30 years later and the burning question still remains.
Is the money still where I left it or has it been found?
That night when the money disappeared I was alone in the room.
The safe door was left open by mistake because I had never seen it open before.
It was always closed for obvious reasons. You couldn’t have all that coin in the open for just anyone to snatch.
I knew I could take the money but I also knew that I would never get out of the building with it.
So why was I mopping the floor over and over?
What chance did I have to grab it and run from a well guarded building?
None, there was absolutely no reason for me to be there still but yet there I was, staring at the impossible and trying to think of a way to get away with it.
I stared and stared.
I looked and thought of all the possibilities.
The windows didn’t open, so tossing it out and then going to get it later was not an option.
There was only one guard at the elevator but the real problem would be the guards at the front door.
All the emergency doors had alarms and the alleys come to the front of the building and the guards.
After looking at it from every angle, I came to the conclusion that it was impossible to do.
But I had to do something.
I just couldn’t leave it alone, but what to do?
I stood there looking around and pondering the possibilities.
Then I saw it.
It was right in front of me the whole time.
If I couldn’t take the money for myself, it didn’t mean I couldn’t take it from them either.
After all it really wasn’t their money.
They did take it away from someone else didn’t they?
Above the safe was a small vent.
It was big enough for the box to fit in and it was just a matter of pulling it out of the wall and putting it back.
I put the mop down and took the box out of the safe.
Then I crawled onto the safe and stood up on it to reach the vent.
It wasn’t hard to pull out.
It was just pushed in.
The vent slid out easily and I bent down and got the metal box.
My curiosity got me and I pulled on the lever to open it but it was locked.
Maybe that was a good thing.
I might have changed my mind and filled my pockets
That was funny.
They locked the box but left the safe open.
I put the box in the hole as far and I could reach and then replaced the vent cover.
I jumped down and then I closed the safe door.
I wiped the door handle down and then left.
Shutting the door I got into the elevator I then preceded to the next floor.
It wasn’t until much later that I realised that my finger prints were all over the stupid box.
Later all hell broke loose and they locked down the building and started searching us.
So all these years I have been walking by this building which is only a 15 minute walk from my house and I still wonder if that box is still in there after all this time, sitting in the same room as the cops; Silently taunting them.
Hmmmmmm, I wonder……
So
Does anyone want the plans to the building?
