On this page of the Sherlock Holmes Chapter One guide you will find a walkthrough of The Missing Shopkeeper.
During this quest you’re able to earn the Read It and Weep achievement.
The case becomes available after completing A Gilded Cage story and Eel Hunting side cases.
An achievement can be obtained in the course of this case (Read It and Weep).
Reward: 20 coins
Achievements obtainable during the course of the case: Read It and Weep.
Once you arrive at the building, talk to the receptionist.
You do that when turning in the Eel Hunting Mycroft’s Case.
To make things easier, we’ve marked the building in the screenshot above.
Activate Focus Mode to follow the footprints.
The footprints will lead you to a yard that contains a small interactive area.
We recommend Worker’s Apron so you blend in the crowd as much as possible.
Thanks to the disguise, you’ll be able to ask around and obtain more information.
Wagon tracks
Pin the next objective from your casebook and return to the main road.
Nevertheless, you should easily see white circles that can be examined in the Focus Mode.
Combat
Here you’ll be facing against 10 armed enemies.
Remember that the game prefers arresting over killing.
You’ll see how you fared based on score and Jon’s face.
Tables
There are three tables in the building that you’re gonna wanna examine.
The first of them is in the middle of the room, on it there are cards and dominoes.
The next table is on the left.
It’s easily located thanks to the flame that illuminates this area.
This is mandatory step in this case.
Inside, there is a table with a very important letter on it.
Moreover, you’ll encounter a body.
It’s a whole pile that’s hard to get around.
Track the obtained evidence from your casebook and then go to the cell where the shopkeeper was being held.
Look at the mattress to see bloodstains and a moving tile.
This will influence your relationship with him.
Ending
after you grab all the information, go back to the receptionist.
Your decision will affect her life.
