[Shenxia Tongren] My dear brothers and adults

The next person who came in was the chef on duty that day, Chen Jianguo, who was of Chinese descent just like the deceased, came in and sat down, smiled very honestly, and said, "Sir, if you have anything to do, please give me your orders."

"What were you doing on the night of April 4th?"

"It's nothing, I'm on duty in the kitchen, waiting for any customer to eat, prepare it and send it up."

"Anyone want it?"

"No."

"So you just stayed in the kitchen all night and didn't do anything to pass the time?"

"I watch TV."

"What did you see?"

"Uh, I forgot."

"A gentleman told me that you were very drunk that day. Is it true?"

"What? That guy Ruan Wu must have said it, I didn't!"

"Looks like he's really your drinker," Sherlock said.

"Well, I drank a little, but I didn't have a job, so I just drank a little. Did someone send me such a good drink?"

"Who gave you the wine?"

"In the afternoon, my colleague is the security guard Willie. He came to the kitchen to find something to eat, and then chatted with us. By the way, he made a bet. If I won, I won him a bottle of wine."

"Only you won?"

"Of course, he actually bet with me how many years the People's Republic of China has been established, can I not win?"

"Okay, I understand." Dr. Watson felt a little embarrassed when he heard this question, "You can go down now."

After he left, Sherlock asked, "John, when was the People's Republic of China founded?"

"Uh, after World War II, I'll go back and check." Dr. Watson thought for a while, but he really didn't know much about it.

"Forget it, it's not important." Sherlock said with a final word.

No, this is very important. I don't want my common sense to be gradually forgotten under your influence.Dr. Watson thought silently, and said, "Next."

The gray-haired hotel owner was dressed like an old-fashioned gentleman, with a dark flannel suit and a red bow tie. He was sitting in the interrogation room. When he came in and saw Sherlock and the others, he smiled kindly and stood at the table actively Stretched out his hand.

Seeing this, Sherlock reached out to shake his hand in a very gentlemanly manner, and said, "Hello, Mr. Wilson, please sit down."

"Hello, Mr. Holmes." Mr. Wilson nodded, and shook hands with Dr. Watson before sitting down.

"I think you know something about this case," said Dr. Watson.

"I am very saddened by the death of the girl, but unfortunately I don't know anything until the police arrive."

"Really? We have some very strange discoveries on the rooftop, I hope you can explain." Dr. Watson said

"Oh, what is it?" replied Mr. Wilson calmly.

"Dr. Watson produced an enlarged photograph of the tripod impression that Sherlock had taken.

Mr. Wilson leaned over it, looked and looked, and said, "What is this thing? I don't understand it at all."

"What a pity," Sherlock interjected, "what were you doing on April 4th?"

"I'm at home, with my wife."

"What about before?"

"What do you mean?"

"What about the 23th?"

"My wife and I went out to the movies."

"Do you still have the ticket stub?"

"It should be there. Let me see if there is anything in the wallet." Mr. Wilson began to flip through the wallet, and Sherlock also stood up at the same time, circling around the room as if he wanted to move his sedentary body.

Soon, Mr. Wilson took out two ticket stubs and handed them to Dr. Watson.Dr. Watson looked at it and wanted to give it to Sherlock, but Sherlock took it and returned it after looking at it.

"Is there anything else I can do for you, gentlemen?"

"No, you can leave now."

"Okay." He stood up, walked to the door, and said, "Good afternoon, gentlemen."

"Good afternoon, Mr. Wilson," Sherlock replied.

After he left, Dr. Watson said with some frustration: "We got nothing from him, he is too cautious."

"Yes, too cautious, this is also a flaw."

"flaw?"

"When he just took out his wallet, I took a look behind him. He seemed to be full of actions in order to clear his suspicion."

"Slowed down? Why can't I see it?"

"Oh, random, in my eyes, he just slowed down. His wallet is very tidy, small change, large notes and documents are placed in different places, and of course there is one place for those two. That lonely ticket stub. You know it's the 23rd, and it's the 29th today."

"Ah, so he carefully kept those two ticket stubs?"

"He's really cautious, isn't he? Everything is ready. People are used to putting ticket stubs in their wallets, and he does a great job, but he forgets that he can't organize his wallet these days," Sherlock said.

"It's amazing, you can notice such details."

"Whether I have the ability to observe is a major factor that distinguishes me from Lestrade and his ilk. They are watching, but I am observing. They can only act recklessly, but I can think."

Dr. Watson is very used to Sherlock praising himself while belittling other people's performance, so he continued: "Sometimes you also need their help to catch people, don't you? Also, what should we do now?"

Sherlock looked at the time and said, "John, would you mind having dinner later?"

"do not mind."

"That's good, let's go to that cinema first, Casino Cinema, I remember the name."

When we went to the cinema, the manager of the cinema had a very bad attitude towards these two private detectives who had no official authorization, but Sherlock just glanced at him and told the fact that he had an affair.He looked around and whispered, "Well, for that girl, what do you want?"

"Do you have a back door here?"

"Yes, there is a fire exit."

"Then are there surveillance cameras installed in these two places?"

"Have."

"Okay then, give me these two surveillance videos from 4:23 p.m. to 9:11 p.m. on April [-]."

"Well, don't tell anyone."

"Do not worry."

This time, they got a lot of results. In the video, it can be clearly seen that Mr. Wilson left the front door at 9:15, which means that Wilson's seemingly impeccable alibi was abolished.

Seeing this, Sherlock took a picture of it with his mobile phone, got up and said happily: "Let's go, Watson, it's almost 7 o'clock, finish your dinner, and then we can go to shop. But before that, We need to go shopping first."

"It's your dinner too, Sherlock." Dr. Watson said after putting on his coat, and looked around again. Fortunately, no one was there. Good citizens who don't know should call the police.

"whatever."

After going out to the cinema, Sherlock pulled out his phone and said, "Come on, i'monfire"

"Ahem." Dr. Watson said, "Next time, go farther and talk about slang words like 'stepping on the spot'. I was really worried that someone would take us as thieves."

They went to the hardware store first, and Sherlock bought a chisel, two flashlights and a piece of wire.In order to avoid a bulge in Sherlock's slim long coat and attract the attention of the police, Dr. Watson carefully carried the chisel in his arms, and as a law-abiding citizen, he carried such a thing through the dim night and fog. The feeling of the street is really wonderful.

Taking a taxi to a remote street in the West End, Sherlock took out a pistol to check before entering the street, and then handed it to Watson and said, "If you find any possible threats, don't ask, just shoot."

"how about you?"

"You're better at marksmanship than I am."

"Ok."

"Take my hand."

Their luck was pretty good. They were operating in a place that was as chaotic as the Middle East, where street girls and drug addicts could be seen everywhere. Except for a few gunshots, they didn't encounter anyone blocking their way.

Going to the destination, Sherlock, who was ambushing outside, received a text message and said: "John, today Henry Wilder and Willie Smith are going to deal with the personnel of the Department of Homeland Security, may God bless them really not illegal Immigration! We can go right in"

Dr. Watson suppressed a laugh, and said: "Don't say that, if God really hears, the old man will burst into tears." He is not the patron saint of thieves and murderers.

"It's okay, God loves the world."

"Ahem." Dr. Watson hurried to the building, this blasphemous guy, is this how God loves the world? !He said, "Then let's go in."

The house in front of me was crooked like an illegal building with stains on the walls.Dr. Watson said: "I said, how could that girl fall in love with such a man?"

"Aesthetics are hard to say."

Forget it, Dr. Watson thought, are you insulting other people's aesthetics? !A little sympathy, okay?Even if it's true, you don't have to be so direct. Fortunately, it was in front of me, otherwise it would be another act of seeking out.

Sherlock stepped forward and asked Watson to turn on the flashlight, while he observed the keyhole himself, skillfully put the wire into the shape of a key, inserted it into the keyhole, and with a slight flick, the door opened.

Sherlock gently pushed the door open, stepped in, and tugged on La Watson's sleeve.Dr. Watson looked outside and stepped in.

After entering, Sherlock turned on the light, and Dr. Watson looked at him in surprise.Sherlock said: "Now there is no one else in this room except you and me, and the light of the flashlight is too dazzling. People outside will know that it is a thief when they see it. So now we can be generous and pretend to be the owner."

"Understood." Dr. Watson replied.

"We have a whole night, take your time." Sherlock said, took out two pairs of medical gloves from his pocket, threw a pair to Watson, took a pair with him, and began to search.

About an hour later, Sherlock called from the bedroom, "John, come here."

When Watson came in, he saw that Sherlock had thrown all the quilts on the ground, and a pink and purple skirt was spread on the bed. It was the skirt worn by the deceased in the video.
