Wilma stood staring at the lifeless shape on the floor. She told herself she didn’t have time to feel afraid; there was work to be done. As Theodore and the Inspector chatted in the corridor, Wilma wandered into the workshop to take a closer look. Pickle, who had scampered ahead of her to explore that intriguing smell of stew, was pawing at something under the cooker, his nose glued to the floor. Wilma bent down to see what it was. It looked like the broken end of what seemed to be a dart. “Well done, Pickle!” she whispered to the beagle. “This looks like it could be important. We should show this to Mr. Goodman! On the other hand . . .” added Wilma, thinking, “perhaps I should try to find out what it is on my own. And prove myself to Mr. Goodman that way—since the eavesdropping didn’t quite work! I’ll just pop it in my pocket and have a closer look when we get back to Mrs. Waldock’s. Oh! Mrs. Waldock’s letter!” Wilma gasped. “I totally forgot!” But just as she was about to dash off to deliver it, the detective approached, looking stern. “The Inspector and I are heading back to Clarissa Cottage. We need to update the Clue Board, see where we’re at. And you are going to come with us.”

“Oooh!” Wilma replied, eyes widening. “Am I going to help you with some deductions and contemplating?”

“No, young lady,” answered Theodore, frowning. “I am going to have a serious chat with you. A very serious chat indeed.”
