In last Murder the whole house was blown up. On the burned body of the victim it was written that “ It is the only way.” On one of the walls of the house it was written that “Justice is going to be served on the place where rules are made and the place is above an abandoned area.” This message said a lot of things.

Sherlock remained calm, his eyes never leaving the bomb. "I don't think, Moriarty. I know."

Sherlock watched him go, a look of satisfaction on his face. "No, Moriarty. It's just beginning."

Back at 221B Baker Street, Sherlock and Watson reflected on their victory. Watson poured them both a drink, raising his glass in a toast. "To justice, and to outsmarting the devil himself."

Sherlock clinked his glass against Watson's, a rare smile playing on his lips. "To the thrill of the chase, my friend."
