On The Run
Sam and Dakota exited the interrogation room, observing John Mazen heading to the front room with his lawyer. Although all evidence so far could not incriminate John Mazen in any charge, including murder, he remained a suspect and under police surveillance. At the very least, he wouldn't be able to roam further than his home area. Sam pushed back the front part of his hair that had fallen over his forehead. He looked tired and annoyed. Sam glanced at his watch, then looked towards the window where the sky had been dark for some time."Heh, it's late, come on, let's go home, Dax, today won't end if we stay here," Sam said, leading the way down the corridor. Dakota pushed up his glasses, which had slid slightly down his smooth nose, and gracefully walked following Sam to the end of the corridor."John Mazen might not have a motive, and we haven't found physical evidence that Douglas Mazen was directly involved, but he's suspicious," Dakota's words made Sam stop in front
Unregistered
Sam pursed his lips, stroking his chin.“It’s the same person, but what motive did he have to kill the victim? And where did he get the LucyAnn powder? Didn’t you find any connection between this man and the Mazen family? What is his connection to John Mazen and perhaps Douglas Mazen? Or even Rosana Bain?” Sam asked.Rina and Aris stood in front. This case became one, with two different but related incidents.“We investigated this man’s history, Boss. This man is one of the undocumented migrants in Bayward. But Erw managed to get documents from the hospital when this man had an accident that broke his knee three years ago. It is known that this man’s name is Jack Malone, likely an alias. There are no complete documents, such as identification and so on; he did not submit anything when seeking treatment. His age was listed as fifty-six, three years ago. Just like Rosana Bain, there is no trace of the previous twenty years. There is only a date and place of birth, and a temporary address
Fish In the Murky Water.
Sam pulled his lips again, smiling. Like what he and Dakota talked about before they entered this house, neither John Mazen nor Douglas would say anything easily; all of this was just part of their experiment to find out before all the evidence was gathered. Sam and Dakota were just throwing bait into murky water without knowing what fish were inside, hoping that whatever it was, it would eventually come to the surface. A slight ripple would make the hidden fish curious to come out and see what was happening, and that’s when Sam would cast his net.“Umm, I’m just curious, that’s why I’m asking. How could the richest man in this area have a wife whose vital identification, like DNA arrangements, is not registered anywhere? She has hospital records, but they are incomplete, although, indeed, for outsiders from Bayward, it’s not unusual to have no records, but even outside the city, we still haven’t found her. I’m curious, is Rosana Bain really her name? And now, the only one who can pro

He raised his head to see Rina's further explanation."The remaining bones are known to be a woman, middle-aged, around fifty, with long curly brown hair and white skin," Rina continued.Rina's words made Sam silent. He looked at Rina with wide eyes."Long curly brown hair, fifty, white skin," he seemed to be thinking, until he finally looked at Rina with wide eyes as if realizing something.Sam walked back to their room. Rina followed him."Rina, find a photo of Rosana Bain, John Mazen's first wife. Body might be her," Sam said, approaching his desk and sitting down. His words made Rina widen her eyes, looking doubtful if she might have misheard. Because these were two different cases."What, Boss? John Mazen's first wife? Uh, I don't mean to refuse, boss, but that's a different case, isn't it?" Rina asked, looking at Sam and also Dakota, who was already sitting in his place. Rina stammered."Is this starting to be related to each other?" Rina asked hesitantly.Sam looked at Rina."Wh
Poison Ivy
Sam widened his eyes."How can that be? We've booked for two nights here, just enjoy it, we'll be back in the city by tomorrow morning. The trip won't be long in the morning, you can sleep in your bed the day after tomorrow. Besides, the bed here is good, and the weather is nice. So comfortable," Sam said, spreading his arms wide and taking a deep breath.Dakota pursed his lips, annoyed, looking at Sam with his flat expression.Of course, it was comfortable. Sam had taken more than half the bed for himself all night, and because Dakota was used to sleeping very neatly, he didn't mind sleeping with the remaining quarter for himself. Also, Sam mumbled in his sleep and several times pulled him into a hug as if he were a bolster pillow. Even though there were two beds in that big room, the giant Sam was more comfortable sleeping close to him all night, so he couldn't move freely."Yeah, it's so comfortable, isn't it?"Dakota quickened his pace along the path, walking ahead of Sam."Hey, D
A Day Off
Sam sat on the edge of the bed for a long time, quietly watching Dakota’s face as he slept fairly peacefully in front of him. After getting oxygen from the mask earlier, Dakota’s condition was now far from dangerous. The rash on his face, down to his neck was almost gone. Sam patted Dakota’s hand and took a deep breath.“Heh, this kid.”The gentle pat made Dakota open his eyes; he turned and found Sam sitting silently beside him, saying nothing, just looking at him.“Sam,” Dakota’s voice was a little hoarse and weak; even moving his hand slightly hurt. It was a very uncomfortable feeling.“How do you feel?” Sam asked.Dakota looked at Sam’s face; his friend was
