The path of genius evolution

Chapter 37

When Reid came back from the FBI with a tired face, Sherlock and John were standing face to face in the narrow corridor. They seemed to be arguing about something, but stopped when they saw Reid.

"Hello." Reid greeted them as he opened the door with a key. Although it was not in his style, the other party was Scott's guardian, which was necessary.

"Just came back from work? It's really hard work. It seems that your work is not easy. Why, does the fbi know how to squeeze employees?" Sherlock just glanced at them, and then turned to John, probably wanting to continue their topic, but the military doctor Mr. ignored him and walked straight to Reid.

John looked at him seriously: "Can we talk?"

Glancing at him, Reid didn't find a reason to refuse. He nodded and pushed the door open: "Please come in."

John looked back at Sherlock, and the curly-haired detective had no choice but to follow with a disdainful expression.

After taking his seat, Sherlock looked straight at Reid: "Before we start talking, can you tell us a little bit about Scott in your eyes?" Although there was nothing negotiable in his words.

"Is this important?" Reid asked, he didn't catch the detective's strong tone, but he didn't want to mention Scott to these two people he didn't know well.

In theory, they should be more familiar with Scott than they are, but it feels a bit delicate to ask this kind of question now.

John hurriedly rounded up the situation: "We have no malicious intentions, please believe this."

His sincerity touched Reid, biting his lower lip, Reid nodded.He didn't answer John, he was still very bad at such emotional communication: "Scott is a very special person..."

"Special? What's so special about him? Do you think he's good-looking? To be honest, it's just because of a different combination of genes. Or does his blue eyes and blond hair remind you of your junior high school deskmate? ?" Sherlock couldn't help interrupting him.

Reid replied without hesitation: "The word good-looking is seriously individualistic. Everyone has different aesthetic tendencies. You think he is good-looking and I say he is special has nothing to do with it. In addition, I have not studied in junior high school. I am 12 years old. When I was in high school."

John's facial expression was still in the funny look of trying to tell Sherlock to stop, even Sherlock was slightly taken aback.

But the quick-thinking consultant detective responded immediately: "Don't you think he is not good-looking? A genius who went to high school at the age of 12? It is indeed a very attractive gimmick, but it has nothing to do with Scott's special, right?"

"Since you have admitted that he is special, can I continue?" Reid asked calmly.

Sherlock reacted immediately, John couldn't help laughing afterwards, he tilted his head to one side and laughed out loud.

In the first round, Dr. Spencer Reid narrowly won the debate with his youthful wit—Sherlock thought the word quarrel would be an insult to what he was doing, and in fact this kind of childish activity could hardly be called a debate— — An experienced detective.

"He's strong and gentle..."

"Very strong? You should really see when he was taught by me or John. He was able to tear down this house when he was a child, just like all the bad boys. Of course, I guess it is different from yours when you were a child, because you were a complete coward when you were a child. , this point has not changed much even now. If you are attracted by his trivial things, you must have difficulty integrating into society, because your values ​​​​are too different from others." Sherlock said contemptuously, perhaps the words involved The message wasn't friendly, but he had to say it.

John wanted to cut in, but he couldn't.

Reid is not swayed at all, and being tough often stimulates his little confrontational psychology, which is why his attitude towards the doctor is very different from that of the detective, although the result is similar to all normal people: "Forgive me Frankly speaking, as far as the index of body index is concerned, I doubt that you can teach him a lesson now. Bullying children is really not a behavior worth promoting, let alone the fact that doctors have taught him a lesson. The profile shows that johnwatson He's a very gentle guy, and in a way Scott is more like him. I'm sure it's not as hard for me to fit in as it is for you."

Because Reid inadvertently praised John, his position in the military doctor's heart has risen a bit.

"Of course, because you are a federal agent, your experience as a child must have made you empathize with many people. You must like children very much, and being close to them can make you recall countless past experiences and the contrast of the status quo. You have a sense of accomplishment." Sherlock was keenly aware that he didn't answer this, "is it that good to be around those stupid people? Don't you feel that your brain is rusted?"

"If you have a better personality, you can also be a detective." Reid was unmoved, and he kept his nonchalant attitude.If the past can still shake him, make him overwhelmed and make him passive, then he is not qualified to stand by Scott's side. Everyone has their own misfortunes, but that's not a reason to feel sorry for yourself. "But I guess it's quite a difficult thing for you? You like to play against people, isn't it because you're afraid that even if you go along with them one day, you won't be rewarded accordingly? Can't believe other people , is actually a sign of weakness.”

Sherlock raised his eyebrows: "There are tens of thousands of detectives, but there is only one consultant detective in the world. As for playing against others? God, do I like to tangle with them? It's not just because they are so stupid that they don't know anything. Can’t you see? I’m afraid you have the least say in the issue of trust between human beings, I think your colleagues must not know that you are addicted to drugs.”

"What's the difference between relying on morphine occasionally and relying on nicotine all the time? It's just that the former needs rehab and the latter doesn't, but it hurts the people around them." Reid pointedly, "And I'll tell them that rehab has already started. "

"Stop!" John suddenly yelled, "You're digressing."

"..." Sherlock's lines were cut off.

"Sorry." Reid glanced at John without sincerity, his attention was basically on Sherlock now.While their conversations aren't too scientific, the detective's insight and understanding of humans show he's definitely not just a slob.

Looking at the two people in front of him, it's not hard to imagine why Scott grew up the way he is now.

"Scott is a very careful person, he is very active, and he is willing to give everything for others, as long as he can do it." Reid said and glanced at Sherlock, he always felt that this debate would continue.

And Sherlock didn't let him down either: "I don't know where he learned this inexplicably self-conscious and noble spirit of sacrifice."

"Inherited from his father." John added without changing his expression, obviously, the father he mentioned was Scott's biological father.Besides, his eyes had been on Reid, and he was far more interested in Reid than anything else, after all, it was the first time he had seen someone who could argue with Sherlock on equal terms.

And this person is Scott's boyfriend, if he is lucky, maybe he can see Sherlock's deflated expression a few more times, nothing is more pleasing than this.It would be even more reassuring if Scott could be found quickly.

"Well, his special agent father who sacrificed himself for his teammates is really great? Should I ask Mycroft to ask the Queen to award him a medal?" In Sherlock's view, this spirit of sacrifice is completely incomprehensible and insane behavior, which can only cause pain to those close to him.By the way, hannibal said that this behavior is understandable.

From Sherlock's point of view, if one of his actions could save Mycroft and make John sad, then he would definitely make the fat man a dead fat man.Even if mycroft and he were brothers, who cared?Anyway, the only person who cared at that time was also dead.

Reid didn't know how to evaluate Scott's behavior. Perhaps Scott's behavior was more in line with his work philosophy, but Sherlock was right.But this is the world, and it's full of all kinds of incomprehensible personalities.

Reid blinked. "I don't think what we're discussing here will help us find Scott."

"How did you know we were looking for Scott?" John was puzzled.

"I'm also a profiler." Reid showed a slight smile, "And the two are not difficult to profile."

Profiling a person has nothing to do with how good he is. On the contrary, excellent people are easier to profile. They have different characteristics than ordinary people. Compared with John, Sherlock's actions are actually easier to guess, provided that he has that IQ.

Sherlock glanced at him, preferring deduction to profiling.The difference between the two is that profiling is to describe people based on behavior, while deduction is to discover clues through observation, which is similar to the same approach but the same result.But the advantages and disadvantages of the two methods are not the point at the moment: "Can you find him?"

His light-colored eyes held the doctor's dark face in motionless, and his tone was serious enough to make one feel like a butterfly was dancing in his stomach.
