I was eager to tell Mila about my plan to catch the thief who took Eddie’s million-dollar idea. But first, I wanted to check my notes. I fished into my backpack, looking for my detective journal. I found it all right. Something was tucked inside it. “Look at this!” I whispered to Mila.
It was a note on purple construction paper. It read:
“Someone must have sneaked it into your backpack yesterday,” Mila observed.
I nodded, my jaw clenched. That did it. Now it was personal. Nobody messes with my detective journal. I was going to catch this blackmailer—if it was the last thing I did. But in the back of my mind, another thought stirred. I asked myself, What did the blackmailer see me do? I suddenly remembered the butterscotch I nipped from Ms. Gleason’s candy jar. Could someone have seen me?
Mila poked me in the ribs. “Earth to Jigsaw,” she prodded. “Are you going to tell me about your plan or not?”
“Oh, yeah, sure,” I said distractedly. “I need to check out the principal’s office. Mr. Rogers might have stolen Eddie’s million-dollar idea.”
Mila frowned. “No way, Jigsaw. He’s the principal.”
“I saw him at the scene of the crime,” I replied. “He’s just another suspect to me.”
I stared out the bus window, lost in thought. Finally, I said, “If only I could find a way to get into his office.”
Just then, Bobby Solofsky gave a loud snort from the back of the bus. Mila pulled on her long black hair. “You could try Bobby’s method,” she suggested.
“How does he do it?” I asked.
Mila answered, “He gets into trouble.”
