Up until now, nobody actually answered all the questions, who, why, and how did it. Actually, u/honaka_ and u/prudent-muffine-2461 teamed up and solved the case, but there answers was not complete. Though I asked them about it, and after that long, I'm not waiting for anyone to solve it. Maybe, it's truly a really hard one to crack.

Who did: Inspector Lestrad. (They were correct, but never explained some things, which might misguide.)

Why did: To make Ms. Watson a widow and probably remarry her.

How did: The bugler who broke into the clinic was him. He probably guessed that Dr. Wood won't go home first to put his emergency kit there, and won't take it to the party too, as it's not a common thing to do. He then came there in uniform to camouflage. The next day, the medicine actually had poison, and that's why Mr. Watson died. But inspector swapped the cartridge before giving it to Lupin, probably destroyed the original one, and took the one for chemical testing. He maybe wanted to make it seem that doctor changed the cartridge.

How Lupin caught him: Not mentioned in the original story. Maybe he saw that Ms. Watson cheated, got pregnant. So, she tried to kill him with her secret lover. But then Lupin saw how much she was guilty of cheating. So she can't be the killer. Hence, only the lover was the killer. Maybe Lupin checked when inspector Lestrad came in this area. He found out that he was there for 4 months, Ms. Watson was pregnant for 3 months. He asked the doctor about it. Also the picture showed a black, hidden person with blue eyes, Lestrad had blue eyes. Maybe that's how he knew it was him. It's all my assumptions btw.

Original ending: Lupin and his allies were hiding from the post box, waiting for Ms. Watson to come with the letter. The lover, as he already knew what's going to happen, will come to stop her. As expected, he came. But not to request her. He shot her right there. She died on spot. But before he got to kill himself, Lupin rushed to stop him. Ands that's how the story ends.

Now you know why the title is like that: murder for murder.

He killed him for her, then killed her for himself. Weirdest thing on planet earth is love, isn't it?

Original post: https://www.reddit.com/r/deduction/s/MhVqVHneTp

This post adds further information, as nobody was able to give the expected answer.

The questions were: Who? Why? How?

This story is narrated by the writer. And the informations were not that useful to me when I started to solve it. But who knows, if you guys need that.

Mr. Watson had a financial advisor. He, Mr. Albert, was only 27 years old. He was a kind hearted person, so he used to give Mr. Watson advices, and looked after his fortune too. While interrogating him, he said a thing, which made everything questionable. He said, “Mr. Watson lent Dr. Wood 1200 pounds about 3 months ago. He was supposed to buy a car." When we asked for the receipt, as lending 1200 pounds should have one, he said, "He never made one. He trusted Dr. Wood too much. I don't like that guy. I'm certain that he killed Mr. Watson" " What makes you think that?" "The day he killed, he took a syringe, took some medicine from a cartridge, injected Mr. Watson, and he died. Send the syringe to chemical research, you'll find poison." "But it said that it was clean." "Oh, so he swapped the cartridge before handing it to the police." "Perhaps, but tell me, how do you know what happened? You were not present at that time." "Ms. Hudson told me everything." "So you're certain that the killer is the doctor?" "Yes sir." "But why? He also threw all his medicine at the clinic for no accidental killing. He suspects that the bugler who broke into the chamber put the poison." " That's mere act, sir. I think he killed him because he wasn't able to pay up the lent money. Perhaps, Mr. Watson pressured him. So, he killed him."

We asked doctor about it. " That's bullshit, he never lent me that sum of money. Though he lent me 400 three months ago, without a receipt. I used that to go to X( a Hindu religious place, as the original characters are Hindu)." "Did you paid him up?" "Well, I didn't, not the full. He told me to not worry about it. Maybe because I was his doctor, giving him treatment." "Maybe. How many of the liver extract things cartridge do you usually have with you?" " 2. One in the emergency kit, the other at the clinic. Sometimes, he needed medicine in the middle of the night, and the clinic was too far to go, do I kept one with me. But that day, I forgot to bring it with me from the clinic. Perhaps that's how the poison got there." "You forgot?" "Well, I usually go to home after work. But that day, I came to the party. So, I didn't bring it with me. Then I got to know that someone broke in there." "So you did not forget, huh? Anyways, do you know why Mr. Albert told this lie?" "Perhaps he was trying to get profits, a lot of profits. He's not a good person. He was in jail for fraud about 6 years ago. Mr. Watson was so nice that he gave him the job."

Lupin asked inspector Lestrad to find out if Mr. Albert was in jail or not. He confirmed in the affirmative.

Now, I reread the whole 60 page novel (about 35 lines each page) to remember the small details. Now I don't think I have to spill any more information. You can now do it all right. Please answer the following: Who did? How did? Why did?

Please note that you have to answer it in this post, not he original one. It'll be a fresh, new answer I suppose.

(Btw, there is now truly nothing left. I literally summarised the whole story without leaving the details. The next post will be the answer for sure. All who will get it right will be mentioned on that post. Feel free to work in team, but just inform me about that.)

This post adds details to the previous one, so check it out first: https://www.reddit.com/r/deduction/s/Oq7mhY2AvK

These details are very minor, so I previously skipped them. But I think I should add them now. Just feeling like, I don't think it'll help you all.(Cause it didn't to me)

Dr. Wood:
A young, 26 years old doctor. Used to be in the military as an army doctor. But he had another character under the eyes, he used to be an assassin. Though he stopped working about a year ago for an incident. He has no memory of it for the trauma. He had alexithymia, so his trauma might have been a huge shock to him. Psychiatrist had his reports that he had alexithymia. He is divorced.

Inspector Lestrad: Young inspector, 28 years old, respected by all. He was very loyal to those whom he admired. Everybody loved him for his good looking-ness. He was so good looking that even men fell in love with him in some cases. His waving black hair, exquisite physique, soothing blue eyes like crystals, were amazing. He has a lot of intelligence too. He's unmarried.

Ms. Watson: She is good looking, 25 years old lady. Has a artistic hand, though she never went to any art class. Maybe she was a prodigy. Even Lupin, who didn't care about art, admired her arts. She paints like Vinci. She cheated on her husband once, and admitted it to Lupin. She's now a widow.

Mr. Hemish: He's obese, 46 years old, nicocado avocado on steroids. Jobless, so his brother, late Mr. Watson looked after him and his wife. Though Mr. Watson gave half of his wealth to him in a will, he didn't know about it before he died.

Mrs. Hemish: She only married to this man because she was froced(India, 1948, so it's common). She's now only 21 years old. She loved Ms. Watson like her older sister, and Mr. Watson like a brother-in-law.

Ms. Hudson: Worked for the family for about 6 months. Ms. Watson gave her the work. She is very obedient. 19 years old.

Late Mr. Watson: Extremely wealthy, died at 51. Loved everyone, but the most cordial one was for her wife. Didn't know that she cheated. Had no enemy, not even secret one.

That's all the information from the story, so interrogation won't help anymore. But yeah, best wishes. I'll post answer tomorrow at the same time i.e. 24 hours later. Good luck.

Also, answer in the original post, not here.

Hey y'all, I'm back with another mystery by Sharadindu Bandhyapadhay. I want as many people as possible to join, so upvote please. Also, in the original story, the detective figured out the murderer by a clue that can't be used as a clue to arrest the culprit. So, he trapped the culprit to catch the culprit ( I won't specify the gender of the culprit, as Bengali has no distinction between he and she). Also, this time, I'll use pseudo names too. And I'll write as Watson did for Sherlock, in the writer's pov.

17th March, 1948. Lupin(i.e. the detective) and I were drinking tea at Mr. Potter's house. He invited us to have dinner tomorrow. To of course we accepted it. But that very moment, inspector Lestrad came with an invitation. Mr. Watson was ill for a long, and now he's kinda well. So he arranged a party tomorrow. We were upset as we missed the invitation, but Mr. Potter called him and asked to bring ourselves. And thus, we got the permission to meet this awesome man.

18th March, 1948. We're now at his manor. There were a lot of known, unknown people there. Let's meet them one by one.

1. Mr. Watson: Our host and a very cherished person.
2. Mrs. Watson: A very VERY beautiful lady.
3. Ms. Hudson: Mrs. Watson's servant. Widowed.
4. Mr. Hemish: Mr. Watson's younger brother. Very obese.
5. Dr. Wood: A very skilled doctor. Family doctor of this family. Mr. Watson was under his treatment. Has a clinic.
6. Mrs. Hemish: Very young and generous lady.

And many more. But inspector Lestrad hadn't arrived yet. 7. Inspector Lestrad: he is an astonishing unmarried inspector. He has a very nice blue eye. His hair is too good. I wish I had a physique like him. He arrived as we were leaving. He was in his uniform and said to Dr. Wood ,"Someone broke into your clinic. When you left?" Dr. Wood, in disbelief, answered,"Well, at 7 o'clock sharp. Well, there is nothing in that chamber to steal from, why would someone broke into it?" Inspector answered, "Don't know. What was there?" "Only a couple of pound I suppose." answered doctor.

19th March, 1948. Something bad happened. Mr. Watson died a couple of hours ago. Lupin and I rushed there. The body is still as it was. Doctor was also there. Lupin asked what happened. Inspector answered, "He wasn't fully healed. So sometimes doctor has to come to give him a special injection. Is once per week. Today he was very cheerful. But when doctor injected the medicine, he suddenly started to mumbling and died. I have the cartridge of the medicine. I will send it to chemical research centre." Lupin interrogated the doctor, and he said, "I every Sunday come here to give him this medicine. As usual I came here. My usual medicine bag stays in my clinic. This one stays in my home. I take it, come here, inject him, and then go to my clinic. Today was different though. As I closed my clinic yesterday at 7 o'clock, I forgot to bring my home kit and left it there. So I went to that clinic and took my medicine pack and came here. I don't know what happened and how happened. Inspector, arrest me if you want. I should have been careful. I have murdered someone." "Don't worry " Lupin said, " we are here to investigate this matter. So until we find some lead, you will be ok. So don't worry. Go back to your clinic, if we need you we will come. It could be that the person who broke into your clinic put poison on your medicine. So you are not the killer yet" Lupin started his investigation. Here's everyone's testimony.

Mrs.(Now Ms) Watson: He was a dear person to me. Even though he was about twice the age of me, I love him so much. I have nothing to say now. Mr. Hemish: He was my brother. As I am jobless, he gave me a part of his wealth. But why would I poison him, who killed the dark who lays golden egg everyday? Mrs. Hemish: I say the same thing that my husband said. After that testimony we went home. Before going there we stop at the police station. We ask about the chemical report. He said he will bring it to us in the evening.

The report says that there was no poison in that cartridge.

20th March, 1948. We went to Ms. Watson's home. Imagine how much a husband love her wife that he literally made a separate house for her and for her hobbies. We went to see the pictures she drew. Although I did not want to go, Lupin insisted. Well now I don't think that I made the wrong decision. Her pictures might cost a million. If not I will give her a million to give those to me. Those beautiful pictures astonished me. But the most interesting was the long and big picture. I wish I could set the picture right there but I can't. So let me describe it. Here we see a lady having bath in the river. Maybe the picture is depicting the old classic Bengali era. We can also see, if we put our attention there, that there is a person hiding behind the trees watching that lady. So we cannot see the space of that person, we can surely see how beautifully he was drawn. Do the shares made the whole body of that person dark, his eyes were soothing like stars. Like blue stars of the constellation, don't know the name. Those blue colour for the I wear picked so thoughtfully that I myself is amazed. I as a poet, can write a whole poetry about this scenery. Anyways let's get back to investigation. Lupin first asked Ms. Watson if she loved someone other than her husband. Answer was a bit shady, "I don't love anyone other than my late husband. I don't think I will be able to love anyone other than him. I made a mistake and I don't want it to repeat again." Lupin asked her to elaborate her answer. She suddenly started to have a panic attack and that's why we left. We went to the doctor's chamber. Doctor asked us if we are here to arrest him. Lupin ignored it and asked, "I don't think that you are the killer. Because a killer won't let them be caught. So just be normal." "That means you are not suspecting me, right?" asked the doctor. "Of course, I am still suspecting you. But you don't need to worry as I don't suspect you as much as you think." After a bit of unnecessary talking, Lupin asked, "doctor, I noticed that Ms. Watson was acting kind of weird. Do you suspect anything?" "Well yeah she might be pregnant." " So you saw that too?" " Of course I am a doctor after all." " But don't you think that a person who was 60 years old can make a baby? Mr Watson was 60 years old." " Well, it's true that is very rare for a 60 years old person to make a child. But it can be possible though." " But I still think that that child belongs to someone else. Whatever bye." We left.

Inspector Gregory was our best friend seems we started this detective works. Lupin asked him for a little help. He told me that he knows who is the culprit. He also some how mades Ms. Watson confess that she cheated on her husband. That's why he made her to write the name of the culprit in a paper and put it in an envelope. He asked her to put this invelope in the post box which is right in front of the house.

When I ask about the culprit, Lupin said that the culprit is among us. But I have no solid proof that he is the culprit. That's why I will trap him. Thekel fit now knows that Ms. Watson will reveal his name through a letter. So he will come and stop her from putting that letter. We will be hiding nearby and catch him red handed. I asked him that why he needed help from inspector Gregory when he could have got it from inspector Lestrad. He answered that when he share this story to Gregory, he showed interest in this matter and that's the reason. I asked him what is no one shows up. He said that if no one showed up, then we will automatically no that the culprit is in fact Ms. Watson.

Now, you guys have to find who is the culprit and what made our detective no that he/she is the culprit. I will post the rest of the story in the next post where I answer this mystery. Also it does not have any loop holes that you can exploit to make something other than what the original answer is.

If you want to interrogate someone, give me DMs. As I am student I might not be available before evening tomorrow (GMT+6:30).

Good luck fellas.

Edit: Added a second part. Answer in the original post though. https://www.reddit.com/r/deduction/s/JRMzJNM4vy

3rd part: https://www.reddit.com/r/deduction/s/uUisrOEeTE

Solution:

The boy was a young prodigy who traveled from Japan to the UK to study for his first semester. And he’s currently new to the country—why?

He was a young prodigy:

In the story, we are introduced to two characters: Billy, a man, and the boy, whose identity we don’t know. This separation in language indicates a difference in age, suggesting that a younger individual was addressing someone older. But why assume the boy is exceptionally smart? Couldn’t he have just moved to the UK with his parents and asked a teacher in a grade appropriate for his age? No, first of all, the boy is most likely in a university since school for adolescents and teenagers doesn’t start at 4:30 pm. Secondly, no teacher is so casual that they would respond merely with gestures, nor would a student typically meet a teacher in just a random room. If it were an office, the text would likely indicate that.

This leads us to conclude that the boy must have traveled to the UK, and Billy is his classmate. There was also a mention that he returns to the room they were staying in, further corroborating on a shared room.

Why could this be in the UK:

To start, there’s the reference to a "biscuit bag." "Biscuit" is the British word for what Americans call "cookies," which suggests a British setting. Additionally, there’s the use of "am-pm" rather than military time. Note that Australia would have also been a correct solution, given the evidences.

Why could the boy be from Japan?

This part is more complex. Billy responded to the boy’s question, "In how many hours will the class start?" by gesturing with his fingers instead of speaking. This implies that Billy showed a certain number using his fingers. However, there was a misunderstanding since the boy arrived at the classroom three hours early; there had been a one-hour gap before he arrived. This suggests that the boy mistook a gesture indicating "4" for "1." In which country might this confusion arise due to differences in finger-counting gestures? That country would be Japan.

good luck!

Lateral thinking puzzle:

"Excuse me billy", says a boy to the man listening to loud music while eating his biscuit bag at the standard lunch time. "Might I trouble you to ask in how many hours the class starts", the boy asked. Billy gestures, but didn't voice a word.

1 hrs later

He arrives to the classroom door but it was locked, he then went to meet with Billy in the room, they were staying in, and told him when the class was.

"it won't be in another 3 hours or so, at like 4:30 pm", Billy responded.

Where can the boy be from? anything more you can say about him?

Think of it as being real time, will reveal answer in 24 hours.

It was a story by one of the best subcontinental author, Sharadindu Bandhapadhay. In his series of Byomkesh Baksi, this story is called shaila rahasya. But I will change the name as it was in my post. (I really wished his stories were translated in English for huge audience. Only 5 among 32 are translated.)

The original solution was like this:

After finding out that Albert is actually a criminal, William wanted to take all the money, even his share. So he ands his wife made a plan. As they got the news that Albert got caught, he might come here to hide, or to take money as he has no illegal money left. As anticipated, he came in midnight. Mrs. Hudson used sleeping medications secretly in there maid's and servant's food, so they do not wake up. Then Albert and William got outside and started fighting. And William killed him. After that, he exchanged the clothes and threw his body from the hill, as there is no way his body can be detected. He faked his death and made Albert, the dead person, the culprit. After that, he came to place B and started to live with Hudson. And when they knew that they were being interrogated by detectives, they flew away. She showered late to get a widow look. (Maybe Hindu culture, not sure)

This story for some reason has a lot of flaws. Not expected from an author like Sharadindu. So, here's the most logical reasoning I came up. Match your answer here.

Like the way she bathed in cold weather, it's very likely she can handle cold. Why not warm water you ask? Because it wasn't a common thing in India back in 1940s. Only very rich people had this thing. Also William can't handle cold at all, as mentioned in the story. So no way he took that body out on cold night to dispose. So, both Mr. and Mrs. killed Albert, then changed clothes, maybe destroyed his face,( in case the tigers never eat the face) then Hudson took out the body and disposed it. So, both of them are the murderer. Separate beds, so I suppose they are no longer spouse ( it's an Indian story, and all married Hindu woman can be identified by her look, so to look like a widow, the had to get a divorce. Maybe that got it before killing.) so the servant is William. Why detective didn't recognise him? Because he never saw him.

So, Hudson and William are the killers. Motive is money. Victim is Albert.

Feel free to ask any questions.

The following case is collected from a really famous crime writer in my native language. But I will not reveal it because I do not want any of you to find out the criminal by reading the main story. I will also change the name. This story is a monologue. So the reader is the detective.

I visited place A ( it’s like Darjeeling) last month. One of my friend suggested me to visit the hotel on top of the mountain. It was December, so it was really cold there. But still I visited there.

The hotel owner was really gentle. Even though in winter nobody comes here, and he took all the rooms furnitures in store room, he offered me to stay in the master’s bedroom. Actually, he bought the hotel a month ago and it was a huge story. Now told me that.

“Two years ago, Albert and William bought this place and made a hotel here, as it is really famous during summer. Albert put money, William and his wife Hudson worked to make the hotel what it is.

"Albert was a gold smuggler, but William came to know it after a year and a half. So, he wanted to stop working with him. Thus, he decided to sell the property. By the way, Albert mostly came here to take the profit every 6 months.

"On a very cold day about a month ago, I visited the hotel, as William was my college friend. He offered me to buy the hotel, so I bought it. I paid about 400000 in advance and promised to pay the rest of the money on the day I'll take the hotel. And suddenly, I heard a tiger growling. Then William said,"There was a tiger family living down the hill. Though the have eaten human, you don't have to worry. They can never climb up that high." I still remember joking that I wanted to see those, but he said that no way cause it was already evening and he cannot handle cold at all. Then I left.

" The day before I bought, at midnight, Albert showed up there to take his half from him, as he got caught smuggling. As all maids were asleep, Mrs. Hudson thought to make him food. But while cooking, she heard a loud noise outside and rushed there to see no one. She came back to the hotel and saw no one there, also the money is lost. She reported to the police. The next day, police rescued a dead body from the bottom of the hill. And it was unrecognisable as the body was already eaten by those tigers. But the clothes were William's. So, police is now trying to find the culprit, Albert to arrest him. And now Ms. Hudson sold it to me and left for her hometown, in place B.

" From then, this hotel is under my eyes. It happened a month ago. You can sleep in the master bedroom, as it is still intact even after the previous owners left." And the hotel owner concluded his story.

While putting your stuff in the cupboard, you found an address written in a brown paper in place B. You mailed your partner, who live in place B, to go and investigate. He sent you the following mail.

"Dear, it is a big mansion. Though Ms. Hudson lives here alone, with his servant only. He is quite old and has a rural accent. He told me to wait for her. When she came, she was looking like she just took a shower. It was quite odd that someone showed in evening. But she was completely gorgeous. Maybe I can re-marry her. Also, she told what you told. So nothing to add here. But she did mention that Albert was a very bad guy and he has 3 secret wives around the country. Albert asked her to leave William and marry him. Also, I brought a friend of mine. He never entered, but he peaked through one of the windows and saw two separate beds and the servant was trying to open a small locker. And that's all I can give you."

You, the reader, now have to solve the following: who and why killed William? Where is the culprit now?

I'll reveal the answer in a separate post. I'll give the writer answer, as well as mine. Do not think that our answers are different, they can be the same. Also please, if you read the story, don't spoill.

Also, I now noticed that I forgot to mention the time. It was 1940s. Pardon me for it. It's really hard to write huge story from memory.

How to know if someone is doing archery? What should i look for in his fingers, neck or any other part of the body?

About a year ago, an accident in real life led me to an interesting coincidence that became a vital clue in a centuries old case. I had an overdose of baking soda; more of an extreme reaction than the amount. While recovering from the experience, I studied what it had done to me and how it could have progressed.

Long story short, the symptoms and progression of symptoms of baking soda OD mimics almost word for words several dozen descriptions of victims of Aqua Tofana.

I can explain the delivery method, how it was created, why it only affected men, and why women were accused, including the drunk monk scandal. The problem I have is that in order to recreate the exact environment, I need to know the weather of the Italian peninsula 1550 to 1630. I believe it's crucial to explain the why and how the baking soda was eaten. I also need to know the nature of temperature in relation to the baking soda.

In a really short version, it never existed as we understood it.

It was binary "Toxin" of hearth ash and meat. It was common practice to sprinkle hearth ash in the food. The wood burned in the hearth grew in salty soil. Any plant grown in salty soil becomes soda bicarbonate( baking soda) ash when burned. The men died because their intake of meat contaminated them with intestinal parasites more than women. This was partly because the presence of arsenic was from face cream, and cleaning products made their bodies resistant to parasites accidently. The lead came from lead acetate glaze used by the cookery used.

The weather information would help me learn how thick the wood was and why it only affected people for a brief time.

Forgot to mention that the description of Aqua Tofana is also explained by the Ash. Salty wood ash when mixed into water produces the same description of viscosity and appearance.

Am I really needing the weather information? It's more of proving it %99.99 vs. %80 %

Looking to dive into observation, deduction, and reading people. Any good YouTube playlists or blogs for this?

A famous artist was found dead in his art gallery. It can be a murder or an accident.

Deadbody: It had a small damage at the front of the head and it seemed he got hit by the sharp corner of his table. It also had a bump in its left side of the belly, seeming he accidentally fall on it. There was no pther signs. He was not poisoned.

Surroundings: It was his art room and he was drawing a picture of him drinking a cup of tea. The art was almost finnished. There was a cup of tea on his table but it was untouched. Not even a single drop was taken from it. Under it, a note said, " Art emits life."

There were three people there in the the art gallery that day. Let's hear what they jave to say.

The assistant/manager of the artist: I was in the kitchen to brew some tea for him and a guest. The guest was one of his rivals in this district. He came here to ask for collaboration with him. By the time I brought the tea, he already made the negotiations and left. I saw an agreement on his table. I left the cup of tea and left immediately. After some moments, I heard a noice and ran to discover his dead body. Q: Do you have any art experience? A: No.

The rival artist: I came here to negotiate with him about our collaboration. At first I thought he will not agree. But to my surprise, he agreed and signed my agreement. There was a photocopy machine, so I copied it and took the original copy and left. Q: Why did you want to collaborate? A: Thought his fame will gain some notice on my works.

The guard : Yes, I saw the rival artist come in at about 12 o'clock and he left after about 10 to 12 minutes. And then suddenly, the assistant rushed towards me and told me to guard the place cautiously because the artist is dead. Then she ran and brought you, officer.

That is all there was, so I will not be able to answer any questions. Let me know what you think.

Edit:

Well, sorry to everyone for not giving the answer at the intended time. I somehow lost my account and was trying to get it back. It looks like I did.

Btw, the answer is, the assistant/manager. Its because the rival left early with a happy deal, so why would he axe on his own foot. The guard was out all along, guarding the gallery. So if we rule them out, only the assistant is left.

Also, if the cup spilled the tea, we could have make an assumption that he, the artist fell sick and somehow hit his head on the table and died by accident. But as it is not the case, then the assistant is only candidate for murderer.

Graphology is the study of handwriting as, human psychology has a huge impact on handwriting, apparently and handwriting is like fingerprints, different and unique from person to person.

Should I study it?

Many people gave me this advice that I should try to observe people and try to to tell as much as I can. Now my question is, what to look for. Imagine there is a person I never saw. And I am trying to deduce that stranger. What and how should I do it? And how can I confirm if that was accurate? He or she is a stranger after all.

Yesterday, I was reading a crime novel where our protagonist got to meet a new side character, who self studied to be a detective and after taking the exam to get licence, he got above 90% of detectives. I was wondering if it is truly possible to self study to be a detective. And if so, then how can I self study to be a detective? It is my passion to be a part time detective since I was young. How can I improve my deduction? How can I deduce strangers ouyside? What to look for? Thanks in advance.

Well, the question is self explainetory ( maybe my spelling is wrong, corret me if it is). In detective novels of tv serieses, sometimes the detective gets some clue that are not shown to viewers. But in a game, where the viewer is the detective, there is no way thet can happen. So, I want some suggestions. Thanks.

Can you also deduct people in person? I'm still a student so I think this is a good place to practice this, the teachers for example move around a lot so it's not very difficult to pay attention to them, but most of the time I can't deduce anything. or at least nothing circumstantial, whether they are left-handed or right-handed, level of physical activity, relationship, etc. How can I go a little further?
