“and kick up my feet.” “I feel ya, partner.” I clicked my seat belt and stared out the window. It had been a long week, and I looked forward to going home too.

I promised I’d be home for dinner.”

“We live in Cedarburg.” He rattled off their address as I jotted it down. “We just had lunch at Omicron, which we do twice a month. Anyway, we were headed home.

“None of the guns we found at Charlie’s house fit those parameters. He had a couple twenty-twos under the couch cushion, a rifle, and two sawed-off shotguns. We have no idea if Joe owned any firearms since the house had been cleaned out.” Jack looked around the table. “Any comments?”

“She lives up the street two houses. Charlie was pretty sweet on her after Denise cut him off, if you know what I mean.

“Um… no reason in particular except that it’s cow country and less populated.” Both men grinned. “To be honest, Mr. Moore, thirty miles north is like being in a different country. All that’s around the area are fields where farmers on tractors are plowing something with shit-smelling fertilizer. We found a flat, straight road where we could see for miles in each direction.

We’ll try to track down the woman, then move on to those, see what shakes out, then decide if a second run on the news is necessary. Hopefully it won’t be.” He turned to Jamison and Horbeck and waved them toward the door. “Thanks, guys. Now go on home and get some rest.”

“You need a bib, buddy.” I opened the patio door, shooed him out, and after wiping up the mess with a paper towel, cracked open a beer while I made sure he did his business.
