Requiem For A Stripper #341

by

I had a thought before I left, and went into the garage and got the guy I'd hogtied and dumped in the back of the car and pulled him out. I untied him as he laid there shaking. He didn't even look at me. As soon as he was free he jumped up, running and screaming. He may have been an Immoral Society member but I couldn't just let the poor bastard get burned up.

I got back to my car and headed out of Nichols Canyon. It was just a matter of time before someone called the fire department...

    And I almost forgot about the poor sap he put in that trunk!

    Jake’s a thoughtful and decent kinda guy as we all know... except when he gets his dander up! (which is not a rude expression but means angry!)

    Worried about Romero still breathing though! Couldn’t you put a few wooden chairs around him as you left? That would get him really burned up about things!

    Thanks, Neville. Regarding Romero, what with the whole house going up in flames, coupled with the loss of blood from the bullet wound to the chest, he would be meeting his demise from one or the other soon enough.
