Sherlock Holmes called a chariot, and the three sat up and hurried to the chemical plant.
”Complicity?” Gregson was surprised. ”Don't you say this is a passionate crime, the criminal obviously didn't plan in advance, because Molly's resistance was so fierce that he killed him in a rage and you As I said earlier, there were only two people left in the textile mill. ”
”This is the last and most important part of my reasoning. I later found the answer in the chemical plant next door. Paul is a house shared with others. His roommate is also in the chemical industry like him. Working in the factory, they were off work half an hour later than the textile factory. At that time, the chemical factory that Paul left first went to Molly as usual, but he did not wait for Molly at the place where they often met. Paul also had some time at this time. Unsettled, he made two turns outside the textile factory door to see that it was closed and returned to the chemical factory. ”
”Ok?”
”At this time when his roommate Pearson was still there, he called Pearson to go with him to find Molly.” Holmes said, ”Then the next interesting thing comes, Paul and Pearson soldiers search in two ways. Molly's whereabouts caused Paul to find nothing, but his roommate Pearson accidentally bumped into John who was dragging Molly's body to the river to be disposed of. Normally, most people would face this situation. If you choose to call the police, you can try to capture John first, but our Mr. Pearson chose another way. ”
”What way?” Gregson couldn't help asking.
”Pearson came to London when he was as young as Paul. This is the fourth job he has ever done. Previously, he wiped leather shoes on the street, brushed plates in the restaurant, and took care of the horses. At night Sleeping in the stables ... People like him must have experienced the hardships of life very early. Knowing that a helpless person like him wants to climb up, he must seize every opportunity in front of him, so when he was there that night When he saw John by the river, he realized that the opportunity he had been waiting for finally came. ”
”Pearson persuaded John, who was extremely alarmed at the time, that he could help with this matter, and the latter naturally would not believe such an unnamed pawn, but the situation was not friendly to John at the time, and he didn't actually have much You can only choose to believe in Pearson, but then Pearson proved that he did not live up to this trust, ”Holmes said, looking to Gregson again.” Remember you came to me before, saying that in Paul ’s Did you find Molly's clothes under the bed? I was surprised at the time. Since he had thrown the body into the river, why did he take the clothes off and put them under the bed? ”
Gregson's face was awkward. ”It's ... a problem, why didn't I notice it before.”
”But if this thing Pearson did can explain it, he persuaded John to take off the clothes from Molly's body and take it home with him under Paul's bed so that the police could lock it in. Paul, not Mr. John, and the carpet of the office, John also gave it to Pearson to handle it. This guy did seize the opportunity at hand. In a sense, his choice was successful. I thought that It's not so easy to wait for him to show up, but he never expected that he would make such a low-level mistake.
”He didn't burn the rug the first time, but wanted to give it to the pawn.” Holmes shook his head. ”It seems that the report published in the” Echo ”before is not all Bad things, at least paralyzed his nerves. Considering his previous living environment, such a careful calculation is not incomprehensible, but it saves us a lot of trouble. I got the blanket in John's office, and as soon as I caught Pearson, that person The evidence and physical evidence are complete, and the case is over. ”
The three then got out of the car in front of the chemical plant.
This time, Holmes didn't need to pay for anything, Gregson showed the identity of the police directly, and quickly found Pearson who was still working, but he had some trouble when he was arrested.
Maybe when the chemical factory went on strike before, they came to the police to arrest people, making the workers inside hostile to the police.
