Quick thinking!!!

One night a hotel caught fire,and the people who were staying in it ran out in their night clothes.

Two men stood outside and looked at the fire.

"Before I came out," said one, "I ran into some of the rooms and found a lot of money.
People don't think of money when they're afraid. When anyone leaves paper money in a fire,and fire burns it. So I took all the notes that I could find. No one will be poorer because I took them,"
 "You don't know me,! said other,"and you don't know my work?"
   "What Is your work?"
    "I'm a policeman."
      "Oh!" cried the first man. He toughtt quickly and said, "and do you know my work?"
       "No," said the policeman.
       "I'm a writer. I'm always telling stories about things that never happened."
