Brian carried the body bag back to Chief Flory's squad car just as the chief arrived with a woman in tow.
Seeing the woman behind Chief Flory, Brian felt a stir in his heart.
Could this woman be the one Captain Krist obsessed over, the one who would bring him his reward?
Chief Flory also eyed the bulging body bag in Brian's hands.
He swallowed hard, sounding unnatural as he said, "Brian, Autopsy Officer, this is Ellie, an Internal Affairs staffer for the CD organization."
When Brian left, he had been with Captain Krist.
In just a short while, Captain Krist had disappeared and the body bag Brian was carrying had swelled.
Damn, was the efficiency that exaggerated?
Brian paid no attention to Chief Flory's gaze.
He scrutinized Ellie standing behind Chief Flory.
Ellie was a petite blonde Caucasian, standing only as tall as Brian's chest, probably just over 4'7", pretty but not stunning, with an ordinary figure.
With a mask, she could probably pass for a middle schooler.
