Sure, I'm just finishing planting some roses that you asked me for.John is my gardener. He comes here only on Thursdays. He's the main suspect.The what? I don't understand. What is happening?Good morning, John. Mr. Robinson told me you come here every Thursday to work.Yes, that's true. I come on Thursdays and sometimes also on Fridays. It depends on how much work there is. Mr. Robinson knows that.Well, Mr. Robinson was the victim of a robbery on Thursday. It means yesterday or today someone came into his room and took $500 from his nightstand. We have already asked the girl who cleans the house, and she hasn't seen anything. Plus, she didn't come to work yesterday, so we have some suspicions about you.What? No, I would never do that. I have never stolen anything in my life, officer. Also, I respect Mr. Robinson a lot. He gave me a job when I needed it most. I knew his father and worked for him when he lived in this house many years ago. But when he died, I was left without work for a long time. My situation was worsening, so I came here asking if I could help with the gardening of the house that I used to lovingly take care of, and Mr. Robinson kindly said yes, that I could take care of his garden. I am very grateful.I see and I understand, but we also have to ask you about the money. Someone entered Mr. Robinson's room between yesterday and today and took $500. We have already asked all the family members, and no one knows anything about it. Mr. Robinson has reported the theft of his money, so it is my duty to solve this case and find the guilty party. I have to ask you, John, do you know anything about this money? Tell me the truth.Oh, I'm sorry to hear that, Mr. Robinson, but I don't know anything about that money. As I told you before, I did not take that money, and I could never do anything to harm Mr. Robinson. I'm sorry your money was stolen, but I'm not the person you're looking for. I'm sorry.I see. Well, I have to ask, have you entered the house in the last 24 hours?Just to drink some water today in the morning at about 6 in the morning, but I just went to the kitchen. Mr. Robinson told me I could go there whenever I want, and I just wanted to drink some water. That's all, I promise.So, Mr. Robinson, what do you think of John's version? Do you agree with what he says?Well, now that I think about it, he's right. I gave him permission to enter the kitchen of the house, and if he came in at 6:00 in the morning, well, at that time I was sleeping, and the door was closed, so I guess it couldn't have been him. I'm sorry, John, but we had to ask.Don't worry. I understand. You are worried not only about your money; you are worried that there is a thief in your house, and that is a problem. I understand.Thank you, John, and I'm sorry, officer. John is innocent. Sorry again, John.Well, I'm sorry, Mr. Robinson, but I can't do more. If only we had some clue as to where your money is.
