One evening Mr Green was driving his car along a country road. He had been to London where he took 250 pounds from the bank. He put the monkey in his pocket . At some part of the road a man in shabby clothes stopped him and asked for a lift. Mr Green told him to get into the car and continued his way. He talked to the man and learned that the man had escaped from prison and thought of his 250 pounds. Suddenly he saw a police car and had a bright idea. He began to drive the car fast . He looked back and saw the police car nearling his car . It soon overtook him and he had to stop.The policeman took out his note book and wanted Mr Green's name and address. Mr Green wanted to tell the policeman about the robber sitting behing but the man had taken out a gun and had put it to Mr Green's back. Mr Green was afraid of being shot so he said nothing. He only asked to be taken to the police station but the policeman said: You’ll have to appear at the police court later… ' He gave Mr Green a talk about dangerous driving and went away. Then Mr Green started up his car again. He thought his 250 pounds were lost.When they were near a small town the robber said to Mr Green: 'You have been ngood to me. This is the least I can do in return'. And he handed Mr Green the policeman's notebook.
