Well, this was something, wasn't it? Looking at the picture on the newpaper page, Moriarty placed it on his desk beside another one. It had an image of the same woman on the front page. Irene Adler. Or, as she was now known as, Violet Holmes. The fact she had chosen his enemy's name for a false identity made Moriarty scowl. And it was obvious that she had taken a false identity. Past events ruled out any other option. She had gotten in contact with the consulting criminal for advice, he had told her how to manipulate the Holmes brothers, disrupted Mycroft's anti-terrorist operation, then...poof. Irene Adler had disappeared. He had heard that she was killed by a terrorist cell.
But apparently it was otherwise. She was an actress now. The first paper was about her arrival in London. Apparently the fans had gone wild. The second story was about one of Sherlock's cases, in which Irene had been the target of a shooting. But she survived. Moriarty wasn't sure if that had been one of his operatives. He'd have to run it by Moran. His sharpshooter was always someone he could depend on for reliable records when he wasn't sure himself.
Now though, Moriarty had decided to get to the bottom of things. Good God, that sounded like a cheesy Sherlock line. Anyway. He had had one of his agents track down Irene and find out her patterns. And today the spider was going to make a move. His phone bleeped and he read the text. A few minutes later he was driving off in a stolen taxi, heading for the location of the actress' rehearsal. No doubt she would need a lift back to wherever she was staying. And his people were going to make sure that he was the only taxi on this street.
