Wrong Number - 2b


April 1st
(21:03)
I know I don't know you, so it's weird
that I'm worried, but can you please
confirm that you're still alive?



April 2nd 
(02:21)
Still alive. The last few days were
eventful to say the least.
SH

(02:23)
What happened?

(02:24)
I can't get into details, but it was the
most fascinating case I ever had to
solve. I think I've found my match!
SH

(02:25)
Your match?

(02:27)
Yes, John! The perfect opponent!
Someone intelligent enough to offer
a real challenge! You have no idea
how refreshing it was, how
thrilling!
SH

(02:29)
Well, I'm glad you had fun. Did you
manage to catch the evil genius?


(02:31)
I didn't, but he left with the promise
that we will meet again, so it's a
matter of time. Hopefully sooner
than later. Now that it's over I can
feel boredom creeping in again. I
need a new case.
SH

(02:33)
Has anyone you know been
murdered recently? Or kidnapped?
Kidnapping is interesting too.
SH

(02:34)
No, sorry to disappoint. It's late, why
are you still up?


(02:34)
Just came home. I don't think I'll be
able to sleep tonight.
SH

(02:36)
Adrenalin rush?

(02:36)
Yes.
SH

(02:37)
Lucky you.

(02:39)
Why are you still up?
SH

(02:42)
Can't sleep.

(02:43)
You'll fall asleep at work, isn't that
unprofessional?
SH

(02:46)
So I've heard, but when I'm like that,
it's hopeless, sleep just won't come.
I'm heating up takeaway and
making tea, that can always make
me feel better.


(02:48)
I'm having celebratory Chinese
takeaway with tea at the moment. I
couldn't agree more.
SH

(02:50)
I guess we're having dinner together.

(02:52)
So it would seem.
SH

(02:55)
I raise my mug to you meeting your
ideal nemesis. Or something like
that.


(02:55)
I'll drink to that.
SH

(02:56)
Cheers, mate.

(03:01)
Tell me, John, what did you do
before you became a GP?
SH

(03:05)
Can't you deduce that from the way I
use punctuation?


(03:07)
I can't see how I would;
punctuation has nothing to do with
medicine. Unless you weren't
working as a doctor before…but
what would punctuation have to do
with it?
SH

(03:13)
Were you a teacher? No, you
wouldn't value being a teacher
more than being a doctor. You were
a doctor before, but a different kind
of doctor. That's not helpful at all;
everything in the medical field
would be better than being a GP.
SH

(03:15)
Oi! Don't be an arse! Your job doesn't
even exist!


(03:15)
It exists. I invented it.
SH

(03:17)
Whatever you need to tell yourself ;-)

(03:17)
Now who's being an arse?
SH

(03:20)
I'm kidding. For some strange
reason, I like you.


(03:21)
Yet, you won't tell me what you did
before.
SH

(03:24)
Isn't it more fun that way, puzzle
lover?


(03:26)
When I'll get it right, you'll tell me?
SH

(03:27)
Sure.

(03:30)
I'm done with my late dinner, so I'll
head out for a walk. Thanks for your
company. It was a pleasure, as
always.


(03:31)
Likewise.
SH
