Wrong Number - 1c

February 6th
(11:28)
So, what do you do?

(11:32)
At last, he vanquishes technology
and figures out how his phone
works.
SH

(11:34)
I could be a woman, you know.

(11:34)
Please. Don’t insult me. If you were
a woman, I would know.
SH

(11:36)
I repeat: what do you do?

(11:37)
I’m a consulting detective. The only
one in the world.
SH

(11:38)
What’s a consulting detective?

(11:40)
When people have problems to
solve, they consult me. Scotland
Yard has a lot of problems to solve,
so they consult me a lot.
SH

(11:42)
That sounds amazing and ridiculous
at the same time. I’m not sure I
believe you.


(11:44)
Will this convince you?
SH

(11:47)
Is that a corpse?!?!

(11:48)
Obviously not. It’s part of a corpse.
Legs, to be exact.
SH

(11:51)
How will a picture of a corpse
convince me that you’re solving
murders and not committing them?!


(11:53)
If I were the murderer, I would be
in prison without my mobile. Did
you notice anything special on the
picture?
SH

(11:54)
Yes. There was a dead body on it.

(11:54)
Don’t be an idiot.
SH

(12:01)
Alright, I’ll play along. It looks like
she has oedema in one of her legs, so
maybe she had a medical condition?


(12:04)
Not something painful like gout or
arthritis, her heels are too high for
that. Maybe Varicose veins?


(12:05)
Am I even close?

(12:06)
You’re a doctor.
SH

(12:07)
Maybe. Was I right?

(12:09)
Perhaps, but it wasn’t relevant to
the case. I was talking about the
splashes on her right heel and calf.
It’s how I solved the case.
SH

(12:11)
How?

(12:13)
It was proof that she had a suitcase.
Said suitcase was missing. Looked
for it, found it, solved it.
Simple.
SH

(12:15)
Nope, I still don’t get it.

(12:18)
I found her email address on her
case’s tag. I already had her
password, so I logged on to her
me.com account and tracked her
missing phone with the GPS.
SH

(12:20)
All because you knew she had a
suitcase? That’s fantastic!


(12:20)
It’s what I do.
SH

(12:24)
Is it weird that we’re speaking?

(12:24)
Is it?
SH

(12:26)
Maybe. A bit.

(12:29)
It wouldn’t be as weird if I knew
your name. SH, are those your
initials or are you shushing me in
every single one of your messages?


(12:59)
Hello? Have you been called to
another crime scene? Did someone
flash the consulting detective signal?
