Part XVI. From post #576 "Experience is what you get when...." "I'm here to see David Lee", Deputy Dawg asks of the nurse at the entrance to the recovery ward. "This way Deputy", the nurse responds. David Lee was shot in the left leg just above the knee. The bullet had fractured a bone and traveled upwards into the middle of his leg.. Surgery lasted about an hour and Lee would be leaving the Houston Metropolitan Hospital the next day fitted with a new pair of crutches for the next eight weeks. Lee looked forward to his visits from nurse good body every two hours. "I never met a nurse yet that didn't register", Lee must have told every nurse on the floor. The last thing Lee needed was a visit from the law. "Lee? You David Lee", Deputy Dawg asks as he sticks his head through the door of the semi-private room. "Do bald men come from Mars? Who's askin?" "Harris County Deputy Sheriff, I'm investigating a shooting that occurred at the R.E.B. cafeteria this morning." "I'm not in the mood Deputy Dipshit, leave me alone" "Listen pal, you'd better get in the mood cause right now you're facing robbery and weapons charges. It's either here or at the jail, and that's where I'm dragging your sorry ass if I don't hear an attitude change real quick." "O.K., o.k., come in and shut the door". "So Lee, it looks like you're our shooter. You wanna tell me your version of the truth." "Look, I was drinkin a large cup of R.E.B. coffee and relaxin when this guy next to the window starts to hold up the place.... you know a freakin robbery man. I try to get the waitress out of the way and she takes a swing at me thinkin I was picking her up or something. Anyway, I dove to the floor as this guy was takin his gun out and I see a gun on the floor. I grab the gun just in time to get a couple of shots off and prevent the robbery. That's all I know and if you don't believe me you can kiss my bald butt from mars." "So the gun wasn't yours? So where did it come from, the waitress?" "It came from this group of people about ten feet from me. You see, these people, two dudes and a chick, dove to the ground like me, only a gun comes flying out of the group, like it came out of their holster or something. So I grab their gun." "And proceeded to shoot two holes in the roof?" "It happened so fast, I guess I musta fired so fast that I didn't have time to aim. Anyways, I prevent the robbery because this guy he throws his chair through the window and hauls ass. I must have saved five or six lives this morning. But I don't need any kind of award or anything, I was just doing what a good citizen would do." Deputy Dawg shakes his head once more as he writes down the unbelievable story. "Two guns were found next to you. Where did the other gun come from?" "I don't know, honest, it must have been dropped by one of the other customers there." " You're still not off the hook Lee.......... You know a lady named Denice?" "Denice, Denice, let me think, why do you want to know about her?" "Do you know her?" "The name sounds familiar, yea, I think I know her, or at least I've heard of her. Why?" "What does she look like?" "The dame I know is, you know, average all the way around. Looks like Elaine from the T.V. show Sienfield. Small boobs though." "Do you know anything about a tatoo of a battleship on her butt?" "Nope!" "And you are sure she was at the R.E.B. cafeteria?" "Pretty sure" "Where was she sitting?" "At the table with two guys, you know, where the gun came from when they hit the floor. I don't know who the guys were. Why are you looking for Denice?" "She's a witness. And I doubt that she's going to know anything about those guns either Lee. If I find out you're not coming clean with me, you'll be in even more trouble. Got that Lee?" "Yea, if I remember anything else I'll call ya, yea I'll call ya." Lee grabs the nurse's button and summons a nurse. Deputy Dawg leaves knowing that he has interviewed two witnesses so far and both are lying. "Something's going on here and I'm gonna get to the bottom of it", Deputy Dawg whispers to himself as he leaves. "Next stop, that waitress. Probably the only level headed witness I've got", Deputy Dawg says to himself. As Deputy Dawg approaches the Sire apartments he gets a feeling something is wrong. Something is not quite right. Something is in the air....... no the air is still ........ so very still and smells muggy. The Sire apartments are named for their cheapscape owner and built with substandard materials and not up to code. If Sire did not sleep with every male on the City Counsel, they would have torn the place down long ago. Sire was always heard to say, "You wan't to inspect what? Inspect this !" Sire had a great body and ambition to match. Too bad she was so cheap. Deputy Dawg started to sweat as he climbed the uneven wooden stairs to the second floor landing - first his hands, then his forehead. He wipes his shirt sleeve across his forehead and wipes his hands on his pants. There is no reason to feel any differently about approaching an apartment with the number 38DD on it, but this time it was different. This time something told Deputy Dawg to get his gun ready ....... call for backup ....... don't go in there ....... be careful ....... something was not right.......... "knock! knock! knock!, Deputy Sheriff". "KNOCK! KNOCK! KNOCK!, Deputy Sheriff, I need to ask you a few questions". After the last knock the force of the pounding on the door gently pushes the door in from the frame about four inches. The door squeeked as it opened revealing the total darkness within. "Hello?" "Miss?" Deputy Dawg pushes open the door and takes a step inside. "Excuse me, the door was unlocked and it came open when I knocked...." "Anyone home?" "hello?" "HOLY SHIT !" End of Part XVI
