In the quiet town of Elmwood, Detective Lily was known for her intelligent mind. One sunny morning, Mrs.
Jenkins, a rich lady, called her in a hurry.
“Detective Lily, my precious necklace is missing! It’s been passed down from my grandma. Can you help
me?” she cried.
Detective Lily promised to find the necklace and went to Mrs. Jenkins’ home. She started her investigation
(调查) in the bedroom where the necklace was last seen. She noticed an open window and a small piece of cloth
caught on the window. Muddy footprints and strange marks on the floor near the window made her suspect a break-

She then interviewed the household staff: Mr. Higgins, the cook; Miss Emily, the servant; and Mr. Wilson, the
gardener. Mr. Higgins explained he was in the kitchen, but his muddy shoes matched the prints by the window.
Miss Emily said she was cleaning the dining room, and Mr. Wilson insisted he was working in the garden.
Detective Lily followed the muddy footprints leading from the window to a small hut at the garden. Inside the
hut, she found Mrs. Jenkins’ necklace hidden in a toolbox. Just then, Mr. Wilson arrived.
“Detective Lily, I found the necklace by the roses. I ________, but I was really short of money to pay for my
mum’s operation. I’m sorry,” he said.

proof of the coat and the mud. He admitted he had planned to steal the necklace but dropped it while escaping. He
didn’t know Mr. Wilson had found it.
With the case solved, Detective Lily returned the necklace to an overjoyed Mrs. Jenkins, who thanked her
again and again. Detective Lily’s fame grew in Elmwood. Whenever someone needed help, they knew they could
depend on Detective Lily to solve the case.63. The case was about a missing necklace, wasn’t it?
