The Unlikely Hero | 银行劫案

English Original

An elderly woman went shopping last Tuesday. Arriving at a bank, she noticed a car parked near the entrance. A man got out and entered the bank. Peering inside the vehicle, she saw the keys were still in the ignition. She took the keys and followed the man inside.

Inside, the man pulled a gun from his pocket and demanded money from the clerk. Unaware of the robbery, the old lady approached the man, handed him the keys, and scolded him, "Young man, you're foolish! Never leave your keys in the car—someone might steal it!"

The man stared at her for a moment, then glanced at the clerk. Without another word, he grabbed his keys, fled the bank, jumped into his car, and sped away—empty-handed.


中文翻译

上周二,一位老妇人外出购物。她来到一家银行,看到门口停着一辆车。一个男人从车里出来,走进了银行。她朝车里看了看,发现钥匙还插在点火开关上。老妇人拿走了钥匙,跟着那个男人进了银行。

银行里,那个男人从口袋里掏出一把枪,要求柜员交出所有的钱。老妇人没有看到这一幕,她走到男人面前,把钥匙塞到他手里,并责备道:“年轻人,你真傻!千万别把钥匙留在车里——会被人偷走的!”

男人盯着她看了几秒钟,然后看了看柜员。接着,他抓起钥匙,冲出银行,跳上车,飞快地开走了——一分钱也没拿到。
