‘Yes, Mr. Magnus.’

‘Tell me what’s going on out there. Have you found him yet?’

‘We’ve got teams of two patrolling the border of the Derelict Quarter, watching the comings and goings for anything strange. Every now and again we take a random traveller between the two areas and remind them why the Derelict Quarter is so dangerous. Want to send out the right kind of message.

‘We’ve got people inside the Derelict Quarter too. They keep their eyes open. There have been several sightings and they seem to centre round a particular area on the far side of the tower blocks. There’s a rumour he’s underground and has others with him. We’re not sure of numbers and we’re not sure of his exact hiding place. But we’re getting closer every day. It’s only a matter of time before we send in a decent-sized force and root him out. Him and his so-called followers. Then you can do what you like with them. With him.’

Magnus stared out of the window.

‘It’s not bloody quick enough, Bruno. I don’t want to wait another day. Another hour. Another minute.’

‘We’re doing everything we can, Mr. Magnus.’

‘I know that, Bruno. Just do more of it. Otherwise, it’s going to look very bad on your CV.’

Magnus lit a new cheroot from the one he was smoking and crushed the first one out. His eyes defocussed. He didn’t notice Bruno studying his hand as he smoked.

‘Will there be anything else, Mr. Magnus?’

‘No. But hurry up with that veal. I’m fucking starving.’
