"Do we need to step in to investigate?" Rhett put down the newspaper, "and the police don't seem to have a clue." ”

"It's just that the incident happened suddenly, and it will take a long time for the police to deploy, and this case seems to be a bit special, so even if there are any clues, the police will not easily tell the public. Lance stretched, "Moriarty has done some small tricks inside, London is the base of his underground dynasty, and it is not surprising that any case involves him." ”

Red nodded, "I know that. ”

"I know, you know. Lance picked up and laughed to himself, "You can't answer me, or we'll end up dead end, darling." ”

Red raised his eyebrows slightly, but he didn't answer according to Lance's meaning, although the two have been together for a long time, but the other party's brain hole is still a world that he can't control.

"But beyond this case, what makes me more concerned is what Sherlock is dealing with now. Lance smiled, "It's certainly not easy to get Sherlock interested. ”

Red spread his hands, "Shall we just sit here now and do nothing?"

"Not really. Lance shook his head again, "If we are really needed, someone will come to the door, maybe it is Moriarty's arrangement." ”

As he spoke, there was a knock on the door.

Lance opened the drawer in the living room, took out his gun, and walked to the door, and saw through the cat's eye that it was someone again, and it was Lestrade again.

As usual, he hid his gun back and pulled the door open, and Lance assured himself that his smile was not to be faulty.

“dyou.” The sheriff's expression was serious.

Lance tilted his face slightly, "Or a friend." ”

"I'm sorry," Lestrade blinked, bewildered, "what are you talking about?"

"It's not been peaceful lately. Lance turned sideways and stepped aside, "I'm glad you've been alone when you came to my house lately, and maybe we're friends." ”

Lestrade obviously didn't expect Lance to say this, and he stammered a little, "When, of course, I mean of course, we're friends. ”

Then he entered the door.

Rhett entered the kitchen without pause, and by the time Lestrade sat down on the couch, he had already come out with a tea set.

Lestrade nodded, then noticed the newspaper on the table, and rubbed his temples with a headache, "You're reading this too." ”

"After all, it's a big case that happened recently. Lance smiled at Red, took the teapot and poured a cup for the sheriff, then poured it for himself and Red, "Still no news from Sherlock?"

"Nope. Lestrade shook his head, "Sherlock was busy with other cases and couldn't get out of it, so he recommended you to me." ”

Lance raised his eyebrows when he heard this, a little surprised.

Lestrade turned his head and shrugged his shoulders, "Okay, or rather Watson recommends." ”

"You know we're from country A?" Lance pulled the corners of his mouth, "Let's get involved?"

Lestrade sighed, "I believe in Sherlock, and we need help urgently. ”

"Sherlock?"

"Okay, there's someone else. ”

The way to intervene in the case is much simpler than the two imagined, and it may be worth counting how many people have contributed to it, but it is enough to make sure that they are indeed needed.

Because of the robbery, the air around the jewelry store seemed to be full of tension, and when I got out of the police car, I saw that there were still a few people looking around the jewelry store.

Lance looked left and right, and suddenly asked, "If this case is the jewelry store itself......"

Lestrade blinked, "You mean insiders?"

"No, although the idea is a bit despicable, this theft and the high attention of the police will give the public the illusion that the jewelry in this store is very beautiful and will be spied on, and the jewelry store is only a place to sell jewelry and not a place to store jewelry for customers. Lance touched his chin, "The police should rule this out first." ”

Lestrade coughed dryly, "We're doing it." ”

"Is security there that night?" Rhett turned his face sideways, "I'd like to ask a few questions." ”

"I remember showing you the transcript, is there anything missing?" said Lestrade, but pointed in the same direction, "there." ”

"It's pretty much the same as Sherlock's, and you can tell if he's hiding something through the conversation. "Spencer is an expert. ”

"Mind reading?" Lestrade moved his lips, but didn't dig too deep, "I've heard of some, but the police at Scotland Yard are the ones who have the power to speak, and there are very few foreign helpers like Sherlock. ”

"Who says it's not, after all, detectives like the ones mentioned in the TV series are very rare in reality. ”

"Those TV series where detectives are the main characters?" Lestrade continued, "The police don't like that very much, the police in those plots have an IQ below ordinary people and have an inexplicable hostility towards the protagonist, which is not good." ”

Lance gave Les Triad a deep look.

Security is a middle-aged man in his fifties, with a touching hairline but a very strong look, and the arms wrapped in security's wealth are a little tight.

"Mr. Seth, we have a few questions for you. Lestrade spoke first, waving his hand to let the officer who was talking to the security guard next to him leave.

"What else is the problem?" said Mr. Seth, with some impatience in his tone.

Red swallowed, "Well, if you could, was anything different going on that night?"

"The jewel was stolen?" Seth sneered, "it's not something I can control, I don't even know when it's gone." ”

"Maybe it's a little noise you suddenly heard while you're walking around with a flashlight, or maybe it's a vague black shadow, or maybe it's when your wife called you to check on the post. Lance blinked, "Or maybe you spilled your coffee and went to the bathroom to clean up, and um ate pizza." ”

Seth frowned, "It looks like Mr. Police has my whereabouts in his hands, so why are you still asking me?"

"I'm not a police officer. Lance shrugged.

Seth also shrugged his shoulders, "What does this have to do with me." His eyes swept around and then at Lance and Red, and finally took a slight breath, "Listen, I'm just a security guard, but I'm already very cooperative with the police, I can assure you that I didn't miss any clues, those jewels just disappeared out of thin air, and the surveillance footage is there, I can guarantee that no one has stopped in front of that door." ”

“ok~”

Lance didn't ask any further, and nodded at Lestrade.

Lestrade probably knew that it was already possible, and beckoned the two of them to walk inside the jewelry store.

"Sherlock told me about the basic deduction, and you just used something similar?"

"It's not so profound, the basic deduction method is biased towards the facts, and the truth of the whole thing is deduced from the details, while what we use is biased towards human psychology, and the psychological characteristics of the relevant people are inferred from the methods of the case, and of course, the gender, age, occupation, race, and recent dynamics of the criminals that the police are most concerned about. Lance groaned, "Maybe you can really absorb some police officers with relevant experience and skills, after all, according to me, this kind of talent is very helpful in solving crimes." ”

Lestrade licked his lips and didn't answer.

"He knows something. Red pursed his lips, "He's not going to hide it, he's already told everything he knows, but he didn't hide it." ”

"Yes. Lance agreed, "It's not a conflict, cooperate with the police but choke important clues behind the scenes, and the police are helpless." ”

Lestrade nodded, "I'll keep my colleague on the lookout for him." ”

"What about the owner of the jewelry store, and what is his attitude?"

"The attitude towards the police was very eager, but at first I was reluctant to cooperate with the investigation, just saying that it was the jewelry store's own fault, and the police expanded the investigation because there were more important people in the stolen jewelry who did not want to stop there. "But after really intervening in the investigation, I found out that the case was very tricky." ”

"Just like the security said, nothing special happened and there was monitoring, but in the blink of an eye, the warehouse on the second floor was opened, and the security reported to the police after discovering it, and then the person in charge came over and counted and found that there were jewels missing, and it is worth saying that it was 5:23 when the door was opened. ”

"The door opened by itself, and five o'clock doesn't seem to be the traditional time to commit a crime. Lance asked.

"We'll go to the police station later. Lestrade replied.

Although there were some onlookers standing outside the jewelry store, there were not many customers inside the jewelry store, and there were several ladies in front of each small counter carefully selecting jewelry, and after the merchandise area went upstairs, I saw several police officers standing in front of the door pulled up with yellow seals.

Although it was tightly guarded, the personnel inside had obviously finished their work and were packing up their equipment.

"We've spent so much time in this room that we've rolled up almost everywhere we can stick to the dust. "Sherlock's old acquaintance who spoke, Anderson, who has always had a big opinion, but looking at his current face, I know that even without Sherlock, he has always had a big opinion,"

Hey, look, who are these two?

As far as I know, they're not even native British. ”

"Do you have state discrimination?" Lance clasped his arms.

"I don't want to make things bad, but I have to make sure I'm not. Anderson turned his head to look at Lestrade, "Don't say it's Sherlock's idea. ”

"It's the advice from above. Lestrade shrugged his shoulders, "Tell us what we've found." ”

Anderson nodded, "We have done a comparative test of the footprints on the scene, and some subtle debris, unfortunately nothing has been found, in fact, most of the footprints that appeared at the scene are the staff here, they were all here when we arrived here, and the scene was not well protected." Anderson was helpless, "Yesterday and today were almost spent looking for small details, which is simply a waste of time, it is worth saying that the safe has traces of being pried open, but according to the manager, the password entered is correct, and there are no fingerprints on it." ”

Red wasn't very good at talking to people who weren't very friendly, which made him more nervous, though it didn't interfere with his thinking, so he ran to the pried open safe himself while Anderson was rambling on.

Bending down to carefully observe the pry open marks, he suddenly turned his head, "The direction of this mark is left-handed." ”

Lance listened distractedly, and felt that it was better for him to send his mind to another world. 166 Reading Network
