An Erudite Young Man

Angus loved detective stories and he learned how to take in information like a detective. He was observant, so when things disappeared at school, he could usually find it within the hour.

But Angus could never practice his detective work outside of school. Detectives got their clothes dirty. They listened to other people's conversations. They went places without telling their parents. They regularly associated with people below their social class.

After much consideration, Angus knew what he had to do to be himself.

Angus disappeared when he was eight years old.
