“Yes, I can”

“I’m tired of this,” Juan said “Where’s Overholt?”

“As promised, he’s under the water not far from you I just texted you the coordinates and a link to a live feed”

Juan entered the coordinates into his phone’sbell was a mile away from the Portland He had to assume the location was correct He believed Tate couldn’t bear the thought of having to cheat to beat his nemesis

Then Juan clicked on the link It brought up a video feed showing Overholt sitting in a tiny diving bell, sipping froood health In the corner of the screen was an air pressure gauge Given how much was left in the tanks, Juan estimated Overholt had less than thirty minutes before it ran out

“This ht be prerecorded,” Juan said “How do I know he’s still alive?”

“Tellyou’d like to see him do,” Tate said

Juan thought for a second and said, “Have hinal he uses when he finishes a race”

“I get it,” Tate said “You want hi”

There was a short pause before Juan saw Overholt look at the can whenever he completed a 10K

“Happy?” Tate asked

“No,” Juan answered “But I believe he’s alive”

“For now Better get going I’ll see you soon”

As soon as Tate was off the line, Juan called Tiny Gunderson

“I’ve got the location Are you ready to go?”
