Careless

Garbage stared at Tony from the steps. Disgusting. How could people be so careless?

Speaking of carelessness, he should get down there. There were too many eyes around.

“Is this the guy, Larry?”

 “Yeah, that’s him.”

“What guy? I didn’t do nothin’,” said the guy.

“I know you didn’t do nothin’. That’s why you’re here ‘cause you did do somethin’.”

“It wasn’t me.”

“We know it was you. We have the transaction record of the money deposited into your account. Who hired you? … What should I cut off first?”

“Larry. It was Larry.”

Tony turned to see Larry’s gun.
