Synopsis

When you overheard your parents talk about how Mr. Harrison passed away a few days before, you knew you have to get over there as fast as you could. Everyone knew he was rich; he lived so poor that he had to have a stack of cash stashed away. At least, everyone said he did. Your parents talked about what a shame it was that his house and everything in it will be taken and sold by the city. How his wife had died forever ago and how the crews would come tomorrow to finish clearing out the house and put it up for sale.

That was all you needed to hear. You call your friend, hop on your bike, and ride over to the house as fast as you can. Panting from the exertion (but let's see anyone beat you in a race!), you ditch your bike on the grass and stand in the front yard of Old Mr. Harrison's house. Let's see, to recap: he had no family. No friends. No one to miss him. No one is coming for what's left of his stuff.
If there *is* a treasure somewhere in there, you want to find it before the city comes. Then one more thing comes to mind; a few weeks back you remember seeing old Mr. Harrison directing a moving crew that were hauling a bunch of furniture and boxes out of his house and into a moving van...so fingers crossed the money is still in there.
