Chapter 253 Sherlock's Heartache

The Silver and Tin Palace is quite far from the port. If Aiwass and his friends decide to go and watch the fun, they will probably have to borrow a griffin to get to the scene. But it is very close to the Inspectorate.

So Aiwass is not in a hurry.

In his spare time, Aiwass can even take a bath and take care of his hair.

Although the room where Aiwass is temporarily staying is a guest room, it is after all a room used by the deceased royal family before - there are many such empty rooms in the Silver and Tin Palace. There is a corner in the room where you can take a bath, just pull a screen over and it will be fine.

After changing into a bathrobe, Aiwass sat in front of the mirror. Lily helped Aiwass take care of his hair behind him.

Isabel sat on the sofa and looked at this from a distance.

Aiwass looked at himself in the mirror and couldn't help frowning slightly: "Why not cut it?"

It's not that he doesn't look good.

Aiwass actually cares about his image.

It's not just for "good looks" or "bad looks" - to be frank, Aiwas's looks are definitely good. After all, he inherited his father, the civilian priest who made the noble lady from Iris elope and chase him. Aiwass's mature and cold temperament is mixed with his mother's soft facial features that give people a sense of tenderness.

Aiwass's emphasis on his image mainly comes from "purposefulness". That is, what kind of feeling his appearance can give people.

His own temperament is a warm temperament like the sun and the fireplace. Although it is a warm color system, it does not appear to be explosive and tough, but tends to be static - like a teacher with a good temper. This is a feeling that tends to be neutral.

Aiwass also deliberately took care of his image before.

In order not to make himself too sharp and aggressive, he kept that fluffy and slightly curly hairstyle. Now that his hair has grown longer, they have been straightened by themselves.

Now they are still shoulder-length hair, which already looks a bit feminine. Aiwass tried to clasp his fingers together, bow his head and close his eyes to pray - but it no longer gave people the dazzling feeling as before. It was like the blazing sun, gradually turning towards the moon.

It was still okay at the moment. But if it grows longer, to the back or even to the waist... I'm afraid Aiwass would give people a sinister feeling at that time. A temperament that is too gentle will give people a sense of disobedience, and it is easy to arouse others' vigilance.

Hearing this, Lily just calmly helped Aiwass comb his hair.

She picked up two strands of hair and braided a strand of hair with extremely skillful techniques. Let it fall to the sideburns on one side of Aiwass.

"Doesn't it look good, Master?"

Lily asked back: "I know what you are worried about... but I feel that at least it's okay for now."

"It's okay for now."

Evans thought about it and felt okay: "How about changing your hairstyle?"

Isabel also ran over and looked at it carefully: "I think it looks good. How about this, Aiwas? I want to see your hair longer... just as a change of mood?"

Her warm breath gently sprayed on Aiwas's temples with her breath, making his hair sway slightly.

"Then let's do it."

Evans replied helplessly.

It's rare that Her Royal Highness took the initiative to ask for what she wanted-for her autistic personality, I'm afraid this requires a lot of courage.

If I refuse, it might break the courage she has cultivated with great difficulty.

Anyway, I am already a minister without a department, and there is basically no room for promotion. There is no need to care too much about what others think of me.

Evans explained to himself in his heart.

Now that Isabel finally has the courage to clearly put forward her ideas, Aiwass is still very happy. Seriously, he feels the joy of raising a child.

This shows that she has gradually come out of her past depression and gradually returned to a normal person... and this is Aiwass's cultivation.

This promotion ceremony can be said to be very effective in increasing her confidence - although it is a test, it is also a lesson. Maybe Sherlock didn't grow much.

But this is normal, because his own desire for promotion is not strong enough. Then naturally he will not touch the real test in the ceremony.

But he succeeded in the promotion after all, which is also a good thing.

- In Aiwas's view, this actually shows that Sherlock actually has a heart disease.

Although he embarked on the path of wisdom, he still hesitated about his choice deep in his heart. He probably thought, "Even if I fail this time, I can use the path of authority to accompany me to promotion", so he put it aside.

The essence of this idea is that he actually hopes that someone will deny his path of wisdom. Or conversely, he hopes that his path can be affirmed and supported by others.

This may be because Aiwass became a minister without portfolio.

Because Sherlock is a very proud and confident person. But he is still too young now, and has the anxiety that young people have.

He has always admired his brother Mycroft. And now, his best friend Aiwass has also become a minister without portfolio, at the same level as his brother... Isabel is basically determined to become the next generation Queen of Avalon. Counting Edward as the inspector general...

All the friends and close people around Sherlock have become real "big shots".

And only he himself is still an "inspectorate consultant".

This will make him feel a little confused.

Aiwass actually understands him quite well.

Because Aiwass once knew such a friend.

It's like an excellent college student who graduated from a top prestigious university, who resolutely chose a career that he likes but has nothing to do with his major and has no great prospects - such as an idol or anchor, or a screenwriter for a game company.

Then relying on his excellent talents and full enthusiasm, he became a very outstanding and famous person in this industry.

But one day, he suddenly heard that his former classmates, his roommates, and his good brothers either became Yangtze River Scholars, or became representatives of the National People's Congress, or became associate professors, or became chairman or general manager... At that time, he would always feel confused about the path he chose.

This is human nature.

——Is it me who is wrong? Are the things I gave up the right ones?

Sherlock is now at this stage.

Because his talent in the path of authority is quite good, he can even be offered as a disciple by Dean Meg - if he grows step by step, he will be able to reach the fifth level without any accidents. By that time, as Meg's disciple, he will become the new Grand Arbitrator and Deputy Director of the Arbitration Hall.

And he took the initiative to reject that future.

Because Sherlock really has no interest in the path of authority.

—— If Aiwass understands it from this perspective, then Sherlock's psychology is very clear.

He is very proud and holds his head high. He doesn't want to give up, but he feels confused. So he wants to give up on himself and chooses to hand over the initiative of promotion to pave the way for Aiwass and others - in essence, he is actually craving for real failure.

At this time, a proper failure can "wake him up". Let him pick up the path of authority that he has put aside. In that case, his path of wisdom will probably become a "part-time job" or "personal hobby" that will not affect the promotion of the path of authority.

But Aiwass will not allow that kind of thing.

Because that is not a "wake-up call".

—— Rather than saying that he is looking for a reason to give up, it is better to say that he is looking for a motivation to persist. It was like riding alone in a storm... Even if his body was soaked by the rain and he couldn't see the road ahead, he didn't want to stop.

A person who really wants to give up will not be so proud and stubborn. They will find reasons for failure in advance to protect themselves.

This time, Aiwass helped him get promoted, but it didn't solve the problem. Sherlock still hesitated.

I hope this trip can untie his knot. Aiwass sighed in his heart.

Her Highness the Princess has begun to grow up, but you, the senior, have regressed. It's not good...

Aiwass came back to his senses, touched the thin strand of hair braided by Lily on his left ear, and smiled helplessly-you might as well just tie a side ponytail for me.

After bathing, Aiwass put on his formal dress as a minister for the first time, put on his hat and followed Isabel out.

- This time Aiwas didn't sit in a wheelchair.

Just like Isabel and Sherlock-I have to gradually give up those things that make him feel convenient.

I am too dependent on the wheelchair and my appearance, so I am probably lacking something.

What am I lacking... Is it confidence?

Following Isabel, who was jumping and jumping, and was extremely excited, Aiwass lowered his eyes slightly and fell into deep thought.

He has always believed that he is a perfect body who has grown up.

But now it seems... is it really so?

Before this incident, Sherlock also believed that he was a perfect body.

Or maybe it is just that I have not reached the time to change and awaken...

And following behind Aiwass, Lily looked at Aiwass and smiled with relief.
