149 The End of the World [13]

Connie was about to speak, when a large hand appeared in front of her. She froze, and looked up to see Sherlock's gaze looking away.

This is a characteristic gesture he makes when signaling others to be quiet.

Connie followed his gaze, and a girl in a white lab coat walked in through the doorway, her skin glowing white.

At first glance, it is the kind of photo killer with a small face and big eyes, with white glowing skin.

It's enviable.

Connie muttered, and Sherlock stepped up.

Alice was stunned for a moment when she saw the strange man in front of her, and wanted to take a step to the left to skip him, but the man opposite also took a step to the right, she didn't care, and moved a step to the right.

“…… Sir, is there something wrong? She looked up at the man, and the gaze was as indifferent as the perspective light, which startled her.

It seems to be glass wrapped in the world's hardest glass, which is crystal clear but also the sharpest.

For a moment, Alice had the illusion that a heart had been pulled out for a closer look.

"Alice? What are you doing here? Didn't you say you weren't feeling well yesterday? Darwin walked up and asked.

Alice looked at him: "Eugene, I'm fine, I'm going to work." ”

Sherlock's eyes twinkled.

Suddenly said: "You like him, so why did you cheat on Espo?" This sentence hit Alice's head like a thunderbolt and turned her into a fossil.

Connie's eyes widened subconsciously, her gaze darling back and forth between Darwin and Alice.

"What nonsense are you talking about!?" After a moment, Alice asked angrily, a pair of frowning brows, but her impatient lips exposed her, and Sherlock could tell how panicked she was now.

"Really? Am I talking nonsense? He glanced Alice up and down, and finally his gaze rested on the white coat that was being worn on Alice.

"You've just finished bathing, and you've carefully groomed your appearance so that you don't look any haggard, and you even used lipstick for that." With that, Sherlock turned and pointed to the three lipsticks.

"You use bright red, to enhance your temperament. All your clothes are new, but your lab coat has not been washed, and as a result, there are traces of Espoo on it. He raised his eyebrows, and there was a hint of indifferent smugness between his eyebrows.

He reached out and grabbed a strand of black hair from Alice's left breast pocket, and with the other hand took out a transparent pouch from his pocket, put his hair inside, and shook the bag in front of Alice's eyes.

Alice's face suddenly turned ugly and terrifying.

Connie looks at Alice's pretty little face - this is Espoo's affair partner.

"What's going on?" Darwin's voice trembled a little.

His gaze was straight on Alice, but she avoided Darwin.

Silent.

The silence is heartbreaking.

Connie looked at Darwin's face and suddenly felt that these two were a young couple who liked each other but had not yet picked out.

Then Why did Alice cheat on Espo?

Connie remembered the half-decomposed corpse, and looked at Alice's pretty little face, and suddenly felt incomprehensible, even if Darwin might not be so manly...... No, he's pretty full now.

“……”

Connie watched dumbfounded as Darwin stepped forward without saying a word, hugged Alice and kissed her.

…… Smith?

"I know, you must have been forced." He was serious, his voice gentle.

The little friends in the laboratory were stunned for a moment.

Alice burst into tears.

Connie then noticed that all of her eyes were red.

Because of the baptism of tears, the lower eyelids are dull.

This made her haggard a lot.

"Don't cry. It's okay. Darwin comforted Alice.

Sherlock retreated to Connie's side without saying a word.

"Do you want to make a bet?"

"What bet?" Connie looked over in confusion.

"As to whether Darwin will choose himself or Alice." He pursed his lips and smiled.

Connie looked at him inexplicably and hesitated: "Then I'll choose Alice." ”

After a pause, she asked again, "What do you mean?" ”

In the next second, she got the answer.

I saw Darwin let go of Alice and walked towards Sherlock.

"I don't think you're a shareholder to invest, and this young lady isn't your daughter." There was a little more certainty in his tone.

Sherlock bowed his head and looked at him.

I saw Darwin sigh: "Come with me." ”

The trio came to his office.

"What are you here for?" He stared at Sherlock.

Connie looked at Sherlock's face and consciously took over the conversation: "We're here for Espoo's case." ”

Darwin's eyes were on Connie.

"You suspect Alice did it!?"

Connie glanced at Sherlock again, still with no intention of speaking.

"She's suspicious." Connie didn't know if it had anything to do with Alice, but she didn't think it had much to do with her, but she couldn't say that, so she replied with an ambiguous answer.

"It's not! It could never be Alice! Darwin excitedly vetoed.

Connie replied calmly: "If there is any evidence to prove that at least she had an illicit personal relationship with Espo, and in the previous circumstances, she may have been forced, then she has a motive." ”

Seeing Darwin's pale face, Connie wanted to comfort him.

However, the moment he spoke, Darwin was the first to speak.

"I did it. Espoo ...... I killed it. As soon as he spoke, Connie was stunned.

"What?"

"I said, I killed Espoo! I had known about his relationship with Alice, but I was so jealous...... Alice deserves better! Darwin said in a miserable manner, with a faint madness in his expression.

Connie was stunned for a moment: "So, where were you on the day Espo was killed?" ”

Darwin was stunned and stammered a little: "I, I'm in the city." ”

Connie looked at him, silent, and frowned: "Darwin, you don't have to make such impulsive testimony because you like Alice, I think if Alice is innocent, then justice will definitely not let her be wronged." ”

Connie felt that Darwin's mind was hot, and he was about to come up to apologize for Alice, and she was a little moved, so she comforted her.

As soon as the sofa moved, Sherlock suddenly stood up, and Connie looked at him: "? ”

"Let's go back. Since Mr. Eugene's testimony is so, we should also report it to the police and let the police officers know. ”

Let the police officers know.

Connie was momentarily stunned.

How did Sherlock say that?

"Please, please clear Alice's innocence." Darwin was not alarmed by this, but was very diligent.

"If there is a need for me, I will always go to the police station."

Sherlock walked out the door, and Connie followed him, "Sherlock, you're not really going to make Darwin a scapegoat, are you?" Of course she knew Sherlock wouldn't.

But she couldn't guess what he was thinking now.

Behind the slowly closing door, a man in a suit smiled very faintly.

Sherlock said as he walked, "He has an alibi. ”

Connie glared, "You know again?" ”

He glanced back: "He must have, otherwise what is the point of this performance." ”

Performance.

Connie pouted, "I don't think it's him anyway." ”

"Hmm. Not him. Sherlock nodded.

Connie's eyes lit up: "What about Alice?" ”

Sherlock looked at her for a long time before he spat out a "no" under her gaze.

Neither.

Connie looks at the sky, so brain-burning.

"Do you need to change the answer to the previous bet?" He asked suddenly.

Connie was stunned for a moment, remembering his words: "Why change, doesn't Darwin's actions just now explain it?" ”

A chuckle came out of Sherlock's throat as the taxi stopped.

"Really? But in my opinion, his words and deeds just now just verified the opposite of your answer. He dodged into the car.

Connie followed and grabbed him by the sleeve.

"Explain!"

"Don't ask me to guess."

"I'm stupid."

"Also, please tell me in clear and concise language."

"Because I'm stupid."

......Driver: Did he just meet the scene of a strange breakup that happened once in a thousand years?

Lori and Uncle?

Teen and paralyzed face!?

Sherlock: "......"

"Excuse me...... Please. Connie was so shameless that she was coquettish.

You can still take advantage of it at this age. It won't work in a few years......

“fucus。 Alice, who has an affair with Espo. Darwin, General Manager in charge of external business. Isn't that obvious enough? He seems to be taking the blame for Alice, but in reality he is just dissociating himself from the first step, and his actions and alibi will make the idiots completely clean him and the matter morally and legally. He opened the window.

"In addition, all his actions are too fast, as if they were arranged, and it seems to be a normal reaction, but in the face of a crime like murder, even if he is really innocent and has the heart to take the blame for Alice, he will not even hesitate at all - greed for life and fear of death, this is human instinct." He took a breath, "Besides, I only talked about Alice and Espo's affair, not accusing Alice of murder, so he took the initiative to admit the crime, as if he had already determined that Alice must be the murderer of Espo." Isn't it too strange for a person who likes her to have such a first reaction. ”

Connie suddenly, thought for a moment and nodded solemnly: "Indeed, if someone accuses the person I like of being a murderer, then my first reaction must be to run away, or resolutely deny it!" ”

Sherlock snorted.

"But I didn't expect it...... Sherlock, your EQ is so high, you even observe this reaction so carefully! Connie said adoringly.

Connie turned her head and looked at her faintly: "This has nothing to do with emotional intelligence, it's all in the book." ”

After a pause, he added: "Next year's book list can give you some appropriate additions, and you have a good grasp of basic logic." ”

Basic Logic.

Connie gave a glance at her face.

"......... "Basic your sister!"

It's a pity she doesn't have the guts.

"So what's next for this case?" She shifted the subject a little distractedly.

Sherlock glanced at her clearly: "Darwin is the entrance, and the person behind him is the mastermind behind Espoo's murder, as for the definite person...... Let Mycroft hack the central Burmese server to know, or stay put, I think the next charges, if nothing else, should be placed on the boy's father. ”

"If he didn't have an alibi."

Connie was a little puzzled: "Why not before that?" ”

Sherlock curled the corners of his mouth: "It's smartest to do nothing, after all, all flaws come from action." ”

Connie thought about the several cases that had come together, and no one had figured out a clue before Sherlock arrived, and she understood, after all, this kind of case usually had to be closed in the end.

Become a headless mystery.

The murderer was close at hand, and Connie was a little excited: "Solve this case, will you be able to find that girl?" ”

Sherlock didn't reply to her, and seemed to be looking out the window in a daze.

Connie pouted, made back to the other side of the window, the window door could not be opened, she was about to ask the driver, as soon as she looked up, she saw the driver's old and sweaty face in the rearview mirror, especially the forehead, sweat could not stop flowing down from both sides.

She tilted her head in confusion, is it so hot? 166 Reading Network
