[WP] You woke up to find that your apartment had a pile of money inside. The bank is also reporting a robbery that had occurred last night.

"How's the tea?"

"Perfect. Not too hot. Just how I like it."

"Well, what's that then?"

"Pile of money, is what I suspect. It was here when I woke up."

"Win the lottery did you, and forgot to mention?"

"Bank next door was robbed last night. My guess is, the put it here."

"Who would they do that?"

He got up and walked over to the wall and wiggled a brick loose. We could hear the investigators in the bank next door.

"No signs of forced entry. Front door left unlocked. Vault still locked up tight. Di you really expect us to believe you have no idea how that could happen? You, the only one with the keys to the building and the combination to the vault."

"Sounds like that fellow might be in a spot."

"Mr. Periwinkle. Bank manager. Denied me seven times for a loan to fix the roof."

"And they just... what? They shoved the money through a hole in the wall one bundle at a time?"

"That's my guess."

"So what are you going to do?"

"Well, I imagine I'm going to be visited by whoever did this looking for their money. I suppose we'll see how that goes."
