What is this confusion?
Uncle, have you seen it too?
- Where? - Benjamin! Come back here!
It is dangerous to chase wild animals.
For a thousand mozzarella!
I did it as fast as possible. Where is the giraffe?
-She has turned the corner. - We have to find her.
- Where's Trap? - I think it's on its way.
- I think it's already here. - Trap, follow me.
See you later!
I can not believe it! A giraffe in Topazia!
It is my favorite animal.
Can the giraffe stick its tongue in its nose?
- It makes me laugh too much! - There's nothing to laugh about.
The giraffe could get injured or cause an accident.
We need to find her and get her to safety.
Do not worry. The Trapper Has Arrived!
I leave a note to the owner.
- It is not needed! - For real?
This is not like you.
Don't we notify the owner?
-He knows. - It's my car.
In fact, I seemed to know her.
It is good news. We will save time.
- Geronimo, where are you? - We are behind you!
Follow it, I take a shortcut.
Everything is fine.
It's okay, baby.
How did it get here?
Look what I made for you: a tasty salad.
Wait to taste the dressing!
Don't do it, that's Geronimo's tree.
He's his favorite ... He'll get over it.
You don't look very fit!
Aren't you okay, giraffe? Have you got a fever?
Etchù!
She likes my salad!
Who could have brought a wild animal here?
I wonder too!
I'll write a report on animal smuggling!
We need to find a safe place to keep the giraffe!
I found it.
Doctor Anta is Topazia's best vet.
Kings and Presidents come to him with their animals.
- Good job! - Let's get the giraffe right now.
- Who tells Trap? - You can't do this to me!
- It's not right! - Trap, don't do that.
That's the right thing for the giraffe.
That's what I meant. Don't do this to Gina!
-This is her house! - Who is Gina?
- That's the name I gave her. - Do not be a child.
Nobody will take care of her better than me.
Love my salad.
We are all worried about the giraffe,
but it cannot be here, there is no space.
He is large and must eat often.
- It would devour all the plants! - I don't want to listen to you.
Stop it, Gina!
What has? Do you feel good?
If I were you, I'd take a step back.
Etchù!
That's funny!
- Doctor Anta? - I'll be with you in a second.
Geronimo, what a surprise and what an honor!
- What can I do for you? - Aah!
- Aah! - I'll keep it.
Could it house an animal for a while?
- Did you bring it with you? - Yes, it's out there.
Let's check.
- Where did you find it? - Near Geronimo's house.
Why did you think of bringing her here?
She is the best vet in town.
Oh! I would say that she is fine!
The clogs are worn by the asphalt.
-A little rest and she'll be back in shape. - Then it's all settled!
She will be here for a while and I will be her cook.
Gina loves my salad and I know what she's allergic to.
To Geronimo's tree, to men's jackets ...
Gina will have plenty of space here to stretch her paws
. By her I know what she needs. Gina will have a lot of space here to stretch her paws
Gina will have a lot of space here to stretch her paws
even if there are some noises due to the construction.
Soon this beautiful fence will be ready. Excuse me.
Here it is.
- What is he eating? - They are acacia branches.
Giraffes feed on their leaves.
Bringing her here was the right decision.
We have to go now but see you soon.
We will try to figure out what to do with Gina.
I don't want to leave her! She needs me!
Gina!
Let's put the video online immediately.
I don't want to give a scoop, I'm worried about Gina.
You have a weird way of showing it.
-How did you get here? - With a surfboard?
Who brought her here and why?
Maybe someone wanted to exhibit an exotic animal.
Let's find out who did it and go to the police.
We don't even know where to start.
If only Gina could talk ... she would tell me everything!
- We have a great relationship. - Of course!
- Trap, you're a genius. - Yes, it's true. Because?
We have the universal animal translator. Let's use it!
She will be the one to give us the answer!
Tell us what happened, we want to help you.
- I'll do it, he trusts me. - All right.
It's okay, little one. Tell Uncle Trappolone!
How did you get here?
- Oh ... - Excuse me so much.
I had to tell you first, giraffes can't talk.
Thing? And since when?
As a child they emit sounds
but as adults communication almost completely ceases.
- Nobody knows why. - Maybe she's just shy.
Didn't you hear what the doctor said?
I know I can do it, please!
I'm sorry but I'm afraid I can't please you.
But I won't bother. I'll be in the garden with Gina.
If you will excuse me, I have work to do.
Trap, see you at the office at lunchtime.
Let's start with breathing.
Breathe in with your mouth, your belly fills with air.
Now you have to exhale through your nose.
- Hi, what's wrong with that tree? - Hi, Pandora.
A giraffe ate its uncle's tree.
- It's just leaves, they'll grow back. - Don't be mad, uncle.
I am happy, indeed I am very happy.
This is the first clue to find out where Gina comes from.
She is always hungry, right?
He will have eaten more leaves from other trees.
If we follow this track, we will discover the route.
- Look over there, uncle! - Great job, Benjamin.
Here we go!
She really liked this.
I don't see other trees eaten up!
Gina couldn't have appeared out of nowhere.
Ok, let's think of other clues.
- What else do we know about Gina? - She is allergic to many things.
When he eats something wrong, he sneezes.
- Watch! - Very good, Pandora.
- Are you okay, Geronimo? - Certain.
I just stumbled upon another clue.
Gina must have got entangled in the cables of the pole.
This way!
It's a dead end!
We must have done something wrong along the way.
- Let's redo the route. - Give me the camera.
- You want the selfie stick. - No, it's not necessary.
Hoof prints, let's follow the trail!
We seem to have found something.
This is a house with a mustache!
Perhaps the famous singer Frank Canzonetta lives there.
Or the footballer Chris Gorgongoal!
Neither, Pandora.
Here lives the billionaire collector Leroy Supergrana.
Collector?
Doesn't he collect wild animals?
Let's find out.
When speaking, a vibration is felt at this point.
Now it's your turn.
Here it is.
Oh, thanks Gina.
- Yup? - Hi, let me introduce myself.
I'm Geronimo Stilton, director of the Rodent's Echo.
I would like to ask you a few questions about his collections.
I would be thrilled. Come on, let's talk you.
Thanks so much.
As you can see here everything is so phenomenal!
There are golf shoes from every brand.
All kinds of alarm clocks, old electric toy trains,
- ballpoint pen caps. - Banana stickers?
I am impressed with his collections.
One more unusual than the other, I would say.
I am tempted to show you what I prefer,
but I shouldn't: you can't understand.
I confess that I too am a collector.
My cheese vault is the best in Topazia.
But this changes everything! Follow me into the garden.
- It makes me shiver. - He has a spotted dress.
Like that of giraffes.
She will soon reveal what we came for.
- Has there been any progress? - Not a sound.
But I still have a few tricks up my sleeve to pull off
that will make her laugh out loud.
Good luck, Trap.
Now I'm going to get something, you wait for me here.
I'll be right back, baby!
This will work for sure.
You fell for it, Gina!
And now where did she go? Aah!
Do you think you are funny?
We will become great friends.
Let me introduce you to my most precious collection.
- The most incredible! - What is it?
It is the largest ant farm in the world.
There are 100,000 harvester ants.
And there is a staff that takes care of their every wish.
A nanny, a cook and a driver.
Has he been hosting a giraffe here lately?
No, God forbid! It would be illegal.
I would never do such a thing.
So why is that tree eaten up?
The branches were eaten by a giraffe.
Ok, I admit it. A giraffe ate my tree.
But she appeared out of nowhere.
One of the staff forgot to close the gate
but I never thought about keeping it.
I was only interested in the nails on his paws.
- At what? - I wanted to add them to the others.
But I found out she didn't have nails.
It had hooves, like a horse.
She then she sneezed at me and walked out the gate.
How rude!
What can I do? Let's see ... what can I do?
It shouldn't be that hard to make you laugh.
Especially with my comic skills.
Look ... ignition!
I said power up!
So funny!
Get back here!
I said stop! I got it?
Here we are. Poffartopo!
Still nothing?
Ugh!
I know how to make you laugh.
With the tickle!
This is a vet's office.
There must also be a feather somewhere.
Let's see what's here. Hey, what are you doing? Gina!
Stop playing!
We are full stop.
Why isn't Trappola here?
Hope you're not bothering the doctor.
I'll call him right away.
He is unreachable, it is not like him to be late for lunch.
Maybe he ate the acacia leaves.
You are probably right!
Come to think of it ...
the umbrella acacia does not grow in Topazia
and yet Dr. Anta had many branches in his garden.
Which garden needs fences over six meters high?
- Nobody. - The workers were working.
The giraffe will have broken the gate while he was running away!
This means that the culprit is ...
Snakes! They are too dangerous to keep here.
We have to take them to a desert island
so they can't hurt anyone.
- Let me out! - Even the talking parrot.
Hi, Geronimo! How's the investigations going?
- Found any leads? - Actually, yes.
Why do you have so many acacia leaves?
No type of animal in Topazia eats them.
- Acacia doesn't grow here. - Why is the fence high?
I import the leaves for medicinal purposes.
I often take care of animals that jump high:
goats, deer and some very athletic chickens.
Athletic chickens?
Is it a coincidence that you installed a new gate today?
Yes, it was a long time since I had to replace the old one.
This is automatic.
I have one last question: where is Trap?
I have no idea. He left hours ago.
He didn't show up for lunch and doesn't answer the phone.
- Ask the giraffe. - Already.
What do you still want?
- Do you have something to hide? - Absolutely not.
I placed the giraffe next to my lab
to keep it from getting scared.
There is nothing in here.
But what... ?
- I'm stuck! - Go away!
The universal animal translator is here!
Great, thanks guys.
If it is true that you can speak once in your life,
now is the moment: do you know what happened to Trap?
Between ...
- Oh! - What happened to him?
The doctor put it in a sack.
Wait, here I am ...
He took me away from my house.
He put me on a boat and imprisoned me.
- Stopped! - Poor me!
Trap is nice.
But I want to go home.
We'll take you home, that's a promise.
- We need to find Trap. - Tell me where it is!
I boarded him on a ship bound for a desert island.
You will never arrive in time.
We will see this!
Do not rush!
How much I would like to go with them.
- We could help them. - How do we reach them?
- For real? - Thanks, Gina!
Here we go!
How wonderful!
Poffartopo, look! Oh no! It's too late!
- Benjamin, Pandora! - We're worried about Trap.
Oh, what are you doing?
I do not like it at all.
Hurry up, uncle!
There are!
- Bravo, uncle! - Great.
- Trap, where are you? - I'm here!
- Here where? - In the box!
- What are you doing here? - My cousin is in a chest.
Impossible! I loaded the crates.
- Trap, say something. - Hello!
Looks like the parrot the doctor gave me.
At least I think so!
Soon!
How are you?
Animal trafficking was stopped.
Police arrested Anta as he tried to escape.
This is so unfair!
I am one of the most famous vets in the world!
Regarding our heroic giraffe,
she is finally headed to Africa among her peers.
We all wish you a peaceful return journey.
- Goodbye, Gina! - Hello!
Goodbye, Gina!
From the Echo of the Rodent that's all, a greeting from Geronimo Stilton.
