The Chronocide Mission

Page 35

by Lloyd Biggle, Jr.


  When they arrived, he walked several blocks and took another cab.

  Eventually he reached the bus station, and an hour later he was on a bus headed south. His fright had changed to panic. It was the money that worried him. Perhaps he should have left that strange money belt in the motel room where he regained consciousness.

  “Where in God’s name did it come from?” he asked himself over and over. “And where the hell have I been?”

  The last thing he remembered was taking a walk on a lovely spring day and dozing off in a park near the campus. And that, according to the calendar in the station, was more than a year before. He had to get back to Mt. Harwell College, and finish his course work, and get his degree. Then—assuming there was no new slump in the auto business—he had to find a job.

  But where could he have been all that time, and what had he been doing? And where did he get the money?

  There was absolutely no way he could have come by that amount of cash honestly. He must have robbed a bank.
