Golden Snow

chapter 3

"Time of death is unknown, looks like he has been dead for give or take 3 hours  so that would mean that he died around 7:30 -7:50 am" the pathologist said. "And what was the cause of death ?" I asked , "Well at first glance we thought it was the multiple stab wounds all over his chest but upon deeper inspection,  we found that it was due to an abnormally large amount of bee venom in his system" the pathologist replied"Do you think he could have gotten it through a bee sting ?" I inquired. "No , the amount of venom in his system is too much to be from a single bee sting , the amount of venom in his system is equivalent to 5000 bee stings and Even if he disturbed a hive , it would still be impossible to get that much venom into his system and besides these are no marks indicating that he was stung by bees . My guess is that someone injected the venom into his system then stabbed him to make it look like a revenge kill instead of what it really is: a methodical murder ".Who in the fuck would inject someone with 5000 bees worth of venom only to cover it up by stabbing the lifeless body ? "How many stab wounds were inflicted on the victim's body ?I asked "35 In total " the pathologist said "WOW" was all I could muster. " Which pharmaceuticals would have this amount of venom in their labs?" I asked "There shouldn't be any, the testing limit of bee venom is 500 CC's. This amount is illigal "he said. This just keeps getting more interesting. Hoe is the Mafia connected to pharmaceuticals that have an illigal amount of bee venom on hand shouldn't they only deal with powder and pills ? Whatever connects them can't be too good. Are they trying to create a new drug? If so then we are in shit , I can already imagine the further distruction to our youth , the deaths, fuck if that happens I'm gonna have so much paperwork to do .

When I reached the station, the first thing I did was head to the interogation  rooms where the witness was being checked out. When we had found the dead body there was also a female who was found in the basement of the deceaseds house. As I entered the room , her head snapped towards me in an instant, she was scared . I had to handle this with care ; I thought as I made my way to the metal chair directly opposite the one she was seated on. Her eyes were still trained on me as I took a seat . She was trying to read me , to sum me up , analyse the danger and consider a plan of action. I know that look coz I was doing the exact same thing to her , only difference was that I had learner to keep my face indifferent while I scrutinized her on the on the inside whereas she advertised her scrutiny on that delivate face of hers. "I am detective Snow and I'm here to ask you a few questions". I stated and she merely nodded in my direction, signalling me to continue. "What is your name and how did you come to be chained in the victim's basement?" Her face contoured to one of anger and resentment  " That man was no fucking victim, he was a fucking monster"she snapped,  and to say I was amused was too much of an understatement. She was a fiesty one . This would be interesting"okay so before you continue telling me how much of a monster the victim was , answer my previous question " I said still indifferent, she on the other hand seemed to grow more furious, she was like a cure bunny pretending to be a vixen ." My name is Skylar Adams and that piece of shit you call a victim not only kidnapped Mr but he also locked me up in that  damn basement  " she roared "Really and did you have any involvement with the victim before he kidnapped you ?" I asked , suddenly very curious."Yes I did , he was my boyfriend. That was until I found out that he was working for a Group of Human traffickers who kidnapp and sell women around the world. When I found out , he kidnapped me too and was planning to sell me too, I don't know what happened with the buyer because when it was the day I was supposed to be collected no one came and then 3 days later Damien, the man you so politely called a victim came into the basement and started saying that he made a mistake and he was sorry. He also said he couldn't live without me and he loves me so he couldn't go through with the sale and that we would be moving to a new country to start a new life . When I asked him to let me go instead , he simply said that my home was with him and that no one else would have me but him " she explained.Wow she has been through a lot . "Then what happened? How did I get dead man and a kidnapped women on my hands ?"I asked "I was woken up by voice's in the middle of the night , even though the voices were not fully audible I could still hear what they were talking about. There was a man  voice along with Damien's , he was telling Damien he fucked up and the boss would remove any obstacle that would keep him from finding his little 'Raven' . And then after that there was a huge crash and then silence " she explained, her voice cracking slightly in the end . I had figured her out , just by her movements and her expressions and that crack in her voice . She would also momentarily have glazed eyes but as quickly as they had become visible they were gone , as if she was fighting to keep the tears in . She was putting on a front , outside she acted brave and angry but inside she was broken and scared . She was probably raised in a family where showing emotion was deemed a weakness. " Well mam , you will be put under protective custody and assigned a therapist to help you deal with the trauma you have just experienced". I said as  I collected my notepad and pen from the table and was about to exist the room when she said "They say that eyes are the window to the soul  and behind that cold and desolate eyes is a broken window and a lonely soul trying to assemble the broken pieces without getting cut by the untamed shards . But remember this ; damaged people are strong because they know how to survive. "
