CHAPTER SEVEN

Drake and Bill were now back at the station in the crimes lab with Fu-Dog. Fu had the circuit board to the security camera open and laying out on the table. Drake was explaining what had been done to it. "It's actually a very simple charm" said Drake. "It was developed along with recent computer technology. Basically the charm causes the information on the camera to be blocked so that when you try to view the tape all you will get is static. If you hook it up to a computer all you have to do is enter a secret password and you will be able to view the blocked recording." "But how do we find out the code?" Fu asked. "I don't know", said drake, "I just know how it functions. The password was something personal made up by the suspect in question. It would take someone with great hacking and decoding skills to even begin to retrieve even half of the information. Drake then turned to the both of them, looking for a reaction, he noticed Fu was in deep thought. Suddenly, as if he had a brainstorm, Fu exclaimed, "Or maybe something even better" Fu noticed that both Drake and Bill had puzzled looks upon their faces and he continued "There is a guy upstate who owes me a favor. He might have what we are looking for."Fu then walked over to the phone and started dialing. Suddenly Drake's attention is turned to Bill who is now experimenting with the test tubes, suddenly one falls off and a cloud of smoke forms around the both of them. Meanwhile, Fu walks back from the phone. "its all arranged, he will ship it over in little whi-WHAT DID YOU DO!" The smoke cleared and Fu could make out drake and Bill, and both of their heads had swelled up to the size of watermelons and bubbles were shooting out of their ears. "WHAT HAPPENED HERE?!" Fu said. "What!" both of them shouted. Fu then takes out a vile of weird purple liquid and splashes it in both of their faces. Immediately the bubbles stop and their heads shrink back to normal size. "See this is exactly why I said I didn't need a partner!" Bill quickly apologized, "I'm sorry I was just a little curious." Drake then responded, "Curious? Did you think for one minute that maybe, just maybe, you weren't supposed to touch anything in this place! Do you know what I was right all along, we shouldn't be working together in fact, I don't think you should be on the force." Drake then stormed off back to his desk.
