Description

Receiving the invitation for the organizing committee of the Juvenile Deduction Contest, the members of the X Juvenile Detective Agency travel to a small island in the middle of the sea, Chiwu Island. The competition will be held in the island's hemispherical villa "Conch Pearl Manor".

During the two-day competition, apart from the four finalist teams, there are only Mr. Xiong, the leading teacher, and Uncle Hou, the chef, on the island. Mr. Xiong announces the content of the final: the first team to find the conch beads hidden by the organization committee on the island would be the winner of the competition, and the clue is an enameled table clock.

That night, Alan Boe finds that the clock chimes once an hour, and each time a mechanical bird would drill out and "sing" a melody. After analyzing and playing the melody, they conclude that the numbers 1, 3, 5, and 7 were represented by do, mi, so, and si, but they can't deduce anything more...

Many strange things happened on the second day. Mr. Xiong disappears strangely, and Uncle Hou's phone is stolen, with the phone line cut by people. Moreover, the goldfish in the fish tank disappears, and the pet black cat brought by contestant Watson also disappear...According to the rules of the competition, the contestants are not allowed to bring communication devices to the island, so the little detectives are trapped on this lonely island!

After searching, the contestant Watson finds new clues on the watercolor paintings: “The fish are eaten by the ocean. The white bear is eaten by the ice field. The cat is eaten by the night..." but the last line of the poem has been torn out.

If "fish" suggests the missing goldfish, "white bear" suggests Mr. Bear, and "cat" suggests the pet black cat, then it's a "missing teaser"! Everyone thinks of the famous novel "No One Left Alive" by the queen of deduction, Agatha Christie: A group of people are trapped on an isolated island and a spooky ballad becomes a gruesome teaser for a murder...
