It: Luca camminava lentamente lungo il canale principale della Laguna Veneziana.
En: Luca was walking slowly along the main canal of the Venetian Lagoon.

It: Era Ferragosto e l'aria era piena di voci, risate e odore di cibo.
En: It was Ferragosto and the air was filled with voices, laughter, and the smell of food.

It: Ma Luca non era lì per festeggiare.
En: But Luca was not there to celebrate.

It: Un noto artigiano del posto era scomparso.
En: A well-known local craftsman had disappeared.

It: Si chiamava Marco e tutti lo conoscevano per le sue meravigliose creazioni in vetro.
En: His name was Marco and everyone knew him for his wonderful glass creations.

It: Chiara, la migliore amica di Marco, correva verso Luca.
En: Chiara, Marco's best friend, ran towards Luca.

It: "Devi aiutarmi, Luca! Marco è scomparso da tre giorni!" disse, con le lacrime agli occhi.
En: "You have to help me, Luca! Marco has been missing for three days!" she said, tears in her eyes.

It: Luca sospirò profondamente.
En: Luca sighed deeply.

It: "Farò del mio meglio. Dobbiamo cominciare subito a cercare."
En: "I'll do my best. We need to start searching immediately."

It: Marisa osservava tutto da lontano.
En: Marisa was watching everything from a distance.

It: Con un sorriso furbo, pensava ai suoi segreti.
En: With a sly smile, she thought about her secrets.

It: Se nessuno trovava Marco, lei avrebbe continuato a guadagnare da sola.
En: If no one found Marco, she would continue to profit alone.

It: Si avvicinò a Luca e Chiara con fare amichevole.
En: She approached Luca and Chiara with a friendly demeanor.

It: "Ciao, ragazzi. Ho sentito che Marco è scomparso. Posso aiutarvi?"
En: "Hi, guys. I heard Marco is missing. Can I help you?"

It: Chiara era disperata.
En: Chiara was desperate.

It: "Per favore, sì! Qualsiasi aiuto è buono."
En: "Please, yes! Any help is welcome."

It: Luca, però, era sospettoso.
En: However, Luca was suspicious.

It: Sentiva che Marisa nascondeva qualcosa.
En: He felt that Marisa was hiding something.

It: "Va bene, Marisa," disse. "Ma dobbiamo essere onesti l'uno con l'altro."
En: "Alright, Marisa," he said. "But we need to be honest with each other."

It: I tre iniziarono a cercare indizi per l'isola.
En: The three of them began searching for clues around the island.

It: Visitavano botteghe, parlavano con i pescatori, ma nessuno sembrava sapere nulla.
En: They visited shops, talked to fishermen, but no one seemed to know anything.

It: Ogni tanto, Marisa fingeva di avere qualche informazione, ma Luca non si lasciava ingannare.
En: Now and then, Marisa pretended to have some information, but Luca wasn't fooled.

It: "Ehi, Luca, guarda questo," disse Chiara, trovando un piccolo foglio di carta nascosto sotto un vaso di fiori.
En: "Hey, Luca, look at this," Chiara said, finding a small piece of paper hidden under a flower pot.

It: Sul foglio c'era un codice strano.
En: On the paper was a strange code.

It: Luca si sedette su una panchina e iniziò a decifrare il messaggio con Chiara.
En: Luca sat on a bench and began to decipher the message with Chiara.

It: "E un... cantiere di barche... segreto."
En: "It's a... secret boatyard."

It: Quando capirono il messaggio, decisero di andarci subito.
En: When they understood the message, they decided to go there immediately.

It: "Ora basta, Marisa," disse. "È ora che tu affronti le conseguenze delle tue azioni."

It: Le autorità arrivarono e portarono via Marisa.
