I told them they were using the wrong
approach. I know I did my best, but really all I did was to bring Number 6 and
Number 8 together. For them to build something of an understanding based on the
idea that Nadia had, like Number 6, committed no crime, all she had done was to
resign. By which she would gain his sympathy. All I had to do then was to see
the two of them escape The Village unhindered, it was easy really. Number 6 was
so willing to believe that Nadia knew the location of The Village, and that’s
what gave him to Number 8. I wasn’t even required to ask the questions, that
duty fell to the Colonel. I suppose the fact that Post 5 had his wristwatch set
at English time instead of Polish time could be laid at my door. But really how
was anyone to know that Number 6’s wristwatch would become waterlogged,
requiring him to ask for Post 5’s wristwatch. Only Number 6 could possibly know
that he wanted to time the journey to London , just making sure. But then what plan
which involved Number 6 ever succeeded? If I had had my way........oh well,
file Number 6, section 42, subsection 1, paragraph 1....back to the beginning!
Be seeing you
