Flea Market


'Isn't it funny how the mind works, Watson?' asked my companion as we examined the knick-knacks on the makeshift table.

'How so?' I replied, curious to find out what prompted Holmes out of his morose fog resulting from the acquittal of Thomaš, the poisoner.

'My dear fellow, I have been a fool. All the while I had been searching for a mortar and pestle, the answer may have been a common coffee-grinder.'

'It's too late. Thomaš is a free man.'

'Yes, that is a pity, but at least I now know how he did it!'

.oOOo.
