"Is it urgent?" Lauren asked since she was on her way to her work."Yes!""Okay. Let's go inside the house we will talk there, " Lauren replied and invited Dave inside the house.Lauren's work would start in an hour and a half, she just wanted to go there early. Since she had nothing to do that is why she was always coming to work early. But since Dave needed to talk to her about something, and he said that it was urgent, she would just talk to him first before going to work."So what is the urgent thing that you wanted to say to me?" Lauren immediately asked."I've come to one of the trials of the criminal and found out who was behind the illegal boxing match, " Dave said.Dave wanted to help Lauren out on her investigation on the illegal underground boxing match. Since she was helping him out as well, he thinks that he would tell her everything that he knew."What did you find out?" Lauren asked and listened closely."So this lawyer has defended two serial murderers at the trial
"Now get out!"Following this scream, a man stepped out of the Commissioner's office, and a file was also thrown out at him, which hit him directly in his chest."And listen, Walters! This is your last warning. I am giving you an ultimatum of one month– if you can't improve your performance, I will suspend you from field duty and put your ass on a desk job! Do you understand?"Dave Walters nodded as he took the file and zipped up his police jacket, after being scolded by his supervisor for his low arrest record. The entire precinct was happy with their quarter yearly report, but Dave wanted to leave early so that he could spend the rest of his evening in a pub, drowning his sadness in cheap beer. Just as he reached for the door, a group of his colleagues surrounded him, smirking and taunting. "Hey, Dave, leaving so soon? Please tell us, do you have an appointment with the President?" "Or are you leaving early because you want to go somewhere important… oh! Right, are you late to y
[Congratulations, host, on binding the system. You have received a Newcomer's Gift x1. Would you like to open the Newcomer's Gift now?]Without giving him much time to process what was happening, another message arrived in his mind. At the same time, there was a warm feeling coursing through his entire body, making his hairs stand on end. It was like… a supernatural force was connecting with every molecule of his body and mind. Although he had his doubts about what was going on, Dave had a feeling, almost like an instinct… that this would definitely not be harmful to him.After all, he might not know all the benefits yet, but he couldn't see any dangers in this. This is when he remembered the question about the gift, and he shrugged, thinking in his mind, "Sure, let's open the gift. Why not?"To his surprise, the system responded to his thoughts as well, and the female voice echoed;[Congratulations! You have unlocked one item: Hidden Criminal Search!]By now, Dave was getting more
The receptionist seemed quite shocked and a little scared to hear that there was a high-profile criminal in their hotel. So she stepped back, wisely deciding not to question them after that point.Dave confidently led his colleagues to the elevator, and some questions began to appear in their mind… Most of them were suspicious about what Dave's real motives were, because even though the receptionist had not asked them for any documents, they couldn't exactly arrest anyone without a warrant!It seemed like he was being vague on purpose. Was it his plan to take advantage of his position and his authority to ruin Julia's wedding?As they reached the fifth floor and Dave started to walk towards the ballroom doors, one of the officers decided to speak up;"Walters, just be honest. Are you just trying to interrupt their ceremony because you want revenge!?"Because of the courage of one person, everyone else also suddenly felt bold enough to speak up."Yeah, we decided to come with you as y
On hearing Dave's bold claim that he was not there for her, Julia felt like someone had poured gasoline all over her and set her on fire.During the five years of their relationship, he used to dote on her completely, rushing to fulfill her every need before the words left her mouth, and praising her endlessly. And now, all of a sudden he was calling her self- obsessed? What did he mean, he wasn't here for her? "What is the meaning of this? You dare to show up at MY WEDDING, and then claim that it's not about me? Then, who is it about? Are you here to celebrate your fucking birthday–""I am here on important business."The guests, who were concerned till now, were slowly getting more and more intrigued by the drama. At first, they were scared and concerned about what was going to happen, but now they felt like this was turning out to be quite an unexpectedly entertaining ex- boyfriend drama. "In the movies, the hero always makes an entry at the last moment, and takes the heroine w
Thomas Kennedy, Julia's father, stepped on the stage, ready to deal with whoever had the guts to spoil his daughter's wedding ceremony."Dave Walters! Is this a joke? You know damn well that you can't abuse your authority in this way!""Daddy!" Julia suddenly ran towards her father, clutching his arm with a pitiful expression. She whined,"Daddy, he is just jealous because he is a loser whom I dumped! And now, he wants to take revenge from me by embarrassing our family in front of all our guests!"Thomas glared at Dave, and if he could shoot missiles through his eyes, Dave would already be on his journey to the afterlife. Seeing that Julia's family was getting riled up, Noah also decided to open his mouth, even though he was already getting anxious. "Yes… yes! How can you expect us to believe that this is not an attempt to punish me for marrying Julia? I haven't done anything, so on what grounds are you arresting me?"Without even giving Dave a chance to speak, Thomas began to bera
Julia was stunned to hear his stern scolding, as he always used to speak to her in a soft tone. But had he just asked her to shut up?! She was dumbfounded, wondering how the hell he had changed this much in just seconds! Meanwhile, Noah's fists were clenched in anger, and if he hadn't been handcuffed, he would have shut her up with a tight slap! Instead of feeling apologetic that he was in all this mess because of her, this girl was running her mouth to get him in more trouble?! "How dare you speak to my daughter like that?!" Before anyone could do anything, Thomas roared out. "Just be honest, have you been deceiving us all along? What have you done, answer me!" Noah was guiltily biting the inside of his cheek without saying anything. It wasn't just that he was embarrassed in front of everyone, but he also didn't want to say too much and get himself more tangled up in the web. But Dave was smiling sarcastically, understanding his thoughts. Even if Noah tried his best to hide
Dave came back to the present moment when he heard the screech of brakes of the police jeep, only to realize that they had arrived at the precinct.Feeling proud, he got down and escorted Noah out of the jeep, only to be greeted by his colleagues."I guess Dave finally opened his arrest record with a bang, huh?""Getting a high profile criminal and getting his revenge, now that's something else!""Yeah man, I guess all he needed to jump into action was a little push from our side!"By this time, they had entered the precinct, and Dave was enjoying the attention and flattery quite a bit.He handed Noah Stone over to one of the constables and instructed him to put him in lock- up."He is an A- list criminal from the auction theft, who managed to escape from prison. Lock him up for now, and we will be getting the statements from people tomorrow morning.""Yes sir!"The constable saluted him and led Noah inside, who felt even more humiliated, being dragged around like cattle."Leave me, y
