The toast is met with a nod of Ellis' head, attention split between Cassius and the work of his hands over his plate.

It's reassuring to hear Cassius say what Ellis had been thinking, for the joke to give way to the task at hand. But it does leave them without anything to show for a day's work.

"We might have picked a bad day for this," Ellis says carefully. "But it's just as likely that there is nothing to find. He couldn't have put off a meeting today without one of us having noticed."

It would have looked strange. But so far, there'd been no sign of even a small hiccup in Boral's routine, which doesn't bode so well for their hopes of unearthing collusion.
