midnight
Except for old Dworken , Kotha 's bar was deserted when I dropped in shortly after midnight . The ship from Earth was still two days away , and the Martian flagship would get in next morning , with seven hundred passengers for Earth on it . Dworken must have been waiting in Luna City a whole week -- at six thousand credits a day . That 's as steep to me as it is to you , but money never seemed to worry Dworken .
