Todd was working at his gas station(加油站)at night when he heard over the radio that a bank in Long Island had been broken into by an armed man who had killed the night guard and got away with $ 150.000."One hundred and fifty thousand, "Todd whistled." Here's a fellow who just walks into a bank and helps himself to so much money. "Todd thought of the difficulty with which he managed to get the amount of money he needed to start his gas station. So many papers to sign, so much money to pay back.
The news continued twenty minutes later. The gunman had stopped a car for a ride, and then pushed out the driver .He was possibly heading for the Southern State Parkway in a white Ford 1. License 2 plate(车牌)number LJR1939.The voice of the announcer 3 continued, "Look out for white cars .Don't pick up strangers, and all you folks in gas stations better not do service to a white Ford car."
Todd stood up and tried to see out into the cold night. It was dark but Todd knew the Southern state Parkway was out there .Just then, Todd saw the headlights coming at him and a car pulled in for gas. There it was, a white ford. He saw the number,LJR1939.
"What should I do?" Todd had to make a quick decision.
"Yes, sir?" Todd asked while making up his mind for sure.
"Fill her up" ,the man said sounding like any other driver When the tank (油箱)was full, Todd quickly turned round and pointed 4 a gun at the man ."Hands up and get out!"[NMET97]
