“I’ve never seen anyone so happy to get his hands on bones,” he admitted.
She was direct and to the point.
“He’s insane,” Gabby said.
Graham could see that.
Only, now, he had to give them some advice. The last thing they needed was a pissed off spirit trying to start some shit in the castle.
It was already stirred up from the construction.
“Before you both start, try to be incredibly respectful of the remains. Whenever people poke at them, or piss off Ceit, it stirs up the chaos here. Last night, doors were slamming, and there was music. So they are annoyed as it is.”
She reassured him.
“Tony deals with the dead all day long. This isn’t my thing, but I’ll make sure he’s reminded. We promise not to annoy the ghosts.”
While Tony was setting up cameras, and getting ready to start his job, Graham and Gabby waited.
And he was curious.
“You’ve mentioned that bones aren’t your thing. What do you do at the FBI then?” he asked, as he had Bark in his bag.
She was to the point.
“I’m a hacker. Need a million dollars deposited into your account?” she asked, joking.
He laughed.
Wait a minute.
“Is that a possibility?”
She winked at him.
Oh, it was, and she could get away with it, but she wasn’t that kind of a hacker. She was an ethical one who worked for the US government.
Then again, what government was ethical?
“So what do you hack then?” he asked.
She was honest.
“I find things that people want to keep hidden, like suspects, killers, and victims. If Elizabeth has a case, and she has a locked laptop, after we get a warrant, I get in and look around.”
Oh, that sounded less ominous.
“Do you like your job?”
She shrugged.
“There are good days and bad. Recently, I had to find child porn, and that was a bad day. It’s why I got a vacation. Elizabeth wanted me to recover from that.”
Oh, he bet.
“And to babysit me,” Tony said, proving he was working but able to listen at the same time.
“Thank you for doing your job,” he said.
