Abu grumbled as he hooked up the microphone to Genie's device. Genie gave him a thumbs up sign.
"Good work, Monkey Boy."he said.
Abu threw him a dirty look. Genie didn't notice and he put on the headphones.
"Hmm..."he said, adjusting volume levels and changing the camera angles. "Perfect."he said.
Abu crossed his arms and watched. Carpet simply watched.
"Now, we'll be able to catch the culprit!"exclaimed Genie.
Abu rolled his eyes. Genie had forbidden them to leave the room in case he needed assistance, and it did no good to try to deceive him. Carpet patted Abu's head.
"Genie?"they heard Jasmine's voice.
Everyone looked up.
"Isn't it time for Ilyas's class? Or should someone else do it?"
Genie pulled off the headphones.
"Nope. Not a chance."he said. "Now you two,"he said to Carpet and Abu. "Keep an eye here, and anything suspicious, you get me."he said, assigning them.
Carpet nodded and Abu looked angry.
"And also keep an eye on the parrot."
He gestured to the screens, where in one, Rasoul was angry in the dungeons, and the other, Iago was stuffing his face full of fruit.
"One for each."said Genie before he left the room.
Iago lay next to a golden bow of fruit, taking apples, grapes, and bananas, and stuffing them in his mouth whole.
"Well, it's too bad the Kid's dad ended up in that Saluk guys' hand."he sighed. "Well, at least we still have the other treasure."
He rubbed his wings together in glee.
"If it hadn't been for that kidnapping! Well, we're now back to where we were before."
He reached under the pillows, and pulled out a sheet of paper. He looked it over.
"Hmm...not very far to go, and we'll have the treasure in our hands."he said, gleefully.
Abu fell asleep on the screen where Iago was being shown, not letting the picture come out good. Carpet went to get a blanket and put it over him, and a pillow under his head. Genie came back in a little while.
"Anything new?"he asked.
He looked at the sleeping monkey. He turned into a rooster, and crowed in his ear. Abu got up almost immediately.
"Well, about time!"exclaimed Genie. "What have we got here
He began to rewind the tapes.
"Hmm, the parrot is treasure hunting."
Carpet nodded to him. Genie wrote that down in his notebook.
"Now, about the guard."
Genie rewinded the other tape. They watched as Rasoul yelled at the other guards, and punched and kicked almost everything in sight.
"When I get my hands on that no good...!"Rasoul was saying. "I devote my whole life to just my job, and this street rat...! Putting criminals not only inside the Palace itself, but now actually accusing me, ME! Of being in the same league as that...!"
Rasoul kicked the chair.
"But I'll show him! I should be awarded for having caught the King of Thieves for the second time! What good did it do me to catch him the first time! If they let him get away, instead of sentencing him to death! But not now! Not now! That other one will kill him. After all, that's how those will usually deal with their problems!"
He walked towards the dungeon where the Forty Thieves were before they had been executed. He had been the one who had found their secret hideout. He had been hoping to capture the King of Thieves, but apparently, he had not been there. However, only seven thieves had evaded capture.
Genie pulled the headphones off.
"We've got the culprit!"he exclaimed, writing it down.
Abu woke up. Carpet immediately began to disconnect everything.
"Now, to tell Al."said Genie, putting everything in a giant briefcase.
Carpet nodded. Abu climbed on Carpet, and they all went to tell Aladdin and Jasmine that Rasoul had set it all up so Saluk could take the children, and hold them ransom to get Cassim.
