Conny and Clive arrived in

Sunshine city one morning.

They parked their car
outside the bank. Clive
walked into the bank; Conny
stayed in the car and
watched the street. Clive
waited for a few minutes
and looked carefully round
the bank. Suddenly he
pulled out a gun. Clive
shouted: “Don’t move!!!” A
woman screamed. Nobody
moved. The manager
hurried out of his office.
The manager asked:”What
do you want?”. “Give me all
the money”, Clive replied
coldly. The manager opened
the safe and pressed an
alarm bell under the
counter. The bell was very
loud. Clive was afraid; he
fired three times and killed
the manager. At that
moment two policemen
rushed into the bank, Clive
dropped his gun, they
arrested him. Conny was
outside. She started the
car and she escaped.
