Solution
The narrator was not a thief. He was in the habit of stealing something whenever he left the docks. He used to hide them under his apron. One day, there was a banana boat on the docks. He picked up the bananas which fell off the boat and quickly hid them under his apron.
But the bananas were not his craze. He loved to eat oranges very much. When he came out from the docks with the oranges hidden in his pockets. Pongo, the policeman caught him. The pockets were bulging as the apron string was broken. There were seventeen oranges. A lot of people were stealing from the docks.
The narrator kept quiet and was frightened. Pongo found him very innocent. He sympathised with the narrator. He did not want any action to be taken against him. He was a kind man. He advised the narrator very politely not to steal anymore. Pongo pardoned the narrator. The narrator thanked the policeman and went home happily.
