Oliver's life
change's(4)
The Dodger and Charley Bates had left the crowd which was
chasing Oliver as soon as they could . They went back to their
house through the narrow streets, using a complicated route in case
anyone was following them . Once they were safely away from other
people , Charley Bates rolled on the ground and laughed and
laughed.
'Ha! Ha! Ha! When I ssaw Oliver runnign away so fast, round
all the corners , bumping into walls,,,and all the time Ihad the
handkerchief in my pocket,,, Ha! Ha! Ha!'
'but what'll Fagin say?' asked the Dodger.
'What do you mean?'
The Dodger said nothing more but led Vharley Bates into the
house and up the stairs . When Fagin saw them enter, he rose to his
feet.
'Where's Oliver?' he asked them furiously.
The two boys looked uneasily at each other, but said nothing .
Fagin took hold of the Dodger's collar and shook him violently.
'Tell me or I'll kill you!'
The Dodger slid out of his coat in one smooth movement,leaving
Fagin holding only the empty coat, 'The police have got him,' he
said reluctantly . He looked round for a weapon to fight with, but
Fagin already had a heavy metal pot in his hand . He threw it hard
at the Dodger, but messed and hit Charley Bates , who started to
shout with fear.
