"Then
what
are
they?
Who
is
K.
K.
K.,
and
why
does
he
follow
this
family?"
Sherlock
Holmes
closed
his
eyes.
He
put
his
elbows
on
his
chair.
"A
good
thinker,"
he
said,
"can
see
one
fact
and
know
many
things.
Like
Cuvier
could
tell
about
an
animal
from
one
bone.
We
do
not
know
everything
yet.
But
we
can
solve
problems
with
our
minds.
We
need
to
use
all
facts
we
know.
This
means
knowing
many
things.
Even
now,
not
everyone
knows
everything
useful
for
their
work.
I
try
to
know
all
I
can.
You
once
said
what
I
know."
"Yes,"
I
said,
laughing.
"It
was
a
funny
list.
Philosophy,
astronomy,
and
politics
were
zero.
Botany
was
mixed.
Geology
was
good
for
mud-stains
near
town.
Chemistry
was
strange.
Anatomy
was
not
clear.
Crime
stories
and
music
were
special.
You
played
violin,
boxed,
fought
with
swords,
and
used
cocaine.
That
was
my
list."
Holmes
smiled.
"Yes,"
he
said,
"a
man
should
keep
useful
things
in
his
mind.
The
rest
can
stay
in
books.
For
this
case,
we
need
all
our
skills.
Please
give
me
the
American
Encyclopaedia,
letter
K.
Thank
you.
Let's
think.
Colonel
Openshaw
left
America
for
a
strong
reason.
Old
men
do
not
change
easily.
He
liked
to
be
alone
in
England.
Maybe
he
feared
something.
We
think
he
left
America
because
of
fear.
The
letters
he
got
were
scary.
Did
you
see
the
postmarks?"
"The
first
was
from
Pondicherry,
the
second
from
Dundee,
and
the
third
from
London."
"From
East
London.
What
do
you
think?"
"They
are
all
ports.
The
writer
was
on
a
ship."
"Good.
We
have
a
clue.
The
writer
was
probably
on
a
ship.
Now,
look
at
the
time.
Seven
weeks
passed
from
Pondicherry
to
the
threat.
In
Dundee,
it
was
only
three
or
four
days.
What
does
this
tell
you?"
