CRIME BOOK 101 As Guessed
The sun shone brightly. A gentle breeze blew through the curtains as the nurse opened the small window of the room to let in some fresh air.Kimberly, a young woman with a very classy appearance, had long, wavy dark red hair, smooth, fair skin without blemishes, and full, red lips. At a glance, her face resembled Dakota's so much that she could be considered Dakota's female counterpart. Her outfit accentuated her beautiful curves; she was no ordinary woman. She was a young lady at the peak of her life, even surpassing some men. Taking on the role of head of the family since their father being so busy with his own agenda, there were just the two of them. Dakota was the one she cherished more than anything else in the world.A serene look shone in her eyes as she gently stroked Dakota's hair. "Kim," Dakota opened his eyes. At first, his vision was still blurry, but the scent of the perfume—his sister's favorite, which Kimberly always bought even if it meant traveling far away abroad jus
CRIME BOOK 101 Act
"Doctor Katrin, you are under arrest for suspected involvement in a drug trafficking ring..." Katrin grinned, looking at Sam as he approached and took the needle from Rina's hand. "I was trying to save him! I just wanted to give him the antidote!" Katrin shouted. Several police officers entered the room and restrained Katrin. "You wanted to kill Dakota; you deliberately wanted to make him addicted, right? All this to get your revenge?" Katrin struggled, trying to break free from the officers holding her. "I just wanted to help him! I love Dakota; why would I want to kill him? Let me go!" Sam took a deep breath, watching the woman, who was none other than one of Dakota's close friends, being led out of the room. The young detective approached the bed, seeing Dakota with his eyes open, staring straight at him. "Sam." Sam smiled. "Hey, sorry for waking you up, heh, things are getting crazier." ***"Aww, that hurts, Kim!" Dakota groaned as Kimberly's hard punch land
CRIME BOOK 101 Home Visit
Two days later.Thomas walked into Ron and the team's office."Mr. Ron, regarding Dr. Katrin Danes, the court has agreed to transfer the case to the prosecutor's office for further investigation. Why are you still holding her here?" Ron, sitting behind his desk, looked up. He had just been busy with a pile of administrative work that had accumulated on his desk."Sam said there's still more to investigate, we've asked for an extension until next week, she'll be safe in her cell, you don't need to worry." Thomas took a deep breath. "It's not that, the prosecution might find more clues about the case. This situation has already gone public, so we need to start thinking about how to avoid it if we can. If the Prime Minister hears about Dakota's involvement in all this, everything will get even messier." Ron placed his pen on top of his stack of papers. "I think he might already know by now." Thomas turned to look at Ron with wide eyes. "What do you mean? How could he know? Di
CRIME BOOK 101 Trapped
The rain had stopped. They arrived at the location a few kilometers from the city limits. "Wee woo!" Several vehicles with their sirens still blaring had already filled the area. The road leading out of town was quite empty, allowing for the road closure to still be managed. The morning light hadn't fully broken over the hills yet, and dew still clung to the edges of the leaves before slowly falling to the ground.Sam and Rina had just parked their vehicle and quickly got out. Luckily, Rina had brought a jacket and long pants to cover up her dress, which was definitely uncomfortable in the chilly air. Emma and the team had arrived earlier; those coroner members were really diligent, working non-stop. Even though they were just as far away, Emma's house was closer, so she got there first and waited for the rest of the team to gather.The crime scene was near the edge of the bridge.A body was hanging under the bridge, upside down with its head below, blood dripping from an open wound
CRIME BOOK 101 Intentionally
"Clang"The friction between the iron door and the floor sounded loud and painful to the ears.Dakota being conscious, but it is still hard to get himself fully awake. Footsteps approached, and he counted how many people were coming—one, two, three, five people, each with different weights to their steps. Soon, he heard a sneer. “Look, our handsome professor seems to be awake.” They cover their voices to be unrecognizable with somekind of masks.This was followed by the laughter of several others, their voices masked, probably to keep their identities hidden. But for Dakota, who had a photographic memory, that might not be a big deal; he didn’t just remember the voices, but also the character, the rhythm of their footsteps and the way they spoke. He think he might recognize those people, who now seemed to be laughing at him. “Hahahaha.” ***“Smack!” A hard slap was unavoidable. Kimberly, with all her strength, brought her palm down on Elena’s cheek. Again, she might have pulle

"Wow, look at that smooth flawless skin!""His lip is sexy, can't help but want to kiss him""He's perfect!"Sam's eyes widened."Find out where they're broadcasting!" Sam exclaimed.Erw raced against time, coding the video location and mapping out several broadcast signal spots. They only had a short window to act; they needed to move fast."Damnit, those people," Sam clenched his fists, and the video keep the focus on Dakota, shooting up to his chest, with an unbuttoned shirt that showed his bare chest. They shoot every angle up and close."Please lower! He is very sexy, can I have him?""This is great, there is a handsome professor here""Let's bid for him!""Wow I'm ready to pay high for this angel"**Sam prepared his firearm, complete with the bulletproof vest he always wore before a raid, just like he and the police officers were about to do now. Rina had already gotten into the passenger seat; there were three vehicles from headquarters, with many more following behind on the r
CRIME BOOK 101 Not Much Time
Sam drove as fast as he could, connecting with Rina on the phone. "Have you guys made it there yet?" he asked. Rina and some police have been monitoring the movement near the pier on the other side, a few meters along the harbor where the culprit ran and threw the body.A few men stood on a boat still parked at the dock, two of them dressed in full clothing and masks that concealed their faces. Rina jumps out of the car even when the wheel hasn't fully stopped yet, on standby with her gun. The girl was ready with her weapon, signaling to several nearby officers to spread out in all directions. Rina with her small and light feet got close and stopped behind the other caravan nearby, getting close enough to fire. "Freeze! Stop right there!" As soon as Rina's voice echoed, the men seemed startled; one man immediately ran away, leaving the other standing in place, raising both hands in the air. "Stop him!" The fleeing man headed towards the parked boat, quickly jumping onto anoth
CRIME BOOK 101 A Role
Sam stifled a laugh; he wanted to chuckle, but Kimberly looked scarier than Dakota, even when Dakota was at his angriest. Kim hadn’t said anything to him, but he could tell just by looking at her eyes. "Um, well, that’s good, Dax. The culprit hasn’t been caught yet, so you’re still in danger. You should really listen to Kim, and Roger’s guys are trained; they’ll definitely be on high alert while watching over you. You can feel a bit safer, right?" Kim grabbed her bag from the couch, walked over to the bed, and kissed Dakota’s forehead briefly. "Get some rest; you still have a fever. I have some business to take care of. Sam, I want to talk to you outside for a minute." Sam, who was just about to get comfortable, straightened up. He glanced at Dakota, who shrugged in confusion, just as Kim disappeared through the door, and he quickly followed her, not wanting the young woman to get mad at him. Outside the room.Sam furrowed his brow as Kim handed him a piece of paper, both sta

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.

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.

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. Find out the woman&rsquo

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

Bomb Series
Sam frowned; he had misspoken.“I mean, don’t stay up too late. You’re still in recovery. The city is now in chaos; it’s better to stay in the apartment and lock all the doors. I’ve already asked Roger to add more people if needed.” Sam added.“What does that have to do with me? I have Edi here; don’t do unnecessary things. Since when does Roger have to listen to you?” said Dakota.Sam bit back the urge to shout. That stubborn one.“Since the honorable Prime Minister said I have to keep an eye on you, twenty-four hours a day, every second, every minute, even microseconds if necessary. So Roger and anyone else has to listen to me,” he said, annoyed.
