'The landing has been much better this time so the book must be really good'. These words came to Paco's mind when the plane arrived in Freetown. He took a taxi and went to the hotel straight away.

At the reception, there was a young woman of about 25 years of age who talked to Paco in a very nice accent. Paco is starting to distinguish the different accents and he is finding it very interesting.

Receptionist - Can I help you?

Paco - Yes, please. I booked a single room last week. My name's Paco González.

Receptionist - Yes, here it is. Room 65. You must show me your passport.

Paco - Here you are.

Receptionist - Thanks. It's a bit early but the cleaners must have done your room already, so you can go in.

Paco - Great! I'm tired and I fancy a rest. Do I need to leave the key at the reception whenever I go out?

Receptionist - No, you needn't. But you mustn't smoke in your room and you must be respectful towards the other guests of course. Ah! And you have to leave the room by 12 o'clock everyday.

Paco - No problem. I get up early. By the way, how can I get to the city centre?

Receptionist - You have to go by bus. Take this bus schedule.

Paco - Thank you!

After leaving his luggage, Paco went down to the restaurant to have some lunch. While he was waiting for his meal, he took a newspaper that was on the bar and had a look at it.

Apparently a murder had been committed the night before and the culprit has already been arrested. A man went to a petrol station and asked the shop assistant for the money from the till. The man offered resistance and the thief shot him. Fortunately there was a camera and everything was filmed. The man was found driving at high speed on the highway with evident signs of nervousness. The police has declared that he will be interrogated in the morning.
