“This way Garda.”
“It's Detective Inspector. Lead on Mc Duff.”
“In here, we only cut her down and laid her on her
bed. Nothing else was disturbed. The letter is on the nightstand.”
“Thanks. Who cut him down?”
“The porter cut her down. Will I send for him.”
“No not yet. I want to have a look at him, he has
changed hasn't he?”
“I..I can't say. I'm only here a few years. Looking
after her.”
“OK! Can I have a minute?”
Fanahan started to hum a tune, a song he heard
somewhere, and at time of thinking inside, he ran it through his mind, often
vocalising it as humming. He also muttered to himself, silently.
Cardboard programming he called it. Saying out loud what was worrying
him. Sometimes even finding a quick solution, that formed in his
brain and became reality.
You have changed Plonker, smaller, skinnier. Jees when
you fell on me in the street – you almost flattened me! How many
years ago. Five? Six? The wig fell off. Christ is that a wig? It's a
better one anyway. Did someone buy it for you Georgie, or did you
inherit it. If someone looks in and sees me smiling and talking to
myself they may try to keep me in here. Shay you are here to identify
Georgie. Is it him? Who the feck, else could it be?
He has changed, but as he was incarcerated in here –
it must be him. I need to get out of here quick and have a few
scoops, before I report back. Well a lot of people will be relieved –
the killer brought to justices. God's justice, if not man's justice.
Dead as a doornail – no danger any more.
Can't believe he hung himself. Did he come back to
himself and do it, or did he come back as he did it. Feck we will
never know. Good riddance. Hung himself? Now that's something I
always wondered about. They say when a man hangs himself, he gets a
big Langer, a big erection. No Shay you wouldn't – you wouldn't
take a peek. Sh-one-t I would. But what if someone sees me – the
detective was observed peeping up the dead woman's skirt. Jees no I
can't risk it. Crap you will never get another opportunity to find
out. Get rid of yer woman first.
