Sommerens sol skinnede ned over den gamle kostskole.

The summer sun shone down on the old boarding school.

Viggo gik langsomt ned ad den brostensbelagte sti.

Viggo walked slowly down the cobblestone path.

Han elskede skolens have, med dens farverige blomster og det blå vand i søen tæt ved.

He loved the school's garden, with its colorful flowers and the blue water in the nearby lake.

Men denne dag var anderledes.

But this day was different.

Der var spændinger i luften.

There was tension in the air.

En vigtig eksamensopgave var blevet stjålet.

An important exam paper had been stolen.

Viggo var ivrig efter at bevise sin uskyld.

Viggo was eager to prove his innocence.

Han var en flittig elev, altid dedikeret til sine studier.

He was a diligent student, always dedicated to his studies.

Han var chokeret, da han blev beskyldt for at have stjålet eksamensopgaven.

He was shocked when he was accused of stealing the exam paper.

Han kunne næsten ikke tro det.

He could hardly believe it.

Hans klassekammerater kiggede skævt til ham, hviskede bag hans ryg.

His classmates eyed him suspiciously, whispered behind his back.

Det var en svær tid for ham.

It was a difficult time for him.

Sigrid, skolens populære pige, havde også svært ved at tro på anklagerne mod Viggo.

Sigrid, the school's popular girl, also found it hard to believe the accusations against Viggo.

Hun kunne ikke lide, at folk dømte ham uden bevis.

She didn't like that people judged him without evidence.

Sigrid var charmerende, men ofte misforstået.

Sigrid was charming but often misunderstood.

Hun havde også en vis oprørstrang.

She also had a certain rebellious spirit.

Måske var det derfor, hun besluttede at hjælpe Viggo med at finde den virkelige tyv, selvom det kunne skade hendes sociale status.

Maybe that was why she decided to help Viggo find the real thief, even if it could harm her social status.

Ingrid var en anden historie.

Ingrid was a different story.

Hun var utrolig ambitiøs og konkurrencedygtig.

She was incredibly ambitious and competitive.

Hun var altid på toppen i klassen og gjorde alt for at blive der.

She was always at the top of the class and did everything to stay there.

Da eksamensopgaven blev stjålet, vidste hun, at hun ikke kunne lade nogen mistænke hende.

When the exam paper was stolen, she knew she couldn't let anyone suspect her.

Ingen kunne få hende til at miste sin plads som den bedste.

No one could make her lose her place as the best.

Hun besluttede at lede undersøgelsen i en anden retning, væk fra sig selv.

She decided to steer the investigation in a different direction, away from herself.

Viggo begyndte sin undersøgelse.

Viggo began his investigation.

Han så på, hvem der havde adgang til lærerværelset, hvor eksamensopgaven blev opbevaret.

He looked at who had access to the teacher’s lounge where the exam paper was stored.

Han talte med dem, der var der på det tidspunkt.

He talked to those who were there at the time.

Sigrid hjalp ham, stillede spørgsmål og fandt små spor.

Sigrid helped him, asked questions, and found small clues.

Hun vidste, at de skulle handle hurtigt.

She knew they had to act quickly.

Ingrid fortsatte med at forsøge at skjule sine spor.

Ingrid continued trying to cover her tracks.

Hun ledte mistanken mod en anden elev, en der allerede havde et dårligt ry.

She directed suspicion toward another student, one who already had a bad reputation.

Men hun vidste, at hendes egne spor stadig kunne findes, hvis Viggo og Sigrid så nøje nok på sagen.

But she knew her own tracks could still be found if Viggo and Sigrid looked closely enough at the case.

En eftermiddag fandt Viggo et vigtigt bevis.

One afternoon, Viggo found an important piece of evidence.

En lille seddel, der havde faldet ud af Ingrids taske.

A small note that had fallen out of Ingrid’s bag.

Den havde en ufuldstændig plan over, hvordan eksamensopgaven skulle stjæles.

It had an incomplete plan about how the exam paper was to be stolen.

Han viste den til Sigrid, og de vidste, at de var tæt på sandheden.

He showed it to Sigrid, and they knew they were close to the truth.

De konfronterede Ingrid.

They confronted Ingrid.

Hun forsøgte først at benægte det, men til sidst indrømmede hun.

At first, she tried to deny it, but eventually, she confessed.

Skyld og frygt havde plaget hende for længe.

Guilt and fear had plagued her for too long.

Hun vidste, at hun ikke kunne skjule sig længere.

She knew she couldn't hide any longer.

Sandheden kom frem.

The truth came out.

Viggo blev renset for anklagerne, og lærerne tog disciplinære handlinger mod Ingrid.

Viggo was cleared of the accusations, and the teachers took disciplinary action against Ingrid.

Viggo og Sigrid stod sammen foran søen.

Viggo and Sigrid stood together by the lake.

Solen gik langsomt ned, og himlen blev orange og lyserød.

The sun was slowly setting, and the sky turned orange and pink.

De følte begge, at de havde lært noget vigtigt.

They both felt that they had learned something important.

Viggo fik mere selvtillid og en stærkere forbindelse til Sigrid.

Viggo gained more confidence and a stronger bond with Sigrid.

Sigrid lærte værdien af ægte venskab og at stå op for det, der er rigtigt.

Sigrid learned the value of true friendship and standing up for what is right.

Ingrid stod alene og tænkte over sine handlinger.

Ingrid stood alone and reflected on her actions.

Hun indså, at hendes ambitioner havde ført hende på en dårlig vej.

She realized that her ambitions had led her down a bad path.

Det var tid til at ændre sig.

It was time to change.

Skolen ville ikke være den samme igen, og det heller ikke for Viggo, Sigrid og Ingrid.

The school would never be the same again, nor would Viggo, Sigrid, and Ingrid.
