Memoirs of an Invisible Man Page #5

The single- family unit

was being shared by eight people.

The heat had been turned off for three weeks

for failure to pay a gas bill.

There was an accident today

at the Magnascopics Laboratory.

A spokesman

for the nuclear regulatory agency says:

"Although the laboratory was the site

of nuclear- fusion research...

... there was no radioactive material

and no risk of contamination. "

- No injuries were reported.

- Bullshit.

Authorities are keeping the area cordoned off

as a precaution.

An Oregon man is being arraigned today on

charges he killed a man nine years ago...

Oh, Jesus.

- What happened?

- Where have you been?

For a moment,

I thought it had all been a dream.

But that didn't last.

I saw the news about the fire

at Magnascopics and I was worried.

The food I hadn't thrown up

the night before had evaporated.

I was as transparent as ever.

- Oh, sh*t.

- Nick. Nick.

I'm here.

- Sort of.

- So, what happened out there?

Cathy, I've been sick as a dog.

What's this about a fire?

You didn't go, then? You're sick?

Well, I'm sorry. Can I send you some soup?

No. No. No. I'll be fine. Just reschedule

all my appointments for Monday.

- Thanks, Cathy. Bye.

- Bye.

It's Roger. Where are you?

Should we be long or short on Allied?

The stock is going crazy.

Would you call me, please?

Hi, Nick. It's Alice.

I'm calling to confirm our lunch on Friday.

Am I being too forward about this?

What am I talking about? We've already

been to the ladies' room together.

See you Friday.

Nick. David Jenkins. Global Devices.

Perhaps we met last night.

We got your name from the register.

There will be an inquiry...

... into what happened at Magnascopics

last night. We'll need a signed statement...

I knew that voice.

Who the hell did he think he was kidding?

These guys were fast.

Robin, it's Nick Halloway.

It's important.

Mr. Cebron's in court today,

but I know he wants to talk to you.

- He does?

- Are you in trouble with the government?

- Why would I be?

- That's what Mr. Cebron asked...

... but they were being real vague.

Oh, can you hold on?

Robin, they're paging my flight.

- Tell him I'll call him when I get to Dallas.

- Dallas?

Who the hell were these guys?

How did they find me so quickly?

I had to get out of there fast.

The first thing I had to do was remember

where I put my jacket and shoes.

Keep that thing low so when I mark him,

you don't get off a headshot.

We're at the front door.

Zebra Team standing by.

- Alpha?

- Ready.

- Delta?

- In place.

- Baker Team?

- Set up.

- You've got a green light.

- Let's take this a**hole.

- This is Jenkins. I'm at the front door.

- Sh*t.

- Give me the status on the roof.
