Tommy Holmes

Double crime

'Come on lads!' shouted the headmaster. My name is Tommy. Full name is Tommy Holmes. You can probably tell from my name that my father was the famous detective: Sherlock Holmes. After my father passed away, my uncle, Jack Holmes admitted me to a boarding school. I've been living here for the past 7 years. I'm now 17. My goal is to become a famous detective like my father. Anyways, it was outing time. During this period, we can go out anywhere we want. I like to roam around the city looking for mysteries to solve, but the problem these days are that there are guards everywhere we go. So finding mysteries and crimes are difficult these days. So I was just walking around town, looking at the new buildings they had built. It was the year 2020. Tomorrow is new year. While looking, something caught my eye. It was a group of police standing in front of a jewellery shop. I went over there and asked a guard what happened. He told me that there had been a robbery and a murder at the store. He told me Mr.Snow, the owner of the store was murdered. He was very rich and everyone who knew him was jealous of him. When I heard about the scenario,I had only one thought in my head then.......It was an opportunity not to be missed. I asked the guard if there was any fingerprint or anything, but he wouldn't tell me anything. I decided to investigate on my own. At about 9:45 pm, every shop closed. I sneaked out of the school at headed to the place of robbery. I looked around but there was no one on the street. I broke the lock and entered the store. It was cold and for some reason, there was a light coming from a room. I looked around trying to find a clue or something. Just when I decided to go back, something caught my eye! It looked like a note of some kind. It said 'I will always haunt this place.' I didn't look like it was written by a ghost or something. It looked like some parts of the note was written in blood. I carefully looked at the note and saw the numbers '11011' written. I also saw the word calendar. I immediately knew who it was! I broke the numbers into months.
1=January
10=October
11=November
The code spelt 'Jon'. I knew who Jon was. He was the assistant of  Mr. Snow. I knew I had to tell the cops about this but how? The following day, I went to the police station. I said I wanted to meet the chief and they took me to him. I told what I saw and who the murderer was. He was thankful but also mad at me for breaking the lock. He immediately left for the station and went to meet Jon. The police interrogated him, he denied that he killed Mr.Snow but the told the cops that he stole the jewels. The chief returned to the station and called me. I went to meet him and he said the words I couldn't believe: he wanted to hire me! I was so happy that I couldn't explain to anyone who asked me why I looked so happy. I thought that after I found out who the robber who, it would all end, but boy was I wrong! I had to find the murderer now! I got to work instantly. I went back to the store and entered the room from where light was coming. There was a door and as soon as I opened the, I saw notes everywhere. I picked one up and read 'Solve me to find the murderer' and below that, there was written 'I am a cylinder through which conveyance pass . I am situated on road. Can you guess where I live? My name is Saint Hollow.' I was confused, but then a thunder went across my head! I thought conveyance are cars and cars ride on roads and cylinders can be  tunnels. So the tunnel is named Saint Hollow and it was abandoned. So people can hide there. I went to the chief and told him about the tunnel. We headed for the tunnel. When we reached the tunnel, it was pitch black. The cops brought torches and shone the torch towards the entrance. A small trailer was clearly visible. Every police officer and I approached the trailer carefully. An officer opened the door and there was a man sitting. He looked extremely shocked. From the look on his face I knew that it was him. The police tortured him and interrogated him. Finally he admitted and was sentenced to prison for four years. The police rewarded me with a thousand pounds, and because of the police I started becoming famous and I only knew one thing: it was the start of my legacy
