Yeah…I know…but Jane had to go to work. She's nothing if not dedicated! They will be alone again soon!

Chapter 11

Jane had got changed into her wrinkled clothes in the car and ran into the BPD building. She entered the workroom just as detective Crowe was leaving.

"You look like a fucking hobo Rizzoli…Your Ma not dress you this morning"

"Shut the fuck up Crowe….Your Ma should have swallowed you when she had the chance." Jane retorted as she pushed passed him.

Their acknowledgment of each other as delightful as ever.

"Hi guys. What's happening?" Jane asked to Frost and Korsak, who were already working at there desks.

"Late night Jane?" Korsak asked with a smile in his voice, looking over at Frost.

"Just tell me about the case old man" Jane sat at her desk and threw the bag of dog treats that were on it into the bin with a smirk and a thought of Maura. She began to open up files on her PC.

"No witnesses, nobody heard or saw anything….and we still don't know the primary crime scene." Frost knew not to annoy Jane first thing in the morning.

"Maura's notes confirm the COD was the GSW to the forehead. She had heroin and alcohol in her system. Ms Swade was high as a kite when she was shot. 26. Unmarried. Boston born and schooled but no known address since 2009 . She has a sister in Washington State who couldn't give a rats ass that she was killed. Moved to the other side of the country to get away from her. Nice family." Korsak added.

"So….we have a homeless junkie that nobody gives a shit about being gunned down by what looks like a professional killer" Jane said curiously tugging at her hair.

"Well…somebody must have gave enough shits to shoot her" Frost continued "We are just waiting on Dr Isle's finishing her autopsy so we can get more info on the bullet that killed her"

Jane smiled goofily hearing Maura's name.

"What's got into you all of a sudden? Really likes bullets huh?" Frost asked Jane

"Em….It's not Dr Isles that is performing the autopsy. She is still at home….her house"

"Oh? Is she sick?...I hope it's not catching….I'm dog sitting tonight" Korsak said feeling his own head with the back of his hand.

"No. Pike went over her head and is now performing the autopsy as we speak"

"Shiiiit….Brave man" Korsak said "Or an dipshit"

"I'm going with dipshit" Jane snorted. "We probably won't get any results for a few more hours. I'll run some guys down I know on the street and see if I can find out anything more. You guys wanna come with?"

"Yeah….I'm in" Said Korsak

"I will stay and see if I can get a hit on her anywhere. Banks, CCTV, social media and the likes."

Jane and Korsak left Frost to play with his toys.

Rondo

"Heeeeeeeeey Vanilla….What's going onnnn with you?" The familiar voice came from behind Jane and she turned around to see Rondo walking up to her, arms wide as if going in for a hug.

"That's close enough Rondo….I got some questions for ya" Jane said holding out her arm at him.

"Awwwwww…..no sweet loving for your main man here Vanilla?"

"Fraid not…..have you heard anything on the junkie shooting last night?" Jane got straight down to business.

"Yeah….I might know a few things"

Jane held out a $20 bill at him. He took it in both hands with a little bow.

"Crazy Carly right? Just a kid man….She was batshit though….too many years on and off cheap junk. Living in an abandoned warehouse near the docks…the old fish packing place….I could take ya there. Dangerous place for a lady" He smiled mischievously.

"Thanks…..but I got my own escort" She tapped her gun on here hip "….anything else?" She slipped him another $20.

"Yeah….heard she had got herself in tow with one ah the young Irish" Rondo continued "O'Rourke…No…..O'Flannigan...….O'Guinness….O'…you know…..something Irish and mob" Rondo just shrugged.

Jane laughed a little at that "Thanks…Rondo…Keep outta trouble ya hear" Jane walked back towards the car. Korsak followed.

"Oh I will….for you….Vanilla" Rondo shouted after them. Jane rolled her eyes at Korsak over the roof of the car as she heaved her door open.

Jane and Korsak

"So we got two vague connections to crime families. First with the dump ground and now she might have known some of them. That a coincidence you think?" Jane asked Korsak as they drove to the docks.

"Hmmmm…I don't know Jane…..very little ends up a coincidence with them" Korsak replied.

"That's what I was thinking" The continued the rest of their journey in silence.

Jane was thinking of Maura the whole time….even before the mention of Irish mob families. But now even more so…..and the pang in her gut told her she was worried. Jane might go talk to Paddy Doyle in jail to see if he knows anything. If he will talk to her that is.

They pulled in at the warehouse Rondo had mentioned and got out the car. The air stank of rotten fish, dirty sea water and filth. "Oaf….pungent" Korsak said swatting at his nose.

"It is indeed" Jane replied screwing her face up.

"Let's go" Both Jane and Korsak unclipped there holster's and removed their guns and pointed them out as they entered the building.

"Boston Police….we are entering this building….please be aware" Jane shouted loudly into the large open space. They could here people gathering things and scurrying around.

"Boston police…..we are just looking for information" Jane shouted again.

She spied a young kid sitting in a corner stuffing a bag and approached him.

"Hey you…Its OK….I'm not interested in anything you got" Jane pulled a picture of the victim out of her inside jacket pocket.

"You know her? You seen her around here?" Jane asked him.

"What's it to you pig?" The boy answered putting on his best tough guy voice.

Jane kicked his legs "Listen you little shit…This chick has been murdered…She's one of you lot…and I'm trying to catch who did it….so if you know anything…spit it out"

"Oi! That's assault you know" The boy shot back rubbing his legs.

"Like I give a fuck…now did you know her or not?"

"Yeah…that's Crazy Carly" The boy said looking around to see if anyone could see him taking to the police. "She had a bunk on the second floor….haven't seen here in a few days. Went up in the world I heard…Got herself a bloke to work on for cash…musta been a dumb bloke"

Jane and Korsak asked around some more. They checked out the second floor where they were told she had slept but there was no sign of her stuff now and she was certainly not shot anywhere in or around the warehouse.

They did learn, from more than one source in the stinking shell of a building, that it was most certainly Liam O'Rourke that the victim was last seen leaving with 2 nights ago. He was the grandson of one Tommy O'Rourke. The man who once could have killed the love of Jane's life. Things just got a little weird.

"I wonder what a mob kid was wanting with a junkie? Surely that relationship would not have been approved by the family….you think that's it? Young Irish fell in love with the wrong kinda girl and got daddy got her killed" Jane asked when they were back in the car and driving back to headquarters.

"Could be….but they went to a lot of trouble for it. They coulda just dumped her in the sea or gave her an overdose not get her executed and leave her in the street. We usually don't find a body if they just want you to disappear." Korsak chimed in.

BRIC

"Hey…Did you find anything on your magic boxes Frost?" Korsak asked the younger detective as he entered the BRIC

"As a matter of fact….I did….so don't mock me old man" Frost replied smugly.

"Settle down kids….Tell us what you got Frost" Jane said to the room.

"Well I went with it being a mob dump and I managed to find her on some CCTV cameras the night before we found her. She was entering an exiting a building owned by the O'Rourke family"

"Nice job kid" Korsak admitted and proceeded to tell him what they had found out at the warehouse.

"Do you think we could get a search warrant for that building?" Frost mused "It all connects back to the O'Rourkes"

"Yeah…'l'lI go scare us up a warrant" Korsak left to talk to Cavanaghwhile Jane and Frost watched the footage.

Few moments later Korsak reappeared "We should have our warrant in an hour or so"

"I'll head down to the morgue I suppose then….See what that dick Pike has got for us" Jane grumbled but before she did so she stopped to text Maura.

Jane - 'Hey Hows the shopping going?'

She got a reply straight back.

Maura – 'OK got a lovely pair of red Chanel heels. Hows the case?'

Jane – 'I miss you. Case sucks'

Maura – 'I'll come see you when I get there. Won't be long'

Jane – 'Im going to see Pike for results. Cant wait :( The man stresses me out'

Maura – 'Enjoy xxxxxxxx'

Jane - 'Thanks Doctor xxxxx'

Maura – 'Well as your doctor I could prescribe a massage for that stress'

Jane - 'That would be great doctor thanks'

Jane paused and thought.

Jane – 'It's from you though right?'

Maura – 'Yes. It would be from me. You want?'

Jane – 'Oh yes doctor. I want very much :D'

Maura – 'Good. I shall see you soon xxxx'

Jane – 'OK xxxx'

Jane put her phone back on her hip. She couldn't help the grin on her face and bashfully looked around to see if anyone saw her. No one else was there. Thank fuck. The thoughts of a massage from Maura filled her brain as she took off down to the morgue.
