Chapter 632 "Research on Letters in Scarlet"(2/2)
Holmes was slightly surprised when he heard this, and a trace of anxiety flashed across his face. Watson observed Holmes in great detail.
Many listeners have not forgotten that the story is told from the perspective of Watson's memories. After a few chapters, some listeners have already smelled a little bit of the cp.
[His name is Arthur Charpentier, and he is a lieutenant in the Royal Navy.]
After Grayson proudly announced the name of the murderer, the anxious look on Holmes' face disappeared.
Charpentier is the son of Traiper's original landlord. According to the conversation with the landlord, he learned that Traiper stayed at the house for three weeks. In the process, he touched the maid and even set his sights on Charpentier's sister Alice.
After Charpentier learned about this incident, he had a dispute with Dzeiber and threatened the other party.
Just when Grayson was satisfied with his deduction, his subordinate suddenly brought news.
Drieber's secretary Stan Jason was found in the hotel, but he was already a corpse when he was found.
With the murder of Stangerson, the case that originally seemed to be somewhat clear was once again cast into a cloud and became complicated.
Stangerson was murdered in a hotel and stabbed in the heart.
At the same time, someone had the same words written on his face in blood as at the previous crime scene - RACHE.
There was a child who had seen the murderer at the crime scene, and his appearance once again successfully matched Holmes's guess. He was tall and red-faced.
Other clues at the scene were that Stangerson's money was not missing, and there was only a telegram from Cleveland in his pocket, which read "JH now in Europe."
In addition, there were two pills at the scene.
After experiments, it was concluded that this was the poison that poisoned Dreiber.
At this point, for Holmes, the last piece of the puzzle of the case has been completed.
While both detectives were still confused and confused, Holmes already knew who the murderer was.
And in order to avoid the official alerting the enemy, he was prepared to go ahead and catch the murderer alone.
Holmes had previously asked Flow to help call a carriage.
After asking for handcuffs from the detective, Holmes asked the coachman to go upstairs to help carry the luggage.
And when no one expected it, when Holmes asked the coachman for help, he accidentally put the handcuffs on the coachman's hands.
[Please allow me to introduce to you Mr. Jefferson Hope, the murderer of Driber and Stangerson.]
Before anyone could react, Holmes announced that the murderer had been brought to justice.
It wasn't until the driver was about to escape that the detectives on the scene reacted and worked together to arrest the murderer.
The murderer has been brought to justice, and the story of "A Study in Scarlet" is officially over halfway.
The narration of more than an hour gave the audience a relatively comprehensive understanding of the whole story.
At the same time, the format of Jiang Yuan's storytelling is very immersive. Overall, it is indeed a very suitable story for late-night reading.
However, after finishing the first part, Jiang Yuan paused for a few seconds and announced that today's broadcast was over.
The next part will have to wait until the next day’s radio broadcast.
Although it was late at night, the audience was obviously immersed in the story, and they were extremely curious about how Holmes targeted the coachman and the story behind the case.
But the radio program is indeed over.
Ke Ge also reluctantly put on the headphones again, turned on the microphone and performed the final ending of the radio station with Jiang Yuan.
My mood is both happy and reluctant.
I am happy that this radio program is the first to listen to at the same time. It is very popular and there will be another one the next day. I am sad because Jiang Yuan’s explanation is really top-notch.
Chapter completed!
