    This is how I Gary Parkes solved a mystery about a robbery on school campus. It was just past 8:30 I walked into my third period and sat down next to Sarah Willis. When I sat down, She asked me how I was doing and I answered "Fantastic!" She replied with "Well did you do your speech?" Then bell rang and "I said I wrote 3 pages".

I realized it was important when a kid ran into the class and yelled "Did anyone see my paper? It might be in a textbook?" Everyone looked…
