Heart of Midnight Page #4

---

I had no idea.

It is so sad.

Could you turn that off, please?

Sorry.

So who was working this machine?

First the guy I didn't know, then Henry.

Tom and the other guy

pushed me down on the floor.

They made me say things.

I love you.

How well did you know my uncle Fletcher?

Very well.

How did you meet him?

That's a long story.

And I'm supposed to be

asking the questions.

Nobody even told me he was sick.

Did he suffer a lot?

- Not enough.

-L'm sorry?

I said, I don't know.

Look, I'm going

to have to go through all these rooms.

I'll come with you.

Listen, don't take this personally,

but I'd rather go alone.

Why?

Because I'm finding it hard to concentrate.

Why?

Jesus Christ,

it's like talking to a goddamn kid!

Because you're very attractive.

Sure.

You're a strange girl, Carol.

Not so strange.

Fletch.

Hey, what about this room?

You haven't looked in this room yet.

Well, I don't know.

It seems like no one's here.

Why would there be?

Just looks so inhabited.

I know. Did my uncle have a kid?

Well, you might take a look at these.

Why?

To get a really good idea

of who old uncle Fletcher was.

I'm not sure that I care to know.

Is this yours?

No.

Well, I guess the dirty old cocksucker

never had the guts to use it.

Hey, what gives you the right

to talk about my uncle like that?

Does that answer your question?

This place makes me sick!

It makes me sick.

It makes me want to puke!

Uncle Fletcher

groping around in the slime,

that oily goddamn grin on his face.

People slipping

in and out of each other in these rooms

and out on the streets

perverts molesting kids.

And everybody's pretending that this

has nothing to do with that

or what happened here.

If anything happened here.

Which, knowing that

you're Fletcher's niece,

-is completely open to question!

Jthappenedl

I didn't want them. I didn't invite them.

I don't even like sex.

Now we're talking.

F*** you!

Thank you.

There you are.

I'm gonna go over to the builders' supplies.

- I'll be back later.

- Okay.

No no, wait!

There's a room up here,

it's full of magazines.

I want you to clear them out

then take out

all the machines and then paint it.

Before I go to the builders' supplies

or after?

Oh, god, how would I know?

You're the boss.

After, then.

Hello?

It's lieutenant sharpe.

-L'm in...

- Leave me alone!

Okay, okay.

I'll come back when you're feeling better.

Hello?

Hello?

Hold it.

Hello?

Hey.

Carol, what ledray was saying...

Was it true?

I have a problem with people touching me.

It's been that way ever since I was a kid.

Last year, I had a boyfriend,

he tried to go too far and I panicked.

And?

And I scratched him pretty badly.
