Chapter 145 One copy. Another copy.
Looking at the man's back, Sherlock felt that this man seemed quite interesting.

He is very clear about Moriarty's methods. There is absolutely no possibility of any loopholes in that personal resume, and regarding the appearance on the Day of Holy Love, it is absolutely suppressed by the operation of the Holy Son. In other words, his own Must have entered the screening as a civilian.

That being the case, the doubts shown by the people around you are the attitude you should have.

This is not to say that these judges are uneducated or self-proclaimed, but that as judicial officers of the Holy See, they should have such pride, which is a subconscious maintenance of the majesty of the Holy See.

So this judge named Hopkins was a little too friendly to himself.

Not just being friendly, but even having an unreasonably high evaluation of myself.
Looking at the man again, he found that he had already sat back in the crowd, and some people wearing court robes also approached naturally, and it could be seen that he had a good prestige among the crowd.

"Civilian?" A rough-looking man seemed a little displeased: "I don't quite understand the significance of this person's existence in this lounge. The old fellows from the School of Life Sciences think that their case should be judged by the court or not." Not enough? Why do we have to call so many people and do some screening.

Even if they don't want too many people to get involved, they are going to let this case be investigated secretly, or they are concerned about the government's face.

OK, I can understand this.

But what about this private eye? "

It can be heard between the lines that this person is very dissatisfied with the arrangement of the Academy of Sciences.

"So, do you think there's something wrong with my showing of favor to that person just now?" Hopkins looked at the person beside him indifferently.

"Of course not, I just think that a private detective might not be of much help, and that's it." The man was glanced at, and quickly explained, but his tone became weaker and weaker, and finally shut up altogether.

Hopkins sipped the drink in his cup: "I don't care what you think, but we must go all out for this screening. The School of Life Sciences seems to be acting secretly and doesn't want to make a fuss, but in fact it has used extremely complicated network, invitations were sent to various administrative districts throughout the empire.

And the most important thing is that this incident invited the Holy See and the government to intervene at the same time. Either the people from the Academy of Life Sciences are stupid, or they have absolutely sufficient reasons and an absolutely urgent situation.

I promise, this case is definitely not simple.

That being the case, if we make a contribution in this operation, what we can get will definitely be an unimaginable wealth, and it may even affect the future orientation and attitude of the Academy of Life Sciences towards the Holy See.

So, cheer me up! "

Hopkins is only 34 years old this year, and has just been in the trial court for three years, but he has already achieved the seat of the third division judge.

Although the people around are all judges, and they seem to have similar positions, almost all of them have worked for nearly ten years before they have their current status.

There are even rumors that this genius who has been employed for three years will take over as the presiding judge next year.

Then according to this rate, he is likely to be promoted to trial in the next few years, and even become one of the top jurors in the trial court before the age of 50.

Even after the opening of the holy calendar, the youngest trial judge?
Although all of this is just speculation and imagination under the best circumstances, Mr. Hopkins has indeed demonstrated extremely amazing strength in a short period of time, whether it is strategy, reasoning, decision-making, execution, or unconstrained divergence Thinking, and intuition that can be called terrifying, easily become the best person in this generation.

The strong should be respected.

"Yes!"

The voices of the few people around were not loud, but they all responded very cautiously.

Hopkins nodded. In fact, several colleagues around him are also extremely outstanding people, otherwise it would be impossible to receive the invitation letter. It’s just that some are too proud, some are too pious, or because they are too smart, so It seemed a little lazy, in short, he was not worried about the performance of these people in the screening for a while.

So in the process just now, his gaze has been "inadvertently" sweeping across the civilian detective not far away, and his gaze has become more and more cautious and fierce.

London is a very common city, and the capital of steam is often mentioned in the case files of the court.

Just half a year ago, there was a case in London in which the wife of a deacon of the Judiciary was tortured and killed. Originally, this kind of case was not very eye-catching for a court whose supervision covers the whole empire. Fucking another pope's daughter' is really too childish for such a thing.

But coincidentally, this London case was handled by Hopkins.

Although the case was already over when he handled it, and the deacon of the adjudicator had been killed on the spot, but on the case list, there was actually only one combat nun and one high priest.

Although the strength of these two people is not weak, but compared with the guy who only knows how to chase and kill in the Judgment Department, it seems that they are not enough.

Even with the addition of dozens of temporary steam armors, it won't work.

With this kind of suspicion, Hopkins finally turned his attention to a "temporary assistance" private detective after reading the files many times.

Although the private detective's name was not mentioned in the case file, let alone what he did, Hopkins felt that the private detective definitely played an incomparable role in this case. important role.

In fact, he is the key to the safe resolution of this case.

After several hours of waiting, finally, all the people who entered the screening today arrived.

The School of Life Sciences also adhered to their usual style of conduct, without any opening remarks, and there was no time for everyone to introduce each other, and even did not change places. A staff member walked into the rest room pushing a trolley room.

And on the trolley, there was a stack of papers, or test papers.

No one expected that the Academy of Life Sciences, the most cutting-edge and high-end scientific research institution in the entire empire, used such a primitive method of screening places.

However, the thickness of the stack of test papers made everyone present feel a rush of oppression.

It is nearly two meters thick, and it needs to be tied with cloth straps on the trolley, and the length of each piece of paper is about half a meter long by visual inspection.

There are about 30 people in the lounge now, so if they are evenly distributed, how many questions does one person need to do!

I'm afraid I can't finish reading it.
Just when everyone was astonished, the staff member who pushed the car in was very polite, bowed slightly to everyone, and then said:
"Hi everyone, as you can see, these are the test questions used for this screening test." He patted the test paper next to him that was about to reach the ceiling:

"Here are the real dossiers collected from the major administrative regions of the empire. Of course, the closed part has been removed, leaving only clues and testimonies and so on. Among them, the regions are different, the time is different, and even different times, different places, and respective administrative regions There are also differences in the laws between different countries. In short, what everyone here has to do is to find out the perpetrators of these cases just like the investigators at that time.

If you have completed one dossier, you can come to get another one. If you feel that the dossier in your hand is not suitable for you, you can also come and change it. The whole test lasts until midnight. During this period, you can use it as you like. If you feel tired, you can also go to the rest room to sleep. If you need to talk with family or friends, the lounge is also equipped with a telephone.

Of course, everyone has their own habits. If you need some special equipment, cigarette brands, alcohol, or chocolate, etc., you can tell our staff. We will try our best to help you complete it when conditions permit.

After the time is over, the Academy of Sciences will have dedicated personnel to count their performance. The judging criteria include but are not limited to correct rate, quantity, suitable case types, amazing ideas, description of the thinking process, and so on.

Then
The test begins. "

After finishing speaking, the man divided the test papers beside him into several stacks, then walked to the corner of the room, and stood there very upright, like a sculpture.

A moment of silence.
Some people in the room were still marveling at how simple and rude the screening test of the Academy of Life Sciences was, and directly dragged all the cases within the scope of the Quan Empire as topics; Better answering strategies; more people are looking at each other, expressing their surprise at the length of the test and their dissatisfaction with the operation of "can't change it".

But the good thing is, no one wants to cheat.
As I said before, the people here are all elites in their respective fields. Of course, they would not choose to cheat or take advantage of loopholes in this situation. Not only their self-esteem would not allow it, but the key point is that they would not treat the Academy of Life Sciences as a fool. Even more will not joke about their own future.

Soon, the first person stood up, went to the file and flipped through it, then took a copy and went back to his seat to read it carefully.

Immediately afterwards, everyone got up, and they all selected the files that they seemed to be good at. Suddenly, the entire lounge became extremely quiet, only the sound of some pens scratching the paper.

And Sherlock also took a file, but he didn't choose it, but walked over, touched the top one, and came back.

This kind of behavior of his did not attract too many people's attention. After all, he seemed to be good at it, but he might not be really good at it. The progress of the case was complicated and no one could predict it.

But 15 minutes after he returned to his seat, he suddenly got up again. Instead of putting back the file just now, he took another one directly.

A few people raised their heads and saw this scene, but they didn't care much, and soon turned their attention to their own tests again.

Until another 20 minutes passed.

"Kara~~"

It was the soft sound of the sofa chair rubbing against the ground. Sherlock got up again, and then went to the trolley, and took another one without picking it.

Finally, some people cast puzzled and even extremely displeased eyes on it.

"This guy is not making trouble, is he?"
