Sam was a detective. He was recently married to a girl named Betta. She was very clever and wistful. She also helped Sam in many cases. One day he came home with a lousy mood. Betta asked, “What’s the matter?””No, nothing ,I was just thinking about the robbery of diamonds that took place in the house of a rich woman yesterday” he said “Do you suspect anyone?” she asked gently “Yes, the thief’s name is Zebedee. He was named by the media people. I suspect him because of the clue. Whenever he robs he robs he leaves a clue in a riddle form” said Sam “Then what riddle did he made this time?” she asked. Sam took out his notebook and read out aloud:-
“Under the distance pole of Stewart Street,
The first number name is totally in alphabetical order.
The second number name is totally in totally in backwards of alphabetical order. Find it if you can“
“I forgot to say that the riddle tells us about where he hid it .It is difficult to crack” said Sam.”The case is solved!” said Betta. “How?” asked Sam. “The second line said that the first number name is in alphabetical order so it will be forty and the second line said it was totally backwards so it will be one.” she said “but are there any distance poles in Stewart Street?” she asked “Yes” he said. ”So it is under the pole number 41.The next day they went to the Stewart Street. They found some of the stolen diamonds. It was returned to the rich woman but the search of Zebedee continued. This is how Betta solves the case!!!
