“Well, Hans, I will do so,” – said Kim, and with a grin went off to carry out the task.
“I'm not Hans, I'm boss for you,” – said Hans, – “you get it, right?”
“Got it, boss,” – said Kim, ceasing to smile, and then hastened to leave.
Everything was ready for departure. Currant bushes were also prepared, but not yet immersed in the capsule. Hans handed the medical pistol to Arkady and said, – “Arkasha, as we load the currants, you will make the hostages an injection. Don’t throw the gun, we’ll take it with us. Everything must be done cleanly.”
Then Hans turned to Kim, – “why don't you load the currants?”
“Boss, then there will not be enough place for one person.”
“Do you know how much these two currant bushes cost?”
"I guess, boss."
"They cost like this house on the water. This is a fortune. And do you know how much your life is worth?"
“Boss, just not that,” – Kim scared.
"Do you remember Bulka at the base?"
"Yes, boss, she was delicious."
"It was my favorite dog. Do you like to eat fish?"
"Yes, boss. I did not know that you like Bulka."
“Now the fish will eat you,” – said Hans and began to take out an ultrasound bullet generator from his holster.
Kim grabbed his holster and also tried to get a bullet generator, but the intelligent drone with Kuznetsov's beam turned Kim into a motionless fried piece of meat in uniform.
“Smith, throw this piece of refried shit to the sea,” – said Hans, and he carefully began to load the currant bushes into the capsule. Having loaded the bushes, Hans sat down in a capsule at the control panel and turned on the autopilot to the base. It remains to press the ‘start’ button. Then he nodded to Arkady and Arkady proceeded to fulfill the order of Hans. He opened the first-aid kit and began to install two liquid pills with mamba poison in a medical pistol.
“Abdulla, look why Smith is busy for a long time, or help him,” – said Hans from the capsule cabin, and comfortably sitting in his chair, began to watch Arkady will give injections to the hostages. Hans always controlled the execution of his errands, and he liked to watch people being killed.
Meanwhile, Smith successfully threw Kim's body overboard. It hit the water with a noise. Making sure that the body began to sink under water, Smith turned around and saw an unknown thin man in front of him. It was Kmykh. Having received a blow to the neck, Smith lost consciousness and began to fall. Kmykh grabbed him and gently lowered him to the deck, then with a sharp movement broke his vertebras of neck. Then Kmykh got up and started moving towards the barbecue area. He had already familiarized himself with the location of the cabins and decks, and the places where the terrorists could be. His capsule Maserati was five kilometers from this house at a height of two meters from the water and two intelligent sniper drone were already in position and hovered two kilometers from the target. Their goal was two terrorist guard drones. They were waiting for Kmykh’s command and were in touch. “There are three left,” – Kmykh thought, and continued moving toward the barbecue area. Hearing the steps, Kmykh stopped. Another terrorist hurried to help Smith. It was Abdullah, who did not suspect anything. A short burst of ultrasound from the bullet generator blew Abdullah's head into small pieces. He fell on the deck just without a head.
"Two left", – thought Kmykh and gave the command to the drones – snipers.
“First and second sniper, fire!” – Said Kmykh, and turning on his reactive boots, he rose above the cabin. Before his eyes opened a barbecue area, an UAZ armored capsule and a terrorist with a medical pistol. The terrorist was at a loss and looked into Hans's eyes with a question. Nearby on the deck lay two drones with burnt smoking holes. “One needs to be left alive,” Kmykh thought, and shot to terrorist’s hand which holds a medical pistol.
Hans realized that this was an FSB operation and he needed to save his ass immediately. It was impossible to leave Arkady alive – the FSB used inhumane methods of interrogation and they could find out the location of the base. Hans was already holding a bullet generator in his hands and he did not have time for a shootout with Kmykh. Kmykh had a more advantageous position and he was already directing his bullet generator at Hans. Hans made the only right decision – he fired a short line at Arkady, who was standing nearby, and pressed the "start" button. The cabin instantly slammed shut, and the capsule jerked from its place toward the side. “First and second sniper, fire on UAZ capsule,” – Kmykh said, but it was too late. The UAZ capsule was already submerged under water. Kmykh knew that it was a terribly uncomfortable and not fast capsule, and this model could move through the air at a speed of 60 kilometers per hour, but under water its speed was 90 knots. It was a deep-sea armored model which commonly used for encashment of underwater establishments. Maserati capsule could be submerged only for two meters, and Kmykh could not pursue the terrorist.
“Snipers, return to the capsule,” Kmykh said and sank down to the deck.
Bill and Priscilla were shocked by what they saw.
“Hi brother,” – Bill said and hugged Kmykh.
"HI Bill. I see you are not bored here."
“It's some kind of nightmare,” – said Priscilla, and cried.
"Do you have cigarettes?" – Asked Kmykh from Bill, – "I want to smoke."
"No, these bandits smoked my Cuban cigars, took a bottle of real French wine, drank a box of beer and took two real currant bushes. I was going to sell them and pay off loans with Naibul Bank."
“Indeed,” – said Kmykh, but then he remembered that he would be able to read his thoughts in management and quickly added, “however", turning off the transmission of thoughts.”
“Okay, where can I park Maserati here?”
"You are really cool! There is space on the stern deck."
“Well, there I have some whitefish without excise taxes,” Kmykh said and asked Alice to turn on the hologram of the instrument panel of his capsule.
“Do you ride Maserati and buy without excise cigarettes? And where did you get the money for Maserati?"
"This is FSB property. I had to go to work FSB."
“How long have you been working there? You haven’t told me anything before.”
“Since you were taken hostage. By the way, they stole your deputy, and he himself brought them information from the GKZ library. I suppose he's at their base now. Why do they need him on the base? What do you think?"
“I think they will force him to do a project for drilling a tunnel into the royal palace” Looks like they want to get in there."
“Will you show me your house?”
“Yes, of course,” – said Bill and turned to Priscilla, – “bunny, you need to sleep. Good?"
“Good, hare,” – Priscilla laughed and went to the sleeping cabin.
Kmykh on the dashboard of Maserati noticed that snipers – drones had already plunged into the trunk. He turned on the start of the engines and began to direct the capsule towards the houseboat. He really wanted to smoke. When Bill and Eugene walked into control room, Kmykh had already planted Maserati in a guest place for capsules in the stern of the house. And Bill, meanwhile, activated his drone and turned on the autopilot of the houseboat in the direction of London. The house began to slowly pick up its six knots and cut low waves. Kmykh turned off the dashboard, got up from his chair and went to the capsule for cigarettes. He brought two cigarettes for Bill and himself, and then sat down in chair.
“Well, let's go. I'll show the house,” Bill said.
"Well, just let's have a smoke first. I wonder why Ippolite agreed to work for them and brought them information. How did they put pressure on him? He has no relatives in Britain. And terrorists cannot receive information about a person. It is all stored on the territory of the Royal Palace. Such information can only be obtained by the FSB upon request."
"He has an adult daughter on the moon. She has a small cafe for tourists."
"What is the name of this cafe?"
"I do not remember. Ippolite said that it was near the Chaika casino and in this cafe served vodka briquettes with the taste of sauerkraut. Yes, I still remember that she is 232 years old, and every year she happens to be updating the body in Britain. This is in Sklif in Moscow. Ippolite buys renewal for her body every year. Perhaps the bandits tracked Ippolite' payments through Naibul Bank."
"But Sklif does not accept payments from Naibul Bank, everyone knows that."
"Accepts, but requires showing the origin of the money. By the way, our dad always paid in advance for our body renewal. Now he is retired and we must take care and updating the body of dad in the first place. So far, I manage to buy updates for my dad every year. I mustn't lose my job."
"Me too. Some rich people pay a hundred or even two hundred years to upgrade. It’s a paradox, but sometimes proletariat can buy updates, for example, you, an employee, and bourgeoisie cannot, for example, the owner of a cafe or restaurant."
“This is not a paradox, Eugene. Brains are valued more than the restaurant business. Knowledge is power.”
“Well, suppose the terrorists put pressure on Ippolite, taking his daughter hostage. They couldn’t take her out of the Moon. The customs service of the Moon will not allow it. There are two options. Or they took Ippolite and her daughter at the same time, and the daughter agreed to fly to Britain, since her father was held hostage. Or the terrorists have a base on the moon. It makes no sense to bring her to Britain. So I need to look for their base on the moon. Perhaps it serves as a haven for terrorists and invaders from Saturn. There on the moon, every rabble from all the planets is going to play casino and many other entertainments. Not everyone can get a visa to Britain, and it doesn't depend on his planet of origin. The commerce chambers of the moon also attract many swindlers. I was there one hundred and twelve years ago, transporting equipment to a military base. Now people say that everything has changed a lot."
"Okay, we smoked, let's go, Eugene, I'll show the house."
"By the way, I brought six cans of beer and food. There are briquettes with the taste of cheesecakes with sour cream. Do you want?"
"I wouldn’t refuse beer. Well, and I need to sleep."
"At night I bought sleep in a red telephone box, and now only in the evening I will want to sleep. When will we arrive in London?"
“About thirty hours later.”
“So I have to sleep and dream like poor people. But my friend says that rich people also sleep to dream."
"Do you have a girlfriend?"
"Yes, she is Alice."
“You are one hundred and fifty-five, and you will never grow up.”
"Do you have fishing rods? I want to fish."
"Are fishing rods and spinning rods, no vodka.
"Then I instantly flies to a shop. There and back about twenty minutes will leave. I can grab briquettes with a taste of herring spiced salting.
"Do not. Rest better. So let's go watch a house?"
"Yes, I already studied it according to the schemes before the operation. So I’m better off guiding you here. Furniture wanted an old look. I hope it is as old as the house itself."
After inspecting the house, the brothers went on deck. Kmykh went to the capsule and released three drones.
“Look, brother,” – said Kmykh, – “these are three intelligent drones. One drone will always protect Priscilla, the second will always be with you. The third drone is a sniper. He will also always be with you, and he constantly monitors the airspace."
"Thank you brother."
“Drones, get down to duty,” – said Kmykh.
Immediately one drone went to the door of Priscilla’s sleeping cabin, the second drone flew off four meters and hovered, watching the situation around Bill. The third drone rose above the cabin, magnetized to its roof and began to scan the airspace within a radius of five kilometers.
"Something I was tired too and did not get enough sleep, I’ll go to sleep with Priscilla. I did not sleep for almost a day and everything was on my nerves. If you want to sleep, you already know where your cabin is. By the way, you can fly into the house at any time, park and sleep as much as you like."
“Thank you, brother,” – Kmykh said, – "I’ll go to bed too and talk with Alice."
Bill went down to the lower deck and went to the sleeping cabin. An intelligent guard drone followed him. Kmykh also went to his cabin, got on the bed and said, – “Alice, hello!”
"Hi! Long time no see."
"Alice, I’ll sleep four hours until the evening, I want to see dreams. You need to send two employees and five security drones to guard the chief architect of London. Perhaps the terrorists will want to get a plan of the underground premises of the Royal Palace."
“Have a good sleep, Eugene. Have already sent. And two more drones are on duty at the Zaha Hadid library."
"Well. Bye, beautiful. Bye."
“Goodbye, Eugene.”
Casino Palma
Juan Torpedos and Yegor Podvalny have been tourists on the moon for several days. They arrived from Phobos. The inhabitants of Phobos were willingly allowed to the Moon without a visa, but the path to the Britain was closed to them. They liked to ride through the deep tunnels of the Moon from one casino to another and spend Britcoins, which they could easily get at any ATM of the Moon. The lights of the brillon advertising attracted them. This time they flew at a speed of 30 km per hour, which was maximum allowed for the Moon tunnels. They wanted something unusual. Seeing a tall palm tree at the entrance to a casino, Torpedos offered to stop.
"Look, a real palma!" – Torpedos said, – "let's take a look here."
“Why did you decide that it is real palma? Bananas grow on a real one, – and on this only a couple of tacos,” – answered the Podvalny.
"Not tacos, but coconuts, dunce! Tacos are beef and potato flavored briquettes,” – said Torpedos.
“And where are they made?”
"It is clear that on Mars. This is the birthplace of potatoes."
"How do you know? You were not on Mars."
“Have been told us at school,” – answered Torpedos.
“You were kicked out of first grade for behavior.”
"For that I had a good mark in physical education. Then where are grow the bananas?"
“It is known where, only in Britain, only it seems not on palm trees, I don’t remember exactly,” answered Podvalny, “the teacher of electromagnetic mathematics told us. I just forgot the place. There are many places, not like on the little Phobos."
“Don't make yourself a wise guy, Podvalny. You and I were at the same desk at school, and I don’t remember something like that."
“Well, this is one year we were sitting at the desk, and then you were not at the desk, but in the Kranty prison.”
"I did not sit long in prison. I deceived them all and they transferred me to a psychiatric hospital."
“You did not deceive them, Torpedos. You convinced them with your intellect."
"Good to be smart! We go to casino."
"And into which casino? There are two of them. Read the title."
"Casino with a palm tree. What is not clear here?"
"And what does it is written, what it is called?"
"It’s called – I’ll knock your eye out now."
