When Nott walked downstairs, Sherlock and Stoke each occupied a sofa and sat facing each other.The atmosphere was stagnant, as if a spark could go in and explode.

She walked down step by step, and the eyes of both of them stopped on her.

Note paused, where to sit was a matter of choosing a position.Nott didn't play ambiguously, without any hesitation, she sat directly next to Sherlock and told him the matter.

The butler Hudson stood behind Notte at some point, as if obeying orders.

Nuote was still a little anxious, "I'll take you to the guest room."

Sherlock asked unhurriedly, "Do you know which guest room the deceased is in?"

Nott choked, "I don't know, but Hudson does."

"You haven't had your lunch yet, go eat something first. I'll accompany you." Sherlock comforted Notte, showing no urgency at all.

"Oh..." Nott was bewitched by his calm appearance, and obediently agreed.

Second time, Sherlock will also have this kind of calm when facing the case? !This unscientific!

Under the pressure of many parties (she couldn't bear to wolf down in front of a bunch of servants, especially when the housekeeper and Stoke were watching), it took half an hour to finish her lunch.

"Let's go." Notte wiped her mouth and urged.

"Okay." Sherlock agreed.

Stoke stood up, although no one asked his opinion, but he must follow Nott.

----------

The Merovingian castle is very large, and its management system is also very large.Harrison was the head butler, and there was another butler for the guest rooms—Karl Markus.

Nott looked at Karl, a man in his 30s, but with a delicate baby face, he looked much younger than his actual age.Standing there humbly, the demeanor is really a bit like Stoke.

All in all, a handsome little boy.

Note tilted his head and asked Harrison, "I remember that there are more female guests in the guest room?"

In this family, Mrs. Meroving doesn't know how to take care of things, and Knott is not willing to take care of things. Harrison has full authority over all matters.Harrison is directly under Xia Zuo's orders, and Notte's question is questioning his judgment.

Harrison's face remained unchanged, and he replied respectfully, "Carl has performed very well these years, and my husband is also very optimistic about him taking over after I retire. The guest room is a very good place to practice."

"I see, you go do your thing." Notte waved his hand.She just asked casually, and didn't want to get entangled in this issue.

"Good afternoon, miss." Carl bowed slightly, and the etiquette was very well done.

"Stop talking nonsense, let's go in." Nuote waved his hand, reaching out to open the door.

"Miss." Carl slightly raised his voice, "It's a murder scene inside, and the scene is a bit scary, so you'd better not watch it." There was a worried look on his face just right, and he was considerate and not overstepping the rules.

Nuo Te ignored him and opened the door directly.

Then she saw a female corpse with a pure white lily in it.

The lily has always been a symbol of purity.So is the killer hinting at something?Nuo Te came a little closer to look at it, and his face changed drastically in an instant.

In the American drama "Hannibal", there is a terrible story.Physicians use human bodies to grow mushrooms. The hyphae absorb nutrients from the blood, grow in the muscles, drill out from the epidermis, and cover the entire human body.

Because of fear, Nuo Te remembered this episode very clearly.

The corpse was sitting on the bed, naked, with the legs tied by the side, exposing the cock to the greatest extent, and a delicate lily flower grew from the private part and was in full bloom.

Nuote's complexion changed and changed, and he couldn't help turning around and retching.

Stoke helped her up and asked with concern, "Are you okay? Should I take you away first?"

Nott shook his head in refusal.

Sherlock stared at the female corpse for a while, then turned to Notte, "How long is the growth cycle of a lily?"

Notte waved her hand weakly, "I don't know, maybe I can find you a gardener." After she finished speaking, she came to her senses.The growth cycle, how can it not be less than two months?If the transplant is delayed, the time can be shortened, but it will not be less than a week...

How long had she held that position, living or dead?

Nott a thrill.

"How long has it been since Catherine went out of the room?" Nott asked Carl.

Carl thought for a while, and reacted quickly, "It's like this. Mr. Golov came here last week and had a big fight with Miss Catherine. Mr. Golov locked Miss Catherine in confinement, and it's exactly ten days today."

He added, "The meals delivered by the maid every day are all untouched.

Nuo Te's eyebrows twitched, what kind of thing is this, he refuses to raise it, but also wants to take care of it, it's a good idea.

"Go find a gardener..." Notte thought for a while, and added, "Be bold and careful. "

"No need." Stoke interjected, "I'll do it. After all, I know anatomy, and I'm more suitable than a gardener."

"I'm sorry to trouble you." Notte smiled gratefully.

"I think you'd better not be in a hurry to check." Sherlock leaned over to look at the corpse, "She has acquired immunodeficiency syndrome, or aids for short."

Notte's face changed, AIDS.

That really can't be checked.AIDS can be transmitted through blood. As long as there is a small wound on the body, there is a high possibility of being infected if it comes into contact with the patient's vagina.

And this... Maybe it's a family scandal.

She started to have a headache.

"Delllin, please go and control this building, and no one is allowed to enter or leave." Notte glanced at Carl, "Including this housekeeper."

Carl gave her a shocked look, and quickly regained his composure.

"it is good."

As soon as Stock left the room, the police arrived in a hurry.

"Miss Meroving, good afternoon. I'm François Madin." The tall and arrogant leader held out his hand to Notte, with a distant smile on his face.

"Hello, Mr. Madan." Notte shook his hand lightly, and immediately withdrew his hand.She didn't like this man instinctively, and how did he know his identity?

"Miss Meroving, I don't think this kind of place is suitable for you to stay in, you see?" Francois said politely, but he was trying to drive someone away.

Nott gritted his teeth, his father called the police to cause trouble for Sherlock on purpose.

"Oh, yes. And this gentleman..." Francois turned his gaze to Sherlock.Sherlock was studying something against the wall.

Nott thought that Sherlock was going to get into a fight with the Madan police officer, and was thinking about how to solve it, but Sherlock replied very cooperatively, "Oh, are you talking about me? Me and Nott will leave immediately."

"Jacqueline, take them to the next room." Francois ordered to a policewoman.After speaking, he turned his head and asked, as if asking for Note's opinion, "Would you mind cooperating with me in the investigation?"

Hehehe, you got her up at the slightest disagreement?It was the first time she had seen a policeman talking like this in someone else's territory, so drunk.

Did you say that capitalist power is a rich man's game?Police officer, do you know that the Prime Minister is so impartial?

Nuo Te was in his own territory, and his temper hardened as he gained confidence.But Sherlock came over and squeezed her palm, signaling her not to act rashly.

"Of course." Notte showed an impeccable smile, "It's my honor."

So Noot and Sherlock were invited to the next door.

Next door is a reception room.There were already eight women staying inside, but fortunately, it was spacious and didn't feel crowded.

At first glance, all of them looked bad, or panicked or anxious or afraid.Nott can only tell from the clothes that two of them are maids, and the rest don't know each other.

Seeing the female police officer, the eyes of several people lit up, and they rushed forward to ask questions.

"When will you let me out?"

"What happened?"

………………

The policewoman interrupted them impatiently, "Our police are investigating this matter, I hope you will cooperate well. The police will come to take notes for you later."

"Then when can we leave here?" A sharp female voice asked in a bad tone.

"Wait another quarter of an hour." The female police officer hurriedly gave time and closed the door.

The women looked at me and I looked at you, each of them found a place to sit down, and still maintained their ladies' posture, trying to calm down.

Nott and Sherlock sat in the corner, quietly biting their ears.

"Who do you know?"

Notte was embarrassed, "I don't know any of them. To be honest, I have been banned from playing in this area of ​​the guest room since I was a child."

"why?"

"This area is not so much a part of the guest room as it is a monastery. The people who live here are all from the Merovingian family and those who are related to the Merovingian family. Those divorced or unmarried old girls who have no financial means are still here. There are maidens like Catherine."

"Their status is very embarrassing, and they are not valued, and they are not of high value to the family."

Sherlock looked at her, "But you are very valuable."

"But I'm depraved now, especially after I found a boyfriend who doesn't have enough power and money." Notte shrugged.

"So they don't know you anymore?"

"That's right."

Sherlock smiled slyly, "Then this is a good opportunity to collect materials."

Note: "..."

Thanks to Mr. Madan for successfully sending the Sherlock wolf into the flock.
