Visited by 007 Travelers: 2012

"- Hello, he believed that caller was Easy, so he prepared to say his code sentence.

- James?

- Yes? Strangely alarming because Easy was supposed to ask Jim Goldfarb.

- What's wrong?

She was supposed to say at least the word "specific" if something was wrong. Instead she said: Just come here right away. This is important.

Her voice sounded steady and Bond didn't recognize any fear in it. He left the suite and touched his ASP like it was a good-luck charm and he went along the corridor at the door of room 202 and knocked it"

Visited by 007 Travelers: 2012

"The ugly six-storey building at the corner of Kochstrasse and the Wilhelmstrasse was the only one standing in a waste of empty bombed space. Bond paid off his taxi and got a brief impression of waist-high weeds and half-tidied rubble walls stretching away to a big deserted crossroads lit by a central cluster yellowish arc lamps, before he pushed the bell for the fourth floor and at once heard the click of the door opener."
