After the taxi ride, you, Sherlock, John and Dr Michael are outside a block of flats and You pressed the door buzzer marked 'Van Coon'. Releasing it, you look into the security camera about the buzzers, waits a couple of seconds, then presses the buzzer again. There's no response.

"So what do we do now? Sit here and wait for him to come back?" John said and you look at him.

"Or maybe he's dead because I know it, I can feel it" you said and John glared at you. You ignore John glare and look back at the number of buzzers on the wall and steps back to look up the front of the building, presumably calculating the layout of tht flats inside. You came back to the wall and looks back at John, Sherlock and Dr Michael triumphantly

"Just moved in" You stated.

"What?" John ask.

"Yeah look the floor above. New label" Sherlock said as he points to another buzzer which has a handwritten label saying, Wintle.

"Could has just replaced it" John says as you presses that buzzer, then look back at John, Sherlock and Dr Michael again.

"No one ever does that" you said then a woman's voice comes over the intercom.

"Hello?" woman greet as you look at the camera and smiles.

"Hi! Um, me and my 2 brothers live in the flat just below. I-I don't think we've met" you said as you point at Dr Michael and Sherlock then you smiles into the camera.

"No, well, uh, I've just move in" the woman said. Both you and Sherlock turns to throw a brief 'told you so' glance at John, then you turn back to the camera.

"Actually, I've just locked my keys in my flat" you said as you grimaces and bites your lip plaintively and hope the woman can buzz you Shelock and Dr Michael buzz in.

"D'you want me to buzz you three in?" The woman says.

"Yeah. And can we use your balcony?" you ask

"What?" the woman said.

Afterwhile you, Dr Michael and Sherlock are standing on Ms Wintle's balcony and three of you look over the side. Luckily, the other flats below have balconies that you three could easily climb on.

"Okay, I'll start first and Michael, Sherlock you follow me behind" You said. Sherlock nodded and Dr Michael look at you worriedly becuase of your injured right shoulder before you go down Dr Michael stop you by grabbing your arm and sais quietly.

"Becareful not to hurt your right shoulder" He said, you nodded then he let go and you climbs over of the balcony.

"what was that for Dr Smith?" Sherlock ask, Dr Michael look at him and answered.

"Just wishing her good luck and try not to fall" Dr Michael replied, Sherlock nodded.

Once you drops down onto the outside of Van Coon's flat and you balance yourself then you called Dr Michael and Sherlock.

"Ok, you two it's your turn" you says as you wait you put your left hand on your right shoulder and rub gently then you hear a thud you look and see Dr Michael he looking at you, he come to you and said.

"How's your right shoulder?" he said quietly.

"it's ok just hurt a bit" you replied and he nodded then there another thud and you two look at Sherlock landed then you turn around and reaches for the handle of the door and finds it unlock.

As the three of you go inside, you see that the place is very elegantly decorated. Clearly, Van Coon is a wealthy man with all the white leather furture, black tables and minimal clutter. You and Dr Michael  look over the living room while Sherlock go into the kitchen and look at the wrok surface. He go to the fridge and see that it has bottles of champagne in it. Suddenly, the front door buzzes.
