"Sergeant, is it really okay to let them investigate their own case?" Alix asked, concern evident in her voice as they walked through the empty streets in the morning light. "Didn't Sergeant Halley assign us to do it?"
"I think Sergeant Halley would understand," Dallas said, a hint of annoyance in her voice. "They didn't even see who attacked them, and the place where it happened isn't even real. How are we supposed to investigate that?"
While Alix had reservations, she couldn't argue with her. There were no leads to follow regarding their attack, and honestly, it didn't hold the same excitement or prestige as the murder case they were currently working on. Solving those high-profile murders could open up plenty of opportunities for both of them. Alix had already taken advantage of her time on the force, rasing her magic a whole stage in just four years.
