FAMOUS DETECTIVE HOLMES
The Monster of the Thames River
Hey, the fog is getting very thick! Keep a sharp eye out!
Yes Sir.
What?! What's wrong?!
Something bumped against the bottom of the ship!
Stop! No! Go forward!
Wh...what?!
Everybody! Abandon ship right now!
Abandon ship!
The Monster of the Thames River attacked a cargo ship.
What do you think of that, Mr. Holmes?
What do you mean?
The monster made thunderous sounds and swallowed the ship with one gulp.
Dinosaurs are supposed to have been extinct for 70 million years.
However, I wouldn't doubt it if some had miraculously survived.
I think it could be possible.
Watson, as a scientist, you are a surprising romantic.
How amusing.
Well, it's just kind of a dream.
I think it's not so strange to believe that dinosaurs have survived.
But, I doubt they want to eat cargo ships.
That was wonderful, David!
Bravo! Bravo!
Encore! Encore!
David, encore!
You're embarrassing me.
Don't be shy.
You won a gold medal at the last competition.
You have great skill.
Please play for everybody one more time.
I understand, Mary. Then, I'll play for you with love.
Operation! Stand by!
Professor, we're ready!
Well, let's begin!
- Yes, sir! - Yes, sir!
The Loch Ness Monster comes out now!
Bravooo!
Thank you very much.
Hey.
All right.
Cheers to that beautiful song and your love!
Here!
Oh, thank you!
Thank you!
Well, it's already late. We have to go home now.
Have a safe trip!
- Good luck! - Good luck!
What is that?!
A monster!
The oar!
David!
Swim to the shore!
David!
Mary!!
Mary!!!
David!
It's dangerous, Miss!
David! David!
Where are you, David?!
David!!
Haven't you found anything yet?
Well, it's too dark here.
Oh, I felt something!
What?!
Search more thoroughly!
David...
Yes.
I'm sorry to bother you so early in the morning.
I really wanted to see Mr. Holmes.
Here, come inside please.
Thank you.
May I see him right now?
Yes, he's waking up about now.
Inspector Lestrade searched for him down river.
However, they couldn't find the slightest trace.
But David did not sink to the bottom of the river.
I know David is still alive.
Miss Mary.
We made a promise to be married in the future.
David will keep that promise, no matter what happens.
Mr. Holmes, I also believe...
in their bonds of love.
Excuse me.
Mr. Holmes!
Can you give me 10 minutes to prepare to leave?
No make that 5 minutes.
Thank you Mr. Holmes.
I don't see anything strange.
We did it! We did it!
This time, not even Detective Holmes will figure out this mystery!
Ouch!
Who put a table here?!
You did.
What? Did l? That can't be!
You said we have to prepare the party to celebrate.
Oh, yeah, I remember that.
Then, let's make a toast.
Open the champagne.
This is tight.
Hurry it up!
What the?!
Smiley, what's wrong?
This is like a dream, all this gourmet food.
I understand Smiley.
All we've been eating is the hard crusts of bread with water.
But!
Thank you for being patient and working for me to this day.
I appreciate it.
Professor!
I won't let you suffer anymore.
Goodbye to sorrow, hello to happiness.
We'll have wonderful days continuously from now on!
As long as the Thames River exists!
Our victory is...
That's really noisy!
It's the brat!
Do you want me to shut him up?
Well, wait...
he's a rare guest. Let's invite him to the table.
Bring him.
That's a flute, isn't it?
Yes, it is.
I remember you!
You are the genius boy flute player David...
who won the championship at the last competition.
If you know me, then please return me to the surface!
Please!
That's impossible.
I want you to remain a hostage just in case.
How come?
Didn't you find any clues?
Unfortunately, I still haven't found anything.
As I feared.
Miss, please don't be disappointed.
I'm sure there is some way to find him.
There was nothing at the bottom of the river.
There is only one person who could conceive and carry out a ruse like this.
Here goes!
Holmes, be careful!
I know.
Oh, the tide is on the ebb.
David!
Hey! Watch out! What are you...?!
-Let me go!I saw David over there! -Miss, it's just your imagination.
What was I doing?
Well, you gave me quite a scare.
I'm very sorry.
Watson, let's check from the boat one more time!
Oh, wait!
Holmes, what's going on?
I believe we've found the monster's hideout.
Take a look.
Let me see.
That steel plate must be the entrance of the hideout.
But it's under water. Under steel plates as well.
It won't be easy to open.
Let's get some help from inspector Lestrade and the Navy.
This is...
Here's the trick...
the monster comes out, swallowing the cargo ship loaded with goods.
Surprised?
This is an amazing machine.
But I'm sure somebody will find this soon!
I'm afraid not.
Not only Inspector Lestrade, but the famous Detective Holmes...
...is having a hard time investigating this case,he's already given up.
Mr. Holmes?
Well, not because Holmes didn't have the ability to figure this out...
it's just that my genius brain is superior, and has brought me victory.
Fortunately we found an old scrap ship.
We will decorate it and make it look like a new ship now.
Thank you for your cooperation.
Well, let's move on quickly!
But be careful with those goods!
Inspector, how long will it take?
Well, I think they can finish loading the goods in about one hour.
Then, we have to hurry too.
Oh, Holmes, are you sure we can beat the monster just by doing this?
Everything is perfect. Please do just as we have planned.
If the enemy made a fortification under the river...
they have to have a place to let in air.
But, so far I can't find the spot anywhere.
I might have overlooked it. Maybe we should go back again.
Mr. Holmes?
Hey!
Holmes!
I brought the longest rope, just like you asked.
Thank you.
Did you find any clues?
I already found one.
There is no need for a chimney in a warehouse.
Do you think you can catch anything today?
So far, I've only seen a small barge.
You don't have to rush.
I'm sure a big target will appear soon.
Mary, I won't give up until the end.
Here you go.
I can hear David playing the flute.
David.
I'm sure this must be connected to the underwater fortification.
It sounds very noisy. Let me stop his playing.
Wait!
Beautiful music is great nutrition for the genius brain.
Make sure he keeps playing.
Well, but I have a bad feeling.
Mr. Holmes, be careful.
Yes, yes.
Can you tell Inspector Lestrade...
to have the ship leave in five minutes.
All right, I will.
Now begins the extermination of the monster...
and we will rescue David.
Is anything wrong?
The flute stopped.
Wh... who are you?
I'm Holmes, I'm here to take you back. Here, come quickly.
Yes.
Todd, can you go and tell him to keep playing the flute?
All right.
What's that noise?
It sounds very suspicious.
Professor!
What?
-I see a big ship coming close to us. -What?!
Lestrade!
The Inspector is guarding it himself.
That ship must be carrying very valuable goods.
This is gonna be a big catch.
Professor, what about his flute?
Fool!
This is not a time to worry about it. Hurry! Hurry up!
Go into the action right now!
Wait for me!
Great, reverse the engine. Move Point Two to the right.
The distance to the target is thirty meters.
Turn on the light.
Inspector, it's here!
Great!
Now, ignite the fuses!
Close the lid tightly. If water gets in, we're finished.
Abandon ship!
Hurry!
We did it! A great success!
What are the goods this time?
They had heavy security.
I'm sure it will be gold bullion.
Gold bullion?!
We can eat gourmet food again!
We did it!
Hey Holmes, it's them again.
Yes.
Don't let them go!
Moriarty! I will arrest you this time!
Curses! You get more annoying every week!
Here we go!
Fools! Why don't you come and catch us?!
What?!
Take that!
That's as far as you go! Enjoy your rest!
Hey! Do a U turn! A U turn!
Go!
Don't let them go! Go! Move! Move!
Even through fire and water!
I have a great respect for Inspector Lestrade's fighting spirit.
Well, that's true.
You won another victory with this case.
No.
Their love is the real victory.
Foggy London...
a young man visited Holmes while he was bored.
He asked Holmes to look for three missing students.
When Holmes began the investigation...
he found traces of them unexpectedly.
