勇敢的女仆

接待大廳入口處的明朝木制花瓶使每個人都驚奇不已。藝術(shù)家以一種罕有的風(fēng)格設(shè)計它，并挑選了貴重的珠寶裝飾它。人們高度贊賞它那蜂蜜般的奇特顏色，還有上面繪制的繪畫。

這個花瓶曾經(jīng)屬于一座從前的城堡，但在戰(zhàn)爭期間，敵人的軍隊炸毀了城堡，于是，關(guān)于這個花瓶是如何幸存下來的爭論就一直在持續(xù)著。為了解開人們的疑問，一個不少于20人的調(diào)查隊開展了一次非正式的調(diào)查。他們找到的證據(jù)表明，有個女仆把花瓶拆開，然后讓一名水手把它沉到當(dāng)?shù)氐囊粋€水井里。她從來沒有泄露這個秘密，即使是在搜尋財寶的敵人殘酷的審訊下。

這位女仆真值得被給予一大筆錢作為對她的回報。
