After the short drive from the hospital to Liam's flat, I couldn't stop thinking about Robin being most likely the whole evil mastermind of this whole entire crime, but why would he do this? Why?

As I pull up front at Liam's flat, I am greeted by him, and he quickly gets into the passenger side. I turn off the ignition.

"So what's the problem again? You sounded pretty frantic through the phone." He frowns. I look at him for a moment, trying to gather my words.

"We think Robin is the one behind all of this."

He looks at me in disbelief. "Really? How?"

"Well, Louis, Harry, and I, oh and also Nialls Family were there, I paid Samuel a little visit before he passed away, and told me he wouldn't tell me shit, because he promised his bestfriend to Secrecy,"

"He died? Damn."

"Yeah," I say. "Anyway, Louis and I started to talk, Harry overheard our conversation about Samuel, saying he heard his step father Robin having a best friend named Samuel,and Niall said while in those 5 years he heard Samuel always talking on the phone with someone named Robin, so what else is there to tell right?"

Liam looks In deep thought for a moment. "So," he looks up. "How are we going to get Robin to confess? I don't think he's going give up that easily."

"Exactly." I say turning on the car. Liam looks at me clearly confused with the situation. "That's why I need your help Liam."

"And how am I going to help?"

"Does he know your a cop?"

"No, only you and Louis know.. Unless he secretly paid Samuel a visit at the hospital."

"Fuck." I breath out. Guess my original plan isn't going to go how I thought it would. "Wait I got it!"

"Yeah?"

"Put a wire on me." I say looking over at him, then back to the road. "I'll go talk to him, try to make him spill the beans, I can have a wire so you can listen in and record everything, and if something happens you can help."

Liam nods smiling a bit. "Not bad Malik." He praises me.

"Okay the wire is in place, I am going to be able to hear everything alright?"

"Alright." I say, I'm starting to feel nervous.

"Okay, now go get him tiger!"

".. Okay?"

"I'm trying to make you less nervous but never mind I guess," he says. "Anyway, be careful man."

"Don't worry I will." I huff.

Liam parked a few feet away from the twist household, trying not to show any suspicion, to Robin since I'm supposedly here by "myself"

I walk onto their front steps, and knock on the door. I look behind me. The neighborhood is quiet, birds chirping, and dogs barking can be heard. Now realizing this, it seems like Robin picked a really secluded place. Wonder why.

The door soon opens revealing Robin. He smiles, but you can tell it's forced. "Hello Detective Malik."

"Hello Robin." I greet.

"What brings you by today?" He asks raising an eyebrow.

"Just came to talk."

"I thought the case was closed?"

"Yes it is." I say.

"Then why are you here?"

"May I come inside, so we can talk in private?" I question smoothly. His eyes widen.

"Oh I'm sorry, excuse me for my manners, detective." He says opening the door wider for me to enter.

"Don't worry about it."

"So Robin." I say moving on my seat. "Where's Anne?"

"Anne? Oh she's in the kitchen." He smiles. "Anne!" He yells for her.

"Yes?" She asks running to the living room where Robin and I are at. She looks at me and smiles. "Oh hello Zayn." She smiles widely at me.

"Hello Anne." I smile back. "How are you?"

"Farley well." She smiles. Then she becomes distraught. "Um, I'm going to the kitchen to prepare lunch." She says walking away. Well that was odd. I turn my attention back to Robin.

"So Robin, I came to talk to you."

"About..?"

"The case." I clear my throat. "Turns out Samuel said he was just the murder who did the dirty work, and there was someone else behind this."

"Oh really?" He asks.

"Yes, and I wanted to know if you have any ideas who that might've been."

He stands up not saying a word. I watch him carefully as he walks to the bookshelf. "You think it's me don't you?"

"And why should I think so?" I question.

"Because you're wearing a wire." I stiffen at his words.

He walks up to me me opening my shirt and yanking the wire out of it. He smirks.

"H-How did you know?" I ask.

He chuckles. "Because I know everything."

He steps on the wire, causing it to break. "Except, you will never have any evidence to prove it now."
