“Yes, my stepfather put it in only a couple of years ago," replied Helen.
Holmes went over and pulled on the rope.
"It doesn't do anything. Look! It's attached to that air vent. Why is there an air vent there? An air vent should go outside but this one leads to the next room. Let's look more closely.
We all went into the doctor's room. It was a strange room. There were only three things : a bed, a wooden chair and an iron safe.
"what is in the safe?” Holmes asked the woman.
"My stepfather's documents,”
“ Does your stepfather keep a cat?"
Holmes was pointing to a dish on the floor with milk in it.
"There are only the cheetah and the baboon. That milk would not be enough for a cheetah.”
