ICE-CREAM SCHEME
âDid you hear what they said?â Frank hissed.
âYeah,â Joe whispered back. âSomething about a robotââ
Len and Barry suddenly appeared at the window.
âHi, guys!â Len boomed with a big smile.
âWhat flavor can we get you?â asked Barry.
âThanks, but weâre not here for ice cream today,â Frank said. âWeâre here for answers.â
âYou guys said something about a robot,â said Joe. âWhat was that all about?â
Len and Barry stared at the brothers, their smiles melting away.
âUm⦠you must have heard the word ârabbit,â not ârobot,âââ Barry said. âUnfortunately, weâre out of Hoppity Hazelnut.â
âLike, bummer, right?â Len forced a chuckle.
Frank and Joe knew what theyâd heard, and it definitely wasnât ârabbit.â
âThanks, anyway,â Frank said.
âTry us again, guys!â Len called after the brothers as they walked away from the truck. âWeâre working on a tie-dyed flavor.â
âItâll be called Hippie Dippy Drippy!â Barry shouted.
The moment Len and Barry were out of earshot, the brothers discussed what theyâd heard.
âThose guys were talking about the clubâs excellent robot idea, Frank,â Joe said excitedly. âMaybe the idea was to take Sherbot.â
âThe club was worried that an ice-cream robot would take customers away from Len and Barry. But wouldnât the fans have to know code to get Sherbot to leave the store?â
âSherbot runs on voice commands,â Joe reminded Frank. âAnyone can say âSherbot, follow me.â The question is, follow them where?â
âIola is the president of the fan club. Why donât we ask her?â
When the Hardys reached the Mortonsâ house, they found Chet sitting on the front doorstep. Their friendâs shoulders were drooping, and he hung his head.
âWhatâs up, Chet?â Joe asked.
âYou look miserable,â added Frank.
âThatâs because I am!â Chet said, slumping down even more. âIola is up in her room with the Len and Barry Fan Club. Theyâve got a whole cooler of ice cream, and they wonât let me in!â
âWhy not?â Frank asked.
âTheyâre up to something secret.â Chet sighed. âGo upstairs and ask her yourself.â
Frank and Joe went inside. After saying hello to Mr. Morton, they headed up the stairs.
âChet said the fan club was up to something secret,â Joe whispered. âI wonder if the secret is stealing Sherbot from Robo Freeze.â
Iolaâs room was right next to Chetâs. After Frank knocked, the door opened a crack and Iola peeked out. When she saw it was Frank and Joe, she opened it wider.
âHi. Chetâs downstairs.â
âWe know,â said Frank. âWe want to talk to you.â
The brothers looked past Iolaâs shoulder into the room. The other club members were gathered there, their eyes focused on Frank and Joe.
âSo, can we come in?â Joe asked when Iola didnât move.
âNot today, guys,â she said. âWeâre super busy.â
She was about to shut the door when Joe blurted out, âWait! Weâre here because we want to join the Len and Barry Fan Club!â
âWe do?â Frank murmured.
âNow can we come in, Iola?â asked Joe.
The other club members crowded around Iola at the door. After some whispering among the club members, she turned back to Frank and Joe. âWe thought you liked that robot Sherbotâs ice cream better.
