Miyuki and Natsumi were investigating a home robbery.

"I feel so stupid," the housewife said to Miyuki. "I only stepped out for a moment, at about 9:10, and I left the door open, and my purse was stolen."

"It could happen to anyone," Miyuki said reassuringly. "Has anything at this crime scene been changed?"

"Um, no, not really," the housewife said nervously.

"Oh, your clock has changed." Miyuki set the clock back to 9:10, and then removed its batteries to stop it.

"Your partner seems to be rather obsessive-compulsive," the housewife said to Natsumi.

Natsumi sighed. "You have no idea."
