Then
what
makes
you
think
that
they
wouldn
’
t
have
been
pleased
to
see
us
?
"
She
looked
at
him
rather
sadly
,
like
a
mother
trying
to
explain
to
an
infant
that
,
yes
this
flame
was
hot
,
too
.
All
flames
were
hot
.
Trust
her
,
please
.
"
Come
on
,
"
she
said
.
"
I
know
a
shortcut
.
We
can
nip
through
London
Above
for
a
bit
.
"
They
went
up
some
stone
steps
,
and
the
girl
pushed
open
a
door
.
They
stepped
through
,
and
the
door
shut
behind
them
.
Richard
looked
around
,
puzzled
.
They
were
standing
on
the
Embankment
,
the
miles
-
long
walkway
that
the
Victorians
had
built
along
the
north
shore
of
the
Thames
,
covering
the
drainage
system
and
the
newly
created
District
Line
of
the
Underground
,
and
replacing
the
stinking
mudflats
that
had
festered
along
the
banks
of
the
Thames
for
the
previous
five
hundred
years
.
It
was
still
night
—
or
perhaps
it
was
night
once
more
.
He
was
unsure
how
long
they
had
been
walking
through
the
underplaces
and
the
dark
.
There
was
no
moon
,
but
the
night
sky
was
a
riot
of
crisp
and
glittering
autumn
stars
.
There
were
streetlights
too
,
and
lights
on
buildings
and
on
bridges
,
which
looked
like
earthbound
stars
,
and
they
glimmered
,
repeated
,
as
they
were
reflected
with
the
city
in
the
night
water
of
the
Thames
.
It
’
s
fairyland
,
thought
Richard
.
Anaesthesia
blew
out
her
candle
.
And
Richard
said
,
"
Are
you
sure
this
is
the
right
way
?
"
"
Yes
,
"
she
said
.
"
Pretty
sure
.
"
They
were
approaching
a
wooden
bench
,
and
the
moment
he
set
eyes
on
it
,
it
seemed
to
Richard
that
that
bench
was
one
of
the
most
desirable
objects
he
had
ever
seen
.
"
Can
we
sit
down
?
"
he
asked
.
"
Just
for
a
minute
.
"
She
shrugged
.
They
sat
down
at
opposite
ends
of
the
bench
.
"
On
Friday
,
"
said
Richard
,
"
I
was
with
one
of
the
finest
investment
analyst
firms
in
London
.
"
"
What
’
s
a
investment
an
’
a
thing
?
"
"
It
was
my
job
.
