"The Merchant of Venice" is a well-known drama, and it seems to have a standard interpretation. Sherlock has always been a villain, greedy, sinister, vicious, cruel, and people full of "sense of justice" cheered and applauded for his unfortunate ending. However, if we suspend the original concept, I believe that we will read a completely different flavor from this famous play by Shakespeare. A comedy for Antonio and his friends, and a tragedy for Sherlock, the helpless old man tries to win the case with the rules set by the other party, but he is eventually calculated and bullied.
