Chapter 504 Detective Story Time
Chapter 504 Detective Story Time
Although he was sure from the beginning that Fu Luo had not done anything excessive, Lin Yu was still a little shocked when the correct answer was revealed.
Fu Luo, so your way of trying to please the Patriarch of the Buyetian family is to tell him stories?
And it seems that the stories of Sherlock Holmes and Hercule Poirot are being applied to myself...
No buddy, your ID is Forpolo, do you really think you are one of them?
The owner of this house is also like this. At first glance, she looks like a little girl, but her conversation with Huo Le in Buyetian just now made her seem very mature.
Now looking at it, it seems that she still retains some parts of being a little girl?
However, although he had a lot of complaints in his heart, Lin Yu still told the story honestly.
At the same time, he couldn't help but feel fortunate...
"Luckily, I've read Agatha Christie's The Mysterious Affair at Styles and remember the general plot."
Lin Yu cleared his throat, sat down and began to tell the head of Buye Tian family about the novel in Fu Luo's tone.
The head of the Buye Tian family sat quietly in Lin Yu's arms, listening to his story with bright eyes, and making sounds like "Oh" from time to time.
Since "The Mysterious Affair at Styles" is Agatha Christie's debut work, the story structure is relatively simple, and Lin Yu finished the whole story very quickly.
"I see, so they poisoned the victim in advance... Not too clever, but still quite interesting."
After listening to Lin Yu's story, the head of the Buyetian family suddenly commented.
After the Buyetian Patriarch finished speaking, he jumped out of Lin Yu's arms and said, "Overall, I think your case this time can only be described as above average in terms of complexity and novelty."
Lin Yu looked at the Patriarch of Buyetian and said with a smile: "Indeed, this is not a very special case..."
The head of the Buyetian family must have planned many assassinations...
The techniques used in early detective novels such as "The Mysterious Affair at Styles" may not be new or exciting to her.
Lin Yu held his chin up and looked at the Patriarch of Buyetian: "How about I tell you another one?"
"Of course it's good!"
The head of the Buye Tian family raised his hands, smiled happily, and then sat opposite Lin Yu again.
Lin Yu cleared his throat.
Judging from the fact that the head of the Buyetian family mentioned before that the "assistant" changed from Watson to Hastings, the story that Sherlock Poirot was telling before should be the story of "The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes", and now it should be Poirot's part.
And considering that "The Mysterious Affair at Styles" is the first work in the series, Lin Yu couldn't help but speculate that this should be the first story Fu Luo told about Poirot.
Therefore, as long as what is being said next is about Poirot, it is likely that the head of the Buye Tian family has never heard of it.
As for the fact that Fu Luo would have one less story to tell after he finished telling it, that was not within Lin Yu's consideration.
Lin Yu thought about it in his mind and soon came up with a new plan.
"The case I'm about to tell you is about a serial killer who actively provoked me. This is a serial killer who kills people in alphabetical order of their surnames..."
Lin Yu spoke and told the story of "The ABC Murders".
Soon, Lin Yu finished explaining the case.
Compared to "The Mysterious Affair at Styles", Agatha Christie's writing style had matured when she wrote "The ABC Murders". Agatha at this period had already won the title of "Queen of Mystery". Therefore, although "The ABC Murders" does not have the experience of Agatha's most famous works such as "The Mysterious Affair at Styles", "Murder on the Orient Express" and "And Then There Were None", the plot content is definitely wonderful and it also created some new concepts of suspense and reasoning.
This time, the head of the Buye Tian family listened more attentively.
When Lin Yu finally revealed the answer, the head of Buyetian family sighed.
"The best place to hide a leaf is in the forest..."
"This is really interesting, beyond my expectation."
As she spoke, she held her chin with one hand and looked at Lin Yu: "I like this case very much."
"Although I still want to hear a few more, but for now, let's talk about serious matters."
"Huo Le came to me to ask for the 'Invitation to Huo Xing's Birthday Party' for Ru, and to get some benefits for herself..."
"What about you? Why are you here? And why do you want to attend Huo Xing's birthday party?"
Lin Yu replied sternly, "I just want to give Huo Le a better chance of winning. Someone has to do what she's not good at."
Then, Lin Yu changed the subject: "Of course, I haven't been back for a long time. This time I came back, of course I had to come to see you right away."
This answer is perfect.
When the head of Buyetian heard what Lin Yu said, he couldn't help but chuckle.
"That's a very A Luo-esque answer."
"You really are getting better and better at making me happy. That's great."
"And you actually care so much about Huo Le... I'm very happy."
The head of the Buyetian family said this, narrowing his eyes slightly.
She looks about 70% similar to Buye Tian Huo Le and Buye Tian Huo Shu. The two siblings have the same fiery red eyes and fox eyes with drooping corners as their mother.
But the eyes of the Buye Tian family's head were longer and narrower than those of her children. When she squinted, she looked like a little fox.
"But, A'Luo, do you know which god I am chosen by?"
When Lin Yu heard the Buyetian Patriarch ask this, he said in a relaxed tone: "I don't know. Did you tell me? I don't remember."
"I didn't tell you, but you can guess."
As the Buyetian Patriarch spoke, Lin Yu shook his head: "How could I have guessed that?"
Actually, you can guess it.
After all, it is known that behind the Truth Company are the God of Miracles and the God of Wisdom.
It is most likely one of the two gods.
Moreover, Lin Yu had already seen the "statue" downstairs just now.
Judging from the feeling of the statue and the "library" that appeared on the top floor, it was not difficult for Lin Yu to guess...
If nothing unexpected happens, the head of the Buye Tian family should be the chosen one of the "God of Wisdom".
Sure enough, the head of the Buyetian family spoke lightly.
"I am the chosen one of the God of Wisdom."
As she spoke, she stood up and looked at Lin Yu with interest.
"So... which god sent you?"
"And what did you do to A Luo?"
As she spoke, all the bookshelves began to tremble. Heavy books flew into the air and hovered, their pages rustling.
"Although you are already realistic enough...but, you are not A Luo."
The head of the Buyetian family spoke calmly.
When Lin Yu heard that his identity was exposed by the other party, he still sat there.
"Hmm... I've been seen through."
It was expected.
He was not at all alarmed.
After all, being seen through at this point, or being pointed out at this point, for Lin Yu...
It is totally acceptable.
