"I haven't found anything, and I haven't felt anything," Wrath said with a sigh two hours later.
Dan nodded, "Me, either. Well, let's go pay our Mr. Leota a visit at Ajax and see what we can find out."
Wrath nodded and looked at the mess. "Yes, let's."
"Come on, Boris, let's see if we can find a taxi."
"It's almost eleven," Wrath pointed out.
"Yeah, but there're a lot of clubs on the next street over."
"So why don't we just roll a drunk and borrow their car?"
Dan sighed and looked at her.
"Oh, come on! We'll be protecting the city from another drunk driver, and we'll be doing the poor guy or gal a favor."
"Fine," Dan said, rolling his eyes. "Lead the way."
Wrath smiled and strutted down the street, obviously happy to have gotten her way, while Dan followed her and enjoyed the show. Around the corner and down to the next block, there were several clubs, and at eleven on a Monday night, Dan was surprised to see there were more than a few drunks.
Wrath zeroed right in on a gal who was staggering down the steps, and putting an arm around her, she chatted her up.
Three minutes later, they were in a nice Lexus. The woman was in the back with Boris, whom she seemed quite comfortable with. Obviously she liked dogs, but was too drunk to realize why she was in the back seat of her car with one while someone else was driving.
Dan programmed the address into the GPS while Wrath drove them there.
"Ah, good, it's in a residential district," Dan said.
"And that matters why?"
"Because I didn't feel like waiting until he came in to work again."
"Good point," Wrath conceded, then glanced up in the mirror, smirked a moment, and then went back to driving. Dan shook his head and decided he didn't want to know.
When they got to the house, they cruised down the street slowly.
"Looks like someone may still be up," Wrath said.
"Most cleaning services work after the offices have closed for the day, so he probably just got home."
Wrath parked the car. "Okay, let's go talk to him. Boris, keep your new friend there occupied. We shouldn't be gone long."
Dan snorted and, getting out of the car, followed Wrath as she walked up to the house and around to the side door, which was closest to the van in the driveway.
"How do we do this?" Dan asked.
"We knock on the door, then if he doesn't cooperate, we knock on his head," Wrath said with an evil grin.
"What about his family?"
"What about them?"
"We're not killing anybody, Wrath. Got that?"
Wrath pouted. "Spoilsport."
"Wrath," Dan growled, "I will do nasty shit to you if kill or maim these people!"
"Fine, fine, we'll do it your way," she replied, and then lightly knocked on the door.
"Step out of sight," she told him.
They both heard footsteps coming over to the door.
"What!" a large man said, pulling the door open.
"Hi! What did you do with the briefcase you found at Mill's Produce Storage?" Wrath asked with a nice big smile.
