Taking a quick look behind him, he pushed the door wide open. To his surprise, he caught the security guard stashing money from the safe into his pockets. Determined to sound the alarm, he opened his mouth wide, but just then he realized he wasn’t supposed to be there himself. The security guard, a fox, grinned at him, already conceiving a scheme.
