Slasher: the Escape of Richard Heinz Page 6
“Nope.”
“Nothing.”
“I weren’t even looking.”
“I saw whatever you saw, Sarge.”
Sergeant Young turned to Howard and shrugged. “See? You two go on back to the city and start on all that paperwork. I’ve got things covered here.”
“You’ll get Heinz back into custody?” asked Jessica.
Young nodded. “I don’t think he’s in any mood to run now.”
“Go on, then,” grunted Young at Jessica and Howard. “Get out of my bloody town before you do any more damage.”
“Thank you,” said Jessica.
Howard said nothing; he only nodded and hurried to catch up with Jessica. “That was not okay,” he told her a couple of minutes later, once they were away from the officers.
“It’s not about what’s okay, it’s about what happened. I kicked a serial rapist in the balls. Is that not justice?”
“That’s one word to describe it.”
“Only word to describe, far as I see.”
They walked back to the car in silence. Halfway there, Jessica spoke again. “You going to tell Palu?”
Howard thought about it, then shook his head. “I guess there’s nothing to tell. I just want you to know that you scare me.”
“I scare me too.”
Howard huffed. “That’s why I’m glad you’re my partner.”
“You looking forward to the next one?”
“No, not at all.”
Jessica punched him on the arm playfully. “Don’t worry, I won’t let you get shot next time.”
“You’re not going to let me forget that, are you?”
“No,” she said. “Never.”
