"You can have Lucas back on one condition. You kill Adam Carter," Kachimov paused briefly, trying to read a little more into Harry's expression. It was no use; he had his poker face on.
Harry would have laughed at such an absurd suggestion had it not been for the seriousness of the situation unravelling before him.
"You're getting your agent back who we have so kindly been looking after for you, asking me to sacrifice my officers as a form of compromise is out of the question."
Kachimov smiled slightly pursing his lips as he tried to figure out his next move. He knew his requests were unfair and, more to the point, unrealistic, but he was going to overthrow section D once and for all, Adam was just the start of their downfall plan.
"Adam Carter will be killed with or without your co-operation Harry, it will be done. If you want at least one agent alive in your department I suggest you keep me on side. Lucas remains ours until we reach an agreement."
Sneering slighly, Kachimov forced a smile and left without saying another word. There was something about this that didn't seem quite right. This wasn't an ordinary exchange, and this needed to be dealt with carefully. He knew he should tell Adam straight away, this was an operation that needed serious planning. No, this stayed need to know until he had solid foundations.
He needed to find a way to fool Kachimov, fake Adam's death convincingly and ensure Lucas got home safely. It was possible, and there was only one officer for the job.
Rummaging around in his pocket to find the desired gadget, he typed in Connie's number and held the phone impatiently to his ear. Luckily for her, she answered on the second ring.
"Connie, it's me... No I'm fine. I need you to do something for me; no question asked is that clear?"
After hearing Connie promise him secrecy he allowed himself a few moments to make sure this was the right thing to do. Eventually he spoke.
"I think it's time to bring Rangefinder home."
