Chapter 227

Drio gave me his Torture Time smile in response and blurred out. Ro jumped in front of me with a winded "oomph" as he collided with Drio, who flickered into place.

Ro grabbed Drio's arm, wrenching it up behind his back. "Not happening."

Double checking that Rohan had Drio secured and was calming him down from the bombshell I'd dropped, I moved to the far end of the rooftop and phoned Dr. Gelman to ask what I needed to do.

Gelman explained that location spells were misnamed because there wasn't a spell, it was elimination magic. Removing the distance between a single item and its source, like a hair and a person's head or a prized possession and the owner. It didn't work on compounds, so I couldn't use the Sweet Tooth. However, if the oshk had left any secretion behind in the crime scene room, that would work.

"What do I do with it?" I said.

"You ask Sienna really nicely. I'm going in to chemo and you can't pull this off without training."
