#1001 EP. 10-3. 10. CONTINUED: BOB: The Seismotron plans were lost, but building the actual machine will not be an easy matter for The Raven. It requires a special radium vapor tube made only by the government. Professor Parker had already sent for one, and it's due to come in today from the government warehouse by truck. NOLAND: Do you think it's wise to let this valuable piece of equipment come in by truck? The Raven is sure to make an attempt on it. JEFF: The truck has a police motorcycle escort and should be perfectly safe on the main highway, which will be heavily guarded anyway. WALTERS: Perhaps, but once it reaches the heavy traffic of the city it will be in grave danger. BOB: We've prepared for that. Jeff and I will meet the truck at the King's Crossing Bridge in a small, unmarked panel truck and bring the shipment directly to the Industrial Institute, where it will be placed under guard until it is needed. MERTON: But, why not cancel the shipment, instead of all this bother? JEFF: Because we're hoping The Raven's men will try to hijack the truck once it reaches the city, and all they'll find is a police trap. |
