Detectives in Togas 3

The next day of school, after the boys have a fight, everyone shows up at school, except for Caius and Rufus. When they get there though Xanthos isn't in the room like normal. The boys wait for a while, but then decide to go look for him in his house. (His house is attached to the school.) In the back of the room the boys find a wardrobe and strange noises are coming from it. When they finally decide to open it the boys find their teacher tied up, gagged and not able to move, so they untie him. Xanthos tells them that a burglar came into his house late last night beat him up, tied him up, and threw him into the wardrobe. They all started looking around to see what night be missing, but no one could find anything missing except for a few simple mathematics books. Xanthos is so badly hurt though, that he tells the boys there will be a vacation from school for a while. Then he adds that Rufus can come back, he just said that to give him a really good scare. With that the boys decide to leave and go find Rufus to tell him the good news, there won't be any school for a while!
