You see the man walk out in the streets with his magnifying glass and pipe smoking away like usual

Fine ladies and gentlemen or these fine streets, I am your dearest Watson and I am here to tell you a story about an investigation myself and Sherlock has recently done...

It was a cold evening in October in a quiet Manor that has 2 men in it pondering on what to do on a case they had just heard and was assigned too...

"WATSON! Please, tell me, what happened with this "Jack" character and why did he attempt to shoot our good old friend detective Borgianno in LA again?" Says Sherlock

"Well sir, the word around the street is that Jack had some heavy people leaning on him for a hit contract put out on this detective Borgianno sir, the only thing else I could find was this watch and the gun that was used to attempt to kill detective Borgianno" Replied Watson

After looking at the watch and gun for about 20 minutes, Sherlock popped up and started flinging papers up an grabbing him jacket and hat...

"WATSON! I have made a huge discovery! This Jack character got this watch from a specific bookie I know down on 4th street, and this is a very special watch to this bookie, WATSON! DO YOU KNOW WHAT THIS MEANS!?!? IT'S A CLUE MY DEAREST WATSON! A CLUE! COME WATSON GRAB MY PIPE AND LETS GET TO THE BOTTOM OF THIS WATCH!" Yelled Sherlock.

You see Watson and Sherlock sprint around the manor collecting various things and rush out the door leaving papers drifting in the air down to the ground as they left... eventually Sherlock gets to the bookies office and begins to speak.

"Tony! Man been awhile!" Sherlock said.

"Hey man! how can I help ya? Care to make a wager?" said Tony.

"Nah man, had a question, you know your grandmothers watch... how did it end up in a thugs hand named Jack? You wouldn't happen to have any possible information on the Detective Borgianno hit would you?

You see Sherlock slide the bookie and envelope that looked very full, meanwhile Watson has his pen and pad of paper out writing down every detail paying close attention

"Yeah man, Jack Herring came by my office about 3 weeks ago and owed me around 200,000 bucks on a basketball game we had taken a bet on and well frankly, he couldn't pay. So a man I know that I owed a favor too needed this detective taken care of. I trust this information will not come back to me, am I correct my old friend?" Says Tony.

"Of course my friend, what do you take me for? A snitch? Please, go on." says Sherlock

"Well, Jack seemed to not be able to carry out the job, I hear he's held up at King and Fawn street corner, at Goons apartments apartment 12B, kill the bastard for all I care. Too many people are looking for that kid for too many reasons for me to care anymore. As far as my friend goes though, he and detective Borgianno have settled their differences and come to peace." Says Tony.

"Thanks a lot Tony, I'll keep in touch" Says Sherlock

You see the two shake hands as they quickly leave the bookies office and go downtown to the apartment building go up to 12B. They knock...

"Yes?" Says the man nervously.

"Jack Herrington, I have a warrant for your arrest for attempted murder, come out quietly man, or I will have my dearest Watson come in and make you come out." Says Sherlock firmly.

"SHERLOCK AND WATSON!? I'll be right out I can explain everything." Says Jack Herrington.

"No need, explain it down town, I just finished my job." Says Sherlock as he looks at Watson and winks.

You see the men take Jack Herrington downtown and after about 4 hours, they get a complete confession. Jack Herrington was sentenced to Jail in Los Angeles for 17 years for attempted murder, 6 years later he was shanked to death by another inmate.

You see the man begin to puff on his pipe as he picks up a piece of rock and looks at it under his magnifying glass, after awhile of investigating the rock he slides it into his jacket pocket.

"Hah, just found another clue to another investigation we are working on right now. Thank you for listening to this story my fellow people, I hope you enjoy my company and have a good day!

You see the man puff his pipe as he walks away in the direction of his Head Quarters
