Chapter 29: Last Cruise
The man who jumped from Chris’ car had dark hair. Ruby could not see anything further, because it all happened too fast, while the other people were focusing on the police. Nobody expected that a stolen car could be returned close to the place where it had been stolen from. It was only by coincidence that Ruby had seen it though, because it had pulled up a little further down the road. She had been trying to regain her focus by looking away from all the drama with Chris’ father and the Police.
“Chris, there’s your car! Look, the man has run into the arcade!” Ruby shouted, pointing in the direction of the vehicle. The police car’s lights were still flashing and a few people had gathered from the surrounding shops out of curiosity.
The two policemen ran down the street, crossed over and ran into the arcade.
“My car! Thank God!” Chris yelled, as he ran across the street. Ruby ran after him.
