“Have you checked the maid who cleaned the room?” Sherlock Holmes took out his pipe and installed the shredded tobacco.

“Check, although the maid has been working in the house for 2 years, but old steward detained her immediately, searched her body, and found no oil painting, and from her entering the room, to find the right door The old steward has not been to other places in the middle, so her suspicion in this case can be ruled out. “Vial said.

paused He went on to say, “Through the relationship of the Viscount I also found 2 other victims who were patronized by Mr. M. Listening to their description is similar to the situation this time. Letters from Mr. M, one of them was stolen while on vacation, and one was more prominent than Mr. Viscount ’s identity, and his stuff was also better hidden, but he still lost it. The guy was like a guy. Like a magician, no matter what the secret room can be drilled in, everyone is playing between the palms. “

Holmes hearing this indifferent expression, lit the tobacco and took a sip, “One of the most powerful thieves I’ve ever encountered is a dwarf performing in a circus. His body is only half the height of a child, and he is very thin and can slip into the chimney Your home can also squeeze through very narrow gaps by shrinking bones, but even he ca n’t make any traces at all. ”

“So I can’t figure out how that guy did it, so I can only ask you.” Vial said respectfully.

“Okay,” Holmes laughed. “Since I have promised to help you, and I am very interested in this case, I certainly will not let it go, but for now we will first find you a place to live in London.”

The three arrived in a carriage in front of a hotel. While Vial was checking in on the side, Holmes stood in the lobby and looked at the to-and-fro passengers with a pipe in his mouth.

“Do you think Mr. M will be among them?” Zhang Heng asked.

“Who knows,” Sherlock Holmes spewed out a smoke ring, and he could see that he was in a very good mood now, “We are so lucky today, Zhang, I came across such an interesting case. I thought early in the morning Vial will surprise us, hey, this kid did not disappoint me. “

“………” Zhang Heng was kind of didn’t know whether to cry or laugh. The more tricky the case with Vial was, the happier Holmes was, the happier the detective’s thinking was indeed not the same as the ordinary person.

“Do you have a clue about the whereabouts of the oil painting?” Zhang Heng then asked.

Sherlock Holmes did not answer, but instead asked, “You, do you have any ideas.”

Along the way, Zhang Heng was also thinking about this case, trying to integrate all the clues together, dragging Vial ’s blessing, the red-haired detective did a detailed investigation of the scene, it was simply turning the Viscount ’s mansion After reading the sky, it reads as if you were there.

Zhang Heng thought about it for a while, “You said before that all odd and unscientific options were excluded, the rest is the truth, no thief ’s skill can be as good as this, no step left on the dirt, no trace, bypass The hound did not cause any movement, and I looked at the layout of the house. In addition to the old steward to the door, the cook did not sleep that night. He was busy in the kitchen. He was not far away, and the door of the house It ’s usually locked, so I think the problem is with the maid who cleans. ”

Sherlock Holmes looked at Zhang Heng with the same eyes as a rare animal in the zoo, and then he exclaimed, “My mysterious oriental traveler friend, no matter how long I know you, you can always surprise people. It ’s very good to know you. Although you are still studying with me, you can actually stand up to your own portal with your ability. You are much stronger than those of my mediocre counterparts outside, Vial This kind of potential newcomer is not as good as you. Maybe not long before you can become my strong competitor, so this World may not be so boring to me. “

This evaluation is already very high for Sherlock Holmes. Although in the end there is still the suspicion of bragging, but it can make the always proud big detective say such words, proving that Zhang Heng really made him look at him.

Sherlock Holmes continued, “haha, when I saw the note just now, I immediately thought of the homicide case in Fort Qum. There were rumors that the victim was killed by the ghost, because all the doors and windows were Closed, it cannot be opened from the outside, and the murder scene inside is very bloody, with a strong sense of revenge, so the locals think that only ghosts can do it, and even many of the police believe that ghosts revenge View.

“But as I said, excluding those impossible interference items, the rest will be the correct answer even if it seems inconceivable on the surface, it turns out that the victim is the murderer himself, and he killed himself by extreme means. , That ’s an interesting case, because a secret has been buried in the victim ’s heart, and that secret has haunted him for a long time, he feels guilty for a wrong thing he did in his youth, this sense of guilt accompanies his life In addition, at that time, he was in a very poor physical condition and was already terminally ill, and worried that the offspring of the other party would seek revenge on his wife and daughter, so he used this method to repay his indebted debts that year.

“The situation this time is also very close. I took a closer look at Vial’s notes and ruled out the possibility of outsiders entering, so that there is only one possibility of house thieves. After all, buying a woman with a weekly salary of less than one pound Maid, it is much easier to sneak into a guarded mansion. If I were Mr. M, I would also choose the way. “

Zhang Heng frowns saying, “The letter on the ground is very easy to explain. It was taken by the maid long ago. It was put there when cleaning, and the painting was also stolen by her, but the only problem I have n’t figured out yet is that she is How did you check after escaping, is that steward also her accomplice? “

“You are almost close to the final answer, my Oriental friend.” Holmes blinked, excited. “I believe that you can think of it as long as you give you a little more time, and find the oil painting in this matter. The link is not difficult. The hard part is how to catch Mr. M. I have to admit that his imagination and talents are very good as a thief. I must be a cautious and patient person when I look at his behavior. It’s not easy for a guy, but London is our home stadium, and it would be unreasonable to let him run away. “
