After New Year's Blast
Chapter Five
After meeting at the 12th precinct. Castle, Esposito, Sung Lee and Ryan were dressed in black hiding in different areas of the neighbor. They needed to be sure that they blended in without anyone noticing them. Geraldine and Brian were inside their house asleep.
They would check in with Captain Jose Anderson the night watch commander with giving him reports on whether anyone would be lurking around the grounds.
There was nothing to report accept for a lone vehicle passing by and back firing making it sound like gun shots were going off at 3 a.m. in the morning.
Castle was drinking out of the canteen with his hot coffee while offering some to Kevin Ryan having gotten back from checking the back yard. He turned off the small flash light so that no one will be able to notice it. "I don't like this one bit Castle. To actually think that Geraldine and her husband Brian is the main target to try and black mail her brother."
"We need to keep watch until the next shift comes on to watch out for them. I would hate to think that a hit man might have been orders to kill them both and no doubt try to plant evidence." Castle replied with taking a sip of his hot black coffee.
While he hands a cup to Ryan to drink. Meanwhile Esposito and Sung Lee found the basement door opened and decided to check inside on whether there was anyone inside. Pulling out their weapons holding onto them while using a small flash light to watch for the stairs without falling.
There was no hiding place to hide with nothing inside the basement. They found the door leading into the house was locked for which was a good sign. "Do you think some animal tried to get inside the basement Javi?" His wife says with caution and moving towards the door leading upstairs and outside.
"Possible! But there is nothing here now Sung Lee." Epsosito said with following behind his wife walking slowly up the stairs and seeing if the lock can be closed and they were able to with feeling better that no one will be able to get inside.
Meanwhile at least for this evening no one showed up. While Captain Beckett sent a team to keep watch during the day. Along with making sure that Geraldine and Brian would notice the police under cover watching them while leaving the house.
Driving away around 9 o' clock. Brian was driving his wife to see Doctor Ashland an therapist that she had been seeing the past year after miscarrying her first child. Geraldine mention the following to her husband driving around the corner. "I have a feeling the police are keeping a close watch on us to help protect the both of us from another accident."
"Yeah I know sweetie. I believe they were around late last night surveying the area. I was down in the basement earlier and noticed that the door leading outside was locked, when I had left it opened forgetting all about it."
"Thank god! The police are on their toes this time. I feel more secured this way. As for how long it's going to last? I have no idea Brian. Come on lets get to the doctor's office I feel wonderful today with talking to him. Maybe for the last time so that we can start trying again to have that baby." She says with seeing his face glow with emotion to finally be able to touch his wife in bed again.
