Security man didn't answer but nodded only and soon first samples dissapeared in a dark corridor, with guard's steps becoming more and more silent.

- The *cough* producers of those diamonds, did they tell you where exactly they got them from? I'm interested in exact coordinates, Mr. Masters. That could help my studies a lot...and not only them.
