the plazas with a small kitchen in the back. The large windows to the north of Bill allow sunshine in and a great view of the pier.
    “You know, Bill, I think you should have been a politician with the way you deal with people.”
    “The thought has crossed my mind; you could say some form of government office is in my long- term plans.”
    “How do you do it Bill? It has taken you a much shorter amount of time than it did me, or anyone, to build up so much power and respect in the organization.
    In some cultures, you have what are called big men, village leaders who can sway fellow villagers through a process of gift giving and obligation. Anthropologists call these leaders big men. A big man develops a personal following of people who are obligated to him. Do you remember that underage white girl? The lieutenant that got pregnant who didn't want to get an abortion. She even threatened to tell his wife and report him to the office of professional standards. I seem to recall some rumor about a situation like that Bill. I got Red to have a few guys kick that bitch in the stomach a few thousand times until she lost the baby. When she tried to cause problems again, Red made sure that she was raped, and killed. Of course, the case is still open with no real leads, and Katie is just a distant memory to the world now. The lieutenant has been my best friend for a bit now, but it goes further than that. Any time an officer is killed; my officers come up with thousands for the family, and let us not forget all the barbecues and parties thrown by yours truly. So you do favors and help people get laid at parties,” she says laughing mockingly with a big grin.
    Bill loved her smile on that sweet- looking round Asian face. You would not think she was so cut throat and conniving from looking at her. What the hell's going on over there? “One minute Etsuko; it seems we got a bit of trouble outside.”
    Two white males are smacking around some white, young redhead as a crowd of people gather around watching. “See, Etsuko, this is a perfect chance to demonstrate my big man theory. Also, it's good publicity for the police department and us as well.”
    Bill and Etsuko step outside to take care of the issue. “All right gentleman, Chicago Police; here's my badge, now get off the girl and put your hands up against the vehicle here.”
    Bill holds the sobbing young girl to his chest and comforts her as he reads them their rights. This is perfect, a news truck is here filming him as the conquering hero and a positive headline for the police department. Bill is excellent at mugging for the cameras and playing the crowd.
    “Here is the patrol car to pick up these thugs, Bill.”
    “Hey Bill, they ran the girls ID, and you'll never guess whose daughter she is, seems the mayor has a little wild child on his hands.”
    “You don't say, this is the perfect opportunity to get in even better with the mayor. I doubt he wants it getting out that his daughter is hanging out with white trash, getting high and boozing it up. She looks as high as a kite.”
    When Bill had comforted her, she was hardly coherent and smelled like a brewery. He had seen the type before, spoiled little rich girl who wanted to walk on the wild side. This type did not want a nice clean-cut guy with a few college degrees and a future ahead of him. No, some punk-ass bad boy with a GED and that give them hell attitude is what she wanted. Most people could not get the mayor, but Bill had a unique password that the mayor's people knew the mayor was to be contacted immediately. Bill was one of maybe 20 people who had this password. A rare honor that if misused would lead to very swift repercussions for those it was entrusted to.
    After talking to the mayor, Bill received his orders in code words of course. They often spoke in code when discussing the drugs, prostitutes or people the mayor wanted to go away without a trace. You think the mayor’s aid had actually committed
