Chapter 12 A New Year Same Old Murder Routine
Sung Lee and the others went inside the ICU unit, asking at the nurses station for a patient name Esposito.
The dark hair nurse at the station checked her records to see what room he was in.
Oh, Yes, go down that hall to room 103, he's the only there at the moment."
"Thank you!", Beckett says to the nurse, as with Sung Lee. While standing very close to her.
It was a slow walk having to feel like, it's been forever. Ryan opened the door to let everyone in.
There was a nurse inside giving him a little water, while checking on the bandages, when she turned to see the group.
Ryan tells the nurse that they are from the 12th precinct and Esposito's friends.
"Yes, of Course!, I am the chief nurse, Susan Davidson in charge for this section, I will ask you to not stay long, since the patient is still very under the influence of the medication that was given him."
"Thank You, we will be sure to follow the orders to the letter."
Ryans says, while watching Beckett with her surprised reaction.
Susan Davidson leaves the area for another patient. "What's wrong Beck." Lanie asked for clarity...
"That was Josh Davidson wife Susan." She said feeling some what upset, mostly because Susan is a beautiful woman that her Ex had married.
It was at this point Esposito says."Hey!, what's with all of the strange faces in this room" In a low tone of voice.
Ryan walks over to his partner to shake his hand, knowing full well his shoulder was in a great of pain from the surgery.
"How are you, Partner?" He replies with joy with his facial expression.
"I am a survival, Kevin, but thanks to everyone, I am here in the first place." He tries to move, when the pain hits from the right shoulder.
Beckett asks on whether we should call the nurse right away.
"Please Beckett, I don't need you to call her right now, the pain is going away right." He says in a soft tone of voice, but everyone can see that he was hurting a great deal.
"I think we should leave now." Lanie, asked the group.
"It's an good idea!" Ryan replied. "Buddy, we will be back another time to check up you."
"Everyone thank you for coming, but first I need to speak with Sung Lee for a minutes"
"Sure!", Beckett said to her long time friend.
They leave to go out into the hallway to wait. Beckett was looking around to see if she can see Susan around, and she does, she tells the group that she needed to speak with Esposito's head nurse.

Sung Lee was scared, but she needed to feel safe, now that her friend is getting better.
"Sung Lee, come close to me, I won't bite, I need to talk and ask you a question.
"Won't Bite!, I do not understand!"
"It's a saying Sung Lee, any rate Sung Lee, are you here in the United States legally?"
She shrugged off from his position, but he tried to tell her that he wasn't going to hurt her in the long run.
"No!, however I have been here in the states ten years, but I need to marry as a deal to keep me in the country, or else I would be deported back to my country." She says.
"But anything before we decide a course of action, we need for you to tell us all of the information you know in regard to Harry Win Duck, and all of his business dealings." He asked with determination to get the answers out of her.
"I will, Javier!" She moves over to kiss her friend. He returns it back to her, but she could see that he was hurting.
"Sung Lee, I know it's not right at this moment, once we find out what happen with the Scott Freeman case, that we need to do something about this situation with your possible deportation."
"I need to go, I will be sure to talk with Captain Beckett, plus I will asked someone to come in and make sure your all right."
It was at this point, she bends over to give him a very passionate kiss, while placing her hand underneath his blanket to give him a little bit of a thrill, even if it was just for a minute.
"Whoa!" He was feeling some what out of it after that.
She goes to open the door to leave.

She sees the group waiting in the corner talking, she tells them that Javier needs a nurse having to be in a great deal of discomfort.
Meanwhile Beckett was talking with Susan.
"Look Susan, I am just glad that he was able to find someone like yourself, and I know it wasn't easy for me to see Josh for the first time in years, after I was shot, he just could not understand as to why at that time."
"I could understand myself, since I went through something like that ten years ago." She goes to showed her scar lifting her shirt a little on her right side. "I got caught in a cross fire when I was in Vietnam for a special medical conference."
"But your all right now?" She says.
"At times I suffer with PTSD on occasional, and I assumed it must of been the same for you as well? She points out rather bluntly.
It was at this very moment, that Beckett phone beeps, telling her it's from the 12th Precinct.
"Yes!" Lt. Alverez calls her, since he's been helping out on the case.
"Sir, We just had a break through, we were to find a message with his email, saying that he was going to kill his wife, son and himself, because of the dirty dealings, he has been doing through his firm and Harry Win Duck."
"Where was the Email? She asked with concern.
"At home, the techs were able to get into the system, and there is much more!"
"All right Lt. Alverez, we will be leaving for the Precinct now, just be sure to have everything ready for me and the others.?
"Yes sir!" The end calls, she turns to let Susan know that we will be back to see Epsosito soon, you have my card, if any thing happens, please be sure to call us."
That is find Captain Beckett, but in the meantime I need to check on my patient." She walks away.
Beckett walks over to the group to let them know the latest news. "Let's go!" She says very quickly, while sure that everyone was moving including Sung Lee.
