He\u2019d never be able to afford a whole bottle of rum.<\/p>\n After drinking half a bottle he doesn\u2019t seem to be able to stop. But somebody approaches. Benet doesn\u2019t want to share his find, so he puts the stopper back in and hastily hides the bottle in his knapsack.<\/p>\n Calmly, the visitor approaches. Presumably it\u2019s time for their daily walk in the woods. That\u2019s quite normal. And Benet thinks \u201cjust be normal \u2026 act normally\u201d. He didn\u2019t steal anything, he just found the treasure abandoned inside a tree, that\u2019s all.<\/p>\n (Adding more character to the voice, mimicking Benet\u2019s style of delivery.)<\/em><\/p>\n However, Benet\u2019s head is far from normal at the moment. Any wisdom that he might usually possess seems to have deserted him. He stands up, a little unstable on his feet, and smiles inanely. The sort of stupid smile that a drunk puts on when they\u2019re trying vainly to demonstrate that they\u2019re not drunk.<\/p>\n And he says, \u201cgood unstubble consternoon!\u201d<\/p>\n He pauses and thinks, \u201cwhat did I just say?\u201d quickly followed by, \u201cI\u2019m sure it was OK!\u201d<\/p>\n Constable Walker looks at him with a suspicious, half sideways look. The sort of look that your mum gives you when she knows you haven\u2019t actually cleaned your teeth this morning.<\/p>\n Previous<\/a> – Book1 Page133 \u2013 Next<\/a><\/p>\n Previous – Book1 Page133 \u2013 Next For medicinal purposes obviously!
