24. Artur
The gardener, Artur, enters the room. Alice asks him several questions about the day of the robbery. Artur is tall and slim and has brown hair. He wears glasses, which are broken and have been stuck together with tape.
Alice: Good morning, Artur.
Artur: Good morning!
Alice: My name is Alice. I am investigating the robbery. Can I ask you some questions?
Artur: Sure! No problem. Are you a police officer?
Alice: No, I’m not a police officer. I’m just helping Mr. Windsor.
Artur: Very well. What would you like to know?
Alice: I just want to know if anything unusual happened in the house yesterday, the day of the robbery.
Artur: Hmm…. Yes, I think I saw something strange…. But I’m not sure.
Alice: Why aren’t you sure?
Artur: See my glasses? They’re broken! They broke yesterday morning while I was working. So I couldn’t see very well.
Alice: What did you see?
Artur: It was a very hot and sunny day. However, around 10:30 in the morning I think I saw someone leave the house wearing a big coat and a hat.
Alice: A hat?!
Artur: Yes, I couldn’t see very well, but I’m almost certain.
