Dr. Emily Evergreen, renowned detective and owner of the esteemed Evergreen Detective Agency, sat at her desk, staring at the cryptic clues scattered before her. The case of the missing mower blade had been puzzling her for weeks.
Her trusty sidekick, a wise-cracking, fast-talking parrot named Mr. Snazz, squawked from his perch, "Hey, doc, I think I see something!"
Emily peered at the bird, who was pointing at a peculiarly placed paperclip.
"Ah ha!" she exclaimed, "The game's afoot!"
