Sherlock Holmes s Identity Case begs to kneel! Sherlock Holmes Detective Identity Case Story Synop

You're referring to "The Strange Case of Doppelgangers" in the Book of Strange Cases, which reads as follows: "The first thing I look at is always a woman's sleeve. Looking at a man, perhaps it is better to look at the knee of his pants first. As you can see, the woman has plush on her sleeves, which is the most useful material for revealing traces.

The two lines a little further up the wrist are where the typist presses against the table, which seems to be very obvious. ”

A woman's sleeve can reveal the daily habits of her hands, that is, her occupation and identity, because at the end of the 19th century, the scope of women's labor was still limited, so professional women were engaged in secretarial work (non-manual labor), so it is natural to start from the sleeve, as for men, the labor will be more extensive, and there will be more walking, and whether the condition of his knee friction is damaged to a certain extent can indicate his identity, It is also necessary to combine other details and synthesize to come up with a reasonable explanation.

In Britain at the end of the 19th century, women's occupations were very limited, generally clerks, typists, tutors, etc., this kind of thing basically needs to work at the desk, so there will be different degrees of traces such as wear and tear in places like cuffs, similar to the traces of fingertips and other areas, Fu also used a similar observation and reasoning method in "The Lone Cyclist".

In contrast, men are engaged in a wide range of occupations, and the knee should be a relatively basic point of observation, because people with higher incomes in the upper class (commonly known as the gentleman class) tend to be well-dressed (extravagant and even throw away clothes after a day), and do not need to do any manual labor, and the knee is mostly invisible; People from the lower classes work hard, stand up and sit down more often, their pants pull more on their knees, and some people even need to kneel on the ground often, and there will be different types of smudges on their knees, etc.

To explain it in more popular terms, it is probably that a young man eats soft rice and finds a middle-aged widow to marry, so that he can enjoy the inheritance that the widow inherited from her deceased husband. Interestingly, the widow's young daughter also inherited a fortune from another relative, so similar to the motive of "The Spotted Tape Case" and "Kiritama Beech", the stepfather who eats soft rice intends to keep the young daughter at home forever and be single, so that he has two possessions available. When his daughter became more and more resistant to him and found that he could no longer be locked up, he and the widow came up with a trick, that is, to take advantage of his daughter's short-sightedness, pretend to be another young man to deceive his daughter's heart, and use old tricks to demand that his daughter be loyal to his "fiancé" forever.

When he arrived at the door of the wedding church, he slipped away and played a missing trick, after the fate of the "fiancé" was uncertain, his daughter would not give up the search and would not find someone else to marry.

Unfortunately, this foolish trick was completely debunked by Mr. Holmes, but unfortunately, as Holmes had feared at the beginning, there was no English law governing such a thing, so it was finally abandoned.

What do you mean? Is it a name or?
