I squinted my eyes at the flashing red and blue lights, the car I drove screeching at the stop I made.
I ducked down, crouching while walking under the yellow crime scene tape.
Zoren santos.. a son of a millionaire.
Officers patrolled the area, looking in every area is if they lost something they owned.
"You're late." Angelo said, walking up to me.
"I'm no-"
"Jay. You're an officer. This in unacceptable to be late at such a time like this." Angelo stated, his voice so firm it intimidated even the strongest of men.
I nodded, looking down at the grass that danced in the cold night are.
"These are the suspects, they were the last people in that house." Angelo announced, handing a brown clipboard to me.
I looked down at the list. 4 people. My eyebrows furrowed looking at the list, what motive would these people have to kill such a powerful person?
Mark Keifer Watson.
Mir Keigan Watson.
Yuri Hanamitchi.
I frowned.
"Who are they?"
"Friends." Angelo said. "They were the last seen in that mansion, and it's likely that one of them committed the murder. I'm sure of it."
I read the names again.
"Brothers?" I said, turning the clipboard to Angelo and pointing to both Keifer and Keigan name.
"Correct."
Angelo nodded.
"Yes, Keifer and Keigan."
I breathed out slowly. Three suspects.
"Let's go." Angelo commanded, leading me over to the mansion.
I examined the walls, they glinted in the bright lighting. I walked over into one of the rooms, my eyes widening at the discovery.
It was a bag— a bag big enough to be slightly bigger than my hand..
Sedatives.
"Kuya. Take note of this." I said, carefully putting on a black glove and picking it up.
Angelos eyebrows furrowed, his eyes examined the bag as if he was counting every grain in it.
Suddenly, I heard soft footsteps coming from behind me.
"Jay!" Eman shouted. "Switch of plans. I'm working with Angelo today— sorry I didn't tell you sooner! You're gonna be questioning the suspects."
My eyes fluttered, "Why the sudden change?!"
"Boss wanted us to switch for today— he didn't tell me much on why.. but— good luck!" Eman patted my back, speed walking towards Aries.

"Take a seat." I said firmly, not taking my eyes off of Keifer.
"Where were you the night Zoren Santos died?"
Keifer smirked. "In your heart."
I leaned back, looking more petrified than professional. I quickly gained back my posture, straightening my look.
"Now is not the time for games. Tell me."
"I was in the living room, until I heard my brother running down the stairs. And before I knew it, Yuri was running down as well. Then— I walked in the room. Zoren was dead already."
Keifers jaw tightened, as if he was holding all the secrets he has in his mouth. I tapped the table with my pen, looking at Keifer.
"What were you doing there? Why?"
"I was discussing buisness plans."
"Wh-" knock knock knock
"Hold up.." I muttered, opening the door.
