shoplifter商店竊賊，red-handed當(dāng)場(chǎng)抓獲的，crook竊賊

【笑話原文】

Caught Stealing

A shoplifter was caught red-handed trying to steal a watch from a jewelry store.

"Listen," said the shoplifter, "I know you don't want any trouble either. What do you say I just buy the watch, and we forget about this?"

The manager agreed and wrote up the sales slip. The crook looked at the slip and said, "This is a little more than I intended to spend."

【中文譯文】
