"What about you, young detective?"

"The criminal is one.." she murmured

"How.." he mocked

"Because.. Because all of the victims had disappeared without showing any signal of their phones or devices as if all the criminals had the same method in vanishing them, in addition to the long time since they lost contact with their families which mean they were killed the very moment they met the criminal, not to mention that they were different in all traits which increases the probability that the criminal is killing for fun and amusement or even for organs trafficking, finally I cintacted some of their families where most of the victims were acting normal on the same day they disappeared. And the most important point, is that the logical reasons my teammates were considering are actually illogical, if the adult man had really traveled then he should have called his family from the hotel and we can actually find his ticket in the airport, also if that girl ran away with a guy we might have received a report about the disappearance of him, also we can ask the guy's family about their son, if the young man committed a suicide we can find his body he could not have hidden his bodu when he was dead, finally if the kid did run away and lost his way then someone might have found him and told the police station, which indicate that all of those interpretation are wrong and illogical!"

"That's convincing, I like it.."

"I refuse this," interrupted Flora "just as I recommended before, they are separate disappearances. First of all, if that guy ran away with a woman then the family would not report his disappearance because they know that he took the girl and went away with her, second if the indebted young man committed a suicide, it would be probably in far forest or in any abandoned building or a river so it would be hard to find his body, thirdly the young kid has his parents divorced, so we expect that the father took him from his mother by kidnapping or any member of his paternal family did so.."

"Then, how do you explain the disappearance of the adult guys?" quizzed Emina

"For now, I am not pretty sure, but if we check the airport we will surely know if he had traveled or not!"

"Why aren't you mentioning the other two victims?" asked captain Christen "Do they belong to another cases?"

"No, I labeled them undee the same case.." replied Emina "One victim lives alone in his home as he is an immigrant and no one knows alot about him, the other victim was reported by his friend as his family refused to cooperate with the policemen and the FBI!"

"Did you check the crime scene?"

"We are sorry, captain." Joined Joseph "But there is no specific crime scene, since no one knew where they disappeared, but up until now we have been searching for any clue about them or anyone who saw them for the last time.."

"What do you think, smart oldie, about this case?"

"Being in my forties does not make me so old! But I think the crimes are unrelated and I approve the idea that they have different interpretations and reasons, as all of the victims were having many troubles to make them disappear.."

"What if the criminal was an organ traficker?"

"In that case, we had sprinkled baits for him all over St. Louis." Added Johan "Many FBI agents of weak posture and looks are covering the are as depressed citizens, in addition to policemen working under Wright Moses who were costumed as citizens are waiting for someone to catch them. So, if the criminal was actually an organ trafficker, then he our trained soldiers will be waiting for him as weak citizens! However, if none of our soldiers disappeared then we will consider the case as natural occurances and search for these six victims.."

"That's interesting.."

"What do you think, captain Christen?" wondered Emina

"Asking my opinion, my lady? I think there is one criminal behind this fuss.."

"I knew you would say so, but why?"

"How about I tell you later on? We can discuss this matter privately, all alone.."

Christen Thomas approached Emina while focusing his galaxy eyes on her, his fingers passed slenderly down her body in order to feel her silky naked shoulders, his hand tapped her bare skin as his gentle caressing tickled her dermis, then he spread her arms and legs on his to make her body closer to his, whereas she loooked at him with mockery and pity as if her eyes can burn him or poison… She was not expecting their meeting to end up like this, as she was not focused on him like before.

"Captain, please do not touch our leadee like this," disapproved Mehmet "this eye sore!"

"Thank you for defending me," commented Emina "Please, leave for a moment, I have some matters to be done with captain Christen!"

"But.. We can not leave you both alone!"

"It's an order!"

"Roger that…"

After the team had all left, Thomas approached Emina again holding her hand and waist tightly as if he was a wild animal holding his prey from running away, his hand then let go of her hand and rose onto her cheeks and tickled them with his fingertips. Then, he narrowed the distance between his face and hers where they both could look at each other obviously, his aromatic pheromone dashed into her nose as his glistening eyes were filled with tears of missing upon seeing her face after a long time, whereas her eyes were still glaring at him with the same cold looks that carved her face as if she was stabbing him with her peircing looks.. Then, he reached his face for hers as he touched her bloomy lips, and rushed his lips to hers.

She held his jaw before reaching hers and squeezed his lips with a hateful gaze, her blue eyes were darkened with gloomy looks that made him scared for a second. His face expressionn turned from fear to disappointment and sadness, then he asked her with a cracked voice: "So, there is no way for us to return back together?.."
