"I sneaked into the bedroom later and spent some time finding relevant evidence, and I've heard rumors before that the gentleman is all right, but he is very afraid, which is probably why he only dares to be private. The reason why the girls secretly met. "

As Holmes said, he cut a potato with a knife and fork, stuffed it with bacon, and stuffed it into his mouth.

I can see that he was really hungry. He didn't have breakfast in the morning, and probably his medicine hadn't passed yet at noon. Mrs. Hudson took only a few mouthfuls for lunch, and then went on again. He was devoted to work, and it was really hard for him to endure it till now.

If it was n’t for the previous one, Zhang Heng would have almost forgotten. In addition to the extraordinary observation and reasoning abilities of this master, the makeup technique is also very good. It is difficult for ordinary people to see through, especially in the original Chinese student who wrote his story as After the article was published, he became more and more famous. In many cases, he would choose to act after makeup so as not to be recognized.

He can be dressed as a coachman, as an old man, a beggar, an officer, and even a woman can occasionally come in. If you have the opportunity later, it is good to learn his makeup skills.

Holmes ate the food in front of him, put the knife and fork, and gave a contented sigh.

"Tomorrow I have a friend from France coming. Would you like to meet him with me?"

"Well, what does he do?"

"I'm a detective like me. His name is Francois Le Vial. He's a fledgling newcomer. He's not very famous, but I worked with him in a case in France last year. Very interesting guy, although a bit rough, but also has great potential. He didn't say anything in the telegram, but it is obviously impossible for such a long distance to come to London to just come on vacation. Let's see if he came to me this time. what's the matter."

Early the next morning Sherlock Holmes and Zhang Heng arrived at the pier. They waited in the thick fog for the steamer named Seagull to dock.

"It's funny, isn't it," Holmes said with a cane. "Before Watt invented the steam engine, no one thought that ships could sail on water without relying on sails and paddles, but this magical machine did change a lot of things, no matter the factory. It ’s still a boat or a train, and it ’s inseparable now. This is the charm of science. The world is changing every day. No matter what kind of industry you are in, if you do n’t notice the changes, you will soon be caught by this. Eliminated by the world, for example, such as alkaloids, this highly toxic substance was only discovered decades ago, but I noticed that it has appeared more and more frequently in recent cases, because Due to traditional methods of murder, the use of alkaloids is more hidden and difficult to detect. "

"Can't agree more." Zhang Hengdao, in the era of information explosion, all kinds of new crimes have been emerging endlessly, both criminal investigators and powerful criminals need continuous learning.

Sherlock Holmes can become the best detective in the entire Great Britain and even in Europe, of course, he will not be a complacent person. His research and small papers have also played a role in this.

Of course, some of the experimental researches he conducted still need to be demonstrated in terms of safety and morality.

After a quarter of an hour, Vial stepped down from the Seagull. This was a young man with red hair, and he could see that he was indeed young, with freckles on his face. There was a touch of excitement and happiness after seeing Holmes. A shy look.

It's like a little fanboy met his idol.

"I'll finally see you again, Mr. Holmes," Vial said with an excitement as he shook hands.

"I'm also glad to see you, Vial." Holmes also said, and then gave a brief introduction to the two.

"I'm here to follow someone in London this time, and come to visit you by the way." Vial continued after shaking hands with Zhang Heng.

"Who are you following?" Holmes really was different from ordinary people, skipped the polite words, and went straight to the point of interest.

"A robber, he has done a lot of cases since his debut, but few people know his existence."

"Oh, why is this?"

"Because he is different from other thieves, he does not deal with valuable things such as jewelry or cultural relics. He pays more attention to the value behind the target object." Vial explained, "His goals are generally placed in On the celebrity, this guy is bold, even the royal families of European countries will become his prey. Once he is caught by him, he will start to dig out those unspeakable secrets behind you. Maybe it is a rare extramarital affair, maybe It was a murder that you committed in the early years ... Anyway, it was some bad intentions ~ www.novelhall.com ~ Once you let him steal something that can be used as evidence, the owner will be miserable, and he will face a huge blackmail. It ’s even worse that they can only eat Coptis dumb, and it ’s impossible to find the police. "

"Is it an honorary thief or an extortionist? What did your employer lose?" Holmes asked with interest.

Viale hesitated and said, "If it is someone else, I cannot say according to the contents of the agreement, but I believe you and your friends, you are all gentlemen of good character ..."

"Okay, just skip the link for wearing a high hat for us, just talk about the key points." Holmes waved.

"Oh, well, my employer is a Viscount. He loves Canaletto's oil paintings. About nine years ago, a well-known collector at the time stole and lost a lot of things, including one of them. Deputy Canaletto's oil painting. After two years, someone found my employer and said that he had something good to ask him. My employer recognized at a glance that the man was holding the previous collector. The lost oil painting of Canaletto, he knows that people like him should not be robbed, but he really likes the painting so much that he has been thinking about it for a long time, and has been rejected from several collectors. Rare opportunity now, so he chose a more roundabout way.

"On the bright side, he rejected the person's request to buy and sell, and rightly asked the other party not to step into his house, but found an unrelated person in the back to buy the painting, these He didn't show the paintings in the exhibition, they were all appreciated by himself, but somehow he was discovered by that guy. I came to London just to deal with this matter. "Viryadao.

But soon he added, "Of course, visiting you is more important to me."
