The car was coming fast and the sound was scary, so I told him to stay low.

Bones looked at me incredulously. “Stay low? You just pancaked me, Lump! I’m lower than a snake’s belly!”

Sure enough, the car was an SUV, and definitely the same one from this afternoon. It traveled past us to the middle of the intersection and stopped with a SCRREEECH!!

The Suits got out, there were five of them, and weren’t wearing sunglasses. I thought that they might be Chinese. They all turned on flashlights and began to search. I had no idea what they were looking for.

I whispered very quietly, “What do you think they’re looking for, Bones?”

He reached underneath him and grunted, “Maybe they’re looking for this?”

Challenge Question!
