Night comes. A gentle breeze blew several banners outside the cafe. The atmosphere that night was quite calm, not many people there, Sam pulled a chair and sat in front of Dakota. He just ordered coffee and his favorite tuna sandwich, pushing Dakota's cake. He likes sweets these days.
Dakota turned, hearing the sound of Sam's heavy breathing. They had just closed the murder case of George Cann and Lily Larsyn, but for some reason, that made Sam look less enthusiastic than usual.
"What are you thinking of?"
Sam sipped his coffee. Even though the sun had set an hour ago, he still didn't want to miss his second cup of coffee that day. He hadn't had time to touch it all day because the coffee machine in the office was off, which made him annoyed.
“That man made many pe

Dakota continued enjoying his coffee and piece of cake, until his phone vibrated. He turned towards the road where Sam's vehicle had pulled over. Sam stopped the car, approaching Dakota.“Dax, are you done?” Sam glanced at Bryan who was sitting in front of Dakota.“Detective Danson”Sam just nodded lightly, helped Dakota grab his bag, and waited for him to stand up. Dakota seemed to glance at a small box on the table."That's for you," Dakota said in a very cold way and walked away.Sam was stunned, stuttering, glancing at what Dakota meant. He looked at Bryan who nodded.“This, for me?”Without thinking, Sam grabbed the box and followed Dakota."Hey Dax wait for me, this guy"In the car.Along the way to the elite area on the edge of the city of Bayward, another resident of the Rowen, Sam couldn't stop smiling. He glanced at the cake box he had put in the back seat through his rearview mirror, making sure it was still there. Dakota seemed to be able to hear Sam's happy voice continuin
CRIME BOOK 101 Midnight Guesses
Meanwhile, in the big city center of Bayward.The police sirens wailed loudly in the super modern and busy downtown Bayward. There is an annual event in the city center that is the center of everyone's attention, the streets are jammed. People were walking around with colorful clothes and name tags. The sidewalks for pedestrians are decorated with beautiful banners all the way to the large dome arena in the center of the city's art activities.Several well-known local and foreign media had filled the front area to cover the city's annual grand fashion show with special guests from high classes. One of them is Kim Sorensson and Robert Auckwin. But an extraordinary incident occurred that afternoon, beyond what usually happened in previous years. A police cordon had covered the venue for a fashion show from the famous designer, Mogus, where in the middle of the stage a white tarpaulin could be seen covering a lying body with blood still seeping onto the cloth. The forensic team, Emma, an
CRIME BOOK 101 The Model
Not long after, in the meeting room. Aris is assigned to handle their new case, The Model. The victim was a famous model who died in front of many people's eyes, even on a live fashion show broadcast. The news went viral very quickly in today's media with many allegations starting to circulate among the public in just a few hours.Sam saw the report that Aris and the CSU team collected last night on his tablet. There is also information from his manager and several close colleagues.“The victim was Lary Bishop, age twenty-three, the family located outside the city of Bayward and on their way here. In last night's round, his manager said that Lary should not be in that round, but another model, Gustav Ruin."Sam glanced at the screen where Aris and his friends had collected several photos, including photos of the victim and also the other model mentioned just now."Then, where is the person?" Sam asked.Aris pursed his lips."That's it, Boss, the manager said that Gustav didn't come wi
CRIME BOOK 101 Another One
Unconsciously, the big man licking his lips.Dakota just looked at the man with serious eyes, not realizing what the man's gaze meant to him. Sam came and stood in front of him, Sam showed his ID right in front of the man's face blocking his naughty view of Dakota."Hey take care of your eyes, it will come out soon"The man didn't seem to care, he pushed Sam's hand away to see Dakota more clearly, but Sam persisted and glared at him.“Hey”Finally, the man looked at Sam, changing his expression to annoyance.“Can you move aside, please? You just disturb my work at my highly busy hours, who is this man anyway, security!”Annoyed Sam showed his ID again right in the man's eyes.“Look at this carefully, do you want to be arrested for harassment? That look of yours could be interpreted as harassment, you know that!”The man widened his eyes, and swallowed hard as if he had woken up from the spell. He pulled his lips to see Sam's face which was clear to his eyes now."Why are you so fierce

Emma nodded.“Most likely like that, Boss. Arsenic can cause blood vessels and organs to explode, causing the body to release gas that affects the color of the victim's skin. The effect on each victim is different, it can cause changes in skin color, and in some cases, it is not visible at all. But what is most clear is that, as soon as it enters the body, the victim dies within minutes, even seconds."Sam stood, straightening himself, stroking his chin.“Hemh, very dangerous poison. They still use it until now." Sam glanced at Dakota who was looking around the room. He had to keep an eye on him or else the person would cause harm to himself, who knew if the poison was still in the room?"Dax, put your mask on, who knows if the poison is still left in this room," Sam shouted, coming closer and helping Dakota put his face mask on. Dakota just looked at Sam with annoyed eyes. Dakota stopped in front of a fast food wrapper that was on the table near the window. On a large plate, there w
CRIME BOOK 101 It Was Dark
“Stop!”Chiiitt!A loud buzzing sound was ringing inside Dakota's ear.The sun shone brightly through the glass windows on the VVIP floor of Pinewoods hospital. Slowly, Dakota opened his, beautiful blue eyes exposed to a little sunlight. He raised his hand to block the light which, although not very bright, hurt his eyes. His head was dizzy, and his chest hurt, in fact, his whole body hurt as if he had been hit by a heavy object pressing on top of him. There was a needle and a long IV poked into his left arm. Several monitoring cables were attached to his body from his chest to below his waist. Did he go back to the hospital?Dakota turned his eyes, hearing someone sitting near him get up from his seat.“Hey Dax, you're awake, how are you feeling?”Robert Aucwin was already there, smiling at the top of his head.“Rob, you're here, what happened?”Robert smiled. He sat on the edge of the bed."What else, you were unconscious last night. Sam took you to the hospital and the doctor said

The sunlight turns orange. Forming lines in the western sky indicating that it is getting late.Robert glanced at his watch, it was almost three in the afternoon and Sam hadn't arrived yet. He got up from his seat and approached the bed where Dakota was leaning against a high pillow still reading his book."Dax, I'll be out for a while, if Sam doesn't come, I'll stay here with you tonight, okay?""Just go home, Rob, just leave me alone here, you guys will only disturb my sleep."Robert pursed his lips."Yeah, but your room here is more comfortable than in the apartment, do I have to sleep alone with that Sam? It's going to be weird."Dakota turned, looking at Robert for a moment.“What happened to your apartment? Why don't you come with Kim?”Robert scratched his head."Your sister is busy with her work, while the apartment is very cold, I'm afraid to sleep alone."For a moment, Dakota glanced at Robert. He knew that his brother-in-law was just talking carelessly. There is no way he'
CRIME BOOK 101 Escaped Inmates
Twenty hours earlier. The alarm echoed loudly in the first-class prison complex on the outskirts of Bayward. Bright red sirens flashed in all corners. Guards hurried back and forth, searching for several inmates who had managed to escape into the two fenced areas before exiting the high-security building. "God damn it! Do you want to run away?" Without mercy, the big guards threw their batons and beat several prisoners who were still trying to escape. Some were caught before arriving at gate one, some even managed to get out of the gate and had to be paralyzed with rubber bullets. ”Ah! It’s hurt!" The big guards with muscles sticking out of their tight clothes were merciless. Even though some of the prisoners looked fiercer than them, they didn't give a single prisoner a chance to escape from their watch. "God damn it! You try to run! Take this!" Hard and flexible batons smashed the thick bodies mercilessly, groans of pain and exaggerated screams could be heard in the corners of t
