The beginning of the first part of "Sherlock Holmes" is narrated from Watson's first-person perspective.

The concise introduction makes the image of "me" jump on the page.

Watson, a military doctor, returned to England from his wounds to find a place to live in a less luxurious and inexpensive place, so Watson found Sherlock Holmes to share a house.

"That's ...... so"

"Not a military medical detective, I say......"

"This is the protagonist of this one, Sherlock Holmes, look forward to it!"

"It feels like it's a series of Ben Ge reasoning!"

……

The first readers who got "Sherlock Holmes" were immediately immersed in the book.

And compared to the slow early stage of "Harry Potter", "Sherlock Holmes" can be said to have completely attracted the attention of readers, and in the first chapter, when Watson and Sherlock Holmes first met, readers were shocked.

"I can see that you have been to Afghanistan. ”】

On the first meeting of Watson, Holmes said this, which immediately stunned the readers!

It's just that Sherlock Holmes didn't explain much at this time, just discussed with Watson about experiments on blood, and in this description, he was actually building characters, from the tone of speech to the familiarity with chemical knowledge.

Speaking of which, in the evaluation of his previous life, Sherlock Holmes was a complete geek, with a very broad range of knowledge, but also narrow, as if he had a reserve specifically for fighting crime.

I know almost nothing about literature, philosophy, astronomy, and political science.

However, he has a deep knowledge of chemistry, anatomy, and even geology needed to fight crime.

"221 Baker Street."

Li Liyue muttered.

This is the residence of Watson and Sherlock Holmes, the same one that any Sherlock Holmes fan from a past life remembers!

The pace of the plot is fast, several sentences have passed, and Watson and Holmes have learned a little more about each other, in Watson's point of view, Sherlock Holmes is quiet, has a very regular lifestyle, is extremely enthusiastic about some aspects of research work, and is extremely knowledgeable in some rare and strange fields of knowledge!

"Is it such a detective image?"

The image of the detective varies from work to work, but there is no doubt that the character of Sherlock Holmes is very charming from the point of view of the description.

Constant hard work to gain more knowledge.

"The case is coming!"

"Suspenseful reasoning, that's the point."

"I didn't expect the old thief to really be able to write his own reasoning, this difficulty is very high!"

"Don't question the ...... old thief"

Next, the plot is not what readers expected, and the case has arrived!

The tragedy on Lauriston Garden Street!

Just last night, there was a homicide in a room on Garden Street in Lauriston, the deceased was a Mizhou, the body was neatly dressed, the bag contained a business card, there was no sign of robbery, and no evidence was found to explain the cause of death.

THE ONLY CLUE IS A WEDDING RING THAT HAS BEEN ROLLED DOWN FROM THE DECEASED'S BODY, AND THE WORD RACHE "REVENGE" WRITTEN IN BLOOD ON THE WALL.

Although there were several blood stains in the house, there were no wounds on the deceased's body.

This is a letter from a detective from the National Police Agency inviting Sherlock Holmes to investigate!

And this "Study of Blood Letters" officially kicked off.

……

"! Set up the case so awesomely? ”

"It's still the detectives of this era, and now criminal detectives and nineteenth-century detectives are not the same thing at all!"

"It's Anglican, but I look smoother than I did in Harry Potter!"

The audience sighed with emotion, and the excitement on their faces became more and more intense.

Modern criminal investigation technology is not unadvanced, so advanced that computer algorithms can find a person's movement trajectory from a large number of surveillance according to a person's clothes or walking posture.

Therefore, modern suspense writers often do not put the story in the modern era of advanced criminal investigation technology, because they will lose a lot of suspense and plot twists.

Even "The Long Night" and "Undocumented Crime" are all set 20 years ago.

Helpless policeman, turn to Sherlock Holmes for help.

Such a plot mode makes readers instantly have a sense of substitution!

And in the next story, all Kyushu readers will follow Sherlock Holmes to solve this confusing case with keen observation, rich scientific knowledge, meticulous logical reasoning, and superhuman courage and wisdom.

After examining the victim's body, Holmes concluded that the victim had been poisoned!

After on-site observation, research on Scarlet Letters, and comprehensive analysis of the situation, Sherlock Holmes seemed to be more confident at this moment......

……

"This is ......"

"It feels like a start."

Li Liyue is a professional suspense writer, so it can be seen that this "Study of Blood Letters" is not complicated in terms of plot or case setting.

It's just that the character of the old thief is powerful, which really makes other authors salivate!

This "Study of Scarlet Letters" is not outstanding in the entire series of "Sherlock Holmes", including the evaluation of major book websites in the previous life, the score is not high.

But what is significant is that this work is the first case of "Sherlock Holmes"!

And starting from the second part of the work "Four Signatures", it is the time to really become famous.

……

"It's that simple?"

"It's so ingenious...... Hiss ......"

"What do you mean, old thief?"

In order to solve the case, Sherlock Holmes published a revelation of lost and found in the newspaper, and the murderer disguised himself as an old lady and took the ring!

Through this ruse, Holmes concluded that the criminal was proficient in disguise and had accomplices.

Later, after a series of reasoning and research, the murderer Hope was determined!

The quick solution to the case caught readers off guard!

But I was caught off guard, not because I was disappointed with the whole case, but because I was curious!

With the exception of Sherlock Holmes, all the readers, including the characters in the book, were kept in the dark.

Criminals suddenly caught?

How to kill someone?

Why kill people?

How exactly did Holmes find out who the criminal was?

The content of 100,000 words is not complicated, but it is more concise than the previous works.

The content of the second half is the classic old thief style of writing, with narratives, flashbacks and interludes, telling the whole story and letting the readers' hanging hearts slowly stretch.

Beginning with the experience of the prisoner Hope in the state of rice as a young man, it tells the story of the murder of Hope's beloved lover and his father, and how Hope followed the enemy all the way to London and carried out revenge to be captured.

In this narration, readers are actually lamenting the tragedy of the murderer Hope.

The reason why the murderer was caught so easily was because Hope was terminally ill, life and death had long been put on the line, and when he was arrested, he had a smile on his face, and until he died in prison, he had a smile.

From the reader's intuitive feeling, the whole work cleverly combines reasoning and story, although the focus is not on the entire reasoning process, but there is still no shortage of wonderful works!

It is precisely because of this that many readers have very complex emotions when they finish reading "A Study of Scarlet Letters".
