When Zhao Weike entered the house, Helen was already holding Doro and feeding him oranges at the dining table.

Helen's movements were extremely gentle, as if she truly regarded Doro as her own daughter. Under the sunlight, she radiated an almost divine maternal glow.

Under such radiant light, Doro, who is usually extremely lively and active, quieted down, swinging his soft little feet and waiting for Helen to feed him. Although his mouth was full of orange juice, he still had a well-behaved smile on his face.

This scene, witnessed by Zhao Weike, caused his heart to tremble countless times, and his gaze towards Doro and Helen became increasingly tender.

Because of Helen's illness, Sherlock's intervention saved Helen, but it also deprived her of the right to be a mother.

The appearance of Doro seemed to fulfill the dreams of Zhao Weike and Helen, which is the main reason why the couple loves Doro so much.

After feeding Doro a whole orange, Helen gently wiped Doro's mouth, picked him up and placed him in Zhao Weike's arms, glaring at him threateningly.

"Keep an eye on Doro. I'm going to cook. Don't forget to call Sherlock over for lunch! That brat's probably engrossed in his messy alchemy again, which is why Doro's running around like that."

Faced with Helen's protective threat, which resembled that of a mother hen guarding her chicks, Zhao Weike, the god of death, could only temporarily back down and nodded to Helen while holding Doro.

After receiving Zhao Weike's assurance, Helen finally smiled with satisfaction and turned to walk towards the kitchen. Zhao Weike then carried Doro to the living room, and the two began to play around.

Despite his small size and somewhat abstract art style, Doro's speed and agility are undeniably top-notch, a fact that Zhao Weike had already discovered long ago.

Take a game like dodgeball for example. Even if Zhao Weike used his killer skills, he wouldn't be able to let that little sandbag touch Doro.

Perhaps inheriting Sherlock's personality, Doro's expression towards Zhao Weike after each game victory always inexplicably made Zhao Weike feel a surge of anger.

Even so, Zhao Weike would only curse Sherlock in his heart for corrupting Doro, without showing any other emotion towards Doro.

Of course, despite this, it is undeniable that there is still an impact. For example, Zhao Weike basically doesn't play any games related to physical exertion with Doro anymore.

After watching TV with Doro all morning, Zhao Weike picked Doro up and headed towards Sherlock's house, seeing that it was almost time.

After opening the door to Sherlock's house, Zhao Weike, guided by Doro, headed towards the study. The moment he pushed open the study door, despite being mentally prepared, he was still speechless with shock at the sight before him.

In the middle of the room, a beautiful and luxurious-looking spear floated silently in mid-air, covered with various formations and colorful runes.

Sherlock's left arm has been completely transformed into an alchemical tool. Each time the dozen or so thin, tentacle-like, flexible mechanical arms collide with the spear, a blinding light is emitted, and then the runes and arrays on the spear change.

As for Sherlock himself, he seemed to be completely blind to the blinding light and the runes and arrays floating on the gun.

Before Sherlock, the enormous alchemy spellbook remained open and was constantly being turned. While searching for something in the book, Sherlock used his right hand in conjunction with the mechanical arm of his left hand to form arrays and runes that were then integrated into the spear.

No matter how many times I see it, I can't help but feel awe and longing!

Watching Sherlock engrossed in alchemy and the ever-present, uniquely alchemical radiance, Zhao Weike, holding Doro, couldn't help but sigh.

Sherlock, who was working, seemed to be affected by Zhao Weike's subconscious remark. Sparks suddenly burst from the spear, and then all the dazzling runes and formations disappeared without a trace in an instant, leaving only the spear slowly floating to the table.

Zhao Weike, who witnessed this scene, was startled by the sudden turn of events and looked at Sherlock somewhat embarrassedly.

"I'm sorry, did I bother you?"

Upon hearing Zhao Weike's voice, Sherlock's probing gaze, which had been fixed on the spear, turned towards Zhao Weike's direction.

Upon seeing Zhao Weike holding Doro, Sherlock almost immediately understood what was happening. He closed his book, stood up, and spoke to Zhao Weike.

"It's alright, it has nothing to do with you. Repairing artifacts is very difficult, failure is normal. I'll trouble you to keep an eye on Doro for me, my dear Zhao Weike."

The first few sentences were all normal, but Sherlock added a cheeky "Zhao Weike" at the end, which instantly turned Zhao Weike's somewhat embarrassed expression into one of gritted teeth.

"Sherlock Flamel! I'll say it again, even if you translate it into the rabbit's language, my name is John Wick, not that damn Zhao Wick!"

But when faced with Zhao Weike, who was already somewhat flushed, Sherlock showed no sign of panic and maintained his smug expression.

"Okay, Zhao Weike, I understand. Is there anything else, Zhao Weike?"

Faced with Sherlock's close-range attack, Zhao Weike, after holding back for a long time, could only helplessly punch Sherlock in the shoulder and curse in annoyance.

"son of bixxth!"

Then, with a gentle expression, she lowered her head and spoke to Doro in her arms.

"Little Doro, come on, let's go get something good to eat, let's ignore your unreliable, third-rate dad!"

After saying that, she picked up Doro and walked out of the room without looking back.

Seeing the unusual tenderness Zhao Weike showed when facing Doro, and the almost heavenly voice he uttered, Sherlock rubbed his non-existent goosebumps with a look of disgust.

He raised a middle finger at Zhao Weike's back before following in his footsteps.

After years of getting along, Sherlock had long understood Zhao Weike and Helen's thoughts and intentions, so he naturally wouldn't misunderstand what Zhao Weike wanted to express.

Therefore, although Zhao Weike did not say it directly, Sherlock still shamelessly followed Zhao Weike to try Helen's cooking.

You should know that after Sherlock cooked a simple home-cooked meal for the two of them, Helen developed a deep love for Chinese food. Now, her culinary skills have long surpassed those of Sherlock, the rabbit who came from the native land, and she has become a true master chef.

Since then, Sherlock has been extremely enthusiastic about getting free meals, since the white food he had eaten before was really hard to swallow.
