The fourth round of carriage arrived at dusk when the female corpse was salvaged.

Gregson left 2 hands to look after the corpse, and they covered the poor child with a blanket from the boatman, so that she did n’t have to be exposed to the eyes of the idlers around her, and now they can do it too. Only these.

The three of them stepped off the carriage, and Gregson noticed that there was already a reporter-like guy in the crowd, playing with a bulky camera.

“These guys can’t be flicked like fleas.” Gregson muttered, not very happy, but this case has no clue so far, maybe you can try to ask the newspaper to find the victim Family, so he walked over to the reporter.

Holmes on the other side did not rush to open the blanket, but first chatted with the policeman who found the corpse, and then strolled around all around for a while, so that he walked slowly to the corpse.

Zhang Heng had covered his nose and looked at it silently.

The taste of the Thames is not very good. Before the 19th century, the river was clear and fish and shrimp were in groups. However, after the industrial revolution, as the city expanded, a large number of factories were built along the river, and industrial waste water and domestic sewage continuously flowed. The rapid deterioration of the environment on the Thames, coupled with the floating garbage on the water, has become a stinking ditch not just in name only, but also in reality.

However, the government is obviously aware of the problems, and built an interception type underground sewage system and a sewer parallel to the Thames River in an attempt to transfer the pollution of the urban area to the downstream as much as possible. It must be admitted that this method has indeed played a role. effect.

Zhang Heng looked at it for a while, and like Gregson, what he could see from the body was very limited.

Sherlock Holmes said it well, and his observation ability is also very good, but in the subsequent reasoning section needs to have sufficient knowledge to support, Zhang Heng in addition to not like Holmes like the brain case library, the biggest problem is his At the time, the understanding of the city was limited to books and movies, or a two BBC documentaries.

As a layman watching this lively person, this knowledge may be enough, but it is obviously not enough to use this knowledge to solve the case.

For example, Sherlock Holmes can judge the brand and origin of a cigarette that a person smokes through clothes or ashes on the ground. Zhang Heng may also be able to notice details that these ordinary people cannot notice, but he does not know that there are What brand of cigarettes naturally cannot complete the next reasoning.

Zhang Heng realized that he wanted to complete the main line task is not an easy task. The most unfavorable thing about the competition between him and Sherlock Holmes is that he is in the age of the other party. All was as dangerous as before, but the actual difficulty was the largest of the copies he has experienced.

Fortunately, he has enough time to meet the challenge.

Sherlock Holmes squatted on the ground and carefully examined the body. During the period, he deliberately took out the magnifying glass and focused on the lady’s palm and hair. Even the nails were not let go. At this moment, he no longer looks like the previous lazily. It looked like a well-trained hound. At the end, he almost attached the whole body to the corpse, and faced the face of the female corpse. His eyes moved all the way down, and finally stopped for a moment on the neck of the latter.

Then he stood up again, the dust on the pats clothes, asked Zhang Heng, “What do you see?”

“Well, it should be murder, the victim is a woman, 15 to 16 years old, the body seems to be a little weak, and may have a disease in itself. The cause of death is not drowning, because the head has been hit hard, and …” Zhang Heng paused, ” The victim was likely to have been violated before she died. “

“Not bad.” Holmes laughed. “You are not a forensic doctor. You can see that so many things are not easy anymore. Take your time.”

He was saying that Gregson on the other side had finally finished coping with the reporter, took out his handkerchief and wiped the sweat from his forehead, and came over, “It ’s already done. That ’s the reporter from Echo, wait for him. Let’s take a photo on the front page so that if the child’s family sees it, they should come to the police station to find us. By the way, how are you doing here. “

“I don’t know the child’s name yet,” Holmes said leisurely.

Gregson ’s emotions are a little bit complicated. Hearing this is both disappointing and faintly glad, opened the mouth and said, “Ah, this is also something that ca n’t be done. In fact, I did everything I could do before, but the victim After all, there are no clothes left. It is too difficult to find clues. It seems that I still have to wait for the letter from the newspaper. “

“That’s not necessary.” Holmes looked funny, lit his pipe and took a deep breath, dispelling the smell of the river.

Sheriff hearing this was stunned, “How do you say this?”

“If I were you, I would send someone to investigate the John Textile Mill, which is one mile away here, where the child works. In addition, the murderer is a man, and he is an acquaintance of this child, but he always has Inconceivable, with a height of 6 feet, strong strength, and scratches on his body, especially his arm. “

Sherlock Holmes finished, and regained his unsatisfactory appearance, and said to Zhang Heng, “Let ’s go, our work is done, by chance, it ’s not too early. How about having dinner together? Just go to Houben Restaurant Well, the ham there has always been my favorite. “

“Respect is worse than obedience,” Zhang Heng said.

“We call it carriage ourselves, so you don’t bother to send us over again, Sergeant.” Holmes then said to the stunned Gregson, “Why are you still standing, since you have got the clue you want Now, hurry to solve the case. “

…………

Half an hour later, Zhang Heng and Holmes were sitting at the dining table in Hoben restaurant.

The waiter poured pre-dinner red wine for 2 people. The tragic incident that happened on the Thames River was also diluted by the sound of the music in the ear.

Sherlock Holmes held the glass and looked at the opposite Zhang Heng with interest. It was like discovering something interesting. After a while, he said, “You can really breathe, I am more and more interested in you , But it does n’t matter. It ’s still some time before serving food. If you have any questions, I must know everything.

“Then I’m welcome, how did you reason about where the female child worked, and how did you know the rough characteristics of the murderer?” Zhang Heng finally asked.
