Chapter 10 the Blind Banker part 3
They entered the museum Sherlock and Jean showed the receptionist their cards explaining they worked with the police and needed to talk to Andy about Soo-Lin Yao.
The guard showed them to the place she worked at and brought Andy though Sherlock asked questions "When was the last time you saw here?" "Um.. About three days ago here at the museum this morning I was told that she resigned just like that left her work unfinished" Sherlock turned back "What was the last thing she did her final afternoon?" Taking Jean and Sherlock though to the back he turn the lights on and started to talk again "She does this demonstration… for the tourist it a type of tea ceremony she would have packed her things and put them away over here" Unlocking the doors Maya rushed over to a statue and growled Sherlock and jean walked up and saw the same marking…. No these where different but still Chinese numbers.
Exiting the building Jean was getting tiered she wanted to go back and sleep but said nothing as they walked down the stairs… rather Sherlock walked down the stairs Jean took the ramp. "Sherlock" A male voice appeared from the side of the building a young man came rushing over to them. "I found something you would like" nodding they followed the man clearly Sherlock knew who this young man was Sherlock whispered to Jean "This was who I spoke to this afternoon" "Ah.. ok then"
The man led them down to a underground skateboard park there was graffiti all over the wall keeping Maya close to her Jean kept back a little.
"Ah.. yes you want to hid a tree the forest would be the best place for it people would walk right past and not know anything about it just look the other way" "THERE" The young man showed them at last on the wall parts hidden under other graffiti work Sherlock smiled "same paint?" "yep checked it out myself I would know that anywhere"
Thanking the young man Sherlock turned to Jean "If we are going to decipher this code we are going to have to look for more evidence."
Agreeing with Sherlock Jean said "Well what do you need me to do?" "I want you to go home and rest you are still not well." "What… no I can help I won't do a lot I promise just stick to the saver places won't go anywhere near rails" "I don't think…" "It fine" "GOOD GOD LET YOUR GIRLFRIEND IN ON THE FUN" The young man said Sherlock blushed just as much as Jean did "She not my girlfriend."
"Well whatever dude let the chick have a shot" "You do realize I am much older then you how old are you?" "17" "Yeah.. I am most certainly note a chick thank you." Turning back to Sherlock she pleaded "Please" "Alright just… keep yourself safe" "can't promise you that Sherlock but I won't go rushing into danger"
Leaving it at that She walked around London for what seems like a good hour to maybe two hours before she found herself walking along the tracks till she spotted a wall there where Chinese marking all over it taking her phone out she took a picture of the wall then rushed off to find Sherlock… well rushed as much as she able. She found him further down the tracks ten minutes down "I found it I found more Chinese writing"
She showed Sherlock to the wall but was gutted when there was a blank wall… thanking her quick thinking that she had taken a picture she was about to get her phone when Sherlock was touching her head gently spinning her around "What are you doing?" "Jean just considerate close your eyes" "What why why what you doing" she felt her body panicking "Hush I AM NOT going to hurt you Jean I just need you to think now… I need you to maximize your visual memory try to picture what you saw can you picture it?" Jean felt slightly dizzy "Yeah I can just let go" "can you remember it?" "yes Sherlock please" Sherlock let her go but kept talking "Can you remember the pattern?" "Yes for goodness sake Sherlock just me get my phone out" But Sherlock was blabbering "How much of it do you remember?" "Look don't worry Sherlock because the average Humans Memory on visual is only 62% accurate"
Pushing Sherlock away Jean sighed sitting down in her walker seat she sighed "Well don't remember I know all off it" "really" Sherlock said while looking down at her. "yes I have a picture on my phone I been trying to tell you now for the last 2 minutes"
Sighing deeply Sherlock help Jean out of her walker seat and they headed home, Jean took her early evening tablets with a cup of tea and feed Maya then had got two small bowls and filled them with a light meal of vegetable Pasta soup she made yesterday Serving a bowl up to Sherlock he glanced at her "not hungry I don't eat on cases" "That why I only made Soup… please you can eat it at any chance you get it does not have to be eaten now just eat it when we clear the code" Sherlock glanced at her once more Fingers tapping against his chin he took in Jeans figure she was tiered that much was obvious, that contributing to her being VERY pale her hands showed that her body was almost out of body fuel for the day mixed in the tremors and droopy eyes.
Slowly He took the soup it was light and would not in danger his thinking Patten.. plus his stomach was telling him to eat. "I sagest you sit down before you fall down Jean. I will eat" Seeing the happy look on the women's face made Sherlock happy knowing he had at least eased her mind buy knowing he was eating.
They eat in silences and no sooner has Sherlock finished the bowl did he go back to the mirror and wall taking in the notes and writing. Jean sat back in her chair wrapped up in her blanket drifting off "Always in pairs Jean" startled awake again "Hmm?" "Number Jean comes in partners why did he pain it so close to the railway thousands of people pass by there every day" "could he be trying to communicate?" Jean yawned again stretching her arms in the air willing her body to stay awake. "Of course he wants information and so he communicate with his people in the underworld whatever was stolen he wants it back but it somewhere here in this code"
Standing up with her blanket wrapped up around her Jean walked up to Sherlock "We can't crack this without Soo Lin Yao's help" "grate" Jean said about the take the blanket off her shoulders But Sherlock placed his hand on her shoulders "no I need to speak to Soo Lin… YOU go to bed your about to fall over."
Throwing the blanket onto the chair she grabbed Maya's harness and her normal walking aids "I am coming with you I can rest in the morning besides Soo Lin might find it easier to talk to a female." Not saying much on the subject they both went back to the museum. Finding Andy once again they cornered him in the room from before. "Two men who traveled back from China where murdered and their killer left messages in hang Zhou numerals" "Soo Lin is in danger if you don't help us that cipher was just the same Patten as the others he means to kill Soo Lin as well" Jean finished from her walker seat. Andy rubbed the back of his head "Look I tried everywhere I called friends I know she hang with the café she stops and drinks on a daily habit just round the corner from here on her brakes. I mean I don't know where she gone for all I know she could thousands of miles away by now."
Jean saw Sherlock staring at something turning around he was looking at the tea pots. "Tell me more about those tea pots."
"The pots where her obsession they need urgent work apparently if they dry out the clay can start to crumble apparently your meant to keep making tea in them" Jean glanced to Andy "Did Soo Lin tell you that?" "yes she… I care about her very much I want to help but…" "If you show the amount you pay attention to her like you did with the tea Pots then I think you might have a chance" "Jean don't make false promises" Glaring back to Sherlock She shook her head "Some WOMEN like to be shown attention to but don't like being treated like delicate pottery we have our thoughts and feelings and if you just show to Soo Lin you pay attention to her then…" "Yesterday only one of those pots where shining now there are two" Jean bent down "You think she still here in the building?" "Well won't know till we have a stake out"
They made their way to the back workshop slowly opening the door Jean indicated for Maya to be silent which thankfully the dog did She watched as Sherlock edges his way over to a table where Soo Lin was sitting "Fancy a biscuit with that tea?" The poor women almost dropped the pot thankfully idiot Sherlock catches it. "Come now don't want to be braking that centuries old don't you know" Jean turned the lights on walking over to them She held her hand out "Hello"
They both then took out their badges showing that they both worked with the police "So you saw the cipher? Then you know he is coming for me" Sherlock nodded "You been cleaver to avoid him so far" "I had to finish to finish this work but I know it only a matter of time before he dose find me" "Who is he have you met him before?" Sherlock asked Soo Lin nodded "When I was a girl we met in china I recognized his signature" "The Cipher you mean?" Jean asked "Yes only he would do this Zhi Zhu"
Jean was not sure what she meant "Zhi Zhu?" "The spider" Sherlock explained to her they watched as Soo Lin took her shoes off to relive a tattoo mark on the back of her heals. "You know this mark?" She asked Sherlock "yes it the mark of a Tong" Turning back to Jean He finished "Ancient crime syndicated based in China"
Agreeing with Sherlock Soo Lin continued "Every foot solder bears the mark you can't get away from it everyone who hauls for them" Jean took a moment "Hauls… Oh you mean smuggling?" Placing her shoe back on Soo Lin Continued "I was 15 at the time my parents where dead I had no lively hood I no way of surviving day to day except to work for the bosses" "Who are they?" Sherlock silently asked.
Soo Lin hesitated "They are called the black lotus by the time I was 16 I was taking thousands of pounds worth of drugs over the border into Hong Kong… but I managed to leave that world behind me I came to England they gave me a job here first as a cleaner then when I was 19 I was offered to take over the tea Pot ceremony I was happy life was so good I had a flat a job but…" "He came looking for you" Sherlock finished nodding Soo Lin simply said "Yes I had hopped that after 5 years maybe they would have forgotten me but they never do… in a small community such as ours they are never truly far away they never really let you leave"
Tears came down Soo Lin's face "He came to my flat he asked me to track down something that was stolen" "But you had no idea what it was that was stolen?" " I refused to help he even threatened my colleagues if I did not help.. but I still said no." "Ah.. you mean Andy?" Jean said Soo Lin nodded "I care for Andy I really did… do… I decided to hid not allow any one not even Andy to know where I was" Jean stopped her "You knew this man well when you were back in china?"
Soo Lin sighed "Oh yes you see he was my brother" Handing Soo Lin a tissue Soo Lin continued after whipping her eyes "Two orphans we had no choice we could work for the black Lotus, or starve on the street like beggars and prostitutes but… my brother has become their puppet in the power of the one they call Shan the black lotus General but I still turned my brother away he said that I had betrayed him next day I came to work and the cipher was there waiting on the statue.
Sherlock got out the pictures they managed to get "Are you able to decipher any of these?" Soo Lin looked at them "Yes these are numbers that one of the paintings that a one and the other one on the back shelf is 15" Sherlock impatiently interrupted "Yes we know those but what the code?" Soo Lin glanced up "All the smugglers know it based on a book" Maya was up and growled in the direction of the doors then the lights were out. "Oh.. god… he is here Zhi Zhu has found me"
Jean grabbed her "I will not let you die tonight do you hear me" As she said that Sherlock rushed out the door and that was it Struggling to keep her mind on Soo Lin Jean knew that even Sherlock could look after himself "Please I will protect you just start deciphering that code for us" Taking out her gun She held it close cocking her head down to Maya she said "What my back girl"
Nodding Maya turned so she was facing away from Jean. "So.. would you pay that lad Andy any attention when you get out of here?" Soo Looked up "He would not want me not after my history" Writing down the code more Jean sighed "Well don't you think that up to him to find out? He knows that you were involved with the smugglers we told him… it up to you what to do from there" Silent even with the sound of gun shots in the air could be hard there was a matter of seconds of silence before Jean realised that something was not right Grabbing Soo Lin she forced her down into a crate like box standing in front of her she held her gun in front in time for Maya to bark.
"Stay right there I am armed as well and trained" Jean finished the footsteps stopped but continued there was a man Jean could hear Soo Lin talk "Liang" The brother aimed his gun at Soo Lin but Jean forced her body at him the brother shot but it did not kill Soo Lin Maya from the side pulled at the brother once before the brother was able to throw Jean off him knocking her to the side trying again to aim for Soo Lin again the second was about to go off but Jean took hold of her walking crutch and knocked the brother over she heard the second fire Jean could also could hear Sherlock running back in knowing he could not get his job done tonight the brother ran away reaching the back window braking it open and jumped out.
Sherlock was with her within moments Jean thought's went back to Soo Lin who was still kneeling down on the floor the bullet had grazed her leg and shoulder there was blood but not life threatening ringing for an ambulance they managed to wrap Soo Lin in a blanket and outside just as the ambulance arrived "We just managed to escape an assassin please take care of Soo Lin" Sherlock handed the doctor a note "Give the number a call before you get to the hospital you will find there will be protection arriving within the hour."
Leaving Soo Lin with the paramedics they went to Scotland yard with sheer determination to get that thick headed Dimmock to get his ass off his seat and listen to them for once.
