This comprehensive control is daunting.
"So Fadil will contact Song Heping and express interest in sensitive equipment?" Lemont asked.
"He's already made contact." Robbin checked his watch: "In fact, in an hour, Fadil will meet in Dubai with a department head from the 'Musician' defense, responsible for their company's arms smuggling operations, Nura. The discussion is 'exploring the possibility of joint security operations in Northern Illigo,' but the real topic is the batch of Javelin and Stinger systems."
Lemont looked at Robbin in shock.
All of this was happening without his knowledge; Robbin had been operating on multiple fronts.
"Don't worry," Robbin seemed to read his mind: "This is just initial contact, not an immediate transaction. We need Song Heping to believe there's a safe, high-profit alternative that can handle those sensitive pieces of equipment. This will make him less eager to go through official channels, giving us more time to prepare."
