Bab 72: Track: XXII & XXIII

"Okay, what the hell is happening now?" Chyler asked, seeing her partner just open her backpack and hurl a bottle of Jägermeister from it. "Aria, for hell's sake!"

Callaghan didn't reply, she just chugged from the bottle like she was drinking a damn lemonade. She closed her eyes, grunted, and then chugged again.

"Callaghan!" Toussaint caught the bottle and took it out of her hands. Aria opened her eyes, glowing and teary, like she had been already drunk, even if that was entirely impossible. Chyler sighed, crouching by her side. "Aria, what's happening? Do you know that guy?"

"Do I know him?" she scoffed, reaching out for the bottle again, but Chy's dodge was too smooth for that. "Of course I do. He was my sister's boyfriend back in the day. And I think he might…"

"Blame you for her death?" Toussaint froze and her partner caught the occasion, swiping the booze from her hands.
