Chapter 8
“Jason, answer my question,” Michael Baron said.
“I don’t understand why you've spent the past four hours asking me questions. You’re the one at fault here. Why didn't you protect him? Toshiro came to you for protection!”
Jason glared at the older man, tired of this senseless roundabout discussion. Twenty-five hours ago, he’d happily let Toshiro go to the grocery store, gods, maybe this was his fault.
If he’d just—
He scowled, just what?
He couldn't even fight against the men who’d taken him to the dock.
Shit!
Jason rubbed his eyes and leaned on the table in the small dreary room. Michael Baron had no idea where they’d taken Toshiro. He’d hoped the man had a clue. At least then, there was hope of getting Toshiro before those bastards shipped him out of the country.
Stupid FBI Agent Michael Baron didn't know where they’d have stashed Toshiro.
Baron had asked him to leave Penn Yan as if he was going on a short trip. Barely able to curb his anxiety, he’d locked up the Watson house and driven into town. He’d given Sean a silly story about dropping Toshiro off at the airport. Sean had stared at him with a frown, but Jason hadn't cared.
Jason drove out of Penn Yan as fast as he could. The agent had urged him to drive to New York City, check into a hotel and wait for him. His imagination had gone into overdrive through the whole ride into Manhattan. Just thinking about Toshiro dead had him shaking like a leaf. He’d spent the night in a hotel, barely able to close his eyes. When he finally met Agent Baron, he’d felt hope that the man was going to take him straight to Toshiro. His hopes disappeared the moment Agent Baron picked him up and brought him into the small tiny room in this warehouse.
When Jason asked why they weren't at the police station, Baron had said they were too many curious people. The two men working with Agent Baron brought him coffee and then this endless interrogation had started.
Jason worried.
Worried because they were asking him if Toshiro had another apartment in the city, which meant they had no clue where to find Toshiro.
“What are we doing?”
Jason stared at Michael with bleary eyes.
“We’re wasting time here. Shouldn't you have people on the streets, looking for any clue?”
Michael chuckled.
“I wish I lived in your shiny world. What kind of budget do you think we’re running on?”
“You’re FBI.”
“Yeah, and Toshiro is really a criminal in the first place.” Michael leaned on the table and folded his arms against his chest. “You and Toshiro spent one month and two weeks together. Let’s go over everything he told you.”
“You’re treating me like a suspect. Do you think I’d hurt Toshiro?”
“Cooperate, Jason.”
Jason glared at Michael but it didn't seem to have an impact. The bastard leaned on the table looking relaxed and untouched. His tie still in place, as though they hadn't spent hours in this stupid room, how did Michael stay so untouched?
