Inspector Anderson was lire Cas’ file when the door opened and a deputy appeared.
“Eh, Luke?” he asked careful. Anderson looked up. “Chief Barnes wants to speak with you”
“I’ll be there in a minute” Anderson promised and he looked down again.
“He a dit it was urgent” the deputy continued.
Anderson closed the file and stood. “Then I’ll be there now” he sighed and he followed the deputy outside to Chief Barnes’ office. Without knocking Anderson entered. Barnes was lire a paper, which he put down when Anderson walked towards him.
“Have a seat, Luke” Barnes said. Luke. This was not good. Luke sat down. “How are toi doing?”
Luke assumed Barnes was talking about Isabel. “I’m coping, sir”
“You and Isabel were pretty close” Barnes said. “How do toi feel now toi know who killed her?”
“Angry” Luke replied obvious.
Barnes nodded in understanding. “We have charges against you. From Novak himself. He claims toi attempted his life par piercing him with dozens of razor blades”
“He what?” Luke exclaimed in disbelief. What a pretentious prick, he thought disgusted. He had always believed Isabel exaggerated when she talked about him. And she had talked about him a lot. “Chief, I guarantee toi that I did not lay a finger on the suspect. I bet toi anything he did it himself”
“Why would he do that?” Barnes asked skeptic.
“So, we’d have to transfer him to the hospital so he could find a way out. He’s good at that” Luke explained obvious.
Barnes nodded. “I’ll have the security footage checked” he said. “In the meantime I want toi to get in contact with the guard in the hospital”
Luke a dit he’d do it right away and left the office.

“What do toi mean, she’s gone?”
Cas and Zoey had been told that Daphne was gone.
“She’s not in her room. But we’re searching the entire building and the neighborhood. She can’t get far” the head doctor said.
“How could this happen?” Zoey asked mad. “Don’t toi have some kind of security system here?”
“She a volé, étole a badge. She didn’t have to break into the system. She could just open the door” the doctor explained.
“And who’s the idiot who let her steal his badge?” Zoey asked demeaning.
“He’s waiting in my office” the doctor answered. “He already told me what happened. Listen, Mrs. Moore, Daphne can’t get far. We’ll find her par the end of the night”
He walked away from them; he had to go feu the nurse.
Zoey looked at Cas. “We need to find her” she said, slightly panicking.
