She smiled and headed into the kitchen.
As soon as she was gone, Dakota rushed out to do what they said.
While he was off doing that, The Hunters sat, talking over what went down.
Maura needed to get her ducks in a row so that she could plan tomorrow's work. They had to follow that vehicle from the police station, and pray that no one found Jinx’s little present of a suicidal cop hanging in the building.
“Okay, we are going to be handling tomorrow carefully,” Maura said. “From what Jinx has told us, we know that van is moving out early.”
Jinx clued them in.
“It’s got the rest of Addiction on it. I’m betting it’s the contraband that Chevy stole from Teague right before we went into that warehouse and blew it to pieces.”
Maura agreed.
“We’ll be down Dakota and Eve tomorrow. So, I want to hit them with those of us who are good at being sneaky.”
They all looked at Rogue.
“That’s a compliment, so I’ll take it. I’m definitely in. I’ll see if I can get some of Remmy’s tech and use it to track it, in case the cop, Aiden, loses us.”
Maura was good with that.
“The driver is one of the other cops on the list that Elizabeth gave us. We might not get all five, but we’ll get as many as we can. That should drive the remaining cops under if they see their compadres going down. Cops aren’t stupid. They’ll read the room.”
That was good with them.
Merry raised her hand.
“You wanted those names run on the cops, right?” she asked.
Maura nodded.
“Well, I have good and bad news.”
They waited.
“They are all clean on paper. Chevy is getting smarter and smarter. If he’s paying them, it’s not in cash. I did notice something about all the cops, and that includes the man that had a terrible neck injury tonight,” she said.
“What?”
Merry explained.
“They all have pretty big cryptocurrency accounts.”
“And what is the bad news?”
“I can’t track that. It’s digital, and it’s something that’s so new, that there’s not a specific place it’s stored. You lock it in a digital vault, and finding the location and the super long crypto key to open that account…”
They got it.
What needed to happen was Chevy had to be found before he exceeded their skill in hunting.
He was close.
Maura put her boots on the edge of the coffee table.
“And here is the dilemma of playing chase with an ex-Marine. He’s smarter than Teague ever was. That makes our job harder because he was trained for deep cover ops.”
