Case-1 Poisoned Book.
Chapter-1: dark day.
Afternoon time.
Sad day for the police department. Whole sky was covered with black clouds and heavy rain was happening with a heavy cracking sound which was coming from the clouds. Huge number of people were standing, holding black umbrellas on their hands and they all were standing around a black casket. Six people were standing around the casket and there were many police vehicles. They all were looking sad and some female officers were crying and some of them were cleaning their tears.
Six people who were standing near that casket, lifted that casket, put it on their shoulders and started walking towards the graveyard. Huge number of people start following them and there was a place already dug out for that casket. They all were unaware of someone and he was already there, hiding himself behind a tree. He had a beard face and sharp eyes. He had covered himself with a black raincoat. He was standing away from that huge number of people and they all didn't know about his presence. [Cracking sound of a cloud]
They lift their faces upward and rain drops fall on their faces and they cover themselves with their umbrellas. In that group, there were some people who knew about that unwanted man but they did not know about his presence but Dr. Amanda saw him accidentally. … She used to work as the assistant forensic expert in the police department with a senior doctor named Albert. He was intelligent but he used to get angry without any reason, this was his bad habit. Amanda was surprised to see him and she gave a signal to an officer whose name was GK.
GK was a good officer but he always tried to attract a girl towards himself but as usual he failed. When he looked at that direction, he saw that man.
"WOW… after two years, I am watching him."
He moved his head up and down and started walking towards him but all the officers were looking at him because they wanted to know where he was going. Some officers were trying to follow him but he ordered them to stay there. Holding an umbrella in his hand, he walked towards that man and stood in front of him.
"Hello James." (Name of our MC.)
"Happy to see you G.K. I think that old man can take a rest."
Those words were showing sadness. For some time, they both stayed there and James went from there, showing his back to everyone and GK came back.
[Beagle sound]
[Gun fire sound]
All the officers came back to their cars and with a loud police siren, they all went from there. After some time, they came back to their office.
After an hour.
Chief's cabin was empty and nine officers were there, GK was also there but he went out from there and stood outside. Kelly, Emma and Summer were the three female officers and two of them were standing in front of the window. Kelly was holding a cup of coffee in her hand and Emma was standing on her side, she was staring at those water drops which were sliding down from glasses. Summer was sitting on the chair, she was holding a pen in her hand and swinging it. It was like she was thinking about something. In her mind image of James was coming.
[Entrance door opened]
It was Albert and Amanda. Albert went inside the Chief's cabin and took a chair and sat down. He covered his face with his hand and all the officers were looking at him. He was crying. Meanwhile GK came inside and went inside the cabin and he tried to stop him but he failed. After a few seconds, all the officers came inside the cabin to stop him because their Chief was his best friend. The size of that cabin was enough for everyone.
"Sir!! We are also sad and we know what you have lost."
It was said by Connor who is the strongest officer in the group. Ben was standing along with him and he was his best friend, a very intelligent and smart but medium height officer.
Tim and William both were the junior officers but Fred was the senior officer just like Ben, Connor but his rank is low and he always used to get scared by the word ghost. He is a very funny character and his presence makes everyone laugh but that day, he can't make anyone laugh. Suddenly a loud sound came from their back.
"What's going on?"
They all get shocked and quickly stand around that man. His name was Martin and none of them liked him. He was a very arrogant and his main object is to break the branch of the police which they had made for investigation.
He always looks serious but that time he was there to order them.
"Solve this case, otherwise I will fire you all. Understood!!"
GK was listening to him and when Martin saw his face… he stood in front of him, like he wanted an answer from him.
"GK I heard that James was there?"
…
"Yes sir."
His eyes became big and stepped back and crushed his teeth and punched on the wall. All the officers were wondering why he was so angry and he left the office. They all were wondering what happened to him.
Summer was looking at GK and she thought that before they solved the case, she wanted to know about James.
"Sir… sorry I am asking this but we also wanted to know about James."
Her curiosity forced her to ask that question from him but GK was not angry with her because when he looked around their faces, he can see the same questions on their faces too. … He smiled and said that he was his friend and he use to work with them. They all get surprised when they heard that.
Next day.
All the officers went to the crime spot to solve the case. It was a house where murder had happened. An officer was found dead when his maid opened the door of his study room at night time. All the officers crossed the yellow strip and entered inside but some officers stopped outside the study room because the chief of the group died in that room and no one dares to step inside that room. Connor asked everyone to come inside but they didn't because of fear. In anger, he went out of that room and shouted at all of them.
"What kind of officers are you all?"
But it was a waste of time. He thought that he had to find the place from where that officer got poisoned in their presence. Time was running out and they couldn't find the place from where that officer got poisoned, only their Chief knew about it but that poison killed their Chief. All the officers got fired up and came out from that room. They all were pressing their lips inside and remove their hand gloves from their hands and went out of their house. Meanwhile GK came there and when he saw their dull faces, he found his answer. He stands in front of them.
…
"So!!"
Connor- "Yes sir… we failed."
GK had a bad habit of smoking and he started smoking but all the officers thought that they had to ask him about someone who can help them solve the case because this case had taken their chief's life. They all went close to him and tried to talk to him. They asked him to take the help of his best friend but it was like a joke for him because he knew that his best friend James was not going to help them and if they wanted his help then the department had to hire him again but it is impossible.
[Screaming sound]
All the officers ran inside and saw that one police officer had died. GK shouted and ordered everyone to stay away from that room and they called an ambulance. This scene shocked everyone and when an ambulance came there, they took that dead body along with them. All the officers were looking scared and they went back to their office because they had to stop their searching process. All the officers were standing in forensic lab to know the reason but when Dr. Albert told about the reason, they all were shocked.
"Officers, this officer had touched something which was poisoned."
He shows his mouth, it was blue in color just like their Chief's mouth.
[Mobile ringing]
GK picked up his call and found that they all had to be called by the department officers in their office because they wanted to ask a question about the case. They all were standing in front of high officers and Martin was also there. He was smiling at them and very happy to see them there like this.
"Officers… we knew that you all had lost your Chief but you all must solve this case as soon as possible but what we got… another death!!"
They all were standing silently in front of them because they didn't have anything to say.
"GK… at least you say something."
He had no answer and when he moved his eyes towards Martin, he saw his shining smile. At that moment, something struck his mind.
"James…. He is the answer to our question."
