From the police guard who came to inform them of the situation Haley knew it must be the new prisoners that was brought it as he was the guard for interrogation room two. She looked across to the captain expecting an immediate order or reaction but he was all calm and only stared at her as if he didn't just hear what he said. Even the guard was confused that there was no immediate reaction from anyone of them.
Haley quickly dashed out if his office without waiting for any other instruction. It dawn on her that even klinsman was not moved because she was now the sole owner of the case. If her culprit escaped it would be a big bonus for him because she would have to start again. She wondered how easily people could switch up just because of the promise of a promotion. These thoughts kept rushing through her mind as ran to the rooms for interrogation the guard right behind her .
As she was running down other members of the team kept running too in different directions. She noticed the exits out of the building were still opened and it angered her.
"Why are the exits still open. Shut them down. I request for a totatl shutdown she screamed at her men who at this time were around her with confused look on their faces .
"Ma'am only the captain can call for a complete shutdown and he has not given the order " one of her men reminded her .
" Then search everywhere. Go to the IT room to check the CCTV he should not have gone that far. Someone should give me an update now " she barley as all of them went in different directions .
She couldnt help but think that her efforts are already being frustrated by the captain who had so far not shown interest by even coming out from his office. She bit her lip in frustration and headed to the interrogation room to have a look by herself .
When she entered she saw that the table and chairs in the room were upside down. Intact one of the chairs was broken and blood could be seen on the wall.
It immediately occurred to her that there must have been a struggle in the interrogation room before his escape. But then none of her room have reported having s fight with him that meant someone else must have entered the room.
Her eyes widened in shock at the realization of what was happening. Her eyes went up and she noticed that the ceiling had an opening that was smartly covered .
She quickly arranged the table under it so she could have a proper look at it. Immediately she touched it the ceiling gave way to review a and open big enough for someone to pass through.
"The roof, he escaped through the roof . check for all the exit points in the roof " she shouted as she smiled wickedly with a feeling that he would not have gone anywhere far.
She decided to see if she could peep through the roof but a hand pushed her down. Before she could stand up she felt a body on her with a rough hand on her mouth.
She wanted to fight back immediately but became calm when she saw it was her suspect who was on top of her. He didn't escape but have been waiting there . who would have thought he would still be there.
She looked at him closely. He had the same face as Pedro but his eyes were cold showing no form of recognition for her.
His body physically was also very different as the man before her was very well built. A great deviation from the Pedro she knew. Even his hairstyle was different. The Pedro she knew was always on a short hair cut. Something in her still didn't want to believe the change in physical features . The fact he still behaved like he had never met her was another confusing aspect.
"Stand up slowly and don't scream. I won't hurt you " He instructed as he stood up from her body with eyes still fixed on her.
She nodded her head and stood up slowly thinking of what she could do to subdue him.
" You have the wrong man,I didn't kill the miniter's daughter . The killer is still out there and came here to kill me " He said without breaking his look on her .
"We cannot believe you till we do our own investigation. You would have to stay here " she replied him with difficulty in her throat.
She noticed her words made him more angry as his face grew more deadly.
"I will be dead if i continue to stay here can't you see ...? He asked reducing his voice to a whisper
Before he could complete his statement she took him by surprise by slapping and handcuff on his hand and attaching it to the table in a swift reaction He didn't react has he swallowed hard with his fist corked.
"The police will protect you . From now hence forth you will be under my guard. If you are truly innocent as you claim. But for now i don't believe you " Haley said as she tried to walk away to inform the others that she has him.
"How could I have killed her when at the same time I was busy abducting you? He asked .
The question came as a complete shock to her. She looked back at the man before her and for the first time he smiled. She knew his smile all too well.
"Pedro Torres? She asked with her eyes wide opened
