A Foxy Detective!

Chapter 4

Jack who was looking over the body heard Travis curse and he looked up at him with concern and asked "What do you know this person?"

Travis shook his head no and said with frustration "No! But let's just say I saw him in the woods in a dream and found him dead in the woods. My best guest is that it was a magical seers dream that happens to people from time to time."

The man was just like his in his dream. His blonde hair, blue eyes, blonde beard of a lumber jack. Round ears and smells like a human although that wasn't evident in the dream. The guy also had a body builders look to him. He hair was all over the place with trash stuck in it and other sorts of things. His nose was pointed and sharp, so was his chin although his beard covered it up. He was about 5ft 3in tall. His lips were thin and blue making seem like strangulation but there was no signs of that. Travis guess his age just by looking he was about 45 years old. The wrinkles on his forehead was from stress and from when you get older the skin starts to loosen up a bit.

Jack grimaced and said to Travis "Yeah I had one once it was not fun as they make it out to be. Also this might explain a couple of things about the body. One the body looked like it was moved because the lack of blood. The body was shot three times in the back because the front is larger than the back. The fatal shot wasn't the shots to the back but to the heart. He was stabbed with what I can't tell yet but I will know more once I get him back to autopsy. Also he was dead long before this morning judging by his temperature he died about 11 to 12 pm. Another fact is that there is no bullet casing around here that I can see" Jack was showing the bullet wounds to Travis that were clumped together in the front and were large compared to the back where they were still clustered together but were smaller in size. The stab wound was covered in dried blood and was hard to tell what he was stabbed with.

Travis nodded his head "Well if my dreams were correct I am betting you we will find some evidence in the woods. Did you ID this man though?" Jack nodded to him as he took the wallet that was off to his left side of him. Travis who still wore his gloves opened the wallet and sighed as he knew the name of the person "Well this says his name Frank Crave. Age: 20, hmm..I don't think this information is right."

Jack looked at him as his assistant who just arrived a couple of minutes ago was putting the body in the body bag and putting on the wheel like stretcher. "What do you mean by that?"

Travis looked at Jack and then said in the serious look in his face "Well the man looks to about in his 40's and the ID doesn't even match his hair color or eye color. Granted he could have changed his eye color and hair color but the damage to the skin is not repairable even in magic. I mean you can heal the skin, you can repair tissue and put back blood in the body but that is it. Once your skin starts to sag or stress lines on the face start to show it there for a life time unless you use a lot of medicine and magic of the highest grade ever to stay young or look young."

Jack looked at Travis in surprise "Well you know a lot about magic for a shifter. I think you might be right that this ID doesn't belong to him so the question is did he make it or did he steal it? We could be looking at a robbery gone wrong but I am not a detective in this. I am just a coroner." Jack laughed as he said that

Travis gears were turning and he had so many thoughts running through his head at once. He then thought of something "Do you have finger print scanners that you can use to ID this guy?"

Jack nodded and said "Yes. I was just about to get it from the van that is parked in the entrance way straight ahead." Jack pointed to the white vehicle that had the police logo on it.

Travis smiled and nodded he just said to Jack "Good!". Travis just waited a couple of minutes as Jack walked to the vehicle to get the finger print scanner. It took him a little bit longer than Travis would have liked to find the machine but once he came back Travis just sighed as he dead panned at Jack with a question look at him.
