Problems in the City
Mr. Juan, was one of the most important investigators in Europe. Secretly he was a superhero.
When he was a child he had always dreamt about helping people. Juan had an enemy called “The
false Juan”, this wasn´t his real name but the people called him like this because he didn´t want to
say his real name.
In this city there where a lot of problems every day, and Juan was the one who tried to solve them.
One day, the worst thing happened. It was a sunny day, much hotter than in the desert. Juan was
extremely alert because anyone could be robbing anywhere since there was nobody in the streets.
He was in his office. When he heard an alarm. He looked at his computers and he saw there was
a man robbing the most imprtant jewlery of the city. He put his cap on and took his telephone to
call every special police patrol. There were 2 helicopters, 17 cars and as Juan was flying, he
started to think about who the thief could be and what he had stolen. The first suspect was the
false Juan and he stole ...
“Aha!!!” said Juan when he realised what he had stolen
“The magic stone...” Juan shouted angrily. “We must run, it´s very important” He thought. The
magic stone was a beautiful and tiny rock that can do anything you want. When they arrived at the
jewellery they saw the enemy running along the streets. But only Juan could catch him because
he had seen everything from the air. “If we caught him, he would go to jail for 1 year” he repeated
to himself.
So they caught him and... he went to jail
When he went out of jail, he changed his behaviour. Now he is Juan´s best friend.
