them. I used to eat them all day and every day. One day Pongo, the policeman caught
me red-handed because my apron string broke. He noticed that my trouser pockets were
somewhat bulging. He caught me by the collar, took me into the cabin nearby and looked
into my pockets. There were seventeen oranges. Pongo counted them and placed them
carefully on the table. Pongo and the other policeman had seen some carts near the dock
gate. They went and talked to the drivers. In the meantime I ate all the seventeen oranges.
