knows who he is. The only information we got was that there is a widespread
perception that there are some highly competent secret agents in Scandinavia,
but anything more precise that wasn’t be revealed.”
Claire nods at them both and turns a hair tot away from her face.
“At least Masset was pleased that we had made such a big effort, putting the bar
very high this time. He praised us for it, as well as for avoiding hurting Tom. If he
weren’t unscathed, we would have had American, British and Scandinavian
agents running around the premises forever. A lot of their people have the dull
habit of killing, then questioning whether they have received the information
they actually came for."
As Adrian has finished his speech, the silence spreads over the small ensemble
for a few minutes, and then Claire suddenly takes to the floor and gaits around as
to indicate that the meeting is now over.
“I have no more for today. Rainar is gone and that’s good. Next time, we just
need to be more poised about the methods we use when we have to do
monitoring. It is obvious that such a thing must never happen again. "
"Clearly," says Adrian. "I would go so far as to say that I am to blame for it,
because it was me who believed blindly in the computer system. Monitoring the
door he walked in and out of clearly wasn’t enough."
Brian helps his friend, but slightly annoyed: "We both underestimated the man,
shouldn't we say so, Adrian?"
“The task now is to find out where PET-Germany is in all this matter. We don't
have Rainar anymore, so I'm not really sure where we get the information. It
must be something you can do so that we can be fully updated. "
Brian nods conscientiously and rushes to come up with an answer.
“Well, we could use Margaret Wiederstein. She is my old confidant. She has
worked closely with Rainar before, so she has the same knowledge that he did.
She is just a slightly different type of individual; it will be difficult to get her keen
on supporting us, as Rainar did. She isn’t in need of the money as badly as Rainar,
but her finances are to be a bit compromised as she’s seeking a divorce, but still
want to maintain a certain standard of living."
