The General replied, “I already paid my insurance bill yesterday.” Then Kathy replied, “No my business is sparkling.” Fred said, “No, I have no picture frame.” Allee said, “Yes, I am behind on my taxes, but I can pay them.”

Then Fred pointed out “Hey, remember when the General crashed into the dinosaur bones and the bones flew everywhere? Well, I bet it is under one of the dinosaur bones.” Then, everyone searched and scoured the museum for the pink diamond. The General searched around the funny bone and the thighbone, and it wasn’t there. Kathy searched in the dinosaur’s mouth, and she thought it was there but it wasn’t. Allee searched for it by the knees, but it wasn’t there either. Finally, Fred searched the rib cage, and guess what, it was there!!!

Everyone helped put the diamond back into its stand so it could be part of the exhibit. So the detective says, “Mission accomplished!” And that is how the case of the missing pink diamond was solved

__**From Julia: Daniel, I thought that you were going to have Allee Gatah steal the diamond because you said that she was behind on her taxes. Even if she CAN pay them.**__

Riley-Daniel I thought it was really good. I liked that no one stole the diamond.

Ms. Burgoyne- Daniel, What a clever ending! I love that everyone was innocent!
