Andrei ensures that no one is watching them, then starts pushing out larger holes in the glass so the bullet holes look more like thrown rocks.
"Watch yourself, Ellie."
He pauses for a minute, again looking around, then removes his jacket and lays it across her lap.
"So you don't get cut."
He says nothing for a moment, pushing and picking at the glass.
"So this fellow at the Foundation, this place that co-sponsored the Carlyle Expedition... they're shipping things to Shanghai. Fine."
He quickly gets out of the car and pushes at the holes from the outside, so they dent inwards. Then he brushes off his seat, slides back in, and gets the car moving back towards the hotel as quickly as possible.
"What is this Foundation supposed to do, anyways? Do they have a reason to ship things to Shanghai?"

"Do you suppose we should find some bricks, the ones that the hooligans threw at us?" Elizabeth asks. After a second of thought, she answers her own question, "No, I suppose that if they ask, we could always just claim to have tossed them out the window. Oh!" She opens her purse and pulls out her intricately decorated flask. She takes a sip, which does seem to calm her nerves a little.
"Well, they were established to sponsor expeditions to various parts of the world. Their collection includes an impressive number of artifacts that these trips have returned. It seems unlikely that they would send an expedition to Shanghai, although they could claim that they were sending supplies for an expedition through there?""What is this Foundation supposed to do, anyways?
