"So the murderer...?"

"It's obviously an acquaintance, and it must be a very familiar person. There is no trace of struggle to judge this. In such a situation, it is basically an acquaintance committing the crime, unless he is a fool."

"The door of the house is locked... I think that unlucky gentleman should have changed the lock before, but now he has no chance." Sherlock said at the usual speed of his reasoning, "It should be drugs that kill people. This is a very convenient, quick and commonly used method when committing a crime, after all, normal people would not suspect that someone they are familiar with or close relatives will drug them.”

"As for the question of the cause of death, oh, it's also possible that he was killed by other methods after drugging. Otherwise, the police in the autopsy report should have seen it. They couldn't see that there should be more than one fatal factor."

"With their low IQ, it's good to be able to judge that the cause of death is suspicious, and they are not confused by the appearance of the report."

"In short, let the police investigate who this person has quarreled with recently, or his wife or lover, close friends, they are the biggest suspects."

"You know all about it and still discuss it with me for a long time." Watson said depressedly, rubbing his forehead.Seeing Sherlock's excited look before, he thought that there would be some bizarre developments in this case.

"After all, apart from the case, I think we can't continue talking after a few words." Sherlock closed the computer, sat in his exclusive seat, and leaned on his head with his hands folded.

Watson was at a loss for words, for it was a fact that there was nothing but the case that allowed them to communicate for such a long time without quarreling.

It's not good to talk to people who are too smart. Knowing everything can't cover up some things you don't want to know or say.

"So what are you thinking, Sherlock?" Mary asked curiously. She was very curious about what could haunt Sherlock. He is a famous detective.

"A name, I remember seeing this name before." Sherlock replied, still resting his head on his hand, and when his eyes rolled, he suddenly caught a glimpse of the newspaper on the table.

newspaper……

newspaper!

He suddenly thought of something, hurriedly said "quiet, don't talk", and then entered his memory palace again, ran in the palace, and ran to the bookshelf where the newspaper was placed.

He quickly scanned up and down in chronological order, and finally saw the newspaper on the far side of the bookshelf.

Most of the newspaper was gray and white, and there were only a few places with faint traces, which proved that this memory was not stable in the palace and was at risk of disappearing at any time (also because he didn't take the newspaper seriously at the time, and didn't to memorize it).

On the corner of the newspaper, there are a few lines of very clear handwriting. The first thing that catches the eye is the name 'Mo Sheng', followed by a few unrelated words.

【Destruction, Judah, evaluation, universe, lamb, silk, future, glory. 】

And one last word.

【die. 】

Sherlock looked at these lines for a long time, and thought of countless ways to arrange and combine them in his mind, but he couldn't think of a smooth meaning.

There is definitely a reference here, but the key is what the reference is, what is the meaning of that little girl's name appearing in this newspaper, and why it appears here.

Thoughts loomed in him, and he seemed to catch a connection, only to be annoyed at how quickly it faded away.

Sherlock held the newspaper and looked at it for a long time, but he didn't see a clue. He hasn't encountered such a clueless thing for a long time. Some words have clear meanings, such as destruction and future, while some words don't, such as Lamb and silk.

He can also think of its extended meaning, but some extended meanings are completely opposite, depending on which word it is combined with, and this is the biggest difficulty.

Combine with what words?How many words are combined together?What is their order?What about their sentences?

Thinking this way, there are endless combinations, each corresponding to a different situation, and each different situation requires a different response from them.

And if it was some kind of secret correspondence, why was he allowed to read the paper?Thinking of this, Sherlock couldn't help gripping the newspaper tightly, it was absolutely impossible to see it by accident.

So, why did the people behind the scenes let him know about it?Do you want him to figure out a solution?

Absolutely not, the people behind the scenes definitely have a deeper meaning, and definitely want to make the result or impact worse.

But Sherlock never figured it out, and when things happened, he thought of these words again, only to find that all the answers were already on the surface, and he didn't even need to think about it, he just thought too much. Much too deep.

The permutations and combinations he thought about before are even more irrelevant. The extended meaning of words is clear even to ordinary people. Just expand each word, each word has a complete meaning, and this horrible conspiracy will be completely destroyed. exposed.

Sherlock regretted it very much when he thought about it at that time, because he was the only one who had the opportunity to press everything in the bud early. Even if he was not that familiar with the little girl, he knew enough for him to understand The little girl has a high affection.

An ordinary, kind-hearted little girl who wants to help people when she has strength, just like that...

And even after encountering those things, she still has the greatest kindness to the world and is willing to repay the world with love.

Seeing the little girl in pain in the cell, he felt for the first time that what he was proud of and what he despised was so ridiculous, and what he insisted on couldn't change anything at all.

Unfortunately, by the time he realized it, it was already too late.

"Sherlock? Sherlock?" Watson cried out worriedly seeing Sherlock's frown.

Shouted out of the Memory Palace by Watson's voice, Sherlock blinked to wake himself up.

"What's wrong?" he asked.

"That look of yours... Oh, my God, you should really see for yourself." Watson covered his face helplessly, expressing that he couldn't stand it anymore, "Are you sure you didn't eat anything? Are you sure? ?”

"I'm sure, I've answered you." Sherlock replied, and suddenly felt something strange in his hand. He looked down and found that it was a newspaper tightly clenched in his fist.

...Did I also take a newspaper in reality?

"You took the newspaper after you told us not to talk." Mary explained why the newspaper was in his hands, "and then you clutched the paper very hard, as if you were going to tear it up. It's like breaking into pieces, I feel like this newspaper has stepped on your thunder point all over."

Watson nodded, agreeing with what Mary said: "Okay, can you tell me what you thought of Sherlock? What you thought of before, when the little girl was talking to you, and now."

"Please, we're friends and we should share with each other."

The expression of his friend told him that this was not a good thing, otherwise Sherlock would not have behaved like this. He can guarantee that he can count the number of times he has seen Sherlock with such an expression over the years.

However, Sherlock was silent and did not answer for a long time.

He wanted to answer, but his intuition told him that he shouldn't tell others about it, although he was not a person who believed in intuition but... well, he really couldn't tell.

If the person behind the scenes has the ability to control everything like this, then he will know it soon after he tells others about it, and the loss outweighs the gain if the other party makes any other actions that will have a bad influence on him.

So Sherlock shook his head, indicating that he didn't want to talk.

"Okay." Watson let Sherlock do what he did. If you don't want to say something, don't say it, and you can't force it. "It doesn't matter if you don't want to say it, anyway, I also..."

After such a strange silence for a while, Watson said again: "Sherlock, if you have nothing else to do, Mary and I will leave first, and it is already evening."

Sherlock remained motionless, maintaining a posture of leaning on his hands and thinking, but only looked at Watson.

"Sherlock, you..." Just as Watson was about to ask again, Mary grabbed the corner of his clothes. Watson turned around and saw Mary winking at him, telling him to calm down first.

"What's the matter?" Seeing this, Watson asked Mary in a low voice.

"I don't think it's suitable for you to leave now." Mary also explained in a low voice, although they all knew that their quiet behavior was useless, "If you stay here for a while, he may tell you what he is thinking, I think his performance should be fast."

"But Sherlock won't do that, and he won't say yes to what he has refused," Watson said.

He is the most familiar with Sherlock, he still knows this, and Sherlock will always do what he says.

"Trust me." Mary looked at Sherlock, then turned to look at Watson again, and blinked, "He will probably tell you, you know, the detective has encountered a difficult puzzle .”

Mary, as an outsider, can easily see this.She knew she knew that her husband and her friend were going down a wrong path.But they need themselves to get out, and only they can find the right path.

"then you?"

"Rosa needs a good night's sleep. Being held in her arms is not so comfortable after all. She hasn't had a good rest in the past few nights."

Seeing that Watson was still in a daze, Mary smiled and patted him on the shoulder: "Don't worry, you don't have to worry about me, you should worry about your friend Sherlock."

"I know you're looking at Sherlock the way you want to figure out why, and I think you should look at him a little bit, after all we all know what happened last time, don't we?"

Watson actually wanted to stay for a while, but the situation was not good enough for him to speak, so he planned to go back.
