She says that it an assassination threat, but the sender is labeled Holmes. Last night during Susato's Japanese dinner, Naruhodō ate a piece of food Holmes wanted. Holmes says the warning was fair. Susato reveals that the five orange pips come from a Holmes story of the same name. It was finally published with twelve more short stories. Holmes says he's so famous he recently got a request from the king of Germany. He disguised himself as a fish vendor but Holmes noticed the left side of his mustache twitching. Iris Watson smells fire and Naruhodō demands he needs to get his stuff from the attic. But Iris was just kidding, Holmes showed this as a psychology trick. It was in the Holmes book too, he used the trick to blow lots of cases wide open.
