John condemned Sholto for what he had done, but Mary was very calm about it, saying it was inevitable. So he and Lal hid the corpse.Īfter telling his sons about the incident, Sholto asked them to return the treasure to Morstan's daughter. Sholto even more sure that the jury would never believe that he didn't kill Morstan. His servant believed that the sound of Morstan's head bumping into the chest was the sound of Sholto punching him. Since no one knows that Morstan came here anyway, he advises Sholto that there's no need to inform anyone that he has killed him. After admitting that he heard the two of them arguing and Sholto punching Morstan, Lal tells him that he will definitely keep quiet about it. Sholto tries to convince him that he did not kill Morstan, and Lal tells him not to worry. While he was spending a long time panicking about it, his butler Lal appeared in the doorway to check on him. What's more, he feared that the treasure would be found out if he did so. If reported the incident to the police, it would only look like he killed Morstan. He had a seizure, hit his head on the treasure chest as he fell, and died on the spot. Mary's father had a heart condition which got aggravated by their argument. Out of greed, Sholto refused to do so and argued with Mary's father. He kept it a secret from the army and returned to Britain with the treasure.Ī year later, Mary's father also returned to Britain and came to Sholto's place to discuss how they were going to split the treasure. The truth was, he became rich not because his business bloomed in India, but because he and his subordinate, Mary's father, just happened to obtain some treasure while he was still serving in the army. When his condition became incurable, Sholto calls over his two sons to tell them his shocking last request. He fell very ill and had been bedridden since then. Then around six years ago, Sholto received a letter from India, seeming to be very shocked upon reading it. He was very scared of going out alone, and was especially fearful of men with artificial legs. However, his personality had completely changed. Apparently, he had great success in India and returned to Britain with a large amount of money and jewels, along with a couple of Indian servants. He is then alarmed when he sees the 4 cross symbols on the map, because he has seen them before prior to his father's funeral service.ġ1 years ago, Thaddeus' father quit the military and started living at Pondicherry Lodge in Norwood.
John easily accepts her explanation, but Sherlock doesn't seem so convinced.Ĭurious, Thaddeus inquires about the map so Mary shows it to him.
She explains that she thought so because the map she found from her father's notepad looked like a treasure map. The latter asks her about it without an ounce of subtlety, much to Sherlock’s alarm. Sherlock hears Mary mutter, "So the Treasures of Agra does exist." And so does John. The Sign of Mary Act 2 (The Sign of Mary Act 2 四つの署名 第二幕, The Sign of Mary Act 2 Yottsu no Shomei Dai Ni Maku) is the 41st chapter of the MORIARTY THE PATRIOT manga series.
