'How did you know I was here?'
Artemis steepled his fingers. 'There were several clues. One, Butler did not conduct his usual bomb check under the car,http://www.rolexsubmarinerreplicausa.com/. Two, he returned without the items he went to fetch. Three, the door was left open for several seconds, something no good security man would permit. And four, I detected a slight haze as you entered the vehicle. Elementary really.'
Holly scowled. 'Observant little Mud Boy, aren't you?'
'I try. Now, Captain Short, if you would be so kind as to tell me why you are here.'
'As if you don't know.'
Artemis thought for a moment. 'Interesting. I would guess that something has happened. Obviously something that I am being held responsible for.' He raised an eyebrow fractionally. An intense expression of emotion for Artemis Fowl. 'There are humans trading with the People.'
'Very impressive,' said Holly. 'Or it would be if we didn't both know that you're behind it. And if we can't get the truth out of you, I'm sure your computer files will prove most revealing.'
Artemis closed the laptop's lid. 'Captain. I realize there is no love lost between us, but I don't have time for this now. It is imperative that you give me a few days to sort out my affairs.'
'No can do, Fowl. There are a few people below ground who would like a word.'
Artemis shrugged. 'I suppose after what I did, I can't really expect any consideration.'
'That's right. You can't.'
'Well then,' sighed Artemis. 'I don't suppose I have a choice.'
Holly smiled. 'That's right, Fowl,http://www.nikehighheels.biz/, you don't.'
'Shall we go?' Artemis's tone was meek, but his brain was sparking off ideas. Maybe co-operating with the fairies wasn't such a bad idea. They had certain abilities after all.
'Why not?' Holly turned to Butler. 'Drive south. Stay on the back roads.'
'Tara, I presume. I often wondered where exactly the entrance to El was.'
'Keep wondering, Mud Boy,' muttered Holly. 'Now,http://www.rolexsubmarinerreplica.info/, sleep. All this deduction is wearing me out,replica chanel bags.'
