CHAPTER SEVEN

There were police reports, newspaper reports, and in-depth analyses of the strange disappearance of the more than a dozen urban poor. Newspapers were still unsure of how many had really disappeared at the time of the invasion incident in Norfolk, because some might just have moved on to another town.

Chiun heard Ruby explain everything. She said her sources were better than newspapers or police.

"And what are you telling us all about it for?" asked Remo.

"Because I checked and the CIA don't know anything and I figured that organization of yours probably knows and you and the old gentleman can help me get Lucius back."

"First of all," Remo said, "I'm not working for that organization anymore. I quit. Second, why should I help you get Lucius back?"

"Because I saved your life and you owe me."

"And I got you out of jail," Remo said, "back on Baqia. So we're even."

"Not even," said Ruby. "Not even. I was gonna be getting out of that jail anyway and you just messed it up."

"Well, I won't mess this up. Find Lucius yourself," Remo said.

"I saved your life," Ruby said. "I saved your life."

Chiun, seeing the possibility of Ruby and Remo presenting him with a male offspring slowly vanishing, nodded his head. "Remo, this is a debt unpaid. She gave us our lives, we must give her the life of this Lucius, whoever he is."

"My brother," said Ruby.

"See, Remo?" said Chiun. "Such devotion to family. Such a woman is a fine woman. She would make a wonderful mother for a male child."

"Knock it off, Chiun," said Remo. "I'm not going into stud service for Sinanju. All right, Ruby, we'll help you get your brother back. But we're not going to do it with the organization. I've quit and that's that."

"All right," said Ruby.
