Two months ago, there was a loud bang at four in the morning in the neighboring village. Firefighters, police, and medics arrived but found nothing at the scene except for several open manhole covers and the smell of burning. No fire, no casualties, no consequences (besides the displaced covers). Yesterday I read that the local fire marshal has offered a $10,000 reward for information that helps find and arrest four suspects who had the audacity to look suspicious in that village shortly before the bang. No faces, only the colors of their shorts and t-shirts.
