“Looks like Agent Monroe and a few others are leaving.” Jacob stared out the windshield with interest.
He and Evelyn sat in the car across the street in a food market parking lot and watched the commotion unfold. The police buzzed around like a swarm of bees, and when the FBI showed up and took over the scene, the police surrendered their command and adopted the role of lowly minions.
Evelyn huffed. “The typical chain of command like in all things. It’s time for the little guy to stand up for what’s right, and that’s exactly what we’re doing.”
“Amen to that, honey. We probably have a long night ahead of us since Agent Monroe is getting into that cruiser with the other three. She doesn’t appear to be going home yet. We’re going to need someone else to watch her until she leaves for the night and then follow her home. I’ll call Micah as soon as they arrive at wherever they’re going. He can take over after that. We have too much to do tonight, and it’s imperative we get it done without interruptions. Payback will begin tonight to those who deserve it.”
Jacob pulled out of the lot and followed several car lengths behind the cruiser as it headed south. Once they reached the southern suburbs of Milwaukee, he was pretty certain of the agents’ final destination. He’d done his research. They were going back to the FBI headquarters in St. Francis, and he would tell Micah to meet them across the street from the entrance to the compound. Jacob would forward Jade’s photograph to Micah’s cell phone so he’d know exactly who to follow. After that, they’d part ways, and he, Evelyn, Cole, and Lucas would meet on the block where the attorney lived. That night, two more people would be checked off their kill list.
