THE ELECTRIC SLIDE

“When a suspect takes off running after a crime, it usually means one thing,” Joe said. “They’re guilty of something.”

Frank stared at Brady’s back as he ran. “I bet I know what he’s guilty of. Brady told everyone he wanted a sea star of his own, and what better place to hide it than a lunch box decorated to look like a fish tank?”

“He knew sea stars could be taken out of the water and the right water conditions to keep them in too,” Joe added. “He could have planned the heist in advance and filled his lunch box with a plastic bag full of aquarium water to turn it into a portable starfish tank. That would explain the dripping!”

Frank could still see Brady’s neon-green shirt moving along the rail of the level above. “Let’s go after him!”

“There’s a shortcut to get upstairs at the other end of the rain forest!” Reggie pointed their fin down the hall. “Don’t let him get away with it!”

Frank and Joe took off running. There was another stairway at the rain-forest exit, just like Reggie had said. Behind the stairs was a dark, roped-off corridor with a sign that said UNDER CONSTRUCTION—AQUARIUM STAFF ONLY. Luckily, the brothers weren’t going that way. Halfway up the stairs, Joe glanced down and saw Mira sneaking past the sign. She had a Bayport Aquarium gift bag in her hand and was looking around nervously, like she didn’t want anybody to see her. Joe thought about mentioning her strange behavior to Frank, but right then they had bigger fish to fry.
