Taking the elevator down to the lobby, Xia Fan met with the driver-bodyguard Tony had come with, a dark-skinned burly man over two meters tall who went by the name of Joe.
In truth, Xia Fan and Traveling Buddha didn't need a bodyguard. But they didn't want to reveal their identities, and businessmen normally hired a few bodyguards when they arrived at the Outer Frontier. Xia Fan was simply following the trend.
Joe had a very shabby hovercar, also made up from spare parts that the Inner Territories had thrown out. Every year, the Inner Territories produced large amounts of trash that would be sold off to the Outer Frontier at a low price through traveling salesmen.
