Chapter 492

Beck street team, one of Holmes' maces in the original.

This is a group of unkempt street children, who were recruited by Sherlock Holmes to track targets and collect intelligence. Because of their age and identity, no one will be on guard against them. They are like invisible people in this city, even if they swagger behind who they are, they will not be suspected.

"Instead of letting them wander in the street every day, it's better to find something for them to do. Don't look down on them. Sometimes a person is better than a dozen policemen. He can get in everywhere and hear everything." Holmes said so, at the same time took out a side of the violin, asked Zhang Heng, "anyway, after we have nothing to do, do you have any music you want to listen to?"

"Help yourself."

"Let's take sarasadi's introduction and Tarantella." With that, Holmes put his violin on the left clavicle and pulled it up.

Zhang Heng estimated that Holmes' Violin level is between LV1 and Lv2, which is slightly worse than that of professional players, but ordinary people probably can't hear the difference. When he plays with his heart, he can still bring a lot of pleasure to the listeners.

Sherlock Holmes then completely immersed in the sea of music, Zhang Heng is taking this opportunity to look at the hands of the case records.

To be fair, it's interesting.

Especially considering that he has learned programming and communication for a long time in the last round of copies, at least these cases are more interesting now. In particular, many newspaper clippings read like a novel with both sound and emotion, and the plots are more and more bizarre and tortuous.

Zhang Heng can understand why Holmes is so fond of solving a case. It's like playing a crossword puzzle. You need to mobilize all your reserved knowledge and attention. Finding the answer can bring you enough satisfaction and sense of accomplishment.

Of course, Zhang Heng has more important things to do now. After Holmes finished playing the violin, Zhang Heng asked the latter, "do you have any way to make money?"

"Why, are you short of money recently?" Holmes raised his eyebrows. "It's not normal for people who send half a quarter's rent as deposit before meeting each other."

"The money was paid by an elder friend after I found the house. In fact, I don't have much cash left." Zhang Heng did not change his face.

After the copy started, Zhang Heng also checked his pocket. There was only about five pounds and seven shillings in it. Although the rent had been paid in advance and three meals a day could be eaten at home, the money was obviously not enough to support his daily expenses.

Holmes shrugged. "I'd like to hire you as my assistant to solve the case with me. We cooperated very well in the textile factory before, but I may not be able to afford your salary, otherwise I don't have to find someone to share it."

"I'm very interested in solving the case, so you don't have to pay me any salary, but now it seems that I'm going to find another job. It's better not to take up too much of my time." Zhang Hengdao.

Although the copy still has a long time to go, it's not easy to win Sherlock Holmes. Zhang Heng is ready to devote himself to it. In fact, he doesn't have much demand for money, as long as he can spend enough, because no amount of money can bring out the copy.

In fact, Zhang Heng still has many ways to make money in this era, but most of them take a long time, and the most important thing is to explain the source of income with Holmes.

"Well I really know a way to make money. " Holmes touched his chin. "I did it for a period of time. Although it wasn't for the purpose of making money at that time, it did bring me a lot of income, and it perfectly met your requirements. It won't take up any of your time. Just take out one night when you are free, but..."

Holmes said, "it's not easy to make this money. You have to show me that you really have the ability to make this money."

Then he got up from the sofa and said, "come with me. Don't wear a hat or a coat. We'll be back soon."

They walked out of 221B Baker Street and came to a vacant lot. Holmes stopped and turned to Zhang Heng. Without saying a word, he raised his fist and hit the latter.

Zhang Heng's reaction is also very fast, sideways to avoid the punch.

"Not bad." Holmes praised, "I think your figure and appearance should have practiced fighting. That's the best. I won't stay any longer."

With that, he began to move frequently, which made people unable to see where he would move next.

Zhang Heng still stood quietly in the same place, without any action.

The next moment, Holmes gave up the temptation, suddenly hit again, Zhang Heng no longer dodged, reached out to block the punch, sure enough, no matter the strength or speed, are much better than the previous one.

"Good defense." Sherlock Holmes was not surprised but happy when he was stopped. It seems that he was also interested. He was aroused to be competitive, and then he became more attentive.

To be fair, his boxing strength is not so outstanding, but his winning moves are quick, clean and without any frills. In a sense, he is very close to Zhang Heng's style.However, Holmes' boxing and his violin belong to the top level of amateur, which is enough for the detective industry. However, there is still a lot of gap between them and Zhang Heng, who has spent more than ten years in the battle of life and death. Even if Zhang Heng does not have a knife in his hand now, his real strength has been reduced to a certain extent. Relying on his body method, he can avoid most of Holmes' attacks.

"I'm going to start fighting back." A minute later, Zhang Heng said.

Holmes hesitated. In fact, he felt that Zhang Heng's strength was above him, but it also made him more curious about the level of the other side. He thought that he might as well continue to do so anyway.

So five minutes later, Holmes covered his eyes and went back to his residence with Zhang Heng.

"Shall I find you some ointment to apply?" Zhang Heng asked.

"No, a little bit," Holmes said. "When I was a boxer, I was hit harder every day than that." But then he realized that there was nothing to be proud of.

"In a word, I can introduce some underground boxing rings to you, but if you really want to make money from it, you'd better let it go a little and don't win too easily, otherwise the game will lose suspense and the dealer will not be able to do it."
