Stanley's Investigation

"Hello, Alan." Anne said.

Alan still had a fit of coughing, "Hi, Cheetah." he said in the middle of coughing.

"Did you fall asleep in trig again?" Anne asked Alan curiously, seeing the erasers in her older twin brother's hands.

"Not this time," Alan told Anne, now sneezing. "Mr. Wilson just assigned me for classroom cleanup duty, and I hate cleaning the chalkboards, doing that makes me cough & sneeze!"

"I had to clean the trig chalkboard for Mr. W. this morning just before lunch, and it too made me cough & sneeze! So, I don't blame you for that." Anne told Alan.

Alan set the erasers down on the edge of the now clean chalkboard.

"So," Alan asked Anne. "what's going on?"

"Well in music class with Miss Sanderson, I put Kyle to sleep by playing Beethoven's Piano Sonata Number 8 Op. 13 'Pathétique' II Adagio," Anne told Alan. "and then, on my way out of music class, I saw Stanley coming out of the principal's office saying something about a cheater."

"Annie," Alan sighed. "I don't think we should get involved, this is Stanley's problem."

Back with Stanley, he met Henry & Alexa Goldstein in the school's news room, he knew that William was the sports writer for the school's newspaper, Winston Prep Weekly.

"Henry, Alexa," Stanley said. "I'm in a jam!"

Layla Mitchell, Tom's girlfriend of four months was the fashion column's writer, she looked over at Stanley.

"What do you need?" Layla asked Stanley irritably.

"I came here looking for Bill, I need to find out who's cheated on our history exam." Stanley said to Henry.

"Are you sure that you yourself didn't cheat on your history test?" Henry asked Stanley.

Stanley looked shocked.

"Hey, I worked hard for that A plus I'll have you know!" Stanley shouted at Henry.

Suddenly, one of the other junior high school boys began to wheeze.

"Help me! Somebody," the boy called out in wheezing breaths. "I cannot breathe!"

"Kenneth!" Henry called out.

"I... must... go... to... the... nurse!" Kenneth Jones, the 11-year-old son of Officer Jones exclaimed breathlessly, he was also Flip Chan's best friend.

Now, Stanley had figured they had better get back to the topic at hand.
