The Blog of Roon

Well, Shirley and Margaret made it into Madras all right, and a telegram awaiting them gave some indication that the Bad Guys are not to be found in the vicinity.

(Not that Shirley trusts that overmuch. Especially considering that the source of the telegram predicted earlier that the Bad Guys would be in Madras. Shirley is inclined to believe they haven’t any more of a clue what’s going on than he does.)

Margaret managed to thoroughly embarrass the poor bloke, who is otherwise starting to feel very much like a fifth wheel. We shall see.

But first we have to get out of Madras without getting ourselves shot up or beaten senseless. Trust Li to lull us into a sense of security and then throw everything in the book at us. This player doesn’t lull.

(And I have a few notions of what’s coming that I’m not sharing. I don’t know how to stay even an inch ahead of Li except by not showing all my hand.)
