Hot Revenge Box Set 4
Chapter 33
Klempner
A quick trawl of some of the greyer websites I use from time to time quickly produces what I want: contact details for an arms merchant who isn’t too fussy about inspecting, or even asking for, documentation or licences relating to either his merchandise or his clientele. Online, it seems ideal, but when I arrive at the address, I’m unimpressed.
I could be in the set of some clichéd hack movie. The side alley is dark and damp. The building is of the would-fall-down-but-is-held-up-by-the-dry-rot variety. It’s even better as I enter.
The proprietor has, apart from a serious case of halitosis, a gold tooth. Why I have no idea. It glints from among a sundry dental collection in black, brown and yellow. Apart of course from the three which are missing altogether from the front. Maybe he lost them in a fight. Or perhaps they ran for cover from their horrible housing.
Having wandered into the area wearing my don’t-mind-me-I’m-a-tourist uniform, I’m beginning to regret the cream linen suit. Stained jeans and a dark tee-shirt would have been more appropriate.
Or perhaps a wetsuit.
I move carefully, preferring not to brush against the walls or furniture, and wishing it were as easy to close the nostrils as the mouth.
Toothy snaps fingers at me. “Sua permissão para comprar.”
I allow confusion to cross my face. “I’m sorry, do you speak English? I want to buy a gun. You were recommended to me.”
His features display a running battle between Irritation and avarice.

“I talk English small, yes.” He holds out his hands, fingers wriggling in a Gimme gesture. “Your permit for gun?”
Making a show of taking the paperwork from my wallet, I unfold it, stroking out the creases, It’s part of the ‘toolkit’ Dakho routinely runs up for me. I’ve no clue whether it is completely fake or a copy of something he hi-jacked from elsewhere. It could even be the genuine article. But he’s never let me down yet. In any case, it’s good enough to pass Toothy’s cursory examination.
“Okay, you want gun for nice English tourist. To protect, yes?”
“That’s right.” I award him a small smile. “To protect myself.”
Toothy sniffs with a sound like bad plumbing, then heads for a door, jerking his thumb at me to follow.
