My attention was fully focused on the TV. Seeing that I didn't say a word, the stranger spoke again, "Don't ignore me. Maybe I can make you rich. I've changed my mind. I don't want to run anymore. I'm fed up with this terrifying life on the run. The police in our city have offered a $10,000 reward for my capture. After you've fed me, you can call the police and get that $10,000.
