Twenty
yards
away
he
could
dimly
see
through
the
smoke
the
space-suited
figure
of
one
of
the
cops
.
He
was
lying
in
a
crumpled
heap
on
the
ground
.
Twenty
yards
in
the
other
direction
lay
the
second
man
.
No
one
else
was
anywhere
to
be
seen
.
This
struck
Ford
as
being
extremely
odd
.
Slowly
,
nervously
,
he
walked
towards
the
first
one
.
The
body
lay
reassuringly
still
as
he
approached
it
,
and
continued
to
lie
reassuringly
still
as
he
reached
it
and
put
his
foot
down
on
the
Kill-O-Zap
gun
that
still
dangled
from
its
limp
fingers
.

He
reached
down
and
picked
it
up
,
meeting
no
resistance
.
The
cop
was
quite
clearly
dead
A
quick
examination
revealed
him
to
be
from
Blagulon
Kappa
--
he
was
a
methane-breathing
life
form
,
dependent
on
his
space
suit
for
survival
in
the
thin
oxygen
atmosphere
of
Magrathea
.
The
tiny
life-support
system
computer
on
his
backpack
appeared
unexpectedly
to
have
blown
up
.

Ford
poked
around
in
it
in
considerable
astonishment
.
These
miniature
suit
computers
usually
had
the
full
back-up
of
the
main
computer
back
on
the
ship
,
with
which
they
were
directly
linked
through
the
sub-etha
.
Such
a
system
was
fail-safe
in
all
circumstances
other
than
total
feedback
malfunction
,
which
was
unheard
of
.
He
hurried
over
to
the
other
prone
figure
,
and
discovered
that
exactly
the
same
impossible
thing
had
happened
to
him
,
presumably
simultaneously
.
He
called
the
others
over
to
look
.
They
came
,
shared
his
astonishment
,
but
not
his
curiosity
.
