iDidn't Kill Them Chapter 10
They readied to head to the back door and Freddie pushed one of the buttons on his computer and they heard an alarm go off. Sam and Freddie ran to the side of the building watching as people began to exit the building. They began to sneak around the back of the building, as the last few people made their way out. Freddie held the door open looking to make sure everyone was gone and then Sam went in. Freddie followed closing the door behind him. The alarm was loud and lights were flashing as they made their way through the station to where the evidence locker. Freddie took out a walkie talkie and spoke into it.
"Spencer unlock the door to the evidence locker." he stated into the device. They heard the door unlock as Spencer replied.
"Done." they heard him say over the walkie talkie. Sam walked in first followed by Freddie and he closed the door. Sam looked around.
"Does it smell like smoke in here?" she asked.
"Kind of." he replied looking around the room for the evidence in Carly's case. He scanned the labeled boxes and found one with Amy's name on it. He pulled it out and opened it. There were many items in envelopes scattered throughout the box. He located the one labeled as the murder weapon and carefully opened the envelope so that he could cover it up when he put it back. He put on a pair of gloves setting on the side of the table and took the object out. It was a large pipe that had a curve at the end. He noticed the area that had the print and he took out his camera and began taking pictures.
Sam walked over looking into the box at many of the objects, she pulled out a folder and opened it. Freddie looked up at her and noticed the horrified look on her face.
"What is it?" he asked stopping what he was doing.
"Its the pictures from the crime scene." she said showing him a picture. It was a picture of Amy and the spatter on the wall next to her. She saw that Freddie seemed deep in thought. He took a few more pictures silently and then handed her the camera.
"Take a few pictures of the crime scene photos." he said. "There may be more evidence towards Carly being innocent."
She began taking pictures of the crime scene photos. He took a swab out and quickly swabbed the fingerprint on the pipe and put it back in the envelope sealing it again. Sam put the photos back in the folder and set it back in the box. She walked over to the door as Freddie put the box back on the shelf. She noticed a half smoked cigarette in the trash can.
"That explains the smoke." she said picking it up out of the trash can.
"Lets just go." said Freddie.
"Wait!" Sam exclaimed pulling lighter out of her pocket.
"What are you doing?" Freddie asked confused.
"Don't you think the police are going to wonder why the alarm went off?" Sam asked. "A cigarette causing a fire is the perfect cover."
"Smart idea." said Freddie.
"Thank you." she replied lighting the cigarette and throwing it back into the trash can. They exited the room and walked back the way they came. Freddie pulled out the walkie talkie and got it ready. They reached the first door.
"Spencer door number 4." he said over the device. It unlocked and they went through. They quickened their pace hearing the sirens of approaching fire engines.
"Door 5" Freddie stated over the walkie talkie. It unlocked and they made their way outside and back to the ally where Spencer was.
"Lets go!" said Sam coming around the corner. Spencer picked up the laptop and they headed back to the car turning lock down off. They glanced back at the building as the fire department began to enter.
