Why the hell not get him the names? What harm can it do?
"I can get them as soon as they get off the Gulfstream."
"When will that be?"
"Eleven-thirty, give or take. I told another of your former associates to meet the plane and find them someplace to sleep."
"What's his name?"
"Yung. He's stationed in Montevideo-"
"Chinese? Feisty little bastard? Round face, five-eight, one-fifty?"
"Yeah. You know him?"
"Very well. What did he tell you he's doing in Montevideo?"
"He didn't tell me he's doing anything. I have the impression he's just one more of your former associates looking into money laundering. The ambassador asked the ambassador in Montevideo if any of them had kidnapping experience, and he sent Yung and another guy here."
"His name?"
"I don't have it handy. But I can get it."
"Where are they landing? Here?"
"Jorge Newbery. There's a transport on the way that should land at Ezeiza at about the same time."
"I just saw an Air Force colonel in full uniform surrounded by Argentine Air Force brass; I wondered what he was up to."
"I'm going to get the family-and the body-out of here just as soon as I can."
"What were you planning to chat about, Charley, while we were listening to the jazz quartet?"
"I thought I might idly inquire if you had ever heard of a fellow named Jean-Paul Lorimer."
Kennedy replied by spelling Lorimer in the phonetic alphabet.
"Correct."
"Never heard of him, but if you get me those names, I'll be happy to ask around."
"Deal. How do I get them to you?"
"On the phone. How else?"
"I thought you were about to leave."
"I'll leave after I have those names."
"Done."
"Here's a freebie, Charley. Whatever David William Yung, Jr., is doing in Montevideo, it almost certainly has very little to do with examining bank statements."
"You mean he's looking for you?"
"That, too, of course. But that's not what I meant. He's a real hotshot; they don't waste people like David looking for dirty money."
"You sound as if you know him well."
