[00:09.67]Protecting the innocent
[00:13.22]Pansy wanted to write an article on detectives for the school newspaper.
[00:21.39]To get information,she interviewed Detective Ken.
[00:28.06]This is part of the interview.
[00:32.50]PANSY:You say that you like working as a detective.Why?
[00:39.34]KEN:Let me tell you about a recent case that I dealt with Pansy.
[00:46.21]Mr Li is a very rich man who lives alone and enjoys collecting things.
[00:56.16]He purchased a vase for two million yuan.
[01:03.24]He showed it to only two people-his friends Jill and Jenny.
[01:12.20]Then he locked it in the safe at his house.
[01:17.95]That night,someone stole it.
[01:22.42]Li reported the theft,and I went to his house to look for clues.
[01:30.07]PANSY:Did you find any?
[01:33.54]KEN:Yes,a black pearl earring near the open safe and,
[01:42.09]outside the open window of the room,
[01:47.05]I saw a lot of mud on the wet ground.
[01:53.21]Inside the room,thecarpet was spotlessly clean.
[02:00.27]KEN:I interviewed Jill and Jenny.
[02:05.13]They both denied stealing the vase.
[02:10.19]But I noticed that Jill was wearing a black pearl necklace--but no earrings.
[02:20.96]PANSY So Jill was the thief?
[02:24.80]KEN I didn't know. I needed proof.
[02:30.07]A good detective never jumps to conclusions.
[02:35.82]I showed Jill the earring,and she admitted it was hers.
[02:43.58]She said someone had stolen it from her house a month before.
[02:51.52]I checked her story.It was true.
[02:56.56]PANSY:So Jill was no longer a suspect.
[03:02.13]But what about your other clue--the mud outside and the spotless carpet inside
[03:11.19]KEN:That told me that probably no thief broke into Li's house.
[03:18.95]So I questioned Li and,in the end,he admitted stealing his own vase.
[03:28.98]He had bought insurance for it.
[03:33.66]The insurance company would pay him two million yuan if the vase was stolen.
[03:43.22]PANSY:And who stole Jill's earring?
[03:47.76]KEN:Li did that as well.
[03:51.63]He tried to make sure that Jill would go to jail instead of him.
[03:59.57]PANSY:So now Li is behind bars.
[04:05.13]KEN:Yes, and Jill is free.
[04:09.99]My job is to protect the innocent as well as find the guilty.
[04:17.65]That's why I like working as a detective.
