[Comprehensive British and American] Einstein's male god

Chapter 48 Truth

After walking out of Merlin Co., Ltd., Sherlock called a taxi (Taxi).After getting in the car, after a while, Winnie said to Sherlock: "The octopus just now looks a little strange."

Small in size, smooth in body surface, protruding eyes, and blue fluorescent spots on the body.

"That's a blue-striped octopus." Sherlock lowered his head, pressed his phone, and answered Winnie, decisively using two things at once.

"The name blue-striped octopus is a bit familiar." Winnie remembered which book she seemed to have seen this name in.

While Winnie was trying to find the memory of the blue-striped octopus in her head, Sherlock was also having a text message conversation with Mycroft.

For a long time, Mycroft knew what Sherlock was doing outside, and Sigson was the same. Even though Sigson was very dissatisfied with this, he couldn't make Sherlock obedient. The only thing he could do was to send someone to Following Sherlock is protection on the one hand and surveillance on the other.However, almost every time, Sherlock was able to get rid of the bodyguards.

In this regard, Mycroft told the bodyguards that they would do their best.

To a certain extent, Mycroft is quite conniving with Sherlock. Just like this time, Sherlock asked him to help investigate something related to Orlando's death. He didn't refuse, even though he knew Siegson would not like it. But who called him a brother.

Sherlock has always known that McCoff is very quick and neat when doing things, so he was not surprised when McCoff sent the information he needed in just 10 minutes.

Winnie glanced at Sherlock who had just finished reading the text message, and asked, "Is there anyone else we want to see?"

"Eddie." Sherlock retracted the phone and said meaningfully.

"Sherlock, is the blue octopus poisonous?" Winnie thought for a while, and said the memory she finally remembered.

"I thought you would remember earlier." Sherlock raised his eyebrows.

"I'm not a genius, and I don't have the ability to have a photographic memory." Winnie glanced at Sherlock, and said seriously that she was just an ordinary person, and her memory was naturally not as good as that of a genius.

After Alison learned that Sherlock was going to talk to Eddie, she refused without thinking about it, because Eddie was afraid of strangers.Winnie already knew that according to Sherlock's personality, she would not give up easily, so it was no surprise that Sherlock suggested that Alison accompany Eddie to start a conversation.

Alison thought about it, and finally agreed to Sherlock reluctantly, picked an unused reception room, and brought Eddie.

As usual, Winnie sat next to Sherlock, and she pushed up her glasses.

Sherlock turned to look at her and simply said, "Tea?"

Winnie nodded, watching Sherlock pour tea for her, she felt weird in her heart, because Sherlock seldom did it by himself, usually either by herself or by a servant.

"It's a bit hot." Sherlock held the black tea in his hand, and said while looking at Winnie, his tone was slightly subtle.

When Winnie stretched out her hand and was about to take the black tea, Sherlock let go of it suddenly, and the hot black tea spilled on her body immediately, but the miracle is that the hot black tea only stained her clothes and didn't touch her body. skin.

"Oh, I'm sorry, did you get burned?" Sherlock stood up in a sudden reaction, blocking Alison's gaze, and mouthed to Winnie—taking a picture of the picture in the sketchbook.

Winnie paused, and suddenly a mobile phone was secretly stuffed in her hand.

Only then did she realize that Sherlock did it on purpose, to get her to sneak into Eddie's room.

"I need to call someone..." Before Alison finished speaking, Winnie shook her head, stuffed her phone back into her skirt pocket and said, "No, I'm fine."

"It's fine, but your clothes..." Alison shifted her gaze to Winnie's wet white skirt.

"I'll just go up and change it."

Alison nodded without the slightest doubt. Eddie, who had been paying attention silently, lowered his head again after seeing Winnie's gaze.

Withdrawing her gaze, Winnie glanced at the calm Sherlock, then turned around and walked out of the room.

After leaving, Winnie evaded the servants' eyes and ears, and finally managed to come to the door of Eddie's room. She looked around to make sure that no one had pulled out the backup wand from her body. It was a second-hand wand, not her original wand. , although it was not as smooth as her eleven-inch willow wand when using it, it was not bad.

Eddie's room doesn't have too many decorations and furnishings, everything is very simple, bed, desk, bookcase...

Winnie took a visual inspection of the whole room, but couldn't find Eddie's picture book, so she looked again, this time carefully.

Sure enough, she soon discovered that there seemed to be a small cabinet under the desk, and she reached out to pull it, but it turned out to be locked.

Winnie pointed her wand at the lock and uttered an incantation: "Alahoh hole opens."

After opening the cabinet, Winnie reached out and was about to pick up the picture book when she suddenly remembered Eddie, but after she remembered Sherlock's words again, she decided to take a picture of the picture.

Putting the drawing book on the desk, she took out the mobile phone Sherlock gave her with one hand, and opened the drawing book with the other hand, but she didn't expect that when she opened it, she saw a very shocking picture.

After Winnie leaves, Sherlock just casually asks Eddie and Alison if anything in particular happened before they killed themselves in Orlando.

"I don't know. Orlando is sometimes so busy that he sleeps directly in the study. He doesn't like to be disturbed during his work. Plus Eddie had a nightmare and couldn't sleep that night, so I stayed in the study that night. His room is with him." Mentioning this, Alison had a look of pain and guilt on her face, as if she felt pain and guilt for not discovering Orlando's wrong path earlier.

Sherlock glanced at Eddie who had kept his head down, and there was no emotion in his gray eyes.

"By the way, I heard that Ma'am, you have a relative, which seems to be called..." Sherlock noticed that Alison's expression froze for a moment.

"Sophie." Alison answered for Sherlock, but the tone felt unnatural.

"That's right!"

"She is my cousin's daughter." Alison seemed to be very good at hiding her emotions. She had a slightly stiff expression just now, but now she recovered and was very calm. "My cousin asked me to take care of her before she died."

"By the way, Ma'am, I don't know if you have heard a very interesting rumor. That Miss Sophie claimed that she heard you and Orlando having a dispute that night." Sherlock said slowly, as if he was talking about the most common thing. But the same thing.

However, compared to Alison's stupefied, Eddie's reaction was a bit unexpected. He suddenly raised his head and looked at Sherlock with a look of panic. Then, his body trembled slightly, as if he was afraid of something. .

After regaining her senses, Alison quickly noticed Eddie's situation, her face sank, and she looked a little angry. She hugged Eddie and blocked Sherlock's sight: "I don't know Where did you hear it from, but everyone knows that Sophie is a serious alcoholic, and what an alcoholic/alcoholic/brained person says, most people with brains will know that it is not credible."

Sherlock didn't speak, but just raised his eyebrows, looking at the two mother and child in front of him, in fact, he had already got the answer he wanted.

"Eddie is a little uncomfortable. This is the end of this conversation." Alison's tone was very strong, and there was no chance for anyone to refuse. If it was changed to a normal situation, Sherlock didn't care much, but Wen Ni hasn't come back yet, which means he still needs to delay.

Seeing that Alison had already pulled Eddie to the door, Sherlock stepped forward nimbly and stood in front of the two: "Wait a minute."

"What are you doing?" Alison frowned dissatisfiedly, looking at Sherlock with a slightly defensive look.

"I just want to explain what I just said." Sherlock evoked a sincere, harmless smile, "I didn't mean it."

Alison stared at Sherlock for a few seconds, and could only say that either Sherlock's acting skills were too good, or it was true as he said, but no matter which was the truth, Alison didn't want to stay any longer at the moment, so she had to deal with it casually Said: "I accept your explanation."

I thought that after saying this, the other party would let her go, but the fact is that the two of you stared at each other for a long time, until there was a knock on the door, and Sherlock made a move and gave way.

After completing the task given by Sherlock, Winnie cleaned up her clothes and walked to Sherlock's place. After arriving at the destination, she knocked on the door before pushing in.

"Are you finished talking?" Winnie first glanced at Alison and Eddie standing at the door, and then looked at Sherlock.

Sherlock didn't speak, his gray eyes fell on Winnie's body, and those eyes were a little subtle.

Winnie felt that Sherlock was weird. Ever since Alison and Eddie left, she had been silent, as if she was thinking about something, until she returned to the room and just sat down on the sofa, Sherlock said lightly. Said: "It seems that you like this dress very much."

Winnie paused for a moment, unable to turn her head around, until she met Sherlock's pair of gray eyes and looked at the meaningful gaze in her eyes, she remembered that she didn't change into another dress just now, but just cleaned it up. new.

The magic was so convenient, and her thoughts at that time were all trapped in the pictures she saw, so she didn't think too much, and directly used magic to solve the stain on the skirt.

Sherlock is very smart, he can't hide many things from him, he must have seen that the skirt on her is the same one just now, but how can she get away with it?

Forget it all?

This is a very convenient and quick method, but she won't.

Sherlock looked at the distressed look on Winnie's face. It seemed that he was right. That skirt was the one he stained. It is impossible to wash and dry the dress in such a short time, minus the time it took to find the picture book and take pictures.

Just when Winnie was thinking about how to get away with it, Sherlock suddenly changed the subject: "Have the photos been taken yet?"

Winnie, who couldn't keep up with Sherlock's savings, paused, then nodded blankly.

Sherlock held out his hand to Winnie, meaning to give him the phone.

After handing the mobile phone to Sherlock, Winnie watched the other party press the mobile phone neatly, and with each photo after another, the curvature of the corner of the mouth became more and more profound.

Winnie stared at Sherlock silently, and it took a long time to hear Sherlock's deep voice: "I know who the prisoner is."

"Look at it first." As soon as Sherlock finished speaking, he pressed out the information obtained from Mycroft and stuffed it into Winnie's hands.

Winnie looked at the content on the phone very seriously, and frowned slightly.

On it was the insurance information of Kunis and Sam. The insurance amount of the two was suddenly increased. Then she looked at the series of numbers and said she couldn't understand.

Further down is Orlando's autopsy report. Compared with the first one, this time it is obviously more professional, and each item is very detailed. For example, the strangle marks on Orlando's neck were caused after death. The direct cause of death was poisoning, and a very small strand of hair was found on Orlando's body. After examination, it was found that it was a group of genes very similar to his...

"Eddie." Winnie said a name that even she didn't believe. "He was there when Orlando died."

On Orlando's body, it was found that the young hair belonged to Eddie, and it can be seen from Eddie's picture book that he doesn't like Orlando because there are many kinds of death pictures of Orlando in it.

"That's right, and he's not the only one present." Sherlock sat across from Winnie, crossed his legs, and said in a lazy tone.

"Alison." Winnie remembered Sophie's words. Alison and Orlando had a dispute that night.

"That's right, and before we catch the real prisoner, we need to do one thing." Sherlock put his hand on his forehead and said absently, as if his thoughts had drifted to another place.

"What's the matter?" Winnie asked slightly puzzled.

What Sherlock said, Winnie soon found out the next morning, was to bring everyone together.

At this moment, everyone is nestled in the front hall, looking at each other, waiting for Sherlock to speak.

Regarding Sherlock's claim that the murderer was found, the other three detectives expressed doubts. The reason is that until now, they have so few clues that they can't locate a murderer, but Sherlock suddenly said that he had found the murderer. Naturally, they couldn't trust a Sherlock who was younger than them.

Sherlock looked around at the crowd, and the three detectives sitting together had expressions of doubt and disdain on their faces.Alison and Eddie sat together, Eddie lowered his head, unable to see his expression clearly, while Alison looked at the front blankly.

In contrast, Sam and Kunis looked much calmer, enjoying the black tea in their hands very gracefully.

"You called us and said you found the murderer, but where is the murderer?" Dan.Fox sneered, and from the tone of his voice, he knew he was looking for trouble.

Sherlock was not irritated at all, he just raised his eyebrows and said flatly: "The murderer is here."

All of them showed a blank expression in unison, subconsciously looking at me and I looking at you, as if to say who is the prisoner.

"Because the so-called autopsy report at the beginning was too unsightly, so I found another person to re-examine, and from the report, Orlando died of tetrodotoxin, and the strangulation marks on his neck were posthumous. Caused." As soon as Sherlock said this, everyone was stunned, especially the three detectives, because none of them thought that Sherlock could find someone to re-examine, which is not something ordinary people can do.

"The report also mentioned one thing, that is, a very young strand of hair was found on Orlando's body, and after inspection, it was found that it was a hair strand with similar genes to him."

Alison shook abruptly, and Eddie's head on the side dropped even lower, his hands clenched into fists and placed on his knees.

"I knew you were the murderer!" Dan.Fox pointed at Eddie excitedly, "I saw the pictures in your sketchbook that day, they were all Orlando's different death patterns!"

Jamie and Ben stared in disbelief at the 12-year-old boy.

"No! It's not like that!" Alison said excitedly. She stretched out her arms and hugged Eddie, almost exhausting all her strength, fearing that if she was not careful, she would lose Eddie.

"Dan, that's just a 12-year-old boy, how could it be..." Jamie was interrupted by Sherlock before he finished speaking.

"You hate your father, don't you?" Sherlock said flatly, looking at Eddie.

Eddie shivered slightly, and Alison immediately retorted, "No way! Eddie is a good boy, he..."

"You're right, I do hate him." Eddie said in a trembling voice, interrupting Alison's attempt to protect him.

"No!" Alison made a desperate voice.

"He's a demon, and it's because of him that my mother has so many bruises, and he doesn't treat me like a son at all!" Eddie raised his head, and his eyes suddenly burst into the famous emotion of hatred.

"Stop, Eddie, stop talking."

"That night, I woke up from a nightmare and found that my mother was gone, so I went out to look for her. When I passed my father's study, I heard the sound of arguing inside. I pushed open the door, separated by a seam. Looking inside, the man not only hit his mother, but also grabbed her neck! He wanted to kill her! How could he do this!" Eddie not only his voice, but also his body trembling, obviously caught in the moment The memory, remembered the excitement at that time.

"So you killed him?" Ben said, frowning, but feeling weird again when he finished.

"No, Eddie didn't do it on purpose, he just wanted to save me from Orlando, he just wanted to pull Orlando away!" I remembered that Eddie suddenly jumped on Orlando's body and circled Orlando's neck from behind He stopped and pulled back hard, Eddie just wanted Orlando to let go, but he didn't expect that Orlando died after that.

At that time, she was stunned, and Eddie was the same, her brain was hot, thinking that Eddie accidentally killed Orlando, so she had to use the thick/rope that was placed in Orlando's room at some time as a cover, and made Orlando commit suicide the scene.
