A strange mystery unfolded at Mr. Li’s furniture shop last week.

Customers reported that a blue cushion / would vanish every morning / and reappear on a different chair by noon.

The shop owner made an attempt to solve the case / by checking the security cameras.

He rarely saw anything unusual / and the footage seemed straightforward at first.

His initial expectation was that a playful cat was responsible.

However,/ the real culprit turned out to be a parrot / that had learned to move the cushion for its nest.
