Chapter 21

“Time for you guys to move on,” a police officer said as he and his partner approached them. “Find somewhere else to hang out.”

The tone of his words made it clear they weren’t welcome on the plaza, or probably anywhere else in the area, Guy thought. He was glad he hadn’t untied the rope from Shadow’s collar, otherwise they might have written him a ticket for an unleashed dog. Or worse, taken him away.

“Yes, sir, officer,” Mack replied submissively, although his expression was tight with anger. He stood, picking up his backpack, and the others did the same before they walked to the street.

“We can’t go back there, now, can we?” Guy said morosely as they headed toward the river

Tone shook his head. “Sure we can. That happens all the time. We’ll just have to wait a day or two before we do. They know it’s a losing proposition, but they have to do their job.”

Dani grinned. “We’re like roaches. You can’t get rid of us.”
