The Third Holmes (𝗠𝗼𝗿𝗶𝗮𝗿𝘁𝘆 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗣𝗮𝘁𝗿𝗶𝗼𝘁 𝘅 𝗠𝗮𝗹𝗲 𝗬/𝗡)

CHAPTER 2

Three women can be seen gushing around two individuals.

"How Extraordinary!"

"How did the two of you know that he was in the army?!"

"It's amazing how the both of you could discover that!"

"Tell the truth, you both know him, don't you?"

"Indeed."

"Ladies, one at a time please." Y/N slightly spun his glass containing red wine with a charming smile on his face as the women began circling him and his older brother, Sherlock Holmes.

Sherlock has dark blue, wavy, shoulder-length hair that he has tied up in a ponytail. He has similarly dark blue eyes and is wearing a blue suit, with a white shirt with the first few buttons undone, and no tie or waistcoat.

When Sherlock invited him to go onboard the Noahtic to watch a ship-borne ballet, Y/N did not reject the offer since it means he gets to spend time with his older brother.

As they went on board the cruise, they then started a game that they used to play which was to make deductions about the people around them. Some of the women heard what they were doing and decided to listen to all of their deductions and felt entertained by the two brothers.

Y/N then went near to whisper something in his older brother's ear. "Sherly, why are you showing off to these women?"

Y/N continued, mirth in his eyes. "You hate them, they're not even your type."

"Tsk, shut it Y/N" Sherlock grumbled in annoyance.

They were interrupted when one of the ladies said, "What about him? Can you both guess what kind of work he does?

Both brothers then looked at the man that the ladies were referring to.

The person was a pale, thin young man with blond hair of medium length with prominent side bangs. One of his most striking features is his scarlet eyes.

His eyes remind me of fresh blood, Y/N shivered in thought as he examined him.

Sherlock's boastful voice interrupted his thoughts, "Can't you tell ladies? But it's so obvious."

Y/N rolled his eyes at his older brother's bragging.

The ladies then began to speak enthusiastically all at once.

"So you do know, don't you!"

"Come tell us."

"You have both already guessed correctly 10 times in a row so far."

"He's a mathematics professor," Y/N immediately said before his older brother could.

"Hey! Tsk, this man is a mathematician," Sherlock finished with a grumble while running his fingers through his hair as the said man now glanced at both of them.

One of the ladies then looked at the two brothers with admiration once again, "Eh, how do you both know?"

Y/N repeated the phrase his older brother said a while ago with a wink, "It's obvious, isn't it? Right, Sherly?" Y/N then looked at Sherlock with a smirk while his brother's eye just twitched in annoyance.

One of the pristine ladies with bangs suddenly approached the blond man.
"Please excuse us, Sir. We were having a bet."

The red-eyed man then went near to the small crowd gathered and asked in question, "A bet?"

"They could guess what a person's job is with just a glance, and so far, they both have not guessed wrong! Not even once!"

"Really, now." The man said with a bit of interest in his tone.
