Chapter 1
I held my face in my hands "wait!" I frantically scribbled something down and looked backed to the pictures. Finally. After 3 hours of sitting thinking I felt all the puzzle pieces click together until I looked closely at the picture holding it close to my face "FUCK!" I threw all the papers I had worked on and threw them onto the floor. Words could not describe how enraged I felt at that moment, whipping out my journal I started furiously writing
JULY 2, 1972 3:53 .A.M.
This case has drove me into insanity, although I'm at my breaking point I'll wait until I finally give up but until then I'll work. And I will work until it kills me.
Soon the antique clock in my office pinged notifying me that another hour had passed, I got up, took a shower and drove to work. "Tom. I would like to have a chat with you in my office" The Chief of the police department said as soon as I walked through the door "yes sir" as I sat down I looked to his face, a cold stare spread across it "what did you need?" I said fidgeting a bit "look Tom, you can be one of the best cops on the force, when you try." what is he trying to hint at. "yes, and? he looked at me "I think it would be best if we let you go, all you do is focus on that one case when there is many others that need to be looked through. I think you can be good at cases but the problem is you focus on the one your solving and nothing else and honestly, that just drags all of us down." This..this is good! Now I can have more time to work on the case. "I see." I took my badge out at handed it to him picking up my bag. When I was driving past the super market I saw him. I swerved into the parking lot and ran out jumping in front of him "HEY YOU!" I said jumping in front of the bastard "can I help you?" he said in an oddly calm tone "just fess up.. do it!" he looked at me with a confused yet disgusted face "dude I don't know what your talking about" I lifted him up by the collar '' you know exactly what I'm talking about!" he slapped me and ran away before I could do anything else. "YOU PIECE OF SHIT!" I screamed cursing myself for not taking any further action.
