"Better get back," said Tom. He flipped the audiophone switch in the jet boat and spoke into a small mike. "Jet boat one to Polaris. Jet boat one to Polaris. Cadet Corbett to Major Connel." There was a crackle of static and then Connel's voice, vibrant and clear, filled the small cabin. "Corbett!" he roared. "By the craters of Luna, I couldn't contact you. Return to the Polaris on the double!"
But those fat soles were cleverly fashioned to hide a long, keen knife-blade, like a dirk. I could lift a foot and get the knife out of its hidden compartment with fair speed. This I had in one shoe. In the other, was the small mechanism of a radio safety recorder and image finder, with its attendant individual audiophone transmitter and receiver. A miracle of smallness, these tiny contrivances.
Connel, with Tom piloting the jet boat, finished setting up their units at points one, two, and three and headed back to the Polaris. "How much time, sir?" asked Tom as he slowed the small craft for a landing. "Less than a half hour, Corbett," said Connel nervously. "I'd better check on Shinny and Alfie." He called into the audiophone. "Major Connel to Shinny and Higgins, come in Shinny Higgins!"
