Gigi Liddy and his bestie Jamie Dowling are constantly at odds.Gigi never took it seriously, but thought it was a symbol of their friendship, because they usually make up quickly, unlike some girls who are narrow-minded and always quarrel endlessly.However, one day during the first week of school in September, the two of them had a big argument, and this one was unusual. Gigi later forgot even the reason for the quarrel, but he remembered that when the two finally forgave each other and reconciled, Jamie blurted out a sentence, which stunned him. "Grandma told me all the scandals about your Liddy family. I shouldn't play with you anymore."

When the voice fell to the ground, both of them fell silent.Gigi is confused by Jamie's words, and Jamie is so embarrassed that he understands that he accidentally said something he should not have said. "What happened to our house?" Gigi asked. "nothing." Jamie turned to go back to school. Jiji blocked his way and asked, "What did your grandma say?" Jamie was going to get away first, and later pretend that these words were just to scare Gigi, but now, this is not just between Gigi and Jamie, the other two boys, Aidan Curry and Mike Ford heard their conversation and came over.

"Say it, Jamie," Aidan urged, "you'd better tell him." "Yes," Mike also said, "it's unnecessary to keep it from him if the whole town knows about it." The bell rang for the end of the morning break, and it was time to go back to class, but these children didn't seem to hear anything. Jiji continued to ask: "What's the matter?" He felt cold all over and was terrified. "It's all about old millet and rotten sesame seeds." Jamie still planned to avoid it. "What the hell is going on?" "One of your Liddys..." Jamie mumbled, as if to say "a jerk," but Gigi didn't catch it.

The duty teacher on the playground is calling them.Jamie walked to the school, the other kids following him. "What the hell did that guy do?" Gigi asked. "Come on, don't mention it!" Jamie pushed back. Aidan Curry has solved the mystery, his voice is so loud that it can make everyone "better `duo` `n "everyone heard: "It's clear to everyone that your great-grandfather, who had the same name as you—Gigi Liddy, killed the priest." Gigi stopped in her tracks: "You're talking nonsense!" "He did kill people, just to grab an old wooden flute." Mike also echoed.

Gigi was furious: "You bunch of nonsense liars!" Aidan and Mike laughed wildly. "The Liddys are music nuts, ha ha!" laughed Mike, and hopped off to the school, imitating the Irish dance stupidly.Aidan trotted aside, humming "The Irish Laundrywoman" out of key.Jamie glanced at Gigi, lowered his head, and followed them. Gigi stood alone on the playground, unable to believe her ears.Now he finally understands why the townspeople always seem to be keeping something from him and his family.The Liddys were a well-known musical family in town, and every Saturday many people from the community came to his house for dances and dance classes.They knew the Liddy's very well, as their parents and even their grandparents were frequent visitors.Liddy's house was famous far and wide, especially in recent years, more and more people came here to participate in the ball, and some people even came from hundreds of miles away or even further away.Things were different with the locals, however, who tried to avoid the Liddys and their music like the plague, refusing to speak to them.For such a strange situation, Gigi was very confused. He always thought it was because his parents were not officially married.But now it seems that maybe this is not the reason?Did a murder really happen?Are you a descendant of a murderer?

"Liddy!" The teacher on duty stood at the door and told him to go in. Gigi hesitated. Hearing this name, he suddenly felt ashamed to step into the gate of the school again, but what else could he do if he didn't go to school?The clever Jiji quickly thought of a way. The teacher waited for him to come in before closing the door, and then asked him, "Why are you standing there like a fool?" "Sorry," Jiji quickly apologized, "I didn't realize you were calling me." "Then who am I calling?" "My name is Barry, not Liddy. Yes, my mother's name is Liddy, but my dad's name is Barry, and my name is Gigi Barry!"
