"Come in."
"I saw your car outside and thought you had arrived, and you did. I just wanted
to see how you are. I’m ready anytime, and I talked to Bjørn about staying on the
team."
Ahmed stands and looks almost ready for battle while he is talking.
"Yeah, you probably had a vision of ‘em all being arrested, " says Tom laughing.
"Yeah, Ahmed, it couldn’t have been great your blood pressure to obey orders
from them like a little dog," Olina continues in a fresh tone, lighting a cigarette
and opening the window a little wider.
"Yes, absolutely, I must say it really grinded my gears." Ahmed, knowing they
have seen his weakness, decides to laugh with them. “Yes, especially when I can't

in me. "
He shrugs his shoulders and puts on the blue blazer, he has holding over his

"What?" says Tom, stunned
“Shit! Murdered? "

continues.
"How could they poison a secret agent? There must be a big security breach,”
Olina says, answering the question herself. "You have to have a mole inside."
"Look here, I have something that might move us a few steps closer to a
clarification," says Tom, putting the jewellery box on the table, taking out the fine
gold key that he has hanging around his neck.
"Just lend me your glasses for a quick moment," he says to Olina, "if you have
them."
