\u201cSo let me get this straight, you are going to walk into his office, shoot him in the face, take the USB key from computer and walk out?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cYeah.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cDon\u2019t you think that\u2019s a bit risky? I mean won\u2019t his people hear the gunshot? Even if they don\u2019t, isn\u2019t there a good chance someone will find his carcass and raise the alarm?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cYeah.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cShouldn\u2019t we talk about alternatives? Maybe a diversion and I go in to steal the USB key covertly, you know go for the subtle approach?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cNope.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cWhat do you mean \u2018Nope\u2019?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cI mean, nope.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cI give up, you have a deathwish, not to mention the psychosis that planning to casually murder someone suggests. Good luck Paden, I can\u2019t be a part of this. I\u2019m sorry.\u201d<\/p>\n
He nodded, spat at his feet and pulled the brim of his hat down. He remained silent for just a few more seconds and then;<\/p>\n
\u201cOk then. You\u2019d best scoot.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cI can\u2019t persuade you to leave the cold blooded murder then?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cHe killed my wife, my mother and my dog. Shooting him once in the face is kind compared to what I\u2019d like to do to him, you know?\u201d<\/p>\n
