There was complete silence in the hall. Everyone listened with interest to the speech. Yesenia was also present in the hall and listened attentively to him.
Suddenly, Solomon saw how Carlos sat down next to Yesenia and began to say something quickly to her. Yesenia's face tightened and became concentrated.
Solomon continued his speech by presenting to the public interesting data from previously unpublished methods and experiments.
Suddenly, Solomon saw that Yesenia's place was empty. Carlos disappeared with her.
"Where did they go in such a hurry? – thought Solomon, – and the phone is turned off!”
At this time, the chairman called a break, and those present in the hall began to go out.
Solomon ran up to the third floor towards the cafe; it was empty there.
A message has been received on the mobile phone. Solomon immediately opened it; it was from Yersinia.
"Don't look for her."
The number again was undetectable.
“Come back to the conference!”
“Someone is watching my every move. And this someone is very close."
Solomon began to look around carefully. Nothing suspicious.
"This someone controls my every step."
Solomon looked down. The break ended and the conference participants entered the hall.
Instead of going downstairs, Solomon quickly walked towards the cafe.
–Where is your emergency exit? – he asked the waiter.
– Over there, through the kitchen.
Solomon passed the kitchen and went down to the first floor in the service elevator. Another door, and now he was in the backyard.
"Do you think you could hide from me?"
Solomon took off his badge, turned it over in his hand, and, without thinking, threw it into the trash.
"Now let, the plague bitch, look for me in the garbage."
London cab pulled up in front of his raised hand.
–Where shall we go, sir? – asked the taxi driver.
–To the Tower, – called Solomon, the most popular excursion route in London.
The taxi arrived to the Tower. Solomon bought a ticket and headed to the fortress. The guide talked about the history of the Tower, about the ravens, about the prisoners, and about the jewels of the Royal dynasty. The phone was still silent and Solomon calmed down.
"So all this time she followed me through this stupid badge."
Solomon dialed Yesenia's number.
The phone was still off. He nervously tossed it into his pocket, but then the bell rang.
–Hello, Mr. Grande. Did I disturb you, sir? – Solomon recognized Spencer's voice.
–Absolutely. I'm even glad you called.
