The Five Fantastic Detectives

Margot's Drug Case

Margot got up late as always and entered the precinct late, as always. She dressed in her pink cardigan. She was feeling as glamorous as always. Tone-deaf singing was the first thing she did in the morning. She then took her sweet time to arrive at the police precinct. She entered the precinct, half an hour late, but she didn't care. She did her job and that was all that mattered. It didn't matter if she was a minute or an hour late, the point is she was there and she put away criminals. She walked into the briefing room, interrupting the captain.
"You're late Greene", the captain sighed.
"Pish posh, I'm here. I come here, I do my job and that's it. Dismissed", she said, as she sat down and crossed her legs on the table.
"No, not dismissed. First of all, I say that", the captain said madly, "And second of all, the meeting isn't over. As I was saying, we've had a tip that some drugs are being moved out of Queens tonight. Greene, you're a diva, and you're hard to work with, but you're good at your damn job so, the case is all yours".
"Right, because I'm the only one who gets stuff done around here", she laughed.
"No, because we don't know if there is going to be an interaction between the dealers and our detectives. If there is, I'd rather have an actor, or in this case actress, ready to go", he said.
"Alright. Well good meeting", she said, standing up, "Dismissed".
"No Greene!", the captain screamed. He looked around and sighed, "Do what she says. Dismissed". They all stood up and left. Margot spent the whole day preparing for the handoff. By preparing, I mean she spent the entire day figuring out what a drug dealer would wear. That night. They did a steak out. They stayed in the police car waiting for a handoff to happen, but it never did. Why was there no handoff? There were drugs here somewhere. There had to be, and there was. Margot uncovered a big stash of cocaine. It was a lot, to be honest. It was shaped in a U shape. What did the U shape mean? What did it mean? Who knows? Whatever it meant, it was stressing Margot out. She spent two long weeks trying to find who placed these drugs and who was dealing with them. Her happy self was vanishing because she could not figure it out.
"We have no leads", she said, "the dealer left no evidence. We wait for a handoff every night, but there isn't one. They wouldn't leave all this cocaine for no reason. It needs to be somebody. Forensics hasn't found any evidence. The dealer is good. We need to figure out what U means".
She needed to solve this. It was tearing her to pieces that she couldn't find who the drugs belonged to. She would find who did it, then everything would go back to normal. She would be herself again, and she would solve cases easily.
