Together with his best friend Dr. Watson, Holmes stops Blackwood’s plan to c_____82_____the world with black “magic”. Most of us are not as clever as Holmes. But we can also work out mysteries(謎案) on our own. All we have to do is to follow some simple rules.Rule No. 1: Justice (正義) is most important. No matter how smart he or she is, the most important quality for a detective is being good. In the movie, Lord Blackwood and Sherlock Holmes are both very clever. The difference is that Lord Blackwood is a bad man and he does bad things. Holmes can b_____83_____him on the side of justice.Rule : Have sharp eyes. Every bad man tries to cover up what he did.
