Goren scanned through the notes and different files that were stacked on his desk trying to find connections, but nothing panned out to reveal a led. Three young women were found killed and five were still missing, Eames was doing intense background checks but still no connections except that three of the murder victims had a red rose were the bodies were found.
A flower shop that could be where they killer may go next for his next batch of roses but so many flower shops in New York. Goren's mind was on a tether being dragged around by endless dead ends. "Bobby I found something" Eames said with a reserved smile.
Unfortunately that led was also a wild goose chase punctuated by moments of the people around them seeing they had no clue what or who they were looking for. The partners were in Eames car driving back from an interview that did not provide the intel whey were hoping for a deep fog of frustration lay on the two of them as hey tried to work thought what they were missing. But for now they would head back to the squad room to reconvene with Captain Ross and give him the bad news about the lack of progress on the case.
"Eames we should check over a few more thing I have a feeling were getting closer." Goren said as he nodded tilting his head to the left, he look out the window to lock gazes with a pale faced man who resembled a woman with long black hair and piercing green eyes. He gave Goren a condescending smirk suddenly the young man hit his motorcycle brakes swerving away. Goren shoved his head out of the window to look but he's gone.
"What's wrong Bobby" she asked looking at him then back at the road.
"I think our suspect just found us" he nodded fidgeting.
"Huh? I thought we were supposed to find them" she smiled laughing sarcastically. "Anyway why you think that?"
She looked towards Bobby whose head was half way out the car window.
"A feeling and the way he smirked" his body moved and shifted like it always did when he was thinking.
When they got back to their office he drew the face he saw sat down and told Captain Ross. "We should show some of the families to see if they know this man." Goren said as he pushed the picture towards the two of them.
It worked the Emit and Hunter family recognized the young man he had dated their daughter for a while. They said he lived it an apartment complex in the lower east side of Queens. The family also told them that he did not have black hair he was a short haired blonde.
They left straight for the apartment it took them 30 minutes to get to the building. The Apartment look drab dark and very much abandoned.
It wasn't any different than any other building they opened a rusty door; holding up their flashlights and guns out, but only thing there was nobody there, only a lone white piece of paper with a message written on it that was on an old varnished table. "What the hell is this?" His partner asked exasperated a stern tone to her voice and she moved towards the note.
Still looking around for a hiding suspect Goren picked up the note:
Nice try Mr. Detective try again.
I'll call you, with love~
It was hard to say what Goren was feeling he just blankly looked at the note, but Eames was on a different level of pissed she didn't say anything just crossed her arms then rubbed her temples. They left for the station after calling the location of the supposed killer.
"You really think he'll call?" Caption Ross asked doubtfully Goren began to explain why in his half manic way, with the buzzwords Megalomania, god complex and narcissist half way through he got a call on his desk phone he walked over picked up it frustrated he asked "Hello who is this?"
"Hi, Mr. Detective still looking for me I'm truly flattered," a lightly accented French voice spoke in a deep silky tone more cocky than anything. Ross and Eames both blinked in surprise with the expression of, this is our killer, written all over their faces. Goren himself felt rather underwhelmed another foreigner killing Americans some shit different day.
