When he turned it around again, it was showing a ca was bad because the sun was low in the sky But it showed the Jeep pulling in up front near the flagpole There was a cop car there as well, erass
A , but the camera only captured the top of his head
Nathan leaned in, squinting, hoping to see a face “Who is that?”
Victor reached around, pressing a key to open another , another video It showed the inside of the school, near the front office, the time stamp in the corner a few seconds after the first video This one had a clear i in the front door
Nathan frowned “It couldn’t have been him in the Jeep when Dr Green and the others were attacked He was on the other side of the school when it all went down”
“Yeah,” Victor said “And check this out Do you remember the car that you said was there? You said Mr McCoy jumped out of one, but then another car was there That one drove off right after the sain
The screen changed video feeds when he pressed a button It showed the area behind the school, where the busses came in The car that had been in the lot on Dr Green’s side pulled in Mr Morris walked out of the school, got in the passenger door and they took off
“I can’t see the driver,” Victor said “But the car is registered to Mr Morris”
He had a second car? They would have recognized his norot hold of the Jeep?” Nathan asked “Are you saying they took it back from Volto?”
“I’ot the car fro with them In any case, why drop it off at the school?”
“It’d make sense that Volto had someone around and in the school on his side,” Silas said “Remeot all that stuff out there and set up without anyone else noticing He’d have to get so”
Nathan rubbed at his face, trying to coot a passenger in the Jeep with Volto We’ve got Mr Morris And we’ve got the driver of whoever picked up Mr Morris at the end there” He picked up his head to face Victor “You knoho ht know McCoy He drove in hoever was in the one car And he er side of the Jeep”
“I don’t think we’re getting answers froation for all the dirt Mr Hendricks had in a file about hied with a couple of things already to keep hi to tell us”
“Who can we get to visit him and ask him?” Nathan asked “He’s the only one ill know”
“Maybe we should ask Morris,” Silas said
Victor and Nathan twisted to look at him
Silas shrugged “He’s not under arrest, is he? Do you think he’ll talk?”
Victor closed the laptop and set it aside “I guess it is either him or try to find a way to talk to McCoy We don’t have another option here”
“We could show someone,” Nathan said “Maybe to theive it to the police”
“We can’t,” Victor said “They may tell the police we have it” He frowned “The problem is, he knows all of our faces We need someone else I knoho to ask But it’ll cost us favors Anyone got some?”
“I ht have a couple left,” Nathan said “After my dad”
“Saht have left I lost a lot with my brother”
“When I ht take a couple of favors,” Victor said “And thatto spare some I don’t knoe can earn any more at this point”
“We h?”
Victor picked up his bag and shoved the laptop in “We’ll check in with hiht be” He jerked his chin toward Nathan “Are you co?”
Nathan nodded and stood up He’d had enough of being idle and dwelling This was the first thing the rest of the team had co In a way, it felt like he’d grounded hiet out of it
Was he with them or not? “Count me in”
