A sudden flash of light from a metal reflecting a tiny ray of sunlight that had made its way from the roof caught Summer's eye.
She stopped and looked to the side. The young detective could not spot the source any more since clouds again hid the sun. Mouse meanwhile
had moved along and stood a few yards ahead, also looking at something.
Large cloths of linen covered the larger items, leaving shapes to imagination. Summer straddled carefully a long wooden bar and
and slipped down on the other side to search what seemed to her to have signaled to the sleuth. Maybe something valuable or a beacon of someone
in need could be found there. The girl squeezed through a gap between a big cupboard and a pillar to get closer to the thing under another linen that she thought was the one.
It looked like "Shackles?", Summer murmured. When she tilted her head for a closer examination she heard Mouse calling from further away. "Summer, come over here. Quick. I need your help in..." her voice trailed.
What would Summer do?
- Call Mouse to come back herself
- Follow Mouse, it sounded urgent
