Lei Jian peered through the window of his office. His hands clasped behind his back as though he were handcuffed. While he’d spent the past several months in just such a predicament, today he was no longer a prisoner, but he was beginning to feel like one again. “I am useless here. Someone is working against us and we have to know who.”

He turned toward the speakerphone. “Do you know who was responsible for the intrusion into the deputy secretary’s home yet?”

“No. Not yet. I seem to be obstructed at every turn. I have been made aware, however, that one of the CIA agents has been killed.”

“And who gave you this information?”

“Our friend who has helped us before. Word reached him earlier today.”

“I have to go there.”

“Sir, I implore you, do not travel. Your passport has been revoked. You will not be allowed to travel in any event.”

“Ahh, you see that is where you are wrong.” He began to meander inside his office. “The minister and I have begun to see eye to eye once again. He has come around to the fact that there are things that must be taken care of in order for us to move forward.”

“It would be all too easy for the other CIA agent to track you down. There’s too much risk.”

“Your warning is duly noted, my friend. However, these road blocks that have kept us from completing our mission have become cumbersome and I believe it must come down to me to make them disappear.”

There was silence on the other end of the line.

“Ahsan? Are you still there?”

“Yes, sir. I will wait for your arrival then, sir.”

“Don’t worry, Ahsan. This will be over soon and you will be able to return home and I will again return to the position of which I was unfairly robbed.”
