Detective Byers leaned with his hands on the table. He studied the evidences313Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqTsbB3MY3w
from the murder of Ben Miller. Assistant Detective Chloe cleared her throat313Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkYt40b7Ed4
before she started speaking in order to attain Det.Byers attention.
“Ben Miller” she said picking up the shots of the crime scene from the313Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi2KyBs90FW
table, “The victim was found with a knife in his chest on Sunday afternoon at313Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3PjVAjR1fl
twelve.” she examined the photos then looked up at detective Byers, “On313Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEgneP4rwuO
Saturday Ben miller left for work at 8am, at 6pm he went to have drinks with313Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4NbxXshM59
his work colleagues.” she said while pointing at the screen playing the313Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqXzQSd2NTF
footages. “as you can see Ben went straight to his home at 9pm, he was home alone313Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5bV6yXXtEl
and no one left or entered the house.”
Detective Byers focused on the screen, “there is no sign of the killer.” He313Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW5KThNhsPe
mumbled.
Chloe gazed at Detective Byers, “Soon after the body was found, it was sent313Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcGMFWBtSRu
for inspection. We came to know that there were fifty-seven stabbing points in313Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvXQ87Er4im
the victims chest.” She said tapping her finger on the photographs. Detective313Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf9IsJ6b0bP
Byers took the snapshots and briefly scanned them.
“but almost two hours ago they sent a313Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsVtRiLJ1Bg
file from the observatory saying that the stabs in the body were with two313Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjD9ZL2Vz2w
different weapons. One was found on the body and…”
“And the other weapon was not313Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi7L3DD60se
found.” he said completing her sentence, “do you remember Stephan Cages case?”313Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr3GSImyETf
he frowned at the screen, “I don’t know why but these cases look alike”
“Yes, we worked on it two years ago.” she said studying the files, “but how313Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzqhOKUq8Sr
do they look alike?”
He ignored her question and said, “His daughter” he rubbed his forehead, “What313Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtZUzKbnBh1
was her name?”
“Lilly Cage.” she said facing towards him.
“hm…run a background check on her, let’s see what she’s got.” he straightened313Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCjzsvIawvp
back and left the door open.
“No shit!” she said to herself and heaved a sigh.

Mike stared Lilly for a while and said,
“I really, really need your help this time.” he said as he held her hands.
“Mike, I can’t” she wept, “you know what happened to dad.”
“Whatever happened, it was not your fault” He said wiping away her tears.
There was a long silence, Lilly sat looking at her hands and thinking about her313Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeeQBJJ5SkD
father. Mike was on his knees watching her breath slowly.
“I want to go home.” Lilly sniffled softly.
“Hm , I’ll take you home.” he said concernedly.
Lilly rolled down the car window. She closed her eyes and felt the winter313Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCgd7lemPI2
breeze on her face, she thought about the conversation between her and mike at313Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbFq6CP4yzm
the café. She knew she can’t do it, knew she can’t risk losing a near and dear one313Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡywjFXYaQug
again. Lilly’s phone ranged,
“Hello?” she said into the phone.
“Hi Lilly!” the caller said.
“Chloe?” Lilly said in amazement, “it’s been so long”
“I know right, you me working together, it literally feels like yesterday.”313Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDTzbz8kwmz
Chloe said warmly, “why don’t you think about returning.”
Lilly’s face dropped, “Chloe, let’s not start this topic.”
“Well it doesn’t seem like you have a choice.” Chloe said.
Lilly frowned, “what do you mean?”
“I mean that detective Byers who is here from California, he wants to meet313Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEPa9A8TGC5
you regarding the slayer of your father, according to him he thinks you could313Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEGPV1Xq7lk
be a little helpful.” She replied.
“Helpful for what?” Lilly asked in confusion.
“You don’t know” Chloe said.
“No?” she said still frowning.
“There’s a murder in town.” Chloe informed.
“What!” she exclaimed.
Lilly hung up on the phone and turned towards mike, she was shocked by the313Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡttZjiuETxn
news Chloe gave. Mike stopped the car and faced Lilly.
“What happened?” he asked curiously.
Lilly looked at her phone and then at Mike, “Murder” she said trying to believe313Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkyznwz5Gnz
what she heard.
Mike peered at her, “What?” he asked.
“There’s a murder.” Lilly responded.
Mike swore under his breath and leaned against the car seat.
“She said that the detective wants to meet me regarding dads slayer. Can it313Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL7afl21AuU
be the same killer?” she asked anxiously.
Mike glanced at her, “Can be” he said.
