Hotel Drama (2)

"We'll discuss it when my lawyer gets here." Jack would not talk about this without Henry being present.

The older officer went and talked to Derik for a few minutes. There was some hand waving, and the cop looked annoyed. Eventually the cop just held up his hand to stop whatever Derik was saying and walked back over to Jack.

"Alright, we'll wait."

Jack leaned back against the counter and folder his arms, and spend the next few minutes, watching the people that had gathered to spectate. Some looked at Jack with scorn, others with pity, and a few seemed amused.

As he watched the crowd interact, he realized that one man in a sharp charcoal grey suit was going around to each person talking to them, writing something on a piece of paper, and receiving cash from each person.

Is he taking bets?

"Oi!" Jack hollered.

The two cops twitched, the older one returning his hand to the handle of his weapon.
