This time, Sherlock Holmes is not only a famous detective but also a fashionista. He and his friend and right-hand assistant John H. Watson have successively experienced bizarre citizen suicide cases, gang smuggling incidents and countdown bomb murder cases.Each case seems independent, but in fact there are connections. Every time the two solve a case, new problems and innocent victims appear.After peeling off the cocoon, Jim Moriarty, the mastermind behind the scenes, finally surfaced. In the final episode of the confrontation, how should Sherlock and Watson, who were threatened by bombs and sniper rifles, escape.

The Metropolitan Police has been caught up in a spate of suicide cases recently.Each of the deceased had taken a lethal poisonous capsule, and the bizarre manner of death attracted widespread attention.Desperate, Officer Lestrade, faced with a series of unexplained deaths, has to turn to unofficial detective consultant Sherlock Holmes for help.

Sherlock Holmes, a detective known for his excellent reasoning skills, took over the case and began an in-depth investigation.From the clues in the case, he keenly realized that this series of events was not a simple suicide.Hidden behind the scenes is a cunning serial murderer.

Meanwhile, John Watson, a doctor looking for a roommate in his apartment, meets Sherlock Holmes.The two hit it off and decided to work together to uncover the truth of the case.They moved into an apartment at 221B Baker Street and became new partners.

At the critical moment, John Watson, who was following him, raised his pistol and shot the taxi driver dead.Under the questioning of Sherlock Holmes, the murderer who was about to die finally revealed the mastermind behind the entire incident - Moriaty.

The story of this episode is adapted from Holmes and Watson's first case: “A Study in Scarlet”.The screenwriter made many clever and interesting adaptations based on the original work.For example, the death message “RACHE” left by the victim was interpreted by Holmes as the German “RACHE” in the original work.But in the BBC drama, Sherlock Holmes rejected this explanation. He pointed out that “RACHE” is actually a female name-Rachel, the victim's dead daughter, and also the password in her mobile phone.It was this death message that helped Sherlock Holmes activate the global satellite positioning system and start tracking the prisoner.

In addition to the adaptation of this key detail, there are many elaborate arrangements in the play that pay tribute to the original work.For example, in London, a city where smoking is banned, the big smoker Sherlock Holmes lost his classic pipe and could only rely on nicotine patches to keep his mind excited.These designs all show the screenwriter's respect and creativity for the original work.

In the bustling modern London, skyscrapers are intertwined with ancient culture, forming a unique landscape.Sherlock Holmes, the world-renowned detective, was once again attracted by the mysterious mystery, and together with his friend John Watson, he stepped into the conspiracy spun by the Black Lotus Gang.

As the investigation deepens, two members of the organization that smuggled antiques were killed one after another, and the yellow paint symbols they left behind became the only clue.These symbols, known as Suzhou codes, were the codes used when smuggling antiques.Yao Sulin, a woman who works in a museum, became a key figure in this conspiracy.But when Sherlock was searching for clues in her home, he was attacked by unknown persons.

Traces of Suzhou Ma Zi were found on a statue in the museum.With the help of graffiti paint experts, the two successfully deciphered the code of the entire wall and found Yao Sulin hidden in the museum.Yao Sulin revealed that behind the smuggling activities of the Black Lotus Gang, there is a secret of a certain word in an ancient book.At this time, gunfire rang out and Yao Sulin died.

John invites Sarah from the clinic to watch the Chinese circus, but unexpectedly Sherlock appears unexpectedly.The three experienced a thrilling adventure in the Black Lotus Gang's circus, but in the end the gang members escaped.Sherlock cracks the code outside the street door, revealing the whereabouts of a hosta worth £9 million.However, when the situation was chaotic, the gang killer was accidentally killed.

All this happened because the bank employee stole the hosta during smuggling and gave it to his lover.The computer communication between the Black Lotus Gang boss and Mortiarty eventually led to his tragic ending.

In this episode, the screenwriter cleverly combines modern London with ancient cultural elements, highlighting the “modern” feature.The relationship between Sherlock and John became more familiar, and the contrast between the two became more obvious.Sherlock looked down upon a check from a college classmate, but John cleverly accepted the check, showing his smooth side.The appearance of Sarah adds many possibilities to the plot and also foreshadows the subsequent story.
