In P.G. Wodehouse's "The Code of the Woosters," the character Bertie Wooster humorously reflects on the idea of a criminal attempting to commit a murder at the Grange, only to discover that both Sherlock Holmes and Hercule Poirot are present. This scenario paints a vivid picture of how daunting it would be for a master criminal to confront two of literature's most renowned detectives in a single location.
Wooster's comment emphasizes the absurdity of the situation, suggesting that rather than a simple crime scene, the presence of these brilliant detectives would turn any criminal endeavor into a farcical failure. It captures the whimsical nature of the narrative and highlights Wodehouse's flair for combining humor with literary references.
