*Crime Scene*

Hank and Ana stepped out of their car, catching sight of Alvin a few feet away. Before they could walk over, Hank faced his wife and placed his hands on her shoulders.

"You sure your okay?" He questioned.

Seeing Ana like that had scared the crap out of him. He took her home after getting her to calm down and, after a good night's sleep, she seemed to be back to her old self again.

"I'm fine, Henry." She smiled, placing her hands on top of his.

Hank nodded, seeming to accept that answer. The Sergeants ducked under the tape, headed inside the warehouse, and over to their best friend. Alvin was looking down at a line of female bodies with a grim look. Seeing them, herself, Ana knew exactly why: they were all around Lexi's age.

"Figure the shooter was here to bring the girls food." Alvin surmised and Hank grunted in agreement. "But he got here too late. The ME says the girls have been dead for at least two days." He explained.

"Do we have anything on the vehicle?" Ana wondered.

"No, I only got a partial plate. Waiting to hear back." Alvin sighed. "The landlord says he's been getting paid, cashier's check, by a guy, a year in advance." He added.

"Well, the shooter ain't our guy, I can tell you that much. No businessman is gonna leave his investment for dead." Hank pointed out.

"Please!"

The three turned around, spotting Officer Garcia trying to hold someone back. He appeared to be Chinese. Hank walked over and brought the guy in. He crouched down near one of the bodies.

Through his sobs, he confirmed that it was his daughter, June. After giving him a moment to grieve, Ana helped him back up and over to the men where Hank proceeded to put a hand on the man's right shoulder.

"Mr. Chen, we're so sorry for your loss. Please, we're trying to help you." Hank pleaded.

"Your not in trouble. We just want to know who you payed to bring your daughter here." Ana assured.

"You know? We just want to know what happened." Alvin added.

"Yeah." Hank agreed.

"I paid them 30,000 to bring Jun over. I got a call last week that she was in the city. They wouldn't tell me where, and they demanded another 30,000. And I didn't have it." Chen explained.

"We just want a name." Ana demanded softly.

"Dennis Lee." Chen all but growled out.

"The Dennis Lee, who used to run Chinatown?" Hank asked in confirmation.

He received a nod in reply and the three best friends exchanged knowing looks with one another.

*District 21: Bullpen*

The couple walked out of the Office, spotting Alvin writing June's name on the board above her pictures. Hank dragged a second board over and Ana taped/slapped a picture on it.

"Dennis Lee. He's been on CPD's most-wanted fugitive list for over six years. He's wanted on more than 50 combined warrants, including firearms and human trafficking." Hank informed, gesturing between both boards.

"I ran across Lee back in Vice. He made his fortune supplying the South side with The Three G's: girls, guns, and gambling machines. All three he brought over from China in shipping containers." Antonio explained.

"So he thinks six years is long enough for the heat to die down, and now he's back in business." Erin surmised as Jay walks in from the Interrogation area.
