Moments later, the tall Zulu ducked out of the elevator and walked up to Glenn and Cross. “Captain. Doctor.” he said with a nod to each and his perpetual scowl. “Is there an issue, Captain?” he asked, obviously unaware of their agenda.

“Could you spare a couple of hours to help me undertake a snap inspection of Red Squad?” asked Glen. “I need a little help and support. Miriam already said she would. I’m not sure there is an ‘issue.’ The Commandant asked me to do it as a favour, but he is acting strangely and didn’t really tell me much. It may be nothing at all.”

“Of course, Captain. I am happy to assist. My time at the Academy demonstrated a leaning to allowing those in Red Squad to get away with things they probably shouldn’t. They may simply need a reminder that the Acdemy is not the fleet.”

His team now assembled, John wanted to get this show on the road, and over, as soon as possible. He had a lecture to give and a trip to Paris to finalise. He didn’t want to waste any time with formalities so they went directly and unannounced to the Red Squad barracks to begin.

“I expect we will find food, porn, liquor, music players, hot plates for cooking, paintball guns, sex aids; all the usual contraband hidden in their lockers,” Glen told them. “That’s just what you would expect to find in cadet’s lockers really. We will report it and that will show that we did our job, but somehow, I don’t think that is what Bradbury wanted. So, keep your eyes peeled for anything more unusual, and your ears open for anything suspicious.”

‘’Right ‘’Cross said ‘’I’ll check if their instructor is in his office and try to keep him there’‘ the female doctor winked at both men, she had already taken a few steps before instantaneously turning back ‘’Wait what if the Red Squad instructor is not a male but a female?’‘ she asked, now a bit confused and taken back.

“I’m not actually sure about the ethics of that,” said Glen. “But since you are so keen… just don’t make it quite so obvious. I mean… if it was me, and some older woman, who I’ve never met before, was suddenly flirting, pawing me, or telling me that I’m cute.... well I might be suspicious if it didn’t happen to me all the time! And he might not be attracted to you, or he might be married. It might cause an awkward scene.”

Nkosenye’s jaw tightened slightly but all he said was “We can inspect not only the lockers, but also the various hiding places Cadets seem to think they are the first ones to think of. Vents, mattresses, the head, ceiling tiles…” and then a thought occurred to him. “Captain, what if the Admiral knows there is something amiss, but can’t point it out himself for some reason? That would put us in a difficult position if we do happen upon anything… especially any illicit materials. If the contraband is more serious than what you describe, we will be looking at taking part in a full-scale investigation. Fed Sec could be involved, Captain.”

“If it is more serious, then we hand over the investigation to Fed Sec,” replied Glen. “As for the Commandant… that hadn’t crossed my mind. You think he knows exactly whatever the problem is, but he is being blackmailed by someone not to reveal it? He can’t say anything about it himself, so he asks me to to investigate so that, when found, it doesn’t appear to have come from him? It is a little far-fetched, but it would explain his strange behaviour. And what hold could they possibly have on him that could be used for blackmail? As far as I am aware, he is decorated with and has an unblemished record.”

“And Miriam,” Glen said, “Don’t worry about engaging the Instructor just yet. I can see that Mthunzi isn’t keen on the idea either, and if we find contraband in the lockers or hidden away, then we will have a reason to question the Cadets without their Instructor. We’ll also have a reason to question him or her too. Then we can play good cop, bad cop and you can be the nice one.”

‘’Aye Captain’‘ Cross responded while biting the inside of her cheek ‘’What I had in mind was inquiring about doctor Marthese ,see she used to work as a doctor at the Academy and probably everyone know her....so I have a reason without raising any red flags and..and perhaps Depp the security who was also stationed here’‘ the CoS had not yet been transferred to the USS Merrimack but Glen would definitely remember ‘’The crew did not trust the doctor but it was Depp who was collaborating with the Harvesters,Ancient or Elders’‘.

The CMO wondered if it was too far fetched and quite honestly she did wish Glen would tell her so.
