Doris gave her a look.

"I knew exactly where it was."

"You knew the building still had it," Mabel teased.

Judy knelt beside the box.

She lifted the lid.

Inside were dozens of neatly bundled folders.

Her pulse quickened.

She found the one she was looking for.

She looked up at Mace.

"Ready?"

He stepped beside her, his shoulder brushing hers.

"I've got you."

She smiled without looking away from the folder.

"I know."

For just a heartbeat, neither of them moved.

Wolf cleared his throat from across the room.

"Ladies and gentlemen..."

He grinned.

"The googly eyes have officially delayed the investigation."

Everyone laughed.

Judy rolled her eyes.

"We're working."

Trigger smirked.

"Sure you are."
