She wasn’t shocked that Clint Rust and Charlie Hancock were on the naughty list. They likely had a bounty out on them for who knows what reason.
For all she knew, one of them had the crypto key.
“What else did she find out?” she asked, “And thank her for me.”
Her voice came over the com.
“It’s no problem, Major,” she said. “I found out that Captain Clint Rust has a cabin that he uses to stay off grid. He was drunk and running his mouth and mentioned it. He was trying to get that particular waitress to come get naked in it.”
Well, that was good to know.
They at least had an idea of where to point this next, after they visited the two dead men’s homes.
“Can you guys see if you can get the coordinates and more on Clint Rust?” she asked. “I’ll take whatever you can find on him.”
Calyx didn’t hesitate.
“Copy. God. I always wanted to say that,” she said, laughing.
They heard Remington laugh too.
They were just glad she was assimilating into their unit. She definitely had skills they could utilize, and Remington wasn’t letting his new wife out of his sight.
Maura went there.
“Merry, can you keep looking at that house to make sure there’s no power spikes, and he’s laying low inside. I know we hacked the cameras in the neighborhood, but if Clint was already inside…”
Oh, Merry got it.
They didn’t want a wild goose chase in a swamp if the man was still in the city.
She would be happy to do that for them.
“I can,” she stated. “It’ll take a few. I’ll let you know what I find.”
That worked for Maura.
“We’re at the home of the first dead Marine,” she stated. “We’re going to go nose around to see what we can find,” she added.
Dakota’s voice came over the com.
“Tell my wife that if she so much as gets a hangnail, she’s staying in and I’m going next time,” he stated. “I don’t care if she is a Snake.”
Eve laughed.
“Calm down, sexy out of control man. I’m literally sitting in the back seat and minding my business. Zayn hasn’t tried to set me up with anyone yet.”
He sputtered, and she shut off her com.
“Men,” she said.
They all laughed.
Parking down the street, they checked out the house where the first marine had been offed. There were no cops there, but they could see the police tape on the door.
It was a decent neighborhood, and with nice places meant security cameras, and nosey neighbors.
“We’re going to have to go in through the back,” she said. “There are houses around it, and while we can block cameras, we can’t block looky-loos.
