e i say to you: either i have that report in my hands within the hour, or i quit. i’ll take the evening train ba. where is the report?”
the two meher for several seds. then frode sighed and looked away.
“in my offie.”
frode had put up a terrible fuss. it was not until 6:00 that evening that blomkvist had lisbeth sala in his hand. it was almost eighty pages long, plus dozens of photocopied articles, certifid other records of the details of his life and career.
it erie himself in art biography and part intellige. he was ingly asto how detailed the report was. salander had dug up facts that he thought had been lohe post of history. she had dug up his youthful relationship ho had been a flaming syndid a politi. who in the world had she talked to? she had found his rod bootstrap, which surely oday would remember. she had sised his fio the last ?re. how the hell had she do?
as a journalist, blomkvist had speing down information about people, and he could judge the quality of the work from a purely professional standpoint. there was no doubt that this salander was one hell of aor. he doubted that even he could have produparable report on any individual pletely unknown to him.
it also dawned on him that there had never been any reason for him ao keep their distanger’s presence; he already kheir long-staio came up with a disturbingly precise appraisal of millennium’s financial position; va how shaky things were whe tacted berger. what same laying?
the wer?m affair was merely summarised, but whoever wrote the report had obviously bee part of the trial. the report questioned blomkvist’s refusal to ent duririal. smart woman.
the seikael straightened up, hardly able to believe his eyes. salander had assage giving her assessment of what erial. she had reproduced virtually word for word the press release that he and berger had submitted after he resigned as publisher of millennium.

blomkvist put down sala. he put on his jad went out i, which was very bright one week before midsummer. he walked along the shore of the sound, past ceger’s property and the luxurious motorboat beler’s villa. he walked slowly, p as he went. fi on a rod looked at the flashing buoy lights iad bay. there was only one .
“you’ve been in my puter, fr?ken salander,” he said aloud. “you’re a fug hacker.”
