So, today I finally got to Scaraba to track down Pokey. Man, was it scorching! 104 degrees today. Good thing I packed some wet towels. When I got to Scaraba, there was something interesting floating around. The locals were complaining about something smelly near their flea market. Boy, it was smelly. People think I'm smelly, but that stunk! Anyway, at first I suspected the camels, but then somebody told me a chubby kid did his business there. Yup, sounds like Pokey Minch.

Oh my gosh.... I cant believe I'm going to do this! My mind raced as I reviewed the crime's facts. Number 1: Before he arrived in Fourside, Pokey became a top-leader at the famous, but short-lived Happy-Happy Religious Group. When my number one client, Ness, toppled the Group, Pokey ran away like a little punk. But one clue baffled me to no end. They say he stole the goods in the food basket. But he only took the bananas, and left the eggs alone. Who would be dumb enough to leave a basket of fresh eggs and he took the basket of bananas. He could raise poultry and make thousands.

Fact Number 2: Pokey became Monotoli's political and financial advisor in only four days. He climbed Monotoli's ranks in just half a week! And he isn't known to know anything about either topics. It doesn't make sense, unless he has the ability to control people. A dark, evil power.

Fact Number 3: Pokey is an inconsiderate retard. Well, thats not a fact, but it felt good to say. It's only a widely accepted opinion...

Well, I realized that a DNA test would help wonders in the case. I picked up his, err... I mean it's droppings and I'll rush it back to the lab in Winters. More to come on this case.
