It was evening time, people were returning to their houses after work. Children were playing in the garden. Farmers were working in their fields. Youngsters were wandering in the streets. Old people were sitting under a huge tree. Some were playing cards and some were chatting. Women were draining water from the well. The sweet voice of birds were coming as they were singing. pleasant air was blowing.
After some time, there was a complete silence everywhere. Everyone returned to their homes, birds and animals also. The pale crescent moon shone like a silvery claw in the night sky.
There was a family named, Wilson’s family, a very reputed and renown family.At midnight, someone entered at Wilson’s house. Mr. and Mrs. Wilson was sleeping in their bedroom. Suddenly, Mrs. Wilson heard the sound of bare foot walking in the corridor. Then she woke up her husband and when they went downstairs to look over, to their amazement they found that their was no one in the house. they look each and every room, under the desks, behind the curtains, they could see no one. Immediately, they heard the kitchen door slam and the sound of bolts being hastily shot back. When they reached, they saw the window of the kitchen was smashed as someone had broken the window and escaped from it. They thought someone was stolen here for sure. After that they checked the valuable things in the house. they checked in the room where Mr. Wilson used to do their maximum work and spend their maximum time. When they entered the room, they saw that drawer was open and money from the drawer was missing.
Quickly, they called the police.After some time, police arrived and they told the whole incident and also told that the thief could not be anyone else, he is someone known, who knew that they always used to keep their earnings in the drawer in that room. No one from outside could possibly know where the money was kept.
Police asked to Mr. Wilson,”From where the money was missing?”
“Their is a separate room where I used to do my lots of work and I usually keep my money in that room”, he replied.
Police investigated everywhere in the house but their was no clue other than that broken window. Mr. and Mrs. Wilson was very sad as they lost their savings.
Police asked to Mr. Wilson,”Who used to come to your house everyday?”
“Two workers work at my house and used to come everyday”, he replied.
“Who?”
“one is sweeper and second is gardener”
“Did anyone else come with them?”
“yes, sometimes the gardener’s lad came with him”
“And what does he do here?”
