That couldn't rebound on him, no matter what happened, since no one with
sense concerned themselves with who went where in Transportation
Division.

A nice obedient crew... then he'd bounce the Malvern once, maybe twice,
in various 'directions' before he jumped it toward its final destination
through Larix/Kura. That should keep his boots clean.

Corfi reached his office, told his bodyguards to take a break- he
wouldn't be needing them for an hour or so. Corfi neatly hung his body
armored overtunic on an antique wall rack, unlocked his safe, and
removed the cleaner. He swept the office, found nothing more than the
two standard bugs feeding prerecorded pap to Security, and keyed the vid
to his assistant's line. Corfi gave the man some meaningless orders,
while he checked the line with the cleaner. Still clean. He touched
sensors.

The screen cleared, and he was looking at a tiny garden. Curled on its
synthetic moss was a young woman, barely more than a girl. She was
naked, and her ash-blondness was natural.

'Hi, darl,' she said throatily.

Corfi grinned. 'Suppose I was the bloc monitor?'

'He doesn't have my code,' she said. 'I didn't expect to hear from you
until tomorrow. I thought you were seeing the wife-o tonight.'

'I was,' Corfi said. 'But seeing you like you are... I guess those
damned riots'll keep me at the office another night.'

'Pity,' the woman said. 'I'll be ready.'

'You can be more than ready,' Corfi said. 'Remember that bracelet you
were looking at?'

'Ooo.'

'Suddenly we can afford it.'

The girl squealed in delight.

'I thought that'd make you happy,' Corfi said.

'Oh, I am, I am, darl. Hurry home, so I can show you just how happy I
am.' She parted her thighs slightly, caressed herself.

'Got to go now,' Corfi said, realizing he was having a bit of trouble
breathing. 'I've got some work to take care of.'
