Mr. Bennet already believed what Oswald said was true when they told him about the burglary at Pierre's office.

However, he erred on the side of caution and asked them to tell him more about the details.

Oswald looked at him. He hesitated whether or not he should tell Mr. Bennet more about it.

If he told Mr. Bennet the burglary he committed in detail, he would be in deep trouble in case Mr. Bennet called the police.

Mr. Bennet noticed that Oswald had been quiet. He knew what Oswald was worried about. He said, “Don't worry. I just want to make sure that you're telling the truth. If what you said is true, then we know you're working for Mr. Pierre. We won't call the police if you're Mr. Pierre's men. You only have to tell me the details of the burglary."

"Well, we broke into Mr. Pierre's office that night, and we stole everything he kept in the safebox— documents, cash, and stuff he kept in the drawers. We were afraid that the police would suspect something was wrong, so we stole something from the financial department too. Most of them were cash. I didn't steal the phones the employees left in the office. We left after that. Oh, the one who led the way for us was Mr. Pierre's secretary. She can prove it. She met Mr. Pierre at my house back then," explained Oswald. He clenched his teeth angrily at the thought of the pretty secretary whom Leroy took along with him.

"Come in." Mr. Bennet immediately invited him into the house.

There was no difference between the police's investigation results and what Oswald told him.

There were only two rooms that had been broken into at Pierre's office. One of them was the president's office, and another one was the financial department.

Pierre was not at the office. That was why no one knew what he kept there. The police reported that the sealed safebox was violently pried open and the burglar stole everything kept in it.

Also, the employees working at the financial department stated that the company's cash had been stolen too.

The details Oswald gave him were the same as the police's report.

Oswald and Flynn exchanged glances with each other and followed Mr. Bennet into the house.

Mr. Bennet told them to wait in the living room. Then, he went up the stairs in a hurry.
