The lights of the police station dim down. Only me and my partner remain there, eager to go. Suddenly somebody knocks
brusquely on the door. What could it be? I wondered. I stand up and see this woman
clad with some pajamas and a pair of flip flops. She had this
gruesome grimace while she kept on knocking the door non-stop. I finally got to the door and let her in.
I surmised something had gone terribly wrong, but after hearing what she said about her neighbor, I knew she was one of those people that hate their neighbors. Or so I thought. She derived some more pieces of electrifying information, and that is when we drove to the suspects house thinking it would be a cursory case to solve.
When we finally got to the suspects house. Me and my partner started knocking loudly to wake up the man in case he was asleep. Which he was not because he attended immediately, as if he was waiting for us. The man simulated his smile and started saying.
"May I help you Officers?"
"Yes, we came to search the house. Someone reported hearing some awkward noises."
"Well that is weird! Come in then. Search all you want!" He slowly stepped aside to let us in. He showed us every room and corner in the house. We gingerly searched but found nothing out of place.
Finally after the search we were about to leave and the man offered us some drinks. We were dehydrated because in the station water wasn't available, so we accepted some glasses of water. As we drank with delight, the man was staring at us. He looked nervous. He looked guilty and started breathing deeply and loudly. And that is when he shouted something unexpected.
He screamed that he was guilty and that he killed the man. We immediately got in our car with him on the back seat and went to prison to lock him up for life. At last he actually collaborated with our job because they promoted us for finding the suspect.
