《A Beautiful Woman of Science and Other Absurdities》Chapter 49

Advertisement

Case Carswell, founder and leader of the secret society he named “The Order of One Justice,” sat in his “office” hidden somewhere beyond the borders of the UEN with his armed bodyguard never far from him. Case’s office was not really an office in the typical sense of the word with four walls, a window and a desk. No, in fact, his “office” looked like a courtroom with a raised bench for the judge, two long tables in front of the bench for the prosecution and defense attorneys, a jury box for twelve jurors and a gallery in the back for the public. It was not difficult to guess, then, that Case thought of himself as the judge, so he wore a black robe and occupied the bench as his “desk”. His bodyguard acted as bailiff and sat off to the side of the bench.

A “court clerk” arrived in Case’s courtroom with a disk in his hand. “Your honor, please have a look at the data that was collected by our hackers. I think you will be highly interested.” The clerk handed the disk over to Case who inserted it into a computer terminal sitting on his desk.

“Thank you,” said Case to the Clerk, “You may be dismissed.”

Case looked at the screen of his terminal while the data on the disk was displayed one page at a time. As he absorbed the data scrolling by, Case saw something that grabbed his attention and he leaned forward to get a closer look. An evil grin crept across his face as he realized the value of the data now in his possession. He slapped his hand on the table with a loud clap on wood.

“This is fantastic! These are all the log files and archives from the UEN’s laboratory Transportal. All the experiments run and data gathered are recorded here. All the secrets of Leandre Renard are here and more! Do you understand what this means, Dillon?”

Case was asking his bailiff, Dillon, who was busy cleaning his finger nails. “What does it mean, your honor?”

“It means the power of teleportation is ours!” gloated Case. “Quickly, we must get this data to our scientists so they reverse engineer these datasets. It’s only a matter of time before we will be able to achieve 99.999999999% teleportation accuracy and challenge the UEN’s monopoly on Transportals which only serve their interests.”

“Is that your final ruling, your honor?” Dillon wanted be sure.

“Yes, it is my final ruling,” confirmed Case.
