Chapter 4
The safe-cracker
One late night Sneek saw an ad in the newspaper which said: "We perform
explosion works". His call finger (which is the same as other people´s
forefinger) began to itch. This is what happened:
| | | Uncle: | -123456.
| |
| Sneek: | -Good evening. I am calling concerning the ad about the
explosion works today's newspaper.
| |
| Uncle: | -Yes.
| |
| Sneek: | -Well, I don't know, but I hope that this stays between us.
I'm sitting in my office and I left the key to the safe
behind. I mean, I lost it. I have to open the safe tonight.
I really do. Can you blow a safe?
| |
| Uncle: | -Well, I don't know. It doesn´t sound nice.
| |
| Sneek: | -Everything is under contol, you know. This is my very own
safe, but I still don't want people to know that I am blowing
my own safe, if you see what I mean.
| |
| Uncle: | -Well.
| |
| Sneek: | -But you know how to blow a safe, don't you?
| |
| Uncle: | -Yes, of course I do. But I still don't know. This doesn't sound
very good.
| |
| Sneek: | -It's important and I'll pay you very well.
| |
| Uncle: | -Really?
| |
| Sneek: | -Yes, we can settle a certain per cent or something like that.
| |
| Uncle: | -A per cent???
| |
| Sneek: | -Yes, or we can share or something like that.
| |
| Uncle: | -Hmmm. I don't know.
| |
| Sneek: | -I'm already inside and all.
| |
| Uncle: | -Sorry?
| |
| Sneek: | -You see, I'm inside, but I can't open the safe.
| |
| Uncle: | -Then you are in trouble.
| |
| Sneek: | -Yes.
| |
| Uncle: | -Where are you?
| |
| Sneek: | -I can't tell you just like that. I know that there is at least
eight hundred thousand in this safe. Cash!
| |
| Uncle: | -Really?!
| |
| Sneek: | -So, shall we share?
| |
| Uncle: | -Are you serious?
| |
| Sneek: | -The hell, of course I'm serious. Why else would I call you
at this hour?!
| |
| Uncle: | -We could meet and talk about it.
| |
| Sneek: | -Where do you live? I'll pick you up.
| |
| Uncle: | -We could meet in front of the XX subway station.
| |
| Sneek: | -In fifteen minutes?
| |
| Uncle: | -Make it half an hour.
| |
| Sneek: | -Okey!
| |
| Uncle: | -See you!
This was a very empty subway station that Sneek could view
from his window. The station was very empty except for one
man looking nervously around for a well paid night job.
