[Comprehensive British and American] The bear child of the detective's family
Chapter 68 Another Killed
Sherlock is currently taking the exam for an intern at the Barts Hospital. As the most "layman" among the preparatory interns, Sherlock is actually the least favored by his teacher, if not for his old friend Reis For the sake of Trade, he would never give this kid a chance this time.
The teacher didn't appreciate Sherlock, and Sherlock himself was sneaking away, and all his thoughts were on the Ripper imitator.Here the train of thought was interrupted by a girl who was also an intern next to her. Sherlock expressed his thoughts objectively. He could see that the girl wanted to strike up a conversation with him, but Sherlock said that he was not interested.
Jasmine Amber was a little embarrassed. She just fell in love with this person standing next to her at first sight. Seeing his confident appearance, Jasmine wanted to chat with him to strengthen her courage. Who knew that this person was called Sherlock? ·Holmes's mouth is a bit bad, Jasmine lowered her head and waited for the question obediently.
When all the problems are strengthened by one person, probably both teachers and interns feel that they will not be able to get better.The Holmes brothers are different from others. They can record a lot of things. According to them, that place is called the thinking hall. Like Sherlock's thinking hall, as long as it is useful, it will be recorded in it.
Not only did he answer all the questions, he was quick to answer them.
The teacher looked at Sherlock and then at the document in which he memorized the test questions, he was stunned. He even had a feeling that he had given the answers to Lestrade while sleepwalking. At this moment, Sherlock stood up, He adjusted his coat and showed a hypocritical smirk, "Are there any other questions? Did I pass the test?"
"Yes, it is."
Sherlock raised his eyebrows, he raised his foot and walked towards the door, and when he passed the poor teacher, he nodded, showing a sense of arrogance.
Jasmine Amber looked at Sherlock leaving with envy in her heart. She was envious of his ability. She was extremely unconfident about herself. After all, Jasmine was not a top student in school, but it was probably Sherlock who gave him the opportunity. After giving her some confidence, Jasmine clenched her fists tightly, no matter whether she would be selected or not, she still wanted to challenge herself once.
Of course, Sherlock would not know that he had affected the girl next to him who wanted to "talk up" him just now. After he came out of that room, he began to look for Lestrade. He was very excited now. Not only did he get the intern's The position has also successfully obtained the right to move freely. If that teacher wants to go back on his word, Sherlock will definitely rush to his office and use his IQ to crush him again.
It was very easy to find Lestrade. Sherlock disguised himself as an agent of Scotland Yard and asked all the way. It took less than 15 minutes to find Lestrade's location. Sherlock has been here twice. The case he knew about Lestrade, and the last time he followed Lestrade and Hannibal to see the case of corpses and dolls.
When Sherlock came, Lestrade was standing aside waiting for the results of the autopsy. When Sherlock came in, he surprised him. He grabbed Sherlock's arm and went out under Anderson's strange eyes. , Sherlock is very obedient, after all, following Lestrade has meat to eat, if he doesn't pretend to be good, who knows if this stubborn detective will let himself participate in the case.
"What the hell? Why did you come here, Sherlock?!"
"You can't pass me out on such an interesting case as the Inspector, and I've passed my test and am now an intern at Barts Hospital."
Lestrade had already guessed the result later, if Sherlock couldn't be an intern, probably other students could be kicked out.
"Okay, congratulations on passing, but this is my case Sherlock, and please don't show your excitement, not everyone has a high-functioning sociopath like you, if you don't want to be beaten, just be good Yes, Okay?"
"I listen to you, Inspector."
If you are not obedient, there will be no case. Sherlock is very clear, isn't it just obedient? It's not difficult.
"Okay, wait until you get in and don't talk obediently."
Sherlock made a zip movement, promising to keep his mouth shut.
This is the third time for Anderson to see Sherlock. He still has a fresh memory of Sherlock. First of all, Sherlock's outstanding appearance can be remembered by people. Secondly, he is more arrogant. The last time he called them both For... stupid, in the end, Anderson remembered that this man was Lestrade's younger brother, and he really wanted to ask Lestrade why your family raised such a different child.
Because Anderson had never seen the brats of the Lestrade family, of course he would not know that the brats were even more distinctive.
Anderson didn't say anything, just studied and examined the body of the second victim, Anna Louise, again.Before Sherlock came, Lestrade raised a question of his own, why there were no other traces of Anna's body except for the corpse spots. According to common sense, if the murderer injected the potion from the front or a sneak attack, the victim would Those who resist, want to subdue the victim in the process of resistance, they will definitely grab her body or clothes, of course, in Lestrade's vision, the former is more likely.
However, if a certain part of the body was grabbed and the drug injected into it forcibly, then the corpse would not show scars at that time, and it should appear after a period of time. Now there are no other traces on Anna's body except corpse spots. Lestrade suspected that the drug might have been injected after Anna's death, in order to confuse their hearing and imitate the case more imaginatively.
"Boss, after the re-autopsy, it can be confirmed that the stabilizer was injected later. According to the proportion of stabilizer in Miss Anna Louise's blood, it is lower than that of a normal living body, which proves that the absorption of the blood becomes slow after the blood flow stops. .”
Anderson brought the new autopsy report to Lestrade. Lestrade fell silent looking at the data, but Sherlock, who had been peeping, started to work. After the report came out, he knew what Lestrade suspected before. So, what is the killer injecting after death to cover up?It can't be to make the case more imaginative, he must have other purposes.
"What purpose are you suspecting the murderer?"
"Almost, I thought the murderer should be someone Ms. Paula Wells knew, but this was just a guess. After Miss Anna Louise was murdered, I doubted it even more, but the two people's networks have no intersection. , and it is a coincidence that some people speculate that the murderer is someone he knows based on the stabilizer.” Lestrade shrugged and continued: “But now that this data comes out, we don’t have to doubt it. Diluted our sight and hearing, the murderer is not only someone who the two victims knew, but also someone worthy of Miss Anna's trust."
Sherlock nodded. Sure enough, Lestrade was the only person in Scotland Yard who was not a goldfish. His IQ was still up to standard. At least he could tell that the murderer was an acquaintance.
"But the problem still arises here. Although Miss Paula Wells has the habit of keeping a diary, we don't know Miss Anna Louise's social circle, and the number of overlapping people is also uncertain."
In the end, the matter still happened in the social circle, Sherlock touched his chin, "The murderer must be someone near the East End of London, Inspector, you once said that all the relevant videos of the time of this night's crime were lost, then please go down with your stupid hands." Find out whether the vehicles on the relevant roads leaving and entering the Eastern District overlap within two hours before and after the incident."
Lestrade suddenly realized when he heard Sherlock's words, why didn't they expect that the clue of the East End was also suspicious, because the video was destroyed, they were more suspicious that the murderer committed the crime by driving, but if there was a movement that confused them, The people behind the killer did it on purpose to get them to look away from the area.
The most dangerous place is the safest place, isn't it?
Lestrade called Donovan. Donovan was the number one detective under Lestrade and the second only to Lestrade in the homicide squad. The most important thing was Lestrade. I have a lot of trust in her.
"Donovan, I need you to check something for me."
"Boss, I just wanted to find you. The Ripper impersonated the criminal, and it was still in the East End of London."
No one would have thought that the murderer broke the routine and shortened the time for committing the crime. Lestrade's face changed when he heard the case, and he asked sharply, "What's the situation?"
"I just received a report that a woman died tragically in her home. Her identity has been initially confirmed. Alice Senior, 25 years old, is a professional prostitute."
It happened so suddenly, and this time Jack the Ripper came to commit the crime, which made Lestrade feel even more shocked. Sherlock has been leaning aside and listening to the phone, his eyes lit up when he heard that there was a case Come to think of it, he knew about the previous cases from newspapers and Lestrade's few words, and he had never seen them at the scene. He didn't know many things, but now he can go and see the real scene. .
"I'll go there right away. By the way, you ask someone to call out the video of leaving the scene two hours before and after the two incidents to see if the same vehicle passed by, or the surveillance camera didn't capture the same person."
Lestrade made inferences, not only the same car, but more likely the same person, what if the murderer found a place to dispose of everything.
"Okay, I'll do it right away."
Now Lestrade has to rush to the scene immediately. To be honest, he is in a bad mood now. The murderer has begun to play cards not according to common sense. The real Jack the Ripper murdered indoors is the fifth case, and the victim is also A 25-year-old young woman.
Lestrade fell into thinking, why did he abandon the fourth serial crime and choose to directly enter the fifth?Is it because the girls are starting to protect themselves?
"Boss, why did you bring him too?"
While Lestrade was thinking, Anderson, who was sitting in the back seat, spoke. As the forensic doctor of this case, he must also be present. It happened that Lestrade took Anderson along with him when he was in Butts Hospital. This is normal. But what he wondered was why he was taking Sherlock Holmes with him.
Sherlock, who was sitting in the co-pilot, bared his teeth and smiled like you bit me.
Lestrade glanced at Sherlock and said helplessly, "Maybe we need him, and Sherlock will take back your smirk."
What Lestrade wants most now is to solve the case, not because of the pressure from above or wanting to win credit, he just doesn't want to see any dead people appear again.So he put his hope on Sherlock, he believed that Sherlock would not let him down.
"Inspector, have you decided to involve me?"
"Yes, it's still the request, follow my command."
The bear boy Sherlock just let go. As the temporary guardian, Lestrade was worried that he would get into some trouble, maybe encounter some danger, so he made three chapters and said one sentence three times. He asked Sherlock to listen to his own words. Let him do whatever he wants.
Lestrade arrived at the designated street, which had been blocked by Scotland Yard. There were many onlookers and even shadows of reporters. Their speed exceeded Lestrade's imagination. Except for them, Lestrade Trade also saw a familiar figure in the crowd of onlookers, that good doctor. He recalled that it seemed that the rented house of this good man was also here.
"Boss, you're here."
Donovan's speed is much faster than Lestrade's. Although she hasn't seen the scene yet, she has already asked some relevant information about the body finder. Not only is this apartment very old, but the people living in it are relatively In confusion, Donovan, a neighbor near Alice Senior, also inquired, and they found nothing unusual.
But they also provided a clue, probably because Alice Senior was still relatively young, so she was very courageous. After the police issued a warning, she still brought different men home. In her words, the Ripper How could Jack find her.
who knows……
Lestrade listened to Donovan talking about these things while walking up, and Sherlock followed behind him. Although Donovan complained a little, he suppressed it for Lestrade's sake. On the fourth floor, to be honest, if it wasn't for her blood flowing out of the room, no one would have found out that Alice Senior had been killed.
Compared with the previous two victims, this Alice Senior looked even more miserable. Not only the tendons in her hands and feet were cut off, but her body was also cut into disfigurement, just like Jack the Ripper's last death Like the first victim, her uterus was completely removed, her nose and breasts were all cut off, there was a knife mark on her face, her intestines were dragged out and placed on her shoulders, and her trachea was separated like the first The bones are almost visible as in every victim.
The room was full of blood. She didn't lie on the bed but threw it on the ground like an old doll, so the blood flowed out.
There was no place to set foot in the room. Lestrade stood at the door and watched the tragedy and shook his head silently. Sherlock's expression was very natural.
Another imitation crime, Sherlock just checked that the window is closed and the door is intact, so excluding burglary, there is a 90.00% possibility that the victim, Miss Alice Senior, opened it for the murderer herself, according to Judging from the blood clotting time of the victim, she was killed in the early morning, and because she lived in a relatively remote location, she was discovered relatively later.
But besides an acquaintance opening the door, there is also the possibility that Alice Senior was a guest. Like the first victim suspected by the police, the murderer was disguised as a guest, which just fits the neighbors said recently Alice Senior is very bold in bringing a man home.
"Do you have any ideas?"
"I need to go in and have a look. By the way, ask your people to leave the inspector."
Sherlock actually doesn't like being disturbed when he is thinking. Lestrade was silent for a while and waved to the forensic doctor and Donovan, "Come in after ten minutes, and ask Alice West Did Miss Neil go out, and did the neighbors hear any strange noises, or were there any witnesses."
"Boss, he entered the scene as an outsider..."
"Go, I'll take care of something."
Donovan couldn't object to Lestrade's words, but in her opinion, it was inappropriate for an outsider to enter the scene and intervene in their case. This was a way of denying their ability.
It’s just that Donovan doesn’t want outsiders to intervene in any kind of case. This is where Lestrade is different from them, and it is one of the reasons why Sherlock will stick to Lestrade, because he is so special. A person who thinks very little of his dignity and honor, since he can't solve this case and Sherlock can help, why not go to him.
As for the face of Scotland Yard and the dignity of the inspector, in Lestrade's opinion, that's fart, human life is more important than anything else!
Sherlock put on gloves and shoe covers and entered the scene, and Lestrade followed his footsteps. The first thing Sherlock looked at was the victim's body. He was comparing the victim with the last one of Jack the Ripper. A victim's similarity between the two.There was an inconspicuous needle-pocket on Alice Senior's neck, which coincided with the strangle marks on the neck of the last victim.The nose and the breasts were cut off, which is the same, but there are differences, the 1888 victim did not have the uterus removed and the intestines pulled out, and the dead man's trachea was cut open. different.
Sherlock glanced at the victim's face, the lipstick on the lips was a little less, he compared his hand up, sure that the victim should have wanted to scream when the killer injected, but he covered it The mouth was rubbed off a lot.
This shows that the murderer was familiar with the building and was worried that someone would hear the screams coming up.
Although the victim was naked, there were no hickey marks or other ambiguous marks on her body, which meant that the murderer was less likely to be a prostitute. down.
He stood up and looked around. There was no trace of moving anything in this house. There was a lot of blood on the head of the bed. According to the angle of the blood spray, the victim Alice Senior was caught by the murderer on the back of the bed. The hair cut off the trachea from the back, so the blood sprayed to the head of the bed and the wall above the bed, but there was no blood on the back.
Sherlock walked to the window. According to the amount of blood, the murderer could not have come out clean. He would definitely be stained with blood. Originally, Sherlock doubted whether the murderer would leave the window. He pushed the window hard and it opened up.Sherlock stretched out his head to have a look, and Lestrade also came over, "Do you think the murderer left from here?"
"Yes, you can doubt it for the time being."
Lestrade saw a red fingerprint on the white edge of the bed, and on the window something had been bound.
"The murderer flew over the wall in the middle of the night?"
"According to the time, it should be the darkest time, but the street lights in the city of London and last night was not cloudy and happened to be a full moon, the murderer got the corresponding light, so it is not difficult to leave. According to the shoe prints It is said that the murderer went down bit by bit by grabbing a rope or something, our victim lived on the fourth floor, and there was no protective window, so it was a breeze to leave."
Sherlock pointed to the distance that could be seen below, and made two movements. According to the footprints, this is how the murderer went down.
When she just came in, Sherlock really thought that the murderer left through the gate. After all, the windows were closed, but this was actually just a disguise. The murderer thought he had confused the police, but in fact he also exposed himself.
"It seems that our murderer is extremely clever, but his cleverness was misunderstood by his cleverness. Inspector, you can ask if anyone saw someone going out near the alley at one o'clock in the morning."
Sherlock took off his gloves, "And..." He saw the bedside table, where there were some medicines, he walked up to pick up the medicines and took a look, "It seems that our victim is still sick , the medicine was not opened, maybe we can suspect that the murderer is the person who delivered the medicine to her, the customer who helped bring the medicine, or someone else."
Lestrade glanced at the scene again and said, "I'm going to ask if there are any witnesses now, do you want to go with me?"
"of course."
Judging from the time of the victim's death, there is a certain possibility that someone will see outsiders coming in through the gate. With the footprints that can be collected, they are one step closer to the murderer.
The most regrettable thing is that the murderer probably committed the crime with gloves on. Although there were marks, no fingerprints were left behind.
Lestrade went downstairs, he asked Anderson to start the autopsy, Donovan stepped forward and whispered next to Lestrade: "Boss, someone said that they saw a strange man entering this building last night. Lou, at 11:30."
"Who? Who saw it?"
Sherlock also raised his eyebrows, thinking that there were actually witnesses.
"The one we investigated before, that Dr. Tommy Andrew."
The teacher didn't appreciate Sherlock, and Sherlock himself was sneaking away, and all his thoughts were on the Ripper imitator.Here the train of thought was interrupted by a girl who was also an intern next to her. Sherlock expressed his thoughts objectively. He could see that the girl wanted to strike up a conversation with him, but Sherlock said that he was not interested.
Jasmine Amber was a little embarrassed. She just fell in love with this person standing next to her at first sight. Seeing his confident appearance, Jasmine wanted to chat with him to strengthen her courage. Who knew that this person was called Sherlock? ·Holmes's mouth is a bit bad, Jasmine lowered her head and waited for the question obediently.
When all the problems are strengthened by one person, probably both teachers and interns feel that they will not be able to get better.The Holmes brothers are different from others. They can record a lot of things. According to them, that place is called the thinking hall. Like Sherlock's thinking hall, as long as it is useful, it will be recorded in it.
Not only did he answer all the questions, he was quick to answer them.
The teacher looked at Sherlock and then at the document in which he memorized the test questions, he was stunned. He even had a feeling that he had given the answers to Lestrade while sleepwalking. At this moment, Sherlock stood up, He adjusted his coat and showed a hypocritical smirk, "Are there any other questions? Did I pass the test?"
"Yes, it is."
Sherlock raised his eyebrows, he raised his foot and walked towards the door, and when he passed the poor teacher, he nodded, showing a sense of arrogance.
Jasmine Amber looked at Sherlock leaving with envy in her heart. She was envious of his ability. She was extremely unconfident about herself. After all, Jasmine was not a top student in school, but it was probably Sherlock who gave him the opportunity. After giving her some confidence, Jasmine clenched her fists tightly, no matter whether she would be selected or not, she still wanted to challenge herself once.

"Okay, congratulations on passing, but this is my case Sherlock, and please don't show your excitement, not everyone has a high-functioning sociopath like you, if you don't want to be beaten, just be good Yes, Okay?"
"I listen to you, Inspector."
If you are not obedient, there will be no case. Sherlock is very clear, isn't it just obedient? It's not difficult.
"Okay, wait until you get in and don't talk obediently."
Sherlock made a zip movement, promising to keep his mouth shut.
This is the third time for Anderson to see Sherlock. He still has a fresh memory of Sherlock. First of all, Sherlock's outstanding appearance can be remembered by people. Secondly, he is more arrogant. The last time he called them both For... stupid, in the end, Anderson remembered that this man was Lestrade's younger brother, and he really wanted to ask Lestrade why your family raised such a different child.
Because Anderson had never seen the brats of the Lestrade family, of course he would not know that the brats were even more distinctive.

Anderson brought the new autopsy report to Lestrade. Lestrade fell silent looking at the data, but Sherlock, who had been peeping, started to work. After the report came out, he knew what Lestrade suspected before. So, what is the killer injecting after death to cover up?It can't be to make the case more imaginative, he must have other purposes.
"What purpose are you suspecting the murderer?"
"Almost, I thought the murderer should be someone Ms. Paula Wells knew, but this was just a guess.

Sherlock nodded. Sure enough, Lestrade was the only person in Scotland Yard who was not a goldfish. His IQ was still up to standard. At least he could tell that the murderer was an acquaintance.
"But the problem still arises here. Although Miss Paula Wells has the habit of keeping a diary, we don't know Miss Anna Louise's social circle, and the number of overlapping people is also uncertain."
In the end, the matter still happened in the social circle, Sherlock touched his chin, "The murderer must be someone near the East End of London, Inspector, you once said that all the relevant videos of the time of this night's crime were lost, then please go down with your stupid hands." Find out whether the vehicles on the relevant roads leaving and entering the Eastern District overlap within two hours before and after the incident."
Lestrade suddenly realized when he heard Sherlock's words, why didn't they expect that the clue of the East End was also suspicious, because the video was destroyed, they were more suspicious that the murderer committed the crime by driving, but if there was a movement that confused them, The people behind the killer did it on purpose to get them to look away from the area.
The most dangerous place is the safest place, isn't it?
Lestrade called Donovan. Donovan was the number one detective under Lestrade and the second only to Lestrade in the homicide squad. The most important thing was Lestrade. I have a lot of trust in her.
"Donovan, I need you to check something for me."
"Boss, I just wanted to find you. The Ripper impersonated the criminal, and it was still in the East End of London."
No one would have thought that the murderer broke the routine and shortened the time for committing the crime. Lestrade's face changed when he heard the case, and he asked sharply, "What's the situation?"
"I just received a report that a woman died tragically in her home. Her identity has been initially confirmed. Alice Senior, 25 years old, is a professional prostitute."
It happened so suddenly, and this time Jack the Ripper came to commit the crime, which made Lestrade feel even more shocked. Sherlock has been leaning aside and listening to the phone, his eyes lit up when he heard that there was a case Come to think of it, he knew about the previous cases from newspapers and Lestrade's few words, and he had never seen them at the scene.

Lestrade made inferences, not only the same car, but more likely the same person, what if the murderer found a place to dispose of everything.
"Okay, I'll do it right away."
Now Lestrade has to rush to the scene immediately. To be honest, he is in a bad mood now. The murderer has begun to play cards not according to common sense. The real Jack the Ripper murdered indoors is the fifth case, and the victim is also A 25-year-old young woman.
Lestrade fell into thinking, why did he abandon the fourth serial crime and choose to directly enter the fifth?Is it because the girls are starting to protect themselves?

"Inspector, have you decided to involve me?"
"Yes, it's still the request, follow my command."
The bear boy Sherlock just let go. As the temporary guardian, Lestrade was worried that he would get into some trouble, maybe encounter some danger, so he made three chapters and said one sentence three times. He asked Sherlock to listen to his own words. Let him do whatever he wants.

Donovan couldn't object to Lestrade's words, but in her opinion, it was inappropriate for an outsider to enter the scene and intervene in their case. This was a way of denying their ability.
It’s just that Donovan doesn’t want outsiders to intervene in any kind of case. This is where Lestrade is different from them, and it is one of the reasons why Sherlock will stick to Lestrade, because he is so special. A person who thinks very little of his dignity and honor, since he can't solve this case and Sherlock can help, why not go to him.
As for the face of Scotland Yard and the dignity of the inspector, in Lestrade's opinion, that's fart, human life is more important than anything else!
Sherlock put on gloves and shoe covers and entered the scene, and Lestrade followed his footsteps. The first thing Sherlock looked at was the victim's body. He was comparing the victim with the last one of Jack the Ripper. A victim's similarity between the two.There was an inconspicuous needle-pocket on Alice Senior's neck, which coincided with the strangle marks on the neck of the last victim.The nose and the breasts were cut off, which is the same, but there are differences, the 1888 victim did not have the uterus removed and the intestines pulled out, and the dead man's trachea was cut open. different.
Sherlock glanced at the victim's face, the lipstick on the lips was a little less, he compared his hand up, sure that the victim should have wanted to scream when the killer injected, but he covered it The mouth was rubbed off a lot.
This shows that the murderer was familiar with the building and was worried that someone would hear the screams coming up.
Although the victim was naked, there were no hickey marks or other ambiguous marks on her body, which meant that the murderer was less likely to be a prostitute. down.
He stood up and looked around. There was no trace of moving anything in this house. There was a lot of blood on the head of the bed. According to the angle of the blood spray, the victim Alice Senior was caught by the murderer on the back of the bed. The hair cut off the trachea from the back, so the blood sprayed to the head of the bed and the wall above the bed, but there was no blood on the back.
Sherlock walked to the window. According to the amount of blood, the murderer could not have come out clean. He would definitely be stained with blood. Originally, Sherlock doubted whether the murderer would leave the window. He pushed the window hard and it opened up.Sherlock stretched out his head to have a look, and Lestrade also came over, "Do you think the murderer left from here?"
"Yes, you can doubt it for the time being."
Lestrade saw a red fingerprint on the white edge of the bed, and on the window something had been bound.
"The murderer flew over the wall in the middle of the night?"
"According to the time, it should be the darkest time, but the street lights in the city of London and last night was not cloudy and happened to be a full moon, the murderer got the corresponding light, so it is not difficult to leave. According to the shoe prints It is said that the murderer went down bit by bit by grabbing a rope or something, our victim lived on the fourth floor, and there was no protective window, so it was a breeze to leave."
Sherlock pointed to the distance that could be seen below, and made two movements. According to the footprints, this is how the murderer went down.
When she just came in, Sherlock really thought that the murderer left through the gate. After all, the windows were closed, but this was actually just a disguise. The murderer thought he had confused the police, but in fact he also exposed himself.
"It seems that our murderer is extremely clever, but his cleverness was misunderstood by his cleverness. Inspector, you can ask if anyone saw someone going out near the alley at one o'clock in the morning."
Sherlock took off his gloves, "And..." He saw the bedside table, where there were some medicines, he walked up to pick up the medicines and took a look, "It seems that our victim is still sick , the medicine was not opened, maybe we can suspect that the murderer is the person who delivered the medicine to her, the customer who helped bring the medicine, or someone else."
Lestrade glanced at the scene again and said, "I'm going to ask if there are any witnesses now, do you want to go with me?"
"of course."
Judging from the time of the victim's death, there is a certain possibility that someone will see outsiders coming in through the gate. With the footprints that can be collected, they are one step closer to the murderer.
The most regrettable thing is that the murderer probably committed the crime with gloves on. Although there were marks, no fingerprints were left behind.
Lestrade went downstairs, he asked Anderson to start the autopsy, Donovan stepped forward and whispered next to Lestrade: "Boss, someone said that they saw a strange man entering this building last night. Lou, at 11:30."
"Who? Who saw it?"
Sherlock also raised his eyebrows, thinking that there were actually witnesses.
"The one we investigated before, that Dr. Tommy Andrew."
