Next morning, I receive a phone call. The phone call tells me it is just my business. I get ready to investigate Miss Easton's case. I wear my brown jacket and start walking towards her house. By the time I reach her house the police has investigated and has found no clue about anything. 'Useless Cops' I think to myself. I start to get inside the house and the policemen stop me."Where are you going? Commoners not allowed. Who are you?" I breathe out an exasperated sigh murmuring 'Rubbish officer' .He questions back ,"Did you just say something?" I nod my head in no. He investigates me of my purpose,"Who are you?" I nod my head in No again. I am thinking of irritating him with my silence. That would pay him good for stopping a lady. I am the leading lady of this case and come on. I can feel the frustration in his voice as he asks me again, "Who are you?" I nod in No. He tries again ," Have you lost your way Miss?" I nod in No again. He seems to be losing patience," Then why the hell are you here?!" I nod in No again. I see the clenched jaw, veins of the neck popping, his nostrils flaring. He starts to get irritated ,"Get out now! Useless Woman!"I sigh again exasperated from all the nodding I just did. Just as I am about to reveal my identity."Stop. She is allowed in." a known voice rings out. 'Nice Timing Adamson. You saved the police officer.' I smirk behind my black veil. I turn to find no one other than William. He apologizes for the behavior of the officer.I was really irritated at first but then I get relieved. "So, you are even a detective?" he questions like yesterday night. "Yes, so you are even working on this case Mr. Adamson?" I ask removing my veil. "No need to be so formal. For your answer, yes I am working on this," he speaks with confidence. I speak frankly ,"I was not informed that I will have a partner. Further I don't like to work with partners." He hands me a legal looking paper saying," Your embassy instructed me to tell you personally, about this partnership . I will try my level best not to come in your way." He bows slightly opening his hand towards the door, "Right behind you." God my day starts with so much of drama but it's okay. I do not feel uncomfortable. 'Uhun? Gentlemanly Manners''Impressive.' I walk through her library and spot a book that catches my eye .It is a French book ,a paper is peeking out of it. I take out the paper. It reads


"Meet me at the Corodova restaurant , Western corner ,at 10 pm."


It is written in hazy handwriting in an urgent manner. It seems kind of mysterious to me. Hiding a paper in a French General. What could it be? Who wrote it? Did Easton write it someone or someone else wrote to her. Could it be the killer? She did look dressed up in casuals. Maybe she did it to avoid attention.Like Who would believe a superstar Mary Easton would be wandering in the lone streets. Just Like nobody would believe I was investigating the case to Mary Easton. It could be the killer Her nail polish seemed to be perfect. Just like recently applied. But what connection will probably a nail polish have. It wasn't of any relative relevance. I dismissed my thought cycle when it hit me.I own the Corodova!Is it a invitation for me. I own this Western corner Franchise. How could it be possible? Did the sender know I would be here? Is there someone who wants to meet me or is this just for Mary Easton. What does this symbolize? So many questions involved with just one mysterious letter. I am somewhere scared. Was it pre-planned? If the mastermind knew where to just place it and give it to Easton so he could distract me then he was dangerous. It gives me chills that I could be the next target. Wasn't it scary. An unknown serial Killer just wrote me a note after shooting one of the so claimed lady.I fold the paper and slip it into my coat pocket. Now this is something interesting. I will find more clues. There is a possibility that we find the murderer. More the number of clues the faster we complete the case. One more thing I'm going to Corodova at 9 tonight. It doesn't matter if I am being summoned to my death or it was for Easton. I have to be brave. I'll prove it when a Woman wants something she stays strong and determined. I'll find the details. CCTV cameras rocks. I'll find about for whom it is. I just got them changed.I will solve this case. No further gainsaying it.
