They did interrogate me with a flurry of questions on our way to lunch about the rumours flying about over the Hatchett incident, most of which I fudg...ed over as theirs weren’t the only ears about.Afterwards I had several smaller study groups which went swiftly until dinner and an evening’s assignation with Jennifer.“You have been a naughty boy,” she admonished me when I was in the pub with her.“Not yet I haven’t,” I chuckled, making her blush.“This business with Hatchett is all over the school.. The men quickly searched the toughs' pockets and came up with their money and quite a bit more."Get something to eat with that and then go to a shelter for the night. It's not a good night to be outside," I told them."What about those two?" they asked in fear."You won't see them again for a long time, if ever," I told them before asking my own question. "I'm looking for a gang that robs women. They beat up a lady friend of mine and stole her stuff," I told them."Yes, we have heard of a gang. Sheesh! Um look,Marci? Don't tell Beth, okay? We'll just let this be ourlittle secret, okay?"Then he turned to me and said, "Okay, newbie Jerry, what'syer sizes?" My sizes? What do you mean?" I mean yer SIZES newbie! Geeze! Didn't they tell yanothin? Criminey sakes!"He moved from behind a counter that had appeared somewherein there when I wasn't looking and produced a tape measurefrom his pocket."Now hold still, newbie Jerry. This ain't gonna hurt, nomatter how it looks."He began measuring me. It was fully loaded. "Jessica? What's your middle name?" "Linda. Why?" I pressed the barrel to the temple which had formerly been my own and pulled the trigger. Jessica, in my body, collapsed to the floor. I looked around and saw that everyone had been so involved in the mix-up that no one noticed the discharge of the gun. It was unusual to see my own dead body lying in the small compartment. I slowly pulled the cover back over the top and managed to return to my wheelchair. I hurried.
