*He told me that easily? I was expecting an awkward secret but... not this one*

M: Wh-excuse me, I don't understand

N: He is a criminal.

M: Criminal?

N: Yes. He got in the government files, had stolen uncountable number of things and even killed people

*Thank god no one was near our table. This sounds as bad as it is. I need to stay in my role though...*

M: No, anything but a criminal. He is a... good man

*That scratched my mouth. Him and a good man. If only.*

N: I am not lying Tini. I have proves.

M: What?

N: Come with me and I will show you all the things

M: No, Nico, are you listening to yourself? Are you joking or-

N: Please! I know it sounds ridiculous. But if you follow me, everything will come out clear

*I can't go with him. I know he has proves.*

M: Nico, I don't know why you are trying to do this but I am not going. This is absurd

N: I know every time he broke the law and every weak place he has

*Weak place? That would... that would change the whole mission I am on now. The key to success.*

M: Where do you want to take me?

...

*We arrived at a block of flats, entered and went seven floors up. I am a trained person who can run miles but these stairs broke me. Nicolas turned at me amd smiled*

N: You need some help?

*Do I look like I need help? No I don't... just because my ability to walk upstairs isn't perfect I look like an idiot*

M: Huh? No... that's- that's okay...

*I answered him and he unlocked the door. We went in and I got in a small, quite smelly place, with things all over the floor.*

N: I'm sorry for this but... I have a lot of work to do and-

M: That's fine. It's not that bad

*I lied and followed him to the apparently living room*

N: Take a seat

*I sat on the sofa and he pulled out a folder*

N: So, what do you want to hear first... uh... here. He stole several expensive paintings from galleries.

M: No, I don't-

N: I have a photo too

*Seriously, what is this guy? He has photos and writes down everything Jorge does. A bigger problem is, how do I keep not believing him that Jorge is a bad guy. No one is that stupid to not believe what he has done all this*
