"Ugh! Three days passed and we still don't have any clue about the murderer," Alfred said irritatingly as he paced around in his council's department. He appeared to be agitated from the way he was acting.
"We will find something soon," Evelyn said looking at his panic stricken face.
She glanced at Elric, who sat at his desk with eyes closed, seemingly unconcerned about the situation. Shaking her head in disappointment, she turned her gaze back to Alfred and said, "Let's discuss the acknowledged facts of the case and try to pull something out of it."
Listening to those words, Alfred stopped in his tracks. "Give me one minute and don't start the discussion before I return back." With that he marched out of the room.
Silence enveloped the two people in the room. Evelyn glanced at Elric who's eyes were still closed. She admired his features. Right after a few seconds, she remembered how he annoyed her the other day and changed her soft gaze to a peeved one.
