Chapter 13 - ONE TEAM WITH A LIONESS

"Good morning, have a seat. How about your first case? Have you found the killer of Rendra?" David asked with a serious face, especially when he heard that Rama was also under threat.

"We're still investigating. It seems this person has planned everything for a long time and is very quick to act," said Alvaro as he opened the autopsy results of the criminal he was chasing last night.

"Before we get to our case, how about we wait for our new work team? it will be so efficient we won't explain to him anymore. Mr. David, did that person come late?" Damian said in his relaxed style.

"Maybe she came a little late. In fact she had refused to work here anymore. For some reason, yesterday she accepted my offer." David said as if hiding something.

"Has he ever worked here, sir?" Damian asked while straightening his back.

Alvaro's eyebrows rose when he heard that.

"He's not Markus right? who's he? man or woman?" asked Alvaro with a bad feeling. Especially with his unwell condition.

David shook his head with a smile.

"I can't say who she is yet, you will know when she comes. Are you sick Al? your face looks pale?" asked David looking at Alvaro with full eyes.

"A little unwell. Maybe I'll work half a day. After we discuss our case, I will go home." Alvaro said, not having time to go to the doctor or take medicine.

"You really need time to rest." said David quite understanding with Alvaro's mental condition, which must still be saddened by Zenita's death.

"Did he come too long, sir?" Damian asked while looking at his watch.

David got up from his seat, when he saw the person she was waiting for came.

"She's here already?" David said with a smile.

Alvaro and Damian straightened their backs as they turned their chairs and saw who their work team was.

Alvaro and Damian looked at each other, having learned who had come. It turned out to be a woman they knew.

"Luna?!" Alvaro and Damian called at the same time.

"That's right, your new work team is Luna Darries." David said with a smile leaning his back with a feeling of relief because the lioness he relied on finally accepted his offer.

"Luna, have a seat. I'm glad you finally accepted this job." David said getting up from his seat and welcoming Luna.

Luna smiled faintly, sitting on the chair while glancing at Alvaro and Damian.

Alvaro looked at Luna and David with a complicated look.

"How come you didn't tell us earlier, sir?" asked Alvaro with an uncertain mind.

"I purposely surprised you guys, especially Alva. It's been a long time since the two of you have been on a team, right? You know Luna used to be our mainstay as the female lion of our agency." said David with a smile praising Luna.

Luna just smiled subtly hearing David praise her in front of Alvaro and Damian.

"Thank you for your compliment Mr. David." said Luna trying to calm her heart.

"No need to thank Luna. I'm telling the truth. I'm sure Alvaro knows that." David said while looking at Alvaro.

Alvaro just swallowed his saliva not giving any comments about David's praise given to Luna.

"Welcome Luna, I can't believe I can finally become one with this police agency's flagship icon," Damian said while congratulating Luna.

Luna smiled nodding her head.

"I'm also happy to be on a team with you Damian, especially being able to be a team again with Alva." Luna said while looking at Alvaro who was more silent.

"How about Alvaro? Damian? Have you had enough of your introductions with your new work partners?" asked David looking at Alvaro, Damian and Luna in turn.

"I think we are on to the next task." Alvaro said with a serious face.

"Good, you can continue Rendra's case by keeping an eye on Rendra's family. Especially Jason and Rama." David said with a serious face.

"Alva, what about the autopsy results of the person who fell last night from Zenita's apartment?" asked David while straightening his back.

Hearing David's words, Luna immediately looked at Alvaro.

"Did someone really fall out of Zenita's Apartment last night? did you come home early knowing that? why didn't you tell me?" Luna asked with a sharp look.

Alvaro took a deep breath, trying to stay calm in the face of Luna's always serious attitude in every case.

For Luna all cases must be completed perfectly.

"At that time I couldn't explain it to you, because it was included in Luna's secret task." said Alvaro feeling awry facing Luna as his new work partner.

"But Alvaro?! Zenita is my sister?! how could I not know about what happened?" Luna said in a low voice but filled with pressure.

"It's not that you're Zenita's sister, but what I do is related to my work. And there's no way I could involve you, because you're not my work partner." said Alvaro while pressing his temples.

"Now I'm your partner! You should know that?!" Luna said loudly.

David and Damian looked at each other asking for tension between Alvaro and Luna.

"Don't involve your feelings in handling this case. The three of you must be solid to solve the case of Rendra's problem, not Zenita's problem," said David, confirming the duties of Alvaro and the others.

"I understand Mr. David, but like what I said, the case of Mr. Rendra's death can be combined with the case of Zenita's death. Actually Zenita didn't die by suicide but she was also killed." said Alvaro finally telling David everything to agree to his wish to reveal Zenita's death case.

"Do you have any evidence that says Zenita didn't kill herself but was killed?" asked David with a serious face after hearing all of Alvaro's stories.

Immediately Alvaro took the buttons of his jacket as well as the testpack that was in his pocket and gave it to David.

"Why didn't you say this from the start? why only now? I do not believe it? how can Zenita get pregnant before you guys get married?" asked David as he straightened his back, examining the buttons and the testpack he was holding.
