CRIME BOOK 101 Comfort Sofa
It was a very tiring day. It was about eight o'clock in the evening and Dakota lay down for a while on the new plush red sofa in the lounge. While Rina and Aris came to report their findings to end the day.The two young cops stuttered, not knowing what to say because they were both so absorbed in watching Sam massage Dakota's ankles as he plopped down on the couch."That's enough, Sam, aren't you uncomfortable with everyone seeing you?" Dakota said.Sam turned to Rina and Aris who were standing not far behind them, and both of them immediately averted their eyes."Eh I-I'm going to make some coffee," said Aris.Rina nodded."That's a good idea, I'll get the cup""Which one do you like Rin?"The two suddenly became so close to each other, whereas the usual day was more like a cat and a dog always fighting."Em, Latte is good, looks like I need something a bit strong tonight" replied Rina.Aris approached the coffee machine which was still shiny, it was also a new item in the room, one
CRIME BOOK 101 The Pharmacist
The rain had just let up. Although it was still a small drizzle that was clearly visible in the street lamp. Water still flooded the path which was dark with only the slightest illumination of the makeshift lamps, some of which didn't even light up. The road down from the bus stop in front of the alley to the apartment building at the end of the road looks dark and very quiet, it's already twelve o'clock at night, it's very dark.Pete walked over with an umbrella in his hand, he was used to coming home at that hour if he had a second shift before this, but, for some reason that night, he felt someone was tailing him. The young man, who had a slight limp due to his prosthetic leg, walked carefully down the downhill road that turned toward his apartment. Until something suddenly hit him."Bukkk!Pete was startled, the umbrella he was holding tightly flew as he fell backwards. The young man fell onto the wet and dirty road. He tried to pull his body back when he saw a very large, tall fi
CRIME BOOK 101 Someone Behind
"Yeah, I know him, he, who came to my work and offered me a business I couldn't refuse. Since I really needed the money to pay for my exams, and somehow Jon could suddenly come to work and offer me a chance, I took the offer. They really gave me the funds and then took me to the gambling house to play for a while to try my luck. At that time, I was lucky enough and won. Hehe, now that I think about it at that time I must be very unlucky. I won on the first day, I could pay the fees for the exam the next day. But, Jon didn't stop there, he took me back to the gambling house and made me spend all my money until I had no other choice but to go into debt. Previously the committee had made me sign a stamped work which stated that I must be able to pay off my debt at all costs or else I will be handed over to the police”Pete held his breath for a moment and then continued the story."Heh, I'm really stupid, letting my smart self be fooled like that. I should have just let them take me to th
CRIME BOOK 101 The Shophouses
…………………Two days later. On a small road not far from the city main road. Police vehicles can be seen parked not far from the location where Erw found the live broadcasting point of the online gambling. Everyone was hiding behind the building covering themselves looking in front of them where several people were seen going back and forth in front of a building. A shophouse next door to a long-closed handyman supply store.Sam readied his gun. He and his team had prepared themselves with firearms and bulletproof vests. He glanced at the other team that was across from where he and the others were hiding."Gus, we are ready," said Sam in the earset connection.Not long after, the polices in black uniforms from the raid team came out of the alley from all directions, all of sudden approaching the shophouse area."Freeze!!" a few officers caught the shocked people in the front and led them away, while the team behind him rushed into the money changer office building next to the handyman su
CRIME BOOK 101 Celebration
Sam was sitting in the minibus which he parked a bit far across the row of shop houses sounded as if in thought."Hmm, they might just be normal offices."Dakota who was sitting behind Erw looked at the files Erw saw when he logged into the office's virtual storage network.“Erw, can you see the CCTV footage posted in the front and back alley?”Erw nodded."It seems possible, this is a recording file, but the longest is only up to one month"Sam replied."We at least need proof that Pete was there five months ago, when he hasn't lost his leg, try to find the recording on August 5th Erw, Pete said it was the day he lost his leg"Dakota looked carefully at all the video footage that Erw was showing on the screen. Nothing was facing the shophouse, and only showed the back part of the vehicle parked in front, unable to see what people were doing after getting out of the car and into the shophouse."Nothing boss, all just facing the road and parking lot, it can't be seen who got out of the
CRIME BOOK 101 The Raids
Dakota glared at Sam, who look ridiculous at that time."Sam, don't think anything funny, Sam, we have a lot of work to do, isn't that what you said earlier?"Sam almost choked on his own saliva, Dakota's words instantly pierced his heart."Eh hehe, that's right, take a look at this"………………. Shortly after in one of the interrogation rooms.Brukk!Sam put the piles of papers on the table so hard, that even the dust flew all over the place all the way to the rather stocky middle-aged man sitting in the chair in front of him and Dakota.The man was Al Garth, fifty-two years of age, currently identified as the principal manager at Rosiana's money changer office. The man who kept breaking out in a cold sweat even though the air in the room was cold enough, looked at the pile of papers that Sam had brought with his eyes wide."I-I don't know anything, and I know it's my right not to talk"Dakota look at the man thorough. The man looked very nervous, of course, who wouldn't be nervous sittin
CRIME BOOK 101 Threw some Fake baits
Sam took out his cell phone, checking the messages that had just come in."Em, Emma has confirmed that there are no tattoos or moles between the fingers that you see in the photo on Johan's body, could it be that he also removed the moles between his fingers? But, why would he do it?”Dakota looked thoughtful."I saw the mole was Sam, it was exactly the same, as I suspected from the start. I just confirmed the scars on his arm, its must be from tattoo’s removals"Sam straightened up."Really? Here? Meaning? Uh, that.." Sam whispered.Dakota nodded."I'm not sure either. Oh yeah, Sam, I keep the original video recording on the day Low Key was killed, unlike the one you got yesterday. When it happened there was another colleague who took this person's place in his shift, and all the nurses gave false testimony because they didn't want that person to have some problem with the administration. Also, I meet the person who admitted to hurting his hand while lifting the patient's wheelchair,
CRIME BOOK 101 A Fish
In a rather quiet highway alley. Someone, from his tall stature with muscular legs and arms and a broad chest, is definetely a man. He covers his face with a black mask and hat. The person pushed Dakota's wheelchair in a direction where he might have parked his vehicle. They had already left the city park area."You don't think I don't recognize you, do you? Doctor David?" asked Dakota.The man pushing Dakota's wheelchair smirked. He didn't stop walking but pulled the mask off his face, he was the therapist, David."Hey, you are really great Dakota Sorenson, I thought I have been very careful and calculated all means, you can still find my gap, what is that so clear in your eyes?" he asked."Not really, I never thought it was you, you show it out yourself, if you want to blame, blame yourself for why you are so careless"David held back in annoyance, he tightened his grip on the chair and headed to his vehicle which he parked on the side of the road.“You know, after this, you probabl

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

What's Your Desire ?
Morning comes. The sun shone brightly until it hit the highest part of the Bayward One tower and reflected all around it. The busyness of the metropolitan city has been visible since the sun was bright. Far below, the city's main roads are starting to fill with vehicles of all sizes sharing the pollution.Sam had just put on his leather jacket, today was going to be a busy one. He had to go early in the morning to the office for the weekly routine meeting and to analyze the various cases that were piling up.The bombing case at the center has not yet been resolved and several other cases have emerged.

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
