Not Everyone Needs A Title

Chapter 10

Sherlock was locked in a closet. As he feels along the was for a light switch he trips over something. It's a body. Looks to have been in here for a few days until he starved. There were two others as well. They all died of starvation. He tried to touch the ceiling but couldn't reach. Be did find a string. He pulled it and a bare lightbulb came on.

"Disgusting. Well now he gets a life sentence if I can get out. When. When I get out."

"Shut up in there!" Matt yells

"Well if anyone comes in and I yell they can hear me." He says quietly

Sherlock looks up to see a vent. It's rather large for a flat this size but he balances on a rocking chair and pops it open anyway. He crawls through it untill he finds himself in a different flat a floor up.

"Now to get proof of abuse." He says to himself

He pulls out a camera with a voice recorder built in. He had proof on it of the drug cartel. He steps down the stairs quietly and finds Matt yelling at Mrs. Dale. He records it and winces as he slaps her hard. He closes the camera having everything he needs. He runs for the front door and throws it open. He races across the street and bails a cab.

"Scotland Yard in 5 minutes I'll pay extra" he gets there in time and pays

"Wait for me here. I'll pay double this time when we go back."

Lestrade had gotten the call but was getting ready to looks for the young genius.

"Perfect you're all ready come on." He says as he runs back out.

They get back to the flat and Matt being the idiot he is was still there. Lestrade arrested him and Sherlock told him about the bodies in the closet.

"Thank you Sherlock thank you. As for pay-"

"You really don't have to pay me"

"Do you want the flat upstairs? I'll cut your rent"

Sherlock smiles. He had saved an old lady and gotten a flat.

"That would be great." he says
