Sergeant Coccozello looked at him, awaiting orders. "We can't commit our reserves in that Chinaware Department fight; we need them up here. Where are they, now, and how many?" "Thirteen, counting myself and the man in there." He nodded toward the room where Chester Pelton lay in drugged sleep. "In the squad room, on the floor below." "And for the mob below to get up here?"
Coccozello says Latterman is using a rifle against the raiders, killing every one he can get a shot at." Cardon nodded. Probably vindictive about being involved in action injurious to Pelton's commercial interests; just another odd quirk of Literate ethics. "We'd better get him up here," he said. "You and I have got to leave, at once; we have to get Pelton and Claire to safety.
Where's Russ Latterman, by the way?" Prestonby gave a sidewise glance toward Claire and shook his head, his lips pressed tightly together. She doesn't know, yet, Cardon interpreted. "Down in the basement, with Coccozello," Prestonby said, aloud. "We're in telephone communication with Coccozello, and have a freight elevator running between here and the basement.
"Well, so far, we've just been talking defense. We need to take the offensive, ourselves." He glanced around. "Is there a freight elevator from this block to the basement?" "Yeah. Wait till I see." Coccozello went to the TV-screen and dialed. "Yeah, and the elevator's up here, too," he said.
Or maybe they only wanted to expose Claire's literacy. It's hard to say what else they'd try maybe kidnap her, to truth-drug her and use her as a guest-artist on a Conservative telecast. I'm going over to the store, now." "That's a good idea, Ralph. If you hadn't thought of it, I was going to suggest it. Land on the central stage, ask for Sergeant Coccozello of the store police, and give my name.
"Well, come out here, sergeant, and have a look around the store on the TV. We have troubles." Coccozello could hear the noise that was still coming out of the darkened screen. As he stepped forward, Claire got another pickup, some distance from the one that had been knocked out.
