It was late afternoon before Mark was able to connect to Schmidt. He didn’t waste time on pleasantries. “Schmidt, I’ve a problem building here. We had an unexpected visitor. She was shot and injured by someone in a Chinese Embassy vehicle. I’ll send you the video files. Our visitor’s injury is relatively minor but she might need to have it checked at a hospital. As soon as we take her to a doctor—it’s an obvious gunshot wound—we’ll be at risk. Oh, and I may have wounded one of the vehicle’s occupants. They left in a hurry.”

“You’re on a roll. First a visit from a child welfare visitor and now a Chinese shooter.”

“I don’t think the two events are connected.”

“Yes, the probability is low, less than 20 percent. Send me all the images you have, including everything on the embassy vehicle. I’ll task my analysts to discover who they are. What about your visitor?”

“She’s private.”

“Hmm. I’ll explore the details with you, when we meet up.”

“We’re worried the police may visit again. I expect them here tomorrow. I don’t think anyone will report the shots—there are always hunters out, around here. However, if the guy I shot is seriously hurt, his companions will take him to the local hospital. There’ll be a report to the police of a gunshot wound and after they investigate, they’ll end up here.”

“Okay. I’ll get back to you later this evening with a detailed plan. Expect a support team to arrive in the morning. I’ll utilize Bravo Company from the 145th MP Battalion. They’ll see this as a challenge. You’ve met Major Dempsey. He’ll lead.”

After ending the call, Mark turned to Reb. She was sitting next to Anna who was holding her hand. His sister’s face was pale; it was clear she was suffering from the gunshot wound. He asked, “You can cope until tomorrow? If your wound gets infected or the pain is too much, we’ll have to break cover.”

“I—I think I can. It’s only a scrape.”

Anna said, “You were fortunate. Any lower and it would have made a mess.”

Reb nodded.

Mark said, “I have to send off some image files to Schmidt. We can talk some more once I’ve done that.”
