The Consulting Criminal
"A delicious impasse, my dear."
Jim sat down across from him. Affecting really their usual places when Jim would stalk his way up into 221 B. "I made it all up." Jim sipped his tea, always heavy on the cream. "The set up back there. The chains, the abduction. I lied. It was my affair. I wanted to see how you'd react and respond. I had to try you out. Not the first time I've lied to you, but I rarely do. This was an interesting experiment. It was easier than I believed it would be, to get you here. You could have come here any time, as I come to your home unasked. But you haven't tried, have you. Now, here you are."
