"What?" Professor Kevin Moore was so surprised that he almost choked on the coffee he was drinking with Lieutenant Sullivan and Paul Denning. "Paxton did what?"
It wasn't that Moore missed Sullivan's words. He just couldn't believe that Steve Paxton had voluntarily and on his own initiative identified the person who stabbed him with the knife.
"Are you so surprised?" the lieutenant was taken-aback.
"Yes. I expected more resistance from Paxton with the police. You know, something like 'I'm tough, I can handle it on my own'. "
Sullivan chuckled.
"You are not as good a psychologist as you thought you were."
"I don't think I am," admitted Kevin and adjusted his glasses. "But this time I can only be happy about it."
The lieutenant, however, frowned.
"But the striker ..." Sullivan shook his head. "My God, the boy is only fifteen and has already tried to kill a man! And for what? "
Yes, it was really disturbing. Very disturbing.
