Chapter 13: Natsume's first investigation at the crime scene

For the next few days, Miki and Natsume have been doing the same thing again and again especially Miki who somehow fell in love with the Howalons that Natsume bought for her. Natsume felt that day by day, he was having a good time working out the files and reports in the HQ. Everyone has been friendlier to him ever since the first day he entered the building. But not so friendly because they would not want their boss to be angry.

Miki was having her lunch as her work has been lessen by Natsume when one of the officers came in with a serious look in the eyes.

"Boss! There has been a police report on a murder at one of the homes. Even Mr Conner needs your help in this."

Miki was surprised. "Did he usually have his partner with him as always?"

"No, Boss. Ms Elisa had more work on her hands these days and passed the investigation to him."

Miki dismissed the officer and started to clear her desk. Natsume just finish his report when Miki was ready to leave.

"Where are you going?"

"Going for an investigation in a murdered crime scene."

"Can I go?"

"No."

"Why?"

"It's dangerous. I wouldn't want anyone to die in front of me."

"I can protect myself."

"Fine. But stay out of trouble."

Both went to Miki's car and went to the crime scene. When they went into the crime scene, both could believe their eyes. The scene was so terrible that Miki almost vomited. Natsume didn't really like the grotesque scene had caused his Miki like this. Wait! Did he say his Miki? He must be out of his mind.

They took the report and research on their finds and finish what they need to find.

When they both finished reading, a fair skinned man walked towards them.

"Bonjour, Miki! It's great to see you again! But may I know who is this gentleman here?"

"Out of the busy schedule, I am happy to work with you today. This gentleman you speak of is Hyuuga Natsume. Natsume, this Mr here is Conner, the famous world detective that usually had his partner with him for investigations."

"That partner of mine didn't have time for all these now. She has so much of work that she refuses to sleep and eat."

Natsume answered with a smirk. "Well, our young boss of WPHQ is the same. When I first came in, she had a lot to finish."

"Well, that's our partners! Anyway, since we are all almost at the same age, I would recommend to start work now."

They started with a few investigations by searching the room. They all gather outside as they do not want anything to fall out.

Miki: So what findings did you find?

Natsume: A pen that was cut into half but blood inside the ink.

Conner: An axe that was filled with blood

Miki: a small needle that could paralyze the victim since the victim gave a frightened face.

Natsume and Conner: A duct tape to nail down the victim at the room/ living room.

Miki: So there are two areas where she was held at? But the main thing, who is the killer?

Natsume and Conner: We can ask them about what they do before the incident.

Miki: okay, then it's settled. Anyway, are you two twins or something? You sounded like you know each other.

Both of the boys: Maybe, maybe not.

Miki groan in frustration while the boys smirked to each other. They took a few hours with the suspects and Miki decide to go back to the crime scene. Miki looked around the area and realized there is a piece of paper there crumbled. She took her gloves and went to read it. She could see faint marks and there was a pen on the table. She decided to use the ultraviolet light lamp that was with the forensic inspectors. The words were then seen clearly.

"Help me! Saku is the culprit!"

Mikan smiled as she looked at the paper. For a doctor, this is enough for your work. Thank you for telling me.

They went outside the crime scene where they would reveal the truth. Even Natsume and Conner know what to do without Mikan's evidence.

"The culprit of this murder is Mr Yuko Saku. This paper is the evidence."

Everyone was very shocked but Saku fought back.

"What proves that I am the one even without the paper as the evidence?"

Mikan was dumbfounded but the boys took over. Natsume was the first to start.

"You first went into the house of the victim. You are the guest of the house. But you had a plan with you all along."

"Then you and the victim took time to talk to each other. You started to get closer to her but she moved away from you by moving to a chair made for one person only."

"But she was getting onto your nerves. You wanted her to yourself and finally you could take it, you nail her down on the chair."

"You had a duct tape with you all along and taped her down. She was screaming and bit your finger which explains your injury on your right hand index finger."

"You tore away her shirt into pieces to control her but she was even more frightened. That's where you took her to the room."

"You tore away the rest of the clothes that she was wearing and raped her. It is also where you tied her to the sides of the bed so that you can proceed."

"You used your twin brother's clothes and continued to rape her. You used the injection needle to make the victim feel helpless because you drugged her to sleep. But she won't sleep."

"Thinking of your brother being with her again, you killed her with the axe you found at the storeroom. You chopped her off and wore different clothes to cover your alibi."

All of them moved away from the now culprit and he was being prosecuted for the death of his brother's wife death as well as other offences. All of them felt it was a job well done for all of them.

I decide to do a little police stuff since I do some kind of work like this in this age of 14. Making more suspense could be fun.

R&R!

Thank you!
