2nd day Zhang Heng got up early in the morning and took a record—the case of lame Rickett and his abominable wife. If Zhang Heng remembered it correctly, this was the first case Sherlock Holmes detected as a detective. , Was mentioned in the original book, but there is no detailed content.

Zhang Heng came to the restaurant. Sherlock Holmes had sat there early and began to enjoy his toast and coffee. The two greeted each other, and then Zhang Heng also sat down opposite.

Holmes glanced at what was on Zhang Heng’s hand, “Oh, this case is quite interesting, although not at all difficult, but because I was a detective shortly then, it took me 3 days to complete the investigation, now It ’s only one morning. “

Zhang Heng laughed, but he did not hate the self-confidence in Holmes, or it was this kind of self-confidence that made Holmes a very personal character, which was sought after and loved by 10000 1000 readers. In fact, in daily life, Holmes is a very The humble man, just when it comes to his professional field, he will patrol his own territory like a lion.

After Zhang Heng had finished drinking milk, a knock on the door suddenly sounded downstairs.

Mrs. Hudson opened the door and saw Gregson standing outside. The latter swept away the anxiety before, and the whole person appeared proud of one’s success. He flew in like a burst of smoke, and said with a voice, “You have Read the morning newspaper? “

“It’s not too late.” Holmes looked at him with interest.

Gregson passed the “Echo” in his hand, “You can take a look, it’s freshly baked.”

Zhang Heng hearing this took the newspaper, turned to a report on the front page, and read it word by word.

The reporter first introduced the unnamed female body found on the Thames yesterday, and then talked about how Sergeant Gregson wisely found the factory where the female body was located, and then confirmed the identity of the female body. In the text, he also mentioned the police in Mr. Holmes. With the help of Yun Yun, the full text is only one sentence. Instead, there are several paragraphs that touted Sergeant Gregson’s wise alertness.

Gregson also blushed a bit when he heard this, and defended, “You gave me a lot of help, especially the clue of John Textile Mill, but you are not all right, and in front, that one is not the point … Please read on. Go on. “

Sherlock Holmes smiled and was not angry. He seemed to be accustomed to it. In fact, this is why the police in Scotland Yard like to come to him for help. He doesn’t care much about fame and fortune, and he won’t be a policeman who is finally handled because of the limelight. Taking it away and getting angry, on the contrary, he was more interested in the odd cases themselves.

Zhang Heng continued reading, which said that Gregson immediately took someone to the textile factory when he got the clue, and soon confirmed the identity of the unknown female corpse. Her name was Molly, and she came from the country a year ago. One of her aunts went to London to hire her, and it was her aunt who helped her find the job in the textile factory.

Because she is not a skilled worker, Molly ’s salary is pitiful, but her daily workload is not much. She works hard and earns just enough money to live, because her aunt ’s family also has 4 children to support. There is limited help available to her, and Molly can only rely on herself in this city.

Until she met Paul, Paul was one year older than her, but came to London three years earlier than her and worked in the chemical plant next door. She was already an old fritter in the chemical plant. She often made troubles. The reporter portrayed Paul. Become a treacherous cunning and lazy villain, and use sweet words to lie to the unexplained Molly, and finally finally couldn’t help but reveal the fox’s tail the night before.

After a brief investigation, Gregson found that Molly went to Paul after work that night. Then he took someone to attack Paul’s residence, where he found Molly’s clothing, which was recognized by the witness that Molly was wearing that night. This time the evidence is so firm that Paul can no longer deny it.

The reporter wrote emotionally in the following text-Officer Gregson took only half a day to crack such a strange case. Having such an outstanding sheriff is really a blessing for the people of London, and also appeals to the public In the future, we will cooperate with the police investigation and actively provide relevant clues to jointly maintain the security of the city.

Gregson ’s face was also very excited at this time, and said to Sherlock Holmes, “I do n’t want to be disrespectful to you, but forgive me to speak bluntly, no matter how smart people make mistakes, you are already very difficult to deal with. It can be seen from the corpse that she works in the John Textile Mill, and it is normal for her to make some inferences about the murderer’s inference. In the end, it is still up to us to get out of the police. “

Holmes hearing this indifferent expression and asked, “That boy named Paul is different from what I said?”

“There are some gaps,” Gregson said with a smile. “Acquaintances have no problem at all. There is no doubt that this is certain. We went to his residence and found more than those clothes under the bed. That little bastard had been thinking about it for a long time, but this is not unusual. Many of the cases I have dealt with are because the man ca n’t control the lower body, but it ’s a pity that the child named Molly is very young. Just … “

Sherlock Holmes interrupted the Sheriff’s emotions, “What about other aspects?”

“Height doesn’t match. The little bastard doesn’t have 6 feet, at most 5 feet 5. The person is quite wild. The two of us hold him. He is still struggling desperately and wants to bite the ear of one of our police officers. There is no way. I can only give him a hard time to let him down honestly, but the strength can only be said to be average, stronger than Molly is sure, but it is not as good as ordinary person, and his body is not bad Less injuries are left from the previous fight, but there is no scratch on the arm. “

“You caught the wrong person.” Holmes opened the mouth and said after listening.

Gregson Pu chi laughed out loud, “Look at what you said, I know that your previous inferences are a bit problematic, and may not be able to hang on the face, but whoever has done our business has not made mistakes, and even more powerful people will have When the horse loses its feet … so we often say that the most important thing in handling a case is to show evidence. “

“It’s true to tell the evidence, but you caught the wrong person.” Holmes shook his head. “The boy named Paul is not a murderer.”

“How is this possible? Are you thinking of me as a rookie just entering the police station,” Gregson disagreed, “I have been a policeman for so many years, and I have handled many cases. It is impossible to have any problems as conclusive as evidence. The little bastard couldn’t help but admit that he did have an idea for Molly early. “

“If you have an idea and don’t break the law,” Holmes said, “even more how they are all at this age, and it’s just when they are curious about the opposite-sex body that they cannot be regarded as the murderer.”

“The clothes, how to explain the clothes, but there is still blood on them.” The sheriff spread his hand.

This time Holmes did not answer in a hurry, but looked towards Zhang Heng on the side, “Are you free in the morning, in order not to let innocent souls struggle in prison, and let the real villains run free, it seems we have to run again A trip. “
