Chapter 21

“You really didn’t need to take us to the chief,” I told Porn, as we walked away from the desks. “I can see the chief’s office from here.”

“True,” she said, “but you also didn’t have to deal with Officer Granger. After that, it was the least I could do.” She lifted her hands to her face, in what I’d later learn was a Thai gesture of respect. “You have no idea how many people wish they could do what you just did, but the chief protects him for some reason.”

We followed the wall toward the back of the room. It was lined with photos. Some were of officers who had fallen in the line of duty and others seemed to be of former chiefs.

One picture in the middle got my attention.

“Officer Porn, can you tell me about this picture?” I asked. “The face and name are gone. Except for the first letter, I mean. ‘O’ can’t be this officer’s full name, right?”

She looked for a second, then shrugged.

“I’m not sure. It’s been like that since before I joined the team. We just call that picture Officer O, since that’s the only letter we can make out.” She took my arm and started walking again. “I bet there’s an interesting story behind it, but nobody’s been able to find out anything.”

Less than a minute later I was standing in front of the chief’s office.

“Here we are,” Porn said. “See you around, officer…?”

“Oh, sorry” I said. “I never got a chance to introduce myself. I’m Mark Vedis. Head Agent Vedis, actually. This is Agent Enchada and our special liaison, Prince Volkbert.”

She nodded at my two teammates, then put her hand out for me to shake.

I felt a slip of paper pressed into my palm as she winked at me.

“So nice to meet you, Agent Vedis,” she said. “I hope we run into each other again while you’re in town. Many times.”

I snuck a glance at the paper as she walked away.

It was a phone number.

Nice.

She was very attractive, but thanks to my entrainment, she didn’t do anything for me.

The door to the chief’s office opened almost as soon as I knocked.

It was nice not to be kept waiting, though the look on Chief Rakenchan’s face made it clear that waiting would have been preferable.

She was a strict-looking woman, well into middle age, and she had the vibe of every principal I’d ever crossed paths with.

“Agent Vedis, I assume?”

“Head agent, yes.” I clarified.

Agent was a good enough term most of the time, but since a dick waving contest was brewing, I decided to start the fluffing early.

“Very well,” she said, mockingly, “Head Agent, Vedis, should we start with you telling me why I shouldn’t have you arrested for assaulting one of my officers?”

I assumed she was referring to Officer Granger.

“You mean aside from him sexually assaulting one of my agents,” I countered.

“I saw it on my cameras,” she said, pointing to a monitor full of surveillance feeds. “He barely touched her.”

“So, I should have waited for him to get a good handful then?” Mira asked.
