Chapter 14

When they finished talking to Patricia, they parted on a friendly note. Next on their list was to talk to the fruit boy. Elsa-May and Ettie headed on foot to the markets where he worked, when they saw Ava’s buggy approaching. Elsa-May stepped close to the road and waved to her, and she pulled her buggy over to the side.

Ava jumped out to secure her horse. “I’ve been looking for you two. I went to your haus, but you’d already left.”

“Are you alone?” Ettie craned her neck looking for Aaron.

“Jah. It’s Mamm’s day to look after him today. Have you had the meeting with the nurse?”

“We’ve only just finished.”

“What did you find out?”

“Nothing really. She said a lot of people think that she's preying on old people. She insists she gave the money to various charities.”

“I wonder if there's a way to check on that. It's easy enough for anyone to say they donated the money to charity. Which charities were they?”

Ettie looked at Elsa-May. “She didn't say.”

“She was still wearing gloves. Did you notice that Elsa-May?”

“I did. And you’d think she would have taken them off because it wasn’t cold in the café.”

“Why are you worried about the gloves?”

“Kelly explained to us that it was possible that the killer might’ve accidentally cut themselves because the knife hit bone and there was something about the angle of the knife handle and such.”

“You think she's cut her fingers, so you think she did it?”

“I don't know. We still don't know why anyone had any reason to kill him.”

“We were on our way to the markets to find the delivery boy to ask him a few questions. He was at the funeral,” Ettie told Ava.

“Jump in and I’ll drive you. Let’s see if we can find him, shall we?”

The sisters didn’t need to be asked twice. Getting a ride was far better than walking.

They drove to the markets and were fortunate enough to see the fruit boy in one corner of the parking lot.

“See him, Elsa-May?”

“Not without my glasses. I need them for close up work, but I can’t see very well far away either.”

“That’s him. He’s unloading empty boxes from that pickup truck.”

“I’ll park here further away if you want to speak to him, Ettie.”

“Denke, Ava.”

“I’ll go with you,” Elsa-May said.
