A Deduction of One's Very Own

Summary:

It might have been a simple deduction, but it was still a solid one.

Notes:

Work Text:

"Despite that man's claims, he's been having money troubles for at least a year. That's the only explanation for that circular callus in the center of his palm and the discoloration of the skin inside it. No one with easy access to funds would empty a pipe onto their palm to check for unburnt tobacco leaves that could be reused. If his wife's jewelry collection is missing then it's because he's trying to hide the fact he sold it."

Watson nodded. "A deduction born from personal experience I assume, but still valid. Excellent work."

Beaming with pride Kincaid replied, "Elementary."
