Sherlock Holmes's Theatre of Logic and Deductions

Sherlock Holmes's Theatre of Logic and Deductions, also known as The Great Detective's Great Deductions is a method of rapid-fire deductive reasoning employed by Sherlock Holmes and Dr John H Watson.
== The Detective's Reasoning ==
Holmes's reasoning is usually made up of 2 deductions and subsequently 2 conclusions.
For example:DEDUCTION #1: What did the victim hear?CONCLUSION #1: The victim heard the lullabyDEDUCTION #2: What did the victim see?CONCLUSION #2: The victim saw the chair.These conclusions are usually rather close (signified by a ❗ on the part of the person being deduced) but usually fall flat before coming to the final conclusion (signified by a ❓ on the part of the person being deduced).
=== Deductive Examination ===
At this point, Watson usually interjects and Holmes repeats his deductions once more, pausing when he encounters a ❓ and then "changing" the path of the deduction, which often results in an entirely different, though much more correct, conclusion.
For example:DEDUCTION #1: What did the victim hear?CONCLUSION #1: The victim heard the lullaby The victim heard the killer's voice DEDUCTION #2: What did the victim see?CONCLUSION #2: The victim saw the chair The victim saw the snake underneath the chair.
== Where has it been employed? ==
=== The Adventure of the Empty House ===
Holmes previously made a deduction about President Frank Underwood accusing him of trying to conceal evidence related to the death of Candice Arme under the rubble. Instead it turned out that he had lost his trademark ring amongst trying to escape.
=== The Adventure of the Runaway Room ===
Holmes and Watson employed the method at Greg Lestrade's request with the hope of bringing more evidence to light against Cosney Megundal, seeing as the prosecution's case was beginning to fall flat. The deduction, however, was never completed successfully (and nor was a deductive examination carried out) as evidence proved that the evidence in the carriage had been falsified during an emergency recess.
As such, the prosecution's case collapsed and Megundal escaped seemingly scott-free.
