Neverending - book 10 - The Christmas Story - Chapter 20

 




A cold shiver ran down Tim's spine as he entered the old house. The sound of jingling and low murmuring could be heard and the crackling of the embers in the stove in the corner of the room. Tim looked around the room and saw an old, grumpy man sitting at a large desk behind stacks of gold and silver talers. Tim cleared his throat and stepped closer. The old man didn't seem to notice him, so engrossed was he in counting the gold coins. Tim saw an open letter lying on the table, carefully he pulled it out from between the stacks and read it:

Dear Uncle Scrooge,

Like every year, we invite you to our home for Christmas. We would be very happy if you would celebrate Christmas Eve with us. Maybe you forgot our address and that's why you could never come to our house? Please visit us at Commonvalley 9. ...........'

The letter was torn off at this point. Where is the second part? Tim looked around...

 

Hint: Write down the number, you might need it.  Find the second part in the cabinet next to you?
