Addison returned with the librarian, who scolded him for wasting time when it turned out there was no hedgehog. He was very confused and a little worried. What if the poor thing got lost? He looked at his notebook and let out a frustrated sigh. Hedgehogs were animals, after all so he supposed it was a bit much to expect it not to do its business wherever it pleased. It didn't mean it wasn't annoying, though.

Wiping off the notebook, he decided he would ask a few others if they had seen a hedgehog around or knew someone who had lost a pet. With any luck, the owner of the creature would find it soon enough.
