英文短篇故事（纽约）508 Free Money for Straphangers

The man on the M train said, "Good morning, everybody. I'm going to keep this short and sweet. My name's Robin. I'm not here to ask for money. I'm not here looking for work. I'm not here to preach the Gospel. But I do have some good news. I've got a gift for all of you. The gift is a twenty-dollar bill. Now, I know $20 isn't a lot of money, but it'll still get you a decent lunch in this town. I'm going to walk up the aisle. If you'd like a twenty, just hold out your hand. Thank you!" He put twenties in many hands. Then he walked into the next subway car. He handed out twenties on about 30 subway cars that morning. Later that day, the police arrested him. He had robbed a bank the day before. The police asked the public to return the money.
