Moriarty The Patriot - 𝓜𝓾𝓷𝓭𝓾𝓼 𝓝𝓸𝓿𝓾𝓼

chapter 2

We had already attracted enough attention, I didn't need any more trouble.

But a very important fact escaped us: there was someone among the group of people who were watching us, that would lead to drastic changes at the beginning of our new adventure..

------------------------------------------------------------

"talking in English"

"talking in Italian"

"thinking"

---------------------------------------------------------

"What the fuck are you thinking?! I told you to lay low, and what do you do? The opposite!   uugh I can't with you... "

"..."

"sorry I'm just frustrated, you could have hurt yourself!!

Anyway,in the meantime, I've been trying to understand our position, and I think we're in England. Another strange thing is that this setting seems too real to be fake, it looks just like one of an anime I had seen"

"you and these anime u watch "

"That's all you understood? and anyway, I was saying that it could be useful, since I remember the episodes quite well"

Suddenly we heard a noise coming from the bottom of the alley where we had hidden. We jumped on the spot with fright, but when we turned our head we saw

They were two kids, probably poor, who looked suspicious at us because we were speaking another language.

An idea popped into my head. 

If we were really into Moriarty the patriot, we might as well dress up as 800 kids. 

A smirk appeared in my face and I began to speak with them, coming straight to the point.

"let's change our clothes. I'll give you something made of gold in exchange"

I took everything I had left in my wallet, since the last time I went to buy snacks at the school's vending machines. 3,50€ . I almost felt sorry to swindle them like this, since the euro had not been created at that time, but at least that gold inside was worth something to them.

Without adding anything else, we exchanged clothes and walked out of that alley, completely different clothes from before.

"we should find a place to stay, possibly one safe from possible danger" I said "Look, we could stay there for the night" he pointed to an alley near a tailor

From our point of view sleeping outside was completely unimaginable, accustomed to sleeping in a soft and clean bed, sheltered in a room that in turn was inside a house, which most people here, unfortunately, did not have or was in a very bad condition. We had to get used to it to survive as long as we could. we had already skipped all the basic meals during the day since our first arrival in thet new place.

.

The night came and our belly was bubbling for an hour. 

We didn't have any food since when we did the exchange of clothes with those kids, I left in the pockets the energy bars that I always carried with me for safety. Maybe it was out of pity, I don't know, but that choice turned out to be a stupid move in this new survival game.
