Chapter 74 Deductive Reasoning
When Watson woke up in the morning, he still remembered Gottlob Janings's face, his invitation and contact information.
He was not in a hurry. He was still lying in bed, and the pain left by William was still lingering. It was not the time to leave... But he didn't need to wait for long. Maybe he could be discharged from the hospital next week. After all, the thirst for killing in his heart could no longer wait.
Watson was very idle. His article "Shock! Another riot case comparable to the explosion of the Capitol was strangled in the cradle!", which was modeled after the style of the original Sherlock Holmes detective collection, had been successfully published under the operation of Stanford Jr., and it still occupied a prominent section in newspapers.
Once it was published, it caused heated discussions. Londoners were very interested in the deductive reasoning method in the article. There were even bold reporters who planned to go to 221B Baker Street to interview the protagonist of the article, Miss Charlotte Holmes, in person to discuss the practicality of the deductive reasoning method with her.
Unfortunately, the female detective has been immersed in the secret knowledge of the Anti-Suppression Bureau in recent days. The Sherlock Holmes Detective Agency has been closed for several days, and all reporters who came and went were turned away.
Until today, the female detective who had slept all day in the family manor due to staying up late for a long time finally went out. She had browsed all the confidential information open to the second-level investigators in the Anti-Suppression Bureau. Those dangerous words that would cause an uproar once leaked have been engraved in the palace in her brain. She needs a quiet time to sort out the knowledge in her brain, summarize and summarize an orderly knowledge system, and add it to the reasoning reserve knowledge room in the palace of thinking, so that her deductive reasoning formula can also be applied to the group of evil secret believers who master supernatural powers.
However, when Victor drove the four-seater carriage to Baker Street, Charlotte Holmes in the carriage felt the particularly enthusiastic attention of the neighbors. She seemed to hear the whispers of the gossiping women, and the children who were not yet of school age followed the carriage all the way, applauding and cheering, singing their own simple ballads:
"The Great Detective - Charlotte!"
"Heroine - Holmes!"
"Deductive reasoning penetrates people's hearts, and careful thinking solves murders!"
"Four gunshots resounded through the sky, and the rioters fled in a hurry!"
"Single-handedly killed William, and scared the villains to urinate!"
"Who is the number one detective in London? It must be this female detective!"
Even Charlotte Holmes, who is as tough as her mind, couldn't help but blush when she heard the children's innocent and overly simple flattery. It was because the window curtains were enough to cover her pretty face, otherwise she would probably cover her face with her hands to hide her inner shyness.
But at the same time, she thought to herself, "William McConaughey is mentioned in these children's songs? Who made the arrest of the Flash Blade Cult public? And why didn't the Suppression Bureau block the information? Aren't they worried that the forbidden knowledge will be spread to innocent people?!!!"
That being said, the female detective immediately thought that since the Suppression Bureau dared to make this matter public, it must have considered the risk of the leakage of taboo knowledge and deleted the dangerous truth, leaving only the part that is harmless to mortals.
But... why did they castrate the content of this case and make it public? In the past, the cases handled by the Suppression Bureau have always been handled in secret, and there has never been a precedent for disseminating them to the outside world in the form of deletions. Why did they start to make an exception from here?
Was it Uncle Jack's intention? He wanted to use this case as an example to warn other evil secret believers hiding in the city and deter this group of lunatics who pursue taboo knowledge?
This is a good method. Even if this will push me to the opposite side of all the evil cultists in London, I will declare to them with practical actions that London is not a place where you crazy people can do whatever you want! ! !
Charlotte Holmes opened the carriage door with such a strong desire to fight. As soon as she got off the carriage, she saw a group of reporters sitting in front of the detective agency smoking and chatting. There was even a most advanced Baker twin-lens reflex camera next to them.
When these reporters who had been waiting for a long time saw the tall beauty who got off the four-seater carriage, their eyes suddenly burst into hungry light like hungry wolves. They swarmed up with their notebooks and pens.
The reporter from Fu Yu Newspaper immediately called the photographer to get up and work.
With a bang, the magnesium powder burst into flames, and the black and white film recorded the slightly surprised face of the female detective... At this time, everyone present could not imagine that this photo would be widely circulated in the future.
"Dear Miss Holmes, was it true that William, the leader of the rioters, was shot by you and was not able to escape?"
"Beautiful Miss Holmes, is your deductive reasoning method really applicable to the investigation of all criminal cases? Why do other detectives say it is impractical?"
"Oh my God, I didn't expect that Miss Holmes is really as noble, cold, beautiful and pretty as described in the article... I have exhausted all the adjectives to describe your appearance. May I ask which blush you use? It looks so natural. Would you like to try our new ROUGE-FIW blush from Bourjois? It will definitely make your beauty even better!"
Although the reporter and the salesman who strayed into the carriage were anxious, the complicated emblem engraved on the side wall of the carriage reminded them all the time - the female detective in front of them is the daughter of the Duke of Holmes! Don't dare to offend casually. If you make the other party angry, we are afraid that none of us will have a good ending!
So although they asked questions at a rapid frequency, they always kept a proper degree of control, not getting too close to this tall and cold noble lady, nor asking inappropriate aristocratic gossip.
Charlotte Holmes frowned slightly in the face of this huge group of reporters and the continuous questions.
She pointed at the reporter who had just questioned the deductive reasoning method and said loudly: "There is absolutely no problem with the deductive reasoning method!"
"The deductive reasoning method is sufficient to apply to the reasoning of most criminal cases in the world!"
"Those who say that the deductive reasoning method is useless are just because their dull and stupid brains cannot support the logical thinking required for deductive reasoning and cannot establish an effective reasoning process. Obviously, there are such obvious prerequisites, and all other factors can be removed, leaving only the only inevitable truth! But they still can't infer the correct result... Isn't this because they are incompetent?"
The female detective's bold words are like a meteorite falling into an already turbulent sea, setting off a bigger and higher terrifying wave. All reporters were in an uproar. The reporter who knew how to capture the key points and misinterpret the true meaning had quietly written in his notebook - the great detective Sherlock Holmes challenged the male detectives in the city: You are all a bunch of fools! "
The rest of the people were discussing the words of the female detective, discussing whether this deductive reasoning method was really so magical.
Charlotte Holmes was not discouraged by these doubts. She knew that ignorant mortals would find it difficult to accept the facts, and she was determined to use actions to justify the name of deductive reasoning.
She quickly looked at the reporter who had just directed the photographer, and said in a deep voice: "You have just returned from the African continent. Your skin is darker than the climate of Great Britain or even Europe can cause. You have an industrial product unique to the African continent hanging around your neck."
"And you just divorced recently. Your ring finger still has the pale trace of a wedding ring worn for a long time. I guess you must have married quickly in Africa and then divorced quickly. "
The reporter's lips slightly parted, his expression dull. He had never expected that his past could be revealed so easily, and he was shocked.
This appearance further confirmed that what the female detective said was true, and the reporters became more and more excited to discuss it.
And Miss Charlotte Holmes, whose name as a great detective will spread throughout the world from today on, just quietly pushed away the crowd and returned to her detective agency.
