Investigating the Mystery of the Talking Plant
                                                                                                       172
        asked  him  if  he  could  point  out  on  the  diagram  the  aliens’  room
        assignments.








































          “Well ,” Lugo replied, “there are four  beside Bulakko.  We  were  just
        in his room there on the right-hand side. Next to him is General S  eth
        of  Garbon;  along  the  other  wall  are  Reverend  Emenoy  of  Yo,
        Kortokox of Jaleeka, and Doctor Too-Rasoo of Drast.”
          “I’d like to talk with each of them today, Lugo. Could you arrange it
        without arousing their suspicions?”
          “No problem,” replied Lugo. “One of my duties here is to visit our
        guests  briefly  each  day  to  see  how  they  are  getting  along.  Some  of
        them stay in their quarters for long stretches of time, and we like to
        keep tabs on their condition. In fact, it was Bulakko’s failure to make
        his usual 0500 trip to the reception desk for a chat that made Miss
        Woswoot suspect something was wrong  with him— or so she said.”
