Ah, Lestrade. Watson tells me that your new AI toy Claudi has solved the case of the missing Ethernet cable. Oh, indeed? The Duke of Timberland?

So sorry, Lestrade, but Claudi is wrong. Timberland couldn't have done it, as is obvious to anyone who looks at the actual case with open eyes. Afraid I can't explain further at this moment, terribly busy. But why don't you pay a visit to the Duke's daughter. Ask her about her NeXTcube. Yes, Lestrade, her NeXTcube. Find someone who can explain it to you.

And get rid of Claudi. You don't really need any additional source of blunder and incompetence at the Yard, do you Lestrade?

Holmes put away his trusted Psion 3a and picked up his pipe. He was in chatty mood.

We can expect some rather amusing chaos to arise at Scotland Yard, don't you think, Watson? Lestrade and his mates are all excited about their new toy, ClaudiSpy. "We won't have to put up with Holmes's capriousness any more! Claudi will do the thinking!" Poor chaps. They have no idea.

Give it a year and Mrs Hudson will be busy fending off their requests to see me. Re-opening cases that got "solved" by jailing the wrong person gives no one any joy.

Well, Sherlock, I should think that you will find some of these cases appealing?

No, Watson, not I.

I solve real cases. I don't clean up the mis-deeds of incompetent predecessors. It's a tedious and boring business. Life's too short. Lestrade will have to find help elsewhere. He could ask Moriarty, for all I care!

My friend truly was in the most peculiar mood that afternoon!

Inspector Lestrade did not try to hide his pride. "Charlotte, our new AI agent, really is the ticket. We gave her the data and she found the murderer within seconds. We have arrested Jones, the plumber. Not sure whether we will need your services much longer, Holmes," he laughed. "Charlotte does the work." Sherlock smiled drily.

What can one do about someone like Lestrade, Watson, he said to me once we sat in the cab. Someone who can't think can't see the truth even when it stares them in the face. Jones would never have twisted the compression coupling counter-clockwise, he's a trained plumber, for Heaven's sake! It was Lord Jenkins who removed the pipe, ignorant of the nature of the fittings. Hence the scratch marks on the brass. Lestrade will call on us again by evening. It is Tuesday, Watson, I believe Mrs Hudson has some cake for us. We can keep some for Lestrade.
