Aiwass very well.

When this guy was not yet the Minister without Portfolio, he was provoked by Lloyd's and his first reaction was to take down Lloyd's; his maid was hired to be murdered by a founder, so he simply killed the founder; his sister was targeted by the people of Noble Red, so he simply killed all the senior management of Noble Red.

Although he always smiles and looks gentle, Aiwass is unexpectedly ruthless and impatient when dealing with things. If killing someone can solve the problem smoothly without leaving any trouble, he will usually do it decisively.

Now he has become stronger... But when he encountered this case, he did not immediately choose to kill the Duke of Vendome's family... One of the reasons may be that he and Yassen have become good friends, and he has to consider his friend's feelings...

Another reason was probably that he knew his true background - and that Anne de Vendôme, who was suspected to be his mother, was now in the Duke of Vendôme's mansion.

That's why Aiwass was patient and used his brain to solve the problem from the root instead of just using the simplest method... that is, "I don't understand, forget it, just kill them anyway."

This is just like Sherlock's previous evaluation of Aiwass: this vixen has a good brain, but she's just too lazy to use it.

But this laziness...is not because Aiwass is simple-minded, but because he always has a backup plan, which is killing people.

Sherlock had previously done a psychological profile on Aiwass.

Although Aiwass is a kind and gentle person with a sense of justice, responsibility and spirit of sacrifice, he has a certain degree of moral deficiency in the aspect of "the weight of life". It is as if Aiwass never thinks that killing is something important and unforgivable... It is better to say that Aiwass is actively looking for "reasons to kill".

Sherlock believes that Aiwass is often deliberately looking for trouble.

It's like a beautiful girl carrying a sword and walking alone in an alley with poor security at night - her purpose is to kill someone who has bad intentions towards her.

Although he didn't know why, Sherlock clearly felt that Aiwass had a desire to kill. But this desire was not indiscriminate killing... He had no interest in innocent people and the weak, but he was full of "initiative" towards those who were hostile, especially those who were powerful.

Just like a spider, laying traps in the void to kill mosquitoes and flies.

——As if he could gain some irreplaceable benefit from this hunting behavior.

Only in this way can we explain the logic of Aiwass's behavior, which seemed to deliberately make things worse and take the initiative to touch upon other people's conspiracies and traps with great interest.

When Aiwass went to the Theocracy, Sherlock felt that Aiwass's desire was even stronger. One of the reasons why he left Aiwass to do the mission was because he was a little upset to see that his friend, whom he recognized, was so paranoid in this regard.

Sherlock is not the kind of person who likes to nag and educate others, and Aiwass only killed bad guys, or even people who "had to be killed"... Therefore, Sherlock never expressed his inner thoughts.

However, during this period of time, I don’t know what Aiwass has experienced...

But when he saw Aiwass again, Sherlock felt that Aiwass didn't seem so eager to "kill".

This made Sherlock feel much more relieved.

Sherlock had previously specifically emphasized the sentence "The Grand Duke treated him very well", in fact, to prevent Aiwass from killing them all after he went out.

"--Yes."

Yassen nodded, confirming Sherlock's speculation: "Vendome - I was quite surprised at first."

"Does the Duke of Vendôme know about this?" asked Aiwass.

"He couldn't possibly know."

Sherlock answered affirmatively.

As he spoke, the corners of the detective's mouth rose slightly. "If he had written to tell you, I wouldn't have been able to see this fun. It's just a pity... you still ran into Yassen. Otherwise, I would have come to tell you this in person now - I missed a good show."

As he spoke, Sherlock's face showed genuine regret.

He is really looking forward to this rare high-quality fun!
Shylock has always been a funny guy, but he never likes to feed on the suffering of others. Under such moral standards, many funny things are actually difficult to find. For example, he doesn't like to tell jokes about hell - let alone the fun of his friends!

If this fun was from Aiwass, then its value would be at least tripled - no, five times!
Thinking of this, Sherlock suddenly thought of something.

He looked at Yassen and asked with interest, "Why are you so silent today, Yassen? Is it because Aiwass is here and you are stressed in front of strangers?"
