Given the enormous difficulty in proceeding, the train stopped abruptly (this time, however, leaving the passengers in the utmost indifference. Indeed, for seven kilometers speed had been reduced to a ridiculous crawl. Or rather, philosophical. It seems that three pre-Socratic philosophers, sitting in a non-smoking first class compartment, started discussing the Zeno paradox, and how Achilles absolutely couldn’t overtake the train).
In the meantime, Vestigo Inani had sneaked away among the feet of his inquisitors, and with the speed that his back allowed him had reached a deserted car. Right there, not even fifteen meters away, rose the scaffolding of the burnished monumental bridge upon which the statue of the Red Pontiff of Climax would dominate the world.
