Pigeon Flaw 1

Arthur is a well-known antique dealer in the town of Bran. He had a friend named Blake, who was a professor of zoology and botany at the university. On this day, Arthur and Blake agreed to have a drink together, and the meeting place was at the Cross Club.

Arthur booked table 8 in the corner of the club. While drinking whiskey, he was waiting for Professor Blake. At this time, Albert, the owner of the pet shop, came over and sat across from Arthur, playing with coins in his right hand and fingers in his left hand, shouting at the bar: "Emma, give me a bottle of beer."

Arthur smiled and said, "I'm sorry, Albert. I booked this table. I am waiting for a very important guest. ”

"Oh? Is there anyone here? Albert seemed to have just found Arthur. He was surprised. The coin accidentally fell on the table, spun around a few times, and then stopped in front of Arthur.

Arthur stared at the coin and found that it was an ancient coin with an engraved year. At that time, the hostess Emma came over with a beer and asked Albert to change the table.

"Let Albert and I talk for a while. I'm treated to this beer. Arthur motioned for Emma to put down the beer and then pick up the coin. As he secretly looked closely, he pretended to be careless and asked, "Albert, when did you start collecting coins?"

"I don't have this leisure!" Albert grabbed the beer, took a few sips, and said, "I picked it up under a cherry tree when I was walking through the woods." You can have it if you like. I don't want to owe you a favor. This is my beer money! ”

There is a forest south of the town of Bran where there is an old cherry tree. Locals believe that ancient trees are spiritual, so they often use stones to knock coins into the trees to pray.

Arthur was overjoyed because it was a real ancient coin. If the mountains were crisscrossed, Albert simply didn't realize its value. After drinking the beer, he smiled and left.

Maybe there's more than one ancient coin on the tree? Arthur thought darkly. He saw that there was still a little time left before the agreed time, so he decided to go to the woods first. He took care of Emma. When Professor Black arrived, he asked the Professor to go to the woods to find him. Colony

Soon, Professor Blake came to the club as promised and went straight to table 8. He stared at the glass and the beer bottle and muttered, "Arthur only drank whiskey, never beer." Has he invited anyone else besides me? ”

"It's Albert from the pet shop. They happened to meet. They only talked a few words. Emma explained, "A quarter of an hour ago, Arthur left. He said he wanted you to go to the woods to find him. ”

Professor Blake walked along the riverbed and found a dead black pigeon by the river. It was a purebred black King Kong pigeon with several scratches on the inside of its wings, a thick yellow liquid all over its body, and a strong odor.

Perhaps out of professional sensitivity, Professor Black picked up pigeons in the film bag he was carrying and wanted to take them back to study. At this moment, he suddenly heard a terrible howl, looked inside, and saw a man staggering out of the woods, and behind him was a group of black pressed wasps. Hundreds of wasps let out a "buzzing" roar, chasing and attacking the escapees. The escapee fell to the ground, struggling in pain, and finally exhausted and collapsed by the river. After the swarm stopped attacking, it flew like a dark cloud into the woods.

Professor Blake was shocked. He called the emergency number and quickly approached the injured. That's Arthur! His whole body was red and swollen, and his clothes were stained with a yellow viscous liquid, emitting a strong odor, like a dead black Kongo.

When the ambulance arrived, Arthur was dead, and it was tentatively determined that he had died of bee venom. You know, wasps, also known as killer bees, are very aggressive. Professor Black is surprised because wasps don't attack humans for no reason... He went into the woods and found Arthur's relics under a cherry tree covered with coins: a magnifying glass, a croissant hammer, and a chisel, and a huge wasp nest hung from the canopy of the cherry tree.

Blake thought Arthur might have tried to pry out the coin embedded in the cherry tree, only to have the wasp attack him. But he had apparently made an appointment to meet him at the Cross Club. Why did he suddenly come alone in the woods looking for coins? Black Kong

Arthur's young and beautiful wife, Sophia, was not saddened by her husband's sudden death. In the darkness of the night, Sophia sat alone in the dimly lit living room, with a glass of red wine in her hand, thinking of herself. A man sneaked in and hugged Sophia from behind. Sophia put down her red wine, stroked her furry arm, and said angrily, "Dear Albert, I guess you're coming tonight, so I left you the door."

"My careful liver, you are such a windy witch, you can guess anything."

"I also know arthur didn't die in an accident, but you did it on purpose, right?"
