Comments on 'A Ruse Revealed'The door being unlocked, the two men had no trouble entering the dimly lit flat. As they crossed the threshold of the living room a lamp clicked to reveal Renard sitting on the couch, drink in hand, smirk on face.
"You?" John asked in genuine surprise.
"You weer expecting a 6 foot tall rabbeet?" Renard jested, possibly a little too proud of his ruse.
John leaned back and considered this unlikely hero carefully, "So the harried call to the bodega down the street for forged travel papers?"
"I'm a veesiting stoodent. Of coorse I haf a visa. You know a lot four a, what ees it you do, maid?"
"You and your sources," Pablo muttered.
John silenced him with a wave of his hand, "Very clever, sir, but that leaves you at our tender mercies."
"Why shoold I fear the authoreeties? I haf done noothing wrong," Renard said calmly, though his tremulous hand shook the ice in his drink.
Pablo sneered and pulled out an impressive knife, "We're not the authorities.
