犯罪与司法
某个清晨，小镇先因为一块消失的派和面包店里吵闹的盗窃而闹成一团，Crime 也就这样开始了。
人们都在偷偷议论 Murder，可线索最后却指向一个笨手笨脚的 Fraud 家伙，他其实只是偷了果酱，还顺便偷走了自己的体面。
警察随后进行了 Arrest，案子也很快进入 Trial，站在最前面的是一位神情严肃的 Judge。
一位细心的 Lawyer 叫来 Witness，陪审团听完这段荒唐故事都笑了，Verdict 也变得格外明确。
那个小偷最后拿到 Sentence、Fine 和 Probation，没有进 Prison，却还是想 Appeal，结果发现 Punishment 最难受的部分，是丢脸。
A small Crime shook the town one morning, starting with a missing pie and a noisy Theft at the bakery.
People whispered about Murder, but the clue led to a clumsy Fraudster who had only stolen jam and dignity.
The police made an Arrest, and the case moved to Trial before a serious Judge.
A careful Lawyer called a Witness, the Jury laughed at the absurd story, and the Verdict was clear.
The thief faced Sentence, a Fine, and Probation instead of Prison, though he still tried to Appeal and discovered that Punishment can be very embarrassing.
