"Then
what
are
they?
Who
is
K.
K.
K.,
and
why
does
he
follow
this
poor
family?"
Sherlock
Holmes
closed
his
eyes
and
put
his
elbows
on
the
chair.
"A
good
thinker,"
he
said,
"can
see
one
fact
and
understand
everything
from
it.
Like
how
Cuvier
could
describe
an
animal
from
just
one
bone.
We
have
not
used
our
reason
enough.
Problems
can
be
solved
by
thinking,
not
just
by
looking.
To
be
the
best,
a
thinker
must
use
all
facts
he
knows.
This
needs
a
lot
of
knowledge,
which
is
rare.
But
a
man
can
know
all
he
needs
for
his
work.
This
is
what
I
try
to
do.
You
once
described
my
skills
very
clearly."
"Yes,"
I
said,
laughing.
"It
was
an
interesting
list.
Philosophy,
astronomy,
and
politics
were
zero.
Botany
was
mixed,
geology
was
good
for
mud-stains
near
town,
chemistry
was
strange,
anatomy
was
not
organized,
crime
stories
were
unique,
violin-player,
boxer,
swordsman,
and
you
used
cocaine
and
tobacco.
Those
were
my
points."
Holmes
smiled
at
the
last
part.
"Well,"
he
said,
"I
still
think
a
man
should
keep
his
mind
full
of
useful
things,
and
the
rest
can
be
stored
in
books.
For
this
case
tonight,
we
need
to
use
all
our
resources.
Please
give
me
the
letter
K
from
the
American
Encyclopædia
on
the
shelf.
Thank
you.
Let's
think
about
the
situation.
Colonel
Openshaw
had
a
strong
reason
to
leave
America.
Men
of
his
age
do
not
change
their
lives
easily.
His
love
for
being
alone
in
England
shows
he
was
afraid
of
something.
We
can
guess
he
left
because
of
fear.
To
know
what
he
feared,
we
look
at
the
letters
he
and
his
family
got.
Did
you
notice
the
postmarks
on
those
letters?"
"The
first
was
from
Pondicherry,
the
second
from
Dundee,
and
the
third
from
London."
"From
East
London.
What
do
you
think
about
that?"
"They
are
all
ports.
The
writer
was
on
a
ship."
"Excellent.
We
have
a
clue.
It
is
likely
the
writer
was
on
a
ship.
Now,
another
point.
In
Pondicherry,
seven
weeks
passed
between
the
threat
and
the
action.
In
Dundee,
only
three
or
four
days.
What
does
that
suggest?"
