Sherlock Holmes is not a warp god.

Chapter 71 The Emperor's Apprentices' Family Gathering

Fren agreed wholeheartedly; he and Mycroft definitely needed to change their clothes.

At this moment, Fren and Mycroft were in the old town of the city, and Lagerfeld Clothing Store was just two blocks away. They didn't even need to take a taxi; it was just a short walk.

However, Fren's flamboyant manner in the city is somewhat unsightly and could easily be mistaken for a pervert.

When they arrived at the clothing store, Fren didn't ring the doorbell; he simply pushed the door open and went inside.

Mr. Lagerfeld had seen it all before, and he remained unfazed by the sight of Fren in his ragged clothes and the bullet hole in Mycroft's chest.

"I have the finished product for your custom-made suit next month." Mr. Lagerfeld walked into the storeroom behind the counter, took out a box and a tie, and handed them to Mycroft.

Mycroft orders a new suit every month; as a politician, he has to keep up with the times. This particular suit, however, is quite ordinary; it's not the 6000 ducatium gold-plated suit he wore before, but only 1500 ducats.

As for Fren....

Mr. Lagerfeld did not go into the storeroom, but instead went to the tailoring room, his workshop where he made clothes by hand.

There was a suit hanging right next to the worktable, not in its box.

"This is the suit you ordered yesterday." Mr. Lagerfeld handed the suit to Fren, and then picked out a pair of shoes that fit Fren.

To Fren's surprise, he had come here yesterday to buy a suit for the Suspended Family Association and was quite interested in the gold-plated watches by Mr. Lagerfeld. Mr. Lagerfeld told him that it would take a week to make them.

It's only been one night; the old man is quite efficient.

This garment, meticulously crafted by an alchemist, possesses powerful physical and magical defense, immunity to most detection skills, and immunity to some mental influences. It has a one-year shelf life and can be renewed upon expiration.

Mycroft's clothes have a one-year shelf life, and Fren's clothes also have a one-year shelf life.

"Thank you for 54000 ducats." Mr. Lagerfeld put together the two suits, along with shoes, ties, and other clothing, and handed the Holmes brothers a check for their signature.

Looking at the number, Fran couldn't help but admire the old man's business acumen. Converted to RMB, it was probably over a million.

Mycroft stepped forward and rubbed the cuff of the garment with his hand. The eldest brother of the Holmes family paused for a moment, then said to the tailor who had made clothes for four generations of the Holmes family, "Thank you, Mr. Lagerfeld."

His tone was curt because Mycroft rarely said thank you.

At least in Fren's memory, he never heard Mycroft express his gratitude.

Mr. Lagerfeld simply tapped the check with his fingertip and said nothing.

Mycroft picked up a pen and signed his name on it.

Fren and Mycroft took their clothes and went into the changing room.

When he came out again, Fren had transformed into a dashing young man, standing in front of a full-length mirror admiring his own stunning good looks.

He definitely has good genes in this life; it's like a top-tier enhancement of his looks from his previous life. He's looking more and more like a Chinese version of Hengchao.

Mr. Lagerfeld raised his head from behind the counter and looked at the two brothers with a slight smile on his lips.

More than a decade ago, three boys came here to learn how to wear suits like adults, and now they have all grown up.

After looking the two brothers over a few times, Mr. Lagerfeld was quite satisfied with his two clothes hangers.

Mr. Lagerfeld could tell that each of the accessories Mycroft wore served a purpose. These were all custom-made by Mycroft elsewhere, consistent with his usual style.

But Fren was different; the tie clip and cufflinks on his chest clashed somewhat with the dark gray suit with a hint of dark gold.

Tie clips are fine; I usually hide them under my suit jacket.

The cufflinks will be showing.

"Take it off, I'll alter it for you, and you can pick it up tomorrow," Mr. Lagerfeld said, pointing to the cufflinks on Fren's sleeve.

Fren didn't understand what he meant. These cufflinks could withstand some attacks from the warp and were a graduation gift from Sherlock. He looked at Mycroft, and seeing his elder brother nod slightly, he took off the cufflinks and placed them on the counter.

Fren guessed what Mr. Lagerfeld was going to do. He remembered the entry he saw when he first met Mr. Lagerfeld after his memories were awakened: "A tailor with excellent skills and his own understanding of art."

In fact, Fren also felt that the style of the cufflinks was a bit flamboyant. These were Sherlock's trophies, not custom-made, so it was normal for them to clash with Fren's style.

However, given the old man's extreme strictness regarding art, Fren suspected he might be a follower of the musicians. Followers of the benevolent father are generally greedy, while followers of the musicians are mostly quite obsessive. It's similar to obsessive-compulsive disorder; they strive for perfection in everything, finding ultimate pleasure only in this.

After the Holmes brothers said goodbye and left the tailor shop, Mr. Lagerfeld picked up a cufflink. The craftsmanship was indeed excellent, but the taste was rather questionable; he wondered which old friend had made it.

It was almost noon when we left the clothing store.

Fren and Mycroft took a taxi to Eden Academy.

The so-called parent-teacher meeting is actually a meeting for parents to visit the school for academic discussions.

However, the Eden Academy's parent-teacher conference was different. First, it had strict restrictions on attendees; only the Emperor's apprentices and their parents were invited. Alumni who had previously received the title of Emperor's apprentice were also invited. Eden Academy alumni were found in the political, business, artistic, and academic worlds.

Each parent-teacher meeting is an exchange of power and influence, which is one of the reasons why Eden Academy has such a great influence.

Today, after the graduation ceremony, there will be a parent-teacher meeting, and even Mycroft and Fren will be subject to strict checks. Security at Eden Academy is already tight because many wealthy parents don't mind donating money to create a safer learning environment for their children.

During the family reunion, many important figures attended, and the security level was raised again.

"Mycroft Holmes, Francessoko Holmes!"

'

As soon as Fren and Mycroft stepped into the Smart Building, they heard someone calling their names.

Turning around, they saw an elderly man with a thin face and wearing a monocle waving at them.

"Very good, very elegant!"

When the two brothers came forward, the old man looked them up and down and a smile appeared on his face.

Fren smiled and said, "Long time no see, Professor Henry Henderson. I hope you stay as healthy as you are now."
