Bab 124: Law-abiding citizen.

Eventually, William was taken to the police station to give his statement.

William was straightforward: "Walker and I both work at Cozy Book Haven. After dinner tonight, he said he wanted to show me the underworld of New York's gangs. He even suggested I become one of his underlings. Then he brought me to Moonlit Harbor Pub..."

The officer taking the statement chuckled, "People are still demanding protection money these days? Impressive! Does your colleague watch a lot of gangster movies?"

"I'm not sure," William replied, "I've only known him for two or three days, so we're not that close."

"Do you have contact information for your boss?"

"Yes, our boss is Alice. Here's her number." William, being the model citizen he was, answered all the police's questions truthfully and even left Alice's phone number.
