CHAPTER 12
“Still don’t see why I’m the one who has to leave,” Milo grumbled. “Standing out in the fucking rain for an hour. It’s bullshit. My shoes are ruined. And what took you guys so long? I called this in seven hours ago. The fucking coroner got here before you did.”
“I just got the call this morning,” McTaggart said. “Switchboard always puts it through to the uniforms first. They said you wouldn’t let them in?”
“I let them in after I realized you assholes weren’t going to haul your lazy asses out of bed. I told them not to touch anything.”
“Well, when I got the call, I picked up Jones and we came right away.”
“It took all night to contact you?”
“I don’t control the calls, man. Captain said the ambulance was dispatched to the wrong address, and when they called in to sort it out, their call went to narcotics for some reason. Narcotics called dispatch back and told them to call it in again, and it went to the main desk, but this time it was flagged as a burglary. The guy there didn’t know what the fuck was going on, so he sent some more uniforms to the wrong address again to investigate. I think by that time it’d been flagged as a domestic disturbance. I guess it took a while for the switchboard to sort it out. Anyway, we’re here now. Thanks for preserving the scene.”
“So why am I out here? Jones put the restraining order against me. Why can’t he wait outside?”
McTaggart shrugged. “Maybe you should try to avoid pouring caustic chemicals over people. Then you’d get to stay inside with the grownups.”
Milo frowned. “He’s an asshole and he still smells like rotten sausages.”
“I know.” McTaggart opened his tiny black notebook. “Thanks to your stunt, he’s my problem now.”
“Sorry.”
“No you’re not.”
“Not really.”
McTaggart sighed. “This is just shitty all around.”
“I wish I’d never met these idiots.”
“If it makes you feel any better, Jones just got called a cock-sniffing douche-nozzle and the one with the weird glasses smelled him.”
“That does make it a little better.”
“Seriously, Milo,” McTaggart said. “I know you’re a little odd, and sometimes you even scare me, but you don’t belong here with them. Those people are crazy with a capital C.”
“Tell me about it.”
“What’s up with the girl with no fingers?”
“She bit them off.”
“Jesus.”
“I know.”
“I… uh… So we should just get to your statement. I’m told you saw the whole thing go down. What the hell happened? The vic just lost it?”
He nodded.
“Without provocation or warning?”
“They’re all ridiculous most of the time, so I doubt any of them need provocation to go full-on batshit. What happened tonight was totally out of left field, though. I thought they were pretty much harmless.”
“Nobody’s harmless, in my opinion.”
He agreed. “Andy was unusually agitated tonight. Most of the time, he’s pretty quiet and not prone to outbursts like a few of the others. I don’t know what happened between him and Ozzie, but one minute we were getting the food ready and the next, Andy’s running at the poor bastard with a knife.
