тАЬYou may, if you like,тАЭ she said quietly, тАЬbut youтАЩll go alone and I would prefer to wait and see what
happens.тАЭ

Which meant she knew a lot more than she was telling. He had the feeling if he insisted on seeing the
D.A.; heтАЩd for a fact never see her again.

He instantly decided that was an unacceptable course of action. Screw the risk to his personal health!
He had to get to know this woman.

тАЬSoтАжwhat?тАЭ

тАЬWe wait until Carlotti is arrested. It shouldnтАЩt be long. A lot of people are looking for him.тАЭ She said
that with cool relish and he made a mental note to never get on her bad side. тАЬWhen heтАЩs arrested,
youтАЩre out of danger.тАЭ

тАЬDoesnтАЩt he have hench-thugs who could still get me?тАЭ

She nodded. тАЬIn theory. But they wonтАЩt make a move without him breathing in their ears. You can see
the D.A.тАФhis name is Thomas Wechter, by the way, second floor of the courthouse, take a left past the
water fountainтАФand tell him your story, tell him youтАЩre willing to testify, ask to see the rest of his case. If
he has one.тАЭ

тАЬWhat about you?тАЭ he asked, trying once again, even though he knew it was useless. The same tenacity
that made other doctors literally pull him off a DOA wouldnтАЩt let him back away from this. тАЬYou were
wronged by Carstupidi. You should testify that he tried to kill you! I mean, JesusтАФthat big bully, if you
hadnтАЩt cleaned his clock, I would have.тАЭ

She snorted and he raised an eyebrow at her. тАЬSorry,тАЭ she said quickly. тАЬI was just picturing you and
CarlottiтАФbut you were talking about the D.A. I canтАЩt testify. ItтАЩs all up to you.тАЭ

тАЬWhat are you afraid of?тАЭ he asked boldly, sure sheтАЩd rebuff him, or deny fear. Instead, she just gave
him a level look.

тАЬNothing I could explain to you,тАЭ she said quietly, then got up, poured the rest of her coffee down the
sink and walked to the window. She took the cup with her, he noticed. After a moment, he got it: she
was so paranoid, she wouldnтАЩt take a chance on leaving fingerprints behind. Interesting. тАЬSee you
around, Dr. Dean. IтАЩll be in touch.тАЭ She stepped up to the windowsill.

тАЬItтАЩsJared ,тАЭ he yelled, darting after her, тАЬand use thedoor , for GodтАЩs sake! Look, itтАЩs right here.тАЭ He
rattled the doorknob invitingly; she ignored him. тАЬI can walk you to the main entrance. Ha! Some
bodyguard!тАЭ he practically screamed and that got her attention; she paused and turned, looking at him
over her shoulder, one foot already on the ledge. тАЬLeaving me here to rot! IтАЩm easy pickings for
CarlottiтАЩs henchmorons.тАЭ

She smiled. тАЬHardly. IтАЩll be close. Good night.тАЭ

тАЬWait!тАЭ But the window closed firmly and when he darted to it to look out, it was so dark he couldnтАЩt
see her anymore.
