and that there was a terrible mess in the front office.
“There's been a burglary” flashed through his mind.
But just to make sure, he went downstairs to the front door, checked the lock and found everything closed.
“Bep and Peter must just have been very careless this evening,” Mr. van D. concluded.
He remained for a while in Mr. Kugler's office, switched off the lamp
and went upstairs without worrying much about the open doors or the messy office.
Early this morning Peter knocked at our door to tell us that the front door was wide open
and that the projector and Mr. Kugler's new briefcase had disappeared from the closet.
Peter was instructed to lock the door. Mr. van Daan told us his discoveries of the night before, and we were extremely worried.
The only explanation is that the burglar must have had a duplicate key, since there were no signs of a forced entry.
He must have sneaked in early in the evening, shut the door behind him, hidden himself when he heard Mr. van Daan,
fled with the loot after Mr. van Daan went upstairs and, in his hurry, not bothered to shut the door.
