"Don't make a big fuss." Flynn glanced down the hall outside and reminded him in a low voice, "Just tail them and keep an eye on things. As for that team from Zone 3, just turn a blind eye. They're with the team from Zone 19, and they'll be gone in a few days. Don't go looking for trouble."
Brooke thought of the bruised and swollen faces of the Special Security Team members and immediately understood. "Is the Special Security Team's current investigation the same case I'm working on?"
'If that's the case, then the fight that night...'
Seeing Flynn remain silent, Brooke's tone grew heavy. "Chief, there might be a female in the hands of those scoundrels. We can't just stand by and do nothing."
Flynn ran a hand through his hair. "It's probably not a real female. That team from Zone 19 brought a Mimic Mixed Species. Maybe they're trying to drag us into their mess. Just go through the motions."
Brooke recalled the scent he'd smelled and said firmly, "I'm sure it was a real female..."
