Personality V: I will save everything

After working so hard, finally...

Norton's arm was stuck firmly in his stomach as if it were glued by strong glue. No matter how hard everyone tried, they couldn't pull it out.

They racked their brains and tried every possible way. Holmes even found a crowbar and tried to use it to pry Norton's stuck hand open.

However, all these efforts seemed so futile. The moment the crowbar came into contact with Norton, it seemed to be swallowed up by a powerful force and quickly melted into a pool of molten iron.

What's worse is that Norton's body temperature is already incredibly high at this moment. After all, he is now made of lava.

This causes any object that attempts to touch him to be melted instantly by the high temperature and become completely useless.

It is worth mentioning that Holmes' hand was unfortunately burned. Fortunately, Andrew happened to be there, and he acted quickly to provide Holmes with a temporary treatment plan.

Andrew's treatment method was somewhat special, he used some plant leaves that Holmes had never seen before. These leaves were carefully applied to Holmes' injured hand, as if it were a mysterious treatment.

Although Holmes had doubts about the efficacy of the leaves of this plant, he immediately felt a wonderful change when the leaves touched his skin. The burned area, which was originally burning and painful, seemed to be covered by a cool feeling, and the pain gradually subsided.

Holmes looked at his hands in surprise. The originally red and swollen skin began to return to normal and the marks of burns were slowly disappearing.

He couldn't help but feel curious about Andrew's treatment method, and at the same time he developed a strong interest in these magical plant leaves.

But the focus now is not to study the magical leaves of this plant, but to find a way to pull Norton's hand out of the hole in his stomach, otherwise how will he live in the future?

Having said that, judging from Norton's expression, he seemed to have given up struggling.

“Mi sono fatta male. Come diavolo l'hai fatto? (I am so f*cking impressed. How on earth did you do this?)

Lucchino, who was helping on the side, could no longer bear it and finally blurted out a swear word.

However, this scene did not escape Holmes' eagle-like sharp eyes. He immediately realized that what Lucchino said was actually Italian!

Holmes raised his eyebrows slightly, revealing a hint of surprise, but his tone remained calm: "Are you Italian?"

Lucchino was so absorbed in wrestling with Norton's arm that he had no time to think about anything else. When he heard Holmes' question, he answered subconsciously, "Yes."

As he said this, Lucchino did not even look up at Holmes. His entire attention was focused on how to pull Norton's stuck arm out.

Although he had tried his best, the arm was stuck there as if under a spell, making all his efforts in vain.

Holmes did have some impression of this gentleman named Lucchino. From the first time he met Lucchino, he had always maintained a human appearance. He looked gentle and elegant, like a knowledgeable scholar.

However, this alone does not mean much. After all, appearances can often be deceiving.

Without much thought, Holmes could conclude that Lucino was no ordinary human being. The reason was simple: just now, when Norton's arm was grabbed by Lucino with his bare hands, Holmes witnessed this scene with his own eyes.

You know, Holmes had tried to touch Norton's body with a crowbar before, but the moment the crowbar touched Norton's skin, his hand holding the crowbar was immediately burned as if it had been roasted by fire.

Luchino, on the other hand, was able to grab Norton's arm with his bare hands without any hesitation and was completely unharmed.

The difference was so obvious that Holmes knew that Luchino was definitely not an ordinary human being. As for his true appearance, Holmes did not know.

After all, Luchino seemed to have always intended to appear in human form, which made Holmes embarrassed to ask directly.

After all, such a question might seem a bit rude.

.................................................. ........................

After a long and difficult struggle, Norton finally succeeded in getting out of the predicament.

This was no easy task, however, and required Lucchino to carefully select a special reagent from among his many deeds.

This reagent is crucial because it is the only thing that can prevent Norton's body from vaporizing immediately when touched.

After careful consideration, Lucchino finally found the right reagent and carefully sprinkled it on Norton's body.

Then the rest of the people worked together and used all their strength to grab Norton's body and arms.

They held on tightly, not daring to relax even a little, for fear that they would accidentally put Norton back in danger.

Time passed by minute by minute, and everyone was anxious, but they did not give up.

After many attempts and adjustments, they finally found a suitable angle and strength and successfully pulled the hand out of Norton's stomach.

.................................................. ........................

"So that's why you burned your hand and brought back a bunch of leaves?" Mycroft looked at Holmes suspiciously, his heart full of helplessness and confusion.

He really couldn't understand what his younger brother was thinking.

First he complained about being annoying, then he ran to the Golden Rose Theater like a headless fly and ended up burning his hands. That wasn’t all, he even brought back a bunch of weird leaves!

However, Holmes seemed completely unaware of his brother's dissatisfaction. He fiddled with the leaves on his own, with an excited smile on his face.

"Oh, my dear brother, don't underestimate these leaves," said Holmes proudly. "Andrew brought them back for me. He is such a generous man."

Mycroft rolled his eyes, wondering who on earth this Andrew was and why he was hanging out with his weird brother.

But seeing that Holmes was so happy, he didn't say anything more.

"By the way, how is the burn on your hand?" Mycroft suddenly remembered this and asked with concern.

"Oh, it is all right now," Holmes replied nonchalantly. "In fact, I had the leaves on my hand for less than ten minutes before the burn was completely healed. But Andrew insisted on keeping the bandage on, to prevent infection."

Mycroft listened and muttered to himself that Andrew was really wasting his time. But seeing Holmes so happy, he could not pour cold water on him and could only shake his head helplessly.

.................................................. ........................

When Holmes asked Andrew if he could give him some leaves for research, Andrew was very generous and handed him the leaves without hesitation.

However, when Holmes further inquired whether he could get some seeds, Andrew politely declined.

Holmes knew the reason very well.

The leaf has such a miraculous effect that it can heal wounds so quickly that it is really amazing. If this leaf is widely spread and used, it will undoubtedly have a revolutionary impact on today's medicine, politics and even warfare.

First of all, from a medical point of view, the emergence of this leaf may completely change the traditional treatment methods and drug development direction.

Rather than relying on complicated surgeries or lengthy recovery processes, doctors may be able to quickly heal injuries using just this leaf.

This will undoubtedly greatly improve medical efficiency and save more lives.

Secondly, on a political level, the value of this leaf is inestimable.

A country or organization that possesses this leaf may gain a huge advantage in international affairs, sparking competition and scramble among nations.

It may even become a strategic resource, affecting the balance of international relations.

Finally, the application of this leaf is even more subversive in the field of warfare.

Soldiers being able to quickly recover from injuries would fundamentally change the form and outcome of war.

Soldiers who might have lost their combat effectiveness due to serious injuries can now quickly return to the battlefield, which will undoubtedly have a profound impact on the course and outcome of the war.

In addition, Holmes also realized that if this magical leaf fell into the hands of people with evil intentions, the consequences would be disastrous.

These people may use it for personal gain or even to create chaos and destruction.

Therefore, Andrew did not hand the seeds to Holmes easily, also out of concern for the potential risks of the leaves.

.................................................. ........................

When Holmes dropped an unknown chemical on a leaf again, Mycroft opened the door and left without hesitation.

The scene was as if the room suddenly caught fire!

Who would have thought that just a drop of chemical reagent could produce such a violent chemical reaction with the leaf.

The entire room was shrouded in a thick smoke, making it almost impossible to see the surrounding environment.

Mycroft began to wonder whether Sherlock could still see his feet.

After all, in such thick fog, vision is greatly obstructed, and even people with the best eyesight may find it difficult to clearly distinguish the outlines of objects.

However, Mycroft did not go far. He stood on the street and looked up at the second-floor window, where thick smoke continued to billow out. He had to be on guard at all times to prevent any firefighters from running in.

The main reason was that the situation on the second floor looked like a fire, a big fire at that.

Some nearby residents even saw the thick smoke and rushed over with buckets of water.

Mycroft had to stop them and tell them that Holmes was just doing an experiment on the second floor and there was no fire.

.................................................. .......................

"................"

Time seemed to freeze at this moment. Mycroft just stared at Holmes quietly. His eyes were like a deep pool, making it difficult to understand.

Holmes was like a child who had made a mistake. He kept his head down and did not dare to look his brother in the eye. His hands were clenched tightly together, as if he was trying hard to suppress his inner anxiety.

The silent atmosphere made people feel a little depressed, and the reason was actually very simple - Holmes stayed on the second floor for a full half an hour!

Mycroft watched the continuous stream of smoke, which showed no sign of abating, and Holmes made no move to come out.

A sinister premonition suddenly flashed through his mind. Could it be that Holmes had fainted?

As soon as this thought came to him, Mycroft rushed upstairs without hesitation, his steps were hurried and panicked. When he opened the door to the second floor, a thick smoke rushed in his face, choking him to the point that he could hardly breathe.

But he didn't care about that and quickly looked for Holmes in the smoke.

Finally, he saw Holmes lying on the ground, his body motionless, obviously unconscious.

Mycroft's heart sank suddenly. He immediately rushed forward, hugged Holmes in his arms, and hurriedly left this dangerous place.

Fortunately, thanks to Mycroft's timely discovery and rescue, Holmes' life was not in danger.

But this incident also made Mycroft realize that even someone as smart as Holmes can make mistakes, and these mistakes can have unexpected consequences.

So Mycroft also used the method they used most often when they were young.

"Confiscated."
