All will be revealed in this sticky volume of InvestiGators!
They run through the sewers and emerge in the bank bathroom. There they meet the bank teller who is holding an umbrella and says, “I brought the mayor to his safety deposit box, only to find it had been emptied . . . but not by the Mayor! InvestiGators, can you help us?” There are two clues in front of them.
Which should they follow?
They notice that the bank teller’s pockets are suspiciously full and make a distinct jingle when he moves. Question the bank teller!
On their way to the bank, Mango and Brash are stopped by a little boy who needs help rescuing his cat from a tree. Maybe this wasn’t the best disguise after all . . .
They find their way to the vault at where they encounter the head of bank security who says, “The mayor’s safety deposit box has been emptied . . . but not by the Mayor! InvestiGators, can you help us?” There are two clues in front of them. Which should they follow?
They look in the empty deposit box and see only a few cracker crumbs, and see more crumbs in a trail leading outside the vault. Follow those crumbs!
They notice a suspicious looking bank teller with an open umbrella that’s obscuring his face. But he’s indoors! And it isn’t raining! Question the bank teller!
The crumb trial leads to the lobby of the bank, where they discover CRACKERDILE munching on some crackers and preparing to make a deposit….both perfectly legal things for Crackerdile to do. Guess they were thrown off track!
