Mr Raymond Johnson has lived in East Town for many years and works there as a manager. He is forty­two years old, unmarried, and he lives in a big wooden house on Moonlight Road. The people of East Town know Mr Johnson as an unusual man. He does not often leave his house, but his business has made him very rich. Last night, at about midnight, a man who was out walking saw that one of Mr Johnson's rooms was on fire. He immediately called the fire station, and the firemen arrived soon after. It took them half an hour to put out the fire. The firemen were surprised that Mr Johnson did not come out of the house, and two of them went inside to look for him. But Mr Johnson was not in the house. In the bedroom the two firemen found an open safe(保险箱) which was empty. There were papers on the floor. The windows of Mr Johnson's bedroom on the ground floor of the house were open. The firemen also found a set of keys in the room. The police then found out that the keys belonged to Mr Paul White who visited Mr Johnson at his home yesterday evening. The police are sure that they know the motive(动机) for the crime and they are looking for Mr White. But the police are puzzled because nobody knows where Mr Johnson is.
