48 Hours a Day

Spinach is one of mankind's favorite recreational activities of all times.

London was no exception in the 19th century, where there were probably hundreds of big and small casinos, not counting those pubs, wrist-breakers and poker players.

The following evening, three people, including Vial, assembled at 221B Baker Street.

“Given the nature of the guy's work, he won't go to those very famous casinos.” Holmes Road, "the tavern was perfect for him and the boxing arena was good, I had some very friendly conversations with the Prussian barbers last night... well, I got the name of the tavern they met, and we searched around it to improve efficiency. ”

“So we're splitting up?” Zhang Heng asked.

“Yes, we've both met that guy, you and Vial, and I've been in one group, but he's also seen us, so we need to put on a little makeup.” Holmes Road.

He said while taking out two sets of wigs and other makeup tools, "Your skin tone is a problem, the Orientals will be more prominent in London, but you can cover your body with clothes, put some coal ash on your face, it's night, if you don't look closely, you shouldn't be too close to him, of course. ”

Holmes started out talking and a moment later a boiler came out fresh, while Holmes dressed himself as an old smoke-addict sailor.

Zhang Heng wrote down the method used by Holmes, which of course was only a relatively elementary disguise, far less than Holmes' previously dressed cabbie, the only magical uninspired, and Irene Adler's upside down gypsy entertainer was the stronger level.

When the three of them were ready and changed some change, they started to move in their pockets.

Zhang Heng and Holmes separated at the crossroads, each contracted an area. Zhang Heng and Detective Redhead first came to a tavern called Pigeon, where they drank a drink and did not meet the target. There were also many gentlemen, generally looking more elegant, and no one gambled money. Then they came to the boxing yard next door.

There are a lot more people here, and the voices are boiling, two strong figures are fighting on the ring, and his people are watching, Zhang Heng and Vial had to take a little effort to search every corner, and the fighters on the stage also won and lost, one was knocked down on the ground and did not climb up again.

The crowd burst into cheer, obviously on the right side of the bet, and of course some people held their heads in frustration, looking like the bad luck of losing money.

In fact, Zhang Heng can also understand why people who come to the game will have to want to play a little gamble, because the vast majority of people will be infected by the atmosphere here. In the meantime, they see that people make money easily, it is hard to stop itching and play with themselves. Of course, most of the time, there is no blood.

However, the red hair detective is obviously the exception. Zhang Heng finally understands why it is so strict as Holmes, he will also have a home to admire Ville. This short French detective will not only have to shoot horses. Once he enters the working state, his face will be very focused and not shaken by anything. Once someone similar to the description is discovered, he will secretly tell Zhang Heng again at the first moment.

So far, however, they haven't met the guy who escaped from the theater. Zhang Heng even suspected that he would escape from London after what happened last night.

But Holmes is convinced that he's still here.

“A guy like this, although not a decision maker on the team, is not so easy to replace with his own hands, and he won't abandon the plan because of a small setback in this eye.” Holmes was like that before the operation began.

Zhang Heng and Detective Redhead then went to a big, small and two taverns and a boxing ring, but not sure if he was lucky, still had little to gain, and the night gradually got deeper.

“I wonder what's going on with Mr. Holmes.” Violet took out her handkerchief and wiped the sweat off her head, opening it.

But at this moment, Zhang Heng next to him suddenly stopped.

Ville looked forward to someone's eyes, but the target did not match the description of the previous two, but the red-haired detective was very polite, holding onto the uh doubt in his heart, at this time nothing was said, he saw Zhang Hengzhuanwall make a look of drinking and vomiting, and he also pretended to be concerned to pat the back of the former.

The target had no doubt, his eyes just swept here in a hurry, and he seemed to have something urgent to do with himself, so he left in a hurry.

Until the figure disappeared in the night, Zhang Heng stopped drowsiness and stood up.

Violet could finally ask the question, “Who is that guy? ”

“A guard next to the Prime Minister, we met at the theater last night.” Zhang Heng explained.

It was just before he walked across the street from him that he had been warned not to move. He intended to cuff his guy, because the two of them had met face to face and Zhang Heng's disguise was relatively elementary. Therefore, he hid his face in the interest of safety. Zhang Heng remembered the ploy of buying a nanny from Mr. M in the oil painting to falsify the marks of theft. It seemed that the other party really liked this mode of operation. In this operation, he seemed to have planned to reinvent the technique.

“What are we going to do, follow?” The red-haired detective asked.

Zhang Hengliu shook his head, “It's a good thing to confirm each other's goals, but tracking the guard doesn't make much sense. Do you remember where he came from? ”

“Of course.” Virgo.

“Let's go there and see if the guy I fought with last night is still there. ”

Zhang Heng and the red-haired detective stuck their heads in the cafe where the target walked out. It was already late at night, and the cafe was about to close. There were only a few people in it. Even the women's uniforms were in arrears. Zhang Henghuan looked around and did not see the Prussian figure.

He then expanded his search with Vial, but unfortunately no shadow of the target was found, and eventually they could only rendezvous with Holmes two blocks away.

After hearing Zhang Heng introduce the basics, the latter nodded, “You did the right thing, the bribed person is not a member of the team, not to mention whether the acceptance of the bribe can be proven, grabbed him for no use other than to shock the snake, instead, now that we have mastered each other's goals ahead of time, it is tantamount to taking the initiative, next, we can play the game with them well. ”
