"murder?"
In the anatomy room, hundreds of students immediately became noisy.
Professor Bell knocked on the blackboard hard, "Quiet, quiet, let's listen to what Mr. Conan Doyle said first."
The classroom finally became quiet, and hundreds of students were all staring at Arthur again.
Arthur calmly pointed to the strangulation marks on the back of the corpse's neck.
"Please imagine what it would be like to be a person hanging from a rope."
As Arthur said this, he used his hands to pretend to be a rope and tied it around his neck.
"Due to gravity, the marks under the neck of the corpse are the deepest. I think no one would object to this!"
He glanced around for a week and saw that the students all agreed with his statement, and then continued: "Then let's take a look at this corpse again. The strangulation marks on his neck are almost even, especially these two different ones. The strangulation marks that should appear on the back of the neck make it easy for us to guess that the deceased should have been strangled tightly with a rope from behind."
Arthur's explanation was not complicated, and the students in the classroom couldn't help but applaud his wit.
"How on earth do these police officers do things? This is simply a waste of human life. I must report it to the superiors."
Professor Bell's face was flushed with excitement, and his already high tone almost pierced the roof at this moment.
Arthur didn't know why the professor was so excited. He told the corpse's cause of death out of professional instinct as a forensic doctor in his previous life.
And whether the police station wants to re-investigate or let it go, he has no interest in continuing to participate.
The murder case was just an episode in the class. The sun was about to set. Due to the limitation of light, Arthur had to finish his lecture before dark.
But the classmates refused to let him leave like this. In the end, Professor Bell used the teacher's authority, but he left Arthur alone.
"Smart boy, I feel very honored to be your teacher."
Facing Professor Bell's admiring gaze, Arthur hurriedly and humbly replied: "I have to thank you for your help. I think this paper report should also have your signature. Please don't refuse." ."
Professor Bell knew that Arthur was not a person who was accustomed to flattery, which showed that he was truly grateful to him.
However, Professor Bell also had a bottom line as a teacher. He was unwilling to be a thief of honor, so he refused Arthur's kindness.
However, thinking of Arthur's character, Professor Bell had to remind: "The Chief Minister of the Interior will also attend the reception early next month. I hope you can be more prepared."
The Chief Home Secretary mentioned by Professor Bell is the highest minister of Scotland. Because Scotland has its own parliament, the Chief Home Secretary is also the Prime Minister of Scotland.
The arrival of a big shot in person should have been a very honorable thing, but Arthur felt very upset.
This is not to say that he has any prejudice against the highest official of Scotland, but that he is really not very interested in this kind of entertainment. He has been like this in his past life and this life.
However, in the face of the teacher's kindness, Arthur nodded very sincerely and said, "I will remember it, sir. Thank you for the reminder."
Professor Bell noticed that Arthur was a little absent-minded, and recalled that in the past six months, from cultivating mycelium to extracting mycocin, every success he had brought him huge surprises.
In the end, he could only attribute Arthur's temperament to the unique characteristics of genius.
Since the completion of the Industrial Revolution and the defeat of the Spanish Armada at sea, Britain has gradually become what people call the empire on which the sun never sets.
Whether economically or technologically, the British have always flaunted their leading position in the world.
But in recent years, especially in the mid-eighteenth century, France and Germany have gradually caught up with Britain in science and technology, especially in the medical field.
The microbiology Arthur studies is the most difficult and coldest science in the medical world.
Correspondingly, France gave birth to a microbial scientist, Louis Pasteur. In 1956 and 1957, he published a new theory on the nature of fermentation based on the metabolic activities of microorganisms.
Germany also had Robert Koch, who, although still very young, had greater achievements.
This makes the UK, which has always boasted of leading the world in technology, feel like it has been severely slapped in the face.
Therefore, Arthur's research not only eliminated cholera, but also made the entire British medical community feel proud, especially when facing the mortal enemy the French, they could raise their arrogant heads high again.
However, Arthur shared his research results with the world for free, which also made many aristocratic interest groups very dissatisfied.
This includes Queen Victoria and Scotland's First Home Secretary, because they did not earn a single penny from Arthur's great creation.
In order to prevent this proud disciple from further offending those in power, Professor Bell could only persuade him again: "My child, your selflessness touches me very much, but you must also learn to watch your words and make some appropriate compromises. I also call him Art, although I am not very good at it myself, but you are a person who wants to do great things, and you are destined to leave a name in history, so you must also understand that without their help, you will be unable to do anything in the future."
Arthur knew that Professor Bell meant well, but he never thought about accomplishing anything big, nor did he ever think about using his research to make money or gain fame.
Professor Bell finished his words and patted Arthur's shoulder encouragingly twice.
"The weekly vacation will start tomorrow. You have been tired enough during this period. Why not just find a comfortable place to go on vacation! Believe me, my child, combining work and rest will make your mind more flexible."
After saying that, he waved his hand angrily and said, "I'm also going to notify those stupid police officers and let them see the damn mistake I made."
At the Central Police Station of Scotland, Officer Chris knocked on the door of the Chief Constable.
"Come in."
Director Colin Lestrade was leaning lazily in his seat at the moment. When he saw Chris coming in, his eyes flickered and he couldn't help but curiously asked: "What happened?"
Chris saluted first, and then replied with some hesitation: "Report to the director, we just got a call from the University of Edinburgh saying that we made a mistake in handling the case."
Colin immediately frowned. Thinking that it was the University of Edinburgh, he couldn't help but asked with some hesitation: "Could it be Professor Bell who reported the crime?"
"That's him, Director!"
Colin slapped his forehead hard, "Why does this damn old stubborn always come to trouble us because of his daughter? Damn it!"
Chris was stunned into silence by Director Colin's outburst.
"What did that old guy say again?"
Colin knew that although Professor Bell always made trouble for him, he would not falsely accuse them out of thin air.
"It's the body we sent yesterday. Originally we thought it was suicide, but Professor Bell said it was murder."
When Colin heard this, he became even more angry, "It was because there was a famous person in their school that I finally convinced the family to send this body for them to do research. Not only does this old guy not know how to be grateful, he actually Come here and cause trouble for me."
Just as Colin was about to continue his diatribe, Chris interrupted: "It was the same Arthur Conan Doyle who found the body murdered."
"What?"
When Colin heard that the troublemaker was actually the most famous person in Britain recently, he immediately calmed down.
After thinking carefully, he suddenly got off the chair under his buttocks.
"Go and call me Sher."
