Is that what you're trying to
tell me?"
Justin grimaced. "Yeah. And with their freedom of movement, I'd say
it could be anywhere on Earth."
"I think I can find out," she said, standing up and walking to the
phone. She began to dialing, but suddenly stopped and turned to
Justin. "Uncle Justin, would you mind... just going somewhere else for
a moment? Like outside? No, go outside the normal way, through the
door. Thank-you. And shut it behind you!" Justin allowed himself to
be forced outside, where he waited at the top of the steps, wondering
whether or not he could blip himself a coat if the wind got any colder.
"Oh, but baby!" Rhonda squealed on the other end of the line. "I'm not
supposed to say! I didn't want to give you those cigarettes! Denny
told me to!"
"Denny's in on this, too?!"
"Oops," Rhonda muttered.
"Well, forget Denny for a minute. I just need to know how to get to
Seltsam. Is it an avenue? A street?"
"How to get to Seltsam-ee Street!" Rhonda sang, her voice growing
farther away.
Just how wasted is she this time? Julia wondered.
