On the sunday morning , Thomas and Philip just had their breakfast and started getting ready to go to the royal palace of Leipzig and meet the queen
Thomas says to Philip to dress up the best today and to be ready an hour before so they can reach the palace on time. Since they both were from the lower middle class they did not have something really classy or elegant to wear.Thomas brings a tiny briefcase with him which consisted all the important things he carried to investigate . They leave for the royal palace in their car.
They reach to the palace five minutes before 2pm , they are welcomed by the royal household servants and they are just amazed by looking at the size of the palace.Then they wait with the other detectives.
Thomas whispers to Philips "Do you still think I have a chance ? One of the biggest detectives Mr Sherlock Monk is alsovhere." Philips nods his head in a yes.
After waiting for around fifteen minutes, the queen finally comes.The queen says "I am sorry for making you all wait and thank you for coming here.As you all are here let us start the selection . As you all know only five out of all of you will get selected . We will call you all according to the number given to you and you will be given a random mystery case and you all can ask the question to suspects showcased by our servants and on basis of some points you will get selected or not . You all must have gotten a number and you need to come according to the number.
Joshua and Philip got the last number 13 . When their chance came they went inside a room the queen was sitting with a paper in her hand and told them to sit,after they sat the soldier depicted them their mystery it was :
