I was doing some stuff in my laptop when someone tap my shoulder.I turn around to see an annoyed look written on Zed's face and I know why.Pag ganito kasi kaasim ang mukha nya ay isa lang ang ibig sabihin nun,may kaso kami.

"Hurry up Geov,we got a case to investigate.Tch!What a wrong timing!The Inspector already called me and told me the address.Let's met him there!Chop chop!"

Sabi nito sa akin sabay alis palabas ng aking kwarto.Narinig ko pa itong nagdadabog habang pababa ng hagdan.

I can't blame Zed.We are in the middle of resting while doing our own stuff.Me while working some stuff in my laptop and Zed was just on the verge of taking a nap when his phone rings.He immediately goes outside my room to answer the call and when he is done,he returned to my room with an annoyed face.

Iniligpit ko na lang ang laptop ko at nagmamadaling magbihis.Pagkatapos kong magbihis,ay lumakad na kami ni Zed.

Pagdating namin sa naturang address,ay maraming mga chismoso at chismosa ang nagkukumpulan sa isang malaking bahay na may dilaw na cordon tape at yun na siguro ang crime scene.Marami na ring mga pulis ang nagkalat sa naturang lugar.Nang makita kami ng mga ibang pulis,ay binati nila agad kami at binigyan ng tig-iisang pares ng gwantis pagkatapos ay pumasok na kami sa loob at nakita namin si Inspector Gordon.

"Sa wakas nandito na rin kayo!"

Bati ni Inspector Gordon sa amin.

Tumango lang kami ni Zed sa kanya at nagsimula ng mag inspeksyon sa crime scene.Isang babaeng wala ng buhay ang natagpuang patay.Nakaupo ito sa may mesa sa kusina habang ang ulo nito ay nakahiga payuko.May malaking sugat sa ulo nito na dahilan ng nagkalat na maraming dugo.May tasa rin ng kape ang nakalagay sa may mesa.Nilapitan ko ang tasa ng kape at inamoy ito.Wala naman akong naamoy na lason mula dito.Mukhang pinatulog ang biktima bago pinukpok sa ulo,but why would the culprit waste their time on doing that?Why not kill the victim instantly?Its like the culprit is stalling time but for what?

So I guess that sums it for now.

"Based on your reaction Geov,it seems like you already have an idea what's happening here!"

I turned my gaze around to see the owner of the voice,which is no other than Zed who is approaching towards me.I adjust my glasses first before answering him.

"Yes I think I have but there are still some questions on my mind about the case Zed.Something doesn't feel right about this one.There is no scent of any poison on the victim's coffee!"

Zed nod in agreement with me then he continue speaking.

"I agree,also the murder weapon is still missing.It's safe to presume that the murder weapon is a huge,hard kind of blunt object."

Tama si Zed.Isang malaki at matigas na bagay  ang pinukpok sa ulo ng biktima dahil sa madami ang dugo na lumalabas mula dito.

"Sad to say,hindi namin nakita ang ginamit ng killer pamalo sa ulo ng biktima!"

Singit bigla ni Inspector Gordon sa pinag uusapan namin ni Zed.Tumikhim naman si Zed at nagtanong kay Inspector Gordon.

"How about the other evidence?Yung ebidensya na magtuturo na pinatulog ang biktima,like for example the bottle of sleeping pills or the container containing the sleeping drug?"
