"Have you checked the maid who cleaned the room?" Holmes took out his pipe and filled it with tobacco.

"Check, although the maid has been working in the house for two years, the old housekeeper detained her and searched her for the first time. No oil painting was found, and she entered the room and came out again. The old housekeeper who was looking for the opposite door has not been anywhere else in the middle, so her suspicion in this case can be ruled out. "Viard said.

After a pause, he went on to say, "Through the relationship of the Viscount, I also found two other victims who had been patronized by Mr. M. Listening to their descriptions is similar to the situation this time. I have received a letter from Mr. M. One of them was stolen while on vacation, and the other is more prominent than Mr. Viscount. His things are better hidden, but he was lost. The guy was like Like a magician, no matter what secret room can be drilled in, everyone plays with the palm of his hand. "

Holmes heard nothing, lit a cigarette and took a breath. "One of the best thieves I've ever encountered is a dwarf performing in a circus. His body is only half the height of a child, and he is thin and can slip into you from the chimney At home, he can squeeze through a very narrow gap by means of shrinking bones, but even he can't leave no trace at all. "

"So I can't figure out how that guy did it, so I can only ask you." Vial respectfully said.

"Okay," Holmes smiled. "Since I've promised to help you, and I'm interested in this case, I'm sure I won't let it go, but for now we'll find a place for you in London first. . "

The three arrived in front of a hotel in a carriage. While Vial checked in, Holmes stood in the lobby with a smoking pipe to check the passengers coming and going.

"Do you think Mr. M will be among them?" Zhang Heng asked.

"Who knows?" Holmes spit out a ring of smoke and saw that he was in a good mood now. "We are very lucky today, Zhang. I encountered such an interesting case early in the morning. Viale will surprise us. Hey, this guy did not disappoint me. "

"..." Zhang Heng was a little bit crying. The more thorny the case with Vial was, the more happy Holmes was. The detective's thinking was really different from ordinary people.

"Do you have any idea about the whereabouts of the oil painting?" Zhang Heng asked later.

Holmes didn't answer, but instead asked, "You, do you have any ideas?"

On the way, Zhang Heng was also thinking about this case, trying to integrate all the clues, dragging Weier's blessing. The red-haired detective did a thorough investigation on the scene, which was just turning over the Viscount's mansion. It looked like it was immersive.

Zhang Heng thought for a while, "You said before that all bizarre and unscientific options were ruled out, and the rest is the truth. No thief's skill can be as good as this. He stepped on the soil without leaving any traces, bypassing it. The hound did not cause any movement, and I watched the layout of the house. Except for the old housekeeper to the door, the chef did not sleep that night and was busy in the kitchen. He was not far away, and the door of the room They are usually locked, so I think the problem is still with the maid who cleans. "

Holmes looked at Zhang Heng with the same eyes as a rare animal in a zoo, and then he exclaimed, "My mysterious Oriental traveller friend, no matter how long you have known you, you can always surprise people, don't you? It ’s great to know you. Although you are still studying with me, you can already stand alone with your ability. You are much better than those of my mediocre colleagues outside. Newcomers like Seoul are not as good as you, and maybe it won't be long before you can become a strong competitor to me, so the world may not be so boring to me. "

This evaluation is already very high for Holmes. Although there are still suspicions of self-proclaimed self-confidence, it can make the detective who has always been proud to say such things, and prove that Zhang Heng really made him look.

Sherlock Holmes continued, "Haha, when I saw that note, I immediately thought of the murder in the secret room of Castle Combe. At that time, there were rumors that the victim was killed by the ghost, because all the doors and windows They are all closed and cannot be opened from the outside, and the scene of the murder inside is very **** and has a strong sense of revenge, so the locals believe that only ghosts can do it, and even many police believe it. Ghost Revenge ~ www.readwn.com ~ But like I said, exclude those impossible interference items, and the rest will be the correct answer, even if it seems unbelievable on the surface, it turns out that the victim is the murderer himself He killed himself by extreme means. That was an interesting case, because the victim had always buried a secret in his heart. That secret had troubled him for a long time. He felt guilty for a wrong he had done when he was young. This guilt accompanied his life, and at the time his physical condition was very bad, he had terminal illness, and he was worried that the offspring of the other party would come Revenge of his wife and daughter, only the use of such means to repay the debt he then owed injustice.

"The situation this time is also very close. I looked at Viaer's notes and ruled out the possibility of outsiders entering. This left only a possibility for family thieves. After all, buying a woman with a weekly salary of less than one pound Maid is much easier than sneaking into a heavily guarded mansion. If I were Mr. M, I would choose a way. "

Zhang Heng frowned. "The letters on the ground are very well explained. They were brought by the maids long ago. They were put there during cleaning and the paintings were stolen by her, but the only problem I haven't figured out yet, she is How did you escape and check, was that housekeeper also her complicity? "

"You are close to the final answer, my Oriental friend." Holmes blinked, excited, "I believe that if you give you a little more time for half a day, you can think of it, and you will find oil paintings in this matter. The link is not difficult. The hard part is how to catch Mr. M. He has to admit that his imagination and talents are very good as a thief. I think his style of work is necessarily a cautious and patient person. I want to catch this It's not easy for the guy, but London is our home. It won't make sense to let him run away. "
