He’d watched Owen die and hadn’t said a word because he’d been afraid whoever killed him might come after him next. Now he wanted to meet.
I pushed away from the desk and walked out of the office.
Taco and Rowdy were still at the table, but Myth had joined them.
He looked over when I came in. “What?”
“Eli.”
Myth immediately stood. “He call?”
“Yeah.”
“And?”
“We’re meeting him Tuesday night.”
“Where?”
“Outside Waupaca. Nine.”
Myth nodded. “What’d he say?”
“Not much.” I grabbed my cigarettes off the bar and slid one between my lips. “He remembered something.”
“What?”
I lit the cigarette and took a drag. “Wouldn’t tell me.”
Taco frowned. “That sounds shady as fuck.”
“Thanks, Taco,” I chuckled.
“Just saying.”
I blew smoke toward the ceiling.
Myth grabbed his phone. “I’ll let Dave know.”
“Tell him to keep digging. Don’t tell him to stop anything because we’re meeting Eli.”
“Got it.”
I took another drag. “Just you and me Tuesday.”
His eyebrows lifted. “Eli’s rules?”
“Yeah.”
“You agreed?”
I shrugged. “He’s scared.”
“He should be.”
“Not of us.”
Myth nodded slowly.
