The BEANO Murders by Ross Mac Duncan (short novels in english .txt) 📖

made
a notation in his little black book, which reads “O’Brien and that
Solu? You’re going to meet your maker or baker today.”
An all points alert was sent all Tri-State Law Enforcement Agencies
& the FBI. The alert, via Boston PD Profiler, stated that Yevot is
also known for disguises, some of them not very-well done. His Twitter
and Facebook pictures show him wearing a Nazi SS Uniform.
The NYPD Bagpipers intoned "Amazing Grace" on the street. The Coffin,
draped with the American Flag, was borne on the shoulders of 8
NYPD Pallbearers. Officials from the Mayor to the Governor and other
dignitaries came in to the Basilica. Southie and Ashley went up to
the Church Sanctuary in advance, as Southie was to eulogize Mc Cue
and Ashley was to be the Cantor-Soloist, singing in Mournful Tone,
as to emphasize the Solemnity of The Mass of The Resurrection. Fr
Francis Mc Bride was chosen as Celebrant of this Mass, as parts of
the Mass were to be sung or chanted in Latin, or in the case of the
"Kyrie", in Greek. Miss Solu was to sing the designated prayers and
the Petitions of The Faithful.
Detective Paul O'Brien gave a brief but moving eulogy to the throng
inside of the Basilica. Paul was on the verge of tears as he eulogized
his friend of only a short time, as he knew that he had to do
this again in two days at Holy Cross Cathedral, for Maura Terrazzo's
Mass.
"For as Soldiers and Brothers-In-Arms, Brian Eamonn Mychal Mc Cue
was a Brother In Arms. In such fashion, he gave of himself, with
Love and Devotion, as well as Compassion. He was a devoted son of
New York and of his Beloved Brooklyn, and of his Loving Parents. Let
us always remember him with Joy and Love. Slainte'!" Paul sat down
in the Sanctuary, his eyes filled with tears. Ashley began to sing
the Responses for The Intentions of the Faithful(Let Us Pray To The
Lord. Lord Hear Our Prayer).
But during one Intention, Ashley went Off-Key. Her face was filled
with Fear. A Male with piercing eyes and goofy smile, took her picture
with a cell phone camera. Then the man took off for the rear of
the Church, where some NYPD Operations People were discussing a plan
for O'Brien and Solu. Instead of leaving via Amtrak, O'Brien and
Solu would take a Metro North Train to New Haven and then the Amtrak
Train to South Station, later in The Evening, or early morning.

Ashley recovered and sang like a pro. After the Prayers, she spoke
softly to Paul, mentioning "I saw Yevot, That's why I went a little
off-key. Paul, I'm Scared."
O'Brien, "We're all scared. Now we're even getting stalked at a Funeral
Mass."
At the conclusion of the Mass, Jim Mc Cue, Brian's Father, shook
Paul's hand, thanking him for the eulogy. He also surprised Paul
with this bit of information. "I knew your Uncle Jack. We were on
the Harbor Unit of The Fire Department."
O'Brien,"Thanks for that memory, Jim. It's been about 40 Years he's
been gone."
Paul and Ashley marched in the NYPD Procession behind the Bier of
Brian Mc Cue. Three Flower Arrangements appeared in front of the
Coffin. Brian was also a Boston Red Sox Trivia Consultant, so the
floral arrangement from the Red Sox, adorned the coffin. Someone in
NYPD had the NY Yankees Floral Arrangement, but the Yankees Floral
Arrangement, using a blue interlocking NY, was the Original Symbol
of the NYPD Honor Legion. The Chief of Operations then whisked Ashley
and Paul away to Manhattan to 1 Police Plaza. From there, Paul
and Ashley discussed the taking in of a Ball Game. Ashley asked Paul
about his Uncle. Paul told her that when he was born, in Brooklyn,
the Dodgers were 3 days away from playing their last Major League
Game in Brooklyn. Paul never got the chance to see "Dem Bums", as
the Brooklyn Dodgers were known as. Paul's Uncle died in 1969, before
the landing on the moon, and the Mets Miracle 1969 World Series
Championship. His Uncle was his Father's Brother. Paul and Ashley
went via the 7 Line Train to Mets-Willets Point to get tickets for
the Game between the Washington Nationals and the NY Mets. Tickets
were bought for The Pepsi Porch at the New Citi Field.
Ashley and Paul stood in the parking lot of Citi Field on the site
of 1st Base of the now demolished Shea Stadium. Both gazed at the
gleaming structure. Both Ashley and Paul have seen pictures of
Ebbets Field in Brooklyn. Paul heard stories about Ebbets Field from
relatives. Paul had even gone to Shea Stadium a few times in childhood.
The Mets were awful then as now. At 1st Base, both Ashley and
Paul wore Red Sox Caps, and a wisenheimer Mets Fan shouted “Buckner”.
Ashley and Paul chanted “1986” with rhythmic claps. Ashley and
Paul made their way into Citi Field through the Jackie Robinson Rotunda.
Both were awed by it. It was an evening of Major League Baseball,
even if the Mets were calling in players from their Short Season
Class A Team in Coney Island, Brooklyn, with the record # of injuries.
30
It was 7th Inning Stretch Time at Citi Field. There was a moment of
silence in memory of Detective Mc Cue, with singing of "God Bless
America"
by the Harlem Boys Choir. Then it was sing along to "Lazy Mary".
At Division in Kenmore, Jim Scallopino told Larkin & Lafferty that
Yevot headed to NY explicitly for the purpose of murdering Solu and
O'Brien. Yevot is in cahoots with Delgado and Benny Marstern is the
go to guy who relays these hit orders from Delgado, Estrada or the
Bernstein Brothers. Yevot despises O'Brien & Solu, because Yevot realizes
how thorough these two people are.
As far as that guy chanting "Buckner" to O'Brien and Solu, he introduced
himself as a New Haven CT Police Officer who was at the Funeral
Mass in Brooklyn. He was with 3 other officers at Fenway Park,
razzing the Red Sox with their rendition of "Sweet Caroline". The
other 3 New Haven Officers were also at Citi Field. All 4 spoke to
Southie and had information regarding Yevot and one embarrassing
episode where Beyonce' Galaranga had purchased Cocaine by New Haven's
Sports Arena. Yevot was stalking Asian Women. There were 8
Complaints about him. He had received 4 Summonses and paid the $25
Fine for Disorderly Conduct. All 4 Officers shook Southie's Right
Hand. All 4 Officers bowed before Ashley for her exquisite performance
at the Mass. All 4 recommended a great Red Sox-Themed Pub at
East 13th Street and 2nd Avenue called "The Hairy Professor." It was
the main pub for Detective Brian Mc Cue. It emulates the atmosphere
of Fenway Park, in beer, food and music.
It was the top of the 8th Inning as the Mets led Washington by the
score of 7-0, so Ashley and Paul took off for Manhattan's "The Hairy
Professor" via the #7 Line to Grand Central Station, then grabbing a
taxi to East 13th Street and 2nd Avenue in the East Village.
The Red Sox wrapped up a victory over the Baltimore Orioles at Fenway
Park, which appeared on the HD Screens at "The Hairy Professor",
in part owned by Tom Mc Manus, who was tending bar. The nickname for
those going to the "Prof" on nights when Tom is tending bar, is
"Thommies". He's being assisted by an Irish Lass named Leah. There
was a singing of "Shipping Up To Boston", a favorite song of Brian
Mc Cue.
Ashley introduced herself and introduced Paul to the crowd on hand
at 'The Prof', and proceeded to initiate a toast to the memory of
NYPD Detective Specialist Brian Eamonn Mychal Mc Cue, singing "A Nation
Once Again". NYPD Bagpipers played "Going Home" and "Amazing
Grace" & "A Soldier's Song."
31
The eyes of everybody present, were moist from the musical tribute
to Mc Cue. Tom Mc Manus told of the time when he was Bar Manager at
"Kazmareks’", a Red Sox Themed Pub at West 3rd Street and 6th Avenue
in Greenwich Village, which was deserted when Tom was canned. A huge
chant, to cheer up the denizens was bellowed, as "Fuck Kazmarek",
followed by Rhythmic Clapping.
It was the bottom of the 10th Inning when the Mets finally defeated
the Washington Nationals, 8-7. The Mets 'pen collapsed, as if they
were Arsonists. One more toast was done in Mc Cue's Honor & Memory.
Ashley and Paul then ordered a Caesar Salad, and a cup of tea, as
they would soon be on the move back to Boston.
Southie was reading the latest advisory on his Palm Phone that Yevot
went to the NY Area to attempt the dual murders of both him and
Solu. The information had come from the legendary insider, Jimmy
Scallopino, via Jim Larkin.
NYPD Directives for the safe sending home of O'Brien & Solu, was for
both of them to go to Grand Central Station, at the East 43rd
Street-Lexington Avenue Entrance. They would be met by MTA Police-
Metro North Branch, so as to be escorted to the New Haven Branch
tracks. Both Southie and Ashley arrived, only to find the Police
were engaged in a commotion. A man in his 50s was being arrested on
assorted charges, including disorderly conduct and soliciting of sex
in a mens' room. His name was Ivan Yevot. He was wearing his "T"
Uniform, possessed a bogus Iowa Police Shield, & was masturbating in
the bathroom stall, making a pass at an undercover officer in the
next stall.
Paul and Ashley asked about the arrested man. Paul identified himself
as a Boston Detective and asked about what the charges were
against Yevot. The answer was that Yevot was being delivered up to
Boston by US Marshals, in the morning. Paul informed Captain Larkin
& Paul's partner, Lafferty that Yevot was captured in NYC & Southie
was on his way back home, along with Ashley Solu. Metro North Police
then delivered Paul and Ashley to Penn Station, for an AMTRAK run to
Boston.
One thing for certain is that Yevot fell short of his goal by giving
into his passions. It also saved Paul's & Ashley's Lives.
"Deo Gratias!"

Chapter 7
The trip by AMTRAK was comfortable, a relaxing end to a tensionfilled
journey to a funeral in New York City. Detective O'Brien &
Ashley Solu are both relieved that Ivan Yevot is in custody for his
murderous rampage in Boston, as well as for all of his crimes and
misdemeanors in New York & Massachusetts. Added to this rampage was
Yevot's plan to murder both O'Brien and Solu, after stalking both of
them. Ashley and Paul both napped on the way to South Station, where
a Boston PD Escort awaited them.
Maria Delgado is in a restaurant on Atlantic Avenue, across the
street from South Station, having Bagels and Cream Cheese with Grenfell
Marstern and Marstern Tactical Aide, Barrette Adams, who comes
from a Well-To-Do Beacon Hill Family. Adams, a 14th Cousin of John
Quincy Adams, Seven Times Removed, is the 1st Choice for Police Commissioner,
as well as closely allied with the Yevot Communications
Interests. Adams is Counsel to Harbor Bay Wireless and Ivan Yevot
S’r.
The Threesome discussed the Hot Marstern Topic of Mental Health
Treatments for those who, in the opinion of the Administration, need
to be “Rehabilitated.” Delgado gave Paul O’Brien as an example of
one who needs “Rehabilitation”, because he could hurt so many “Innocent
People.” Sean Lafferty and Jim Larkin were also cited by Delgado
as those in need of “Rehabilitation.” As for Ashley Solu, for
her “Re-Energized Profession of Catholicism, helped by O’Brien and
those two serial Altar Boy Molesters, Priest Farrecchio and Priest
Fitzgerald, she seriously is in need of rehabilitation and Spiritual
Counseling.”
