Shadows Of Grief

Chapter 13

Karl was not my biological father he was more like a godfather. I worked with him for few years and got really connected with the man. He was with me at my hardest time not only in work but in personal life as well and there's no doubt he was the reason I could stand at this level. Father Karl was Known for his unconventional methods. His

looks didn't match as of a cop, long hairs big moustache, full beard moreover his habit of booze drinks made him look more like a gangster. But he's the best in the department famous for his way of work which could help me with this case a lot. I extracted my phone from pocket and dialled his number.

''Hello!" He said picking the phone.

"Father Karl''

''Oh! Mclerry I'm glad I'm really glad you called so how you're doing?'' Father Karl's voice was enthusiastic since I met him and I was dead sure he was on his life saving d**g 'The Booze'.

''I'm really good and you high again.'' I said.

''C'mon Mclerry I'm not high I'm on life saving mode.'' He said with a laugh.

''Yeah I know that anyways I need your help.'' I said

''Anything for you Mclerry just spit it out.'' He said in his typical confident voice.

''Look Karl, there's man called Albus you need to send him to me. He is currently on a flight to fortunately California.'' I said.

''OK! But what happened?''

''Apparently, he seems to be involved in a heist of almost 10.million dollars.''

"b****y bastard!'' He exclaimed.

''Yeah! but the bottom line is we don't have any arrest warrant so it needs to be done secretly.'' I said. There was a little silence on the other end. I guessed he was contemplating the facts.

''Who needs a b****y warrant!, don't worry mate you will get your bait send me the details.'' He said again in a typical Karl

voice.

"Thanks I'm sending you the flight details and his pic.''

''Great I'll update you soon I got something.'' He said. The phone hung up and I sent him all the details of flight with his photo. I saw Rachel who was not very happy with my

decision. She liked the orthodox way getting a warrant and then chasing but the situation here was different.

''Let's go home and have some rest and don't worry we gonna get him tomorrow.''

''I hope" Rachel said.

My phone rang it was Paul the forensic man.

''Hello'' I said.

''Hi Mac have some bad news here the prints neither match with any staff member nor it has any previous records.'' He

said.

''As expected, don't worry you will get a match tomorrow.'' I said and hung up the phone.
