Perennial
Chapter Seven
Mcgregor needed another drink before making his next move. Watching Captain Spanier and Sergeant Kindred at the table with the two detectives. He overheard that both Spanier and Kindred were going to leave with other errands that needed to be done for the club.
Meanwhile Olivia and Elliot watched them leave the club with McGregor at the bar, He decided to introduce himself to the two for now without having to go into further details.
"I understand you two are detectives of New York city and is interested in joining the club? My name is inspector Joel Mcgregor retired for the past two years after being injured with my right leg. I wasn't able to stay on the force because of complications with the leg." He will have to say with remorse in his tone of voice.
In unison: "Nice to have met you, Inspector McGregor. Did you happened to hear all about the double shooting on the beach?"
McGregor says the following to the both of them interested. "I heard from the grapevine that the two shot were private detectives given by the local Hawaiian five o police. Otherwise an investigation is on going with searching every angle of the two shot on the beach in front of eye witnesses. I must say rather stupid on the shooters fault?"
"I would say so Inspector. It's too bad we can't get involved since the both of us are on vacation and our boss won't take too kindly with working on an investigation here in Hawaii." Olivia will have to make mention with her husband agreeing to the fact of the matter.
"Well I do hope that you're going to find out where the shooter is located. By the way have you had the chance to get your tattoo's as part of joining the club?"
"Not yet." Elliot had to say on the subject as McGregor shows is tattoo on his neck to be the mistake of a life time with Olivia thinking back of the shooting. She didn't say a word to her husband with needing another drink to finish up her food still on her plate.
Meanwhile McGregor asked for there business card for his record and whether he wished to turn himself in to the police. Olivia pulled out one from inside her purse. As he noticed her small revolver inside the purse.
"Thanks. I need to leave now for home. I work for a private security company only a few blocks away from here. Enjoy the food and your drinks. Good evening." He said quickly with needing to get some fresh air with needing to head for the security company.
Elliot turned to face his wife and her expression with that look of hers. "What's going on Olivia?" He asked softly and quiet without having one of the customers arriving nor the bartender to hear her words.
"I understand from Sergeant Jeremy Kindred that only one member was able to wear the Tiger Claw tattoo on his neck and that man was McGregor. I have a feeling that he was checking us out on where he's going to stand with us. Or is thinking of turning himself in regard to the shooting. No one had mentioned to us about that the two on the beach were private detectives. Even the news reports had been keeping it quiet due to the local police needing to keep it quiet."
"So you think that McGregor might of shot the two detectives? But why would he in the first place Olivia?" He responded with asking the one million dollar question.
"We won't know this answer unless he's brought into custody by the Five o police. And I need to speak with the captain of Five o and tell him the story. I don't know on whether he's going to believe me or even you." She responded with finishing up her drink and food on the plate.
"Well then let's get out of here now and head for the headquarters and explain the facts." Elliot had to say all of a sudden anxious with his police blood deep inside his gut as with Olivia.
Driving to Five o police headquarters with asking on whether they could speak with Captain Danny Williams of ten years in charge in charge of the unit. He was in his office age 54 years of age going over the last of the reports from his team.
There was a knock on the door with one of the police officers a Hawaiian telling him that two detectives from the states wished to speak with him.
"Please come inside and tell me what is on your mind?" Captain Williams had to say to the two sitting down with Olivia to tell him the story. While Elliot was listening while watching for his reaction.
Moments later he says the following. "So you think this McGregor just might be the shooter of the two private detectives?"
"We both think so Captain Williams after talking with him at the club. He seemed really nervous as if he wanted to want with someone about it. We both think that he might want to turn himself in with trying to protect himself from the club members."
"So all of these club members are retired police officers?" He had to asked before deciding on whether to take over the case.
"Correct." In unison by Olivia and Elliot.
"Okay I will set up a meeting with my officers and discuss on how to go about getting this McGregor here without raising suspicion." He noted with his words to the two detectives from the states. "Do you have his cell number to his phone to let him know that we want to help with his protection?"
Olivia was able to give him the business card to write down the phone numbers. "Thank you for your cooperation. I will let you know with an update on the case and hopefully we will be able to get him off the streets before more murders happens." He responded with getting up to shake their hands.
