Chapter 14 Everyone is Busy

     Adrien finishes sweeping the place; he thinks it looks so much better now.   He goes to the kitchen to find something to eat. He hears something that startles him.  "Whoa, what is it or who is there?" Adrien calls out.

    The police officers discuss some important details with one another.

    "What did you find Sergeant Juleka?" Chief Raincomprix asks.

   "The villain agent Watermelon's recruit is Agent Sea Urchin," She says.

   "She is dangerous," Sergeant Juleka remarks.

   "Agent Sea Urchin has a boyfriend," Sabrina adds.

  "I believe he does not know she is a villain," Sabrina tells them.

"Tsk, tsk, how can the man not notice she is  a crook?" Chloe asks.

" I think, Chloe has a good point there," Nino says.

"You agree with me?" Chloe asks. She looks at Nino in surprise.

  "Nino, not everyone can notice the obvious all the time. Sometimes, people in love are just so in love they can not tell the difference between a snake and a rat,"  Juleka remarks.

  "I agree, Sergeant Juleka,"  Officer Sabrina says.

 "Girls, keep it down!" Chief Raincomprix  blurts out.

"Yes, sir, " Officer Sabrina replies.

"Whatever you say, Captain Roger!"  Juleka says.

    "Anyway, Chole, Nino, and Sabrina I need to give you your assignment,"  Officer Raincomprix announces. 

    Chole, Nino, and Sabrina listen as their boss explains the situation to them.

      The three of them look at him  in surprise when he finishes.

   "Wait, you want us to do what?" Sabrina freaks out.

    "Under cover, you can not be serious!" Chole  protests.

       Nino just laughs at the girls.  He thinks they are over reacting about the entire thing.

     


 Meanwhile with Adrien in the safe house, shh...it is a secret, you know.

  Adrien thinks the detective Marinette is pretty. He hears the funny noise again. This angers him since the place is supposed to be safe.  "Who is it?" Adrien asks.

"Relax man, it is just me," Max says. 

"Look, I admit it made me worry when the media announced you were dead," Max remarks.

"Max, you may be my stepbrother, but almost gave me a heart attack," Adrien says.

    Adrien wonders how much longer he has to stay in the house. He smiles as he daydreams about the private investigator chick who saved his life.

   "Adrien, sorry about that man, it is just good to see you," Max points out.

  "It is good to see you too," Adrien  answers.

   "How did you find me?" He asks.

  "Let me just say I have my secrets as you have yours," Max remarks.


     Marinette wears some pink glasses now as she works at her computer to avoid eye strain. She thinks Adrien is rather cute.  She laughs and gets back to work. She hums, finds herself distracted with another daydream about Adrien.  She wonders if she will solve this puzzling case soon.

   
 Now, the criminals are too happy to know Agent Sea Urchin is in charge for the moment. 

  Agent Starfish thinks the boss expects me to obey Agent Sea Urchin's orders. She rolls her eyes in dismay at the very idea. She figures it would be just like him to put someone else in charge since her partner let the prisoner run free!  She wishes she could just strangle him right now and be done with it.

   "So here is the plan, " Agent Sea Urchin says.

   "I am not happy to be given orders by a girl let alone a  recruit,"  Agent Snagglepuss remarks.

   "Agent Watermelon, must we listen to her?"  Agent Swordfish (Nathaniel) who was late to work asks.  

  "Yes,  Agent Swordfish, I sure do, and she is not as a new as she seems to be everyone,"  Agent Watermelon says.

"He is right I have been an agent for many years now," Agent Sea Urchin says.

"You are kinda pretty!" Agent Swordfish says.

"What did I tell you about flirting?" Agent Watermelon the boss asks.

Agent Starfish grins as the boss gets onto Agent Swordfish for being a flirt. Agent Snagglepuss just glares at the others to show his annoyance at once.

"Hey, boss! I am not late am I?" Agent Salmon (Luka) asks

"Agent Salmon you are just on time." Agent Watermelon says.
