Four days but no word from Jimmy led Penelope walking to his house.

When she saw him, she was devastated. He looked like a madman; his hair was scattered and he looked dull. She never knew he could look like that.
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBA14vIW5Rh
When he raised up his head to look at her, he lolled his head.
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKcsGpUlQjH
“Jimmy!” It was more than a scream. She ran to him and grabbed his face.
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP1isdzbShS
“What the hell happened to you,Jimmy,” She panicked.
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0Kw4KLOZQ7
He released her grip on him and stared.
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdGpCxJVKK0
“Now get up and put on some clothes,” She instructed.
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkMmVxS4O82
“Are you my girlfriend,” he asked.
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlfTBv0GGYO
“Just do as I say okay.”
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp63UqVFxad
Soon Jimmy was dressed with his hair tousled and they went to a restaurant. She ordered snacks and juices for them.
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxMC0W7n2xp
“Why did you return?” Jimmy asked. “Why don’t you guys just quit?”
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhL6SgDP3Nt
“Mr Vlad has been sacked since last year October and Mr Roy
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKxbHolFDvk
is now Chief,” Penelope started. “He has been a good boss. Very reliable.”
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGgSeJbXm0O
“Why are you telling me all this now?” Jimmy asked.
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyfhWZtbqr9
“Look Jimmy we need you even though you don’t know,” Abigail pointed out.
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaK8jxcdYcq
“Well I don’t need you guys,” Jimmy repiled stiffly, looking away.
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPBdKMUpJJq
“So are you gonna ignore me again, after depriving me of the due care because of what happened?” She asked. “Tell me Jimmy. Tell me.”
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA7Kwio36Ny
He didn’t answer. He had long stop blaming her in his heart but he felt guilty.
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxciFNUUEX6
“Fine. If you can’t do it for me, do it for Abigail. Who knows, you could find out the culprit and the real truth.”
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9pcIcEJ1od
Jimmy turned to her swiftly and she grinned.

Mr Roy sat expectantly formimg a steeple on his desk and leaning forward muttering prayers when the two people he expected walked in. he sprang up and cried. “ I am so disappointed you eventually decided to come “
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzp5EZyXu1x
Jimmy raised an eyebrow. “ I.E?”
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ33iSwHlB1e
“ Ironic Expression.”
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoLlRh3OjUM
Penelope laughed.
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFDq2WNBIt3
“ You have not changed a bit, Mr Roy. You still use your intials for that?”
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5FuwNTioED
“ You have not changed either,” Mr Roy answered. “ You still have your heaet. I feared you wouldn’t come!”
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwmy2D6mhiq
Jimmy glanced at Abigail. “Well, you sent the right someone and that someone got my weakness straight on point.”
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfo3zasQJ9c
Abigail smiled and Mr Roy gave her a thumps up.
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgqGEn4Ftkz
“Now I’m here. So what’s the deal?”

The five of them sat round the table; Mr Roy, Penelope, Jimmy, Neil and the ever arrogant but smart Batton.
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMZa9lciOKc
“We are glad to have you back here Jimmy. We can’t hide out joy,” Mr Roy started.
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeezlRFbGWX
“Well I don’t think it’s everyone,” Jimmy said, glancing at Batton. “But don’t worry, this is the last mission. I repeat Mr Roy, the very last.”
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkW0bgwVyjo
Batton scoffed and shrugged. “I don’t care.”
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqUoGsCxBYA
But he did. When Jimmy was still at work, they were both competing for the best. Jimmy was always far ahead and that was what spoiled their relationship. Earlier they had been friends. In fact, Batton was the one who talked Jimmy in to be part of the SF and now he regretted. Just when he thought he had no competitor anymore, Jimmy came strolling in and receiving praises. Ill-made relationship they say, was hard to cut off.
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGRXSFdadG2
“No scuffles now please,” Penelope intervened and turned to Mr Roy. “Please begin.”
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmRT0VpjcOm
“So what’s the SF gotten so far?” Jimmy asked, deliberately taunting Batton. “It can’t be nothing since we have a smartie here.”
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUNuYWWSvHJ
“Of course it isn’t nothing. May I do the honour of saying the information?” Batton looked at Mr Roy direction.
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFzUZWv5Fk8
“Sure,” Mr Roy repiled.
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkE2SVKct7l
Batton turned to Jimmy with a grin.
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz8f06uxU91
“Without your help, the SF found out that there is going to be a party at the leading hotel ballroom in two days and there will be an exchange of USB where a vital information we must get our hands on is,” Batton started proudly. “We also found the safe where the USB will likely be kept that night. So I don’t see any reason you were invited back.”
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWhZu34GBZr
Jimmy returned the grin.”Well it must be something important that you are so useless to do. How about that?”
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7n0Ti3Ncl7
Batton flushed angrily but kept his calm.
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXErarnedrU
“That is where you will come in Jimmy. So far your record have never been beaten,” Mr Roy said. “You are all attending and participating in the mission but we need you to do the most dangerous part. Getting to the safe.”
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEUbtCd1wLY
Jimmy chuckled. “So you brought me in to pass a death sentence to me?”
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4G0hjwk9im
“We are all under a death sentence passed unto us by God but we don’t just know the day of execution,” Neil said.
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoDqyAskqIG
Jimmy turned to him. “So you are acting the pastor now?”
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaMK4y5l5sl
Neil shrugged.
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkjVQYBQutr
“You know something Neil, I will use your words against you someday,” Jimmy said and turned to Mr Roy. “So who’s the receiver?”
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtXXJb5U7BO
Mr Roy turned to Penelope.
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzlO6EPRkzK
“He is Mr Lewis, a multi-billionaire. An old money, his family is into glass,” She explained. “Our latest conclusion is that he is only a mere sponsor of the upcoming massacre and that is because he will make a profit from it.”
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSgzxTLE5ne
Mr Roy completed the explanation. “So we need five people for this job; the thief, the pickpocket, the seducer and two guards.”
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc7hYrzoaPk
“How about we do it this way? I will be the thief, Penelope will be the seducer, and Neil along with Batton will be the guards,” Jimmy suggested. “As for the pickpocket, I have someone in mind.”
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmToTQKRfh9
The car pulled in front of an old cottage. “Remain in the car,” Jimmy instructed and got down. He walked to the door and knocked on it softly. In some seconds, the door opened and someone stood in the doorway.
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOep3LOmLlz
“Hey Robin. It’s been a while,” Jimmy said.
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHSfyLWDmP7
“Hey my pal Jimmy,” the person repiled. “Come on in.”
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeabsCLMjtL
Jimmy walked inside. He sat while Robin prepared coffee for them.
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSe2LJ816yL
“Here,” Robin said giving Jimmy a cup.
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdgDlJDS4TP
Jimmy accepted it. “Thanks.”
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcFFg2oXsf5
Robin sat. “So what brings you here jimmy? Or should I say what favour do you want to ask for?”
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoKt3iaijtn
Jimmy grinned. “Well since you know, I will go straight to the point. I do need a favour.”
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf3SSFpf2gP
“I knew it! You seldom stop by for any other purpose. So what’s it?”
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDRinrHvbLa
“I have a mission from the SF,” Jimmy started.
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXju9Z6HXO4
Robin lifted an eyebrow. “You back there?”
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv2JVx2TpWA
Jimmy nodded. “I am on a last mission. I need you to be the pickpocket.”
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRtIOq5awZs
Robin friendly look faded away. “I am done with that part of my life.”
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO5km8HI8LW
“Please Robin. Take this as the last favour.”
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWi9KhqX40w
There was a moment of hesitation. “It won’t be the last favour but you own me one.”
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMaqoWDY7Pe
Jimmy grinned.
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1jJQvFt4gA
“He agreed,” Jimmy announced when he got back into the car.
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHkxrayWNeH
“Jimmy, you are doing the most dangerous of the mission. Stay safe,”Penelope said with concern.
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvDY4nkFp7N
“If I don’t survive, remember you are the one who made me do this,” Jimmy repiled sending a wave of fear mixed with shock to Penelope. Then he added, "Don’t worry,I’ll be fine.”
