The Stolen Jewel

Chapter 2

"Hello girls." He said.
"Would you like to talk inside and get some tea?" Elizabeth said distracting him.
"Why thank you girls, but I must get going."
"Sir I mean what's your name?" Ellie asked with curiosity in her eyes.
"John Harper." He said.
"Well Mr.Harper have you heard about the stolen jewel?" I asked.
"Yes I'm actually on the case right now. I came to tell you that we haven't found any evidence. We also would like you to come to a lunch meeting tomorrow about the case. Will 2 o'clock work?"
"Why yes. Can my friends come with me and my friend Roxy too." I said.
"Who's Roxy?" Mr.Harper said suspensiously.
"She in the restroom." Ellie added quickly.
"We'll see you tomorrow. Bye!" Elizabeth said closing the door. "Wow he had a lot to say let's see if Roxy is upstairs yet."
We went upstairs but Roxy wasn't there yet then we heard the stairs creak.
"Hey Roxy did you find anything?"
"Yep his license plate was FBI 590." Roxy said sitting at her laptop looking it up.
"Who is it?" Ellie asked although we knew who it was.
"It says Copper Harrison." Roxy said with concern.
"But he said he was John Harper and the he was a detective." Ellie said.
"Here it says he was a jewel thief and a murderer." Roxy said really concerned now,then she scrolled down and saw a picture and all three of us gasped.
"That was John Harper looked like." Elizabeth said almost screaming.
"It also says that he escaped from prison... and there's a reward of $15,000!"
"What we should turn in his license plate. I'll call my dad." Ellie said since her dad was the chief of police.
While she called I told Roxy to look up John Harper on the laptop.
It said he died in a car accident YESTERDAY!
"Ellie come look at this." I said while her dad got a paper and pen.
"I'm definitely telling him this." Ellie said almost businesslike.
"Well do you want to come over my house for a little bit." I said when Ellie got off the phone. "And what did your dad say?"
"Ya maybe Copper will go to your house next." Elizabeth said trying to scare us.
"Ya like that will happen." Roxy said trying to be brave,
"Sure I don't have anything else to do. Should I bring clothes to sleep over."
"That's fine with me," I said reached ng for my phone to text my mom and see if it was fine.
"She said yes!" I said looking up.
"Woop woop!" We said jumping on Roxy's bed.
Roxy got her stuff together and so did Ellie. We jumped in the car when we saw a license plate that said...FBI 590.
