I saw him receive the brown paper package. It disappeared into his coat like everything did. He stepped out into the night, but a minute later I heard a loud bang. Running outside I saw the body at the other end of the alley. As I started toward it two shapes slid out of the shadows and pulled a bag from that big leather coat - God knows what the goods were. When I got to Safe his chest was exploded and brown paper fluttered away on the breeze. He wasn't safe from the inside.
