Chapter 79: Bets

As everyone was approaching the gate and the metal wall looming ahead, it started to feel even more imposing. When they were just arriving within sight of the entrance, John decided to take his leave.

"I'd had some encounters with the gangsters before. If I get recognized by them it would cause problems." John said as he turned down an alleyway. "I will be near the gate in case something happens inside. You can count on me to deal with the guys out here."

"That's good to know." Lisa replied. "We will be sure to keep Hanna from harm. With every bit of luck, no one will even bother to notice her."

Lisa motioned for Hanna to come over to her. As Hanna came closer Lisa took off her black Yankees hat and pulled out a square black cloth from a small pouch on her belt. "Here, take my Yankees hat and put on this face mask. This way no one will recognize you at all."
