It really moved him that Gabriel was so invested. A good person and good at his job. It made Dal glad that Gabriel's the agent who landed this case. He was working harder than any of the local cops had.
Without another word, he waved and vanished out the door and into the night.
It was still wet, but just a drizzle. A far cry better than the downpour in the wee hours the other day. Oddly enough, business was good on rainy nights. Maybe the johns felt more obscured by the rain or something; who knew? Dal was just grateful for the little awning over the window that he could duck under to stay dry.
Around 4am, Dal decided to call it a night. The visitors to his block were tapering off -- though in another hour or so they'd start picking up again with the 'quickie before work' crowd. He could make some decent money if stuck around for that, but the truth was that he was tired and he didn't feel like working for the inevitable few hours the morning rush would date. So, he made the trek away from the meat market to check on the building he stayed in: still locked. So he shot of a quick text to Gabriel to let him know the status.
