Pick up your axe, fashion an axe-carrying mechanism to hide it under your clothes, then kill teh pawn broker.
Sadly, we don't have an axe. Hence:
0. Style self after general who famously failed to conquer my own country.
1. Make plan.
2. Make noose to hold and hide axe, as well as a fake silver thingy to "pawn".
3. Steal axe from neighbor's house to fix plan you've had broken by the unavailability of Axe #1.
4. Head to pawnbroker's flat.
5. Sneak to pawnbroker's room. Don't get noticed because there are painters on the next floor down who went outside to fight some.
6. Get pawnbroker to turn back while fiddling with "pawn".
7. Kill pawnbroker with axe.
8. Steal a pitiful amount of money, then run away.
9. OCD-ley dispose of anything tangentially related to the crime, including the loot.
10. Spend hundreds of pages debating over turning self in and worrying about morality and stuff, while an incompetent investigation finds only a single eyewitness to support my guilt (despite acting all guilty, even to the point of telling a cop about some things the guilty person would do then doing them, albeit with money gotten in other ways).
11. Meanwhile, start hanging out with a hooker whose family I gave some much-needed money to a while ago. Have her come over at the perfect time to make my meeting with my family and my potential future brother-in-law more awkward.
12. Other stuff.
13. Confess for almost no reason.
14. Cause cranial injuries to high school students of future ages as they wonder how anyone could be so stupid, let along everyone.
15.
16. Profit!
...Or, just kill and rob the pawnbroker.
