I groan and turn to the guy in line, the body scanners came a week or so ago, and since then, it's been fine. But the thing was, this man thought he'd get away with something, which lit 10 alarms.
"Come to the side, sir." I say with the scanner in my hand... still had to use these.
"You're alarms need working on, if it's stopping me." He flashes me a detective badge.
I smile at him. "Detective, I don't think you guys get special treatment."
"It's the metal setting me off."
"The metal from your badge? Highly unlikely." I say. "You set more than one alarm." I say, and nod towards his jacket. "Could you please take that off, as well as your belt?"
"Strip show are we?" He raising a brow.
"Protocol, detective." I say with a straight face.
"I'm after a suspect, you'll find a gun.." He says, taking off his belt and jacket. "A small pepper stray, and of course... my shoes at on point with a metal slate."
"The suspect leaving the terminal?" I scan him.
"In a hour or so.." He mumbles and puts his arm over his head, and I notice something when my scanner alarms something near his ankle.
"Detective.." I raise a brow and pull the knife out from his sock. "Can you explain? I know for certain that detectives don't carry knives.."
He shakes his head. "I'm a different detective, ma'm."
"Abigail..." I call over from my shoulder.
"Here." She smiles towards us, "What can I help with?"
"Take his badge and scan it through the system please? I'm just checking something suspicious." I whisper in her ear.
She takes his badge. "I'll be right back with you badge, detective." Abi says and walks off.
"Is that really necessary? I'm living proof I'm innocent here." He chuckles nervously.
"Acting nervous is a factor you better hide, unless you have something to declare." I say, spotting that his hand's begin shaking.
"Sure, I'm just in a hurry... nothing to declare."
"Celine, can you come here please!?" Abi calls.
"I'll be right back, sir. Just sit here with this officer.
I walk with Abigail to the scanning machine and I shake my head at the results. "Shocking."
The display showed that the badge was fake and his name was too...
"What's your next move?" Abi asks, giving the badge back to me.
"Call the police, while I talk to him." I sigh. "I bet his story about the suspect was a cover for something worse if he's carrying a gun, knife and pepper spray.." I say. "Thanks Abi."
"No problem." She smiles.
I go to the fake detective and give back his badge. "What's your real name, sir?"
He frowns. "The badge's not fake, no matter what your silly machine says."
"My 'silly machine' doesn't lie, unlike you. I'd like to frisk you... would you want to have a male officer do it, or are you fine with me frisking you?" I ask, getting the paper out.
".. I'd rather have a man, thanks." He mumbles, annoyed.
"I'll get a officer right away."
I call to Freddy and he takes the paper from me and lets the man read it before frisking him completely.
