BIA Ch. 123
Day Sixteen The nurse who took the application form looked at Isaiah’s face and confirmed once more. “The patient’s name is Joseph Cole, correct?” “That’s correct.” “And the guardian’s name?” “Isaiah Cole.” The nurse flipped through the multi-page application, her eyes scanning only the signature sections. “Have you heard the full explanation from the attending physician about stopping life-sustaining treatment?” “I’ve heard everything, and we’ve…-

“But you must have been surprised to find him in the mafia.” Was I surprised? Isaiah wondered, scrubbing his hair with soapy hands. It felt more like sadness. Did he decide to follow his father's path after all? Can blood ties truly not be overcome? Can a person never defeat fate, no matter how hard they struggle? All sorts of thoughts ran through his mind. “In a way… yes, that’s right. He did follow in his father’s footsteps.” “Exactly.” After thoroughly scrubbing his scalp,…-

Isaiah put a cigarette to his lips and took a long drag. But he couldn't taste anything. “Of course, the higher-ups haven't thought of connecting this to you. They know Bran pays special attention to you, but they believe it’s because you’re from the same facility. Plus, a slight sense of moral responsibility. So they think the reason for Bran’s sudden change in attitude is because he’s conscious of Chester. Because someone who was completely off the radar suddenly started making his presence…-

Isaiah was a little taken aback. Looking beside him, Mickey was also frozen with a bewildered expression. “Why all of a sudden?” Isaiah asked, trying hard to sound nonchalant. 「Just because. I was curious about my subordinate's face.」 “Since when was the FBI your subordinate?” He deliberately threw Bran's words back at him, trying to buy time, but it was useless. 「Why are you dragging this out?」 “What am I dragging out?” 「Is there some reason you can't show me?…-

Kestrel paused, his hand hovering over the beer can on the table. He blinked, staring at Isaiah for a moment before speaking. “This is too sudden.” “Getting fired two days before D-day was plenty sudden too.” “Ah, that’s true.” Kestrel nodded. As if finally able to move again, he took a sip of beer and put the can back down. “You worked well together for months, so I wondered why they would suddenly request a replacement right before the biggest job, just two days…-

“Isaiah.” Morgan rose from his desk chair. “Welcome. Sorry for calling you so late.” “It’s alright. I was planning to stop by tomorrow on my way anyway.” Morgan nodded and approached. He patted Isaiah’s shoulder as if telling him to sit first, then sat down himself on the visitor sofa opposite him. “The reason I asked you to come today is…” Morgan hesitated, which was rare for him. He even wiped his mouth area once with his hand. This was a gesture he showed when he…-

“What…?” Isaiah narrowed his brow unconsciously. “What does that mean?” Mickey looked quite troubled. His restless blue eyes clearly held the anguish of someone who knew he shouldn't reveal such inside information but couldn't help but speak. “It's exactly as it sounds.” Wiping his sweaty palms on his thighs, Mickey spoke in a hoarse voice. “On D-day, that's the day after tomorrow. Martino will strike the Kalisz family as they leave the church. To be precise, he'll hit…-

“What?” Mickey exclaimed with a startled face. “Wh-What are you suddenly saying……!” “I told you not to make me repeat myself.” Isaiah warned lowly instead of answering. As if pretending he hadn't understood, Mickey quickly stood up and threw off his suit jacket and shirt. Then, stealing glances at Isaiah, he took off his pants too. “Why aren’t you taking off your underwear.” “I, I have a girlfriend!” “So what? I have a boyfriend.” Mickey’s face went…-

After dropping Chester off at Cedric's house, he went straight to the Dolphin. It was just past six-twenty when he arrived at the bar. “We're a bit late. Is that okay?” Manny asked, following him inside the bar as Chester had ordered. “Doesn't matter.” He had called for a generous time anyway, intending to wait for quite a while. Judging from past experience, the person supplying the bullets usually passed through here between seven and eight in the evening. According to the bar owner,…-

Day Twelve “Nice.” Chester said as soon as he stepped inside. He hadn’t even gone near the window yet, so what was so nice about it? Isaiah was about to say something, but he changed his mind and just replied, “It’s okay,” briefly. Chester was the type who would make two or three excuses if he got even one word of criticism. It was fun to play with him when he was bored, but when he was tired like now, it was best not to bother him. “You can see the church well, too.” Manny, who…-
