The Curious Cases of Hopps and Wilde: The Treasure Haunt
1 1 It was early in the morning when Chief Bogo gave Officers Judy Hopps and Nick Wilde a special assignment They were to patrol a typically quiet section of town that was suddenly teeming with tourists Marsh Market Nick let out a frustrated sigh We're spending the day with juggling sea lions and sludge slingers while there are over two hundred prisoners prisoners running free and doing who-knows-what all over Zootopia Prisoners running free thanks to you said Judy with a smirk During their last investigation Nick had accidentally released all the prisoners from their cells Thanks for the reminder partner said Nick
