Manhunter Revelations
was important enough for me to do so. And please just call
me Conrad"
    "Well Conrad, I am a very good judge of men
and your interruption of my family gathering as you call it, I
would wager was fully planned. Having information as to Mr.
Slobla-Han being your ace in the hole to insure meeting me. The
only thing left now is, for your health, that the information you
have was worth your gamble. So tell me, what information do you
have of Mr. Slobla-Han"
    "None"
    The statement I made was short and to the
point. Yet it carried the message of a veiled threat in the way I
stated it. It had the effect of causing both Lenevos and Kilgore
along with the four goons who had accompanied us to the back of the
house to hesitate.
    "Let me understand you fully" stated
Lenevos.
    "You bluffed your way into my presence, sit
at my table in my home, under the pretense of having valuable
information for me on Mr. Slobla-Han, and now you state that you
have no such information on Slobla-Han. Is that correct?"
    "Yes"
    "Why"
    Kilgore and his goons closed in around me,
and they were prepped for imminent violence against my person, and
looked barely able to contain their excitement at the prospect.
    "I apologize for the deception, but I do have
important information for you, and felt it was better if I
delivered it in person"
    "Please do so"
    "Mr. Lenevos, my name is Conrad Hutchins and
I am a Manhunter. I tell you this freely because I know once I
leave here you will have full information on me soon enough. You
are wanted back in Canada by a certain agency for crime or crimes
committed against them. I was contracted to bring you to them. Due
to such I felt it was necessary to give you the chance to surrender
peacefully, thus by not giving me the unpleasant duty of taking you
down violently. Looking at your size, I now know that such an
action would require me to commit extensive violence upon your
person resulting in extensive physical damage to your body"
    Lenevos, Kilgore and his men all looked at me
as if I had suddenly became a
    multi-headed, green and purple skinned alien
in front of them. My statement was the absolute last thing they
expected me to say, which was exactly the reaction I wanted. I will
however give Lenevos credit. He had a great sense of humor. He
burst out laughing uproariously.
    "Mr. Conrad, you are without a doubt the
stupidest man in existence to come here and tell me that. Any other
man, either foolish, brave or whatever would have more sense then
to come here, especially in my own home and threaten me.
Fortunately for you I can end your misery. Kilgore"
    Before Kilgore and his goons could grab
me,
    "Kilgore wait. I wouldn't do whatever it is
you are planning"
    "Why not?" asked Kilgore.
    I slowly turned over my left hand. Barely
showing on my palm was a very small push switch attached to an
almost invisible wire, which ran to the watch on my wrist.
    "The watch on my wrist is a powerful burst
transmitter, which can be activated with the least amount of
pressure on the switch on my palm. Activation of the transmitter
will cause the multiple explosive charges, which I had the presence
of mind to plant all around your estate wall prior to coming here,
to explode with some very impressive and nasty results. My
investigations of you Mr. Lenevos revealed your extensive love for
your seven children, whom I am assuming is here. I figured you
would not want anything to happen to them so I took this precaution
not to convince you to leave with me now, but to insure I can leave
safely after giving you my message. Now that I have given it to
you, I will be leaving. I only hope you do take me up on my offer
of a peaceful surrender"
    "Boss, I think he's bluffing" said one of the
goons. "Our security and surveillance would have spotted him
planting any explosives”
    "Your security methods was also designed to
keep your boss here location secret. Not only was I able to crack
that and locate him, but for one full week I was infiltrating
