The room's atmosphere was piercingly heavy. "I want targets." The commanding officer in charged of the Jolly case slammed both fists down onto the table, then chillingly glared at the silent men and women seated around it- "Do your fucking jobs. Bring me people to kill." Letting his command sink in for a moment, the Quincy lifted himself off the table and left, slamming the door behind him as his did. After a short moment of silence in the room, the people began to chatter and rearrange their scattered paperwork in their folders and briefcases for departure. "Fifteen false leads can you believe it? The guy's a fucking phantom." The woman beside Sam remarked as she shoved her folder into her bag. "I guess this is what defeat looks like.." That remark touched a nerve, and Sam turned to look her in the eye coldly- "..." "...kidding. I was.. kidding." The woman packed her stuff and left promptly. She was right though, this was defeat. An investigation spanning ten years with little to no result.. While Sam only joined in the last year, for everyone else there was no other word to describe their failure in the current time-frame. Sam needed some time to think, so she sat and waited until the room was completely vacated except for one, who before exiting the door, held it open and turned back with a subtle smile to tell Sam something- "If it's worth anything to you, Inquisitor, I thought your theory was the best out of this lot." The theory of divisible personalities - an explanation for Jolly being witnessed at two locations at once on numerous occasions, plus his dictatorship-style rule demanded direct leadership involvement, a complicated matter to personally attend to when in charged of an international organization of this size... But in the end theories were useless until proven with solid evidence, and Sam had nothing but her intuition guiding her on at the moment. "Thanks." A basic acknowledgement with little to no emotional tone. Hearing it, the man nodded to himself, widened his smile slightly and left, leaving Sam to her thoughts. |
LAIKA OF GS!
