Salmela sipped his glögi. “I don’t suppose you guys would mind a little rumor circulating that you’re taking extreme measures to protect witnesses?”
“Should we?”
”No, the balance of terror needs to be maintained, just like in Soviet times.”
“Well, go ahead and spread it then.”
Salmela nodded. “Alright… I hear Korpi’s outfit is teetering on the brink. And that psycho Nyberg doesn’t have what it takes to run it either, especially not from the slammer. People fear him, but they don’t respect him. But what about Guerrilla Siikala. What’s gonna happen to him?”
“Tough to say yet, but we’ll throw the book at him. Gotta maintain that balance of terror. I bet he’ll get accessory to attempted murder for the car bomb, and maybe something else for the drugs. All this publicity has made the case a top priority, so we’ll be going full tilt to the end. Martin will get to see the inside of a prison too, that’s for sure.”
“He was involved, huh?”
“Korpi’s lawyer.”
“Right, I know,” said Salmela. “I hear some of Korpi’s guys have already split away to some gang from Vantaa. They’ll probably take the rest with them, too.”
“Yeah.”
Usually, Suhonen would be interested in hearing about new players in the game, but today he’d talked enough about work, and so he let it be. The vacuum
would fill quickly-when one gang was busted up, another would soon take its place.
The men sat quietly for a minute, sipping their drinks.
“Listen,” said Salmela. “I got this diamond ring that’d be a perfect Christmas present for that lady of yours, Raija. Five hundred and it’s yours. She’d love it!”
Suhonen laughed.
“I’m serious. Tell you what. I’ll throw in a Christmas tree and a ham on the house.”
