SHELFY SMITH AND THE CASE OF THE PIZZA

Shelfy smiled.
"When you order a pizza, it's almost impossible to cut it into an uneven number of pieces. So, when the Uglies ate it, they couldn't offer me a piece-- they had to offer me two or none! Coming from the fact that Ugly Jule ate a slice BEFORE it got to the Shed, there were an uneven number of slices-- therefore proving that they stole the pizza."
Davey thanked her and ran off.
"Wait, wait, wait!!!" said Walker, even though Davey was out of hearing range by now. "You don't thank me? I...um... protected you against the Uglies!"
Shelfy patted Walker's shoulder and walked away. Walker slowly lugged behind.

SHELFY SMITH AND THE CASE OF THE DRINK

The Uglies hated the world. They hated their town. They hated the name of their town. They hated all the great people there.
They thirsted for power. They thirsted for fear. They thirsted for revenge against Shelfy and Walker. But they thirsted for something even more.
A drink.
They decided to steal some, which was their normal custom. But everywhere they went, there wasn't a drink in sight.
After a while, they saw the Walking Shelf Agency walk into Becky and Joey's Ice Creame Shoppe. They knew this was their chance-- so they went inside for an ice cream, too.
Walker pretended to text on his phone, when, in reality, he recorded the two Uglies. Shelfy looked over his shoulder and pretended to comment on his texts. The Uglies didn't suspect a thing. Shelfy then went up to the counter behind the Uglies while they requested for a job.
"A JOB?!?!" whispered Walker. He was shocked beyond belief. Just then, Becky, one of the people who ran the shoppe, ran into the storage room and back out. She ordered a lockdown.
"WHO STOLE MY GALLON OF LEMONADE?" she shouted and everyone looked at each other. Ugly Red ran out of the staff room and went up to the detectives.
"Help, help! Jule's in the next room, beaten up by the thief! Come quickly!" he said, and led the way to an even bigger storage room. Shelfy noted that it connected to the other storage room where the lemonade was. She also saw Ugly Jule on the floor, crying. His tears ran from his eyes to his chin, touching his nose and his lips.
"Oww... oww.... a man in black and a ski mask just hit me on the head... ran off... with... lemonade... I tried to stop..." he muttered. Walker went to tend to him while Shelfy looked around-- there was a broken window and a heavy piece of wood nearby, torn off a storage rack.
Walker shook his head. "He's definately got a bump. We've got to catch the thief.
"Y..yes.." Ugly Jule said, and sniffed.
"We've already got them," said Shelfy, as Becky and Joey came in. She pointed to the Uglies.
"They stole your lemonade. I know they did; let me explain."

HOW DID SHELFY KNOW?

idk, i'm going to take a guess that red bonked him on the head so that he would look innocent, so then red ran w/ the lemonade. i'm probably wrong. or that the ugly betrayed jule and they took the lemonade. idk
