“Don’t I wish? I feel this case we busted has far reaching threads and we only severed the ones we could see that were right here. Look, I’m going to get Christine to give you a copy of our case file on this one, maybe you will see something we missed.” Megan held up her hand requesting a moment as she pushed the intercom button, “Christine, make a copy of our investigation for Agent Simms and he will pick it up when he leaves.”
“I appreciate that and I will go through it with a fine tooth comb. If I don’t find anything I might have to close this case as it is but, even closed, I am going to keep my eye on things in case something similar comes across my desk,” Oliver Simms said as he got up ready to leave.
Megan came around her desk and shook hands with the young agent again. “If I had known your name or had your cell number I would have invited you to the end of case party we threw the other night.”
“My loss, someone told me this morning about your parties and knowing I was that close to attending one won’t soon be forgotten.”
“You give me your card and, when the next one happens, you will be first on my list of who gets an invite.”
Oliver lead Megan out of her office as he handed her his card and said, “You have a friend in the FBI and if you ever need anything please call me.” Christine made eye contact with Simms and held it as long as possible then handed a copy of their case file to him. He gave both the ladies a small wave as he was leaving the office.
JJ had been listening out of sight until the agent left then he walked up behind the girls and said, “That is a plus plus, a friend in the FBI. You are one clever witch and your young apprentice here,” JJ indicated Christine, “seems to be learning the ropes. I swear Megan, you could put a spell on a dead man and probably bring him back to life.”
“Aw, he was easy, just a little wave of my wand and I had him under my spell.”
