well-known saying

[Edit this paragraph]

1. You can't reason without any evidence. In that case, you can only go astray.

Everything in the world has been done before, and there is nothing new.

It is wrong to confuse strangeness with mystery, but the most common crime is often the most mysterious, because it has no strangeness as the basis of reasoning and judgment.

What goes unnoticed is not an obstacle, but a clue. When solving this kind of problems, we mainly use the method of reasoning and push back layer by layer.

Don't let a person's appearance affect your judgment. This is the most important thing. Emotion will affect reason.

6. We must go deep into life. Only in this way can we get novel effects and unusual cooperation, which is more wonderful than any imagination.

Generally speaking, the more bizarre things are, the more common the inside story is when the truth comes out. And those very ordinary cases are confusing.

8. Life is boring. I've been trying all my life not to waste time in mediocrity. These small cases have made my wish come true.

9. Unusual phenomena can always give people some clues, while cases without characteristics are difficult to solve.

10. For a real theorist, if someone points out one aspect of a fact, he can not only infer all aspects of the fact, but also infer all the consequences that will result from it. Just as Ju Ye Wei can accurately describe a complete animal from a bone after careful consideration. An observer who thoroughly understands one link in a series of events should be able to accurately capture all other links. We haven't reached the point where we can draw a conclusion as long as we master reason. This problem can only be solved through research. If you want to solve the problem only by perception, you will certainly fail in the end. However, to give full play to this talent, the reasoner must be good at using all the facts he has. This means that the reasoner should have profound knowledge.

1 1. Once you eliminate all the impossible facts, the rest, no matter how incredible, are all facts.

12. How important this idea is! Imagine what has happened and do what you want, and maybe you can find the result.

13. In detective work, the most important thing is to distinguish between primary and secondary from complicated facts. Otherwise, your spirit will be scattered rather than concentrated.

14. Once or twice, I deeply realized that the harm I caused by catching criminals was more serious than the crime itself. I have learned to be cautious now. I'd rather cheat the law without conscience.

15. First of all, we must rule out all the impossible conclusions, and the rest, no matter how bizarre and incredible, must be irrefutable facts. There may be several explanations left. If so, we must confirm them one by one until there is only one explanation with sufficient evidence.

16. When all other possibilities are ruled out and there is only one left, it is also true that it is impossible.

17. In the eyes of great men, nothing is insignificant.

18. Human beings are very small, and work is everything.

19. If the journey of my life ends tonight, I can die with a clear conscience. Because of my existence, the air in London is very fresh. In more than 1000 cases I have handled, I believe I have never used my strength in the wrong place.

20. If I can guarantee to destroy you, I will die with you for the benefit of society.

2 1. Since it makes sense morally, all I have to consider is personal risk. If a lady is in urgent need of help, a gentleman should not think too much about personal safety.

22. Watson, I have never been in love. However, if I have been in love, if the woman I love is in such a terrible situation, I may do it like our lawless lion hunter. Nobody knows.

23. As time goes by, nothing is invincible.

24. Brother Watson, this is really a constant moment in a changing era. There will be an east wind. This kind of wind has never been blown in Britain. Watson, the wind will be very cold and fierce. Many of us may wither when this gust of wind blows. But this is still the wind of God. After the storm, a purer, better and stronger country will stand in the sun.

25. Idiots are idiots, but more idiots applaud them.

26. My mind is everything to me, and my body is just an accessory.

27. If I can get rid of the scourge of moriarty for the society, I would rather end my detective career. I can say that I have not wasted my life at all. If my life journey ends today, I can die with a clear conscience. For me, nothing is more satisfactory than this ending.

28. You are watching, and I am observing. There are obvious differences.

29. It's strange if you know all the details of a thousand cases, but you can't solve the 10 1 case.

You say we go around the sun, but even if we go around the moon, it won't have any influence on me and my work.

3 1. Modesty and pride run counter to the facts.

32. I decided to take the prisoner's side instead of the dead.

Watson not only looks with his eyes, but also calls it observation. Seeing and observing are very different.

34. The so-called events are easy to solve as long as they are insoluble. What is really tricky is those seemingly ordinary and featureless crimes.

Sherlock Holmes and Jack the Ripper

[Edit this paragraph]

Many people have talked about this problem ... there are many movies and games about this topic. It is generally believed that Holmes was born in 1854, so he was only 34 years old in 1888, that is, the year of Jack the Ripper's activities, that is, before The Four Elephants. Watson should still be living with him at that time. Why is such an important case not written in The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes or even mentioned?

If, according to my explanation, Holmes really exists, then it is very likely that Holmes has successfully solved the case, otherwise Jack the Ripper could not have stopped after killing five women. However, because sensitive people are involved, it is inconvenient to disclose details, and even Conan Doyle may not know the specific situation.

According to my friend's explanation, Holmes does not exist, but this case does exist. Then even Conan Doyle can't help it, just don't mention it. In fact, Conan Doyle did put forward his own inference about the identity of the murderer after the murder in Jack the Ripper. It's just that he and the police at that time decided it was the last victim: Mary? Kelly's husband committed a crime to intimidate and punish his wife. This inference is not only inconsistent with the witness testimony at that time, but also inconsistent with Jack the Ripper's criminal trajectory.

Brain and heart

An Englishman who plays Sherlock Holmes on the stage said, "The most terrible thing about Sherlock is that he only has a brain but no heart. He is completely empty. " I beg to differ from this statement. Holmes' accurate inference of the case comes from the brain, but his judgment of justice comes from the heart.
