| In Shoreditch, the two friends reunite with Lestrade and make for the crime scene, located in a cheap lodging house guarded by policemen. The body lies gutted in the center of the room, and green blood is splattered on the floors and walls. On one wall the word "Rache" is written in the victim's blood, which the detective proceeds to examine. Lestrade assumes that the victim was writing the name "Rachel". |

| He deduces fro m the green colour of the blood, the number of limbs on the body, and the nature of the eyes that the victim was clearly a royal, likely a prince of a German state. Lestrade confirms that the victim was Prince Franz Drago of Bohemia, a nephew of Queen Victoria who was staying in England for his health (or, as the detective puts it, for "theatres, whores, and gaming tables"). |

| The detective, complaining about the police's amateurish efforts destroying the evidence, proceeds to inspect some splattered mud and a pile of ash. He then states that Lestrade is foolish to be looking for a woman, as the word "Rache" means "revenge" in German. |
|
| Why did you destroy the evidences? Lestrade you are foolish to be looking for a woman as the word "Rache" means "revenge" in German. | |
