Chapter 5
"WHAT DO YOU MEAN THE BODY'S MISSING??!!" Fillman shouted angrily for the second time.
"I already told you detective, the body's gone. Now instead of shouting and repeating the same question, maybe you can do something valuable and send out search teams." said Dr. Miller before hanging up.
"Steve-" started Fillman
"I already know Fillman, I was sitting right next to you while you were shouting on the phone.
Ricky, I want you to send out Lilly Lieberman's picture to all airports, stations and sea ports. Start a manhunt, we cannot and I repeat CANNOT afford to lose the body of someone so important!
Stanley, get CSU to sweep the morgue inside-out for trace of any evidence that leads to finding our victim. We cannot continue this investigation without the body."
Ricky and Stanley nodded before leaving.
"I'll go inform Mr. Lieberman and his family"
Captain Halle, the head of the NYPD in that area, came out of her office and said to the Detectives, "Listen up boys, you have to find this body within 24 hours. This is a very high profile case and if you don't find the body, then you'll have to face the consequences...and let me tell you, you won't like them."
"Yes ma'am" they chimed.

"YOU BOTH HAVE BEEN TARDY IN THIS INVESTIGATION AS IT IS AND NOW YOU TELL ME THAT YOU LOST MY WIFE'S BODY??!!!" Mr. Lieberman growled.
"I cannot let th-this hap-pen...we ha-ven't even bur-r-ied her." Nathan took a deep breath before continuing. "You have t-to find my mother's body. Please Detectives" Now he sounded desperate.
"I'm assuring you both that we will find Mrs. Lieberman's body within 24 hours. We've already sent out search teams and have started a manhunt." replies Fillman.
"You'd better or else I'll be sure that you loose your jobs of 'so-called' Detectives" he spat before storming out of the office along with Nathan.
As heads of the investigation, the blame would come on Fillman and Stvenson's shoulders if they didn't find the body before tomorrow.
"We're screwed" sighed Fillman
"For once, I agree with you man" said Stvenson.
