The Marvelous Elijah’s Return

Chapter 39

Josh, stop!

When the door opened again, Ryan and Rookie stepped into the room, and Ryan shut the door before focusing on Elijah. “Boss, you sent for me?” Ryan asked as he

approached Elijah at his desk, Rookie close behind him.

“I need you two on an assignment. Bryan Checks is you guys‘ target. Within one month… I need you guys to find out

everything that the two of you can about this guy,” Elijah explained in one breath.

Quietly, Ryan eyed Rookie, smiling faintly at such an obvious challenge to their

abilities. Then he looked back at Elijah and said, “We will need to move out of the

motel then, Rookie and I.”

A slight frown tugged on Rookie‘s lips as he eyed Ryan in confusion, not sure where he was going with this. “We will need to do a lot of Stakeouts and surveillance,” Ryan explained further, “and it would be good to start moving somewhere we can have

easy access day and night to this guy, Checks.”

“I can find out where he stays.” Rookie responded after just a moment, a small grin playing over his face.

“Great. We are gonna need a car, Binoculars, Voice recorder to make notes, paper pads and pens to make backup notes… We are going to need a lot.” “I will need a laptop and a couple of other things.”

Seeing his men getting all fired up, Elijah smirked faintly and said, “Make your budget and I will make the payment… All in all, I need you two to be a team and get me

what I need within one month. Got it?

Ryan nodded and grinned excitedly, “Yes sir!” Then he tapped Rookie on the back

and said, “Let‘s go get our shit together.”

The sound of the front door opening drew James and Matt‘s attention to the motel entrance, and they were confused to see a Madam Jewel, clothed in a thick, fluffy coat, and Josh, walking into the lobby.

“Hello, how may I help you?” James asked, a look of confusion crossing his features as he looked between the both of them.

But all Madam Jewel and Josh did was glared around the place with a look of disgust on their faces. As if they didn‘t want to even be there.

After several moments had passed, James started to feel uncomfortable, and he
