Chapter 63: Legend of King Arthur
Katerina shook her head and said, "It's not that complicated. Xiao Ming may have written seven letters but only sent one, or put all seven letters in one envelope."
Hermione, Harry and Ron: "(⊙⊙)⊙⊙)⊙⊙)!!"
"Smart." Chen Bin snapped his fingers and smiled lightly: "Kate's answer fully utilized all the hints in the question, so it can be regarded as the real answer. Harry and Ron's answers cannot be ruled out because we have no further evidence to prove that this possibility will not happen. However, Hermione, you can't even provide an answer, you can only deny the possibility, how can you investigate the case?"
"How can you say that?" Hermione stamped her feet angrily and said, "Your question has multiple answers. No matter how we guess, you can choose another answer."
"Okay, suppose I wrote the answer on paper before letting you solve it, can you think of Kate's answer?"
After Chen Bin said this, the three of them were silent, leaving Kate with an expression of coming to praise me.
"Do you understand? When there is only one truth left, you still eliminated the answer that best fits the puzzle." Chen Bin suddenly turned his head to look at Katerina, waved his hand and said, "Your answer is only the closest to the truth."
"What?" Katerina was confused and asked, "What is the real answer?"
Under the serious gaze of the four people, Chen Bin raised his hands and surrendered:
"Okay, real criminal investigation requires evidence, but whether it is human evidence, physical evidence or scientific evidence, there will be lies, and it is not ruled out that the evidence is misleading the entire investigation.
So, even impeccable evidence may point to the direction preset by the murderer. Not all cases can find the real answer. The truth can only be known by the murderer. If you three continue to investigate like this, you will always get an answer within the scope of reasoning, and no one can guarantee that it is the truth."
Kate fell silent after hearing this, but Hermione became more and more dissatisfied.
"When all doubts are eliminated, no matter how illogical the only answer left is, it is also the only truth that can be found." Chen Bin saw that the time was almost up, and said that he had something to do and slipped away.
As soon as he left, Kate went to the next door to participate in the event.
"Hermione, do you want to investigate further?" Ron said a little depressed.
"Of course I have to investigate further." Hermione's eyes were burning with fire, and she said with high morale: "I want to prove that his theory is wrong."
Harry was helpless. "Aren't you going to prove my innocence?"
"This is also one of the purposes." Hermione made amends, and then pulled the two to another activity room.
Chen Bin did not return to the dormitory immediately, but borrowed a few books from the library first, and then came back to enchant while reading, all because Ron just mentioned Merlin's beard.
In the British magic world, the exclamation of wizards is not Oh my god, but Merlin's clothes or beard.
Chen Bin was not so idle that he studied idioms. He was interested in the name Merlin.
In his previous life, he had read a reading comprehension question about "The Legend of King Arthur" on an English test paper. The general idea was that King Arthur was a fictional character. After being distorted by folk songs and legends, he combined the characteristics of many historical figures, and even the background of his existence was untestable.
The fictional background was about the fifth century AD. The magician Merlin once pointed out that there was a sword in the stone in London, and the person who pulled out the sword in the stone would become the new king of England. Countless knights competed to pull out the sword to no avail, and then Arthur pulled it out easily, and his life of cheating began.
Today, Chen Bin finally had some free time, while mindlessly enchanting, he looked up the version of the magic world.
After reading for three hours, he was sure that King Arthur and Merlin in this world might also be fictional.
Merlin was born at some time in the Middle Ages. Well, there is nothing wrong with this paragraph. Which fairy tale does not use "Once upon a time" as the opening line?
What happened next? Merlin once attended Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry and was assigned to Slytherin College!
Chen Bin almost bleeds when he read it. Is this book definitely not written by Rita Skeeter?
Merlin's life story is similar in many books. The Muggle version of King Arthur takes place in the 5th century, but Hogwarts was built around 990.
After graduation, Merlin became a member of King Arthur's court, assisted him in becoming a wise king, and made friends with the Knights of the Round Table.
He believed that wizards should help Muggles to achieve peaceful coexistence, so he founded the Order of Merlin to advocate for the rights of Muggles and drafted regulations prohibiting the use of magic against Muggles.
His outstanding achievements made him deified as the strongest wizard in history by later generations. In addition to having rich magical experience and knowledge reserves, he was even called the "Prince of Magic".
After his death, the Wizengamot established an honor system in the name of the Order of Merlin.
However, for such a famous person, isn't it strange that no wizard has found his or King Arthur's tomb so far?
