Tengu
“Esmeralda carefully explained to Gerard Crowley about Admiral Thorson.
“He was in Japan during the war, and became very friendly with some of the doctors who later worked on the Tengu program for the Tokyo Olympics. He found out about the research simply by accident. He may suspect nothing, but we cannot risk him blowing the whistle on us.
“What I really want to know is this,” Gerard said. “When do we stop killing people, and when do we start getting on with building up this team of bodyguards?...”
‘‘We have to take everything by orderly steps,” said Mr. Esmeralda. He forked up some of his barbecued beef and chewed it assiduously.
“Nancy Shirariuka is getting distinctly restless,” Gerard remarked. “She doesn’t like this killing any more than I do. If you were intending to create a hit squad of homicidal maniacs, you should have told us. At least we would have known what we were letting ourselves in for. I’m no angel, Esmeralda, and neither is Nancy Shiranuka; and we all know about the good Commander Ouvarov.MoreLess
