WARNING: MENTIONS OF SOMEONE CUTTING SOMEONE ELSE

"I can't believe it! Melanie Reed and Jerome Valeska! Are here in Argues City! THAT'S AMAZING!" Daniel says as he's getting all excited.

Celeste rolls her eyes as she looks at Daniel. "Short, you're acting like an idiot. What's so good about two psychopaths in our city? Killing everyone!" Celeste ask making it totally obvious as she said it in her sentence.

Daniel looks at her as he smiles brightly. "Because since when did we get psychopaths in this boring city?"

"When Dylan came along!" Celeste said as Daniel then realises about Dylan.

"Well, I haven't exactly got given his case. He's mainly your psychopath. And he doesn't really do anything-"

"That's because he's either got something to do or planning something. And plus, he isn't my psychopath, I can't just own him." Celeste says making it sound so obvious. But Daniel just smirks at her.

"Are you sure? Because every time Dylan starts to do something like something bizarre, you always say he's mine." Daniel says in a flirty remark as he smirk at her as Celeste frowns at him.

"Do not!" Celeste barks as she frowns at him Daniel raises his arms up in surrender.

"Okay then, but-I-still-believe-you-do." Daniel mumbles underneath his breath as Celeste looks back at him sharply.

"What was that?" She ask as Daniel shrugs.

"I didn't say anything, Detective Bennett." Daniel says as Celeste looks always he cheekily smiles at her. "So how about we do some research about Jeranie?" Says Daniel as Celeste looks at him weirdly. "What? They're dating so Jeranie is their shipping name, duh." Daniel says making it obvious as Celeste rolls her eyes.

"Of course then."

Daniel gets on his computer as he starts to do some research about the two psychopaths.

"So which one should we research, Detective Bennett?" Daniel ask as Celeste looks at him with an concern look.

"I want to know more about this Detective Ryies." Celeste says as Daniel looks at her confusingly.

"I don't remember Detective Ryies being a psychopath, Detective." Says Daniel as Celeste smirks.

"Well, let's see if he is." She says as she types his name into the computer. A name popped up giving information about Detective Ryies.

"What are you trying to look for, Detective?" Daniel ask as Celeste looks at him.

"Trying to prove that this Detective Ryies is pulling an act." Celeste says as she reads through his entire life story. "Damn, he's a really good kid, he got an A+ in almost everything." Celeste says as Daniel sighs and looks at her.

"Well, he must be very real, Detective." Daniel says as Celeste looks at him angrily. "What were you expecting to find? That he shoplifted or something, Detective?" Daniel says as Celeste sighs.

"Possibly?" Celeste says giving up as Daniel types on the computer.

"Well, while you do that, I'm searching up Melanie Reed first." Daniel says as Celeste nods. "Wait, she committed an patricide, but Jerome helped her but she did mainly all of the work. With along side multiple homicides. Woah, poor girl." Daniel says as Celeste pushes her chair towards him.

"You're feeling sorry for an psychopath, Short?" Celeste ask as Daniel nods.

WARNING:

"Mainly this one. She's got these cuts on her arms, they apparently look like self-harm cuts but her father named Grey Reed, cut her with an kitchen knife because she stolen twenty percent of Grey's drug dealing money." Daniel says as Celeste looks at him weirdly.

WARNING OVER:

"Woah, I now understand how she became what she is today."

"That's not it, Detective. But the thing is, it wasn't even her that stolen the money. It was her brother, Jack Reed." Daniel says as he clicks onto Jack's profile.

"Why isn't there any mug shots or at least an proper photo of him, but only ones when he's jumping off roofs or running? They only giving us his body and his back not his face." Ask Celeste as Daniel shrugs.

"Maybe because he's too fast? He happens to be a hit-man, he gets paid a lot. He'll kill for money. But the thing is that he'll even kill his sister for a lot of money." Daniel says as Celeste nods.

"How much exactly?" She ask as Daniel shrugs.

"It's says a lot, like more than fifty million dollars." Daniel says as Celeste's eyes widen in shock. "Jeez, I can't tell if that's a good thing or bad thing?" Daniel says as shocked as Celeste is right now.

"What a jerk! Their family is so messed up." Celeste says as Daniel shrugs and looks over at her with a look.

"True, I'll go with that, Detective. But, never judge a book by its cover. You might not know, he could be like a-"

"Really hot guy that I could drool over? I wish." Celeste says as Daniel blushes and shrugs.

"W-well...maybe? I'm going back to Melanie. There's no way that Jack Reed or as he calls him self Death-Strike is here." Daniel says as Celeste nods.

"While you do some psychopaths research I'm gonna look for any suspects that's been interested in them. Possibly ask Dylan if he's involved too." Celeste says getting up and getting her leather jacket.

"I'll tell you if I find anything."

And with that Celeste had left the building.
