“I could knock on the door,” Officer Oppen said. “Maybe whoever lives there looked out the window and saw something that will help us.”

“Can I go with you?” Bob asked.

Officer Oppen turned and looked at Bob.

“I’ll be quiet,” Bob said. “I just want to see how a smart police officer solves a mystery.”

“Okay,” Officer Oppen said. “You can come along.”

“I’m coming, too,” Danny and Beth said.

“We’re all going,” Mr. Jansen said.

“Not me,” Officer Davis said. “I’m staying here with the baker and his friend. I need to fill out a report, and I still have some questions.”

“The police are just knocking on doors and asking questions,” the woman with curly white hair said. “Now this is not so exciting. I’m going inside.”

“Me, too,” her friend said. “I’m tired. I need to sit down.”

Most of the seniors went back to the center. Judy, the director of the center, followed them.

Officer Oppen, Danny, Beth, Mr. Jansen, and Bob walked up the front path of the house next to the senior center. They stood on the small porch. Officer Oppen rang the bell. In the middle of the door was a small window. Behind the window was a curtain.

Officer Oppen waited.

Cam and Eric stood in the middle of the walk. Cam looked through the large front window. She watched an old woman slowly get out of a chair by the window. The woman took a cane and walked toward the front door.

The woman pulled aside the curtain and looked out. Then she opened the door.

“Good morning,” the woman said to Officer Oppen.

“We’re looking for a wedding cake,” Danny said. “We’re looking for lots of pastries and cookies, too.”

The woman slowly shook her head.

“I’m sorry,” she said. “I don’t have any cake. My doctor told me not to eat anything sweet.”

“Were you home all morning?” Officer Oppen asked. “Did you look outside?”

“I’m always home,” the woman answered. “I sit in that big chair by the window and read.”
