The mystery comes to another "happily ever after" style ending, with the thieves safely in jail, the stolen loot returned (of course the police were able to track down all the victims of the pickpockets and return their stolen goods to them), and the DTB Cousins receiving a bonus for their efforts - tickets to Scotland where they would become involved in the Loch Ness Monster Mystery. Although we had the foresight to set up the next adventure, it never got written. After writing four books, without any of them getting published, I guess we kind of got a little discouraged. We started a few other partial stories, but this was our last complete one until The Narrows Escape. I hope you've enjoyed reading the story:
The
DTB Cousins made their way over to the old mansion with Cheif
Harper. On the way, Troy asked, "Where do we look for the
money?"
Brad was thinking of the same thing.
"Don't worry," said Darin. "When I was tied up they
said something like having money hidden somewhere in that main
cavern."
"It
must be all that lute
that was the money they were talking about."
They opened the trapdoor and went down the steps. They came to the
main cavern and everyone started searching for places where the money
could be hidden.
Finally, Brad got kind of worn out and leaned against a stalagmite to
rest a little. It triggered part of the rock wall to slide open and
inside was a safe.
Cheif
Harper took out some
equiptment to open safes and in
no time they had the money.
They
went back to the police station and Chief Harper had his men return
the money to its owners. The chief gave the DTB Cousins three free
tickets to Scottland
for an extra treat for solving the case and then they went home to
tell their moms and dads.
A
couple of days later they decided that they would use those tunnels
and caves and put their private office down in there. They bought a
lot of nice new equiptment
to go in their office with the treasure money.
The
End
