Chapter 3: The Sneaky Snail

The year was 1923, and the art world was abuzz with the news of the century's greatest heist. It was a case of cat burglary, but not just any cat - this was a sneaky snail named Sammy.

Sammy was a master thief, known for slipping into the most secure galleries and making off with the world's most priceless masterpieces. His methods were always the same: a trail of slime, a whispered promise, and a disappearing act that left even the most seasoned detectives baffled.

Our story begins with Sammy's latest score - a rare, one-of-a-kind painting by the great artist, 'Paws the Pup'. The painting, titled 'The Canine's Dream', was said to be worth a fortune, and the art world was abuzz with news of the theft.
