A trip across the river (locked to matt_m_murdock)

This was unexpected it really was. Ivy ended up taking a train to New York during the week to start looking into a cold case. She knew this was out of her jurisdiction but because of the connections the case wouldn't even make it to court. It made the lawyer sad really.

The killings had never been answered for. Six families dead. They sounded like mob hits to her and she thought it was an out of towner that did it. After all the killings may have been brutal but they were also clean. That pointed towards a few people Ivy was aware of that were in the mob but no one could ever really pin anything on them. They were too well connected after all.

That was why she was in New York. She was looking into getting a meeting with someone who had been involved with an old school mob hit man years and years ago. She had found the woman's name in some files that indicated this woman had been in Gotham around the same time as the killings occurred and had fled town after that.

She did know who to go talk to about this though. A fellow lawyer who had worked for this Ms Daisy. It had been over some kind of harassment case. Ivy didn't have all the details. She just knew that Ms Daisy had been an innocent woman with terrible luck. Now all she had to do was speak to the other blind lawyer in the tri-state area.

"You lookin' for someone, ma'am?" Nelson asks seeing the woman walk into the office, then looks back to where Matt had gone then back to the woman. Maybe he should go ahead and get Matt anyway...

"Yes actually," she smiles slightly. "You're Mr Nelson, correct?"

She was just guessing. He had seen her and she was looking for another blind person. "I'm looking for your partner, Mr Murdock. I was hoping he could help me."

She doesn't look the part of someone who needs help. She carries herself far too confidently to be in any trouble.
