CRIME BOOK 101 The Warehouse
CCTV footage shows a black van stopping in front of a building at midnight during the incident, pushing the victim out of the car, who then crawls along the sidewalk until their death. Erw tries to see who is behind the wheel, but the tinted windows are so dark that only a faint glimmer of light from what looks like a watch on the steering wheel is visible. "This is the moment of the incident; at eleven o'clock, this vehicle was seen moving from the east side of the road, coming from out of town and turning under the bridge to enter the area between the buildings. At that time, the building's security officer mentioned that there are usually cars that enter the alley between the buildings to cut through to another road, as it’s quicker to go this way than to go straight down the flyover to make a turn," Aries explains while clarifying the CCTV footage as best as Erw can.Dakota watches several short videos following a fairly large van with a covered back, resembling a laundry transpor

"Sam," Dakota's voice cut through, stopping Sam, who was too emotional. Finally, Sam sat back down, pushing his chair slightly forward. And took a deep breath.Sam showed the data on the tablet in front of the man again. "What business are you running? According to our investigation, you're not involved in buying or selling anything at all, unless you really are conducting some kind of trade here?" Sam asked. The man looked momentarily flustered but quickly changed his expression. "Uh, selling birds, fish, puppies, cars, ornamental plants." the man simply answers.Sam was starting to lose his patience; he almost got up to hit the man again because he looked down on him with his lies. "This man!""Sam!" Dakota called out a bit louder, now holding Sam's hand tightly to prevent him from actually hitting the witness. After releasing the second witness, Dakota mentioned that the man was indeed suspicious, hiding something quite important. Eventually, Rina and Aris followed him for tw
CRIME BOOK 101 The Place
The next day, at a hospital on the outskirts of town.Rosewell General Hospital. Located right outside Bayward."Doctor Ross is needed in the ER immediately, call for Doctor Ross" Voice calls through the speaker around the halls are still common in this hospital.Incidentally at that time, Dakota was also checking himself there, his doctor's practice schedule, Doctor Elbert was there, so he just go over to him, despite the other things, of course."What about this?" Doctor Elbert, the old neuroscientist, stuck a pen under Dakota's feet. Dakota nodded. He could feel a slight touch under his foot, quite clearly."Yeah Doc, I can feel it."Doctor Elbert smiled, he turned to the nurse who was standing beside him."This is a good sign, Dax, it means your nerves may be starting to improve, get regular therapy and you can walk normally again"Sam came in from outside and saw the nurse who was about to help Dakota get out of bed to his wheelchair. He's approaching fast."Eits, ouch, this Dako

Sam wandered around the hospital looking for information about patients who came after undergoing a transplant. Somehow the second-class hospital in the city became one of the hospitals with the highest number of similar patient arrivals among the others.“What about his current condition? Can he be interviewed?” Sam asked the doctor on duty at the ER at that time, Dr Akmer, a dark-skinned man with a slightly grey beard on his chin. The doctor turned his head and looked at the emergency room for a moment."That kid? I don't know if he wants to be asked by the police or not, because he looks so secretive. He doesn't even tell who he donated his kidney to, he doesn't have any family or friends we can ask.”Sam frowned.“Then, can I see his stuff? Clothes, shoes, or, cell phones?” Sam asked, he knew it was impossible for him to do without a warrant. But considering the young man was alone with no family or guardian, he could ask him directly when he regained consciousness."You can, but,
CRIME BOOK 101 The Network
Until nightfall, Erw finally managed to find someone among the young police officers who had experience in disguise, Denis, a twenty-five-year-old young man who was then seconded to the team. The young man was sitting across from Sam now for a brief meeting on their case.Every now and then Sam turns to Dakota who looks serious looking at his laptop screen. Sam can't wait to make fun of Dakota because what he thought about being impossible to find people in a short time turned out to be wrong. They got it on time, and thanks to Ron's orders, they were able to ask for the young officer to help them.After all, according to Erw, it would be very risky for Dakota to disguise himself in the network because Dakota's face is quite famous lately, lest he accidentally throws himself into the tiger's cage."So, Denis, it's going to be like this ..:" Sam's voice dominates the room.Before the day was over, Erw had registered Denis's name as a member of the buyer, with a deposit lent by the polic

Sam hurried to the front of his car, his eyes widening as he saw Dakota lying on the ground next to his damaged wheelchair. The laundry van had just collided with it and sped away, hitting the parking barrier in the process and stopping. Sam quickly rushed to Dakota's side.“Dakota! What happened?" Sam screamed in panic, at least Dakota managed to keep the vehicle from leaving.Sam couldn't believe what the young professor had done who was now smiling at him. Did he do it on purpose?"Dax, are you nuts?" cried Sam loudly.Shortly after at the police headquarters.For neglectful reasons and nearly causing harm to Dakota, who was reportedly crossing the street, three laundry workers were taken to the police station for questioning. Specifically, Sam, Aries, and Rina were each separated for individual checks.Unbelievable was the rage that consumed young Rina, as she knew the man nearly collided with Dakota. Luckily, he had hurled himself out of harm's way just in time for the vehicle to

"Ahem, stop it already, don't make any more fuss, how can you not be rumored to be husband and wife if you keep fighting like that every day"Rina and Aris are still mocking each other, if not for Sam and Dakota there the two of them might have hit each other, lucky both of them were assigned separately. "Get over it, okay. Rina, go to Erw's room and ask for all the important details about the three employees of the Orchid laundry house. Dakota said witness C who has a tattoo and also works at a nightclub where Jon is also a member. I want you to invite one person to join you and keep an eye on what he's doing for twenty-four hours, then do manual recon.”Sam turned to Aris.“Aris, go to the Orchid laundry house. Ask for a list of deliveries for this month, and find out how many times they pick up and send laundry to Rosewell Hospital. We can match their data from the hospital's statement which says about patients who suddenly come and are tested at the hospital. What about the result

That night turned out to be a very long one. Although the auction lasted for only two hours, the auctioneer managed to close a sale and purchase agreement for two blue colours. One of which belonged to Denis, one red, and one green, while so far the two black colours have not closed the deal yet. From what Erw tracked all night during the live broadcast, the website address where the live broadcast was spotted outside the city, to be precise in a very quiet office building near the city of Cyan, a small industrial city around Bayward.Sam and the team were already outside the building, ready to rush in and explore the contents of the office building, located quite far from civilization. Erw had observed from the street surveillance cameras surrounding the three-story office that a group of people, possibly network members, were gathering near the office block. However, due to the distance, Erw hesitated to confirm the exact number of individuals present.Sam gave the code to the team
