The police commander is a friend of mine. We grew up together and went to the same school. I would trust this man with my life. I shut my apartment door and I was on my way to work. I waited until the elevator came. I got on the elevator and pressed the button that would take me to the car garage. I arrived at the firm a little before 8:30. I have a pretty nice office all the wood work was mahogany. I sat behind my desk and logged into my computer. I received an email notifying me that one of the major crime lords died in a gun fight. This means one less scum in this world for me to deal with. My secretary told me that I should go to the police station. As soon as she finished talking I grabbed my coat. I was now back in the parking garage and was off. I arrived at the police station five minutes after ten. I met at the door by the commander himself. He then proceeded to escort me back from the door toward his own car. Then he motioned me to get into the car and sit on the passenger side. I did as I as instructed to do and he shut the door behind me. He then proceeded to get on his side of the car and he slammed his door shut. We were in the car for about 45 minutes. Then we arrived at this huge Victorian mansion that was all black. We both got out of the car at the same time and shut our doors. He then locked the car with his remote that he withdrew from his pocket. We both walled forward toward the door. He extended his arm and he used the silver plated knocker on the door. The knocker was an interesting shape it was the upside down cross that had appeared on my neck this morning. After the knocker had been hit 6 times. I finally heard footsteps come behind the heavy oak doors. A little old man appeared behind the door and he ushered us into the house at once. After he let us in he looked behind as if he was under surveillance. He then shut the door so quick I was in awe by his strength. The old man appeared was of average height, bald,and his skin was very pale as if he never left the house. He led us up a big marble staircase and then he turned left. He led us down a narrow hallway and into the master bedroom. The bedroom was a very cold and dark room that looked like it never experienced sun light. As I looked around the room the commander asked the servant a few questions. When I finished looking around the servant shakily pointed his index finger near the back of the room. The commander led the way to the back of the room. I followed shortly behind him as we both reached a door. He opened the door slowly and we slowly went into together. The bathroom was superb it had sinks made up of Italian marble and the facets were diamond encrusted with topazes on the top of the facets.kI looked around in awe of this so ornate bathroom. Then I looked down at the bath tub and a dead body was laying inside of the tub. The commander and I both share a look of total disgust. Then we both looked at the body and by the look in the commander's eyes he was analyzing the crime scene. The servant wasn't with us anymore. The commander's next look was telling me that he was thinking it's murder. I looked more closely around the crime scene now. I went into the area where the tub was and found one of my missing neck ties. As soon as I saw it I snatched it up and placed it in one of the inner pockets of my coat. I did that so they would have no reason to suspect me as the murder. When we left the bathroom the commander looked as though he didn't find any evidence. When we left the mansion he called the forensic team to come and collect the body. It took longer to get back to the station because of traffic. We stopped 15 minutes out and we got food to eat. Since we had missed our lunch break because of the case. We stopped at a local diner. He ordered his usual piece of apple pie à la mode and a cup of coffee with cream,and 6 packs of sugar. I wasn't in the mood for anything so I didn't get anything. We left the diner after thirty minutes. We got back inside the car and were off for the station. He escorted me back to my car and he told me to enjoy my day. I got back in-car and headed home on the interstate. As I was sitting behind a long line of cars a mysterious black shape ran across my car. The shape appeared as a shadow with no owner. It was black and only appeared visible for a few seconds then it was just gone. I headed back to my apartment.
