Zhang Heng simply dealt with the skin injury on his body, and then returned to the Queen's theater to take his seat.
At this time, the opera is coming to an end.
In the square outside the bullfight arena, escamirio and Carmen walk into the arena with their heads held high, while Carmen stays outside. At this time, the ragged don Jose finds her and begs to get back together. However, Carmen is indifferent. At the same time, people cheers from the arena.
Escamirio defeats the bull. Happy Carmen takes off the ring given to her by Don Jose and throws it on the ground. He wants to rush into the arena to share the joy with his lover. However, desperate don Jose pulls out the prepared dagger from his arms and stabs Carmen. When the crowd comes out of the arena, he only sees Carmen in the pool of blood.
Don Jose exclaimed, "I killed her, Carmen, my dear Carmen!"
So far, the whole play came to an end.
After that, all the cast members of the cast came to the stage, the lights were on, and the theater was thundering with applause. There is no doubt that the first performance of the new play Carmen in London has achieved unprecedented success.
Zhang Heng also stood up and clapped with the people around him.
At the end of the performance, Zhang Heng went backstage to congratulate Irene Adler.
And here has been surrounded by congratulators, even the prime minister's wife has come down.
Zhang Heng didn't compete with the people inside. He stood aside quietly until everyone was almost gone. Eileen Adler's dressing table was surrounded by flowers because it couldn't be put down. Even the position beside it was full. On the contrary, other people had only a few flowers.
"Now I know how Londoners like you." Zhang Hengdao.
"Well, it's a pity you're not from London. I saw you leave on the way." Irene Adler said.
"Well My friend and I have something urgent to deal with
"Well, I can see how urgent you are." Adler raised his eyebrows and pointed to Zhang Heng's dress. "You look terrible. You're going to catch up with Don Jose in the play."
"Actually, I just went to the barber shop."
"I can see their service is rude enough. Give me the name of the barber shop, and I'll avoid it later." The female singer laughs.
“…………”
As a person who has read the original work, Zhang Heng will certainly keep a certain vigilance towards Irene Adler, but it must be admitted that the latter is indeed a very attractive person. No wonder the king of Bohemia will never forget it.
Strictly speaking, the king made a mistake in that case. For his own status, he abandoned Adler and married the princess of Scandinavia, which led to the later photo gate. From the perspective of Holmes' attitude, he actually preferred the female singer and despised the king's actions.
That's why when it's over, he just pays for Adler's picture and refuses the king's handshake.
Zhang Heng can probably understand Holmes' appreciation of female singers. This is indeed a smart and interesting woman. Therefore, Zhang Heng finally chose to take things as they are, not deliberately alienated and not too enthusiastic about how to treat Irene Adler.
Better than Sherlock Holmes, he doesn't always fight alone. He has a baker street team, has the contacts accumulated when helping the police solve cases, and has friends in all walks of life. If he wants to win the competition with him, Zhang Heng also needs the help of friends.
Irene Adler, as one of the only four who beat Sherlock Holmes, may be a good choice.
"Although, although I'm a little angry about your leaving, it's offset by your coming back at the end. Besides, thank you for waiting outside to congratulate me, although you didn't bring flowers." The singer winked.
…………
It was a long night for many people. When Zhang Heng returned to 221B Baker Street, Holmes did not fall asleep. Instead, he was playing with an Amazon arrow in his room.
Although he has just walked around the gate of death, his spirit seems to be more excited.
As he said, the more difficult the problem is, the more elated he is. On the contrary, his plain life is equal to murdering his life. Seeing Zhang Heng enter the door, he says, "it's interesting that you didn't send her home."
"I don't think our relationship is that good." Zhang Heng said, "and don't worry, she and I are not the kind of relationship you think."
"That's good, otherwise the world will have a mediocre person in love and lose an excellent detective." Said Holmes.
"What did you ask from those barbers?" Zhang Heng did not continue the topic.
"I'm glad you remember our case, but I'm sorry, as I guessed, they're not part of Mr. M's Gang, but at least I know who beat us in the theater tonight."
"He hit you, but I hit him, thank you." Zhang Heng set the right path."It doesn't matter. It doesn't make any difference to me. In a word, the guy's name is Carlson. According to him, he works in a gun factory, but these two messages are probably false. He and the barbers met when they were drinking. As I said, the Prussians in London like to hang out. He ran into the barber shop and said that bad people were chasing him, so he went to the barber shop The people in the barber's shop share a common hatred. They closed down and had a big fight with you. "
"Wait a minute, they don't know that guy very well, so you don't mean you didn't ask anything." Zhang Heng frowned.
"That's true, but fortunately I've played with him before, and my neck was not pinched for nothing."
"Well?"
Holmes put down his blow arrow. "That guy's skill is extraordinary, and his moves are simple and practical. Especially when he put me down, he obviously joined the army. He's a Prussian, which I've told you before. In addition, he's very easy to gamble. I saw the watch on his right hand, which should be quite valuable, but there are pawn tickets on it Oh, this is the habit of London pawnbrokers. They use the tip of a needle to engrave the ticket number on the back of the watch. This method is like hanging a sign, which can avoid the risk of losing or confusing the number. But it's hard for the naked eye to see it. When I struggle, I touch it. There are at least three numbers, which means that he has been in the pawnbroker for three times, but then redeemed it, which means that he has been in the pawnbroker for some time You'll get a lot of money every now and then, the question is, where does the money come from
"Mr. m?"
"That's right. We'll go to the casino tomorrow. I have a hunch that we are very close to Zhengzhu." Said Holmes.
