#Chapter 31
Run-Ins
At first, I didn’t know what Jackson meant by hottest lead. In my mind, what my mother said about their best lead being taken back was true. Derek was the person who would give up all of Mario’s secrets, not only to save himself from a harsher punishment but also, it would enable my mother to take such a dangerous man off the streets. But now he was gone and back with his best buddy, who knows what horrifying things those two are concocting.
Jackson told me to put what had just happened at the lane to the back of my mind for a second, but focus on what we were doing before we got Alison’s call. This did confuse me for a second before I remember, we had found the house which Mario had been hiding out undetected for who knows how long.
