Question

    My friend is a taxi driver. He has been a driver for ten years. It's a nice job most of the time. He can meet a lot of people. He always works at night because there is too much traffic during the day. He usually goes home around two or three o'clock in the morning. There are some very strange things, which often happened at night.

One day, my friend was taking a woman back home from a party at three o'clock in the morning. She had her little dog with her. When they got to her home, she found she had lost her keys.
