“They have only one way to run away,” whispered Holmes. “That is back through the house into Saxe-Coburg Square. I hope that you have done what I asked you, Jones.”

“Yes, I have an inspector and two officers waiting at the front door.”

“Then we have closed all the holes. And now we must be silent and wait.”

What a long time it seemed! We waited for an hour and a quarter, but it seemed to me much longer. I was tired, but I was afraid to move my body. I could hear the gentle breathing of my guys. I looked at the floor. Suddenly I saw a light.

At first it was only a small light on the stone floor. Then it became a yellow line, and then, without any sound, a hole opened and a hand appeared. For a minute or more the hand pointed up through the floor. Then it disappeared and all was dark again except the small light between the stones.

Then there was a loud sound and one of the big, white stones turned over and left a square hole. A clean-cut, boyish face looked out of the hole. He climbed out and was soon standing at the side of the hole. He then helped his guy, a small man with lots of very red hair.

“It’s all clear,” he whispered. “Have you got everything? My god! Run away, Archie, run away.”

Sherlock Holmes jumped out and caught the man with the boyish face. The other jumped down the hole.

Art lovers around the world think about this question for so many years: why does Mona Lisa smile?

However, they can ask Mona Lisa herself in the show in Beijing. It brings the 500-year-old painting to life.

Now Leonardo da Vinci’s famous painting(画) can move her head and wave(挥舞) her hand in 3D, and even answer questions. She can answer the questions about her life, her age and so on. But when she talks she doesn’t speak Italian but Chinese like “Da jia hao, wo jiao Mengna Lisha. Hen gao xing jian dao ni men.”

The new digital(数码的) picture of Mona Lisa is the center piece of the World Classic Interactive Arts Exhibition in Beijing. You can also see other world-famous paintings such as Leonardo da Vinci’s Last Supper. Last Supper is another picture that they made alive(活的) with 3D. In this picture, Jesus(耶稣) can walk and talk with his believers(信徒).

It took Wang Hui and over 400 digital artists in South Korea two years to make the picture, at a cost of about 50, 000, 000 yuan.
