Dakota just looked at the man with his usual calm face.“Have you thought about the consequences of doing all this? Kidnapping a police officer is no small matter, let alone killing him," said Dakota.Andrian Carls smiled, straightening his body to look at Sam who was almost drowning, his head remaining tilted to stay on the surface."Andrian Carls, damn you, I will kill you if you lay your hand on Dakota, I will chop you to pieces!" Sam shouted, he struggled to stay up but as time went on the water got higher and higher until it reached below his neck, and the water came so fast, he could die if he didn't get out of there immediately."Shit!"Dakota saw Sam struggling, who knows what he should think at such a critical time, but what was clear was that Sam really needed his help. At least humans can only hold their breath for less than ninety seconds. Sam doesn't smoke, but no matter how healthy he is he won't be able to last longer than that. He had to think extra.“You don't think yo
"Don't overdo it Sam, you have to go to the hospital to check you in, the water in the bathtub could contain bacteria and fungus, you have to clean it from the inside."While uniformed cops come in to check the scene where Sam and Dakota almost lost their lives, Sam props Dakota past them."Yeah, I know, there was a professor who reminded me, of course I won't forget it. Oh look at the blood, there's a lot of it, come here, let me bandage it first."Sam stopped once they reached the ground floor, the old house was big enough that it took a while to get out. Don't know how Andrian Carls was able to get them there by himself, he is truly extraordinary.Sam didn't stop smiling, takes Dakota's tie to wrap the wound to stop the blood. He won't forget how Dakota was so worried about his condition, Dakota, who he knew have no emphaty, could feel worry about him.Dakota noticed Sam's ridiculous face."Why do you keep smiling, Did your brain damage from drowning earlier?" Dakota asked.Sam pur
Talking about other cases, he even always checks the group chat to see if there has been any progress or not but looks like there hasn't been any. They are too busy and tired, by now the office must have been visited by the families of the victims who came to report after they said that the killer of their kids had been arrested.The nurse came in and helped Sam to remove the IV needle, he could go for outpatient treatment after this."Thank you, Miss" and don't forget, handsome Sam smiled at the pretty nurse who had been taking care of him since morning, he will miss her.Sam got up, threw back the blanket, and put his legs off the bed.Sam looked at his cell phone, it's been hushed since earlier, what is Dakota doing now? Is he going back to campus? Sam thought looking for Dakota's number and calling him.Several rings with no answer, is he that busy so he doesn't have time to answer the phone? How about just leaving a message, no, that will be useless, with Dakota's nature he'll pr
The next day.Dakota went back to his routine as a lecturer at CW, while Sam went straight to the office because he had so many files to complete. Not to mention new cases that have yet to be resolved.Dakota had just gotten out of his vehicle with Edi accompanying him towards the main building right in front of them. However, their case is still far from over, and the perpetrator of the kidnapping who collaborated with Andrian Carls has not yet been found. All still need to vigilante at this situation. Dakota was just about to head down the path to the building when her cell phone vibrated, an incoming call from Kim.“Yeah”Dakota nodded at several students who greeted him, then continued walking with his cell phone on."This afternoon I want to go to the police station, Sam needs all the help available, there are several new cases.""Don't act busy with me, we don't see each other often. Em, how about tonight, I've only had five days off from Boa, join me for dinner, I'll send you t
Nutt.The door opened from outside. The automatic lights in the front area were on as he stepped in. Dakota almost jumped in surprise when he saw something moving on the couch in the dim living room.“Oh”Who else but Sam who with his pillow face sat almost asleep on the couch. He yawned profusely when he saw Dakota there, at first glance he looked like a ghost, with dim lights, messy hair, and a large white blanket that seemed to sparkle from the outside lights."Eh, you’re home, I was waiting for you and fell asleep"His hand was still holding a jar of expired fried peanuts which no longer tasted crunchy. Then straightened his seat and put the jar on the table, smoothing his hair up.Dakota approached, looking at Sam with an annoyed face. The clock on the wall showed past eleven o'clock at night."What are you doing sitting in the dark like that?” Dakota asked.Sam saw Dakota's hand placing a paper bag with a round red logo that he had seen for the first time, his eyes shone brigh
Sam lowered his body squatting in front of the hallway with very little light from the window which was covered by thick dark red curtains, not allowing much light to enter.“She probably spends more time here, whether it's sleeping, or reading all these books, is she really reading them? All these books are like new" Sam took the book closest to him, and dust could be seen gathering at the top of the pile of books, meaning it had been a long time since the victim thought to touch it.Dakota found a book at the bottom in front of Sam, face down with the pages open."General psychology and its applied sciences" is the book's title.Sam frowned.“She's a business lecturer, right? Do business lecturers also study this?” Sam asked.Dakota looked at the cover of the book, as he expected. It was a very old book, from when he first became a professor several years ago, there was his name at the bottom of the back cover of the book. Sam widened his eyes, was this just a coincidence?"Dax, don
Sam's jeep came out of the small village area of Syla. Along the way, eyes were looked at them because they were foreigners. The village is small, with few residents and most of them are elders and young kids, so if there are new people there, they will notice them. Rina and Luk down to the street after stopping briefly at the minimarket on the way out of the village. They’re digging for a little information about the victim in case someone knows her. And it is, almost all of the people there know each other, they even know when the last time the victim was returned to her house. The timeline is more or less the same as the victim was found, or, at least part of the victim's body because until now they still have not found the rest of the body yet. Did the perpetrator cut her off and throw them in different places, like what happened to the meatball stall victim some time ago?Sam glanced at Dakota who was sitting next to him. They stopped for a moment on the side of the road while
“Conductor company, private, district five”Soon many round, yellow company logos appeared on Erw's screen.Erw looked at the video clips and logos, trying to narrow the search."There are around twenty-five privately owned conductor companies, all of their registration numbers start from 09," said Erw.Dakota's pair of light blue eyes played left and right, the light reflection from the monitor screen was visible in his clear glasses’ lense.“Not here, try looking outside the Bayward area. District five companies sometimes set up factories outside the administrative area to reduce tax payments.”Erw nodded, that made sense, he thought, starting
