One of Graham's theories, that perhaps the victims of the vampire attacks are being lured out from the locations they're dumped, had been one Reid had previously entertained himself but hadn't looked into very deeply. It's been difficult, working the case mostly on his own, though he's had Clank to help him where he can and Luke never fails to offer going out to investigate in the evenings. Of course, the after-hours method of investigation involves slightly more morally dubious methods, which Reid doesn't hold against Luke at all because in the end, the desired outcome is the same: the murders need to stop, and they need to stop quickly.
It's been a few weeks since the last body had been dumped, long enough for the Chief to insist that they shift their focus to cases that won't go cold, but Reid knows better without saying as much out loud. There's been a slump before and now that there's one again, it only means they need to work doubly hard before the body count gets more added to it.
Now that they're here, both of them looking awfully conspicuous considering how much they'd rather not be noticed, Reid has been scanning the diner every so often to keep an eye out for any potentially suspicious activity. So far, though, the only thing suspicious has been the stale bitterness of his coffee.
"You didn't interrupt my afternoon at all," Reid tells him, shifting his gaze to Graham and returning the smile. "It's good to be working any possible angles of this case, especially when we aren't quite sure what we should be looking for. Vampire crime isn't exactly an area of expertise for most." He pauses then, his smile twitching. "Besides, on a regular day, there's nothing to interrupt until it hits about six."
