Learn how to be a number detective with the Numberblocks.

Plot[]

Detective One is in her office, as she narrates. As she wonders what her next case would be, Nine barges in and desperately asks her for help. Nine explains that he lives on Apartment 9 on the 9th floor of Numerical Towers. At 9 o'clock in the morning, Nine went out to buy a newspaper. 9 minutes later, when he returned, the door was open and everything was gone.

One and Nine go out to look for clues. Nine says he saw a suspicious, shadowy stranger in a coat and hat run past him when he returned to the Towers. Nine describes the stranger as being as wide as the door: 2 blocks wide, with a flat head, and he also states that the figure was smaller than him, due to the fact that Nine could see over their head when they were both 2 blocks wide.

Just then, they see the mysterious stranger run out the door. One and Nine chase them into an alleyway, where they mysteriously disappear. The stranger is discovered in a step shape form, but they run past One and disappear again. One strolls past two Threes who are acting mysterious. The Threes claim they haven't seen the stranger in the hat and coat. One narrates that something didn't add up... or did it?

One and Nine come to a mugshot area with miniature white inanimate Numberblocks 1-10.

Clue 1: The suspect had a flat head when standing 2 blocks wide, so they weren't Three, Five, Seven, or Nine, and it wasn't One because she can't stand 2 blocks wide. The suspect must be an even number.

Clue 2: The suspect was smaller than Nine, so it can't have been Ten. That still leaves Two, Four, Six, and Eight.

They almost forgot Clue 3: The suspect can make a step shape. Not Two, Four, or Eight...

The suspect was Six. They remembered the two Threes in the alley, and figure out that she split into those two Threes.

One and Nine catch Six by the hat. Six claims she's not the thief, and that she's not taking the items out, but she's moving into Numerical Towers. She leads them to the 6th floor, where the mistake is revealed: the 6 on the door is upside-down, looking like a 9! So it turns out that Nine mistook the 6th floor as the 9th floor and went into Six's empty apartment by mistake, assuming it was his own. Nine runs up to the 9th floor, and into his room where everything is right where he left them. Case closed.

Nine apologizes to Six for chasing her. Six feels sorry for hiding as two mysterious Threes, explaining she thought they were "after" her. One decides to make up with Six by helping her move in and welcoming her to the big city.
