16 Return of the King Detective Club

Return of the King Detective Club

Red immediately thought of the location where principal Diana is possibly hiding her briefcase after looking at Dream Academy's whole map. Red remembered what his teacher told him before, the best place to hide a leaf is in the forest.

In Dream Academy, there is a basement where damaged and unusable leather briefcases were thrown. Basically, those leather briefcases will be recycled by the students studying arts and design. Leo and Vladimir didn't noticed that place when they were searching because it was a independent basement, which means it's in another place.

When Red and his gang arrived at that place, they were surprised to find out a hill of leather briefcases. They were cursing just how the f*ck will they find principal Diana's briefcase on that hill of leather briefcases.

Red didn't let the nervousness overcome him though. He looked at his watch and noticed that they only have 20 minutes left to look for principal Diana's briefcase.

"Vladimir look for the briefcase on the right side, Leo look for it on the left side, Vanessa will look in the front side, James will look for it on the back side, while me and Marvin will look for it on the surrounding." Red immediately commanded his squad, not wasting a single second.

The squad immediately got to there places and started searching the leather briefcases that are black. Red was observing his squad, but at the same time, he was also searching for the black leather briefcase.

While Red was walking, he suddenly kicked a black leather briefcase. Red flip it and noticed something.

"This-"

He haven't finished his word yet when Leo suddenly grabbed a briefcase and raised it up high so that everyone will see as he said "Found it!"

"Throw it to Marvin!" Red shouted without any hesitation. Red had already understood how principal Diana game works.

Marvin was taken aback for a brief moment when he heard Red's shout, but he immediately understood what Red meant. He was a assassin afterall, which means his good in rushing to his target. Delivering principal Diana's briefcase is the same as rushing to his taeget.

Leo immediately followed Red without any question. When Marvin received the briefcase, he immediately rush out of the basement, while others followed behind.

When they reached the 3rd floor, they were immediately obstructed by a security team. But Marvin didn't stopped.

Marvin immediately grabbed something on his knee. To everyone's surprise, it was a mini -grappling hook. It's small, handy and unnoticeable appearance, was the reason why no one noticed it being hidden in Marvin's knee.

The security team immediately charged at Marvin upon noticing the mini-grappling hook. They understood one thing, that once this kid throws the mini-grappling hook, the principal office will immediately be reached by him.

Red didn't became nervous and he immediately thought of a plan. When he noticed that the security team charged at Marvin, he looked at Leo, Vladimir and James, which immediately understood what he meant.

Charge!!

Red, Vladimir and James slid on the floor so that they can reach Marvin's side immediately to block the security team.

Leo on the other hand, food the first time thought of a really clever idea. He didn't immediately charged to the security team, he instead walked inside the muscle mens clubroom on the side.

-Inside the room-

The group of muscular man looked at Leo cautiously.

"Sorry for suddenly intruding your room. But I have a really urgent request for you guy! Miss Honey has returned to our academy from her fashion show, but because of the people outside, she can't get inside the academy. So I humbly request for your help! " Leo said with seriousness while bowing his head slightly, making all the student inside believe that what his saying is real and their beloved Ms.Honey, the queen bee of Dream Academy and the manager of their muscle men's club, was really experiencing what Leo described as.

"Please go and help her." Leo said with a pitiful voice. The group of muscular men was immediately feeling rage in there hearts. Wait for us Miss Honey!!!!

After a few seconds, Leo got out of the room with a bunch of male muscular student. The security team was immediately dumbfounded.

They knew that Leo said something inside the room, which is the reason why the member of muscle men's club helped him. They immediately thought, How are we going to block them?!!

The pitiful security team hadn't have enough time to explain to the member of muscule men's club what's really happening when they were immediately rushed by them. What did that guy said inside the room!!! They shouted in their minds as they were immediately flooded by the group.

"Miss Honey wait for us!!"

"Hang in there miss Honey!!"

The group of muscular student of muscular men's club shouted while flooding the hall way. The flooded security team immediately understood how Leo made the group of male muscular student help him. All muscles and with no brains, coincidentally, they are the type of people who are easy to scam!

*Whooshh!!

The mini grappling hook sounded when it was thrown by Marvin to the 5th floor where the principal office is located at.

Marvin jumped while holding the rope with his two hands while his mouth is holding the briefcase. He swing a few times before he balanced his self on the wall. After that, he slowly started climbing the wall.

Marvin arrived at the 5th floor. After arriving, he immediately run to the principal office.

*Bang!

Marvin kicked the principal door open. He was in a rush so his way of thinking is a little vague. For him, kicking the door to open it can save more time compare to opening it using his hands.

"HA!" Marvin breathed deeply before he put the briefcase in front of principal Diana who is currently smiling at him. He then looked at his watch to look at the time.

"11:57"

There is still 3 minutes left on their 1 hour deadline.

"Congratulations! You guys passed!" Principal Diana said with a smile. Coincidentally, Red, Leo, James, Vladimir and Vanessa arrived when she said those words.

Red walked inside with a smile, before he grabbed something below principal Diana's table. it was a black leather briefcase identical to the briefcase they found at the basement.

Red put the black leather briefcase beside the other briefcase and he said "From the very start, there was no briefcase being hidden. "

"What do you mean?!!" Leo, James, Marvin, Vladimir, and Vanessa said at the same time.

"Do you know the saying, The best place to hide a leaf is in the forest? " Red asked. Leo and the gang nodded in reply.

"Since the leaf is hidden in the forest, it only means one thing. The leaf has many leaf similar to it, so why not grab something identical to the leaf you're looking for and present it as the real one?" Red asked. Red didn't wait for anyone to answer before he grabbed a picture on the table.

The picture was showing principal Diana holding a black leather briefcase. The black leather briefcase in the picture is identical to the two black leather briefcase in her table. It was a really normal pic, but if you observed the background of principal Diana, you will notice a cabinet full of black leather briefcases.

Leo and the gang immediately understood what Red meant. It only means that, even if they look anywhere inside the basement, it is still possible for them to find principal Diana's briefcase aside from the place where Leo found the black leather briefcase.

"How did you solve it?" Diana asked, curious on how Red solved her game. She was aware that no one noticed the picture from the very start, because she only put that picture above her table after they left her office. So, it was really a big question for her on how Red found out.

"This" Red said before he put down a 2 by 2 picture of Principal Diana on the table.

Leo and the gang was immediately shock when they looked at the picture. They all know that Red didn't received the briefcase from the very start, so how did he get a picture of Principal Diana? Maybe that's the reason how he solved Principal Diana's game.

Principal Diana laughed and said "Really worthy of the title number 1 student of MS academy for detectives! You've not only passed the game, you' ve also solved how the game works!"

"Thank you for the compliment!" Red said with a slight bow.

"Since you've passed the test, what would you like your club to be called?" Principal Diana asked them, her eyes showing sign of excitement. She was excited to witness Red's club future mysteries to solve.

"Return of the King Detective Club!" Red said with a mysterious smile.
