tried to tell you, kid,” Keller said to Cesar. He looked over at Frank. “He’s going to need to go to the hospital for that knee.”
“You don’t know what kind of trouble you’ve brought down on yourself,” Frank said.
“I think I do.” Keller looked at the pieces of the cell phone scattered on the concrete. “Tell Mrs. Miron I’m sorry about the phone. But tell her, and whoever she works with that I have the SIM card.”
Frank looked confused. “The what?”
Angela was out of the car, standing beside it. “It’s the little computer card that has the phone’s information on it,” she said, “including the contacts.”
“Tell her for me, I meant it when I said I don’t care about how she makes her money,” Keller said. “I don’t care about getting any of her friends in trouble. All I care about is finding my friend. That’s it. And to do that, I need to talk to the people he talked to. That’s all I want. If I don’t get it, though, I know some people who’d probably like to have the information I have. About Delgado, and Miron, and what’s on that SIM card. Think about it.” He turned and walked back to the car.
“I’ll tell her,” Frank called. “But these people you want to talk to…they do more than just move immigrants. You’ve made some very bad enemies.”
Keller turned as he opened the car door. “Well,” he said, “it won’t be the first time.” He and Angela climbed in and drove off.
“WELL,” ANGELA said, “that was…interesting.”
“That’s one word for it,” Keller said. “You do have the card, right?”
“Yeah.”
“Okay. We get another phone that uses the same kind of card. See what we can pull off the contact list.”
“You think that’ll give us anything?”
Keller glanced in the rearview mirror to confirm they weren’t being followed. “Probably not.”
“They’re most likely using burners,” Angela said, referring to the prepaid cell phones meant to be used a few times, then discarded so they couldn’t be traced.
“Most likely,” Keller said.
“Which is why you were provoking them. You want them to come after you.”
Keller just nodded. “Yeah.”
She shook her head. “You’re enjoying this.”
