Chapter Three The Tests of Willpower

Out into the field. It was some what late. With everyone extremely tired from the long day. After being called into the new murder case.

Medical Examiner Perlmutter had confirmed. Lawyer Jordon Jacobs did indeed die from two gun shots directly into the chest at close ranger. Evidence had showed. The two bullets were from a police special of all things.

And with his report. He was able to send it to all involved. Including Captain Kate Beckett. However to his surprised. Having to be some what annoyed for the most part.

Mystery writer Richard Castle had shown up at the morgue. Very early in the morning. After having only a few hours of sleep. After being told about the case from his wife Kate Beckett.

Castle shudder to think to find out Lawyer Jordan Jacobs actually died from a police special no less. Meaning. They'd another mystery on their hands. Only makes it even more interesting. Never the less.

Perlmutter didn't bother to waste his time fighting. He was just too tired for the moment. So he handed Castle the complete file in regard to his complete findings.

Putting on his blue gloves in order to check the body. Castle went to work. In order to look further for any type of clues. Perlmutter probably no doubt missed.

Immediately. He found a piece of paper from inside of his grey jacket. Left inside of the evidence bag. It seemed mostly to be account numbers. He asked Perlmutter. Walking into his office on whether. He was able to take the paper with him.

Looking up from his computer terminal. He waived his hand in disgust. Otherwise he gave permission to take it with him. Even though he asked to have it back as soon as possible. For his files.

He agreed to do so. Once he was done with pulling up the numbers on his computer terminal. Or whether detective Kevin Ryan and Sergeant Javier Esposito will be able to find any trace. From inside of the 12th precinct bullpen.

Perlmutter was mostly mumbling under his breath. Otherwise leaving him to his work in quiet. Castle decided to leave the morgue. In order to follow up further with finding of the account numbers.

With his instincts. He called Alexis and Hayley at his P.I. office asking for assitance. He told them. He was coming over right away with something differently to sink their teeth in. He didn't tell them anything over the phone. In case his phone might be tapped or being followed. But he highly doubt it.

Taking the gamble. Taking his Mercedes to head over to the office. He was feeling some what paranoid for just a brief moment. Ever since his wife had the recent run in with Michael Smith and under cover operation "Stringing Me Along."

He as able to park his vehicle into the back of his office. Instead of going into the front. In order not to make a direct target.

Making his way into the old fashion elevator to head for his level and his office. Alexis and Hayley were waiting for Castle to walk in.

Since both ladies had a great deal of curiosity going with them. However when Castle gave Hayley the information and the piece of paper.

Hayley went to work on trying to bring up the account numbers. It would take a few moments with typing in passwords. "Got it!" She deadpans with her response. Along with everyone else inside of his secret office.

"What did you find out Hayley?" Castle said with astute observation.

She tells him to take a look at the computer screen. He walks around her shoulder. In order to stare at the information brought up on the screen.

He was in complete shock_
