"You know if you haven't found his second location by tomorrow we'll have to drop him from the project don't you."
Wesley Hungerton looks up at the professor from his mass of papers and files.
"I have every department in the country looking through their files for him, but he's well out of range of our scale. Please, sir, he's such a good candidate. Just a little longer."
"Hungerton we simply cannot afford to take the risk. This is a potentially very dangerous project and we need a full background check on every candidate. There might be something important in his file the other end. Yes, I would very much like Dr Sandhu in the project, because he's from a good time and his profile checks out so far. Plus we have a very strong link to his portal. But it is out of the question. Find his second portal, or he's off and we find a new candidate eight."
The professor goes outside. Hungerton puts his head in his hands and stares at the mass of paper. He stares at the CCTV pictures flicking across the screen. He stares at his empty email inbox. And then he picks up a handset and presses a few buttons.
"Hello it's Hungerton from Holby... Quite mild today actually, look I've got a nephew in your department, same surname, first name Zeb. Can you send his file over please... Yes I have full clearance, it's for the special project... All right, thanks."
He puts the receiver down and twiddles his thumbs a moment as the file blinks onto his computer screen. He scans through it then glances around the room.
Very carefully he goes through the document, changing the names, date of birth, parents' names and so on. Before picking up the receiver again.
"Professor? I've located Dr Sandhu's second portal. He's travelling from Holby to London. Kings Cross. No there's nothing in it you should know about, he's fine for the project."
