Chapter 77 Agreement
"...How about we make an appointment and I can give you a diagnosis, Mr. John?"
Said this tall and burly giant beast that almost had its head on the ceiling. Its whole body was covered with long, shiny black hair, and strands of bright white electric light danced happily on the tips of the hair.
A voice as loud as thunder came from the thick and tangled hair, just like thunder exploding in the plains, and the sound of thunder echoed in the corridor.
But the long black hair could not hide those bright eyes, and there was a blazing white light brewing in the depths of the pupils, like electric snakes dancing in the dark clouds.
As the moth inside Watson's skull became more and more fat, he was able to open the moth's vision endlessly. When he saw the terrifying true face of Dr. Winfrey, his expression remained unchanged, but he shook his head slightly and sighed. :
"Alas - I have this old problem left over from the battlefield. I've visited many famous doctors but can't solve it... I'm already frustrated." Watson continued: "Besides, Mr. Winfrey, you Now I have to work and take care of Anna on my own. I’m so busy, so I can’t bear to take up your precious time.”
"Let's wait until Anna's condition improves and Mr. Winfrey takes the time to continue talking about this matter... The top priority now is to stabilize Anna's condition as soon as possible!"
Winfrey Morgan's kindness was ruthlessly rejected. Not only was he not angry, he was even more delighted.
If the other party agreed so easily, he would be secretly wary... He had already learned from his daughter that the John in front of him was the assistant of the recently famous detective Sherlock Holmes, and that the other party had worked together with the female detective not long ago to crack the case. An armed criminal gang intent on starting a riot.
But Winfres knew that the so-called armed criminal gangs... were just lies to confuse mortals. What the female detective and John uncovered was actually a secret sect that worshiped the Blade Sichen!
This news has already been widely circulated in the underground world - Winfreth heard other hidden people discussing this matter in the Oliflame auction house a few days ago, and all the secretaries also knew that the woman The backer behind the detective is the infamous Anti-Suppression Bureau!
That article was able to spread quickly in the city of London and continue to ferment for such a long time. Behind this, the Anti-Suppression Bureau was probably adding fuel to the fire... in order to beat them, the secret agents hiding in the shadow of the foggy city! Use this to scare the monkeys! ! !
As for the Mr. John in front of him, as Holmes' assistant, even though he did not participate too much in the destruction of the Order of the Blade, he was very likely aware of the existence of the Secret World.
If the other party easily agrees to let him diagnose his injuries, Winfrey will suspect that he may have other intentions, and even boldly speculate that it is very likely that John was admitted to the Royal Free Hospital during this time and was in the garden. The chance encounter with us, the gradual acquaintance with Anna...this series of coincidental actions all have an ulterior purpose! Maybe it was the female detective’s order that made John lurk next to me? Want to use this to find out my background?
So during this period of time, Winfrey Morgan had a lively chat with John on the surface, but in fact he was always secretly vigilant in his heart. He did not reveal any information related to Si Chen, secret transmissions, and forbidden knowledge. He just pretended to be an ordinary person. A middle-aged doctor whose daughter unfortunately suffers from this terminal disease, he spent all his wealth to allow Anna to be admitted to the best hospital and enjoy the best treatment services.
But at this moment, John's rejection made him let go of his inner guard... It seemed that the other party had no other intentions. Otherwise, he would definitely not be able to let go of this opportunity that was so suitable to investigate whether I had the power of secret transmission!
"Even when he learned that there might be hope of curing his chronic illness, he gave up and asked me to leave my energy to Anna... It seems that John really regards Anna as his sustenance for atonement... If he can be pulled away Joining the Order, with his outstanding ability, he can certainly help me find a way to break the curse in Anna's body from the secret transmission!"
"However, there is no need to be so anxious for the time being. The curse in Anna's body has been temporarily suppressed by me. Currently, the manpower in the sect is sufficient. The subsequent newcomers must be carefully inspected and qualified before I can reveal to them about the sect. affairs.”
"Besides, this John H. Watson doesn't look like one of those poor people who are in deep pain and have to cling to me as a life-saving straw."
"He has experienced a tragic war, and his determination is far beyond ordinary people. As an assistant to the detectives of the Anti-Suppression Bureau, he is well-informed and mentally mature...The most important thing is that his illness is not serious enough to despair, and he will definitely not They will fall under my sect as willingly as other believers, unless..."
All kinds of complicated thoughts flashed through Winfreth's mind, but he did not show it. He just sighed and said: "Mr. John, you are right. At this time, I should try to stabilize Anna's condition first. It is indeed not possible." It’s a good time to be distracted and think about other things.”
Watson reached out through the shadow of the dark, hairy beast and touched the real body of the middle-aged gentleman. He patted the other party's shoulder and comforted: "It's okay, Anna is so beautiful, even God can't I will be moved by her beauty and will definitely keep this little angel in this world.”
"I hope so."
Winfreth nodded, but in his heart he sneered indifferently: "Haha, God... I once thought that asking for the power of Saint Agnes would be enough to easily eliminate the curse in Anna's body, but..."
Watson waved his cane, "Okay, no more chatting. Mr. Winfrey, please go take care of Anna first. I have something urgent to do here. I'll leave first. I will come back to visit when I have time." It’s for little Anna, and I’ll also tell her about the new Sherlock Holmes stories.”
Winfrey seemed very excited, "That's great! Anna has been 'talking' about Miss Holmes' deeds to me every day recently. I really hope that one day she and Miss Holmes can meet."
Watson looked embarrassed and seemed a little embarrassed. He wanted to let Holmes discover that you are a secret messenger who has hidden so much. How can I enter the world of secret transmission through your relationship?
He hesitated and said: "Well... that's not impossible. Maybe I can talk to Miss Holmes later and see when she can find time to visit the Royal Free Hospital... But I can't guarantee it. Miss Holmes is very busy."
"It's okay, I'm just talking casually. Miss Holmes must be busy maintaining law and order in London, and I don't dare to trouble her with such a small matter... After Anna recovers from her illness in the future, I will take her to Baker Street for a stroll. "It would be great to witness Miss Holmes's heroic appearance from a distance." Winfrey thought to herself, it would be great if the female detective could come, and I vowed to try to dispel her suspicions in person!
The two people with different intentions shook hands and said goodbye, agreeing to see each other next time.
