Chapter 14
Monday Morning
The Guardian entered Holy Crest Hospital through the employee maintenance entrance. He borrowed a maintenance uniform off a rack in the employee locker room. He was at the hospital to gather information. He left the locker room pushing a mop and bucket. He headed towards the emergency room. He saw two officers talking to a nurse on duty. He stopped a few feet away and put out the wet floor sign before he started mopping. He could over hear their entire conversation. The nurse told one of the officers that Maxi was out of surgery, but they weren’t sure if he would make it through the day. He hadn’t regained consciousness as of yet. The shorter cop called the information in to the precinct. The officers told the nurse to call Sergeant Jones if the patient regained consciousness or died during the day. The officers left the hospital.
The Guardian gathered his mop and bucket then he walked back down the hall. He returned his supplies to the employee locker room and left the hospital. He had gathered the information he needed. He thought about how Maxi and Adan had come after Katrina. He didn’t like the way everything turned out. They had changed their plan since the last time he had listened in on their conversation. He wasn't sure now if there were more of them or not. He had to determine if there were more of them in the crew. He headed back towards the precinct. Perhaps he could get some information from there.
