No Time chapter 6 page 1 by ric gustafson
Bryson and Jessica walked up to a man who was wearing white coveralls and a large straw hat. " Good afternoon Professor Raupp".
" Well Jessica, good afternoon to you too" the middleaged man said as he took off his hat and mopped the sweat off of his brow. " Who is your friend?".
" This is Bryson and he's helping me make deliveries today". She handed the Professor a small wrapped package. " Here is your fixed watch from Father Time".
" Thank you" was his reply as he began writing something in a small blue spiral notebook.
Bryson stared. " Professor, why are you staring at these trees so intently?".
" Well Bryson my boy, I'm beginning to study a seventeen year mystery involving time and insects".
" Insects?".
" A specific kind of cicadas".
Bryson smiled. " I hear cicadas every summer".
" This is a different kind of cicada".
" Professor, what's it's name?".
" These are called magicicadas".
