Trouble

“You know, there is rumor around saying that our complaint to the Fire Services Department has been triggered by Sir Christopher – with an aim to get rid of Peter from the apartment.” John says.

“But that’s not true!” Matthew finds that he has to speak louder than he should, “If anything, the only wrongdoings of our landlord is to neglect our original complaint.”

“All the same. People like to believe juicy stories, and our main tenant is no doubt a brilliant practical psychologist. He has successfully planted the image of a victim to most people.” Simon adds.

“Matthew, I’m afraid our adversaries are not limited to ordinary people around.” John says, “Many landlords and main tenants of other apartments find our complaint disturbing.”

“How could that be?”

“Because we have opened the Pandora box – or a can of worm, whatever. Officials from the FSD are becoming more alert. All tasks about electric circuit, however simple that is, need a certified engineer from now on.”

Matthew puts up a bitter smile. All of a sudden he realises the music in the pub is Beatles’ Yesterday.
