...up, the gate swung noiselessly open. A square mile of flat, green grass was behind the wall. The road went straight through the middle of this field, with identical cedar trees lining it. Small roads branched off from the driveway to points of interest in the woods surrounding the field. At the very center of the field stood the mansion. Five stories high with shiny windows, gleaming paint and a roof of solar panels.
“It’s been said that this house runs itself,” Mac said.
“I believe it,” Kyle replied, “look at all those solar panels! And I noticed off to the right was a garden.”
“There are four acres of garden,” Mac said, “Derek told me last time I was here.”
“Do you know Derek well?”
“Well, I saved his life once and after that he seemed to feel indebted to me.”
Kyle was surprised, but didn’t show it. This Mac was more then just a tramp after all.
“Hello there Mac!” Mr. Justice said, coming out of the magnificent front door in person, “You haven’t changed a bit. Come on business?”
“Yeah. This is my detective, Kyle Fergus of the NDA. Kyle, meet Derek. We traveled to Mongolia and found the busted skeleton. Here’s the report that came back from the bones.”
“Hmm, interesting. Nothing at all what I expected. I hope you haven’t alerted the media?”
“No, we aren’t that stupid,” Mac grinned. Now I’ve just got to find out what to do next…”
“I’ve got an idea of my own.” Kyle cut in, “you once made a program for the FBI, didn’t you?”
“I made several, actually.”
“I mean the one that could see through disguises. You take a picture of the criminal, catch some one and then take of picture of the suspect. Put both pictures into the program, and it tells you whether it’s the same person or not.”
“Lemme think… Oh yes! I think I remember. Well, what about it?”
“We need to use it. I think I know what to do next.”
