Once Again Kool Kat and I paid a visit to Eddie Lee,
who owned a very popular Restaurant and Bar in Chinatown that also housed an illegal crap game upstairs and who also was a known juiceman...Loan Shark...
"You two are beginning to get on my nerves....Absolutely not!!!...Not Scott Stanlison!!!.....That kid was into me for a measly 10G's....That's lunch money to me...But Scott Stanlison is into me for 100large in unpaid gambling markers...That kid was jobless....Scott Stanlison is a very connected attorney...I WANT MY MONEY!" said Eddie Lee...
"I understand that....but he has that car and probably Georgie Z.'s stash...If I can get him to give up that car...Will you let him walk on the debt? That car is brand new...No previous owner..You can get
over 100 large for it, Think about it.."I said..
"Do I look like I'm in the car dealership business? You said you found the kid and his aunt has him...He's safe...What do you care about Scott Stanlison..?"asked Eddie Lee..
"I don't...but three innocent ,depending on how you look at it ..people have already died behind this..I don't want to see a fourth...I give you the car...He's off the hook to you...He gives me the dope..I give it back to Georgie Z. and everybody wins...Nobody dies...The cops don't even know the car was stolen...It's not on any of their lists. You're free and clear with that car."I said.
"You think it'll work out like that?" asked Eddie Z.
"It could...It's up to you..."I said..
''Walter....Married Life and having a child has made Kevin soft...He's definitely not the guy I used to know back in the day...You understand how these things work." said Eddie Lee..
"I do...He does too..But why don't you humor him.."said Kool Kat...
"Why don't I not? Scott owes me 100 large...He's a big boy...he's old enough to know better...But guess what? Maybe I'm gettin soft too...I'll humor you Kevin...Get me that car...If it's in mint condition ..I'll let him walk on his debts....Knowing him, he'll run em up again..."said Eddie Lee..
"Fair enough...I'll talk to him.."I said.
II-
Kool Kat and I met with Scott Stanlison...
"Private Investigators huh? Who you workin for?" he asked..
"That's not important...but what I'm trying to do is to stop any more deaths....You work for Georgie Z.
You're his attorney...And you stole his dope....Are you crazy?"I said..
"I don't know what you're talking about.." he said..
Kool Kat laughed...
"Somethin funny man?" asked Scott Stanlison...
"Man, if you knew the trouble you're in....Wake up stupid....Georgie Z. is nobody to play with...Did you see or hear about what he and his stooges did to Chico Carilla and those two guys? They broke everyone of their fingers...They burned cigarettes on their skin...and then they shot them to death..We tryin to help you.."said Kool Kat...
"He'll do worse to you..." I said..
''So what do you want?"asked Scott..
''Eddie Lee said he'd let you walk on your debt if you give him the car.. You turn the dope over to us and we give it back to Georgie Z...Everybody wins...Nobody gets hurt and he never needs to know you were the one who took his dope.."I said..
"First off....I'm not givin up that car...and second off. I already sold that package.....I've got Eddie Lee's money on me plus extra money....I'm not giving up this car...I'm not scared of Georgie Z. I know things that will have him behind bars for the rest of his life...I'm his Attorney don't forget."said Scott Stanlison..
I sighed...
"I hope you know what you're doing."I said.
"Oh I do...but thanks for the heads up..." said Scott.."See you guys.." he said..
Outside Kool Kat looked at me..
"What do we do now?" he asked..
"It's done..."I said.."I figured it might go down like this...Watch and wait.." I said..
III-
And in Chinatown...Sometime later...
"Georgie Boy...How nice to see you.."said Eddie Lee..
''What's Up Eddie..?" asked Georgie Z..
"That lawyer of yours...Scott...He's the one who has your dope...I got it on good word that he commissioned those guys to steal that car with your stash in it..." said Eddie Lee.
"I heard he was into you for 100K...Why are you tellin me this...You know I'm gonna kill him?" said Georgie Z.
"He paid me what he owed me...We are all square..I don't like him anyway...It's no skin off my nose..Just thought you'd like to know is all."said Eddie Lee..
"Thanks....I hope I get to him before he sells off my dope..."said Georgie Z. Georgie Z. instructed one of his men to give Eddie Lee an envelope..An Envelope filled with 200K...
"Thanks Again my friend...I'll remember this favor."said Georgie Z.
Eddie Lee laughed..
"Thank You....This ought to be rich.."he said.
IV-
Scott Stanlison stood out on his terrance catching a bit of fresh air , when his door came of the hinges..
He turned around in shock....
"Georgie?? What's up?" he said..
"You steal from me Scotty ? You steal from me,Like I'm not gonna know about it???...Where is my package..??"screamed Georgie Z..
"Yo dude...I don't know what you're talkin about..."said Scott..
One of Georgie's goons shot Scott in his side...
"ARGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!" he screamed..as he fell against the wall..
"Now I'll ask you again...Where is my package?" screamed Georgie Z..
"Man what are you doin...?" screamed Scott who was in extreme pain...blood was pouring out of his side...
'You, You shot me man!!!" he screamed...
His other goon shot him in his arm.....
"Arghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh! You bastard.....OHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!Is this what you did? You killed Chico and them didn't you?"Scott cried out..
"I sure as hell did kill them... and I'm gonna kill you!" screamed Georgie Z..
''Drop em Georgie...!!!You're all under arrest!" screamed Lt. Sissy Van Buren
and Detective Sgt. Eddie Colletti of Auto Theft...who had heard and saw the entire exchange and burst in with glocks drawn!!
"GET EM UP!! ALL OF YOU...GET YOUR HANDS UP!!!!" said Detective Sgt. Eddie Colletti ,who had his glock just inches from Georgie Z.'s face...
A squad of policemen, armed with riot pump shotguns were in the hallway....They came in slowly...Guns ready....
Georgie Z. and his two goons were no fools...They dropped their weapons and raised their hands in surrender...
Georgie Z. glared at Scott, who had now fallen to the floor...blood pouring out of his side and arm like a siv...
I walked in with Kool Kat...
I looked at Scott Stanlison on the floor, bleeding profusely.....writhing in pain..
"You'll live." I said..
"Thanks for the heads up friend...We just cleared three murders."said a jubilant Sissy Van Buren..
"And I just recovered a car that I didn't even know was stolen...Thanks Kev."said Sgt. Eddie Colletti of Auto Theft...
"No problem..." I said..
Outside Kool Kat looked at me..
"You figured that Eddie Lee might not play ball didn't you?" he asked me..
"Yeah...I also figured Scott Stanlison might not play ball either..So I planted a powerful micro-camera in his loft while we were talking.." I said.
"But how could you count on Eddie Lee tipping Georgie Z. off?" asked Kool Kat..
"I knew he would as soon as we told him Scott stole that trap car and had the stash....Eddie Lee likes money...Georgie Z. put out a big reward for information on or the return of his stash...Like I said , Eddie Lee likes money...Despite the fact that Scott Stanlison paid him off and squared himself with him already, he didn't mind seeing him get his lumps.....What was wrong with making a little more money too? Eddie Lee got a double pay day."I said..
"You know Eddie Lee is a bad apple....A Nasty piece of business as Gus would say...One day he's gonna get his."said Kool Kat..
"Yeah...One day he will...but not today Kools....Not today..." I said.
EPILOUGE-

"I can't seem to get rid of you Kevin..You must really like the food here.."said Eddie Lee..He spied Sepia and Kimmie..
