“Oh，Jesus！ Is this true? It's unbelievable!! "Early this morning, William? Thompson sat at the table, looked at the newspaper in his left hand, and cried out.

The bread he was holding in his right hand had already fallen on the table, but he was completely unaware of it, and his eyes were just staring at the "London Daily" in front of him, scanning quickly and carefully.

"William, watch the way you look when you eat breakfast!" His father, Thompson Sr., frowned, looked at the bread on the table, then at his son, and scolded, as if he was a little annoyed by his son's rudeness at the table.

However, William didn't notice it at all, and after reading the report, he raised his head in shock, looked at his father, who frowned even tighter, and said, "Father, you can't believe what I just saw!" ”

Thompson Sr. said, "What do you see? ”

William was about to speak, but he changed his words and asked, "Father, do you think Sherlock Holmes exists?" ”

Old Thompson sneered, feeling that his son's question was really stupid, and said, "Sherlock Holmes is a perfect detective novel, and the plot descriptions in it are very detailed, as if the narrator Watson had experienced it himself. But a novel is a novel after all, and no matter how real a novel is, it is also fake. Sherlock Holmes is just a fictional character of Ye. William, don't confuse fiction with reality. ”

Although his father Thompson Sr. said this, it did not dispel William's suspicions at the moment.

There was still a shock in his eyes that had not yet had time to fade.

Handing the London Journal to his father, William asked rhetorically, "Why...... The background of one of Holmes's long stories and four short stories is so consistent with the political, economic, cultural and other social environment of our Britain at that time? It's like...... It's like...... Did Sherlock Holmes really ever exist? ”

……

In the past few days, the sales of "Sherlock Holmes" have been increasing day by day, and later, there have even been many bookstores across the country that are out of stock!

And what about its reputation?

Its reputation is even higher!

You know, in the past, most detective novels relied more or less on luck and coincidence when solving crimes, but what about Sherlock Holmes?

He doesn't rely on coincidence to solve cases!

For example, in the long "A Study of Scarlet Letters". He relied on some small details that ordinary people would not notice at all, and deduced many characteristics of criminals without any suspects!

Find the criminals in the middle of nowhere!

Holmes's reasoning is surprising, but plausible. The meticulous and rigorous are so meticulous that people can't help but be amazed after watching it, and a feeling of admiration arises spontaneously in their hearts!

After countless British people watched it, they all exclaimed the magic of the deduction!

And because of this. Whether it is sales or word of mouth, "Sherlock Holmes" has shocked the whole of Britain again and again!

Its edge even overpowered the "Judgment" that was praised by the Queen, after all, not many people can read this book.

Many high-ranking people in the literary world may appreciate "Trial" more, but among the people, it is definitely "Sherlock Holmes" that is more popular!

And on this day, the British have not yet come to their senses, and an article in the London Daily News put Sherlock Holmes on the cusp!

Was Sherlock Holmes a prototype of a historical figure, or did it really ever exist? 》

"In the past few days, the "Sherlock Holmes Detective Collection" by the talented Chinese writer Ye has been in the limelight in our Britain. The sales boom continued. I'm afraid it's not impossible to break the sales record.

Even, I dare assert that our UK first-day sales record won't last long.

Because, obviously, "Sherlock Holmes" does not show any signs of ending. The story of Sherlock Holmes and Watson has only just begun, and Ye has plans to continue to write. And when he came back with a book, it was probably when our first-day sales record in the UK was broken.

With that said, let me introduce myself first.

My name is Patrick? Richards, a history student at the University of London, is an avid history buff in his own right. And the most proficient and interesting is the history of our country.

Relying on my familiarity with British history, I was surprised to find out when I read Sherlock Holmes. The background of several cases in this book is very consistent with the political, economic, cultural and other social conditions in our Britain at that time!

With such a discovery, I immediately went to look up a lot of historical documents, and the results confirmed my suspicions!

Even, I could say that even if you told me that Sherlock Holmes was a historical source, I wouldn't have the slightest doubt. Because it was so relevant to the political and economic situation at the time! That was the social environment of 140 years ago! And there is not the slightest incongruity!

It's as if he really was in that part of history!

Reasoning is evidence-based, and I won't talk nonsense without evidence, so the evidence is as follows, and readers who are skeptical can check and verify it for themselves:

……………… (This is a large number of historical materials and their sources)

Finally, I would like to say, did Sherlock Holmes exist or not in our British history?

If so, is there a prototype of a historical figure, or is there really a Sherlock Holmes person?

If there is a historical figure archetype, then who is he? Is it recorded in the official history, or is it recorded in the wild history?

If there is such a person as Sherlock Holmes, then ...... Is there a great figure missing from our British history?

PS: You know, Holmes doesn't have such a good relationship with the police, and compared to him, the cops are not only stupid, but they also steal his work! Therefore, it is not impossible that after his death, in order to maintain the prestige of the police, the government will erase his existence. It is often difficult for people to know the full and true history.

The above represents only the reasonable suspicion of a history buff and has no other political purpose. ”

This history buff Patrick? Whether Richards really had this suspicion, or whether he wrote this article for the purpose of taking advantage of the opportunity to hype, I am afraid that no one but himself knows, but there is no doubt that his article caused a thousand waves with one stone and caused an uproar in Britain!

Where did Holmes go?!

Even, even Prince Harry, who was having breakfast with the queen, was stunned when he saw the article, and hurriedly picked up his mobile phone without waiting for the meal to finish eating, and called Ye Yu directly!

……

"Prince Harry, what's the matter?" It's still morning in the UK, but it's already afternoon in Huaxia at this moment, Ye Yu, who was preparing for the final in three days, picked up the phone and asked with some confusion.

You must know that because there is a 7-hour time difference between the two countries, in order to avoid disturbing each other at an inappropriate time, the two usually communicate by email and rarely make phone calls.

But now......

Ye Yu did a little mental calculation, and knew that it was only 8 o'clock in the morning in London at this time, and it was time to eat breakfast.

Prince Harry called at this time, which couldn't help but make him a little confused and surprised.
