100. A special invitation

The two women follow the map of the museum as specified in the note: they go up the first set of stairs, turn right and go in the first door on the left, then up a narrow stairway into a small room.

Natalie: It’s the man in the hat!

Adam: You can call me Bernard, that’s my name!

Alice: Hi, Bernard. I wondered when we’d see you again.

Adam: It wasn’t my intention to take you away from the party, but I wanted to congratulate you on solving the mystery, and on your new jobs!

Natalie: How do you know about that?

Adam: At the Historians’ Club we know a lot of things.… Speaking of which, it is my honour to give you these.

Alice: What are they?

Adam: Open the envelopes. Inside you will find two invitations to be members of the Historians’ Club.

Natalie: Adam, it would be an honour….

Alice: Does that mean we can help you to solve mysteries?

Adam: Exactly! We will let you know whenever we might need your help. Are you interested?

Alice and Natalie: Of course!

Adam: I’m so pleased. Now go back to the party! Your friends are waiting for you. And remember, don’t tell anyone about this! It’s a secret.
