Chapter 38

It hadn't been an easy trip home, but she'd finally made it. She had a new appreciation for her passport and clean travel records. Her least favourite part had been bribing a dirty transport official into letting her cross the border between Russia and China in a smelly chicken truck.

Getting into Japan, though, had been the hardest part. Crime was extremely low and finding a dirty cop or official nearly impossible. She'd had to rely on an old retired assassin friend to hide her on a fishing boat and sneak her through customs. The Master had sent a car for her once she was on Japanese soil, so at least she had been able to travel in luxury to the compound outside of Osaka.
