I am sitting in my office, the top floor of a building  in New Jersey, RJ agency my very own inherited property which my parents initialised. R and J are the initials of my parents.
My desk is a mess right now, filled with papers,docs, tablet, computer, boards etc "Jerry, any updates?" I said to the workaholic sitting in front of me, his typing speed seems faster than that of a bullet train. Cheesy but true. That man is crazy good with tech stuff.

Anyway, Jerry, our team's hacker is a blondie,about same height as me, a little younger though. He's also one of my great friends but during work we stick to being professionals. One thing about him is that he gets terrible eye bags every time he pulls up all night hours. And then he whines about them for days.
"Not yet", He said giving all the attention to the screen. "Anyway why are you working in my office..Is your office dead?" I said.
He really annoys me when he works here. "Come on boss! Sharing is caring." I  rolled my eyes..he calls me 'boss' just to annoy me. Agh. "You are such a nuisance Jerry!. You literally got the best of the best equipment and machines in your office", someone said, barging in.

"You've got every thing you need in there, even the model of the PC which is not even released yet!"  entered a woman, a very sassy one. Sometimes, I wonder how can she rolled her eyes so much? How can she come up with savage come back, every time, someone tries to insult her? Emily, she works with Robby  in DNA sampling, identification, printing, face recognition, stuff like that.
"I don't need equips, just my skills. Also how else will I annoy our dear bOsS here?"
Jerry replied. Sassy little bitch. "Could be seen when you begged our him for the new sample of the PC!" she said. Both rolled their eyes. They just have this animosity for some reason. Both can't stand each other. It's a real headache sometimes. I cut it off before it gets out of hand.
"Guys we need to work!" I said, snapping them to reality.

"Anyways, I am here to inform you about the DNA of people found on her.
"Go on." I said. "We Found DNA in a total of three places.." she started, keeping down the papers in her hand. "We inspected the skin under her nails, hands, face and legs,( some people use their legs in self defence) and guess what?"  she continued, "We found Robert's match under her skin, she scratched him, probably, Robert's saliva, was too found in her mouth, and on her lips, she kissed him or the other way around, probably." okay, so that's interesting, there is a high possibility that she fought him as he forced himself on her, but, isn't it common between couples, kissing, hugging..ew. "And the third one is of blood, no one noticed or cared but one other blood type, except her own is found there, on top of her abdomen." My mind was racing, and my eyes were wide, is this it? Have we got him?
"It was so minute that it was almost invisible. We found a decimetre of flesh too in there",she continued. "Just tell me the name,already!" Jerry hissed.  "It is....not identified." Not on our database,not registered."

Wow, that's shitty. "We have the data based of the whole population of America.! How is that possible?" I said. "I know it's impressive, but it is not the time to brag!" Jerry said. I glared at him. He just talks nonsense.
Emily continued, "Traces of cyanide found in her puke."
Jerry made a disgusting face. "Poisoned." I said. He shrugged and resumed searching for CCTV's of the hall and entrance. Bitch's got a attitude for no reason.
"Keep searching!" I said. "I am going to the crime scene again with Sara. I don't want any other problems guys, I already have enough for today."
After directing it to both of them. I headed out. It is confusing, very confusing. How in the world did this happen? Is it a mistake? Or a plan?

I guess the only way to find out is keeping reading.
