'I had no idea it was so much,'said Holmes in surprise.'The Baskerville lands are worth aboutdancing fountainone million pounds,' Dr Mortimer said.
'Dear me,'said Holmes.'A man高空作业could kill for that much.One more question.If something happened to our young friendPIGMENT BLUEhere,who would get Baskerville Hall and all its lands?'
'Well,as you know,Sir Charles had two brothers.Sir Henry is the only son of Sir Charles'youngerNike running shoesbrother.The youngest brother of the three,Roger,was a criminal.The police wanted him,so he had to leave England.They say he looked exactly like themlb jerseyfamily picture of old Sir Hugo,who first saw the Hound.He was the same kind of man,too.He went to SouthMBT SALEAmerica,where he died of a fever.So if Sir Henry died,Baskerville Hall would go to James Desmond,who is a cousin of thenfl jerseyBaskervilles.James Desmond is an old man,who lives in the north of England.His life is very simple and he would not want to be rich.'
'Thank you,Dr Mortimer,'said Holmes.'Now,Sir Henry,I agree that you should go to Baskerville Hallcheap jerseysas quickly as pos sible.But you must not go alone.I myself cannot leave London at the present time.I am working on another case.I am trying to saveghd straightenersone of the most important men in England from a diffi cult situation.I hope my friend Watson will go with you.If thereflat hair ironis danger,you could not have a better man by your side.'
Sir Henry and I were both very happy with this idea.So we arranged to travel to DevonshireMBT ON SALEon the following Saturday.
Just as we were leaving Sir Henry's room,he gave a cry and got down on his knees by the table.
'Here's my brown shoe that was lost,'he said,reaching un der the table.
'That's very strange,'said Dr Mortimer.'We both searched the room before lunch,and it wasn't underwholesale nfl jerseysthe table then.'None of the people who worked at the hotel could explain how the shoe had got back into the room.
So we had another mystery.On the way back to Baker Street in the taxi,Holmes sat thinking deeply.Allnfl jerseys wholesalethrough the afternoon and the evening he went on thinking silently,and smoking pipe after pipe.
Just before dinner,a telegram arrived.It was from Sir Henry and said:'Have just heardnfl replica jerseysthat Barrymore is at the Hall.'
'So we don't have the answer to the mystery of the man with the beard,'said Holmes.'Butnhl jerseysperhaps we shall soon have an answer to another question.'
At that moment the door bell rang.It was the driver of the bearded man's taxi.'I got a messagewholesale jerseysthat you wanted to see me,'said the driver.'I hope there's nothing wrong.'
'No,no,my good man,'said Holmes.'In fact I'll give you some money if you can answer my questionsdiscount jerseysclearly.Tell me all about the man in your taxi this morning.He was watching thisnfl jerseys wholesalehouse at ten o'clock and then told you to follow the two gentlemen who came out of it.'
The taxi driver was surprised at how much Holmes seemed to know.He answered:'The man told me thatworldcup jerseyshe was a detec tive,and that I should say nothing about him to anyone.'
'This is a serious business,'said Holmes,'and you will be in trouble if you try to hide anything.What can you tell me?'
'The man told me his name,'said the driver.Holmes looked like a man who has just won an importantworldcup jerseysgame.'That was not very clever of him,'he said.'What was his name?'
'His name,'said the taxi driver,'was Sherlock Holmes.'
I have never seen my friend look more surprised Then he laughed loudly.'Tell me where be got into your taxi and everything that happened.'
We already knew most of what the taxi driver told us.But we learned that after we had lost sight ofMAX SHOESthe taxi,it had gone to Waterloo Station,where the man had caught his train.The taxi driver said that the man was welldressed and had a black beard and pale face.He was aboutdiscount nfl jerseysforty and not very tall.The driver did not know the colour of the man's eyes.
Holmes gave the man a pound,and sent him away.Then he said: 'We have a very clever enemy,Watson.He is winning the game at the moment.We have no answers at all to the strange things that have happened in London.I hope youchristian louboutin shoesare more suc cessful at Baskerville Hall,but I am not happy about sending you there.There is too much danger in this case.'
