“Who are they?” he questioned. “You have your men. Vacchi and Varona meet tonight.
“Remember how Ricardo went out? While friends were calling to see him? How about Vacchi and Varona? Are you not a friend of theirs? It will be easy for you, tonight.”
“That part is all right,” replied Nails Pietro uneasily, “but that doesn’t include Nick Savoli. What about him? Where will I be?”
THE mention of Nick Savoli’s name caused Joe le Blanc to listen more intently. So far, he had been unable to follow the thread of the talk. Now the words that followed were direct, and he began to understand.
“Savoli?” questioned Anelmo. “Leave that to us. Genara and I will see him tonight. That will be the end of Nick Savoli. There will be two big shots after this. Genara will be one. Anelmo will be the other.”
Genara nodded emphatically.
“But Borrango?” questioned Pietro.
“Who is Borrango?” asked Anelmo. “He does what he is told to do — by Savoli. Where will he be without Savoli? He will work for the next big shot, that is all.
