[shu-] Sherlock Holmes is in [1] front of the [-_] house where he is investigating a strange case. Scattered 疏 sparsely across the lawn are a couple of 正 pointers and floaties. Sherlock has 疏 sparsely seen this sort of case before. In fact, the evidence for why these are here is too 疏 sparse for him to solve the case.
