The Adventure of the Beryl Coronet
Capítulo 11, Página 19
"It
is
on
the
dressing
table."
Sherlock
Holmes
picked
it
up
and
opened
the
bureau.
"It
is
a
quiet
lock,"
he
said.
"No
wonder
it
did
not
wake
you.
This
case
has
the
coronet.
We
must
look
at
it."
He
opened
the
case
and
took
out
the
diadem.
He
put
it
on
the
table.
It
was
very
beautiful,
and
the
thirty-six
stones
were
the
best
I
had
ever
seen.
One
side
of
the
coronet
was
cracked,
where
a
corner
with
three
gems
had
been
torn
away.
"Now,
Mr.
Holder,"
said
Holmes,
"here
is
the
corner
that
matches
the
missing
one.
Can
you
break
it
off?"
The
banker
stepped
back,
shocked.
"I
would
never
try,"
he
said.
"Then
I
will."
Holmes
tried
hard
to
break
it,
but
nothing
happened.
"I
feel
it
move
a
little,"
he
said,
"but
I
am
very
strong,
and
it
would
take
me
a
long
time
to
break
it.
An
ordinary
man
could
not
do
it.
What
would
happen
if
I
did
break
it,
Mr.
Holder?
It
would
sound
like
a
gunshot.
Did
this
happen
near
your
bed,
and
you
heard
nothing?"
"I
do
not
know
what
to
think.
It
is
all
confusing
to
me."
"But
maybe
it
will
become
clearer
as
we
go.
What
do
you
think,
Miss
Holder?"
