Reynard Johansson, the CEO of Textron, Inc., did not like mysteries. He tapped his chin at the report that was on the screen.
Derrick Larsson was a genius, at least according to his school records. He had worked a few odd jobs in tech, nothing spectacular, mostly R&D. But then he slipped off the radar a few months ago and started picking up odd things. He picked up a decommissioned cowboy bot from Snake Gulch. A young man was seen recently in his company.
Reynard did his own digging not in the report and found that the young man embezzled money from many different accounts. Not enough to be noticed, and not often enough to send up flags, but enough to make him rich. Reynard was impressed. He had used magic and technology seamlessly to do this.
He could use such a man on his team.
He wondered why the young man wanted to see him. He closed the internal report and pondered.
God, he hated mysteries.
