Un examen attentif sous les trois tertres où étaient semées les légumineuses n'a donné aucun résultat, si ce n'est qu'on y a trouvé en creusant, les corps s'appareillant aux têtes de la cuvette. Mais pas le moindre haricot, ni gros, ni moyen, ni petit. Découragés par un échec de cette envergure, les fermiers se seraient-ils enlevé la vie? Flic étudia soigneusement l'hypothèse d'un suicide collectif. Des suicidés, les statistiques sont là pour le prouver, se coupent la tête de la nuque à la gorge. Les appendices ainsi sectionnés tombent face première dans le réceptacle prévu à cet effet et on les retrouve pile. Or, les têtes Binoche vous regardaient droit dans les yeux. D'ailleurs, le fait que les corps eussent été enterrés affaiblissait encore la thèse du suicide sans pourtant la détruire complètement. --[Memento].
