"Hey, what was that about yesterday at Grilltopia" Koen asked
"I'll explain it to you when u get back I'm running late, I didn't even get a chance to put my badge on or anythinnow get your lunch, and actually stay at school today" Niko said leaving
Niko got in the car and sped off to the station, Niko's phone began to ring
"Detective Ramirez, we're investigating Marco's murder now" Austin said
"So Mr. Valenti is no longer a concern?" Niko asked
"Well Robinson thinks it'll lead us to the people I guess, he was probably kidnapped that's what we think" Austin said
"Alright, I'll be there soon, do u want anything, I'm going to SugarLand Donuts, I'm getting Koen the Donut Delight Box, he said he wanted to try them, and I have to explain what happened" Niko said
"You're gonna explain a murder to him over donuts?" Austin asked
"I know it sounds weird but yes, he really likes donuts" Niko said
"Alright, lemme get the signature hot chocolate" Austin said
"Alrighty" Niko said
Niko got out the car and ran up the steps
"Alright, hot chocolate donut box" Niko said standing in line
"Show Valenti and maybe he'll talk" The man said
"He's still in the dumpster" the man said
"Well maybe Valenti'll talk if he sees his dead friend" the man said
Niko stood in place as he listened to the two guys conversate
"He works for prosper and he won't talk, we gotta get him some way" The man said
Niko texted Austin, Austin was on his way to the donut shop along with the police
"Go ahead and order your stuff don't look obvious" Austin texted
"One Donut Delight Box and a Choccolocco Hot Chocolate please" Niko said smiling at the lady
"Your order will be ready in 10"
Niko sat a table away from the two guys recording their conversation, the two men got up and walked out
"POLICE HANDS UP NOW"
The two men got on the ground and spread their legs
"Seems you two boys know about a murder" Austin said rolling his sleeves up
"Who killed, Marco De Tulio" Austin asked one
"Ion know shit man, I can't help u" He said
Austin played a recording
"Did you kill Marco De Tulio" He said sitting down
"No but I killed your girlfriend last night" He said laughing
"DID YOU OR DID YOU NOT KILL MARCO DE TULIO" Austin said
"Her pussy was good bro, shit tastes like them lifesavers" The man said
"Keep talking about my girlfriend and I'll kill you myself" He said
"Thats a threat I'mma have u behind bars, boy" The man said
"That was her on your desk, yeah she said you boring and my dick better" He said
Austin walked out the room, and into Niko's
"Okay Mr. Rulo, did your partner kill him" Niko asked
"Tell that white guy to get out" The man said
"Austin" Niko said quietly
Austin walked out of the room
"Maybe he did, I ain't had nun to do with it, if u check, Marco eye you'll see his DNA, but mine was no where" He said
"Did you just stand and watch Mr. De Tulio die" Niko asked
"I ain't kill him" He said
Niko walked out the room confused
"No luck with my guy, back in my town we call guys like him white trash" Austin said
"I've heard that before too" Niko said
"Mr. Rulo said he didn't kill, Mr. De Tulio, your guy did, he said if we check his eye we'll find his DNA" Niko said
"Huh, who knew" Austin said
"I am beginning to think Mr. Rulo ordered the hit" Niko said
"Yes because why else would he repeatedly say he didn't kill him" Niko said
"Because he literally didn't, he never touched him, he ordered it" Austin said
The two men rushed to forensics and gave them the information regarding Marco's eye
"Anyway I'm going to text Koen make sure he's okay" Niko said
"I'm going to call my girl, that guyade some silly remarks about her" Austin said
"You're a good guy Austin" Niko said patting him
"Koen you good" Niko texted
"Dude Niko just texted me, am I alright" Koen said
"Do you wanna know why those idiots rushed us out so fast" Julius asked
"Yeah, Niko says he's going tell me, but ik he's capping" Koen said
"Apparently that guy that owns Marco's pizza, got shot" Julius said
"Damn who shot him" Koen said
"I don't know that's what they're investigating today though" Julius said
"Damn it must be awesome having your dad as the Chief, Niko never tells me shit" Koen said
"Oh, I just look through the cases and shit" Julius said
"Oh, that makes sense you got easy access" Koen said
"Who are you looking at" Julius asked
"Are you watching Kailani Mahelona" He said
"No, wait is that her name" Koen said
"Yeah, bro she's bad I know, you know she's Hawaiian" Julius said
"No, I didn't know, I guess she is cute" Koen said
Julius stared at him
"Alright you're right, she is bad" He said laughing
"He isn't picking up" Niko said
"What's up with you" Niko asked Austin
"She said she loves me, and and I gotta go to that donut place" Austin said
"I gotta get her something, she made me feel special" Austin said
"Alright everyone, let's give our thanks to Detective Ramirez, he is helping further this case by giving us some new leads and crucial evidence" Chief Robinson said
Everyone looked up and clapped
"Good job buddy" Austin said
"Aye I'll see you in class bro" Julius said
"Alright, gotta get my bag, even though it's not allowed I don't care" Koen said
Koen got his stuff and packed it zipong his bag and proceeding down the hallway
Zipppp
"So how are you liking t so far, new kid" Kailani said smiling while grasping her books
Koen paused and smiled nervously
"Uhh it's really cool here, ya know" He said
"You needa zip up your book bag" She said zipping it
"Wait bags are permitted" She said
"They are oh I'll put mine bag" He said walking back
"I'm kidding Mr. Xono hardly cares or pays attention" She said
"Oh yeah I thought so" He said laughing
"Tell me about yourself, where do u come from" She asked
"I'm from Texas Bandera to be specific" He said
"Oh so you're a country boy" She said mocking an Accent
"Yeah I guess you could say that" He said laughing
"I make sure to visit Hawaii each month" Kailani said
"I bet it's beautiful" Koen said
"It is" She smiled
"I'm hungry, hey you wanna hit that donut shop with me" She said
"After school of course" She added
"Sure I would love to, I'm down man" Koen said
"Alright perfect" She smiled
"Why would someone wanna murder a man with a family" Niko asked
"Probably as an example or something, these people around these parts aren't like a small town "oh I robbed an apple" no these crimes are in each other" Austin said
"It's still sad a man had to die over something so silly" Niko said
"We'll catch em man don't worry, now let's get to that donut shop" Austin said
The two Detectives pulled in
"I'mma get her the Sweetheart Delight" He said holding the door for Niko
"It's a special for couples and stuff like that" He said standing in line
"Speaking of couples, KOEN" Niko said
"What are you doing here" Niko asked
Koen looked mad and rolled his eyes
"Now you are here with a girl why did you bring her here, her parents are probably worried" Niko said
"And I got you some donuts already" Niko said
"Oh I'm sorry, Sir it was my idea, I was hungry and I told Koen this was a good place to eat, I didn't mean to get him into trouble" Kailani said
"Oh well I suppose since school has let out you two aren't doing anything wrong" Niko said
"We aren't now would you go" Koen said madly
Niko walked back to Austin
"Dude you've gotta let the kid be, man" Austin said
"He's with a girl so, they aren't doing anything wrong, now he's probably feeling extremely embarrassed" Austin said
"I know I promised his dad I'd take good care of him before he died" Niko said
"And you are, you're doing great you're like an overprotective brother" Austin said
"Your nephew will be alright"
The two got the donuts and left as Niko watched his nephew talk with a girl
"Wow your dad is a detective that's cool" Kailani said
"He's not my dad, he's my Uncle, but more like an annoying big brother" Koen said
"My dad is dead, and my mom is currently in jail, she wanted to see me but couldn't, so she disobeyed the law anyway" He said
"Oh I'm so sorry" She said holding his hand
"But, your Uncle seems to really care for u, u are special to him, Koen" She said
"Wow, who knew telling girls your sob story would make them hold your hand" Koen said
"Alright here, take some to your Uncle, I have to go plus my car needs fixing" She said
"Oh I should accompany you" He said
"Why is that" she asked
"I don't know let me just come with u" He said
Niko waited for his nephew
"Where is he" Niko said
Koen opened the door
"Where the hell were you" Niko said getting up
"I was at the car place with Kailani" Koen said
"Alright, I know you have no reason to lie" Niko said
"Here I got you donuts, sorry I didn't eat the ones u got" He said
"Oh and I already know you guys are searching for Marco's killer" Koen said
"I'm guessing Julius told you" Niko said
"I'll take some donuts for snacks tomorrow, when u tell Julius about my " date" With Kailani " Koen said
"I'm glad you're fitting in, Koen and I'm so sorry about barging in on you with your friends" Niko said
"I know you only care about me, Niko I appreciate it, but I do have it on my own, I'm okay really" Koen said
"I know go to bed now ya got school tomorrow" Niko said
