We waited in front of the command building out on the street.

Romey said, “The agents who are here are British.”

“British?”

“You know, like crumpets and James Bond?”

“They’re a part of Her Majesty’s Secret Service?”

“Or whatever. They got the accents.”

Widow said, “Sounds like MI6.”

“Who?”

Widow said, “England’s Secret Intelligence Service. It’s like their version of the CIA. How many guys?”

“Just two guys.”

“So, what are they here for?”

Romey looked around the street. She looked in the direction of both checkpoints like she was checking her guys. Then she said, “You can ask them yourself when we head back to the station. I think they’re still there.”

Just then, we saw Kelly pull up outside the checkpoint to the south, as he had before when he picked me up. A police van followed behind him. I hadn’t seen it before. They all passed the guards and rolled up to us. The van pulled around and off to the sidewalk and parked.

Four people got out. Two of them were women. All four of them were young. They looked like they were in their twenties.

Romey walked over to Kelly’s window and said, “Don’t get out.”

He didn’t.

She said, “We got some new info.”

“What?”

“A video. From Turik.”

“A confession?”

“No.”

“What is it?”

“I’ll show it to you later. But it looks like Turik is innocent.”

Kelly said, “What? How?”

“It looks like he might’ve been coerced. Or at the very least, he had an accomplice.”

“What do you want me to do?”

“Stay here with the team. Make sure they go over Colonel Warren’s office.”

She went on to explain to him the situation and my theory of what happened.

I stepped toward her car and looked at the checkpoints again. Some of the MPs stared back at me. I made eye contact with one of them. He looked me over suspiciously and then returned to talking to one of the other MPs.

I saw the forensic team go to the back of the van and pull out a bunch of gear. They wore protective eye goggles and plastic gloves.

I looked down at mine and pulled them off, stuffed them into my pocket.

Romey came over and said, “Let’s go.”

We got into the car, and she backed up, headed back toward the same checkpoint that we had gone through earlier. She said, “Where to first?”

I said, “Got Warren’s home address?”

“Of course. It’s on the computer.”

“We’d better head over there.”

“No reason to call South Korea then?”

“You can have one of your guys call to see if there ever were orders, but I doubt it.”

Romey headed toward the gate.

I said, “How are you going to get past the media?”

She said, “Don’t worry about that.”

And she smiled.
