The Crime Of Being Small の小説・ストーリー

Mia charged as calmly as if she was telling everyone what she had eaten today: “Our Sir Smith is so talented, yet he hides that we run two such large companies. Now it's also possible to commit economic crimes and sell drugs, two crimes that are not light." She was trying to expose all of his sins gently, she was worried that this old man would intentionally get sick and die, how would she continue to do it? The will to kill is always very well controlled by Mia to avoid her turning herself into someone else, a cruel and ruthless person.

The one major rule he held on to was not to trust anyone. Most of the inmates there were charged with petty theft, failure to pay fines on time, breaking the law on petty things and getting charges that were not serious at all. Most prisoners didn’t appear to be bad people from the short conversation he had with them. They were just from a bad neighbourhood and victims of an economic downfall that forced them to turn to commit crimes to survive. They were from the working class, the sort of people he never gets a chance to know...

And different routes. We'd never claimed to be saints. To some people, there was no such thing as a big or small sin. Wrong was wrong. But in my opinion… who in the name of ever-loving fuck thought that way? How could one argue there was no scale when it came to wrongdoing? That was like saying a rapist had done equal wrong as the man who cheated on his wife. Bullshit. No matter who said what, I believed sin could be measured. And it was because of this I knew the Morellos were far higher on the wrongdoing scale than we were.

Story of my life. “Indeed. But I don’t blame you for it, for your intentions or whatever it is that pushed you to commit such crime.” I cringed at the terms she used but it was the truth. Hacking itself is a crime- let alone stealing. “I know people like you, tesoro. I mean, there are two classifications of people I am aware of in this world. One who devotes for money and the other who devotes for love. You, Dylan Ross, belong to the latter.”

“We are friends that’s all that matters. Besides I know that you won’t judge me for something which was outside my control so who am I to judge you?” “You are talking as if you have done a lot of things in life, have you ever done something to make you a criminal in the eyes of the law?” Rima demanded as Penn laughs. “You two really don’t know me.” Stanley gave Penn a look. “Your turn, answer Rima’s question.” “Yes I have and that is all you are getting.” Penn answered with a smile as Stanley rolled his eyes. “We know, we wanted to see if you will lie to us.” Rima said. “And stealing might be an offense but it isn’t regarded as criminal these days.”

Why me! What was my crime??

He is kind and humorous, and when he speaks of being president one day, I believe him. “Governor Smith, how are you?” My husband greets him with the same excitement and extends his hand. This is how this world is, crime and capital go hand in hand. There is no definitive line between those who create laws and those who break them. There is only recognition and understanding of power. I used to have power once. “And Mrs. Cattaneo, how are you?” I extend my arm like a robot, and pretend to be delighted when he kisses my hand.

she countered, looking at me with that same confusing mix of cynicism and belief. "This isn't normal," I argued, the words tumbling out. "This is a mafia gang where all they do is kill and exercise power, whereby making the whole of New York scared. It's more like they rule New York, and maybe even the world and that doesn't sound sweet to me."

All that I’d worked for in my life, all that I’d suffered, all that I’d earned, all that I’d given to this world, and that’s what I’d been reduced to? “You’re risking the life of a friend, you’re risking Eli’s life, to … what? Prove you’re a better criminal than the rest of them?” Marco’s knuckles whitened on the steering wheel. “Do you have any idea what it’s like growing up a bastard child in the mob? Knowing—proving over and over again—that you were born for this life, and still having nothing?” “No,” I said flatly. “I can honestly say I do not.”
