Chapter 162 Yes, I'm Missing

When Sherlock woke up as usual, put on his pajamas and went downstairs for breakfast.

But at the dining table, he saw two familiar and unfamiliar figures.

"Iwass?"

Sherlock stopped walking downstairs and murmured.

Aiwass, who was supposed to be sitting in a wheelchair and was pushed by Lily, was now sitting safely on the stool.Appears to have fully recovered.

And Lily didn't stand behind Aiwass, but sat beside him.

After only seeing each other for a week, Sherlock keenly sensed that the tacit understanding between the master and servant seemed to have deepened a bit.

"You look much better, Sherlock."

Hearing the voice, Aiwass turned around and greeted with a smile: "It seems that you have adapted to the life here with Mr. Bishop."

It's still very early now, but Sherlock doesn't look sleepy, it should be that his biological clock has adjusted a bit.

It's also possible that the hypoglycemia had been treated—some of his previously almost sunken cheeks had visibly filled in, and his somewhat dry hair had gained some shine.From this point of view, perhaps his previous hypoglycemia was purely caused by his unhealthy life.

"really."

Sherlock nodded instead.

His body was propped on the handrail of the stairs, and the corners of his mouth were raised: "At first, I was really uncomfortable, because I was always dragged by Mr. Kent to handle some troublesome cases. Suddenly I became idle, and I felt uncomfortable.

"But once I get used to it, I can slowly calm down and read books and do research. Thanks to Mrs. Mina, I often don't bother to eat when I live alone, but she always reminds me in time. In addition, I have gradually become more relaxed recently. , and there is not so much work driving me away... I can eat three meals a day and work regularly, and I feel that my body has improved a lot."

Mr. Hermes is very optimistic about his physical judgment.

Aiwass leaned back in his chair: "I think it's the same if you live in your own home."

"No, no, that won't work."

Sherlock frowned immediately: "It's not that I hate them—how should I put it, my family actually prefers to be quiet."

With that said, Sherlock walked quickly down the stairs.

He sat down beside Aiwass before continuing, "Do you know Mycroft's 'Barrel' club?"

"Brother Ni?" Aiwass asked.

"Yes," Sherlock nodded, "unless he has something to do, he stays there at a fixed time every afternoon. I think it's the weirdest club on the Glass Isle, full of weirdos.

"You also know that Avalonians like to socialize in various clubs. Joining different clubs is often the way for them to meet new friends and new circles. But not everyone likes to socialize, and there are always some withdrawn, Someone who doesn't fit in or is just plain unsociable. Just because they're withdrawn doesn't mean they have to stay in the shadows.

"The Cask Club is owned by Mycroft. You should have met him, right?"

When Sherlock said this, he asked.

Aiwass nodded, recalling the man at Sherlock's funeral who was at least three circles fatter than Sherlock, but had a gentle temperament and a smart mind: "Well, he is indeed a very smart person."

"The rule of the Cask Club is that everyone is not allowed to talk to each other, and they are not allowed to talk. The club is very large, and the various facilities are very comfortable and the lighting is also very good.

"Members can sit in the room they want to go to, drink tea, read books, paint pictures and read newspapers. The club can provide tea and the latest journals for free, with entertainment and academic orientation. You can also find someone to play chess, But the rules are the same - no talking, no weird behavior, no loud noises, no attention."

... Isn't that the study room?
Aiwass suddenly became interested: "I think it's pretty good."

"As far as the atmosphere is concerned, I think it's actually quite good. It's just that there are weird people from the entire Glass Island gathered there, for example..."

Speaking of this, Sherlock paused slightly: "After my investigation, the sculptor Lars Graham also often appears there."

It was a code that only the two of them could understand.

——This is the name of "Bone Carving".

"But I didn't join the barrel club, because I can't really keep quiet for a long time... When my train of thought is cut off, or when I'm too bored, my heart can easily become restless. At that time I I would punch, or practice marksmanship and swordsmanship, or play the violin, to excite my sleepy brain.

"The result is that whenever I'm at home, my family dislikes me like a child. And there are many rules in the house, and only Mycroft can always please them. It's best for me to go back once in a while. Feeling the warmth of family and not being too annoying. Stay for a day or two and I'll be heading back to my own place — among other things, staying at home won't get you business."

Sherlock explained.

"Ah, I understand."

Aiwass nodded and understood.

It's like a child who works or studies in another place returns home, and the first few days are called a greeting.After less than a week, people began to hate dogs and get scolded back and forth.

Especially Sherlock, who has a chaotic schedule, doesn't like to eat, retreats for a day or two from time to time, and often makes some noises at strange times... His treatment in his own family is definitely not as good as that of the mature, stable, and worldly Miklo Mr. Foote's.It's not his fault that he moved out by himself, at least he won't be scolded.

But Sherlock and the Bishop are not that close.Even though he was half a stranger and half a lifesaver, he couldn't let it go here, so he had to be polite.So Mrs. Mina called him to eat, and he had to come down to eat honestly.As a result, after a week like this, Sherlock's biological clock was adjusted back.

Aiwass was amazed, this is probably one thing and one thing.

"Why don't you just live here forever?"

Mrs. Mina took breakfast for four people and distributed it on the table.

She smiled at Sherlock, "You're looking for a new house anyway, right?"

Hearing this, Sherlock was a little hesitant and cautious: "But... this is too much trouble for you, isn't it?"

"Then you can pay the rent."

Mrs. Mina smiled: "I don't worry about you living alone."

She and Mathers never had children.And these days, she gradually realized that Sherlock is indeed a good boy.But his living habits are really worrying... Mina can almost confirm that if Sherlock is let out to rent a house, he may return to his previous state in less than a month.

She managed to restore Sherlock's body with great difficulty, and she didn't want all this to be in vain.

"Anyway, Mathers and I don't have any children, so it's not good if more than half of the rooms are always empty in such a big house. There was no one living on the second floor, so it wouldn't be troublesome to cook for one more person. But it's too much." A knife and fork thing."

"...Then I will ask Bishop Mathers later."

Sherlock was obviously a little moved: "It's just that I will cause you trouble if someone visits, right?"

"It's okay, I have the final say on such matters. If you stay here, you can also be regarded as attracting business for my shop."

Mina smiled: "The living room on the second floor can be reached from the stairs of my divination shop. Would you like to turn the living room on the second floor into your office?"

Now that Mrs. Mina has talked about this, Sherlock is too embarrassed to mention the matter of moving out.

"Thank you very much for taking me in, Mrs. Mina."

Sherlock said seriously: "I don't have any money with me now, I will bring the rent later."

"It seems that I have witnessed a good thing."

Aiwass laughed.

In this way, I also have an excuse to come and visit frequently.

"By the way, what about today's newspaper?"

Sherlock asked softly: "I want to read some newspapers while eating."

During this period of time without contact with others, his knowledge of Avalon was completely dependent on various newspapers.

"Here, be careful not to get dirty."

Aiwass handed over the "Glass Steps" he was reading before: "Or do you want another newspaper?"

"This will do."

Sherlock glanced at it and said casually, "You're in the headlines again...huh?"

He took a closer look to see the content of the headline.

Aiwas Moriarty, the young hero who received the badge of the Holy Sword, was kidnapped by demon worshipers at school and is now missing! "

Sherlock looked at the newspaper, then looked up at Aiwass who handed the newspaper to him.

"...is missing now?" Sherlock repeated uncertainly.

"uh-huh."

Aiwass shrugged: "Yeah, I'm missing."
