it was another day at the office it seems a bit boring sitting here nothing to do. my name is Gregory Claire, Detective Gregory Claire. I have finished different kinds of cases whether is involves crime or not. so there I was polishing my pistol when this blonde lady probably around her 70's came in asking for help. turns out that Mr. Scruffles her cat had ran away for the past 24hrs. well first of all I don't accept cases like this. so I asked her to go to the pound but she insisted and left a picture of mr. scruffles who turned out to be colored brown with a color black fur on the right side of its eye, and somehow I noticed a golden key tied in the neck of the cat, so I promised the lady that I'll keep a watchful eye for her pet cat. just so she could leave. and after she had left. the phone started to ring. when I had answer the phone it was my fiancee Martha who works for the daily paper. she wants to meet me in the coffee shop for a late lunch, well I too was hungry and since its a slow day I accepted her offer and closed early. so as I walk my way to the coffee shop which is a few blocks away from my office I head a "PURRR.." coming from the alley. as I approach the alley a brown cat with black colored fur on the right eye had jumped in front of me. I was shocked, it was Mr. Scruffles. but somehow the key that its wearing is gone. so I looked at its collar and found out where the lady(the owner) lives, which turned out to be near, and also the same way as the coffee shop. when I had reached the house I could tell that an old woman lives here. the bird bath is empty, and the flowers had seem to wither, the balcony stairs are made of wood and makes noises when you stepped on it. theres also a garden shed located at the back. so then I decided to knock on the door and the lady comes out surprised to see me holding her companion. then the lady asked about the key necklace. I told the lady that I didn't find one. and quickly the joyful face turned into a frown, she thanked me again and asked me to leave. well I wasn't really expecting for a pay, but somehow I wasn't really convinced in her thankfulness. so as I proceed my journey to the coffee shop I stopped by to grab some bouquet of flowers for my soon to be wife, well maybe because she loves flowers so much. then I entered the coffee shop and found her waiting for me. I came to her, kissed her, and apologized for being late, I told her what happened and she find it to be interesting and sweet at the same time. so after we ate lunch we talked and I escorted her back to her building in which she works at.
I was constantly sleeping at around 3o'clock in the morning when the phone started ring. it was my fiancee she told me about a story shes working on, now I'm not really interested in her talking about her job in the middle of my night when she told me that a lady was found dead with a cat chopped in half, it couldn't be I tried to convinced myself so I asked for the address of the house, and I had confirmed it. it was the same lady that I came to my office yesterday. I quickly jumped out of my bed and came dashing in the crime scene. after I have arrived to the place I saw my best friend Tyler who is already working on the case. I greeted him good morning and he was shocked seeing me, asked my why I was here, I told him that Martha told me about what happened. and I also told him that I had ran to the lady earlier of yesterday. he gave me access to the crime scene and told me that the lady had several types of cuts but cant Identify what cuts are. it cant be a knife because if it was a knife it wouldn't be that narrow. there is no sign of a break in either. so the only question is what could be the killers motive? after 1hr of investigating the body of the lady and the cat was taken for autopsy. Martha had left also cause she had to work on the paper. while me and tyler rounds the small community asking everyone about the lady. it turns out that the lady is named Maurice, shes 72 years old, thats all they can tell because not many of them know Maurice. They also told us that there are times that she works in her garden at night. that was a very interesting testament. why would a lady work at her garden at night? so I asked for someone to start digging all the flower pits and notify me if they found something. we proceeded to the last house, which is just a few meters from Maurice's house, we knocked on the door but no one seems to be answering even though a car is parked outside and I could hear a radio coming from upstairs. we decided to leave and come back sometime later. then one of the police who is digging up the garden had told me the they found cat bones, some planks. so heres what we came up with. theres a lady who is obsessed with cats that she buried at least 5 of the in the same grave. and underneath the are planks. we're still not sure on where this case leads us but I'm pretty sure we're not close to solving the mystery. the autopsy from the ladies body is completed and the boys are kind enough to deliver us the report. as we gazed into the file it seems like the skin was hacked by some kind of garden tool, she also had several bruises, a cat scratch, and her eye was cut off. by looks of it its just another maniac running around and loves to kill people. as for the garden tool I know just where to look. remember the old tool shed I was telling you. you guessed it thats the place I'm heading. after arriving the tool shed I have noticed that there is a lock in it. but when I came here yesterday there was not lock at the shed, so then I started to break the lock and enter the shed. somehow everything seems to be in order except for on tool that seems to be missing. a garden sheer. and then I saw a pocket watch inside is a picture of Maurice, an old man, Mr. Scruffles, and a little girl. so who are these two people on the picture? curiously asking myself when heard a knock on the door. its tyler he told me to come inside theres a phone call from her niece. so I talked to the niece of Maurice, and from the sound of her voice she is somewhere around 20's, probably blonde, and very shocked about what happened. so I asked her name and she told me that her name is Jainie. and she called to see whether she'll be attending in her birthday party this week. but to her surprise her beloved Aunt had died. I asked her some question that may help us in finding the killer, questions like does she have any enemies, is she a group of something that is illegal, and does she have a husband. but she declined to answer all our questions, so I told the girl to get a rest because she sounded awfully tired on her voice, and ended the conversation. then one of the investigator asked us to come upstairs and check out what they found. a jewelry box, and its empty. so what ever happened here maybe a desperate break in. and thats not all. it turned out that Maurice is actually a half millionaire, I asked to take a look at the jewelry box. and thats strange. if I was the robber why would I leave the box behind? why would I ever waste my time openning a jewelry box if I could just take it? then tyler had spotted a man next door from the window of maurie's room. so we rushed downstairs and back to the house we we're at earlier. and asked for the man some details. then I was stopped to my trail as I saw the man, the same man from the pocket watch I saw earlier.
