But why shouldn't he check up on that in the libary. He turned in the direction of the Big Town Library, when suddenly he had a look at his watch. They're closed, of course, it's almost 10 p.m. Jimmy shook his head. This whole spy thing confused him. But then he had an idea.
It had all started with his computer, anyway. So why don't have a look at the big internet databases? He could probably get all the information he needed so much there.
He rushed home. Without even taking off his coat, he went to his computer and switched it on. Why not google it?! He decided to google "spying". And there it was 3.500 hits. And he knew the first one. Wasn't that...? No, this couldn't be true...
He had to take off his coat. Drops of sweat gathered on his forehead. His hands went wetter and wetter every second. He still couldn't believe it. He erased the "spying", just to type it back, to see if he gets the same result again.
Of course he did. Maybe they bought this position, he had heard of thechniques like this. Or maybe it was just showing up like that for him - no, that was pure paranoia.
He stared at the hits. Especially the first one. Should he...? No, he couldn't move the cursor. Was not able to... His hands were wet and he trembled with fear. But he had to open that homepage. What would it say? He slowly moved to cursor...
He was afraid, but on the other hand, what could a homepage do to him? he moved the mouse slowly towards the link..just a short double click and it was done. he felt the tension grow. what would he see?
he was on a list in the internet? but how? "stupid question!" he said to himself: "THEY know everything and can do everything!" his fear and tauntness was overwelming.
Then another thought struck him...wasn't this stupid? Everyone could read his name, and probably his instructions, too. What kind of a secret society was this? The Losers Anonymous? He decided to try out what happened when someone tried to check out someone elses information, and clicked on the name beneath his, Shalima Merino. (Sorry, long one)
(no prob *g*) at first nothing happend. he just began to think, that only the person with this name is able to open the link, however they control that, when suddenly a window opened up. it said: "you are not allowed to check on this name. the trust we have in you is fading jimmy. we watch you until we think you earned our trust again. and don't ever try to do this again!"
Jimmy looked around in terror. Was there anybody in the room? His heart was beating faster and louder than ever. How could they know that it was him who wanted to see another one's mission? Did they have spies in his house? Or were they computer cracks? He didn't want to look at the homepage again. He went to the sofa, to think about what he had just seen.
his instinctive reaction had been to throw the computer out of the window, to get rid of all that stuff. but his reason won. it wasn't that simple. the sofa was a good place to think about what to do next. but what was next? he felt watched by every move that he made, but there was no place on earth, where they couldn't find him. so he decided not to run away. but how did they know?
They watched him...maybe there were cameras hidden in his flat! The mere thought send chills up and down his spine. He'd have to check every inch of this room...maybe they watched him this very second.
he was getting more nervous every second. Jimmy was already about to start, to check for cameras in his appartment, to get rid off them, to be free again, when he realized something. 'If there were cameras, they'd know I'm looking for them, as soon as I check underneath the first picture on the wall'
