A Prince was going to get married in Bohemia with a princess. He used to love a woman called Irene Adler. However, they were not able to marry because she was an ordinary woman. Irene threatened the kingdom that if the prince was going to get married with someone else, then she would send picture to the public of the Prince and her together. Sherlock Holmes was to get the picture (which they do not know where it is). Sherlock solved this mystery by asking his sidekick Dr. Watson to fake that there was fire near Irene's house. He said to do this because just as a mom looks for her baby, Irene would look for her most important thing in her house,which is the picture in this case. They figured out that the picture was in this shelf. The next day, Irene left a note to Holmes that she just did not keep a promise to herself and so that she just gave up. She told Holmes hat she will keep the photo safe and that is how the case ended.

He was very strict about money. One day, Mary told her parents that she would be going to a ball.At the ball, she met a man called Mr. Hosmer Angel. They had fell in love with each other. Mary did not want to tell her father about about this so she invited him when her father was away. Mary never went to Mr. Hosmer Angel's house. Later, Mr. Angel asked Mart to marry her when her father was away. When they arrived at the wedding hall, her fiance had just disappeared. Holmes figured out that the man was Mary's father because if her daughter is getting married, then he had to give her money. He did not want that so he faked like he was another person. The was why Mary's father was not there whenever 'Mr. Angel' came over and it also explains why 'Mr. Angel' asked Mary to marry him when Mary;s father was away.

The Engineer's Thumb
One day, a man called Mr. Victor Hartherley came to tell his case. He talked to a man called Colonel Lysander Stark. He siad that there was something wrong with their company's machine and asked Victor to fix. He said that this had to be a secret. When Victor went to Stark's house. He realized that the machine was very dangerous and that it depended on his life. He escaped safely but apparently lost his thumb.
However, when they went with the police to arrest them it was to late. The house was burning and they had escaped. There was basically no result.
I did not really get the story and it was kind of boring for me. I hope that the next story will be way better.
