[Comprehensive] Sherlock's Secret

"Miss Oates must not have read the death scene records of the deceased Carla Iris, otherwise she would not have returned the coat that still smelled of fragrance after washing to Mr. Vicente—"

Fernanda's expression froze, and Sherlock continued: "A button was left at the scene of Iris' death. The button came from Jerry Vicente's coat. Mr. Vicente lent the coat to him on the night of the party. you--

Iris returns to your house to pick up things within half an hour after the party. You should go out and buy hangover medicine for your sister during this time, so you don’t know whether it’s a mobile phone or lipstick she left at your house, unless You were at home.

Why do you insist that you go to the Central Hospital instead of Carlson Hospital to buy medicine?Obviously Carson Hospital is closer to your home - because the scene of Iris's murder is near Carson Hospital, you have to avoid it.

When Iris died, she was killed by a knife. The dagger pierced into her lung cavity and even caused her ribs to be shattered. However, judging from the strength with which you couldn't even lift a fallen chair just now, you must have killed the person. Yes, of course it is even less likely to be Adele - you are just an accomplice, who is the other person?Charles Cliff, of course—”

Sherlock turned to Detective Jackson as he spoke, showing his usual ironic and perfunctory smirk: "You just need to tell Miss Costner that Jerry Vicente is not the murderer, and I believe she will tell you all the facts to prove that she is not the murderer." .”

"Now, is there any sophistry?"

Fernanda Oates clutched her fingers, her face was pale, her lips moved for a while, and she finally bowed her head in silence.

That evening, Louis brought back news that Adele had been proven innocent and would be released tomorrow after completing the procedures. Fernanda Oates had also confessed that she was an accomplice, and that the murderer was none other than Charles Kerry. husband.

It’s just that when Detective Jackson took people to arrest Cliff, he found that his house had been deserted for a long time. This guy was a gangster with no relatives and a lot of cronies, but no one knew what he had gone to. place.

Even Fernanda was puzzled, saying that she didn't know why Clive killed Carla Iris, she thought she had provoked him, but after the incident Clive just lent her five hundred pounds, and then Just left Bicester.

The police station immediately included Charles Cliff in the wanted range, and notified the surrounding towns and cities to arrest Cliff as soon as possible.

But what the result will be remains to be seen.

Early the next morning, Louis went to the police station to pick up Adele. After staying in the police station for a few days, she looked thinner and thinner. When she entered the door, she saw Sherlock and Su Fu smiled shyly, and then hurriedly went upstairs.

"I think I need to talk to Adele." Louis lowered his voice and frowned, but his eyes were still cheerful, and he could see that he was very happy that Adele was acquitted.

"Because of her boyfriend?" Su Fu asked.

"Yes," Louise nodded, with a fierce tone, "She is too ignorant, how could she take the blame for that bastard! If it wasn't for you and Sherlock this time, she would have stayed in prison for the rest of her life!"

Louis' father, Robert Costner Sr., let out a long sigh, but ended up just staring upstairs and muttering, "The poor girl..."

Because Su Fu used to live in Adele's house, but now that Adele came back, she thought she should move out, so she went upstairs to pick up the suitcase, but she didn't open for a long time after knocking on the door, she thought Adele was sleeping , just turned around to go downstairs, but the door opened a thin crack.

Adele poked her head out and whispered, "Come in."

"No—please just lift out my box."

"Hey, are you leaving?"

"You can just call me Frank. Originally, because Mr. Costner only prepared one guest room, I temporarily lived in your house. Now that you are back, of course I will move out."

Adele quietly glanced into the corridor of the stairs, and seeing no one around, she opened the door wide, but her voice became softer: "It's okay, the other houses haven't been lived in for a long time, so you can live with me... ...I also have a Simmons folding bed, which is enough to sleep when I unfold it.”

"……Thank you."

Adele looked around again, and waved to Su Fu again: "Come in..."

Su Fu swiftly dodged from her side and entered the bedroom only to find that Adele seemed to be arranging things.

Papers, some clothes, and other bits and pieces were piled up in a mess on the ground, and the desk drawers were wide open, as if the mess in Sherlock's living room hadn't been tidied up by Su Fu.

Adele smiled shyly at her, kicked a snowball aside, pushed a small swivel chair over, and said, "Please sit down."

Su Fu picked up a book that had fallen on the ground, and said with a smile, "I'm Sue Frank, and I came with Sherlock Holmes. If you don't mind, you can call me by my Christian name."

Adele brushed her hair and said, "I know, Louis told me that you are Mr. Holmes' partner, thank you and him for getting me out of the police station."

As she spoke, she took a beautifully bound diary, flipped it over, and tore it into pieces with a blank expression.

Su Fu: "..."

At this moment, Adele's cell phone rang suddenly. She picked it up to take a look and hung up immediately. Two seconds later, the ringtone rang again persistently. Adele picked it up and said word by word: " - Jerry Vicente, stop calling me, we're done!"

After finishing speaking, she hung up the phone neatly, turned off the phone, and threw it on the small sofa.

Su Fu: "..."

Adele stared at her for two seconds, and said with an ugly smile: "You already know what's going on, it's just a joke, I'm so stupid that I deserve it..."

As she spoke, she blinked vigorously, and a few wisps of warm water vapor fell off her sparse light-colored eyelashes.

Su Fu raised his eyebrows, shook his head for a while, and said, "Actually, I just want to say—"

She pursed her lips and said dryly to Adele: "You did it beautifully!"

Adele was stunned for a moment, and then laughed loudly. Tears trickled down her cheeks as she laughed. She reached out to wipe away the tears and continued to laugh. Her light brown eyeballs were filled with tears, but she insisted on smiling .

She covered her cheeks, but the tears were still seeping through her fingers, her forced and helpless smile turned into hysterical sobs, and her whole body curled up convulsively, like a tormented and pitiful woman rolled into a boiling water pot. shrimp.

"Adele invited me to her celebration party, are you going?"

Sherlock raised his eyes and glanced at Su Fu, and said, "Has Adele already regarded you as her life mentor?"

Su Fu laughed and said, "What the hell, don't you know that two women who live together get to know each other very quickly?"

"Of course I don't know," Sherlock waved his hand. "How could I know these useless things."

"So are you going or not? It's in that bar on the east side of town—"

Sherlock stared at his phone and said absently, "Go..."

Su Fu was surprised: "Really?"

"What's the point of lying to you?"

……

It was Adele's fifth day back from the police station.

After she cried a lot that day, her mood became more normal and optimistic, and it was only that night that Su Fu knew the truth of the whole matter.

After Fernanda Oates' party, Vicente was going to send Adele and Carla home, but because Fernanda's sister was drunk and Cliff was also drunk, So Vicente stayed to help Fernanda, and Adele and Carla left first.

On the way, Kara returned to get her mobile phone, and Adele returned home alone.

This time is 09:30.

Adele called Vicente as soon as she got home. When she called for the first time, Vicente was going out with Fernanda to see Cliff off.

During this period Adele has been on the phone with Vicente.

On the way, Cliff regained consciousness a little and insisted on going back by himself. They seemed to have a dispute because Adele said that her phone was full of noise and she couldn't hear anything clearly.

Later Vicente talked to her a few more words, she was worried about him, so she secretly went out the window and went out to wait for him at the intersection of Vicente's house. This process took about half an hour, and it happened to be ten one o'clock.

In other words, in this gap, Fernanda and Cliff killed Carla, and Adele was on the way from her home to Vicente's.

At [-]:[-], Adele waited until Jerry Vicente, and he had a few words with her at the intersection, Vicente sent her off for a while, and then went back by himself.

It took at least an hour to get from the scene of Cara Iris' death to Vicente's home, and just 45 minutes ago, Vicente was on the phone with Adele - he knew full well that Adele could not be Kara killed the murderer.

The incident happened the next day.

Adele rushed to the scene at the first time, and found that her good friend had died, and there was the button on her boyfriend's clothes that no one noticed, but she knew very well.

And she was the first to be suspected—Adele, who walked home with the victim Carla Iris at night. She knew that Vicente stayed at Fernanda's house to help after the party—in fact, he Send Cliff to the intersection and say goodbye to him and Fernanda.Adele also knew that Carla returned to Fernanda's house halfway, and the second time she saw Vicente was shortly after Carla was killed.

She thought Jerry Vicente was the murderer.

So she remained silent when she was detained in the police station, and finally admitted that she was the perpetrator.

This period took about four days.

And Vicente, who knew she was not the murderer, never said a word from the beginning to the end.

When Su Fu told Sherlock the whole story, he pulled the corners of his lips and smiled more mockingly than usual, and his evaluation of Adele was - "It's pitifully stupid".

Su Fu was silent for a while, and finally answered him: "You are right."

Sherlock said slowly: "Su, you are more rational and indifferent than I imagined."

Su Fu has been thinking about the evaluation he gave himself—reasonable, but indifferent...maybe.

The author has something to say: When it comes to red envelopes, all the diving parties are bubbling... If only you would leave messages like yesterday when red envelopes were not given out, it would be great, melancholy.
