Chapter 485

Zhang Heng shook hands with Holmes, but the latter did not immediately let go. "You have lived on the sea for a long time. Are you a sailor? No, it's more like the decision-maker, Captain or first mate on the ship. But that should have been a long time ago. It's interesting. Your age should not have been in such a high position. Forgive me, I don't know much about the political system in the East … You've been through war more than once. You've seen blood, but you're not a soldier. It's more interesting. You've also practiced archery. You have to boast that you're versatile. You've been to many places. Are you a traveler? Finally, I hope to have a chance to hear you play the piano. "

"Wow, it's impressive. Did you deduce all this?" Zhang Hengdao.

"It's just a little trick of the magician. It's not worth mentioning once it's said out. In addition, if you have any offence, please forgive me." Holmes laughed, but as like as two peas, he was proud and proud of himself.

It's not polite to shake out the details of the other person at the first meeting. Although he also used words like "hope Haihan" in the end, it's more like a slip of the tongue. This is probably the common fault of all geniuses in all ages. They always take themselves as the center, act wantonly, and rarely care about the feelings of others.

However, the next moment when he wanted to withdraw his hand, he found that Zhang Heng didn't let go.

"I lack knowledge of literature, philosophy and astronomy, and my understanding of politics is very limited. But I have a profound knowledge of chemistry. I'm seriously partial to science in Botany, and I don't know how to garden. But I know all kinds of river crabs like the palm of my hand, and I'm taking them myself. I'm sorry, you should stay away from them With your willpower, I believe you can do it. You are good at identifying the soil, have rich but unsystematic knowledge of planing, have been a boxer, and have excellent fencing and bating skills. You have a government official's elder brother who is smarter than you, but you hate to admit that. My grandfather was a squire for generations, but then his family was in trouble. By the way, I also hope to hear from you Violin, but only if you play well, otherwise it's just crying

Zhang Heng finished in one breath. This time, the man on the opposite side was stunned. He looked at Mrs. Hudson and said, "have you told him all about me?"

The latter shook his head. "I don't know what you're doing in the room all day, Mr. Holmes. I just hope you don't make a mess of the room any more."

"Ha," said Holmes, frowning, as if he were in some difficulty, a moment later As for the chemical knowledge, you can see from the chemical reagents left in my hands. When we shook hands, you touched the cocoon of my fingers on the violin. In addition, I mentioned that I had just gone to a concert, so it was not difficult. As for fencing, my light sword was on the balcony. Did you see it downstairs? I have been a boxer, and I still have some boxing It's not surprising that you can see the small habits of hand. Let's not talk about stick skill first How do you see my attainments in various subjects? It's no secret. If we live together for a while, you can see it soon. But this is the first time we meet. And my brother, I seldom talk about him. Even Mrs. Hudson doesn't know his existence, let alone my grandfather. How do you know "What's the truth?"

"Arthur Conan Doyle told me, don't worry about it." Zhang Heng also smiles and finally draws back his hand.

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

Then Mrs. Hudson on the other side said, "I'm glad you've made an introduction, although the people you introduce to each other are a little strange, because most people usually introduce themselves at this time But it doesn't matter. The important thing is that you have known each other. I can bring you some tea and let you continue to talk. "

"That would be great." It can be seen that Holmes began to be interested in Zhang Heng. He took off his hat and hung it on the hook. Then he took off his coat, sat down on the sofa, took out a pipe and filled it with tobacco.

"Mr. Zhang Heng, I have to admit that you are much more interesting than I thought. I do have some old stereotypes about Oriental people. Before, I was still worried about whether you would move out within two days like my previous roommates, but now I am sure that we will get along well in the next days."

"Mr. Holmes, I'm also interested in your ability of observation and reasoning. I hope I can learn from you in the future." Zhang Heng also sat down on the sofa opposite.

"It's interesting. Usually, many people come to me for help. Whether they are private detectives or the police in Scotland Yard, they will come to me with the evidence they have collected when they encounter complicated cases that they can't solve. But they just want to eat chicken, and you are the first one who wants to raise your own chicken."

Holmes stopped. "I don't mind sharing the skills I've worked out, but some things sound simple. In fact, doing them is another thing that needs a lot of practice. It's not that no one wants to learn from me before, but they all give up later. But you're different. You have excellent observation ability, which is very good May be able to grasp soon, but not necessarily."Although I have made it very clear in the newspaper's rental revelation, for the sake of caution, I'd like to repeat the main points. We share a house, and the rent is shared. You and I have one bedroom each. Because I live first, you don't have to choose. But I can assure you that your bedroom is also very comfortable, and we share the living room, But when I need to work, I have the priority to use it. Sometimes I do some experiments in my room, or I may play the violin. I hope you don't mind. Oh, you can let me know in advance if you have any habits or hobbies. "

"There's only one. I hope you don't play your violin in the early hours of the morning."

"It's reasonable. I'll try to avoid it." Sherlock Holmes is sincere, but his words are flashing. Obviously, he has no confidence and is ready to cheat in advance.

"Then I have no problem."

"Good. Let's drink to the future cohabitation." Holmes then called out to the kitchen, "Mrs. Hudson, we've changed our mind to avoid afternoon tea. It's time to have a drink. Please take out my bottle of Porter. We have to treat this mysterious oriental tenant well."
