The door bell rang while all the chatter was going on in Brandy's house, and the little oriental girl ran to see who it was, she was always expecting Dick to return, but she was disappointed this time, it was Tony, coming to see Brandy to get to he bottom of the murder. Tony came into the house and gave Brandy a kiss on the cheeks and hugged her much too long for a casual customer, and some of the girls noticed it and gave each other the eye, admitting that they were suspicious of Brandy and Tony, the guy from New York. Tony took Brandy by the arm and steered her to the den, where he sat her down and said straight on at her "what do you know about the murder, do you know who did it?" Brandy not one to take anything from anyone, said to him what the hell do you mean Tony, it was one of your guys, it had to be and further more some of the girls actually saw your man hit and kick our poor young girl to death, so who was it Tony, I want to know. Brandy by this time was ready to explode, and the importance of it, the murder could kill her whole business, with the bad publicity and all, plus she is certain the girls parents, wherever they are will be demanding answers, that she does not have. Tony who very rarely allows anyone to talk to him that way bit his tongue, and smiled all the while at Brandy, he asked for something to drink, it was so unlike Brandy not to offer her guest a drink, but this shows how upset she was, she got up and apologized to him and brought him a scotch on the rocks, just the way he likes. He took it and gulped it down showing how upset he was, the scotch felt good and soothing, Tony at this time did not have any answers for Brandy or for that matter for the police who he damn well knew they would be having him in soon for questioning, all this before the big boys were coming to town. Man it seems that it only rains when it pours and it sure was pouring rain hard and heavy or something like that he never could get things like that straight. The two of them settled down and for about two hours she and Tony talked and tried to piece the party together, with the girls adding their view points into the conversation. All in all it seems it boiled down to one of the guys from New Orleans itself, but there was no definitive evidence, just the fact he was seen with her, and they at that time were going at it heavy is the way it was described to Tony. He said to Brandy do not worry sweet heart with all this information I think I can find out who did this to the young girl.
Tony had another scotch drink, listened to the talk from the girls and then kissed Brandy good bye and whispered in her ear, "I will get back to you honey very soon." He knew in his heart that all hell was going to break vey soon and all the guys in the mob and especially those at the party would be pulled in to the police station for questioning, he had better get them together and straighten out the story they will tell the cops. Tony got in his car, a rather non luxury car, he preferred it that way, so as not to attract his neighbors jealousy, God that was what knocked down the biggies in Chicago where was their brains Tony thought?
