The Killing Gene Page #4

your twin brother.

How much pain will it take

before you kill someone you love?

So, l'm all wired

up to Eddie, right...

l flip the switch, he's toast.

Before that he tortures you,

cuts you open,

cuts off your dick if he has to.

Love you, Eddie, but l am gonna

flip the f***in' switch, man!

l don't think our guy is gonna stop

till he gets to the end

of the equation.

l need a sandwich.

Like that thing, man.

One day...

you gots nobody.

Danny...

l think it's her.

l think it's Jean Lerner.

F***in' Pierre, man.

Yo, what's up?

Alright.

Eddie!

Gotta show you something.

Gelb's only had three assistants

in four years

and one of them's on our database.

What for?

- Victim. In a rape and murder case.

Jean Lerner.

Yeah. It was my case.

Wesley Smith and Jamal Osman

were part of that gang, right?

Raped her and murdered her mother.

Those two plus Pierre Jackson,

Daniel Leone and a woman,

Elly Carpenter.

Elly Carpenter, the girl

with the kid in the crack house.

Taking on guys like that,

she'd have to be f***ing Wonder Woman.

So, what happened, Eddie?

All of them walking free...

What the f*** happened with forensics?

Contaminated.

All of it?

All of it!

But you did get a confession

from Jamal Osman.

Corelli beat the crap out of him

to get it, so it was useless.

Those a**holes!

What they did to those women

you can't believe.

Eddie, we should get a warrant!

She's still living here.

She drew illustrations

for children's books.

She was living here

to take care of her mother.

Those bastards!

They didn't even steal a thing.

No point, just for kicks.

Cut her.

Snapped some fingers.

Raped her with a bottle.

A broken bottle.

Tortured her for four hours.

Then they did her a deal.

They'd stop and leave her in peace

if she'd just tell 'em

to shoot her mother.

Eddie, look at this.

Yeah?

Hi. Eddie?

lt's weird isn't it?

To talk again?

Jean?

l've been thinking a Iot

about what l'd say.

Well, l guess Gelb

explained some of it.

There is a species of wasp

who lays her eggs

in a living caterpillar.

The Iarvae eat the caterpiIIar

from the inside out.

Organ by organ.

Who's next, Jean?

Who're you gonna test next?

Can you imagine the agony

the caterpillar is in?

But the wasp doesn't care.

Maybe that's almost beautiful.

lt's motherhood.

Call Corelli.

Tell him to send patrol cars

to Elly Carpenter's.

And l want 24-hour uniforms

on Jackson and Leone

and the tapes from these cameras!

Yeah, l need Forensics

at 4970 Richmond...

Danny, it's me. Where are you?

l'm still on the block.

Go straight home. Lock your door.

Don't open it to anybody but me.

l was right.

It's about the Lerner woman.
