One night, the manager of a big company needed to call one of his workers, because there was  a serious problem with their main computer system. And the worker was the only person who could solve it.

 He dialed the worker's home phone number and the phone was picked up with a little girl's whisper(低语)." Hello?" the manager asked." Is your daddy at home?"" Yes," whispered a small voice." May I talk with him?" the man asked. To his surprise, the small voice whispered," No."

 Then the manager asked," Is your mommy there?"" Yes," came the answer." May I talk with her?" Again, the small voice whispered," No."

 Knowing that it was impossible that a young child would be left home alone, the manager decided he would just leave a message to the person who should be there watching over the child." Is there anyone beside you?" the manager asked the child." Yes," whispered the child."A policeman."

 Having no idea what a policeman would be doing at his worker's house, the manager asked," May I speak with the policeman?"

" No, he's busy!" whispered the child." Busy doing what?" asked the manager." Talking to daddy and mommy," came the whispered answer.

 Growing more and more worried as he heard something like a helicopter(直升机) through the phone, the manager asked," What is the noise?""A helicopter," answered the whispered voice." What is going on there?" asked the manager, alarmed.

 In a serious whispering voice, the child answered," The search team has just landed the helicopter." Surprised and worried, the manager asked," Why are they there?" Still whispering, the young voice replied," They are looking for me."
