Mr. Genn?”Rina saw the young man respond, even though she already knew the reason.The young man raised his face, looking at Rina with sharp eyes that were red from holding back tears.“What reason did you have to kill them? There must be something that made you so angry that you had the heart to kill five men who had nothing to do with you."Roman looked at Rina and Luk, taking turns. Then clenching his hands on the table, Rina saw hands with peeling skin, either because the work was so hard or because he was experimenting with chemicals. The young man looked very thin, he had even coughed a few

Sam widened his eyes, what was Kim doing there?"Oh, you said you were flying to Boa, what are you doing here?" Sam asked. Kim put out her bag, and sat on the couch with a sullen face.

CRIME BOOK 101 The Cargo
Sam approached.“Do you have a list of cargos? Owner and type, size," asked Sam. Another young man sitting in another section nodded."Yes we do"While Dakota observed the video footage in the passenger luggage area before being loaded onto the plane, Sam reviewed the luggage and passenger information. According to the officer, some bags had already been loaded onto the plane, while others were temporarily held back. Dakota paid close attention as the young officer seemed unsure of which section to focus on, simply playing a video showing the entire room and its contents.Dakota didn't think he found anything he thought was there. He couldn't possibly miss it.“What's in this, a three by two wooden box. That's huge," asked Sam, looking at the cargo data. His words made the young officer in front of him turn his head. He typed on his keyboard searching. Dakota came over and took the paper from Sam's hand. The officer hadn't even answered when Dakota pulled Sam's hand out."That's it, l

What makes you want to be arrested so badly? Have you felt lonely?” Sam asked, looking deeply into the man's eyes.The man flattened his lips, and the smile that had been forming for a long time was slowly gone.“What do you mean I'm lonely? Do I look lonely? I enjoy whatever I do. You guys police have worked hard day and night looking for evidence of murder in ridiculous ways. All that little bit of evidence that means nothing. I save your time, so you don't have to do anything unimportant and just focus on me. That's my good intention."Sam looked at the man. He closed the file in front of him, smili
CRIME BOOK 101 Another Vision
Dakota placed his coffee mug on the table, leaning back. Sam gazed at him, anticipating his words. Dakota tends to be reserved about his matters, lost in thought or reminiscing. The burly man felt a deep connection to Dakota's mother, almost as if he had known her for ages. He mentioned that Belinda had brought Dakota's favorite chocolate cake for the kids. However, upon reflection, Belinda had cared for Jon and the other children twenty-five years ago, a time when Dakota had not yet been born, and Kim was merely three years old. Therefore, the cake had existed long before Dakota's time, it was not specifically his. "Hey, Sam, what's on your mind? Why the sudden thoughts about chocolate cake now?"“Officer Keith thought he would keep all this under wraps for how long, and so did you.”Dakota's speech made Sam's eyes widen. He was shocked and almost spilled the hot coffee he had just picked up for him to drink."Duh" Slowly, Sam put his coffee cup back on the table.”Wh-what do you mea
CRIME BOOK 101 It's Over

Send help now!” Edi exclaimed on the telephone.Edi was still trying to get the vehicle off the side of the road. The rear wheels screeched loudly making thick smoke come out."Damn it"Edi managed to take the car out of the ditch and reversed at high speed, hitting one of the men behind him, but at the same time the door on the side of the Dakota was successfully opened from the outside. One person put his hand in and grabbed Dakota's hand, but Dakota, who was so calm, grabbed the man's hand and broke it.”Ah!”Pushed the man who was already in pain out of the car. Edi reversed the vehicle at high speed, trying to get out of the crowd. But one person next to the steering door managed to break the glass and hold the steering wheel. Edi hit the man with his elbow, p

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
