Chapter 5
John felt sick , he couldn't protect Sherlock , he wouldn't Sherlock protect him , he sat , glued to his chair as he watched Sherlock put the key he had chose in the lock , he looked over to John , and John gave him a nod , just like the day in the pool .
Sherlock turned the key in the lock . It clicked . John let out a sigh of releif . Sherlock opened the box , there was an envelope , on the front it said Sherlock , in neat letters .
Sherlock carefully picked up the envelope .
" Get someone in here to dismantle the bomb , they have 20 minutes before it is supposed to go off , but I doubt it will now "
"Sherlock , whats in the envelope ?"
Sherlock opened the envelope and slid out the paper inside . It was a picture of Mrs Hudson , tied to a chair , with a bomb on her chest , tears streaking down her face .
" Oh god " Sherlock swallowed and turned the paper over .
" what ?"
" It's Mrs Hudson , there's another note on the back "
" oh god no ..." John said in a hushed voice , feeling more ill than before .
Sherlock turned it over and read what it said .
Well done Mr Holmes.
I suppose you wonder why i'm doing this ? It's funny. It makes me laugh to see you squirm . I'd like to make you squirm in another way , but i suppose you would be opposed to that , not that that would stop me if I really wanted to Sherlock , i never really care if the other is ....willing..., maybe i'll try?.If your little boyfriend is the problem , i can always get rid of him .
Anyway , if you want your lovley landlady to stay alive then solve my puzzles . I'm bored of just killing people for money , but this is fun , so solve my puzzle and the landlady lives .
A woman , was in prison , she tried to escape . She knew the man who made the coffins for dead prisoners , and put the bodies in them . They devised a plan . He would put her in the coffin with the next dead person and dig her up later . She had a key , unlocked the cell and slid out . She had a torch in her pocket and she went into the room , slid into the coffin and waited . At dawn , a man came in , as expected , nailed the lid down on the coffin , and took it out to be buried . Only when she turned the torch on and looked over her shoulder did she realise that she would never get out , that she would die in that coffin .
But what did she see ?
When you have figured it out , text this number the answer and collect Mrs Hudson from where we say .

" Sherlock?"
"Not now John "
Sherlock resumed his thinking pose for the 100th time that day . After about 30 seconds , he opened his eyes .
" Got it"
" what the riddle ?" John asked .
" No . i knew that about 5 seconds after reading it , no , i know where this perverted worm is "
" John get my phone , text the number on the card , tell them , the corpse in the coffin was the man she was relying on to dig her up , quickly "
" Where's your phone ?"
" your pocket " Sherlock grinned.
" I'm not your purse Sherlock " John said as he texted the number .
