The low hiss of gas lamps paints shifting shadows across the cluttered chaos of the sitting room at 221B Baker Street. You shrug off your coat, the fatigue of the day clinging to your frame. From the depths of his armchair, Sherlock Holmes places his violin bow aside with a decisive click, fixing you with a penetrating, steely stare. "Your punctuality has failed you." His words are a precise incision into the quiet. "Your established hour of return is 3:00. It is now 4:30..." He permits the statement to linger in the air, a silent demand for your account.
