The front door was kicked open.

Yelling.

"POLICE WE'RE GOING UP!"

Loud and fast footsteps.

Three knocks.

"1...2...3!"

Creaking.

"Oh my God..."

"Fuck fuck fuck!"

"Just as I thought... LET'S GO DOWN RIGHT NOW HURRY!"

"WAIT!"

"Hey, hey I know this is your first crime scene, but please search through everything. Can I trust you with that?"

"Of course you can."

The mentor ruffled his younger colleague's light ginger hair and left the room, sending one last encouraging smile. The door was now half-closed, and he was alone.

Or not.

After a minute of just staring, the young officer has started his work. The room was neat, everything was in its place perfectly.

"What a sight to see at this time."

Heavy sigh left his lips as he walked around carefully, looking for something.

Next to the bed was a black backpack filled with nothing important, just regular clothes, a bar of chocolate and pack of gummybears.

Another bag on the other side, nothing interesting at all.

The silence was suffocating, the only noise was from outside, loud discussions and a siren that came closer as seconds passed by.

His glove covered hands moved the bedsheets slowly, a sudden dull thud echoed and grabbed his attention immediately.

He went over to the right side again and squatted down to search for the cause of the sound. It wasn't that hard to find it.

The boy in blue uniform picked a notebook up from the floor. He straightened up and analyzed its cover, which was a simple beige color without any name on it.

His eyes widened a little as he read the first sentence, written in large letters;

This notebook, my mobile phone and the camera should be handed to Lee Felix right after him being informed about the situation.
Thank you for understanding.

"Who is that?" He mumbled, flipping the page over to the read more.

His hard expression changed while reading and comprehending, finishing the long letter fairly fast. He closed his eyes and let his mind wander a little, the feeling of pity never left him.

"What is that?"

The ginger jumped as someone spoke next to him, making the stranger to let out a yelp. They faced each other finally and for while, the two boy was just staring.

Before the situation got awkward, the young officer cleared his throat and put his hand out.

"Officer Lee Minho from department 8. It's nice to meet you umm..."

"Ah! Han Jisung from NS hospital, glad to meet you!"

They shook hands after their introduction, smiling at each other.

"So officer Lee, what's in that notebook?" Jisung asked, curiously peaking from above the other's shoulder.

"Uh well, sorry I can't share the classified information, although I can say that this the best evidence ever and also a goodbye letter... not the happiest thing I've read."
