Scientific Thief

By R. Richard

Not just one, but several terrorist organizations, around the world have a problem. Large amounts of money are disappearing when bank transfers are attempted. The people who run the organizations are unable to find out where the money goes, even when they try to torture the information out of the people responsible for the money transfers.
Donors, who fund the terror operations, are very unhappy and hint that the donations will stop, unless some results are shown.
A political attache is attempting to use political power to find a solution to the disappearing money, but to no avail.
The problem is becoming critical.
A government operation, in Washington, is attempting to solve what must be a computer problem, under political pressure. However, the efforts fall under the control of politicians and one Jason is ousted from the effort. Jason is Civil Service and can't be fired, but the resolution of Jason's dismissal will take quite a bit of time.
Despite a blacklist situation, Jason manages to get a job, similar to his old government job, only with a government contractor company.
Janice, a lady who has known Jason since school days, has a supper date with Jason. Janice, over the course of the evening tells Jason that she's employed by a government organization that's attempting to find out who could be hacking into bank computer systems and stealing money from terrorist organizations. Her organization can't determine who the hacker might be. However, Janice knows who the hacker must be and that the hacker must be very wealthy by now.
Jason points out that what Janice believes is an interesting scenario. However, it’s just a scenario and there’s no proof or even solid evidence.
Janice then tells Jason that she intends to continue her investigation, in her apartment, tonight.
Jason, as a public spirited citizen, agrees to continue the investigation, even if it takes all night.

I'm the co-author, with Sunset Thomas, of Anatomy of An Adult Film.I have 48 novels and over 299 short stories currently published.I spent my early years in the part of Los Angeles known as the South Central. I was known as Whi' Boy, which was sufficient to identify me in that place. I'm a skilled Kung Fu player, using a system that I learned from a Korean I knew only as 'Pak.' It would be easier to tell you the places that Pak wasn't wanted by the police, rather than the places where he was wanted by the police. Pak's Kung Fu system, augmented by some bits and pieces from some Chinese practitioners is quick and effective, or I wouldn't be alive today.My early education was mostly obtained by stealing books from the public library (I always returned them and the Librarian even began to provide me with reading lists.) I did go to high schools, but I never really learned anything there. I eventually graduated from the University of California at Los Angeles, UCLA, with a degree in mathematics.I work as a Systems Analyst and also make a part of my living as a professional gambler (legal in Nevada.) I write science fiction and erotica. My published novels are:Anatomy of An Adult Film (With Sunset Thomas)1. Second Chance: God Killer2. Second Chance: Sky Pirate3. Second Chance: Scroll Seeker4.

Ahmed squirms and pleads to Achmet, I did not steal the money, you must believe me!

Achmet continues to regard the man in front of him, with the eye of a hawk about to strike. Achmet then speaks slowly and threateningly, Ahmed, you were entrusted with the sum of $1.3 million United States dollars. You were to transfer the money from a bank account in Bahrain to a bank account in Belgium that’s willing to serve as a conduit for the money, for the usual extortionate fee of course. The money was then to have been transferred to a bank account in Syria to fund certain of our jihad efforts there. The bank in Belgium claims the money never arrived there. We have an operative inside the bank in Belgium. She confirms that the money never arrived at the bank in Belgium. The money left the bank in Bahrain and never arrived in the bank in Belgium. Then tell me, Ahmed, if you did not steal the money, what happened to the rather large sum of money under discussion?

Ahmed squirms again. Achmet, you must believe me. I ordered the money transferred from Bahrain to Belgium. The bank in Bahrain can verify this.

Achmet explodes, "Ahmed you are a lying fool! The bank in Bahrain tells us that the money was ordered transferred to a bank account in the Bahamas, by your computer order. The bank in the Bahamas is not in
