Chapitre 20: A curious rat

I was the first to arrive in Russia, Brian had a job to do before I came. I went straight to the embassy, with suitcase, bag and all the weapons on me. Hypatia was waiting for me on the steps, with Styles at her side and Lydia at the other, dressed as a secretary. They didn't tell me that, that Lydia was the secretary. Or maybe she was. We had too much on our hands and I was overwhelmed.

I was not very effusive, unlike Lydia. She ran towards me, her face full of piercings and, I assumed, her arms covered with a blouse and jacket, full of tattoos. She often removed her piercings and wore make-up in such a way that it looked like she had never had one. Depending on where she was going.
