My Detective Roommate [Sherlock Holmes]

As Adelia expected, it was Inspector Brad who was at the scene.

Detective Brad was a well-known figure in the London police circle. He participated in several important investigations at a young age and became the youngest detective—his beard made him look a bit vicissitudes, but it is also For his purposes, the too-young Inspector looked less convincing enough.

The young inspector was obviously taken aback when he saw Adelia, and it took a few seconds for him to react.

"Long time no see, Mr. Hudson." He took off his hat and did not extend his hand.

When a man shakes hands with a woman, the woman should usually offer her hand, otherwise it will be a bit abrupt.Although Brad didn't reveal Adélia's identity, he still abides by etiquette in some details.

Adelia also took off her hat in greeting, with one hand behind her back, without shaking hands.

After a short greeting, Inspector Brad looked at Sherlock: "Meet you again, Mr. Holmes."

"It's a great honor to have the opportunity to work with you again." Sherlock offered to extend his hand.

There may be some dissatisfaction in Inspector Brad's eyes. He doesn't like outsiders stepping on his scene. He took a deep breath, as if to make himself more imposing: "The last time you were here Branston Manor’s reasoning has won my respect, but—I hope that you should be cautious when expressing remarks without definite evidence.”

He proudly stretched out his hand and shook hands with Sherlock.

Unsurprisingly, this is what consent means.

Sherlock gave Adelia a smug look that was close to success, and Adelia only glanced sideways after receiving the other party's signal.

"The corpse has been put down, but it hasn't been sent away yet. The forensic doctor's preliminary judgment is that the time of death is between [-]:[-] and [-]:[-] in the morning. You can go and have a look—" His tone was a little stiff, and he looked at Adlia's At the end of the day, he sighed and made a concession, "Forget it, I'll lead you there."

This surprised even Sherlock, but at this moment, the roommate's puzzle seemed less important. He was more concerned about the murder here, not to mention that the roommate's puzzle might also be hidden in this murder.

The clinic is a two-storey small house facing north and south. The floor plan drawn by Adlia allows Sherlock to quickly match the functions of each room. The special consultation room just entered the door, the pharmacy...Professor Parker's consultation room is in To the east, next door is Wycombe's consulting room, and opposite is the classroom.The walls are the simplest white, and wooden signs are hung on each door.

"At the time of the incident, the door was locked and the latch inside was also fastened. Our inspector Feynman found out that there was a change in the clinic in the morning, so he came to investigate, and then broke open the door with them. The doors and windows inside the house were closed, and no outsiders broke into There are no traces of entry," Brad led them to Professor Parker's consulting room. Along the way, he could see an agent guarding the door of each consulting room. "We have put Professor Parker's body down from the beam, but Not yet, but in an hour the carriage will take him away, though—”

He hesitated to glance at the two of them.

"I can't give you too much time, is half an hour enough?"

Sherlock turned his head sharply: "Of course, I am very grateful."

"And I need to watch you here, so that you don't spoil the scene." Brad made the condition.

But no one is listening to this sentence anymore, and Sherlock is obviously fully attracted by the scene.

He began to slowly develop the habit of solving crimes by himself. He was not in a hurry to explore the remains of the victims, but first had a general memory and understanding of the whole room.

There are two windows in the house, facing the east and south respectively, so that the house has good lighting, but frosted glass is installed on both sides, so it is impossible to peek into the inside from the outside. There is a beam on the roof, and the white sheet is tied into a rope, which is still hanging as it is. On the crossbeam, his office chair was placed underneath. It was a solid wooden chair with a soft cushion and fell to the ground.Professor Parker's body was placed in a hospital bed - where there used to be a hospital bed, and now the doctor's body is lying there.

Adelia's emotions were a little uncontrollable at this moment, and the muscles of her eyelids even trembled a little.

It's like a nightmare.

On a rare occasion, she went straight to the bed without observing her roommate's investigation behavior.

Scenes from her previous life flashed back before her eyes.

With her back to Sherlock and Brad, no one could see her reddened eyes and trembling fingers.She lifted the white cloth that Scotland Yard had put on the Professor.

It is a teacher she is familiar with.

Nobody ever forgot what he used to be—Professor Parker was a kind, thin old man, always smiling.But at this moment, his eyes were wide open, his face was blue and ferocious, a look that Adelia had never seen before.

No... She had seen the same struggle, panic, and despair on the face of her other teacher.

For a moment, she even suspected that she had hallucinations, shifting the past to the present moment.So many differences, yet so similar.

She tried so hard to let her reason over her emotions that she didn't notice that her roommate was already standing behind her.

"If you don't want to watch it, you can avoid it."

His voice is calm and seems to bring some reassuring power.Afterwards, his big palm almost completely wrapped her hand, leading her to put down the list.

Through two layers of gloves, his temperature was barely there.

Her eyes were still fixed on Professor Parker's face, and her hands followed his movements almost numbly, but she suddenly refused at the moment when the white sheet was about to completely cover the professor.Her tone was so calm that it was almost cold-blooded: "I don't think there is anything I can't bear."

Sherlock stared fixedly at Adrea's green eyes, he thought that the other party would avoid them as usual, but no, her eyes were tough and dazzling like turquoise jade.

"Then let's get started." He let go.

Adlia removed the white list completely, and examined her teacher's body like a well-trained forensic doctor.Adelia has never studied forensic medicine, she just does a physical examination like a patient, from the head and facial features to the limbs and even the back of the foot.She took off the black leather gloves and handed them to Sherlock for safekeeping, so as to ensure the most realistic touch for her fingers.

Sherlock turned to the room. He carefully checked every corner, helped up the fallen chair, compared the height and distance, and then carefully groped for any traces of bumps on the back of the chair.His sword-like eyebrows are tightly wrinkled, his eyes are piercing, and his movements, which are short and easy to observe, are full of artistic sense like a drama actor.

The two were busy with each other, Brad felt that he seemed a little redundant, cleared his throat: "Do you need me to call witnesses in?"

Sherlock didn't turn his head back: "That would be great - I need the first inspector to find the scene, the maid, and Mr. Wycombe."

Brad looked at the two of them, heaved a sigh of relief, turned and left the room.

Sherlock didn't care about this, and quickly walked to the desk. The desk was very tidy, with pens, pen holders, pads, stethoscopes, and a small vase with a few dried flowers in it.Sherlock opened the drawer one by one to look in, and then picked up the prescription pad to read it carefully, but Professor Parker's handwriting was almost as illegible as his roommate's handwriting.The pen had been filled with ink, and he thoughtfully put the pen back in its place.

At this moment, his eyes were suddenly attracted by the table legs.

There's a police badge in there—

He picked it up and put it in his pocket.

The door was knocked open, and the latch was so damaged that there were no clues left.Sherlock is concerned about whether this room is really a secret room.He inspected the two windows in the house, and found no signs of violence.

"I hate snow, it can cover up all the evidence," he muttered.

"Are there footprints outside the window?"

"What you said couldn't be more meaningful. The footprints all over the ground, I can see the traces of the boots that Scotland Yard agents love to wear. It's like a mammoth rushing into a museum to tap dance." He squeezed through his nasal cavity With a snort of disdain, he closed the window.

Adlia had roughly completed the inspection, and her gaze stayed on the professor's neck for a long time.

She could share her discovery with Sherlock, but her mind was not yet overwhelmed by grief—if the murderer were to create a secret chamber, it must be to point the case to suicide, so there was no need for them to expose this prematurely. It is better to take advantage of the trend to affirm the secret room and suicide, and see if the murderer has other reactions.

She heard a knock on the door, covered the white sheet, and said, "Except for the constriction on the neck, there is nothing."

The author says:

Husbands and wives are of one mind, and their profits break gold!

Let's solve the case together!

Then ask a question, the next case may be the case of the original book, do you mind?

At present, there are 3 original cases. If you use the original case, it should be 1-2. Although the ending case (the earliest conception) is original, it also has some elements of the original work.
