Hello everybody!
I couldn't wait even to the start of the exams (not to mention their end) and I wrote the first chapter of a new story... Well, it's quite normal for me. :D
I hope you've read "The first investigation". If not, better do it first, because this story is its sequel so there may be elements (not many, but still...) difficult to understand without reading the first part. :)
Enjoy!
Best wishes,
VerMa.
One spring night, when the Coolsville citizens were long since asleep, a tall, thin man was creeping along dark backstreets. He was dressed in a black jumpsuit, a black balaclava and black boots, and over his shoulder, he carried a tied canvas sack which contained something small and oblong. Even a kid would instantly realize he was a shady guy.
Finally, the man came to a black car, standing under a lamppost on one of the main streets of the city. Then, he looked around to make sure no one followed him and quickly got into the vehicle, having put his bundle on the back seat.
"How was it?" a stubby, bald man, sitting behind the wheel asked.
"A piece of cake" the thin crook replied. "The boss will be happy. These two chumps left an open window in the living room. They must have thought no one would know they'd not have a new security system installed until the morning!"
"Fools!" the bald one cackled.
"Yeah! I wish I could see their faces when they realize the kid's gone! Hahaha!"
Soon, the car, taking away the deeply asleep child, unaware of the seriousness of the situation, vanished in the dark.
PS – Who do you think got kidnapped? :)
