Moonlit Disappearance

The town fair was in full swing, with colorful stands and streamers lighting up the night under the full moon. Children giggled on rides, and delicious smells of caramel and popcorn danced in the air. It was a night of magic and joy, all centered around the dazzling magic moonstone, perched high for everyone to see.

Suddenly, the moonstone flickered and vanished! Gasps echoed through the crowd.

Lyle Clocks, with his orange hair and detective clothes, felt a sudden chill. His bright blue eyes narrowed. "Well, time to start detecting," he muttered with a playful smile.

Shadows in the Moonlight

Lyle began his investigation by inspecting the now-empty pedestal, a puzzled look on his face. The once-dazzling moonstone was gone, and the fair seemed dimmer without it. As he wandered through the bustling crowd, his nose caught a whiff of sweet candy floss.

"Old Mr. Whistle," Lyle greeted a candy vendor with twinkling eyes and a grin.

"Ah, Lyle! Looking for clues, are ya? Heard a whisper 'bout a chartreuse mirror in the fortune teller's tent," the old man said with a wink.

Lyle's eyes widened with curiosity. "Chartreuse mirror, you say?"

The vendor nodded, his mustache bobbing. "Seems strange, doesn’t it?"

With a playful smile, Lyle decided to investigate the tent next.
