Dakota stood next to Sam in the monitoring room, feeling relaxed since Sam had forbidden him from going out to teach. He even contacted his university and told them that Dakota was on leave indefinitely; what was that idiot thinking, Dakota wondered, feeling annoyed. "Well, what else are you guys doing over there? Get back to the office! Are you planning to stay there all day?" Sam shouted into his phone. Ron walked in, glanced at Sam who looked busy on the phone, and then at Dakota standing in front of the row of monitors behind the technician. Ron spotted an empty chair in the corner and pushed it closer."Dax, you can sit down. Your leg still hurts, don’t stand for too long, you know how Sam is," Ron said.Dakota looked at Ron and then at the chair he had pushed in front of him. He returned his gaze to the monitor in front of him."Thank you, sir, no need I’m fine" Dakota replied.Sam finished yelling at Aris and Ian on the other end of the line, hung up, and walked over. He shot

"Hey, are we done yet? My time is very valuable; I can't just sit here all day doing nothing. Do you know how much I get paid per hour for a live appearance?" said the pretty girl, one of the members of Darno's book club, who was invited by Rina and Luk to the police station. Allen Harvey sat next to her. "You think you're the only busy one? Me too; I still have a lot of tasks to finish before they’re due tomorrow morning. This is such a waste of time." said the young man.Several male and female students from Rocketfield campus were invited to the office for further information regarding the Missing Doly case. Instead of finding connections to Anita's disappearance from yesterday, the team stumbled upon something else entirely. Rina and Luk, along with two uniformed officers, stood in front of a line of students they suspected might be linked to Anita's disappearance, which had occurred weeks ago. Each person there had their own alibi. "You can go home, but remember this case is s

CW University.Dakota had just finished his first class and waddled outside the main building to walk to the cafe. He will have a lecturer meeting soon and can't miss it again this time.Dakota was just about to walk down the steps onto the pathway leading out when his cell phone vibrated. Incoming call from Sam."Yeah, Sam"Sam is on his driving seat leaving the main road along the small road leading to district one. Only a few vehicles, including his, were seen passing by. The air was getting warmer and hotter from the sun making him cover the sunroof of his hummer to reduce the heat. Sam grabbed the sunglasses from the dashboard and put them on."I have something to do, not long, just wait at your office I will pick you up after finishing, don't go anywhere, you hear me?"Dakota pulled his lips, saw several students passing by, and greeted him."No need Sam, I'll call Edi and ask him to pick me up""Who is Eddie? Oh, that driver of yours? You can't Dax, Kim said he's been assigned o
CRIME BOOK 101 Unidentified Body
Sam grumbled all the way while Dakota is about to fall asleep. Sam looks annoyed to see who Dakota met without telling him."Never mind Sam, she just happened to come to campus, it’s no big deal""You said it’s no big deal? She may be the one behind the girl's disappearance, and so far we haven't ruled out her alibi yet. So she is probably the most dangerous by far."Dakota felt dizzy, maybe partly because Sam had been talking all along. Not to mention that the road in front of him was badly jammed and he was forced to stop his vehicle while cursing. Sam turned and saw Dakota who closed his eyes while massaging his forehead.“Do you have a headache? Want me to send you to the hospital? Kim said it's time for your regular check-up."Dakota shook his head."No need Sam, it's already night, it's better to just go back to the apartment, I can go there by myself tomorrow"Sam pulled his lips, drive his vehicle when the vehicle in front started to move."Stubborn," …..Aris and Ian were sti
CRIME BOOK 101 Dinner
The sky was starting to turn orange on the west side of the city park. Some of the park workers were about to clean up their equipment to end their day's work. Large men in green shirts and vests with the words gardener printed on the back approached the woodcutter which had just stopped operating after all the logs and small twigs had been milled. Then it will be taken to the warehouse for city workers to be processed into other materials."It's so hot today, won't it rain again?” Said the elderly man who had part of his beard turned grey, flicking his hat while sitting on a plastic chair in the area for the workers to rest. Another younger colleague approached. He drank a lot of water from his bottle and looked at the sky around them."It looks like it's going to rain, look at that black cloud, it's moving closer from a distance"The older man nodded."That's right, it is getting closer, we should have go home in a hurry"The older man looked at the young man beside him.“Oh yeah, by
CRIME BOOK 101 Not Office Hour
Klek.Sam closed his bedroom door. The air in the Prime Minister's residence was very cold, especially at night so he needed to wear a fairly thick jacket when talking to the Prime Minister earlier. He took off his leather jacket, hung it by the door, and walked over to his bed.He's going to sit on his bed checking his phone. He haven't had time to check his phone even though he heard some incoming notifications. There is a short message in the group chat."Boss, the lab discovered the identity of the unknown man, from some items found in the warehouse." Message from Aris. It was Rina and Luk who discovered the crime scene, but, because Aris was handling the unidentified corpse, he decided to give the case to him. The message was sent about an hour ago, and it's already eleven o'clock at night, have they slept yet? But Sam still replied to his message.“Give the report by tomorrow,” he wrote.He sent the next message."Rina, Luk, investigate Lucy Lowe's family and what it has to do wi

They managed to invite the witness of the kidnapping, the victim herself, Anita Hans, to be questioned in the interrogation room.Sam and Dakota pass in front of the interrogation room, having caught sight of old man Hans sitting in the waiting area in the front lobby."Come on Dax," Sam said waiting for Dakota to arrive to enter together into the monitor room. Ron was seen already inside.“Boss”Ron turned around. Had a sharp look at Sam."Sam, were you the ones who suggested Anita Hans come here?" he asked.Sam glanced at Dakota, and he nodded."Yeah, so what?" as usual he asked back because his boss saw him like that. Ron pursed his mouth."What else? Asking for a warrant is very troublesome, Ryan and his team are not like you guys, who can request a warrant as quickly as turning your palm. At least it took a few days, Lucky he use your name on it” said Ron.Sam
CRIME BOOK 101 Over-Bodies
“Dax”Sam opened the door. Seeing the room lights that haven't been turned off even though it's already midnight. Finally, Sam walk in and found Dakota sitting by the large window of his room, looking far out. A dark sky with towering buildings and several giant billboards could be seen from afar. Although it's not very clear because the position of Dakota's room has a visibility that is free from anything that hurts the eyes.Sam approached and held out a tall glass of milk in front of Dakota who looked to be thinking seriously."Hey, can't sleep? This is ginseng milk for you, Kim asked me to bring lots of it which is good for insomnia” said Sam. For a while, Dakota didn't respond, but Sam still patiently stick out the glass until Dakota raised his to take it.“Thanks, Sam”Sam enjoyed his milk, occasionally seeing Dakota who looked serious thinking about something floating above his head as if Sam could see it clearly."What are you thinking about? Is it that girl named Lucy Lowe?”

Sleeping Like A Baby
The young man’s face… it was like the face of the stabber at the mall yesterday. He was clearly a special needs child, possibly one of the children from those secret laboratory experiments.Dakota looked at the three campus security guards standing watch, batons in hand. A few more guards were just appearing behind them. Luke moves in front Dakota to keep him from harm.“Hey kid, calm down. Do you know what you’ve done? You just killed someone. You’re smart, you don’t want to die stupidly or go to jail, right?” Luke asked, though he knew it was too late to talk him down, he still had to try.The young man grinned, raising a long, kitchen-knife-like blade that gleamed sharply. He wiped the remaining blood on the blade with his tongue, licking it clean. Luke fought back a wave of nausea.“Oh.”“They study air theory, let them feel what it’s like to fly through the air.

Bad Feeling
Emma sat back down, and it was now Rina's case. Sam looked serious until his phone in his pocket vibrated. A call from someone he wasn't expecting, just as he thought. Jack Moris from the federal agency."Yeah," Sam said, getting up from his seat. He glanced at Ron across from him, then got up to answer the phone.“You’re incredible! We haven’t even released any reports to headquarters, how did you know about this? Did you plant spies in our office?” Sam asked. Jack Moris’s voice boomed in his ear; Sam had to pull the phone away, his ear aching from the man’s thunderous tone.“Ouch, that’s loud,” he muttered, pressing the phone back to his ear.“This might not even be the same case. Why don’t you let us handle this first? You won’t be late getting information, trust me. It could just be a random attack, like what usually happens. Anyone can go crazy, right? Are you sure this is

A Killing Machine?
It was getting late, midnight, and Sam had just finished cleaning up. He came out of the bathroom, toweling his hair with a small towel, his upper body bare except for a towel around his waist. He approached the bed where Dakota was already sitting, opening his laptop."Wow, it's midnight, my dear professor. Time for bed, why are you still working?" Sam said, stopping beside Dakota.Dakota looked up, seeing Sam's slightly wet, bare upper body displaying his muscular chest. Sam seemed quite proud of showing it off.Dakota just pursed his lips, ignoring Sam and continuing to look at his laptop screen. Sam smirked; he'd intentionally teased Dakota, but the young man was completely unaffected. He'd hoped for some kind of reaction.Sam sat down next to Dakota. But before he could sit on the soft bed, Dakota moved the pillow from his left side onto the bed, preventing Sam from sitting down."You can get a blanket from the closet. The couchis very s

More Than A Family
Dakota looked at the takeout container Luke had placed on the table. He watched him slowly sit down."Aren't you with guests? Why aren't you eating with them?" Dakota asked. Luke waved his hand dismissively."Let my secretary keep them company, I said I had important business. Look at this, supposedly amazing steak, almost perfect reviews. Next time we have time, we'll eat at the restaurant, they say it's much better there."said the man excitingly.Dakota looked at the logo on the box."I tried it last week with Sam."said Dakota.Luke's hand movement stopped; he looked disappointed."Oh, really? Was it good? How’sthe rate?" Luke asked."Yeah, pretty good," Dakota replied casually.Luke placed the plate in front of Dakota and carefully took out the neatly arranged steak from the box. Even though it was in a delivery container, the restaurant paid attention to quality, keeping it aesthetically pleasing wit

What's The Connection ?
Rina approached their office just as Sam came back in after dealing with the attackers. She looked annoyed.“Boss,”Sam turned. He was applying a compress to his jaw, which was swollen and slightly red from the hard hit.“What about the woman? Did she confess?” Sam asked.Rina and her boss went into their office. It was dark outside, and the air was getting cold. Everyone was exhausted.“She’s very good at making excuses, Boss. According to her secretary, there was information about a room that couldn’t be used; she told Amelia because she was in charge of the seminar. After that, she got word to move everyone to the auditorium at the last minute. All the information fits Amelia Roy’s alibi,” Rina replied.Sam sat down, wincing slightly from his bleeding lip, a souvenir from the thug’s punch.“She must have planned everything meticulously.

A Brawl Broke Up
The wail of sirens echoed in the distance. Fire trucks had arrived and were tackling the blaze that erupted from an explosion of some electronic equipment in the now-destroyed auditorium building. Several ambulances pulled up, administering first aid to the victims, including Dakota, Luke Osborn, and Sam, who sat on the side of an ambulance, their faces and bodies covered in dust."Here, let me brush off your clothes," Sam said, brushing thick dust from Dakota's sleeve. They both looked like they'd just cleaned out an abandoned warehouse.Dakota had some scrapes on his forehead, and his clothes were torn; besides the aches and pains from the impact of the debris, they seemed alright. Medics bandaged a gash on Dakota's arm and Luke Osborn's forehead scrapes."Why did they target this building? Man, this was built less than two years ago. If they wanted to blow something up, they should've gone for that old building behind the lab," Luke said, propping his chin in his hands.Sam sat b

Not In A Good Place and Time
"Having no one to eat with is kind of weird, right? Is Mr. Meyers still reaching out to you?" Luke asked as he opened his takeout bag and pulled out his food, setting it in front of him. Dakota closed his laptop, watching Luke unpack his meal from the carton and arrange it neatly. The guy even opened the chopstick wrapper to hand it to Dakota."Why would he reach out to me? We're not that close," said Dakota.Luke raised his eyebrows at Dakota's response. "Oh, really? I thought you two were close. He often invites you to lunch and waits for your class to finish. If that's not close, then what is?"Dakota opened his lunch box. For some reason, he felt like trying the wet noodles Rina had recommended a while back; they looked pretty good."We have lunch together too,

No Time for Fever
The sun shone brightly, breaking through the curtains and hitting the long sofa in Dakota’s room. Sam lay face down there all night, still in the clothes he wore yesterday.“Ouch, my body,” he turned over, feeling sore after sleeping on that couch all night.Even though it was the softest, highest-quality sofa money could buy, it would still be more comfortable to sleep in a bed. He remembered that last night because he was so tired, he fell asleep on Dakota’s very tempting bed, so why did he end up there?“Boss, let’s go out!” Edi’s voice still echoed in his head. His forehead was hot, and he was sweating even though the room was cold. He pulled himself up and sat, glancing at Dakota’s neatly made bed. It was nearing noon, eight in the morning when h
