Operation Red Book

Today was a rare sunny day, with gentle breezes and clear skies. Ivy and Mrs. Hudson decided to take the quilts in the apartment out to dry in the sun.

Compared to the rainy weather, Ivy prefers the warm sunshine in spring. Compared to the damp and heavy quilt, the dryness rolled by the sun is more comfortable for Ivy.

After drying all the quilts, Ivy stretched comfortably, took the white water handed to her by Mrs. Hudson and drank it in one gulp. The leaked water drops flowed down her white neck into her collar and merged with the wet sweat stains.

Mrs. Hudson brought two wooden chairs, and the two of them enjoyed afternoon tea on the rooftop with hot black tea and sweet and sour berry tarts.

People were walking back and forth on the street, and carriages flashed by from time to time. Ivy couldn't see any expression on people's faces. Today was just another ordinary, peaceful day for Ivy and Mrs. Hudson, for the pedestrians on the street, and for the entire European island country.

"Is Joshua's toe better?" Mrs. Hudson said casually, taking a sip of her tea.

About a week after Mrs. Emerson's ball, Joshua was injured that night. Two toes on his right foot were broken and his ankle was slightly sprained. Although he was treated by Ms. Bell in time, he still needed to rest after a hundred days of recovery.

"It's better now. He was able to walk a long time ago, but he can't stand for long."

Ivy and Mrs. Hudson had taken care of him this week, and Joshua had already apologized to her and made it clear to her that he would sincerely invite her in the future.

Ivy was so angry that she laughed again. She had stopped being angry with Joshua a long time ago. Especially after talking with Dorian and Count Waite that day, Ivy realized that Joshua was her true companion and teammate.

At least, they share the same historical background and 21st century topics.

They have the same goal - to return to the 21st century. They also have intricate connections of interests and even know each other inside and out, so they don't have to worry about being betrayed one day.

"Is Sherlock away again? Did he go to Mr. Moriarty's house? Or is he dealing with work?"

Holmes was not seriously injured, but it was said that Moriarty was kicked by the headless knight's horse, his chest was burned, and his internal organs were also damaged to varying degrees.

After that incident, Moriarty applied for sick leave from the university where he taught and recuperated at home.

Holmes often went to Moriarty's house to disturb him. Although Holmes kept saying that he was going to take care of the patient, could he do housework? Could he wash clothes and cook? Could he take care of the wound?

Ivy immediately denied his statement. It was obvious that this was just an excuse for him to meet Moriarty.

"Today he said he was going to Buckingham Palace to meet the Queen. It was Mr. Mycroft who put him in the carriage."

In addition, this incident involved many people and caused serious social controversy, especially among the upper and middle classes.

Queen Victoria was very angry. In order to consolidate her rule, she ordered a thorough investigation of the matter and personally appointed the famous detective Sherlock Holmes who was involved in the case and the minister who supervised him, Sherlock's brother, Mycroft Holmes.

Of course, this is the public appointment. The secret appointment is naturally made by the Queen's SCO organization. I heard that they are very busy.

That night, Moriarty ignored Mrs. Emerson's pleas. He knew the extent of the harm of the matter and still contacted SCO secretly.

Unfortunately, when Mr. Victor arrived with Ms. Bell, Luna and Jacob, the Headless Horseman had already escaped on his undead horse.

Luna summoned the Killing Doll and quickly caught up with the Headless Horseman under Mr. Jacob's time reversal.

It is said that the two fought for several rounds in the fields outside the city. Although the Killing Doll had the upper hand, the Headless Knight finally burrowed into the ground and escaped.

Mr. Jacob communicated with God for more than ten minutes before he determined the direction and distance, and he and Victor caught up at the speed of light.

But when they arrived at the place where the Headless Horseman's aura remained, they only found a large pit and a set of charcoal-black empty shells.

After Holmes confirmed it, Victor announced on the spot that the Headless Horseman was dead, giving an explanation to Mrs. Emerson and the guests present.

SCO needs to write two documents, one is a case report on the Headless Horseman, and the other is a response to public opinion.
