Castle and Beckett were surprised to see the elevator doors open to reveal Mac and Stella.
"What're you guys doing here?" asked Castle.
"We're working this case, don't we need to consult with you?" asked Stella.
"Oh yeah. So this is what it feels like." he said to Beckett.
(Author's Note: for those of you who haven't seen the show Castle, he's saying this because at first he said he needed to follow Beckett for research for his next book series)
Beckett rolled her eyes at him.
"We were just going to the morgue, why don't you come with us?" She said the the CSI's
They made their way down to the morgue, to find Lanie and CSI Medical Examiner Stephen Hawkes.
"Why'd you call us down here Lanie?" Beckett asked.
"I noticed something suspicious about how she died" said Lanie "When you look at her, she seems fine, but if you examine her closely, it looks like there are two causes of death. Do you want to tell them, Hawkes?"
"Sure, we can't tell exactly how she died, but it looks like she was poisoned about a day ago, then hit with something hard, like a metal pole for example, before the poison could completely kill her. Therefore, she could have died either way, and there could be two killers." Hawkes explained.
"So we could be looking for two different people." said Stella.
"Is there anything else?" Beckett asked Lanie.
"Nope, not until I completely finish the autopsy." Lanie answered.
"Alright, call me if you find anything else useful." Beckett said to Lanie "Let's go back to the precinct." she said to Castle, Mac, and Stella.
Back at the Precinct
"What's this?" Stella says, gesturing to the murder board.
"That's our murder board, we use it to help us visualize what happens, with a timeline, and we lay out the suspects too." Castle answers.
"That's a good idea, too bad we don't have enough space where we work" Stella says to Mac.
"RING! RING!" Beckett's phone rings.
"It's Lanie" she says before she answers. "That was quick" she says.
