Sherlock Holmes and the Secret Weapon Page #3

Synopsis: Working for the British government, Sherlock Holmes manages to spirit Dr. Franz Tobel out of Switzerland and into England before the GESTAPO are able to get to him. Tobel has devised an immensely accurate bomb site and while he is willing to make it available to the Allies, he insists on manufacturing it himself. Soon however, he vanishes and it is left to Homes, assisted by the bumbling Dr. Watson, to decipher a coded message he left behind. Holmes soon realizes that he is up against his old nemesis, Professor Moriarty.

of the Tobel bomb sight,

just as the Nazis have.

However.

Oh, if you care to place

Dr. Tobel under the

protection of Scotland

Yard until tomorrow.

No, no, no.

No, that won't

be necessary.

I shall personally

deliver Dr. Tobel

to your representatives

on Salisbury Plain

in plenty of time for

the demonstration.

Thank you.

Good night, Sir Reginald.

Good night, Mr. Holmes.

Charlotte Eberli, Flat B.

Right.

Get the car, ready.

I'll wait here

until he comes out.

Is that what the

Americans call doodling?

It is more serious

than you could possibly

realize, Charlotte.

Good.

More coffee?

No, thank you, darling.

I must get back

before they miss me.

We've been separated

for so long.

I couldn't bear

that anything should

part us again.

I want to work with you

and I want to know every

minute where you are.

Even for you

to know the details of

my mission in London

is to sign your

death warrant.

If you are in real danger

I want to share it.

There is one

thing you can do.

Guard this envelope.

If anything happens to me

see that it

reaches the hands

of Mr. Sherlock Holmes.

Mr. Sherlock Holmes.

Yes.

I pray I never

have to deliver it.

Help!

He got away.

Are you all right, sir?

I, I think so.

It must have

been a robber.

Yeah, since the blackouts

those have become

quite a nuisance, sir.

Uhhh.

I say you better

come with me

and have that fixed up.

Uhh, thank you.

Just lean on my arm.

Watson.

Watson, wake up.

Huh?

Where's Tobel.

He, he, he's there.

No he isn't.

He's gone.

That's impossible.

He's asleep in my bed.

I've been here

the whole time.

If anything's

happened to him.

Tobel, you all right?

Ahh, it is nothing.

Yes.

Sit down here.

Let's have a look.

Well it doesn't

look too bad.

Who patched you up,

the police doctor?

Yes.

It looks as if

you've been attacked.

Obviously, my dear Watson.

Dr. Tobel,

do you suspect

the woman

of arranging the trap?

Woman, What woman?

She's blonde.

Five foot six,

full lipped and

very affectionate.

Oh really?

You've known her

for a long time.

You were attacked after

leaving her apartment.

Holmes, how do

you know this?

The face powder

around your coat

tells me of her height

and her affection for you.

You held her close

before departing.

Huh.

It's all there

for the trained eye

to read, Watson?

But look here.

Why couldn't he

have been attacked

on his way to the

woman's apartment?

The mark of the blow has

erased some of the powder.

Obviously if the

attack came first

the powder would have

remained undisturbed.

And the full lips

that was a guess.

I never guess, Watson.

You have rubbed the

lipstick from your face
