"The time travel should be limited to that day. After all, there is no date display on the dial, and there are only twelve hour markers on it."

Lu Li held a wolf-headed sword crutch in one hand, a pocket watch in the other, and a wordless leather book under his arm.

In this way, all the belongings are kept on the body to avoid any unknown variables after time travel. If they are lost, you can cry everywhere.

"Perhaps we can use this to travel to the future. It is now eleven o'clock at noon. According to the scale on the dial, we can reach fifty-nine minutes and fifty seconds later."

Duke couldn't help but mention it, but in his heart he was not willing to go to the future.

After all, going back in time is an experience, and the latter has no guarantees.

"Let's talk about it later."

Pan Ming shook his head. He knew very well that he should not try unfamiliar things easily, especially props that involve time and cause and effect. He must be in awe.

"Do you have anything more important? Just in case, it's best to bring them all with you."

Lu Li's face was full of solemnity. After eleven hours, he returned to the very beginning of the day. Thinking about it, he felt crazy.

Can it be successful?

Is the scope of action the entire world or this city?

…

Various thoughts were swirling in Lu Li's mind.

At this time, Duke urged with a smile:

"We don't have any props and we are alone. Let's get started."

He had a strong premonition that this trip would be successful.

Under the gaze of two eyes, Lu Li pressed the screw crown and started to adjust the hands.

Eleven o'clock...ten o'clock...eight o'clock...

The sterling silver pointer moved across one mark after another without any pause in between.

Zero hours, zero minutes and one second.

With heavy breathing, Lu Li pressed the crown and waited for a miracle to happen.

Probably because it took a long time to cross, there was a clear sense of weightlessness this time compared to the last time. The three of them noticed that their bodies were getting lighter, and then the light within their sight began to dim.

Tick ​​tock, tick tock, tick tock.

The sound of heavy rain hitting the glass windows could be heard.

Silver-plated knives, forks and spoons, a glass basin for washing fingers, a waiter wearing a white waistcoat, holding a napkin under his arm, passing by, ready to be called upon at any time.

Looking at the selection of cheeses and various delicacies in front of them, Duke and Lu Li's eyes flashed with surprise.

"I didn't expect it to happen..."

Duke murmured.

This made Officer Wensley, who was enjoying the lobster juice, look up and ask: "Sir, what's wrong?"

"I am impressed by the quality of the food. These dishes are wonderful and acceptable innovations." Duke switched to English and prevaricated: "The room is large and airy, the waiters are clean, polite and efficient, and it is completely acceptable to spend a little more."

a little?

This is the world view of rich people.

Officer Wensley smiled helplessly, echoed a few words, and continued to immerse himself in the food.

One thing to say, the taste is indeed very good, and correspondingly, the price is also ridiculously high. Every time he thinks about this, the police officer can't help but feel guilty.

It's not considered a bribe, right?

For God's sake, I have worked diligently for so many years and I haven't even accepted a penny in bribes...

While Wensley felt guilty, the little boy Mi Gao felt a turmoil in his heart. He remembered that he was cooking in the kitchen, and the red wine stewed beef in the pot was almost cooked...

At the same time, Lu Li was keenly aware of the strange look on Mi Gao's face. After all, he was young and couldn't hide things in his heart.

"Sir...this..."

"Not enough? If you want something more, just order whatever you want." Lu Li handed him the menu without giving him a chance to speak.

The young boy opened his mouth, and finally swallowed all his doubts. When he saw Officer Wensley looking at him with doubtful eyes, he actively cooperated:

"I want to eat pudding, or some other sweet food."

"purchase."

On the side, Duke also realized something was wrong and responded with a smile, pretending to be a rich man with no shortage of money.

In fact, Mi Gao was already very full. He couldn't eat so much normally, but in order to cooperate, he could only hold on.

"The little guy should eat less sweets, as he will easily gain weight and get dental caries." Officer Wensley didn't notice anything unusual, but just lamented the child's appetite.

After saying this, he put down the spoon.

Twelve o'clock.

It was the time when the four of them were finishing their meal. If nothing else happened, the police officer would take the initiative to mention Holmes and wanted to pay him a visit.

At that time, he was cutting lamb chops.

"Guys, this is the last main course, pan-fried lamb chops. Is there anything else you need to serve?"

Just as he was thinking about it, a waiter came over with a smile and asked softly.

"Four more puddings, plus raisins."

"Hold on."

The world starts to change from this moment on.

The three of them expressed similar emotions, especially Mi Gao. If he hadn't understood Lu Li and Duke's hints, he would have thought it was a dream.

Only Officer Wensley was kept in the dark and continued to enjoy the delicious food.

Except for Mr. Holmes, it is rare to meet such a strange detective. He is not asking for a reward, but is simply interested in the case itself...

Duke should be lucky that the line of getting to know Holmes has not been broken.

"I leave this case to you two. After dinner, I would like to introduce a colleague to you."

The police officer looked mysterious.

Across the table, Lu Li checked the things he carried with him. The wolf-head sword crutch disguised as a walking stick was placed on his left hand side, as was the wordless vellum book.

Since the pocket watch was too important, he did not take it out rashly and waited until Officer Wensley was sent away.

"Mr. Holmes, is that correct?"

Duke began to try.

Everything was developing according to the normal track, and he decided to change from here.

Hearing this, Officer Wensley was stunned for a moment, then reacted and said with a smile: "Yes, you two live on the same street as him. They are neighbors. Do they know each other?"

"I've heard about it for a long time." Duke shook his head, "Unfortunately, I haven't seen it yet."

"It's okay. I'll introduce you to you two. Although this gentleman has a weird personality, he's easy to get along with."

Wensley was particularly enthusiastic.

If he went to see Holmes, he would have to miss the black silhouette. Therefore, the thoughts in Lu Li's mind raced like lightning.

Soon, he made a decision and asked:

"A while?"

"That's right, I just happened to be on my way."

"But, we are going to the East District to visit friends..."

Seeing the embarrassment on Lu Li and Duke's faces, Wensley said considerately, "If it's inconvenient for you two, we'll talk about it later when we have time."

Visiting Holmes was an impromptu decision that was not on his schedule, so the good-natured police officer didn't think too much about it.

Only the young boy Mi Gao looked strange, and silently made up his mind to act with Lu Li to find out what was going on.
