Back to jail, please!

“Where would you like to go?”asked Chance.”Well, I need to go back to the place where we first met”,replied John.”You mean the prison?” “Yes”.”Tired of your newly acquired freedom?” “No, but I’d like to see an old friend again.”John wasn’t really going to pay his friend a visit,of course not,not in the meaning of paying a visit.He was going to free him.

Bill would be delighted to see John again.They got separated 5 years ago, when John was caught.1 year later, Bill was caught too, not for petty crimes,but for fraud.John didn’t know how much money Bill had made disappear,but he was quite sure that it had to be a number with a zero or 7. Therefore,Bill had been sentenced to be imprisoned for 8 years.Though they were in the same jail, it had been a long time they saw each other:Their cells were at the opposite side of the jail.

Bill and John never worked together, but John was quite sure Bill would like the plan.Moreover, Bill would be of great use to John: Bill’s knowledge and intelligence was unmatched.
