Meanwhile, Holmes has decided to dress himself like a mudlark and visit the Wasp Nest's Pub Os to offer his services to Bluto. Go to the Sherlock to the bedroom and take your new clothes. Then select Whitechapel district and the Wasp Nest's Pub.
When you will be inside try to go to the Bluto (right of the bar). On the way there Holmes will notice a hole in the ground. First of all, you have to move the plank and take tongs. Then you will have to solve another puzzle. You have to move items. But some of them can be moved only vertically and others - horizontally. The point is to get the jewel with the Hebrew character on it.

When you will get the Jewel Holmes will knock to the door on the right. Bluto will order you to recover a heavy bag from the abandoned building located opposite to the Finley guest house. Then he will tell Holmes some interesting things about Dr Tumblety.
Go to the Finley's Bed & Breakfast (use map). You will smell a gas there. The gas goes out of the window of the abandoned building mentioned by Bluto. To get there you will need a ladder. Finley will tell you that you can find broken ladder under the stairs. You just have to fix it. Go to the courtyard located left of Finney (on the right side of the stairs). Take Elbow Pipe located on the barrels: Hammer Head and perfume puffer that is lying on the ground.
Cancel the zoom option and go to the another part of the courtyard and look at some garbage under the stairs. You will find two lead pipe from a gas system, small planks, rusted iron dishes, little stick and a nozzle from a perfume atomizer.
Take a wooden pole, two sticks and nails located near the bench. Don't forget about some rags too. Go to the inventory and combine hammer head with small stick. As a matter of fact you will get a hammer. Combine two sticks together, then attach wooden pole to them, add small planks, nails and a hammer - you will get a ladder.
Now try to get to the building. Bring the ladder to the windows from which gas is leaking. You will need something like mask, which will protect Holmes from the gas. Go to the barrel with water and use rags on it. Now you can use wet rags on Holmes face (just click it in the inventory). Now you can go inside.
Take a look at the table with the dead rat, and go to the upper left corner of the room. You will find a blowtorch there, which will be very useful. Then go to the opposite wall and take iron bar.
Return to the center of the room and go to the wall in front of the window. On the left of the door with boards you will find a gas installation. Use your rod to open it. Note that there is a bag hidden by the pipes. Try to get it out. As a result Holmes will decide that his first step will be to eliminate the leaking gas. But there is a problem, he need a better mask to do it. Leave the room through the window and talk about the mask with Finley. He will suggest you to go to the shoemaker.
Go to the Isaac (use map), he is very suspicious of strangers but when you will show him the gem, he will change his attitude to Holmes. This item was stolen from the neighbor child and Isaac is grateful that you had found it. Tell him about your trouble. The Jew will tell you to go to his cousin Abraham, who has pet store located at the same street. After you will Isaac home, go to the shop of another Solomonovitch. Go deeper into the room and talk with Abraham. You will learn that the man has a good mask, but now it is in the cage with a big snake. You have to take it from there.
