Joe Trebble and the Bio Tech Conspiracy
Chapter 8: Dogs/Cars/People
Back to Chapter 1: A Hot Pink Car
The dogs barked as Joe pulled up in the pink Cadillac in front of Christie's house to drop her off. The poetry night had been canceled which left more time for Joe and Christie to catch up. However as the night wore on, Joe had to say goodnight for his busy day.
"Thanks for a wonderful evening" Christie said giving Joe a kiss on the cheek before getting out of the car. "And thanks for being so open and honest with me." Joe watched Christie head to the door and silence the dogs before going inside.
"Honest and open" Joe thought shaking his head. "If ony she knew." Joe drove off. There was one place he had to go to before he could rest for the night.
Soon Joe pulled his pink Cadillac into a used car lot with many other cars of the same vintage. Joe threw the large duffel bag of his belongings over his shoulder and grabbed the smaller briefcase from the back of the car. He then went to the back of the car lot office, dropping the duffel bag strategically on the way, and pulled out of the briefcase lock picking tools. Making sure no one was looking, Joe jimmied the lock and quickly hacked the security code.
"Way too easy" Joe thought as he made his way to a computer. Within minutes he'd hacked his way into the system and logged the pink Cadillac into the inventory. Joe dropped the keys into a pile of other keys, after tagging them, and discretely made his exit.
Picking up his duffel bag he made his way to the SPCA shelter near by. Joe knew better than to break in there, but this was to be a drop point for the briefcase. Walking nonchalantly around the building at a safe distance, so as to not get the dogs barking, Joe looked for the drop point. As he started his third circuit, switching his direction this time, he saw it; a broken air exhaust vent behind a dumpster. Checking again that no one was watching, Joe hid the briefcase.
With that done, Joe hiked to the Greyhound bus terminal. As the doors slid open, Joe saw the time; 5:58 AM. "This is going to be a long day" he thought seeing all the people already waiting for a bus. Joe found an empty corner, threw down his duffel bag and, using it as a bed, lay down to get some sleep before his 9:15 AM bus.
