we tried to crack a murder case🕵🏻‍♂️ solve the Decagon House Murders with us 🕵🏻‍♀️

[@jenn9049]

" he's decaGONE , um okay this why i don't make videos alone " HAS ME DYING

[@tazeemn_]

“sending them to god's domain” killed me. 😭😂

[@nikolaiquack8548]

This is the unhinged sibling quality content I live for

[@c_r_i_ss_y]

Imagine these two doing a true-crime docuseries for some major network. I mean, look at the professional, dimly lighted setup, drinks included. Love it

[@clarisseannledesma102]

THE DETECTIVE DUO IS BACK!! AND I'M HERE FOR IT

[@jeeranko3359]

Now my aesthetic is dark macadamia😂😂😂

[@buketmerve]

5:36 the tortured poets’ society??? Same. It’s not dead poets society anymore. Thank you mama swift🙂‍↕️

[@imWillJ]

read the title too fast thought it said : we tried crack.

[@alexjames7144]

If you want to do another Agatha Christie, Cards on The Table is a great choice. Without spoiling it, I promise it would make the most dramatic and wild solving video.

[@PatrikOrjes]

Who needs Sherlock and Watson when you have this duo? 😂 This was so much fun and I need this series to continue!

[@redgiant970]

You know what? Ben is the goat, most brothers would think it's cringe asf top have a sister that did youtube but Ben just full sends it and embraces the fun.

[@bookswithcoffees_]

Love the creativity put into this series!! 🕵🏻‍♀️🕵🏻 Let’s solve this!

[@pageturner242]

the mullet goes crazy

[@corinna_maybe]

Your best BROduction yet 😂 The B in b-roll now officially stands for Ben.

[@nissasbookcorner]

i love these videos they remind me of when u would make stupid videos with ur sibling as a kid but way more dignified and thought out 😭😭

[@thanosmat]

For the next mystery, you all need some John Dickson Carr (the name of one of the characters in the Decagon House Murders), the master of fair mysteries. The Hollow Man (or The Three Coffins) it is a must. Will be a very entertaining watch.

[@CarrieBarrieintheDesert]

You two crack me up!! The banter, the chemistry lol😂 Ok but the end "we'll catch you" The boat scene 😂 When Ben says "hwhhacked!" 😂 Oh geez. That was fun.

[@minnanki]

25:24 "I don't know what you're doing but stop" - i died laughing thank you emma and ben for this sibling detective energy!!

[@DeadDetectiveSociety]

I never once thought about the idea that someone would actually get into the trouble of going back and forth from the island to the mainland. But I suspected Van, since he was the one who was actually capable of bringing kerosene cans, poisons, etc to the island (but he was sick, so that caught me off guard), and I also suspected that Chiori has a boyfriend. Never connected the two though. I manage to solve the murder of Nakamura Seiji, his wife, etc. I remember thinking, if I assume that the gardener's dead, murdered, then that means that Seiji's death was the only death that could be caused by suicide. "And Then There Were None" gave me this idea. One more thing: Ellery is annoying OMG. Had I not listened to his theories I probably would've solve this book. I love that you're branching out, solving other murder mystery stories from other authors. But, if you ever consider solving another Agatha Christie's book again, I suggest "Five Little Pigs", this is the most solvable Agatha Christie murder, everything you need to know is said, you just need to piece it together. The Labyrinth House Murder is releasing this October, please make a video solving it with your brother again.

[@magda_mf]

I second Five Little Pigs!

[@Mondo_panico]

The author gived us a huge hint with the name of the killer. SPOILER: Morisu + Van = Van Morisu = Van Morrison

[@DeadDetectiveSociety]

@@Mondo_panico Um... I don't know who Van Morrison is. Can you explain? :)

[@Mondo_panico]

@@DeadDetectiveSociety yes, of course. Van Morrison is a well known Irish singer from the 70/80s, if you don’t know who he is try to google “moondance”. In my opinion the author choose the name Morisu for the true identity of the killer just because sound similar to Morrison, so that we can make a subliminal connection between the two names, Van and Morisu (try to repeat them fast).

[@DeadDetectiveSociety]

@@Mondo_panico Oohh! Thank you for explaining it. I thought the author was trying to do something like, "among the students who have nicknames based off of famous mystery writers, there's one that is named after a singer instead of a mystery writer".

[@joobydoobydoo]

Your brother CRACKS me up emmie, I can definitely see you two are related cause he’s as much of a goof ball as you’re sarcastic/witty 😂❤ honestly love you both, I’m having such a fun time watching you ❤❤

[@hunterghobadi1269]

The third book in Ayasuji's Bizzare House Murders (The Labyrinth House Murders) is being published on October 10th! Nakamura Seji has built many houses, so each entry in the series deal with a different house. You guys already read the second book, Mill House Murders, and frankly I think they get better and better. Translations take a while but Pushkin Press is doing great work. EDIT: For recommendation, Ayasuji's friend, Soji Shimada wrote his own mystery series. Shimada also wrote the forward to Decagon House, introducing the concept of Honkaku mysteries. Ayasuji named his detective in the books after Soji. The detectives name: Kyoshi Shimada is a mix between a main character in Shimada's books (Kyoshi) and Shimada's own name. Of his works, only two have been translated. The Tokyo Zodiac Murders is the first one (and I think the best). It was written to be solved by the reader, and all the clues are there. I think The Tokyo Zodiac Murders has the most clever solution to any mystery book I have ever read, and I can confirm it is possible to figure out, the author even tells you when all the clues have been given to you. So please, reading The Tokyo Zodiac Murders. I am sure you both will have a lot of fun. In fact, it is written like two amateur detectives trying to solve a case that has stumped everyone for decades. So it fits the video style you guys have.

[@Blondie101010100]

Ellery is Ellery Queen, a detective from novels set in the 40s after World War II. It was turned into a TV series in the mid 70's. Emma, you and your bro, Ben put so much effort into these videos. Well done 👏

[@WhiteRaven696]

13:40, Ooh, I would LOVE this house. 7 full sized-rooms and a giant main hall that could serve as both living room and dining room? The one bathroom is a total chop, however. I would need three levels to this house, with the second floor just being ENTIRELY bathrooms that connect to their respective rooms on the ground floor, and the basement floor being all kinds of activities, like a theater, a sauna, a gym, a pool, a bowling alley. Ooh, it would be so fun.

[@maryhornsby9441]

The Duo has returned! Love the cut scenes! A+ acting!!!

[@Kyle4k9]

Emma and Ben together again! So much fun. Great job, both of you. Thanks!

[@paumartineztabero8322]

Fun fact: There's actually a manga that adapts this book (I haven't read It, so I don't really know how faithful It is to the book) of the same name. It was made by the author of "Another".

[@flaviadn]

At this point 29:18 I was expecting the swimming pool to explode, it would have been so dramatic 😂😂😂

[@teapotJ]

So happy to see the detective duo back! Love this series

[@muhammadzaydahmed3218]

Hii Emma, iam enthralled to see u and ur bro continue solving the murder mystery series. I wanna say I absolutely love and cherish ur vlogs and it's a kind of a stress buster. Lots of 💕❤.

[@dianaayt]

Oh im so excited to watch this! But i already wanted to notice that THE MULLET IS LOOKING PRETTY PRETTY GREAT MA FRIEND

[@antelopea1781]

You two are great together. Fantastic video. Fam vibes are immaculate

[@mariama8421]

i adore these detective videos with your brother, its just such fun to watch and the effort shows

[@beckie8168]

I never want this series to end 😂❤

[@kaizen2049]

My favourite series is back!!! Time to drop everything & watch!!!!!

[@StashaA.]

These videos are pure joy! 👏I would love to see them as a monthly series. 😄

[@sojajunge]

i love love love these videos, please don't stop making them, your energy is infectious! ❤

[@ester797]

Just watched your last vlog and now this!! Love the energy, sleuthing, and creative choices. We are being spoiled! 💕🧐

[@miuralfernandes3013]

Emma, thank you for putting so much effort into your vlog with your brother. I read "The Decagon House Murders" because you recommended it in your previous vlogs, and I absolutely loved it. Thank you for always giving such great book recommendations!

[@ancsl4006]

Omg you don’t know how much I have been dying for this video. This just gave me motivation to do everything right now.

[@magda_mf]

Love the reenactments 😂😂 The best detective duo to exist!

[@bhavnasultana]

Really love these videos

[@katherinenickerson9955]

The way I picked up this book and 2 days later this video dropped😂😂😂😂😂. I had to binge the book to make sure I wouldn't get spoiled. This was so much fun

[@MarisaAndChew]

Would love to see you two do "Cain's Jawbone by Edward Powys Mathers". You'll need to setup a big board but it would be a good series watching you two work it out!

[@haerhawk]

The detectives are back to give Holmes & Watson a run for their money

[@vitoriar8753]

just as i sit down to drink my coffee 🙏🙏🙏🙏 this couldn't have been more perfect TY SOOOOO MUCH these are my favorite videos from you!!

[@Cubehead27]

Yay they're back!!! I love these videos so much, so excited to watch this one

[@muhammadzaydahmed3218]

" In the meantime don't do any crime" was a nice one Emma.😂 It seems hard to solve 'This' authors novels. I have tried solving Agatha Christie's ones and I usually (7/10) think of the possibilities (1 of which is right) but the ending is always shocking it's like u think of it but, just don't stay with that theory. By the way, as always U and ur brother really Steal the Show. ❤

[@teapotJ]

As we’re on Japanese authors I suggest Matsumoto Seicho-Tokyo express (points and lines), Point zero. Edogawa Ranpo is also a good one, would love to hear your thoughts on more Japanese detective novels❤

[@brianaprice7555]

I feel like I’ve never realized how much you guys look alike before this video. omg he has your face!!!!😂

[@pendragon2012]

Love when the Detectives are in town!

[@thewritingsilhouette6983]

this was so cozy and fun! I loved the ambience and dim atmosphere; an all time favorite cozy mystery of mine is A Murder Is Announced By Agatha Christie- I listened to the audiobook by Rosemary Leech- it was my first agatha christie and my favorite of the 20 or so I've read by her, it has clues and is solvable, I found the characters and the town of chipping Cleghorn to be very lovable

[@morganecachia6501]

Had the greatest time once again ! You two are the funniest

[@halapyrolock7210]

A NEW episode of The DETECTIVE DUO!! 🤩😃 Been waiting for it 😭🥹✨❤️

[@MsGloomyLamp]

Please come back soon, you two are iconic!

[@pranavnarayandatta6738]

I definitely need more of this , why don't you try The Hollow Man by John Dickson Carr next time, I remember loving it much much more than any agatha christie. Ps it was also selected as the best locked room mystery of all time.

[@circleofleaves2676]

"The furnace and finger" could also be the name of the carriage scene of Bridgerton S3. IYKYK hehe.

[@Caatje-op3jy]

Emma: "This is difficult so I'm gonna let Ben take it." Ben: *does not take it*

[@miriam2526]

Aaah this is the perfect treat after a long day at work! Thank you so much, I love the detective duo! ❤

[@CollinHeist20]

Yesss I loved the original video! That's how I found your channel.

[@Lvsl_iftdv]

I don't know if you've done it before but The Tokyo Zodiac Murders by Soji Shimada would be super fun! You're supposed to be able to figure it out by yourself but there are multiple plotwists so you might only guess a part of it (like me).

[@sofijajoksimovic418]

Aaahhhhh I've been waiting for this for monthsssss Super excited to watch!!!!

[@momentomomento3932]

i am currently reading this book. Cant wait to finish it to watch the whole video

[@tomjohnson4922]

would love to see you two tackle some Raymond Chandler, either The Long Goodbye or The Big Sleep, or some Vera Caspary's Laura.

[@ADaisy97]

I want dark macadamia shirts

[@CatherineLambert-fz7pd]

Your brother is so sweet 😂

[@gcskinner]

The pool scene 😂😂

[@LE-wc1dr]

I'm laughing so hard at the two of you... Love it.

[@sofieeeeeeeeeeeeeee]

Yay, my favorite detective duo is back!! 7 minutes in and it´s already so funny Ben: some may say that judgement outside the court of law mat be God´s jugdement, therefore he would be sending them to Gods domain😂 Ben: Playboy Carr, almost blayboy carti Emma: He´s not really playing though, he´s very unsuccesful

[@rondoflicflac]

The best duo ever!!!

[@mags31]

The Red House Mystery by A.A. Milne A Three Investigators Mystery (especially the dancing dinosaur one, pretty sure it goes all over the place within the book) by Alfred Hitchcock. A younger readin audience, but they're so good! Also, what is in the glasses that y'all are eating?

[@ReadingNymph]

This was amazing, I love the pool moments 😂

[@Dan-dg9pi]

In the tradition of the great police detective. Like the great Inspector Clouseau.

[@toyo.saketoba]

I havent read any of Higashino Keigo’s mystery novels but I did read Miracles of Namiya General Store. I would love to see you two solve his detective books!

[@kevinschultz5678]

Young fella's got a nice pleasant Tom Holland quality. And Emma, sweet n funny as usual. Enjoyable video!

[@cindyurban150]

Although this was confusing to me,It was very entertaining. You are both great actors !

[@gretchen6458]

I love these videos so much!!

[@mn9885]

The way they look like TWINS with the mustaches 😂

[@missdevine9238]

Now i want a book about a detective sibling duo.

[@Antiloottioy]

If the two of you do this again around Christmas, may I recommend trying to solve the Christmas Murder game by Alexandra Benedict

[@spiral32]

AHHH SO EXCITED I READ THIS LAST WEEK OMG

[@whereisawesomeness]

If you’re looking to do another one of these, I recently heard of a book called The Seventh Function of Language that sounds pretty interesting. Apparently it’s a kind of satirical, “postmodern” take on the murder mystery, where the victim is Roland Barthes

[@alexjames7144]

Spoiler: the butler did it I'm lying, I have no idea who did it

[@sleepypapercrowns]

You two are HILARIOUS!!

[@hyemiyah]

oh yay! my sunday morning serotonin boost ❤

[@nl3064]

Ellery as in Ellery Queen! How can you possibly not know that?

[@victoria3045]

the detectives are BACK

[@dreamimdreaming]

I laugh so much with these videos you guys are awesome ❤😂somehow it always makes me a little sad too because I wish I had a closer relationship with my sister but we don’t really get along

Ah yes my favorite genre, dark macadamia 🤣🤣

[@wavesandflows]

ooh i was just revisiting old detective/agatha christie episodes of yrs these past 2 days... so happy to see thisss!!!!! also r u guys twins??

[@punipunistuff]

absolute comedy gold

[@Bia-po9pn]

These videos are my favorite!

[@mementomori8930]

I think the translation kinda lessen the twist in the book. Morisu, is not a common japanese name, so when people read the book and see Mo-ri-su in japanese characters, they would assume that is his nickname because Maurice LeBlanc is very popular in japan from his Lupin novels. So there was never a though that we never got his nickname making Maurice =/= Van, when actually mo-ri-su really meant Morisu . In English however, we see that it's already spelled Morisu, which make us think of that as his real name right away and left wondering what's his nickname. I think the translator should've spelled his name in english, Maurice from the beginning, and probably add a sentence explaining to the police at the end, "it actually Morisu"

[@imjoo]

You should try The Inugami Curse by Yokomizo Seishi. That's a good one to try and solve.

[@rine6740]

u have to try Im Thinking of Ending Things by Iain Reid. or Foe

[@artisan1800]

God, I love these videos!!!!😅😅😅😅😂😂😂😂😂😊😊😊😊

It’s incredible how much you look alike, can’t believe a joke about disguise hasn’t been done yet 😅
