"Rune Niebourg from the local police was here while you slept. He will pop round again at about
midday. No doubt he will want to find out whether you saw anything."
He then turned round and left the room with Nete.
Once Johan was alone, it was clear to him that he should get out before the police turned up. He
had to get back to the house to find his suitcase before the police got their hands on it. Cautiously
he stretched his leg. That movement caused a wave of pain to shoot through his body. He fell back
on the bed wondering how on earth he would get away.
Shortly after there was a voice:
"The telephone is ready for you."
A young man of African descent wheeled a little table with a telephone on it to the side of his bed.
"My name is Jack. Give me a shout if you have problems getting through."
The man left the room.

As soon as he was alone, he dialled the number. "Pick up the phone now! Pick up the phone now!"
He was a bag of nerves and his hands were trembling. Finally, someone did pick up the phone:
"Dieter Stormann."
This deep familiar voice immediately made Johan’s tense muscles loosen up a bit. This was a voice
which in a subtle way always instilled in him calm and hope.
"It’s me. Things have gone wrong."
"Gone wrong? What do you mean?"
"The guest house where I was staying burned down last night. I have been admitted to Hamburg
hospital."
"What the hell are you saying? Has something happened to you?" His voice sounded serious.
"It’s a complicated story. Get a car to pick me up at the main entrance. I must get away
immediately! The police are going to interrogate me! A policeman is likely to turn up at any
moment!"
For a few seconds the phone went quiet. "A grey BMW 6, driver has a swarthy complexion. He will
stop near the entrance. You can’t miss him."
"When? There is no time to lose!" Johan gasped.
"Twenty minutes! The driver’s name is Masoud. Count on him! He is one of my best people! I will
also fix it so that your Danish ID number is removed from the system. The police are not the most
important; the most important thing is that you are okay." Dieter sounded serious and worried.
"Given the circumstances, I am fine. I will ring when I have news."
