37. The interrogation

The thieves are sitting next to each other in the interrogation room. Peter goes in behind Detective Smith and closes the door.

Thief 1: Shouldn’t there be a mirror in this room to watch and listen to us from the other side?

Thief 2: Be quiet!

Peter: Why does everybody always ask the same question? It’s not a Hollywood film!

Laura: No-one is listening to what we say. It’s a normal room.

Thief 1: Ok, are you going to question us again?

Laura: Listen, we have some questions here. Although, in reality, I don’t really want to ask you this without letting you know something else… I suspect there is an informant, a whistleblower inside your group of friends.

Thief 1: I knew it!

Thief 2: Be quiet for once! We mustn’t say a word. Didn’t you get that?

Thief 1: Who is the whistleblower?

Laura: I’m not sure, but it could be anyone who likes to paint.

Thief 3: Painting? Like someone who paints houses?

Laura: No. Painting pictures, art. Does that sound familiar to you?
