Ah
,
the
Elliott
girl
.
Yes
,
Oumou
has
told
me
about
this
.
Do
you
seriously
think
her
father
had
something
to
do
with
my
death
?
"
I
turned
back
.
"
Not
now
,
no
.
I
seriously
believe
he
had
nothing
to
do
with
your
death
,
in
fact
.
But
I
’
ve
wasted
a
lot
of
time
finding
that
out
.
"
Bancroft
met
my
eye
calmly
.
"
I
’
m
sorry
if
my
briefing
was
inadequate
,
Mr
.
Kovacs
.
It
is
true
,
I
spend
some
of
my
leisure
time
in
purchased
sexual
release
,
both
real
and
virtual
.
Or
,
as
you
so
elegantly
put
it
,
whorehouses
.
I
’
d
not
considered
it
especially
important
.
Equally
,
I
spend
part
of
my
time
in
small
-
scale
gambling
.
And
occasionally
null
-
gravity
knife
fighting
.
All
of
these
things
could
make
me
enemies
,
as
indeed
could
most
of
my
business
interests
.
I
didn
’
t
feel
that
your
first
day
in
a
new
sleeve
on
a
new
world
was
the
time
for
a
line
-
by
-
line
explanation
of
my
life
.
Where
would
I
expect
to
begin
?
Instead
,
I
told
you
the
background
of
the
crime
and
suggested
that
you
talk
to
Oumou
.
I
didn
’
t
expect
you
to
take
off
after
the
first
clue
like
a
heatseeker
.
Nor
did
I
expect
you
to
lay
waste
everything
that
got
in
your
way
.
I
was
told
the
Envoy
Corps
had
a
reputation
for
subtlety
.
"
Put
like
that
,
he
had
a
point
.
Virginia
Vidaura
would
have
been
furious
,
she
probably
would
have
been
right
behind
Bancroft
,
waiting
to
deck
me
for
gross
lack
of
finesse
.
But
then
,
neither
she
nor
Bancroft
had
been
looking
into
Victor
Elliott
’
s
face
the
night
he
told
me
about
his
family
.
I
swallowed
a
sharp
retort
and
marshalled
what
I
knew
,
trying
to
decide
how
much
to
let
go
of
.
"
Laurens
?
"
Miriam
Bancroft
was
standing
just
outside
the
conservatory
,
a
towel
draped
around
her
neck
and
her
racket
under
one
arm
.
"
Miriam
.
"
There
was
a
genuine
deference
in
Bancroft
’
s
tone
,
but
little
else
that
I
could
determine
.
"
I
’
m
taking
Nalan
and
Joseph
out
to
Hudson
’
s
Raft
for
a
scuba
lunch
.
Joseph
’
s
never
done
it
before
,
and
we
’
ve
talked
him
into
it
.
"
She
glanced
from
Bancroft
to
myself
and
back
.
"
Will
you
be
coming
with
us
?
"
"
Maybe
later
,
"
said
Bancroft
.
"
Where
will
you
be
?
"
