Chapter 485 I'm Glad You Made an Introduction

Zhang Heng shook hands with Holmes, but the latter did not let go immediately, "You have lived at sea for a long time, are you a seaman, no, more like the decision maker on board, the captain or the first mate, but that should be It was a long time ago. It’s interesting. At your age, you shouldn’t be in such a high position. Forgive me, I don’t know much about the political system in the East... You have experienced war, more than once, and you have seen blood. But you are not a soldier, which is more interesting. You have also practiced archery, and you must boast that you are versatile. You have been to many places. Are you a traveler? Finally, I hope to have the opportunity to hear you play the piano."

"Wow, that's impressive. Did you deduce these?" Zhang Heng said.

"It's just some little tricks of the magician. It's not worth mentioning once you explain it to the truth. In addition, if you offend me, please forgive me." Holmes laughed, but it could be seen that he was still very proud, which was almost exactly the same as in the original book.

It is not a polite thing to reveal all the details of the other party at the first meeting like this. Although he also used words such as hope Haihan in the end, it was more like a casual sentence. The common problem of all geniuses is that they are always self-centered, act recklessly, and rarely care about the feelings of others.

However, when he wanted to withdraw his hand the next moment, he found that Zhang Heng had not let go.

"Lack of literature, philosophy, astronomy knowledge, and very limited understanding of politics, but profound knowledge of chemistry, serious partiality in botany, no knowledge of gardening, but familiar with all kinds of [river crab], you are also taking those [ River Crab], unfortunately, you should stay away from them... With your willpower, I believe you can do it, good at identifying soil, have rich but unsystematic knowledge of anatomy, have done boxing, fencing and rod Pretty good too, you have a brother who is a government official, he is smarter than you, but you hate to admit it, the grandfather was a country gentleman for generations, but then his family fell down, and by the way, I would also like to hear you play the violin , but the premise is that you are pulling well, otherwise it will be just howling."

Zhang Heng finished speaking in one breath, and this time it was the turn of the man opposite to be stunned. After a pause, he raised his head and looked at Mrs. Hudson, "Did you tell him everything about me?"

The latter shook his head, "I don't know what you do in the room all day, Mr. Holmes, I just hope you don't mess up the room again."

"Ha," Holmes frowned, as if he was caught in some kind of difficulty, and said after a while, "...about the part about chemistry knowledge, you can tell from the chemical reagents left on my hand, you touched the violin when we shook hands Calluses on my fingers, plus I mentioned I just went to a concert, so it wasn't difficult, as for fencing, there's my light saber on the balcony, did you see that when I was downstairs, I did Boxer, still retains some of the little habits of boxers, it’s not surprising that you can see it, let’s not talk about stick skills... How do you see my attainments in various disciplines, this kind of thing is not true What a secret, if we've lived together for a while, you'll see quickly, but this is the first time we've met, and my brother, who I rarely talk about, even ha Mrs. Desen doesn't know his existence, let alone my grandfather, how do you know?"

"Arthur Conan Doyle told me, don't take it to heart." Zhang Heng also smiled, and finally withdrew his hand.

"Arthur Conan Doyle? Who is that?" Holmes was lost. "I don't remember having such a friend."

At this time, Mrs. Hudson on the other side said, "I am very glad that you have made an introduction, although the person you introduced to each other is a bit strange, because most people usually introduce themselves at this time...but it doesn't matter, the important thing is that you have already introduced yourself. After getting to know each other, I can bring you some tea or something, so that you can continue chatting."

"That couldn't be better." It was obvious that Holmes had begun to take an interest in Zhang Heng. He took off his hat and hung it on the hook beside him, then took off his coat, sat down on the sofa, took out a pipe, and Fill with tobacco.

"Mr. Zhang Heng, I have to admit that you are much more interesting than I imagined. I do have some stereotyped impressions of oriental people. Before that, I was still worried that you would be like my former roommates. The same can't stay for two days before moving out, but now I'm sure we'll have a good time together in the days to come."

"Mr. Holmes, I am also very interested in your observation and reasoning abilities, and hope to learn from you in the future." Zhang Heng also sat down on the opposite sofa.

"It's interesting. Normally, quite a few people would come to my door for help. Whether it's a private detective or the police from Scotland Yard, they would come to me with the evidence they had collected when they encountered difficult cases that they could not solve. I'll point it out, but they just want to eat chicken, and you're the first one who wants to raise your own chickens."

Holmes paused, "I don't mind sharing the skills I have summed up through exploration, but some things sound simple, but actually doing them is another matter, requiring a lot of practice. I studied, but they all gave up later, but you are different, you have excellent observation ability, very good, maybe you can master it soon.

"Although I have written very clearly in the rental notice in the newspaper, for the sake of prudence, it is better for me to repeat the main points. The two of us share a house and share the rent. You and I each have two bedrooms. You don’t have to choose because I lived in first, but I can assure you that your bedroom is also very comfortable. We share the living room, but I have the priority to use it when I need to work. Sometimes I will be in the room Do some experiments here, and maybe play the violin, I hope you don’t mind, oh, you can tell me in advance if you have any habits or hobbies.”

"Only one, I hope you don't play your violin in the wee hours of the morning."

"It's reasonable, and I will try my best to avoid this kind of thing from happening." Holmes' attitude was sincere, but his words flickered. It was obvious that he didn't have much confidence, and he was already prepared to cheat.

"Then I'm fine."

"Very well, then let's have a toast together for our future cohabitation life." Holmes then shouted to the kitchen, "Mrs. Hudson, we changed our minds that we should not drink afternoon tea and should drink. Please take me Bring out the treasured bottle of port wine, we have to treat this mysterious oriental tenant well."
