Strangers make conversation without making passes. A band of comrades conferring on a street corner. Much larger assemblies on the boulevards, absorbed in discussions. Surprise attacks mounted in city after city, day after day. A new military barracks has been sacked and burned to the ground. The evicted residents of a building have stopped negotiating with the mayor\u2019s office; they settle in. A company manager is inspired to blow away a handful of his colleagues in the middle of a meeting. <strong>There\u2019s been a leak of files containing the personal addresses of all the cops, together with those of prison officials<\/strong><\/em>, <em>causing an unprecedented wave of sudden relocations.
