out his buck knife, Little Buck, and pressed it to her thigh, as he put a finger to his lips.
“Teaser?” the girl asked, quieted.
“Loki,” he whispered.
She started crying when Little Buck made the thin red line. Follow the plan, he reminded himself. Lucky for her he was the most careful man in the world.
CHAPTER SIX
Corey got to The Ave before 9:00 a.m. The fall air was blowing cool, moving toward cold. Even so, University Way was already humming. Kids, including homeless and transient teens, hung out in front of ice cream parlors, fast food stops, clothing stores, even the old movie theater. Shopkeepers were opening up, sweeping away leftovers from last night’s street life.
Corey was looking for Johnny Boy. This fall, JB’s “squat” was in an abandoned garage, not far from the Ave. Johnny Boy was a student of housing options for street people. He knew the ins and outs of every youth center, every shelter—what time you had to show up, where they had the best food, what nights, and so on.
