Marshal Belaunzarán, President of Republic that used to be the handsome Boy Hero but now aged by the gone years, statesman’s concerns, women and gallons of cognac Martell consumed in twenty years of power, was answering the phone:
“Well, investigate, Jiménez, and punish the culprits.”
Cussirat, tall, striking, disheveled, distinguished, in leather jacket and pants and riding boots, starts walking, with Don Carlitos on his arm; the crowd steps aside before him and looks at him with respect, like the priest of a new cult.
