Part 3

When I arrived Fill in the blank 1 of 13 next day, Holmes was not there, so I waited in his room. At four o’clock Fill in the blank 2 of 13 door opened, and Fill in the blank 3 of 13 very strange servant came in. He wore Fill in the blank 4 of 13 old, dirty clothes, and I had to look very hard before I saw that it was my old friend.
‘Holmes!’ I cried. ‘Where have you been?’
‘I’ve had Fill in the blank 5 of 13 very good day,’ he replied with Fill in the blank 6 of 13 smile. ‘I’ve been outside Miss Irene Adler’s house. Fill in the blank 7 of 13 servants are always happy to talk, and so I have heard Fill in the blank 8 of 13 lot about Fill in the blank 9 of 13 young woman. For example, she has Fill in the blank 10 of 13 good-looking man friend called Godfrey Norton, Fill in the blank 11 of 13 lawyer, who often visits her. Now why? If he’s her lawyer, perhaps she’s already given him Fill in the blank 12 of 13 photograph. But if he loves her, she won’t show him Fill in the blank 13 of 13 photograph.’
‘Most interesting, Holmes!’ I said.

‘While I was there, Mr Norton himself suddenly arrived. I watched them through Fill in the blank 1 of 9 windows. When he left, he jumped into Fill in the blank 2 of 9 taxi. “To Fill in the blank 3 of 9 church of St Monica, as fast as you can!” he shouted. Two minutes later Miss Adler ran out of her house, jumped into another taxi and called, “To Fill in the blank 4 of 9 church of St Monica, quickly!” I couldn’t miss this, Watson, so I jumped into Fill in the blank 5 of 9 third taxi. When I arrived, I went into Fill in the blank 6 of 9 church. Godfrey Norton looked round and saw me.
“Thank God!” he shouted. “Come here quickly!” “Why?” I asked. “Come on, man, we need you!” And so I helped Godfrey Norton to marry Irene Adler. They needed Fill in the blank 7 of 9 witness, and Fill in the blank 8 of 9 servant from Fill in the blank 9 of 9 street was better than nobody.’
‘So she’s married him! What shall we do now?’ I asked.

‘Well, tonight, my dear Watson, I need your help. Will you do what I ask? Without Fill in the blank 1 of 10 questions?’
‘Of course, Holmes, if you think that it’s important,’ I answered.
‘Later, we’ll go to Briony Lodge. Irene Adler, or Irene Norton, will arrive home at seven o’clock, and she will ask me to go into Fill in the blank 2 of 10 house. You must wait outside near Fill in the blank 3 of 10 sitting-room window, and when it opens, watch me go inside. When I hold up my hand, throw this thing into Fill in the blank 4 of 10 room and shout “Fire!”‘
I took Fill in the blank 5 of 10 small thing out of his hand. ‘What is it, Holmes?’ I asked.
‘It’s Fill in the blank 6 of 10 smoke-stick. Fill in the blank 7 of 10 room will very quickly be full of Fill in the blank 8 of 10 smoke. After that, wait for me at Fill in the blank 9 of 10 corner of Fill in the blank 10 of 10 street.’
‘Right, I’ll do what you want,’ I said.

That evening Holmes again wore Fill in the blank 1 of 12 different clothes, and Fill in the blank 2 of 12 large, black hat. But it was not just Fill in the blank 3 of 12 clothes that were different. He changed his face, his hair – everything. He was Fill in the blank 4 of 12 different man.
We walked together to Fill in the blank 5 of 12 Serpentine Avenue. Outside Fill in the blank 6 of 12 house there were Fill in the blank 7 of 12 lot of people who were smoking, laughing and talking. Holmes and I walked up and down in Fill in the blank 8 of 12 front of Fill in the blank 9 of 12 house.
‘You see,’ said Holmes to me, ‘I think she doesn’t want her new husband to see Fill in the blank 10 of 12 photograph. But where is it? At her bank? No. Women like to keep Fill in the blank 11 of 12 important things close to themselves. I’m sure it’s in her house.’
‘But Fill in the blank 12 of 12 King’s men tried to find it!’ I said.
‘Yes, but they didn’t know where to look!’ said Holmes.
‘But how will you know?’ I asked.
‘I won’t look. She’ll show me. She’ll have to.’
