"No,no,no! This can't be!" The old lady started shrieking.

Her son starts walking towards her mother trying to comfort her, though tears were clearly evident in his eyes.

It seems like they somehow seemed to recognise her because of the tattoo on her hand  which wasn't burned properly.

The other son's wife had also started crying when it seemed a little dramatic, I chose to give them some time alone.

I gestured Namjoon to get out of the room with me so that we could give them a moment.

Namjoon understood my gesture as he eyed them before following me outside.

"Why do they all live in the same house?" I asked Namjoon while drinking onto my coffee.

"The families of Samadum are poor too afford houses so maybe that's why. And that's how they are really close too." He answers.

"Oh"

"I think we should head back to the room, to check on them. It's been a while, you know." Namjoon suggests as I nod before leaving with him.

We move quickly and head to the elevator to get to the room.

As we get inside the room, everyone seems to be quiet, some still weeping silently while some already asleep.

"I don't think it's the right time to interrogate them now." I lean towards Namjoon and whisper as he agrees.

"Absolutely not, maybe we should let them go for now,  I suggest we interrogate the woman's husband, he may know a lot." He suggests.

I give a brief nod before informing them that they can leave.

"Namjoon we'll talk to them tommorrow, today you are free." I say before he bows lightly and leaves.

"Okay ma'am."

Next day

I enter my office before jotting down my files on to the table which my boss had given to me this morning.

I stretched my arms before muttering "Got some paperwork to do."

As I was working, as if on cue, someone knocked onto my door.

"Come in!" I order not bothering to even look at who it is.

"Ma'am, we found another body in the same forest." Namjoon panicked.

"Ahh, great." I muttered, still doing my work, before rubbing my forehead out of frustration.

"But ma'am it's someone you know." Namjoon breathes heavily as he spoke.

I completely stop myself from doing anything when I hear him speak."What do you mean?" I get up from my seat completely ignoring the given work, giving him a sharp glare.

He breaks a sweat before saying "Your boyfriend."

Okay first of all I wanna thank for a 100 views.

I knows it's a small amount of views, but a small writer like me would be happy for life.

I mean Thanks a lot fr so many views.

I was actually surprised to see so many views with only 2 chaps

Because if u see my previous book ( which isn't completed yet) it reached a 100 views in its 6 or 7 chap I guess,

I might give shoutouts to those who appear in my notifications often!

Okay, maybe im exaggerating

So bye.
