—————- —- ——————-

So, after a good time of laughing, I get up next morning to get ready. Today I choose a navy blue full sleeve t-shirt with tight skins and boots. I leave my hair open until my shoulders and decide to drive there.
On reaching, I see the boy band entering the house. Niall is the 1st one to spot me. 'Hey!' He waves and I mirror him. I get off the car and go to them. Louis bursts out laughing, and as if his laugh is communicable, I laugh out too. 'What's wrong?' Says Zayn and Harry looks at us hard.
'Nothing!' We quickly say.

No one buys it but doesn't push it further. I then see Lisa and Mayne and I quickly take my leave. Lisa calls over to me urgently. 'Y/n, remember that box yesterday?'
I nod. 'That box had lots of cheques kept by mr.Lucifer himself.'
Realization dawns over me.
'Quickly call everyone who was near mr.Lucifer's bedroom that day.'
'Y/n we still have to investigate the rest' she says.
'Oh shoot!' I say. 'We need to do that quick.'
'How bout we switch roles?' She asks.
I smirk at her. 'You want to see the boy band, don't you?'
'Hey, no nothing like that!' She says pushing me away, blushing hard.
'Well, someone wants to start her love life!' I coo.
'Y/n, stop!' She says, giggling. Mayne laughs out so loud, that the entire point of the joke disappears.
We then head inside. I head to investigate Mrs.Lucifer but I wanted to actually investigate henry as well.

'Come in' i beckon when mr.Henry, the p.a. Of mr.Lucifer.
He takes a seat. I have Mayne with me. 'Sit!' She says and I give her a glare.
'Ok, Henry, I know you were already investigated but I would further like to question you.'
'Sure ma'am, anything for the justice of my master.'
'So tell me, when did you last see mr.Lucifer?'
'I last saw him at 10:25 pm, when he was in his bedroom.'
'You saw him inside his bedroom?'
'Yes ma'am.' He says.
'Ok, what did you see?'
'I saw him sitting on a chair. With ice pack. I used to go everyday to attend to his needs. I saw him in a very big rage.'
'What needs did he have to attend?' I ask.
'He wanted me to bring lot of packs inside the room and it seemed like-like-he was in panic.'
I couldn't judge so soon. I needed some time to figure out why he panicked.
'Tell me' I mysteriously ask him, 'where is sulphur kept in the house?'
At this time, Henry gets stiffened. His hands wouldn't move, and he trembles.

'Tell me' I ask even more dangerously (trust me, it works well).
'How-how -how would I know?' He says, gulping hard.
'Well, you are his p.a., so I expect you to know everything.'
'Well, I-I- know.'
'So tell me, where is it?'
'It's supposed to be in the kitchen...' he says.
'But it's not, is it?' I ask.
'Ma'am..'
'I knew you were hiding something from me. I was investigating your room, when I saw sulphur dust near your door. You must have left it there by accident.' I say.
'Ma'am!' He squeals. 'I will confess everything, literally everything to you!' He says.
'But I swear on Jesus, I didn't kill him!'
'Go ahead' I say.
'Ma'am, I went for that silver box kept in his room.'
'What's there in that box?' I enquire, just to test him.
'There are cheques. Lots of cash. Mr.Lucifer trusted me enough! He told me everything, and this made me greedy! So I decided to rob him,but I couldn't do that with cctv around! So I applied sulphur on his bedroom camera only.'
'But ma'am trust me, I don't kill him, never would I do that!'
'Ok, enough!' Mayne says. 'We shall decide!'
I say 'I can't decide that so soon, but tell me , did you apply sulphur to only your lucifer's bedroom?'
'Yes ma'am! Someone has copied my idea and applied it to all the cctv's!'
'Stop squealing!' Mayne says, suddenly. (Look who's saying it)

NIALL POV:
Lisa is here to interrogate us. Lemme be quite honest, she's of a boring type. And yes, unlike y/n she takes a lot of pressure. And she can't stay quiet.
From the time we all have come, all she can do is pace around the bedroom.
After 15 minutes of roaming, she says 'are you sure Harry said that, and not Zayn?'

I see that she is pointing at me. 'Huh?' I blindly ask, coming out of my subconscious.
'Did Harry say I'll kill you one Day to mr.Lucifer or Zayn said it?'
'Wait, what! How do you know?!' Louis says jerking forward.
Lisa scoffs. 'Just tell me!'
'Fine' I say surrendering. 'Harry said it.'
Harry looks at me with wide open eyes. 'Mate!' He wails.
'What!?' I say in defense. 'You can't escape detectives!'

ZAYN POV:
'You can't escape detectives!' Niall says, defending himself. I don't recall myself telling y/n that statement. She must have gotta know somehow.
'Guys, guys relax' I say. Liam agrees.
'Just that we said it, doesn't mean we did it! Harry just said 'I'll kill you one day' but that day never came.'
Lisa stares at me. 'Didn't he say, 'I'll kill you with a dagger one day?' She asks.
'Oh my freaking god! No!' Says Harry. 'I said no shit like that.'
'Mind your tongue' says David.
'No?' Says Harry.
They argue for 10 minutes whole, until Liam comes and pushes Harry behind. I have always observed a spark between both.

'Lisa, come here!'I hear y/n's voice. With that, we are free for the day.

YOUR POV:
'Ok, so Harry didn't use the word dagger..' Lisa says.
'Oh ditch that! I have something more to tell you.' I say aggressively.

'What is that?'
I show her the meeting recording with the p.a.
'Oh damn lord! He actually did that? Is he insane?'
'We need to now prove that either he did the crime, or he didn't.'

'That's just so tiring!' Mayne comes in. 'That little strut is just panting and crying from that time! And yes he constantly nagged me to let you people know, he didn't commit the crime.'

I roll my eyes. 'Ask him to shut up before I shove that dagger into his face.' I say loudly, loud enough for the boy and to hear. I hear a faint chuckle.

That must be Louis.

Anyways, I check on my watch and it's already 6 p.m. in the evening. We decide to leave the case for the day and head home. And yet again, I drop 1d in their lobby and just before I leave, Niall comes to me.
'I wasn't investigated' he murmurs. 'Not that I want to, but I'm curios. Why wasn't I investigated?' He asks, softly, making sure no one else hears.

I gulp hard. Should I tell him? How can I? That would be giving out a big part of the case. But doesn't he deserve to know?
'Y/n?' Niall shakes me with my shoulders, snapping me out of my thoughts.
'Ya ya, Niall uh, do one thing, come to my house at 10 p.m. we shall discuss there.'

I quickly sign over a parchment. 'Show this to them before you enter, so that they don't think you're running away.'

'Can I tell the boy band?'
'Uh...they,they...Uhh fine, just tell them.'

'Ok, thanks.' Niall says and hurries off. I look at him at admiration. He looks so gorgeous from behind.
