Dr Hodgins 's office The next day
Hodgins sat at his desk calculating the time of death of each of the victims no conspiracy theory had come into his head about the case yet .
In his office lay thousands of bugs and the rats he managed to catch from the warehouse.
He had tried to swab for particulates but was not successful he took one dead bug and analyzed it under his high resolution microscope and tried to separate species while quickly looking at his thick zoology manual but nothing came into light.
He had obtained blood from the rats at the warehouse but there was nowhere to tell which blood belonged to the victim and which is the rat's.
He looked bat the case file that Cam had placed on his table earlier and saw what shocked him.
Dr Vasco his college roommate was a prime suspect he just sit there shocked but decided to keep it a secret from the rest of the team.
The FBI had strict rules that anyone related in any way to a suspect should not work a case since
This would compromise the results of the investigation to a jury.The jeffersonian being a federal institution he had to abide by the rules or his entire career would be on the line.
The Bone Room
"Dr Brennan I managed to reconstruct the fractures to the cranium I also found that the victim had additional sets of teeth and a loose mandible which suggests that the victim may have undergone multiple dental surgeries."
Wendell confidently informed Dr Brennan the current state of the case.
Due to the large number of victims additional interns had to be allocated and Wendell felt a lot of relief due to less energy to satisfy the highly respected forensic anthropologist.
"Good work Mr Bray now Angela can identify the victim!"
Brennan quickly took the skull to Angela.Angela's office
Angela once again typed the victim's unique traits and let the device compare the results to the hospital dental surgery records.
"This will take a while the computer has to compare the results to the record of every hospital in the world"
Angela said with a resigned tone.
"It's been a while since we talked how's Hank and Christine" She asked offering Brennan a seat at the sofa.
"There okay Happy to go to school soon "
Brennan said taking a seat
"How are things between you and Booth "
"They are in fact improving since the death of Sweets"
Brennan finally answered with a smile she knew Booth very well and knew that their relationship was at it's peak"
"Enough about me how's Michael Vincent ?"
"Ah just the same naughty boy causing us lot of trouble"
"I'm just so grateful that our kids have come this far"
Brennan answered their conversation was cut short when the machine identified the victim.
"Oh our Vic's name was Cardigan Nelly ,28 ,she lived with her parents Harold Nelly and Grace Nelly here in DC
"Angela declared looking at the machine .
I'll tell Booth"
Brennan left leaving Angela's office.This was the hard part about any case telling the victim's family the devastating news of their loved one's death .
Booth hated the part but his wife always assured him that this was crucial to bringing the killer to justice.
Booth and Brennan arrived at the parents residence within half an hour they parked their SUV in front of a huge mansion believed to be the house of Cardigan 's parents."I just don't understand why they never reported their daughter missing"
Booth told Brennan as they made their way toward the front porch.
They rang the bell of the beautiful door and waited for an answer when a middle aged woman opened the door for them.
She looked like she may be the nanny
Brennan scrutinized and evaluated the woman before like she usually did with all potential suspects looking at her height , weight and the size of her phalanges and metacarpals remembering the injuries Cardigan had on her body.
She concluded that she wasn't strong enough to cause such severe trauma and damage to bone.
"FBI special Agent Seely Booth " Booth finally introduced himself after a long graveyard silence.
"This here is my partner Dr Temperance Brennan were here to see Mr Nelly"
After looking at Booth and Brennan for a long time, she finally ushered them in .
"Mr Harold,Mrs Nelly these people are here to see you there with the FBI"
The nanny declared and then went to the kitchen leaving them alone .
Harold Nelly was a tall middle aged woman with long black hair while his wife was shorter than him and had Blonde hair.
" What's this all about" Harold Nelly asked with a southwestern accent.
"Your daughter was found dead at the grey park yesterday morning. We're very sorry for your loss "
"How can this be are you sure it's her"
"We are certain it is her "
Booth spoke sympathetically with her parents.
"And you are?" Harold asked Brennan.
"Forensic anthropologist from the jeffersonian."
Brennan said confidently.
"I don't understand the significance of that"
"I am called when a victim is cute decomposed to identify"
Brennan said making contact with Harold Nelly.
"Oh God!" Grace Nelly burst into escalating sobs clinging on her husband's coat."Once again , we are very sorry for your loss please cooperate with us to bring the murderer to justice"
"Mr Nelly we wanted to Know why you didn't report your daughter missing yet she had been dead for three months"
"We had sent her to Maryland to study but she cut off all communication with us since she did not like the idea and we forced her how stupid of us "
Grace replied shedding tears.
"My poor girl!"
"Do you know anyone who could have wanted to hurt her"
Booth asked.
"Not that we know of" Harold replied.
