Detective Byers leaned with his hands on the table. He studied the evidences335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBGe79AVOHr
from the murder of Ben Miller. Assistant Detective Chloe cleared her throat335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZWRkH65TCJ
before she started speaking in order to attain Det.Byers attention.
“Ben Miller” she said picking up the shots of the crime scene from the335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOcN56iwp7y
table, “The victim was found with a knife in his chest on Sunday afternoon at335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfsnPotDESO
twelve.” she examined the photos then looked up at detective Byers, “On335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfZf6WwPNCt
Saturday Ben miller left for work at 8am, at 6pm he went to have drinks with335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuV6fFSDO3E
his work colleagues.” she said while pointing at the screen playing the335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7naeYnXx2V
footages. “as you can see Ben went straight to his home at 9pm, he was home alone335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUehm5DHIGP
and no one left or entered the house.”
Detective Byers focused on the screen, “there is no sign of the killer.” He335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIaozNblr7B
mumbled.
Chloe gazed at Detective Byers, “Soon after the body was found, it was sent335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMmzu8t6jjb
for inspection. We came to know that there were fifty-seven stabbing points in335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡipElfKQU9b
the victims chest.” She said tapping her finger on the photographs. Detective335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ11my7iY9rW
Byers took the snapshots and briefly scanned them.
“but almost two hours ago they sent a335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcTKB3gdRyx
file from the observatory saying that the stabs in the body were with two335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ67jcLozBOL
different weapons. One was found on the body and…”
“And the other weapon was not335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4DPwYVgPdf
found.” he said completing her sentence, “do you remember Stephan Cages case?”335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgj33jNuPfM
he frowned at the screen, “I don’t know why but these cases look alike”
“Yes, we worked on it two years ago.” she said studying the files, “but how335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE3pzLFI8c3
do they look alike?”
He ignored her question and said, “His daughter” he rubbed his forehead, “What335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYLZE8VR9r0
was her name?”
“Lilly Cage.” she said facing towards him.
“hm…run a background check on her, let’s see what she’s got.” he straightened335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡipEAmNDrkx
back and left the door open.
“No shit!” she said to herself and heaved a sigh.

Mike stared Lilly for a while and said,
“I really, really need your help this time.” he said as he held her hands.
“Mike, I can’t” she wept, “you know what happened to dad.”
“Whatever happened, it was not your fault” He said wiping away her tears.
There was a long silence, Lilly sat looking at her hands and thinking about her335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmUXclpoPxe
father. Mike was on his knees watching her breath slowly.
“I want to go home.” Lilly sniffled softly.
“Hm , I’ll take you home.” he said concernedly.
Lilly rolled down the car window. She closed her eyes and felt the winter335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUcIA0181E2
breeze on her face, she thought about the conversation between her and mike at335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc4CnHcIC7E
the café. She knew she can’t do it, knew she can’t risk losing a near and dear one335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhibrWP98ga
again. Lilly’s phone ranged,
“Hello?” she said into the phone.
“Hi Lilly!” the caller said.
“Chloe?” Lilly said in amazement, “it’s been so long”
“I know right, you me working together, it literally feels like yesterday.”335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwaIAeO8KXq
Chloe said warmly, “why don’t you think about returning.”
Lilly’s face dropped, “Chloe, let’s not start this topic.”
“Well it doesn’t seem like you have a choice.” Chloe said.
Lilly frowned, “what do you mean?”
“I mean that detective Byers who is here from California, he wants to meet335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuziXmaBjih
you regarding the slayer of your father, according to him he thinks you could335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ7mDi6qBxY
be a little helpful.” She replied.
“Helpful for what?” Lilly asked in confusion.
“You don’t know” Chloe said.
“No?” she said still frowning.
“There’s a murder in town.” Chloe informed.
“What!” she exclaimed.
Lilly hung up on the phone and turned towards mike, she was shocked by the335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOJx7Lx2DMA
news Chloe gave. Mike stopped the car and faced Lilly.
“What happened?” he asked curiously.
Lilly looked at her phone and then at Mike, “Murder” she said trying to believe335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzC05PVixWK
what she heard.
Mike peered at her, “What?” he asked.
“There’s a murder.” Lilly responded.
Mike swore under his breath and leaned against the car seat.
“She said that the detective wants to meet me regarding dads slayer. Can it335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoSRxFl6CA9
be the same killer?” she asked anxiously.
Mike glanced at her, “Can be” he said.
