questions: Mary, Theo and Clara. Can you help me to find out the thief?
Policeman: Good morning Mary, I would like to make you a question. What were
you doing yesterday at 9 o´ clock in the evening?
Mary: I was watching TV in my room. When I heard the noise I went out my room.
At first I got scared and thought it was a fire. I went out my room and I noticed

Han robado a la señora Nuria las joyas que guardaba en la caja fuerte, junto a
un sobre con dinero, y hay varios sospechosos que están hospedados en el
motel.
Con todas estas pistas teníamos que averiguar quién había mentido, quién
había robado a Nuria y cómo lo habíamos descubierto. En este caso
la solución estaba en un pequeño detalle. Guillermo dijo que al entrar en la

estirando de un cordel, el interruptor no funcionaba. Clara dijo que estaba
leyendo cuando escuchó todo el ajetreo en el pasillo y se asomó a la puerta.
Testificó que salió rápido al pasillo, sin retroceder para estirar de nuevo del
cordel. Por lo tanto miente ella, no podía estar leyendo a oscuras.
