Nothing wrong with hired killers, they are merely gentlemen performing a required service. If people are to be killed surely it is better done by professionals who will be quick rather than amateurs who may not be?
If there is a problem with any of this it would be with a society where people are killed so often there can be professionals and, of course, with those who order such killings. Not to mention the fact that those who are killed have, almost by definition, done or said something bad enough to 'deserve' being killed (in at least one person's eyes anyway). Frankly I would argue the most blameless people, and it is relatively blameless not absolute, are probably the hired killers themselves.

Indeed. An individual may be comparatively blameless but the larger unity is of general nastiness. The quote is of the crystallising point of the matter.

Looking pretty grim for the secretary, luckily for Marlborough, its hard to find people in a city gripped by disorder..
As a religious man I entirely endorse this point of viewJ. Passepartout said:
More deeply, the flaws of betrayal start to become clear in this passage. The secretary herself is steeped in treachery, and is therefore not one who can be trusted by the killers, even if she is sleeping with Gomez. And the killers, they know what awaits them if they fail, doubtless having executed the same sentences upon former colleagues who fell short of the mark themselves.
Desperate times, for men and woman.
Shall the secretary die? Shall our heroes escape? Wil they be betrayed? All answered in the next exciting update!!!!!
I heartily applaud the return of the secretary and hope she emerges unscathed.
However, I am very disappointed to see that we've gone over a month without an update.
Give us an update!
