CHAPTER 9

In the back parking lot of Carlo’s Bar, in the Bronx, Chris and Velma met with Remmi Harlow and three of Remmi’s “associates”, each of which wore a gun under their jackets.

They were standing outside the same white van that Remmi had used before. Chris was hoping that the van was once again filled with illegal firearms; otherwise, he would have a lot of angry ATF agents to deal with.

The agents were nearby, and two were even watching from the very rooftop vantage point that Chris and Velma had previously used.

Chris snapped his fingers at Remmi, who was busy admiring Velma.

“Are we going to do business, or are you going to stare at my partner all night?”

“Chill dude, I was just looking. I got a thing for hot blondes.”

“I hear you, but let’s do this deal. My client needs the guns right away.”

“As soon as I see the money,” Remmi said.

Chris handed him a briefcase and Remmi opened it, looked inside, and then handed it off to one of his men.

“Check that, Gino.”

The man named Gino laid the briefcase on the roof of Chris’s car and began checking each bundle of cash. It took nearly five minutes, but in the end, the money was pronounced good.

“It’s all here.”

Remmi made a smacking sound of satisfaction with his lips and opened the back doors of the van. Inside, were six plastic totes. They were blue and about two-feet wide. Remmi removed the top off the first one and revealed twenty identical 9mm guns.

“That sixth tote is a bonus. There’s an automatic rifle in there. We’re expanding our product line.”

“You might want to hold off on the expansion plans,” Chris said.

“And why is that?”

A spotlight came on, even as a voice boomed from a megaphone.

“ATF! Put your hands in the air.”

Remmi shut his eyes tightly and cursed, but one of his men decided to fight back and raised a weapon towards the spotlight. Before the man could fire, he took a rifle bullet to the shoulder and his gun rattled away as he fell against the side of the van.

After the arrests, Tommy Delaney joined Chris and Velma.

“You guys did great, but look at these weapons, these aren’t Saturday night specials; these are well-made.”

“Where do you think Remmi’s been getting them from?” Chris said.

“Who knows, but if he’s smart, he’ll trade the name for a lighter sentence.”

Chris felt his phone vibrate and checked the caller ID.

“It’s Granddad... hi, are you and Kelli back home?”

“Yeah, how’d your sting go?”

“Like clockwork, but how was Texas?”

“Your cousins were great, and the case is heating up. You and Velma get back here when you can.”

“Yes sir, and we’ll see you soon.”

Delaney gestured at the phone.

“Did he tell you what happened in Texas?”

“Not in any detail, why?”

“He wasn’t hurt or anything, but five men attacked him and Kelli. Big mistake, Uncle Jake shot four of them dead.”

Velma grinned.

“That old man is incredible.”

Delaney chuckled.

“He did this in Texas, mind you, where the original Jake Caliber is still a legend.
