A ding sounds; the elevator doors open. I step inside and press the button for the lobby. “Anything else?”
The A.D. glances down at the tablet. “Marianne says that there is an additional security system installed within his unit, one similar to that found at Bücherei. Since she’s already figured out the coding to override it, we’ll have no trouble tripping anything once we’re inside. She can deal with it remotely. It’s just getting into the building that’s going to be a challenge.”
“I’m sure you have an idea about how to overcome such odds, don’t you, Master Thief?”
Another flourished bow is offered. “Of course. Marianne has made us a little bomb of sorts.”
“As much as I want Lygari’s head,” I say coldly, “I will not risk innocents.”
He titters nervously. “You’re always so literal, Your Majesty! Marianne has whipped up a virus that we can install into the building’s security system that will render the monitors useless for approximately fifteen minutes. It ought to give us enough time to get up there and have a look around. I’ve got a flash drive with it in my pocket right now.”
I watch the lights on the buttons count down. “Fifteen minutes is not much time.”
“Fifteen minutes,” he says, “is more than zero.”
“How will we get this virus into the security system?”
“Leave it to me.” He clicks off his tablet and tucks it beneath his arm. “All you and Mary need to do is take care of the doorman while I do the rest.”
