Шерлок Голмс

Sherlock Holmes, the world's greatest, most famous and sole consulting detective, the genuine father of all detectives. The crystallization of the concept of detectives, the representative of "the Revealers". The protagonist of the stories written by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle in the 19th~20th centuries, and the detective that solved every mystery, and in the many mystery novels written after, he is one of the progenitors of "Detectives". Or so it is said. But is that really the truth?

Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's novels were the memoirs of his companion and assistant, Dr. John Watson. Holmes works as a consulting detective in London and is famously based in a flat at 221B Baker Street. He has handled many requests, and has definitely gotten a fair share of serious cases from the London Metropolitan Police Department (Scotland Yard), some of which even involved the English government. He has a doctorates in medicine, economics and law and is a member of the Royal Society, and he is especially well-versed in pharmacy.

Holmes and Watson were investigating the death of Henry Jekyll. Holmes received a letter prior from his death, the letter explaining about his failed experiment and his Hyde persona. Holmes was convinced that the Clock Tower was involved with "The Incident of Jack the Ripper".

The Heroic Spirit Holmes, who resembles the men he was modeled after, such as Joseph Bell, Doyle himself, or the oldest detective in the world, Vidocq - he was summoned into this world as none of the above, but rather, as the protagonist of a series of novels (for his words and actions cannot be thought of those other than that of a protagonist's). In the end, was the story of Sherlock Holmes really a complete work of fiction penned by Sir Doyle, or was it the biography of the actual Holmes as written by Dr. John H. Watson? Perhaps it was somewhere in between the two?
