[QUOTE="Arnold Schwarzwald, post: 89900, member: 544"] [ATTACH]20213[/ATTACH] Nobody answers when you come in. No footsteps upstairs. The lockers hang open and dust has settled around the tools. Looks like the last crew left without bothering to close up. The roof keeps most of the rain off. Already an improvement. The envelope has WHOEVER IS WORKING HERE NOW written across the front. Inside is a credit chip marked 150 and a folded note. “I knocked. Nobody answered. 150 now. Another 600 when the oven stays cold. Meals for the crew for a week. Binder Street bakery. Two streets over. Come round the back. I shut off the fuel yesterday. It's getting hotter. Blue light after midnight and veins in the bread. My brother says we can still sell it if we cut those bits out. Please get here before he does. Don't bring the authorities.” There’s flour caught in the fold of the paper. Outside, rain drums against the truck’s hood. The bay door is still open. Nobody has asked who you are or stopped you handling the mail. Apparently that's the hiring process. [/QUOTE]
