"Good morning sir"Lizzy greeted the DPO,Mr Lawrence.

"Good morning Lizzy"The DPO greeted  her back.

"Yes sir, I woke up  this morning to get a note saying Nat and I are the detectives assigned to look into Mrs.Eugenia Roland's  death "Liz told Mr. Lawrence .

"Yes, and you guys  need to start  work immediately, so you can get the fingerprint  and check if it matches with any of the fingerprints of the suspect."Mr Lawrence  told Liz.

"Sir, I can't work with Nat"Liz told
Mr.Lawrence .

"Why? "Mr. Lawrence  asked in a surprised  tone.

"Sir, everyone knows I hate that guy , we both hate each other and because of that we have never worked together, so I can't  work  with him"Liz said with a  frown on her face .

Mr Lawrence  smiled  and looked at Liz.

"Liz,  you are working with Nat and you should get to work immediately "
Mr.Lawrence said and continued what he was doing before Liz came in.

Liz realized Mr. Lawrence  wasnt giving her attention, so she left his office angrily, getting to her office, she met Nat on her desk sitting  down.

"Welcome , enemy "Nat said bursting  into uncontrollable laughter.

"Please, don't  start frustrating me before we've already begun, let's  go to the deceased's house and see what we'll be able to come up with . "Liz  said picking  some notes  on her desk.

"You think, it's the best place to start from?Nat asked.

"You see why I don't want to  work with you "she said slamming  the notes she was packing on her desk.

"Calm down , and listen  to me  you can't  go to the house of the deceased  without any proof that  you have gone somewhere in your investigation , let us go to the hospital get the fingerprint on the knife, then show it to the husband and parent of the deceased, so they can know we have done some tangible work ,  and then we'll be able to get the fingerprints of all the suspects and see if anyone matches "he said.

"OK then, but don't  act like you know  this work  more than I do "Liz told him .

"OK ma'am "Nat said raising  his two hands up.

"Good morning  doctor"Liz and Nat  greeted both walking  into the doctors  office.

"Good morning "The doctors  said and  shook both of them .

"We are the detectives in charge of Eugenia Roland's case, the woman whose dead body was brought to   your hospital, my name  is Nat" Nat said .

"Oh! Welcome  "The doctor said shaking hands with Nat again .

"And I am Liz" Liz  said introducing herself.

"Welcome  ma"The doctor said shaking  Liz  too.

"So , about the case, we want to check the  fingerprints  on the knife found  in her stomach "Liz said.

"Yes, actually  when  a case like  that  is brought to our place, we check the fingerprint  first before removing  the knife "The Doctor said .

"OK"Liz said and nodded  then made a sign  to the doctors  telling him to continue .

"So, there was no fingerprint  found on the knife,the woman  was brought about eight hours after she was stabbed,so that means, the baby  died also"The doctor  completed .

"Wow! Great job doctor"Nat commended

"Can we have the report? "Liz requested .

"Sure" The doctor  said and  handed  the file to her.

"So we would be heading out, thank you so much  doctor"Nat said standing  up.

"Alright then "The doctor said shaking both of them.

"Do have  a nice day "Nat said.

"And you too Mr. Nat "The doctor  said and  smiled .

They stood up to leave the office when  Liz stopped at the door , Nat also turned  to the check  why  she had stopped.

"Forgive our manners doctor we didn't ask for your name" Liz said with a light chuckle.

"Dr. Max "the  doctor replied.

"Alright Dr.Max have a nice day "she said with a smile .

"And you  too"Dr Max said.
