Answer 1

Well sir, it must have been  a professional gang because it was a very clever job. They had to know exactly what they were doing because they didn't leave even one clue behind them. It definitely couldn't be Freddy Fingers and his gang because they are in prison. I thought it could be Harry but he was in hospital at the time of the robbery, so it couln't be him either. I can't be  sure, but it must be Sly Steve's gang, because they are the only suspects who don't have an alibi; they could commit the robbery. Should I bring them in for questioning, sir?"
