The Zoo - Chapter 5-

 Mr. Lane went near Margaret and asked what happened. She said "A Monkey named Bingo is stolen.. He was to perform in circus next Friday! Everybody is depressed now! Our Circus cannot be performed without Bingo! Everybody were out for lunch at half past twelve, and when we returned, We found the cage empty! We also had fastened the locks of the cages!"



Darcy and Adam looked at each other in excitement. Darcy murmured. ' We must find Bingo already!" Adam agreed and they both went to Margaret and confidently declared. " We both can solve any mystery, believe us Margaret! Just let us inspect the cage, please!" 



Although Margaret didn't believe them, she led them the way inside. They reached the cage which was labelled as "Bingo the monkey"

They examined the cage thoroughly. Adam cried. "See here Margaret!" He cried, pointing to a small pin lying near the cage. "He used this pin to crack open the lock!" Margaret was consent now. After a moment, Darcy replied. "I think Bingo was stolen by a single person. What do you think, Margaret?"


 

Margaret finally found her voice. "Umm.. I - I think so Darcy." Adam suddenly bent down and picked something hopefully. "It's a hanky. Don't Know who's it is! It also has some alphabets. Let's see.. AW?"



In the hanky, it was labelled as A W.  Mr. Lane made his guess. "Maybe Anderson White? Or Antony Wade? What could it be?" They couldn't find out what the name was....
