'That sounds good.'

'Let us hope so.'

'So what do you want me to do?'

Another delicate throat-clearing. 'In due course. May I ask, once again, if the
sleeve is comfortable?'

'It seems very.' Sudden realisation. Very smooth, response at impressive levels
even for someone used to Corps combat custom. A beautiful body, on the inside at
least. 'Is this something new from Nakamura?'

'No.' Does the woman's gaze slant upward and left? She's a security exec, she's
probably wired with retinal datadisplay. 'Harkany Neurosystems, grown under
offworld licence for KhumaloCape.'

Envoys aren't supposed to suffer from surprise. Any frowning I did would have
to be on the inside. 'Khumalo? Never heard of them.'

'No, you wouldn't have.'

'Excuse me?'

'Suffice it to say we have equipped you with the very best biotech available. I
ioubt I need to enumerate the sleeve's capacities to someone of your background.
Should you wish detail, there is a basic manual accessible through the datadisplay
were not culturing specifically for Envoy use, and there has not been time to
irrange anything customised.'

'You 'we got a crisis on your hands?'

'Very astute, Kovacs-san. Yes, the situation might fairly be described as critical.
We would like you to go to work immediately.'

Well, that's what they pay me for.'

'Yes.' Would she broach the matter of exactly who was paying at this point?
░robably not. 'Asyou've no doubt already guessed this will be a covert deployment.
Very different from Sharya. Though you did have some experience of dealing with
errorists towards the end of that campaign, I believe.'

'Yeah.' After we smashed their IP fleet, jammed their data transmission
ystems, blew apart their economy and generally killed their capacity for global
lefiance, there were still a few diehards who didn't get the Protectorate message.
So we hunted them down. Infiltrate, befriend, subvert, betray. Murder in back
alleys. 7 did that for a while.'
