The Mystery of the Green Feather🔊

Once upon a time, in the tranquil town of Seralia, there lived an inconspicuous man named Tim. Tim was not your ordinary resident of the town. What made him distinct were his exceptional observational skills. This skill came naturally to Tim, making him the de-facto detective of the town. Any trivial puzzle or a serious crime, Tim was the go-to man.

One day, the town was shaken by a news, unlike any before. The longstanding and revered Mayor of Seralia, Mr. Cavendish, was dead, and worse, it was no natural death, the Mayor was murdered. The whole town was engulfed in fear and confusion, with an atmosphere of distress looming all over. Amid the pervasive turmoil, one man was calm and composed, our detective, Tim.

Tim immediately set to work. He meticulously inspected signs and traces at the Mayor’s mansion, where the crime had occurred. He managed to spot something unusual, a mysterious green feather near the Mayor's body, which he carefully collected. No one in the town had ever seen such a feather. It wasn’t a native bird’s feather, which baffled everyone, but got Tim thinking.

Shortly after, he received news of a strange man spotted in town the previous day. This man was described to have an unusual pet, a bird unknown to the folks of Seralia. Tim connected the dots and constructed a theory which he decided to share with no one yet.

Tim sought more evidence to support his theory. He found out about a man in the neighboring Wilbur town known to possess rare and exotic birds. He traveled to Wilbur, unearthed the identity of the man, Arthur, and met him. Arthur confirmed the green feather belonged to an exotic bird called Crimson Rosella, a rare bird native to Australia.

With this confirmation, Tim returned to Seralia and announced the suspect in front of the town gathered at the city circle. ‘The so-called stranger with the unusual bird is our suspect’, Tim declared, ‘The green feather at the crime scene is of a rare bird named Crimson Rosella, possessed only by the stranger’.

Tim led the townfolk to the inn where the stranger had lodged. The stranger was missing, but Tim found another green feather in the room, confirming the stranger’s guilt. The townfolk were struck with awe and admiration as Tim’s analytical prowess unraveled Mr. Cavendish’s murderer.

Soon enough, Seralia’s local law enforcement stormed the forests and caught the stranger fleeing. An inquest revealed the stranger was a disgruntled distant relative of the Mayor, who’d killed him over an old family feud.

Hence, peace was reinstated in Seralia, thanks to Tim, the humble, unassuming hero of the town. Every time danger and confusion threatened their haven, Tim was their beacon of hope, guiding them through the darkness. Seralia lived on, cherishing their unique protector, solving mysteries and saving the town, with his astute observational skills.
