Nick was already calling up what he could on the third guy, going over
everything with a fine tooth comb until he heard the sound of the entrance
opening and looked up.
"It has to be this last guy, Derek," He said by way of greeting, jaw
clenching once before he raised an eyebrow curiously "Julia suggested we
call Frank to get an unofficial little driveby look at his address since we
don't have hard proof to get them involved officially. She sounded like she
wasn't really going to be involved in this one."
As if, he thought, she were stepping back from Legacy work for some reason.
Alex and Nick had ended up talking about Julia's position or, more
specifically, what her position was considering she hadn't been given back
her old one and she wasn't taking on any official ones yet.
Of course, considering Julia had told him that she could be found in Derek's
office later doing Luna Foundation paperwork -- well he was definitely
curious. Had the Legacy refused her a position already and just haven't
told the team yet?
"The second guy checked out with an alibi. He's been out of the country for
the past four months and had documents to back it up. I checked them out
and it's all clean."
Derek:
Derek took a seat in an empty chair beside Nick and listen to his report
intently. "That's a good idea, I'll give him a call and have him ride by.
Print out the address and I'll go over there later this morning and see what
I can find out. What have you been able to find on him?" Derek settled
back in the chair. He noticed the curiosity in Nick's face when he
mentioned Julia, however Derek deliberately choose to ignore that. If NIck
wanted to know he was going to have to come right out and ask. Since the
matter was troubling Derek he had no intention of discussing it voluntarily.
