Wilbur woke up the next morning and quickly got dressed, walking into the empty living room. Wilbur banged on Schlatt's door

"Get up" Wilbur said "it's 8am"

"Fuck you" Schlatt said, Wilbur heard as an object hit the door

"I'm leaving, see you later" Wilbur said

"Ok" Schlatt said, barely awake

Wilbur chuckled and grabbed a frozen waffle, heating it up then walking out the door. He made his way to his car, freezing when he saw a note on it. He quickly read it "find a new case"

He didn't think much of it, he was used to pranks from the kids of the neighborhood. However, he still picked it up by a corner and placed it in a bag, jumping as someone spoke up

"Morning" Eret said

"Hi" Wilbur said, hiding the bag

"You going in to work?" Eret asked

"Yup" Wilbur nodded "where do you work again?"

"I own the business down the road" Eret said

"Oh yeah that's right" Wilbur nodded "uh, well I should be going"

"Yes of course" Eret said "see you later"

"Bye" Wilbur said, climbing into his car. He shuddered as he drove off. He always disliked that Eret guy, he was just unnerving. Too bad he lived with Niki, otherwise Wilbur could just ignore his presence.

He hummed to himself, too lazy to put on music, as he drove up to the precinct. He climbed out of his car and laughed when he saw Schlatt's car next to his. He quickly took out his phone

Wilbur: Your cars here by the way

Schlatt: yeah I know

Wilbur: So you're gonna call like a lift or something

Schlatt: Wilbur

Wilbur: Cool, good talk, see you later

Wilbur ignored his phone dinging and put it back in his pocket, walking into the building.

"Jesu- Oh, hey Wil" Charlie said, almost running into him

"Hey Charlie" Wilbur smiled "has the chief given you a case yet?"

"Yeah, actually" Charlie said "I'm about to head into forensics"

"Oh could you possibly just hand this note in?" Wilbur asked, handing him the plastic bag

"Sure" Charlie shrugged. Wilbur paused for a second then walked away, shaking his head. He smiled as he noticed Clay and walked over, leaning over the paper he was working on

"Hello" Wilbur said, Clay jumping, punching him in the stomach seconds later

"Fuck off" Clay said tiredly

"Fine, you solve the case then" Wilbur said, sitting next to him

"Practically already have" Clay said "I went to forensics early and found out Zak's cause of death was the baseball hit to the head, although they're positive the stab wounds around the body were made while he was still alive"

"And he didn't bleed out?" Wilbur asked, taking the folder from Clay

Clay shook his head "No. I was thinking we should try to talk to witnesses"

"Are there any?" Wilbur asked

"Darryl was the one that had called the police"

"Let's go then" Wilbur said, standing up. He and Clay walked out to the parking lot, climbing into Clay's car this time. Clay quickly hid a small box as Wilbur climbed in. Wilbur raised his eyebrow, smirking
