Today it?s all computerized photo scans entered by machines from on highI don?t get to go on
those wonderful trips any longer with military escorts, pretending I?ll be deliciously attacked by
Mata HariI haven?t had a briefcase chained to my wrist since I can?t remember when
?A lot safer that way,? said Alex
Robert Ludlum ?? THE BOURNE ULTIMATUM

?But very little I can tell my grandchildren about, old boy?What did you do as a big spy,
Grandpa???Actually, in my last years, a great many crossword puzzles, young manDeSole,? said the DCI, chuckling?I shouldn?t care to put in a recommendation
to cut your payOn the other hand, I couldn?t, because I don?t believe you for an instant Conklin spoke quietly, angrily?This is a setup,? he added, staring at the
overweight gucci leather wallets analyst
?That?s quite a statement, Alex,? countered DeSole?Would you mind explaining it??
?You know why I?m here, don?t you??
?I didn?t know you were hereIt just happened to be convenient for you to be ?down the hall? and ready to come in
here
?My office is down the hallQuite far down, I might add
Conklin looked at the DCI?Again, very smooth, sirBring in three people you figure I?ve had
no major run-ins with outside of the system itself, three men you?ve determined I basically trust, so
I?ll believe whatever?s said
?That?s fundamentally accurate, MrConklin, because what you?ll hear is the truthPerhaps at this end of the table so that our former colleague can study us as we
explain to himI understand it?s a technique favored by field officers
?I haven?t a damn thing to explain,? gucci replica said the analyst as he headed for the chair next to Casset
?But in light of our former colleague?s somewhat gross remarks, I?d like to study himAre you
well, Alex??
?He?s well,? answered the deputy director named Valentino?He?s snarling at the wrong
shadows but he?s well
?That information couldn?t have surfaced without the consent and cooperation of the people in
this room!?
?What information?? asked DeSole, looking at the DCI, suddenly widening his large eyes
behind his glasses?Oh, the max-classified thing you asked me about this morning??
The director nodded, then looked at Conklin?Let?s go back to this morningSeven hours
ago, shortly after nine o?clock, I received a call from Edward McAllister, formerly of the State
Department and currently chairman of the National louis vuitton replicas Security AgencyMcAllister was
with you in Hong Kong, MrConklin, is that correct??
?MrMcAllister was with us,? agreed Alex flatly?He flew undercover with Jason Bourne to
Macao, where he was shot up so badly he damn near diedHe?s an intellectual oddball and one of
the bravest men I?ve ever met
?He said nothing about the circumstances, only that he was there, and I was to shred my
calendar, if need be, but to consider our meeting with you as Priority RedThere are heavy reasons for the cannonsMcAllister gave me the precise maximum-classified codes that would
clarify the status of the file you?re talking about?the record of the Hong Kong operationI, in turn,
gave the information to MrDeSole, so I?ll let him tell you what he learned
?It hasn?t been touched, Alex,? said DeSole gucci handbags cheap quietly, his eyes leveled on Conklin?As of ninethirty
this morning, it?s been in a black hole for four years, five months, twenty-one days, eleven
hours and forty-three minutes without penetrationAnd there?s a very good reason why that status
is pure, but I have no idea whether you?re aware of it or not
?Where that file is concerned I?m aware of everything!?

?Perhaps, perhaps not,? said DeSole gently?You were known to have a problem, and DrPanov
is not that experienced where security matters are concerned
?What the hell are you driving at??
?A third name was added to the clearance procedures for that official record on Hong Kong
Edward Newington McAllister, by his own insistence and with both presidential and hermes kelly congressional
